"Will Team Urameshi and Team Gijutsu please enter the ring!" Koto yelled.
"Well, that's us, guys. Let's head on down!" Yusuke said, reenergized by the prospect of a fight.
"Right, Urameshi!" Kuwabara raced after the Team Leader.
"Hm. Idiots," Hiei grunted.
"They are merely excited to return to the arena. They have waited a while for this, so don't take it away from them," Kurama said.
"You are correct, as always, my love," said Himeko.
Yusuke poked his head around the corner he had just run past. "Hiei, Kurama, Himeko! Hurry up!"
A bit later, the entire Urameshi Team was assembled in the arena.
Across from Yusuke and his team was Team Gijutsu. All five members wore billowing black cloaks that obscured any detail beyond size from view.
"Well, here we have it! Team Urameshi and Team Gijutsu assembled and ready!" Koto yelled.
"Will the Team Leaders please come forward to discuss the battle terms!" Tero yelled.
Yusuke and the largest of the cloaked warriors entered the ring.
"I say we have a simple `til five match," said the massive leader of Team Gijutsu.
"Sounds good, big guy. Let's go," Yusuke said, walking back towards the team.
"Well, fans, we have our terms! The first fighters shall now enter," yelled Koto.
"Okay, guys. Who's first?" asked Yusuke.
"I'll go. We want this ended as quickly as possible, right? Than I'm the best choice," said Hiei.
"No way, Shorty. I'm going up first!" said Kuwabara.
Meanwhile, the first fighter from Team Gijutsu was in the ring. From what the cloak showed, it was a tall, muscular fighter that was fairly human in shape.
"Come on! I want to smash one of you humans already!" said the fighter in a cold toned voice.
"You'll get your fight. And most of us aren't human," said an agitated Hiei.
"Listen. I'll go, if it will speed things up," said Kurama.
"Fine. That's almost as good as me entering," said Hiei.
"Very well, than." Kurama walked into the ring.
"Be careful, Kura-chan!" yelled Himeko.
"Well, then! We have our first fighters!" yelled Koto.
"From Team Urameshi, the traitorous Kurama! And from Team Gijutsu, it's Fuku!" said Tero.
The mysterious warrior threw off his cloak. Underneath the black cloth was a man with spiky black hair and green cargo pants.
"I am Sergeant Fuku! I am here to destroy my opponents so that I may, yet again, be an officer in the army, even if it's a demon army." The warrior scowled at Kurama. Red lights blinked on his eye-patch.
"Fighters ready, go!"
Fuku quickly pressed some buttons on his arm brace.
"It's time to get taught by the master! Machine Gun Fist!" Fuku roared.
Fuku quickly rushed at Kurama. He punched at Kurama with blinding speed. *Machine Gun Fist* Several times, Kurama was struck.
Kurama barely dodged the next two strikes, but was sent flying by the third.
"So this is the power of the mighty Kurama. Hah! Weakling!" Fuku roared with laughter.
Kurama raised his head. His eyes flashed gold, and black and white fire started to emerge from his body.
"Mock me will you Humanoid? That's a very stupid thing to do!"
The black and white flames shot away in fox-shapes.
Fuku looked over at the rising Kurama. The oddly cool flames licked his body. The fire had started to cloud the arena.
From the fires arose Yoko Kurama, making his third Dark Tournament appearance.
The Fox Demon looked over himself. "Odd. This time, I needed neither the Idunn Box nor its fruit to transform. Perhaps a new power has been granted to me through my training. Odd. At any rate, it's time I killed you, Fuku." Yoko Kurama spoke the last sentence with a cool, not quite arrogant tone.
"Hah! I doubt that! Machine Gun Fist!"
Fuku, again, rushed at Kurama. He lashed out with super-fast punches.
The new Yoko Kurama blocked every blow with one hand.
"Is that all you've got?" said Yoko Kurama, as the demon twisted Fuku's hand back.
The sound of bone crunched echoed throughout the arena, followed by a scream of pain.
As Yoko Kurama let go, Fuku stumbled back. The warrior clutched his wrist, were jagged bone now stabbed through the flesh. His blood dripped onto the floor with a light *plink* sound.
Kuwabara stared wide-eyed at the damage Yoko Kurama had inflicted with such a simple twist of the wrist.
"He's . . . he's really strong," Kuwabara said, too shocked to speak intelligently.
"Hm. Of course he's strong. He's in his Demon Form. His power has doubled," Hiei said.
"And he's so . . . sexy!" Himeko said, gazing at her former lover.
"You won't defeat me! Cyborg Triangle!" Fuku's human eye was wide with fear. His eye-patch, however, fired out a triangular laser directly at Yoko Kurama's heart.
The energy beam bolted towards Kurama. The Demon merely batted away the laser as he would bat away a fly.
"You humans and your pathetic laser beams. Those pathetic light beams can't even scratch the skin of a powerful demon like myself."
In a flash, Yoko Kurama had crossed the arena and was now face-to-face with Fuku.
"Remember, Fuku. I didn't need to turn into my Demon form to destroy you. The thing is, my human form is a little too slow to deal with that `Machine Gun Fist' technique of yours. If not for that, you would've been defeated by now. Oh, well. I guess you lose!"
Upon yelling the last word, Yoko Kurama shot his arm into Fuku's abdomen. He put his arm in up to the elbow.
"Tell everyone in Spirit World that neither Yoko Kurama nor Suichi Minomoto are to be taken lightly. Understood?" Yoko Kurama hissed in Fuku's ear.
The paling man barely nodded. His eye rolled back in its socket.
"Good," said Yoko Kurama as he twisted his arm and wrenched it out.
Fuku grimaced in agony as blood gushed out of his gut. The liquid rushed out in a crimson flood, covering the arena floor in gore.
"W . . .well, fans. It looks like the always-gorgeous Yoko Kurama has, again, caused serious damage to his opponent! It's win Team Urameshi!" Koto yelled, while gazing at Yoko Kurama with lust in her eyes.
Himeko scowled at the cat demon.
"Ahem!" Tero snarled. "The next opponents will enter the arena. And can we get a cleanup crew out here?"
The white and black fire surrounded Yoko Kurama. When the flames faded, the regular Kurama stood there.
"Awww, he changed back again. Damn!" Koto swore.
Hey! It's Yusuke again! Okay, we have won the first fight of Team Urameshi vs. Team Gijitsu. But next up, it's our mystery fighter Himeko, A.K.A Tsunami Yakosuya, going up against another one of the mysterious Techno-Warriors. And when jewelry starts flying and, get this, exploding, things get freaky as we enter fight two! See how it ends next time on Yu Yu Hakusho!
