Experimental Obsessions

Chapter 26

Only about an hour after Nissa had passed out on the ground the gang would find her. Yuuske blinked a bit seeing Gremlin covering her body almost looking like a shield. Nissa's energy was hidden or she didn't have any, as that's what had made it so hard for them to find her. Hiei walked forward and poked Gremlin who formed sharp spikes causing Hiei to step back a few steps and he sighed out, as Kurama walked up beside him, "Looks like Gremlin thinks were a threat to her." He stated as Kuwabara looked at the shield as he crossed his arms over his chest, as he was still mad about earlier; Yuuske narrowed his eyes at him, "I wonder why." He stated in a sarcastic tone. Nissa was sleeping peacefully in a ball completely dry while it was still raining just slightly, her tail swaying softly as her longer ears twitched a bit to the noise a bit. "Well how do you suggest we go about getting her out?" Kurama asked looking to Hiei who shrugged his shoulders a bit while his arms were still crossed over his chest.

They would ponder a bit in the rain for what seemed like a half hour, Gremlin pulsated and started glowing a bright purple as Nissa opened her eyes suddenly but didn't move from her spot at all. Hiei and Kurama looked over to Gremlin feeling the energy followed by Yuuske and then moments later Kuwabara looked confused before looking to the glowing Gremlin shield. Hiei narrowed his eyes seeing Nissa suddenly sit up her eyes back to normal but glowing as she stared out into the forest line away from them as she had her eyes set on something no one could see. Nissa put her hand on Gremlin causing Gremlin to shrink down and wrap around her wrist in the form of what seemed to be a serpent with wings. Nissa stood up on her feet and sighed out before closing her eyes and turned to look at the others as she opened her eyes with a small smile, "Hi guys." She stated and noted that Kuwabara looked away in a pissed off matter. She sighed out and shook her head, "We should get back to the others." She stated in a calm but serious tone as she walked passed the others and held her side for a moment as she made her way back to the temple. The guys blinked and exchanged looks before following her quickly to catch up to her. Nissa yawned out a bit and covered her mouth with her free hand that Gremlin had been on.

Back at the temple the girls were discussing what had happened in the mall and what not in the living room. Angel was smiling but her look quickly went blank as she stood up suddenly and walked to the back door and out to the porch, "Angel?" Botan called out but when no response or change happened the others looked over seeing Angel walk to the porch causing them to all get up and follow her outside as she was walking down the steps and stopped right in front of the forest trees. Angel looked into the forest with her eyes narrowed as Shizuru walked up behind her with her hands in her pockets after she slid a cigarette in between her lips, "What's wrong?" Keiko asked as she walked up beside Shizuru and looked at the forest before Angel and then Shizuru again. Yukina walked up on the other side of Angel and looked into the forest as did Shizuru, "We're not alone." Yukina stated in a soft tone as Botan walked up behind Angel and looked to the forest.

"We should get inside." Keiko suddenly stated as she was getting a bit worried about things and to be completely honest she was scared. Botan nodded looking at Keiko, "I agree." She looked at Yukina who nodded and looked down at Angel who didn't seem to budge at all. "Come on Kiddo." Shizuru stated looking from the forest down to Angel and touched her shoulder softly. Angel looked up at her, as her wings would beat hard on her back as she glared back at the forest as if saying she wasn't going to leave. She stepped forward as her wings opened up and she looked as if she was going to hold her ground as the other's blink a bit. Shizuru looked at Botan, "Get the other's inside." She stated as she looked back to Angel and tried to figure out what was going on as Botan nodded, "Come on girl's lets get inside." She ordered in a nice way making Keiko nod a bit as she headed inside with Botan, "Come on Yukina." Botan called out as Yukina looked back at her before shaking her head. "I won't just leave Angel and Shizuru here." She stated as Botan nodded a bit in understanding. "Shizuru…" Yukina spoke as she looked to the forest. Shizuru smiled over at Yukina, "Don't worry everything will be fine." She stated as she looked to Angel and the forest also.

