Aboard the ship on the main deck
"I think they are talking about us," mused JR casting a gaze over the other four teams aboard. Even from their position a few feet away Scorpia could easily decipher the animated gestures and whispers.
"Seems they plan to gang up on us" murmured Quentin barely noticing they were now surrounded with the edge of the deck at their backs. Balancing on the rail Gabb looked over the crowd "Shall we get started a team apiece".
Hefting the large tube Gabb smiled realizing that he was facing the blue demon from before. "If you're a member of Scorpia than you should have no problem defeating us" suggested the blue demon twirling his club.
"Hn beholds the spear of the dragon," shouted Brandon throwing up the tube while catching the weapon that fell from the talisman-covered case. Easily nine feet long the spear seemed to be made of some type of large bones and ablaze with a purple flame. "Taste the power that is the dragons flame". Before his opponents realized it Gabb had cut them in half and incinerated the remains.
"Fat man you're all mine" spat a ninja carrying a katana. Taking a moment to gather his energy JR merely smiled "See that's the thing about me I can increase my muscle mass and strength by infusing my muscles with spirit energy". As he was speaking the entire ship paused to look at the strange scene unfolding on the port side of the ship. Glowing with a faint green aura JR began to mold his skin and muscle into a veritable armor of muscle. Not to be side tracked the ninja thrust his sword with considerable speed only to have it shatter on the now rock solid armored stomach. "Look and know you died at the hands of Slash. Level 3 should do" spat JR grabbing the ninja in one massive hand. Gabb laughed observing the scene from his post on top of his spear. "What a show off level 2 would have been more than enough" Vaulting forward with a speed one of his size shouldn't possess JR landed in the midst of the group using the unfortunate soul in his grasp JR bludgeon the group to death with the unfortunate soul caught in his grasp before ripping him in half and casting him overboard.
"Seems as if we will be the one to bring down these Scorpia imposters," noted one group gazing at the remains of the other teams "Formation Alpha". Almost as if he was oblivious to his charging opposition Earls quickly secured himself with the chains and locks he carried. Throwing on the last loop and securing the last padlock, an immense black lock covered in talismans, just as the group attacked Earls demeanor completely changed. Yelling out a maniacal cry Earls blew off the locks and chains with a great burst of dark spirit energy.
"You fools you dare attack the leader of Scorpia. Allow me to show you nothings what it means to have true power. HaaHaHahahhahhahaaaha" Still laughing Earls lashed out at his still air born opponents with what seemed to be pincers produced from the folds of his coat.
"What is this? …" cried one opponent before being crushed by the pinchers. "Since you asked I will show you" replied Earls giggling with a sick smile plastered on face. Shuddering with a repressed laugh Earls threw open his jacket exposing the swirling dark vortex where his body should have been
"Come to me". Still maintaining his smile Earls drew the unfortunate souls into the fathoms of his jacket grinning as a faint scream echoed from within. Looking at the remains of the teams who had fought against Scorpia the remaining survivors' last glimmer of hope faded as quickly as the other teams had been defeated.
"We've got one chance. There is one who is unarmed I say we hold him hostage and use him to barter our way off this ship." Animated by this plan of action the last survivor gave one last spirited charge toward the one unarmed member of Scorpia. Casting the slightest of glances toward his approaching opponents Quentin appeared to lose interest and looked instead at the discarded chains which lay covered in blood after Earls' initial attack.
"Since the rest of my team took the time took the time to explain their "gifts" I suppose it would be rude of me not to do the same. As you saw from Earls' attack those are no ordinary chains especially when they get a taste of blood. Gentleman may I introduce you to the bounds of hell. Snaking across the floor in a serpentine fashion the chains reached Quentin and began to revolve at his feet sporting spikes that covering every one of the innumerable links. Turning around to face his foes with glowing eyes Quentin set the chains upon them with just a nod. Whizzing through air at a startling speed the chains were merely flashes of light as they tore through the last survivors. Returning to Quentin's side the chains sidled up to their master writhing around as if waiting for something. Flashing a knowing smile at the barbed links Quentin obliged his pets "Yes it's alright go ahead and eat my pets" mused Quentin. Given permission the chains spread across the deck of the ship drawing any remaining scraps of flesh into it's intricate knots.
In the observation room.
"Of all the fights I've seen that was definitely one of the most brutal" remarked Yusuke Urameshi glaring at the screen.
"I agree Yusuke those boys are not normal even by demon standards" replied Kurama pondering the scene. Don't you agree Hiei"
"Hn" replied the irritable fire demon.
"Why are we even on this ship" shouted Kuwabara.
Jumping on Kuwabara's head Yusuke reminded him "Because somebody had to take that stray cat to the shelter but not before giving it a bath and petting for an hour and then getting lost and making us miss the ship".
Nursing his new black eye Kuwabara went back to study the screen. "I swear when I look at them I don't see regular teenagers. Like their energy isn't theirs. Sitting back in his chair the kitsune agreed
"Yes when I look at them I see something else. Coming over to the screen Yusuke examined the four youths. "This JR character's energy signature is just like Togoruo's when I fought him in the finals."
Gazing at the screen Hiei saw something that made him interested flashing then reappearing in a chair in front of the screen. "One of the few memories I have of my mother is her stories of my father and his master who was said to have had a spear made from the bones of the original dragon of the darkness flame."
"It seems they know me as well said Kurama "those chains followed the exact attack pattern of my rose whip".
"So that only leaves bug man" said Yusuke. "Guys I think they know we're here, interrupted Kuwabara, Look".
All the members of team Scorpia stood smiling behind a note written in flames on the deck reading "Enjoy the show detective"?
"Botan come here" yelled Yusuke at the air.
"Detective what do you want I was busy" shouted the furious ferry to the underworld. "Shut up and tell me every thing you can about these boys on this tape" retorted the Spirit Detective throwing Botan a cassette of the events that happened aboard the ship.
"I won't … until you apologize for being mean" "Yessh I'm sorry now will you do it" "Please Botan" inserted Kurama "I would be grateful"
"That Yusuke is manners goodbye". And with that the grim reaper disappeared in a flash of light and blue hair.
"The ship is docking" announced the short registration demon from the outside of the door.
"Uh, Urameshi" said Kuwabara still staring at the screen "where is did those Scorpia kids go."
"Of all the dirty tricks" shouted Urameshi noting the absence of the teens for the first time. "I wonder where they went" pondered Kurama projecting an image of deep thought.
