Chapter 9: The Beginning of the Warfare

 

“Weather it looks silly or not is not the point. I surround the yarn with my own aura, making it stronger than even the strongest steel. So, as you can tell, it makes a very effective weapon,” Heru explained to the puzzled group of fighters.

 

“That's strong,” Kuwabara stated the obvious a bit too surprisingly.

 

Kuronue took out his scythe as Heru started to attack. Kelly immediately ran behind Botan, thinking that Botan would be of some help. Kurama took out his rose whip while Kuwabara powered up his sword and Yusuke charged his spirit gun.

 

Heru spun on her heels to block Kurama's rose whip attack. She fought with Kurama for a few more seconds before Kuwabara started to charge her. Heru caught Kuwabara's sword with her right hand without any effort.

 

“I thought you guys would have put up a better fight than this,” Heru stated disappointingly, holding both Kurama and Kuwabara off.

 

“They might not but I sure as heck will,” Kuronue said, running straight for Heru with his weapon drawn.

 

Heru gave Kuronue a sly smile. She kicked Kuronue's weapon out of his hand as she did a front flip over his head. As they continued to fight, the dust and dirt started to gather in the air. After a while they were basically fighting blind.

 

Kelly got separated from Botan's side early in the fight. She was now standing alone in the shroud of dust and debris when all of the sudden something bumped into her back. Kelly spun on her heels to find herself face to face with Heru. Heru instantly grabbed onto Kelly's right wrist and held it tightly.

 

“Let go of me!” Kelly demanded, trying to get her wrist free.

 

“It's apparent you have no powers. All you can do is hide behind the others and hope they protect you. They may not save you this time. Well at least Kuronue won't. Not after what you said.

 

“I would love to just kill you right now. I hate nothing more than a defenseless coward,” Heru stated, finally losing her warm smile to be replaced with a scowl that showed sharper than normal fangs.

 

“Let me go!”

 

Heru's hand started to glow a tainted blue. Kelly felt a severe pain in her wrist as if Heru was cutting it right off.

 

“HELP!!” Kelly screamed.

 

“Kelly!” Kuronue and Kurama both said, turning to where they heard her cry for help came from.

 

They both dashed through the thick screen of dust. Kelly grabbed onto Heru's wrist trying to free herself. The pain started to become unbearable to Kelly.

 

“Let her go, Heru,” Kurama ordered, bringing his whip down on Heru's arm.

 

Heru let Kelly go so she could dodge the attack. Kuronue jumped over Kurama and Heru's head to land in front of Kelly.

 

“Kelly, are you okay?” Kuronue asked, keeping his focus on Heru.

 

“Yes,” Kelly answered, obviously shaken up. “He actually came? After I snapped at him?” Kelly thought, clutching her right wrist against her chest.

 

“Good.”

 

Heru blocked another of Kurama's attacks with her yawn. Kelly watched as Kurama and Heru continued their brawl with each other. Kuronue thwarted the few attacks aimed at Kelly from Heru.

 

“Kelly, I want you to run. I don't care to where just get out of here,” Kuronue ordered a few moments after he first got there.

 

Just then the others joined in on the fray. Kuronue left Kelly's side to help his comrades. Kelly stood there, watching her friends fight for their lives unable to move even in the slightest.

 

Heru finally got on opening and immediately took it. She wrapped her rainbow colored yawn around Yusuke's right wrist as he was powering up his Spirit Gun. Kuwabara sliced down on the yawn with his Spirit Sword but all that happened was that his sword bounced off of the strengthened yawn. Heru grabbed another part of the yawn and wrapped it around Kuwabara's right arm. Kuronue took this opportunity to try to slice Heru with his scythe. Heru spun 360 degrees in order to wrap her yawn around his scythe with a piece of yawn that was being held in her mouth.

 

This gave Kurama an opening to attack Heru. Heru moved her right arm so the rose whip would wrap around her arm instead of causing a serious injury. Kurama quickly started to pull as an attempt to cut Heru's arm off.

 

“It won't work. I can also use my aura to place a protective shield around my body,” Heru explained in an almost inaudible way through her clenched teeth.

 

“I never saw them fight before, but surly Koenma wouldn't have sent them here if they weren't good,” Kelly thought as she looked intently on at the battle.

 

“I thought you Spirit Detectives would have been a better challenge than this,” Heru mocked the four trapped in her web.

 

Hiei ran at Heru with his katana drawn. Heru noticed just in time to move enough to only receive a rather deep cut on her left shoulder. Hiei skid to a stop while turning 180 degrees to face Heru and in the process of doing so, kicking up some dirt particles into the air.

 

“Hiei's by himself. How could I help them? Heru's right about me. I'm just a powerless human. All I can do is just hide behind my friends. I'm so lame!” Kelly thought, tears coming to the surface.

 

Kurama let go of his rose whip in order to join his friend to try to set the others free. Heru, despite having an obvious hindrance, was able to dodge serious injury. She never let go of her yawn so the other three couldn't help their friends without either losing a hand or an entire arm in Kuwabara's case. Kelly watched as Heru pulled on all three pieces of yawn trying to dodge attacks. As a result to this blood started to drop to the ground from the wound that was opened by the yawn being tightened. Kelly could no longer hold back the tears. Her hands rose to her mouth where they came to a rest.

 

“Stop it…Why are you doing this? Why? STOP IT!!” Kelly screamed the last part as she dropped her hand.

 

Heru, along with everyone else, turned her attention to Kelly. Kelly fell to the ground on all fours with tears streaming down her face and onto the dirt. Her head was down and her eyes closed tight.