Botan and Keiko were sitting inside staring out at the others as the watched hoping nothing would happen, as Botan would use her compact to calling Koenma. "Sir something's not right…" Botan started, as they would talk a bit about what was happening before hanging up with him as a large explosion went off behind them.

Back with the gang Nissa was leading them back to the temple before she suddenly stopped dead in her tracks as Yuuske's compact went off making him jump from forgetting about even having it. Nissa glared in front of her catching a familiar scent of a mix of rain, metal and death moving quickly towards the temple. She didn't even pay attention to what was being said by Koenma to Yuuske before she bolted towards the temple causing Hiei to look quickly at where she was and running after her also catching the scent but didn't think much of it at the time. Kurama looked at the two disappearing before narrowing his eyes as he heard the Koenma said that the girls were in danger causing Kurama, Yuuske and Kuwabara to run towards the temple after Yuuske had shut the compact.

Nissa growled out softly as the snake Gremlin tightened around her arm and formed large sharp spikes ready for a battle. She wasn't near the ability she was at before the dart had got her but she didn't care to think about that now as she ran at top speed to the temple hearing an explosion and screams, she felt an energy raising that made her bite her bottom lip as she ran faster, "Fuck!" she growled out as she knew Hiei was right at her heels also going near his top pace but sped up also hearing that Yukina screamed from the explosion earlier.

Angel looked down at her feet as something rolled in front of her causing her eyes to go wide as she pushed Shizuru hard enough to send her out of the explosion as she turned around and her wings went huge as she covered Yukina as the beeping bomb went off behind them causing Angel to bleed and Yukina to scream out. Angel's wings were bleeding at the base as silver blood dripped onto the ground from the barbwire tightening on her larger wings, when the blood it the ground it would freeze as she stood up and coughed a bit before looking behind her to see nothing but a sharp toothy grin in the shadows of the trees on the ground. "Angel! Yukina!" Shizuru yelled out as she got up and ran to them just to be knocked back as something came out quickly from the forest where the toothy sharp grin was coming from. Angel stood in front of Yukina her wings spread out as if to create a wall between the enemy and Yukina. Angel had a dark look on her face that didn't even look like the normal Angel as she held a glare on the grinning figure that started to chuckle evilly and eerie like. "I've come to play…" It spoke out in a dark eerie way as it began to step out of the darkness.

The rain would begin to come down harder as the figure stepped out revealing a woman that seemed to be 19 years old, stood about 5'9" tall her skin was a gray dead color with stitches on her sides, her hair was short, wild and messy as it covered where her eyes should be casting a shadow over them. The figure wore a black tube top of sorts, a pair of tight black pants that were ripped a bit that had two thick white strips from the knee to her ankles, a pair of white and black combat boots but the more odd part about this woman's outfit was the long flowing black and white striped sleeves that were sown into her skin keeping them on her arms and also the black and white striped long scarf around her neck that was also sown into her skin. Angel moved a bit into a better stance as she tightened her hands into fists as she glared at the woman, "You don't like playing with me anymore 9054?" The woman asked and grinned evilly again as she brought her arm back and swung it in front of her at Angel and Yukina, "Then I'll make you both play!" She laughed out psychotically as three large finger like blades came out of her sleeves and Angels wings flared out as the barbwire that was making her bleed seemed to get a mind of their own as the came out from around Angel and wrapped around the woman's arm and stopped her arm dead in its tracks. The woman grinned and yanked back towards her making Angel's feet slide across the ground closer to the woman no matter how hard she tried to stop from moving forward as her wings flapped hard and looked in pain as the woman kept pulling.

