Kurama's Brother continued

Kurama reached into his hair to grab his Rose Whip, but the other Youko blasted him away with a green ball of fire projected from his mouth.

"This is ridiculous, I'll end it now!" yelled Hiei as he dashed toward the Youko, sword unsheathed.

This isn't your fight, Koorime, said the Youko as one of his flaming tails struck Hiei's heart, if you survive, remember to stay with your own battles. Kurama returned, and with no hesitation, made several explosions of rose pedals, followed by several darts toward his 'brother' and struck his tails.

Fool! Said the Youko, You should have aimed for my head! And with that he leaped forward and felt a tug backward. He fell to the ground cursing and looked back to discover his tails were nailed to the tree by the darts.

"If you try to pull the stump out of the ground, I'll have time to kill you, if you destroy the tree, you'll destroy your tails, and I believe your tails expand from the tip, which is a serious setback," said Kurama jumping down from the tree, "You lose."

You wish, Kurama, but you can't kill me,taunted the Youko, You don't even know why I continue to hunt you even after my failed assassination. Anyway,I'll escape from the tree easily. The Youko's tails explode with green fire, and the rose darts burn to ash along with a large chunk of the tree.

I'll tell you why I still desire your blood spilt, said the Youko, after I failed to kill you, I felt I needed better training and discipline to defeat even my younger brother. Ever since I have been training and training just to prove to myself I could kill my brother. I reported my story to the Makai leaders, but they laughed at the thought that I could not defeat you. I was finally taken in by a fire demon who trained me to be about 70 times more powerful than yourself. One day, Yomi came and fought the fire demon to the death, and he won. I absorbed the fire aura released from the corpse and killed the murderer of my master. I adapted the fire to my own discipline, and it turned green. I sent Eight Hands the Demon to test your power in the new world, and I received no report from him. So I went to the Human World and found his filleted corpse. I later discovered of your ½ demon friend, Yusuke Urameshi, who arrested you after you joined Hiei and Gouki. You then killed Genbu, Roto, Gama, Touya, Karasu, and cursed Elder Togoru to an eternity of suffering, and illusions of pain and difficulty. Through this information, I have had telepathic training against all of these foes, and I have completely annihilated each one within 10 seconds each. After said training, I decided to send Balrogar to scout you out and challenge you. He thought he could kill you, but I knew he couldn't, and of course he found you, so I followed the release of lightning aura he sent out to a coffee shop outside the forest, where I could meet you. Now you will finally die, Youko Kurama, Kistune thief of Makai! The fox lunged forward, and then, he fell along with three, cut-off, smoking tails falling behind him. He looked behind and saw six still flaming tails, and a very disturbed fire demon called Hiei.

"Stupid Fox," said Hiei smiling, "as long as I'm alive, you cannot kill Kurama or any other brother you betrayed for a small bounty. Kurama, you idiot, take a bite from the Fruit of Past Lives, and become a demon, before this fool decapitates-" six flaming tails knock Hiei aside.

'I forgot,' thought Kurama, taking the fruit from his pocket, 'well, here goes nothing…' Kurama took a bite from the small fruit called the Fruit of Past Lives to relive his Demon Form…
