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

As the dust and smoke cleared from the sky, there laid Yuki on the ground, face down. For a moment his whole body was still until a dry cough escaped his throat. With a little strength, Yuki rolled on to his back and gasped heavily, clutching his torn shirt.

"I…thought I died…I could have sworn I just see Botan-san…" He whispered softly before coughing again. He closed his eyes and winced as he tried to sit up and then a yell of pain torn of his throat. A loud crackling noise alarmed him that his arms were broken.

Yuki suddenly stiffened when he heard footsteps running towards him and instinctively growled letting whoever knew that he would attack him if they got any closer.

"Yuki!"

His eye flow opened and soon recognized the familiar voice. It was Yusuke's! "Yusuke!"

Yuki was instantly pulled into a tight embrace and his mouth opened in a silent scream of pain as a rush of burning fire exploded through out his body. "AAAAAHHHHHH!"

"What's wrong?"

"Put him down!"

"He's having a seizure!"

"Help him!"

"Here I find it!"

"What the hell is that?"

"A senzu bean."

"Don't give him that!"

"Shut up!"

Many voices were heard above him before something was forced into his mouth. Yuki was about to spit it out but a hand forced him to shallow it making him gag slightly. He pushed back the bail that was forming at his throat and suddenly all the strength and energy that disappeared from his body came back.

Yuki slowly sat up and looked around himself to notice that Goku, Vejita, Kurama, and Hiei were his left and Yusuke, Kuwabara, Mirai, and Gohan were on his right. He blinked in surprise and raised his arm to gaze at it. It was completely heal!

"H-How?" Yuki asked looking up at Goku. "My energy all came back!"

"That was a senzu bean. It heals whatever injury you have." The Saiyan explained smiling down at the boy, who nodded. A firm frown soon replaced the smile. "Are you alright?"

"Yes. I feel-" Yuki looked up sharply and glared at the figure that was standing a few feet in front of him and hissed. "Karasu."

"So you lived after all. Hmm I guess my attack wasn't that strong." Karasu said looking at Yuki, who was standing up. He then glanced at Kurama and smirked. "Hello, my dear Kurama. Long time no see?"

"Karasu…I will never forgive you." Kurama narrowed his eyes at the purple-eyed youkai and took a step forward but was stopped by his son. Kurama looked questionably at Yuki. "Yuki?"

"This is my fight." Yuki said looking at his father in the eye. "Do not interfere."

"But…" Kurama frowned at Yuki, who shook his head.

"This is my fight. I started it and now I will finish it." Yuki spoke calmly and then glanced back at the rest. "I will kill anyone who interferes!"

"Don't be stupid, Yuki! We can take him on together!" Yusuke shouted at Yuki, who ignored him and leaped into the air towards Karasu. "Yuki!"

The Urameshi team was just about to run after Yuki but Goku and Vejita blocked their way. They glare at the two Saiyans.

"Out of our way Saiyan." Hiei growled dangerously up at Vejita and Goku.

"Sorry, can't do that. Yuki wants to fight on his own. He isn't a child anymore. He can take care of himself." Goku reassured gazing at Yuki. Kuwabara protested also glaring at the two Saiyans.

"He can't fight Karasu on his own, even Kurama almost died fighting that bastard! Yuki needs our help! Let us through."

"Kuwabara right for the first time." Yusuke muttered to himself.

"Baka. Let the boy fight." Vejita snorted crossing his arms. Kuwabara gritted his teeth and his glare focused on the prince but stayed quiet. He knew better then to mess with the prince. Vejita was a lot more dangerous then Hiei is.

"Move out of our way, Vejita." Kurama said coldly narrowing his green eyes at the Saiyan.

Vejita narrowed his eyes and stepped out of the Urameshi's team way and snarled, "Fine. Go help the boy! See what happens if you try to help him! I dare you. Go ahead and brake the boy's pride even more."

**********

"Hmm…. It seems no one believes in you, Yuki. What a shame not even your parents." Karasu smirked, glancing at the arguing group. Yuki clenched his fist and glared angrily down at his family.

Why couldn't they understand that he didn't need their help? He was the helpless little boy he used to be before he was kidnapped. He had trained with the best and strongest warriors in the universe and still they treated him like a child!

Yuki shook his head and cleared his mind. He didn't need to think about that now. Right now, he had to destroy the youkai, whom used him as his other masters had done.

Yuki took a deep breath and tried to call his anger in him when suddenly he heard familiar footsteps running towards him and something inside snapped. He clenched his fist and glared at his family.