Angel began to panic a bit as she looked around as she looked down at the woman's feet and more barbwire came out and wrapped around the woman's ankles causing the woman to laugh a bit as she stopped pulling and with her free arm she sent her arm towards her another pair of blade like fingers towards her under that sleeve also. Angel closed her eyes tightly as she held up her arms in defense the last thing she saw was the shine of the blade before a chuckle was a heard from the woman making Angel open her eyes seeing Nissa in front of her and glaring at the other woman as Gremlin was protecting them both as it formed a shield over all of them. "Well look at who decided to join the party." The woman stated before laughing and letting go of Angel's barbwire and pulling back her other arm from Gremlin as Gremlin stayed as a wall between Nissa and the woman. Hiei appeared behind Angel as he helped Yukina up and told her to get Shizuru and her inside now; as the other guys came out of the forest Kurama pulling out his rose turning it into a rose whip, Kuwabara's spirit sword in hand and Yuuske aimed his spirit gun at the intruder as Hiei pulled out his katana as he looked to Angel who was still standing there. Nissa looked back over her shoulder to Angel, "Get inside… Now!" She stated in a harsh serious tone. The woman started chuckling, "Oh this should be interesting." She spoke before grinning big and dangerously as Angel let go of her ankles and her wings went back down as she ran to where the girls were.

Nissa watched her run back before looking back to the woman who started speaking, "Let's play 397." the woman chuckled out causing a shiver to run down Nissa's spine and the other's as they were now standing behind Nissa ready to fight. Nissa grinned a bit as she glared at her, "Let's Twizzler." She growled out as she looked back at the others, "Don't underestimate this one." She growled out before Gremlin dropped the shield and wrapped back around Nissa's arm as Twizzler stepped back into the forest unseen now causing her to growl out. Nissa's tail flickered behind her dangerously as she knew what were to happen next as it suddenly became darker around them as if it were night time but even darker as the moments passed. Nissa's eyes would glow brightly as she looked back at the others seeing their aura's glowing around them and seeing their body heat helped knowing who was where. "What the hell is going on?" Yuuske growled out in frustration. "Setting the scene." Was heard from all around them causing them to look around not sure where Twizzler was, Kuwabara and Yuuske put their backs together as did Hiei and Kurama causing Nissa grin and shook her head as she looked forward feeling something coming at her as she jumped back and flipped in the air with a growl as she couldn't see Twizzler's body temperature but she knew she wouldn't since she wasn't alive per say.

"Don't use your sight it won't help at all." Nissa called out as she dodged another hit towards her as she growled out in the air now as she grinned a bit feeling the movement beside her as she turned and her fingers grew and there was a sickening laughter that came from beside her as she knew Twizzler had been hit as she felt the black blood rolling over her fingers. "Come now 397 you'll have to do better then that." Was heard as the laughter continued as Twizzler swung around and knocked Nissa back causing Nissa to gasp out and groan as her back his something hard as it felt like a tree as it fell over making a crashing sound. "Nissa!" They would yell out hearing the crash and the psychotic laughter after it. "You're not trying that hard 397! Shall your allies be my play toys?" Twizzler chuckled causing Nissa to get up and quickly appear in front of them. Nissa looked back as she heard Yuuske yell out and saw him fall forward as he held his arm in pain causing the others to tense up as Kuwabara turned around to help his friend up and then fell down too in pain.

"TWIZZLER!" Nissa yelled out in a dangerous tone feeling herself losing control a bit as she growled out showing her fangs. At Nissa's response to what she had done Twizzler began laughing more as she felt movement to the side of her as Kurama sent his rose whip at Twizzler causing a hiss to come from Twizzler who hadn't expected to be hit at all. "I see the other two might be a bit more difficult." She sounded disappointed yet excited at the same time as she went towards Hiei now who held up his katana to block her massive blades as Twizzler got close to his face and grinned a toothy sharp grin again and laughed before he pushed her away from him causing her to go back into the darkness. She looked down at the glowing Gremlin on her arm before throwing Gremlin behind her to the others who turned into the shield from before and got large spikes as Twizzler came down at Yuuske and Kuwabara who were just getting up and growled out in pain as a spike grazed her body and caused her to look towards Nissa with a grin again as Gremlin glew brightly showing the area around the who place. "That's more like it 397." She laughed and jumped towards Nissa who prepared to defend herself but noticed Kurama's rose whip wrapping around Twizzler's torso and tossed her to the side with a growl escaping her lips. Nissa grinned a bit and Hiei smirked a bit as Twizzler seemed a bit irritated as a frown was on her face as she stood up and fell back into the darkness.

