Morals

"And Team Urameshi gains another victory! Let the next round begin!"

The pale leader of Team Kokoro instantly accepted this invitation as he leapt into the center of the ring. Before his white boots even tapped the surface of the stones female demons all throughout the ring were screaming. His silver face glowed under the attention and he brought his arms up to wave at his adoring fans. When he was finished he returned his deep green eyes to the team standing opposite of him.

With two of their team mates badly injured there were only four possibilities left. Frankly he hoped that the young girl would battle him. After all she was very attractive which would mean that she would be a fantastic addition to his harem. But she didn't even glance in his direction. Sighing he studied the other three. Naturally the rest were male.

Kuwabara noticed the way the handsome demon had admired Bara's body. Disgusted he made his way to the center of the ring before the other two had a chance to move. This creature was nothing but a playboy who deserved a severe beating.

"Alright everyone we now have Kuwabara versus Sume! Ready? Begin!"

Sume frowned. "Just my luck. Rather than your female companion I get stuck with an ugly brute like you."

"Hey I didn't come here to get insulted by you so let's fight!"

"As you wish," the demon yawned, "Rage of Imps."

Behind him an enormous gate appeared. Slowly the doors opened while Sume inspected his nails. Once they were widely spread, a horde of imps fell out onto the carrot top's body. He vanished from sight giving the imp time to turn back to his fans. They knew that he had just won with his weakest attack sending them all into fits of laughter. But then they fell silent. Confused he glanced over his shoulder at the pile.

All of his underlings had vanished to leave behind Kuwabara with just some of his clothing torn instead of flesh. In his hand was his infamous Rei Ken. With it he ran towards the demon only to fall forward when his target disappeared at the last moment. Again the imps appeared. This time Sume watched carefully to see what would happen.

Just a second later the orange sword had pierced every single imp. As one they vanished leaving the stunned fighter staring at his gate.

"You are amazing ningen. Most of your kind would have perished after two of those attacks. Perhaps I should start fighting seriously now."

Without further hesitation, the imp took the giant boomerang he strapped to his back and dropped it on its side. A large hole was formed from the many spikes along the side. Then he hefted it into the air before launching the weapon towards the other male's body. Now riding on it were several figures created from his own energy.

Kuwabara watched it carefully. He could see the energy that controlled it which would mean him running useless. Although if he stood his ground he would most likely be sliced into a million pieces. It was a lose/lose situation. With this in mind he moved his sword before his body.

Sume laughed at the sight in front of him and turned to glance at Bara. She was now watching the fight with emotionless eyes. Just what was she thinking right now? But his thoughts were quickly interrupted as a fist connected with his face. After straightening his blue and white fighter's robes he shoved blue hair from his face. The ningen had not only destroyed his favorite weapon but he had also bruised his face.

"Your fight is with me," the carrot top growled, "Don't forget that."

A smirk crossed the pale lips. "Oh there is little need to worry about that. I need to punish you for what you just did to me."

Another punch to his face caught him offguard though. "The first was for staring at Bara. This one was for insulting every female in the world with your playboy breath."

The imp laughed then turned to face the man. "How adorable! A human with a code! Isn't it just the sweetest thing you've ever seen?"

Small brown eyes lit up with anger. His code was more important to him than many things in this world. And while he may be getting old now he wasn't about to just sit there while it was insulted. Throwing the imp away from his body he carefully summoned a large amount of spirit energy into his hand.

In his mind he could picture his wife. Her entire body had lit up when she had heard about his beliefs. Honorable, she'd called them, wonderful. Yukina loved him for the rules he had created for himself. By spitting upon those rules, Sume had spit upon her. And that was something he could never forgive anyone of doing.

Seconds later the shuriken had smashed into the imp's body causing it to shrink to its original size. Groaning the demon closed his eyes. Chikiu announced the countdown. Kuwabara was the winner.

The women in the crowd hissed in anger as the judge brought her hand into the air. "I need the next fighters!" The final three of Team Kokoro answered this call. Shocked the green woman turned to face the other team.

Hiei joined them in the ring and was surprised to find Hoshi by his side. Curious he glanced at the boy then his sister. The question was an obvious one to which the teen gave a clear answer.

For as long as I possibly can, I will make sure that my sister doesn't fight.

"Let the final fight between Urameshi and Kokoro begin!"


Next Time on Outnumbered:

It is Bara this time and my brother is fighting alongside Hiei against a fox demon and two ice demons, one which happens to also be half shadow as well. The three females work well together as a unit. Will our two fighters be able to take them on alone?