"Why can't you just let me fight him alone! Why do you all try to protect me! I don't need you help!" Yuki yelled offended by his family thinking that he was weak.

"We only want to help you, Yuki." His father admitted staring at him but was taken back by Yuki's anger.

"I don't need your help! Just leave me alone." Yuki growled at Kurama. Vejita rolled his eyes and huffed.

"K'so what is this a TV show? Finish the weakling, boy." Vejita snapped putting his hand on his hip and rolled his eyes again when Yuki's family began to argue again. It was then that Vejita decided to put an end to the situation and whispered with a smirk. "Fine. I'll finish him."

Without warning the prince leaped into the air and charged all his ki in a small but really dense sphere in front of him and then released a HUGE blast of energy towards Karasu with a loud shout.

"FINAL FLASH!"

The blast was too strong for Karasu to push back and it devoured the youkai whole, laying a large crater in the middle of the ground. Everyone except Goku gazed at the crater stunned then at Vejita.

Goku chuckled and patted the prince on the back almost making Vejita fall face forward. "Gee Vejita, you didn't have to make a big scene about it. He wasn't that strong."

"Hn."

"Wasn't that strong?" Kuwabara's eye twitched looking at Goku and asked weakly. "How strong are you guys? You took him out like he was nothing!"

Yuki sighed, a relief and let go all the weight off his shoulders. He was glad that he didn't have to finish off Karasu himself and show people how strong he was. Yuki didn't like to be the central of attention sometimes.

"Well…I guess we can all go home now." Goku said smiling at everyone before glancing at Gohan. "Come one, son. Let's go before Chichi gets angry with us and not let us have dinner! Bye guys."

"Sure thing dad." Gohan nodded and waved to Yuki as he leaped in the air after his father. "See ya, Yuki!"

"Bye Gohan. Bye Goku-san!" Yuki waved back weakly smiling. He glanced at his father to still see them stare at the crater in disbelief and chuckled.

Yusuke yawned and started to walk away. "Better be off to bed. I'm tired."

"But Yusuke, you don't fight anyone. How can you be tired?" Kuwabara asked running after his best friend.

"I've been running all that time and worrying about Yuki. That takes a lot of work to do." Yusuke admitted crossing his arms been his head as he walked and then waved lazily at Kurama, Hiei, Yuki and Mirai. "I'll be at the CC. Ja ne."

Vejita shook his head and without glancing at anyone but Mirai and huffed but it was very clear he was please with himself for killing Karasu. "Come one, boy. We got more training to do." And took off.

"Yes, Father." Mirai sighed and smiled at Yuki. "It's good to see you back, Yuki. Too bad I have to train with Father right now or else we would have a chat. Well I better go before Father gets angry with me. Bye."

"Bye Mirai." Yuki muttered waving and sighed, suddenly feeling two gazing burning through his head. A delicate looking hand landed on his shoulder making him jump.

"Yuki, I think we need a little chat." Kurama said smiling at his nervous son.

"Yes, I think we do and don't try to run away. You know that I can always find you." Hiei tapped his Jagan eye looking at Yuki seriously.

"Yes, sir." Yuki groaned, slouching his shoulders and glanced behind him in surprise to see Botan. "Botan-san! What are you doing here?"

"Yuki-chan!" The blue haired Grime Reaper jumped off her oar and hugged the boy tightly. "Oh I missed you so much. Look how you grown, you look just like Kurama."

"Er thank you." Yuki said weakly trying to breathe. Kurama shook his head with a twinkle in his forest green eyes.

"Botan, I don't think Yuki is suppose to turn blue." Kurama said pointing at Yuki's dark blue face. Botan blinked, surprised and quickly released the boy, who gasped for air.

"Gomen, Yuki." The Reaper apologized sheepishly blushing. Yuki nodded and smiled back already knowing the blue haired women was very happy to see him.

"What are you doing here, Botan? I thought you were suppose to be collecting souls." Kurama asked looking questionably at Botan.

"I am collecting souls. Karasu soul that is. Koenma wanted me to get here quick better Karasu tried to escape again." She held up a small jar with Karasu's soul inside. A small black cloud like soul floated in the glass jar.

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

Man what a horrible ending to a battle! Okay this is the WORST chapter I have done! Please forgive me! I thought it was kind of funny if Vejita finished Karasu off because of his impatience, but when I wrote it. I was horrible! Although the chapters WILL get better. I will promise you that…
