Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ An Old Enemy ❯ Kend ( Chapter 7 )

Kend

 

The detectives entered the final chamber together. In the center stood Kend. As they approached he stood to meet them. His long robes billowed around him while long legs streched out to reach the path before him. Kend's stride was purposeful and full of meaning. Not once was there a falter or hesitation.

 

“Welcome detectives,” he smiled, “Have you enjoyed your stay so far?”

 

Kuwabara stepped forward, “What kind of a sick joke is this? All your fighters are weak and pathetic!”

 

“You're right they were. But they accomplished the things I needed them to do so it really isn't that much of a lose.”

 

“What did they do?” Kurama questioned.

 

Kend smirked, “Since you're going to suffer soon anyways I'll let you know. Aoi was the one who brought you here to begin with. Umi allowed me time to set up my trap. Fuyu and Musume were they because I needed a drop of blood from each of them in order to finish my trap. Does all of this information satisfy you?”

 

“How did you get the blood from the latter two?”

 

“Simple when Musume was thrown against the wall her head was scratched giving me one drop and when you broke Fuyu's collar you tore out the needles that were keeping the collar attached to his skin giving me the second drop.”

 

Sasha hissed in annoyance, “Where are my children?”

 

Kend sighed, “Currently I haven't got a clue as to where they might be. Somehow they escaped from my prison a couple of days ago.

 

“Now that we have all of that ridiculous information out of the way, are you ready to fight me? Although I would like to warn you that no matter what happens you will lose this battle.”

 

Yusuke, who had grown tired of the talk, charged. With fists engulfed in blue he refused to give any mercy to the demon he fought. Strangely though, Kend did not seem to mind the blows that struck nor did he try to defend himself against them. Finally Yusuke hit Kend hard enough that blood fell from his now broken nose to the floor. As each drop hit the ground, carvings appeared glowing an eery green. The remaining detectives watched as each drop fell to the ground strengthening the light.

 

Finally Kend swung his fist knocking Yusuke away. Hiei quickly replaced him. He had to stop that light and soon. Who knew what it was capable of? But still each drop of blood that fell from Kend's body caused the light to increase. Was there any stop to this? Eventually Hiei too was thrown away as Kuwabara attacked.

 

The cycle refused to end as the carrot top was tossed aside. Kurama and Sasha soon followed him until all were rising up again from the floor. A Spirit Gun from Yusuke, a thrown katana from Hiei, a streched Spirit Sword from Kuwabara, a glowing arrow from Sasha, and a whip lash from Kurama. Each landed upon Kend's injured body at the same time.

 

Kend fell to his knees with a smile on his face. The glow was so intense now that it blinded everyone in the room. Kend felt the life leaving his body and he knew that now he would finally have his revenge against Kurama and Sasha and demons everywhere would no longer have to fear the Spirit Detectives. Kend had won.

 

“Idiots, you have sealed your fate,” Kend whispered as he fell forward. Just before he died he said, “And now I wish for the seal in this room to bind you in a nightmare of your own making where you will live forever lost and alone.”

 

The light enveloped the detectives. They were no longer in the chamber where they had killed Kend. Instead each wondered through a black mist searching for a way to survive.

*****************

Bara stopped, “We are too late.”

 

Hoshi continued to pull her along, “No we can still bring them back but only if we hurry.”

*****************

“Hello is anyone out there?” Yusuke cried as he wondered through the mist, “Can anyone hear me?”

 

Suddenly the mists cleared and Yusuke found himself on the street next to his house. But where were all the people? Panicing he rushed into the house. No one was in there. Was he really here on his own? What about the others? Were they still alive?

*****************

Hiei found himself standing in front of Genkai's temple. The smell of blood was thick in the air. The blood of a human and the blood of…

 

Hiei burst into Genkai's home to find the old woman lying there with a pool of blood around her body. Running through the house he searched for his sister until he found her. Yukina was pinned to a tree in the middle of her own room. Pure demonic blood dripped from her body. Yukina was dead and he was alone again.

*****************

Kuwabara found everyone he cared about lying before him. Each had been stabbed by a sword. But who did this to them?

 

He looked down at his own hands and found his sword in his hands. He couldn't have. He couldn't have killed them. Someone else did this, right? Kuwabara fell to his knees. Bitter tears fell to the ground beneath him. He wasn't the one, was he?

******************

Sasha found her family lying before her. They had been slaughtered without mercy. But that wasn't what hurt the most.

 

What did hurt was seeing her sister standing in front of her with claws dripping the blood of Sasha's family. Noe had killed Kurama, Bara, and Hoshi for no reason at all. And now she was getting ready to come and slaughter her as well.

******************

Kurama watched images flash by of his loved ones suffering. He heard their cries, he felt their pain.

 

But Kurama was helpless to stop it. All he could do was crouch on the ground covering his ears trying to convince himself that it was a lie. They weren't suffering everyone was safe. But why then did it feel so real?