Nissa looked at Kurama who smiled at her before she looked at Hiei as she had a look of shock on her face, as she was still not use to having people to defend her. "Come here!" Was suddenly heard as out of the darkness Twizzler's arms came out and wrapped around Nissa's waist tightly and started pulling her into the darkness, Nissa's eyes became wide as she started trying to back up and fight it but it wasn't working as Twizzler's laughed rung through the area around them. "Nissa!" Everyone would scream as Gremlin let Yuuske and Kuwabara out who ran towards her quickly, Hiei was the first one there holding Nissa now by the waist also and Kurama wrapped his rose whip around her waist under Twizzler's arms, not causing any harm to Nissa though as he started pulling also, Kuwabara started helping pull on the rose whip as did Yuuske. Laughter was still heard as this didn't help at all as Nissa was still being dragged into the darkness. Gremlin landed on the ground feeling a little too weak to help its master as it watched seeing her grabbing on to Hiei's waist and attempting to not let go no matter what. Gremlin kept aglow though so they could still see the world around them the best that they could. Nissa's tail went between her legs, as she was slightly frightened of the darkness that held Twizzler as her eyes glew brightly, "Come play…" She could hear ringing into the darkness.

Flashes of her past ran through her head as she remembered the things that happened in the darkness causing her to close her eyes tightly, "N-No!" She screamed out right as Yuuske let go and pointed his finger to the darkness, "To hell with this! Spirit Gun!" He yelled out as a large energy ball burst out of his finger lighting up the darkness as Twizzler let go to dodge the energy causing them to all fall backwards. Hiei kept his arms around Nissa, as he was feeling more protective of her as Kurama pulled his rose whip away from Nissa's waist and stood up with Kuwabara who had also fallen now. Hiei stood up with Nissa still in his arms as he set her down and glared at the darkness getting his katana at the ready again. Nissa still had her eyes closed and didn't move at all as Gremlin glew brighter and brighter making the area more visible from the temple to the forests edge. "Are you okay Nissa?" Yuuske called out but they all felt energy raising from her causing them to glance at her as her hair started stand up a bit and her tail swayed behind her violently as she suddenly grinned, "I'm fine." She whispered out her demonic voice taking more over. "Oh now the big bad side comes out!" Twizzler laughed and taunted Nissa who opened her eyes and glared into the forest's darkness her eyes were pitch black and violet sparks running through her eyes again like they were earlier.

Hiei noticed this and raised an eyebrow, "Onna?" He questioned as if he knew what would be to come from this. She turned her head to him as if to show she was looking at him. "Don't worry…" She stated and grinned eerie like as she took a step forward towards the darkness. "Are you ready to play now 397?" Twizzler taunted as Nissa laughed evilly, "Bring it." She egged on, as she knew the others would become nervous at this but at least they weren't in the dark. Nissa looked down at her hands as the same energy orbs from earlier formed in her hands and she squeezed them hard as she jumped into the air as Twizzler jumped out of the darkness at her and missed her creating a crater where Nissa had been standing and Hiei jumped back with the others. Nissa grin grew seeing Twizzler as she threw the orbs at her the first one missed causing a small electric explosion while the other one hit Twizzler directly as Twizzler was jumping in the air at Nissa; when the orb hit her it went inside Twizzler's body causing Twizzler to fall the ground and scream out as black and purple electricity ran through her body violently.

