~Let the Battle Begin~
~BRYIN'S POV~
When I finally was able to cope with what just happened I slipped out of my room into the discussion room to find it empty. Well it was until I turned around. Jumping back in shock, I yelped yet again.
"Yusuke! You need to stop sneaking up on me like that." I breathed out.
"Sorry, I was just a bit worried about you. Couldn't find you for a while." Yusuke let out a nervous laugh.
"There is no need to worry about me Yusuke, though I highly appreciate it." I let out a small laugh.
"Yea, anyways, I was hoping we could talk…" He took a step forward
Those words. I wasn't ready to continue the war let alone this! But before any other progressions could be made…
"BRYYYINNNN!"
"What the hell…" Yusuke and I looked towards the voice and sudden surge of power.
"Zetsumei." I muttered out.
In an instant Yusuke and I were out on the porch along with Kuwabara, Kurama, Hiei, Genkai, Botan, and Kowenma.
"It's time to get this started. NO MORE DILIMAS!" Zetsumei powered up and the land below shattered.
This wasn't good. I couldn't even spread my wings in this form, let alone produce my most basic attacks. I was literally, going to have to wing this battle. But none of the less…let the battle begin.
Zetsumei started off with his favorite; giant spiked mallet. Coming down at full speed Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara, who were in the way, quickly jumped from where the mallet was going to hit. The ground became a bowl that spread for about 100 meters. The first half of the temple was destroyed just because of the blast. Whatever was left of it slid down the hole. Standing barely on the edge:
"Holy crap! That thing is huge!" Kuwabara shouted.
"Just dodging the mallet itself was a bit to close. But if he keeps pushing out power like that, we won't have much of a battle arena." Hiei spoke.
"He's dead!" Yusuke readied his Spirit Gun.
Before he could do anything my wings had sprung from the human body, which hurt like hell, and I was up in the air. I generated my long sword in my hands and came at him. When I went to make the first blow Zetsu changed his mallet to his sword and blocked my attack with ease. The smirk on his face became so sinister even I shook. Both of us pulled back and went at it again.
~YUSUKE'S POV~
When Zetsu and Bryin made their second attack, all of us went flying.
"I don't think there is much for us to do, Yusuke." Kurama slightly mumbled.
"Yea, I think their power surpasses that of even Togur's." Kuwabara was falling backwards in shock.
With every blow their power increased more and more canceling each other's out. The final blow; Zetsu sent Bryin flying into the furthest part of Genkai's temple.
"Bryyyyyinnnnnn, come out and play Bryin! I'm not DONE!" Zetsu threw a black static ball where Bryin landed.
Again we all flew back.
"Dude, nothing could have survived…" Before Kuwabara finished Bryin was back in the air flying at full speed at Zetsu. "WHAT THE HELL?"
"I believe I now understand what Kouken meant." Kurama spoke.
"What do you mean?" I asked for clarification.
"Kouken said we were not to get involved or else our lives would be taken. He was concerned of the outcome of how our lives would be lost. For instance; Kushin was killed by Bryin, thus for his soul won't go anywhere. If we are killed by them the reasoning and outcome could be different. Either way, our death path won't be the same. Kouken never cared about the battle, because we could never make a difference. We have no say as into what will happen." Even Kurama got frustrated and clutched his fist.
I gave the battle at hand my attention again.
"We can't make a difference. So what…I'm supposed to watch him get beat? I'm supposed to watch him fight something he can't win in this state? That's not fair!"
I yelled in frustration, allowing my energy to explode. It didn't even catch their attention.
"THIS ISN'T FAIR!" I yelled as loud as I could.
Again, Bryin was knocked out of the sky. Zetsu came down with a powerful attack but was deflected by a sudden light that made yet another crater in the ground. Zetsu went flying back, opened a portal and disappeared.
Bryin quickly got up, looking around. When he realized that Zetsumei wasn't around he let his guard down and gave me his full attention.
His wing span was at least 18 feet long and 10 feet wide. He pulled them back in when he walked towards us.
"Yusuke, I understand your frustration. But this is something you have to entrust me with. Unfortunately, whether you like it or not." Bryin confronted.
"I don't care! I want to help! I can't stand back like this. It will…"
I couldn't finish. Bryin covered my mouth, smiling like always.
"Help Kouken help me." Was his reply.
"Huh?"
"Kouken knew sooner or later the battle was going to be somewhere in demon world. I know that's where Zetsu went, and where we will be finishing this. Even though the battle area is now ready, it doesn't mean the areas around it is. We are going to have many demons flock to the battle. And if close they will be killed and won't have a future for their spirit. I want you to help Kouken keep the area as clear as possible. Please. My heart aches already for those that will lose their life. I want as little as interference as possible." Bryin explained.
"What will happen if someone else dies in the battle?" Kuwabara asked.
"If killed by me, their soul will be no more. If killed by Zetsumei, either their soul will be no more or they will descend to hell without even going through the process of Spirit World." Bryin answered.
"I want to help fight!" I tried again.
"Like you want to finish your battles alone, I must finish my battle alone. Trust me, you will be a big help." With that Bryin disappeared.
"Wait! Where the hell did you go?" I yelled out in frustration.
"Yusuke, allow me to explain. You will be a bigger help than you think." Kurama started.
"And what the hell do you mean?" I turned my rage to him.
Sighing, Kurama continued. "Bryin said it himself. He is already sad about the loss of life that will happen in the battle. But don't you get it. He will be distracted with the lives that will come into the battle, thus weakening him. If we keep the battle as clear as possible Bryin won't have as much of a problem defeating Zetsu."
"Why don't they go back to the world they were in before and finish it there?" Hiei asked.
"Probably because Bryin can't go back." Kuwabara joked.
"Actually, you are right." Kurama caught Kuwabara off by surprise.
"Huh? But I was only joking."
"I know, but the answer is right none of the less. So long as Bryin is still in the human body he is in; he is considered not to be ready to go back to heaven." Kurama finished.
"Alright, let's stop wasting time. Are we going to help Bryin or not?" I suddenly had this surge of energy to get involved as much as possible.
"Right, let's go!" Kuwabara agreed.
With that, Hiei and Kurama took us to the fort Kouken set up.