 

“Please, stop. Heru, please stop this,” Kelly pleaded, holding back her sobs so her words would come out clear.

 

Heru completely turned around towards Kelly's direction. The excited, happy expression she previously wore was now gone. At the moment she looked absolutely furious. She took the yawn that was in her mouth out and held it in her right hand. The others watched Kelly continue to cry on all fours.

 

“You pathetic, worthless human. If you want me to stop then force me to stop. Why don't you quite crying and do something to help your companions? Get up and show you are not baggage to these five, or you can just whimper out of cowardliness,” Heru ordered, not even trying to conceal her rage.

 

Kelly didn't move. She just continued to cry on all fours with her eyes closed tightly. Heru let her anger completely take over. She moved Kuronue's yawn to her right hand while taking out another piece of colorful yawn. Heru bonded Kelly's throat with the new piece of yawn. Kelly immediately sat back on her heels trying to get the yawn off of her.

 

“Kelly!” Kurama called, starting to run at Heru with his new rose whip.

 

“Stop! That is unless you want this girl to die,” Heru ordered, looking back at the stalled Kurama.

 

Kurama looked towards Kelly as he lowered his weapon. Hiei started to get a bit upset so he ran at Heru. When Hiei got a few inches from Kurama, Kurama put out his left arm to stop his friend. Hiei stopped a few centimeters from Kurama's arm. He shook his head slightly as if to say, “we cannot risk it”.

 

“I thought so,” Heru stated, turning her attention back to Kelly, “Now it's time to deal with you.”

 

Heru pulled slightly on the yawn around Kelly's neck. Blood immediately started to flow down her neck. Kelly tried to get her fingers under the yawn so she could rip it off but this only made Heru even more infuriated. She pulled tighter on the yawn so it disappeared from the surface of Kelly's skin.

 

Kurama started to run at Heru once again but Heru immediately pulled tighter on her yawn. This caused Kelly to scream out in pain, something she had not done the whole time she was under attack. Kurama stopped a few yards from Heru the moment he heard Kelly's anguish.

 

“I told you to stay back! I don't plan on decapitating her but if you insist on trying to attack me than I will have no choice. Since I have your attention I will ask you all again. I will leave without killing anyone if Kuronue and Youko Kurama come with me. It is just that simple,” Heru explained to everyone once more.

 

Kurama turned his rose whip back into the red rose it started out as. Heru gave a genuine smile. It was obvious that she was enjoying this. Kuronue looked like he was fighting with himself. Kurama noticed this and looked over at him with a slight headshake. Kuronue reluctantly dropped his scythe in response.

 

“Never…” Kelly gasped out.

 

“What?” Kuronue whispered, looking over to her with everyone else following suit.

 

“If they go with you…” Kelly coughed up some blood, “then you'll take them to Yumekisu Kageryu. I won't allow that.”

 

“Stupid girl! It's your life or the life of people you don't even like.”

 

“I don't care! Shuichi could kill you right now if you were playing fair. You can't do that, can you? You can't win by fair means alone!”

 

Heru pulled on the yawn even more. Kelly could now feel the yawn touching the muscles in her throat. Kuronue started to move towards Kelly and the yawn disappeared from the surface of his skin along with the blood that flowed down his arm. Kelly saw this and shook her head slightly.

 

“It hurts. If I say anymore I have no doubt that Heru would cut my head off. All I need to do is distract her long enough for Shuichi to take her down,” thought Kelly as she started to get to her feet slowly.

 

“If you move another muscle I will decapitate you,” Heru explained to Kelly as she got to her feet.

 

“You don't have the guts. If you kill me then you have no leverage. After I'm dead there will be nothing stopping the others from attacking you,” Kelly explained to the ticked off demon before her.

 

“Don't tempt me girl! I could beat these weaklings without using you as anything. Now chose! Will you continue to fight even if it means this girl will die, or will you come with me peacefully?”

 

“They will fight!” Kelly yelled on the top of her lung, which resulted in her throwing up some more blood. “I have to get them to fight,” Kelly thought.

 

“I'm sorry, Kelly. I know what you are doing but we can't risk it,” Kurama explained.

 

“Fine. Then don't risk it. I'll risk it.”

 

“What do you mean?” Heru asked, obviously confused at how she could do anything.

 

Kelly took a step forward while grabbing the yawn with her right hand. The yawn slacked enough for Kelly to wrap it around her right hand. She looked straight into Heru's eyes as she gave her a grin. Heru pulled slightly on the yawn but all it did was tighten around Kelly's hand.

 

“She's smarter than she looks,” Heru thought with a smile.

 

Kelly took a small step forward once more to make sure she was in good condition. Once she knew she could walk without any side effects she ran at Heru. Heru chose not to let go of the other pieces of yawn to block anything Kelly was going to do. Kelly tightened her grip on the yawn, as she got closer to Heru. When she was a foot away she bent down and placed her hands on the ground. With in seconds Heru was on the ground from the kick that made direct contact with the center of her head.

 

When Kelly got to her feet she noticed that the yawn that was around her neck had cut through Heru's clothing and left a cut on her left shoulder. Heru pushed herself up while still holding the others' yawn pieces.

 

“You're stronger than I originally thought,” Heru said.

 

“Now let them go,” Kelly ordered.

 

“But that little kick of yours didn't hurt more than a slight bop on the head.”

 

Heru got up and pulled Kelly's yawn tight enough for the yawn to reach the bones in her hand. Kelly fell to the ground on her knees.