Twizzler hit the ground causing dust to come up and laughter to be heard shortly after as Twizzler stood up and swayed just slightly, "Oh how I miss this." She stated in a creepy way as Kuwabara ran at her with his spirit sword ready to swing at her, he yelled as he got close causing Twizzler to turn and face him but disappear when he slashed at her as he stood there looking for her Nissa landed on the ground. After a moment Twizzler was seen coming down towards Kuwabara to land on him but was wrapped up in Kurama's rose whip within moments causing her to laugh out and struggle a bit but felt the whip tightening tighter the more she struggled. Laughter erupted from her as they surrounded her looking completely serious and ready to kill her. "Ahhh pain…" Twizzler whispered out as if it were a massage and Hiei put his katana to her throat, "You're caught now!" Kuwabara stated loudly and proudly causing Twizzler to tilt her head a bit as her grin went away and she seemed confused, "I am?" She asked before grinning as her blades came up and sliced through the rose whip like it were butter and swung at all of them knocking them back with only their clothing getting cut. Nissa was still aways away as she watched this and glared as Twizzler went to swing at them again as a long spike came out of her palm of her hand and stabbed Twizzler in the back causing the already bleeding Twizzler to growl out at the pain and stop dead in her tracks. "Remember why you're here!" Nissa yelled out and glared at Twizzler but her hand was bleeding where the spike had come from.

Twizzler got a wicked grin as she yanked out the spike and threw it to the side before turning fully to Nissa and running at her ready to slice her but was caught off guard as Nissa's fingers grew long and sharp as she sliced Twizzler's stomach causing black blood to ooze out slowly from her new wound. Twizzler touched her stomach with her blade like fingers and brought her blades to her lips and licked them off once real slowly before grinning over at Nissa. "Reach farther then last time." Twizzler noted out loud and chuckled a bit as Nissa grinned and crossed her arms, "Scared?" Nissa taunted and Twizzler grinned a bit, "Excited." She stated before disappearing and reappearing directly in Nissa's face catching her off guard as she was thrown towards the forest slamming into a tree hard making her gasp out as her rib hurt again. "Nissa!" They yelled out as they ran forward to get her but stopped when Twizzler appeared in front of Nissa as she knelt down and grinned evilly. "Get away from her!" Yuuske yelled out as Hiei ran at Twizzler who blocked him as he sliced through her sleeve showing the skin under her sleeves that was fused to the blades. Twizzler grinned more as she pushed him away sending him flying back. Nissa growled a bit as she went to get up but was pushed back down by the bladed hand pinned her there. "You lose." Twizzler laughed as she knelt down and got into Nissa's face with a big grin. "Step away from her!" Hiei yelled out as he held his katana to Twizzler's throat.

As small chuckle was heard coming from the back of Twizzler's throat, as she ran her blades over Nissa's stomach softly cutting her a bit making Hiei glare at Twizzler but before he could slice her Twizzler disappeared from sight and appeared behind him. Nissa's eyes got huge as Hiei's blood hit her face from one of Twizzler's blades going through his side causing him to go wide eyed and cough up blood as he dropped to his knees and held his side. Twizzler disappeared again but her laughter rang out around all of them, "HIEI!" Kurama and the others; including the girls who had been watching from inside, the guys began running towards them as Nissa was completely frozen with her eyes large as she began to shake a bit violently as Hiei dropped to the ground and blood started pouring out of his side slowly. She pulled him into her arms now, as tears began to form in her eyes, "I'm sorry Hiei." She whispered softly to him as the other's reached her, her energy flared out around Hiei and her as a tear dropped from her cheek that was turned into a clear gem with red glowing inside it this was the first gem she ever had like this before as she leaned down and kissed Hiei's forehead softly before standing up letting the other's take him as she growled.

"Awww how touching… it makes me sick!" Twizzler taunted and groaned a bit before laughing seeing that she had hit a sore spot for Nissa. Nissa clutched her fists while the guys took Hiei to the porch of the temple as Yukina and Angel ran out to tend to his body, which would be harder, than everyone thought. Nissa knew now that the game was over and this was a war as she opened her eyes and screamed loudly causing the other's to jump and look to her as she opened her eyes and had a wicked grin on her face, "Let's play." She stated as her tail flicked hard behind her and she seemed just as eerie as Twizzler now. The gang looked completely frightened by her change, as she seemed amused by the situation as she started laughing before Twizzler started laughing psychotically as her arms came out of the forest towards Nissa…
