Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ The Tournament ❯ Child of Light ( Chapter 15 )

Hey sorry I took so long you guys. I had no access to a computer but don't worry Neko is back and rolling.

Child of Light

"Round two will be Takumi of Team Uso versus Yusuke Urameshi of Team Urameshi! Fighters are you ready?"

Takumi smiled, "No I'm not ready at all so I decided to come up here and paint my nails. Geez of course I'm ready!"

"Same here," Yusuke confirmed.

Koto blinked a couple of times before raising her arm into the air. As she brought it down she cried, "Fighters, begin!"

Takumi ran her fingers through her hair as she adjusted her tank top. When she was done primping she looked at Yusuke, "Okay since I don't have a mirror this is going to have to do. You see my mother said I should always make sure that I'm presentable for a fight."

"Yeah whatever can we get started now?" Yusuke muttered.

"Geez someone got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning. Fine we can get a move on." And Takumi began to fire hundreds of ki blasts at her opponent.

Yusuke gathered all of his energy into his fist and fired, "Shotgun!"

Takumi blinked in surprise as all of her blasts were deflected, "Well now there's something new. I don't think anyone has ever stopped all of my blasts in one shot."

"Well you learn new things every day," Yusuke responded gathering his energy once more as he distracted Takumi.

"True, oh well, I'll just use a different attack. Lost Dreams!" Instantly Yusuke watched everything around him disappear. Then before his very eyes was his school. The bell began to ring and Keiko rushed by to follow the other students. She turned to him as she ran calling for him to hurry so he wouldn't be late. Confused he decided to do as she asked.

The school day was normal but Yusuke knew that something wasn't right. He should be at the tournament and yet even Kuwabara had no idea what he was talking about. On his way towards his house, he took a detour when he heard something strange. There in an allyway was a huge demon attacking a young girl.

Yusuke watched as the demon approached before he called out, "Hey buddy leave her alone!"

"What do you want human?" the demon growled.

"Simple I want to get out of this stupid world so I can finish my fight with that girl. But since I don't know how I think I'll start by getting rid of you," Yusuke smirked until he noticed that everything around him was growing dark. Everywhere he heard voices of those he cared about the most.

"Urameshi why'd you give up?" Kuwabara asked.

"Quit being such a baka and fight back!" Hiei spat.

"Come on dimwit I trained you better than this!" Genkai ordered.

"Come on you can do it Yusuke!" Botan cried.

"Would you really give up on those you love?" Kurama questioned.

"I thought you were better than this now show me what you got!" Koenma called.

"Yusuke don't leave me!" Keiko yelled.

Yusuke listened to all of the voices around him until he heard one that wasn't among his friends, "Yes just a little more and then you're gone! Oh I can't wait! Geez this guy was too easy for me."

He growled as he listened to Takumi. Turning to her voice he allowed his powers to rise further than he'd ever allowed. Viciously he cried, "Spirit Gun!"

Takumi watched as the blue light flew towards her. No one had ever broken through that spell. As the light smashed into her the pain filled her entire body like water rushing over a beach. How could anyone be this strong? Finally she closed her eyes and allowed the darkness to take her.

Yusuke felt drained and he watched his opponent fall. The rest of the battles would be up to Kurama but if he stayed on his feet long enough then Team Urameshi would have a victory.

"1…2…3…4…5! Takumi has failed to rise making Yusuke the winner of Round Two! The score is now tied one to one! Teams please choose your next fighters!"

Kurama seeing that he was the only one able to fight left Sasha and Yusuke to be tended to by Kuwabara and Hiei. Silently he went to the center of the ring and waited. He smiled when he saw who it was. The demon slipped forward allowing the sun to reflect off of his bluish scales revealing the gold highlights. His eyes were dark blue and complimented his blood red fighter's robes. There was no doubting that he was a snake demon. Revenge on this demon would be sweet.

Next Time:

Hiei here and Kurama is fighting a snake demon by the name of Setto Yammia. Apparently these two have a history because Kurama is enjoying his revenge upon this demon. However this leaves Setto utterly confused until he finds out about Kurama's past. But what is this grudge that Kurama holds against this creature? Find out on Youko's Revenge.
