Dark Tournament Stories

Lucida – Well! How's this 4 ya? The REAL dark tournament stories! What you DON'T see in the DVDs!

Kurama – You are strange….to say the least.

Hiei – Can it fox! She'll put us in a pair together if you annoy her!

Lucida - glares just because you told MY fox to 'can it' you will be punished. And besides, these are TRUE! (sort of!) and so if I were to put you in a pair, it wouldn't matter, because you already ARE one! So ha! smiles Besides, I think you'd like it. Huh?

Hiei - growls

Lucida – That proves it!

Kurama – can we just get this over with?

Lucida – Of course sweetie. bats eyes

After their little experience with team Rokuyouki's members Rinku and Zeru, the team settled into their rooms. Yusuke and Kuwabara sharing one room with two beds, and Kurama and Hiei sharing the other room. The girls were in rooms down the hall, including the Masked Fighter. Kuwabara and Kurama had to drag the still sleeping Yusuke to the bed so that he wouldn't sleep on the couch all night. Kuwabara had fallen asleep almost immediately. Kurama and Hiei on the other hand, were talking.

Hiei was sitting on his bed looking out of the window.

"What's wrong Hiei? You seem troubled." Kurama asked, eyeing Hiei over his book.

"Hn." Was Hiei's common response. Kurama shrugged and went back to the book. "Kurama?" He asked suddenly.

"Hm?" The fox put his book down.

"Have you ever been in this tournament before?" The smaller demon asked softly.

"Yes," Kurama nodded. "When I was Yoko, but that was a long time ago."

"Before you met me?"

"Yes. About three hundred years before I met you." (a/n: for all of you who think Kurama's about 300 years old, you're wrong! He's well over 2,000. If you don't believe me watch the whole series! All 32 discs, you'll see what I mean.)

"So, the other opponents sneaking into our room was nothing uncommon?" Kurama pondered what Hiei was thinking.

"Did they shake you up?" He asked carefully.

"No!" Hiei snapped. "But, that one…Zeru…" Kurama stayed silent. If Hiei wanted to talk to him, he would. Hiei pulled out the coffee cup that had been sliced in half on their table. Kurama sighed and picked up his book again. Hiei studied the coffee cup carefully. It looked like a clean cut, but…one edge, was….melted? Hiei studied it carefully, then sighed and placed it on the bedside table. Then, he got up and undressed down to his pants, the ones that Kurama had gotten for him a long time ago and slipped his boots off. (a/n: drool Kurama's hot and everything, but so is HIEI! burns herself sizzling!) He placed the clothes over the arm of the chair and turned to Kurama, who had also gotten ready to sleep in a similar fashion with only his white pants on. (a/n: Sorry, I couldn't resist!)

"Kurama, put the book down." Hiei ordered, sitting on the edge of his bed looking at the fox. Kurama continued to read. Hiei sighed, walked over and pulled the book away from the fox. "Stop." He snapped, closing the book. Kurama looked to him impassively.

"You could have at least put the book mark in the page." He whispered. Hiei rolled his eyes and walked over to his bed, climbing underneath the covers.

"Go to sleep Kurama." He sighed. "If Yusuke doesn't wake up, I don't plan on leaving the fate of the fights up to the idiot and the masked fighter. You and I will have to win them."

"So, you trust Yusuke?" Kurama smiled.

"Shut up." Hiei turned away from the fox, pulling the covers up to his neck. Kurama grinned, pestering Hiei was fun in its own way. Kurama turned out the lights and also slipped under the covers, falling into an uneasy sleep.

Lucida – so? How was that? Okay.
