Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Tournament ❯ Naomi's Kinetic Strength ( Chapter 9 )

Naomi's Kinetic Strength

Somewhere in the wind Yusuke heard the distant cry of, "Night Ally!"

Stopping his attacks on the taps on his shoulders he turned to face the new onslaught and discovered he still could see nothing. Before he realized what was happening a shadow flew in his face throwing him about. Bringing his foot out, Yusuke watched as his foot meerly flew through the body of his opponent causing no damage to it. Growling Yusuke got up.

Naomi's laughter was heard all around as Yusuke fought the shadow. He couldn't even defend himself as the shadow meerly went past all of his defenses to attack him directly. There was no way he was going to win against a shadow, he'd have to find Naomi in the snow before he was attacked again. Groaning softly he moved forward.

"Keiko," he whispered, "why am I thinking about you? Man this cold is really starting to get to me."

A voice behind him suddenly asked, "Who's Keiko? Is she your girlfriend or something?"

"Why do you care Naomi?"

"Because I heard you say her name and I got curious," Naomi responded as she ended the storm to allow Yusuke to see that she was standing directly in front of him. She had a slight frown on her face although she still had the twinkle in her eyes, "So who is she?"

"That's none of your business," Yusuke spat.

Naomi grinned, "Well be that way! If you don't want to tell me then it's not my problem. So let's here, I don't feel like losing so I'm going to finish this fight, okay?"

"Actually I'd prefer it if you didn't," Yusuke growled into her face so she couldn't see his hand.

"Well gosh! You don't have to get all huffy about it!"

"Whatever," Yusuke smirked, "Spirit Gun!"

The reiki sent Naomi flying into the stands where she sat motionless for a couple of seconds before glaring at Yusuke. Standing quickly, she lept back into the ring just as Koto cried, "Eight!" With an evil smirk on her face, Naomi put her hands on her hips.

"You shouldn't have done that," she laughed, "Now I'm really angry and you won't like me when I'm angry."

Yusuke glared at her, "Oh just shut up and fight!"

"Fine but you're not going to like my Kinetic Strength," Naomi warned as energy wrapped around her body. It glowed and crackled as it circled around her pulsating with her anger. "You're going to regret getting me angry."

Using her mind, she suddenly sent Yusuke flying into the wall behind him. For a full four counts she held him there before bringing him back into the ring. Flinging him into the air, she would suddenly let go of his body sending him hurtling towards the ground only to catch him just before he hit the ground. Sending him up into the air again, she followed and began to beat him senseless as he fell. He was just like a doll under her control.

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

Hiei watched from the sidelines as Naomi contiued to beat Yusuke. What she was doing was cruel and while he was not one of mercy, this was beyond even him. Yusuke had no chance to fight back and at the rate she was going, he wouldn't even be conscious for much longer.

But this is not what disgusted him the most. No that spot was given to these demons in the crowd who lived off of watching this bloodshed. They sat there risking their lives just to watch these fighters hurt and kill each other. Hiei turned back to the fight to see how far Naomi was willing to go.

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

Yusuke could no longer feel the blows that were delivered to his numb body. He couldn't fight back or defend himself as long as this power held him and while he was not one for begging, he was ready to do even that to stop the torture. Glancing down at the ground below him, he wished he could land and stay there without returning to the air. Groaning, he felt the darkness begin to take hold.

Naomi continued until she discovered that her victim had finally fallen unconscious. Smiling she gave him three more hits before lowering him slowly to the ground outside the with his team. Her opponent had been to destracted going into this fight leaving him vunerable and now he'd paid the price for it. She turned to Koto and waited.

"Yusuke you have to ten to return to the ring," Koto called, "1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9…10 ! And Naomi is declared the winner since Yusuke failed to return to the ring in time!"

Naomi skipped off the ring to join her team mates for the next draw. She hoped that she could fight again but frowned when instead Dami was chosen. Dami opened her wings and flew to the center of the ring to meet Hiei there since he was the only one able to fight for Team Urameshi. From her hair to her clothes, she was gold with pale skin. She stood there just like a lady-in-waiting as she smiled at her opponent. She remembered Hiei, she remembered him well. Teasingly she stroked the katana at her side watching Hiei's reaction. Just as she expected, his eyes fell upon the sword. This was going to be a fun fight.

Next Time:

However Hiei seems to know all of her tricks and he's not letting any of the get to him as he fight. But how does he know this? Find out on The Stolen Katana.
