"Finally we meet again," purred Catarina. "I need your head and quickly. I will play no more games with you."
"Playing games!" Yusuke gaped. "You got me a weeks worth of detention with Takenaka!"
"I do not care about you pitiful school problems!" Catarina hissed as she released her claws and went for Yusuke's face. She fought Yusuke with a fury she never knew. All she could think about was losing her daughter forever.
"I will not lose her!" she screamed as she continued to claw at Yusuke. He took some damage before he got a punch into her gut. She returned his punch with a knee to his chin.
Kurama stood on the side line. He wasn't sure what he should do. Part of him, the Youko part anyway, wanted to help her behead Yusuke and save the girl. The other half, his human half of course, wanted to help Yusuke and get him to join forces with Catarina to hunt down the demon and kill him. Why was it so hard to decided what to do?
"You going to let them continue to beat the crap out of each other?" asked Hiei. He had been watching Yusuke for awhile. Botan had made him just incase Catarina decided to show up. And he was enjoying watching Yusuke right now. The girl refuse to give an inch this time, and Yusuke was getting an ass kicking. It had been at least a week since he last watched a good ass kicking.
Hiei stepped to the side and let Yusuke's body fly by. Catarina had just kicked him and he flew a good five feet, and she had dash to jump onto of him and continue her assault.
"She may just be more violent then Yusuke could ever hope to be," Hiei smirked. He had never seen a girl fight with such ferocity, she was down right vicious.
"This is nothing," Youko said, taking over Kurama's body again. "When we had our fight it lasted three straight days. Blood was flowing out of our bodies the last day."
"What happened on the last day?" asked Hiei curiously. He rarely ever got to talk with Youko, especailly when he appeared to be in a good mood.
"She's a half breed, and her human breeding made her lose," he smirked.
"And then?"
"Then I took her back to my home and had a maid nurse her back to health," he laughed thinking back to those long lost years. He held a certain respect for her that he couldn't kill her when she had passed out from starvation. She was a worthy opponent, and had planned to fight her once she was back to health. Unfortunately for that plan he had fallen, and fallen hard for the young woman.
"So how old is she," Hiei joked.
"78 years old," he replied. He was watching the fight before him. Yusuke had gotten some hits in, and Catarina's left eye was starting to swell. Yet she wasn't backing down an inch. Yusuke on the other hand looked like a bruised swollen tomato. He had claw marks down both his cheeks, and a criss-cross pattern across his chest. Not to mention his jaw look broke.
Kurama decided Yusuke had taken enough damage. He took the rose from his hair.
"Rose Whip!" he screamed as he transformed the rose into his whip. He whipped it at Catarina. It wrapped around her waist and he pulled her off of Yusuke. "Enough, you have beaten him enough!"
"No he still has his head!" she shrieked from her confinements. She struggled against the whip, her mind a blur, as she had given in to all her emotions. "He must DIE!"
"Enough Catarina!" screamed Youko. He hated seeing his mate in this state of mind. She was the cold calculating assassin, not the blood lusting lunatic he saw before him. "Why not allow us to help you rescue your daughter," he said trying his plea again. "Yusuke will get to keep his head, and you'll have everything you want back."
"Everything I want," she said snapping back to attention. "I can never have anything I want! My mate is dead, I'm barely alive and letting a scum of a human control me! Worst of all Catalina is in danger and I am almost powerless to help her!"
"Let us help you," Hiei said. Kurama looked at Hiei surprised that he would offer assistance. She is your mate after all. said Hiei's voice across Kurama's mind. Kurama knew Hiei was a true friend, even if Hiei would never admit to it.
"Why would you help me," Catarina laughed. "After all I did just try to kill your friend over there."
Hiei and Kurama remained silent. What could they say to convince her besides the truth? The truth wasn't ready to come out of Kurama's mouth, and Hiei would never reveal the truth. Luckily Yusuke stepped in at this time.
"Because they want me to keep my head," said Yusuke rubbing his jaw. "I will help you too. I doubt my jaw could take another punch from you."
Catarina was speechless. Never in her life had anyone offered her help. In fact she had never known any kind of kindness, hope, or joy since Youko, except the joy Catalina brought to her. Her life was full of pain and sorrow, and the occasonal job, pretty much it was empty. She was on the verge of tears, then something happen to throw her over the edge.
"You betray master!" hissed a Shadow demon. "No good assassin betray master! Girl gone forever now!"
Catarina felt furry like she never felt before. No one accused her of betray, especially when she had not even confirmed her betrayal. Although she was thinking about it, she had not decided. She had enough of the lousy Shadow demons.
Bringing out her fan blades and making short work of the Rose Whip, she lunged at the demon slicing it two. More Shadow demons appeared, and attacked her. She had cut down five more before one stabbed her with a knife in her stomach. She felt the dull pain and had cut down six more before her vision started to blur. She had lost to much blood. She fell to her knees and felt the black surround her. Was this to truly be her last fight. No! Catalina! She fought back again. She felt every punch that connected with her already sore body. Two more fell before the darkness consumed her.
