Yu Yu Hakusho: Roses of Red and Black
Chapter 3:
Falling From Grace
Juu watched as Kira's body came flying towards him, at the last moment before impact flipping into the air, hair flowing like a whirlwind behind him. He came down, his foot striking the back of Kira's head viciously with the ball, knocking him forward. Juu rushed forward again, knowing that Kira would expect a similar tactic, hiding a smirk. As he neared Kira he devised the plan he'd use this time, and right before impact, he watched Kira sidestep, immediatly stopping his own momentum to reverse it and spin around, striking Kira's face with the back portion of his fist.
Blood flew the air as Kira was pushed back, Juu pushing ever on. Kira stumbled backwards, trying to regain his balance, when Juu fell back, leaning on his hands as he rose his legs to sweep Kira's legs out from under him. He quickly jumped back up as Kira fell and rose his hand high up, smashing his palm down into Kira's stomach.
Kat stood there on the sidelines, watching silently, unamazed, this was nothing new to her or Rushio. Kenosuke and Asaka, on the other hand, were amazed. They had seen Juu back in the room, when he had seemed like a cannibal, but they had also heard alot about him, also figuring much from his aura. He was a Chaos Mage, A Necromancer, a Shadow Demon, and he had some sort of eerie control over black roses, yet he fought so savagely. It was as if, as if the fire of the fight and the fact that he could very well loose his life ignited some sort of cannibal within him.
This was not the case, however, as Kat and Rushio knew. Juu loved a challenge, and knew that Kira, as well as many others in this tournament, would fall quite easily to one of his demonic or magic abilities, and preferred the challenge, to fight with his fights and feet. He used only his body as a weapon, which in Juu's case, it was. After what most people had heard of the terror "Juu Kurai Yukio", it seemed simply like a fall from grace, but it wasn't. It was merely his version of "fun".
Juu wiped a speck of blood off of his cheek and backed up to give Kira time to rush at him. He stood there, arms at his side, waiting calmly, and motioned with a jerk of his head for Kira to come at him. He watched the feline demon's body rush at him, and smirked, this would be great. Kira came at him, but realized the trap all too late: Juu quickly formed his right hand into a ridgehand* and swung at Kira, slamming the side of his hand into Kira's temple.
The Cat was knocked to the ground, purring weakly. Juu walked over to Kira, smiling devilishly, "Are you ready to die?" He rose his palm to deliver the final blow to Kira, poison issuing through his voice. As the palm struck thin air, he suddenly found Kira no where in sight. Twisting around, this way and that, frantically, looking for him, "Where the hell is he?" Juu whispered to himself, and stood up, glancing around.
"Behind you," A voice whispered in his ear, causing Juu to turn and kick immediatly with the back heel of his foot, hitting only thin air. He growled as he noticed what had happened: Kira was only testing him, now he fought for real. Well, then, the savage was about to get a little sophisticated himself. He stood there, waiting silenlty, watching the black blur pass infront of him, over and over again, able to define a few physical features to tell it was Kira and not some mind trick.
He sensed a momentum shift and rose his left arm up to block a kick, and then ducked to block another, followed by a series of blocks, ducks and hops. Kira landed few blows on the windlike Juu, who even when struck seemed unaffected. After landing from a hop, he saw an arm punching at him from the front, having a solution for that as well. He brought his arms up and, palms facing inward, brought them in forcefully, creating an 'x', which successfully pushed one bone one way and the other a different way, snapping Kira's right arm.
"You...monster..." Kira grumbled, and withdrew his arm slowly, letting out a loud shriek. Juu grabbed his hair and pulled him closer, bringing his leg back and beginning to knee him in the stomach repeatedly. "This ends now, Cat Demon," Juu growled and held Kira's head straight, pushing down on his spine. It began to splinter under the pressure, but it wouldn't be enough: He rose his hand in a knifehand** and brought it down, successfully shattering Kira's spine, and killing him almost immediatly.
Juu dropped the lifeless body and stood there, looking to the referee then to the other member of Kira's team, horrified to have seen their master so viciously slaughtered. He rose both hands up and made a simple gesture for them to come towards him, "Come, all of you," He laughed as he slowly dematerialized into darkness. His blood red eyes were the last thing to go before he became pure blackness, and stood there, a complete shroud. "Let's give this crowd a bloodbath."

Notes:
*Ridgehand - A type of "hand strike", where the knuckles and such are facing upwards. The fingers are pointed out, pressed against each other, and the thumb is folded underneath the fingers, creating a ridge, which is what this attack strikes with
**Knifehand - A type of handstrike, completely the same as the above one, except for one aspect: the opponent is struck with the blade of your hand [the side where your pinky is], which in theory has a knife-like shape, I guess. Blame those who created Tae Kwon Doe for that referance.
Short, I know, the next chapter will be longer. Soon I'll be able to update more: School's ending. Today was my last full day, and the next three school days [Thursday, Friday, Monday] are half-days for exams, so I'll be able to write more. I've been writing alot of the other fics, my original ones, so once I'm out of this fic, expect updates to come alot more, because I've probably got 10-15 chapters of some of the other stories allready written because I get inspired by moments, and have to do what inspires me and in what fic.
