A Yu Yu Hakusho Story #13

The next fight. Yusuke is sleeping against a wall exhausted from his fight, Hiro is sleeping next to him, and Kuwabara, Kurama, and Hiei are fighting over the next fight.1

"I'm gonna fight the next goon," Kuwabara said cockily.2

"No way, the next fight is mine," Hiei said gruffly.3

"I wish to fight as well," Kurama said calmly.4

"You all decide, I'll tend to Yusuke's wounds," Samana said politely. Samana walked over to Yusuke.5

"I'm fighting--"6

"No me---"7

"I shall be the one to fight."8

"Umm...guys, could you please choose?" Juri said looking at them.9

"We'll do paper, scissors, rock to determine the fight," Kurama suggested. Hiei and Kuwabara nodded.10

"Paper, scissors, rock," They chanted.11

"Oh, man..." Kuwabara said.12

"O well," Kurama said. Hiei smirked and hopped into the ring.13

"Okay, the next fight is decided! Hiei vs. Nobu!" Juri said to the crowd, the crowd cheered. Nobu was a tall  and muscular man, he had long black hair and green eyes, he wore a dark blue shirt and blues pants. Nobu got in a fighting stance, and so did Hiei.14

"GOOD LUCK, HIEI!" Samana shouted to him. Hiei blushed slightly.15

"What are you waiting for, Shorty?" Nobu said cockily.16

"This." Hiei replied, then disappeared.17

"What? Where did he go?"18

"Wow people, it looks like Hiei disappeared into thin air!" Koto said in the stands. Nobu was standing in the ring looking for Hiei, but  suddenly Hiei was hitting him across the stage. Nobu caught one of Hiei's many punches.19

"Is that your best?"20

"Of course not," Hiei said unsheathing his katana. Nobu backed away from Hiei unsheathing his own katana. They charged at each other, their swords collided.21

"Face it, you can't hold out much longer," Nobu said struggling to hold Hiei back.22

"I think you have it backwards," Hiei said smirking. Nobu's blade cracked, and Hiei sliced through Nobu's blade.23

"Wow everyone! Hiei just went straight through Nobu's blade!" Koto said. Nobu fell to the ground in shock, and Hiei pointed his katana at Nobu's throat.24

"I give up!" Nobu said scared.25

"Coward," Hiei said annoyed, and withdrew his katana away from Nobu. Nobu looked up and tripped Hiei, "What the Hell! You gave up!"26

"It’s not over until Juri calls it."27

"Have it your way." Hiei put his katana through Nobu's stomach. Nobu gasped and fell to the ground.28

"I-I-I'll start the c-c-c-count," Juri said stuttering, "1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10! Hiei has won!" Hiei walked out of the ring.29

"Good job, Hiei," Samana said while putting a bandage on Yusuke's cheek. Hiei smirked.30

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~31

"Excuse me, but we have to clean the ring of blood. So the next fight will be delayed," Juri said in the middle of the ring that had blood spots everywhere, "So feel free to walk around for a few minutes."32

"Damnit I wanted to fight!" Kuwabara pouted.33

"Well I did as well," Kurama said calmly.34

"I too wanted to fight," Samana said, "Yusuke don't you dare take off that bandage."35

"Oh come on, they are just scratches," Yusuke whined.36

"Scratches my ass! The bandage is soaked in blood!" 37

*humph* Yusuke folded his arms.38

"You act just like Hiro sometimes." Samana rolled her eyes. Samana walked over to Hiro and set him on her lap to rest a bit.39

"Aww, how cute, but your boyfriend isn't in that love fest," Yusuke said snickering. Samana glared at him. Hiro woke up and stared at the ring, then at Samana.40

"Mom, why is the ring all bloody?" Hiro asked.41

"Well...um...you see---" Samana began.42

"Some guys got beat up," Hiei said. Hiro looked up at Samana once again, and she nodded to him.43

"So you won?" Hiro asked.44

"Yeah, I did...how did you know I was fighting, you were asleep."45

"Umm...well...you see---"46

"I told you not to do that Hiro!" Samana yelled.47

"What did he do?"48

"He got your telepathic powers, and he read your mind." Samana said glaring at Hiro. Hiei rolled his eyes.49

"Excuse me everyone, the next fight will begin shortly. Please return to your seats, and Juri, if you can hear this...GET OVER HERE!" Koto said on a loudspeaker.50

"I will fight--" Kurama began.51

"No way man, I'm fighting!" Kuwabara said.52

"I wish to fight as well," Samana stated.53

"Urameshi team, we need your next fighter," Juri said from the ring standing next to a man with short gray spiky hair,  had pale blue eyes, he wore a long black cape, black shirt, black pants, and black boots. The man whispered something to Juri, "Excuse me, but the Nakano Team wishes to suggest a fighter."54

"We're listening..." Kurama said.55

"Team Nakano wishes to fight Samana."56

"HAH!" Samana said as she stuck out her tongue and skipped to the ring. Kurama sat next to Yusuke, and Kuwabara folded his arms  and glared at Samana.57

"The next fight is decided, Takashi vs. Samana!" Juri hopped off the ring. Samana got in her stance as Takashi did.58

"Whenever you're ready," Takashi said cockily, "I'll even give you a free shot." Takashi stood straight up getting out of his stance.59

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm stronger than I look," Samana smirked. Yusuke and the others watched intently. Samana's hair began to float, and it soon turned black as night. Her eyes glowed, and she grew black wolf ears. She grew fangs, and her nails got long and sharp.60

"Wha-wha-what are you?" Takashi stuttered in shock.61

"I'm the one that will defeat you."62

"GO MOMMY! BEAT HIM!" Hiro yelled. Takashi looked at Hiro, then back at Samana who was now standing right in front of him. Takashi backed up a little and pulled out a dagger.63

"A dagger, I'm sooo scared," Samana said cockily stepping forward. Takashi swung his dagger toward Samana's head. But Samana dodged and he got a few hairs instead, "MY HAIR!" Samana stepped back and held her hair.64

"What the hell, it's just hair," Yusuke whispered to Hiei.65

"You should see how long she takes to brush it in the morning," Hiei replied.66

"You'll pay for that Takashi!" Samana yelled. Takashi stepped forward and repeatedly tried to stab Samana with his dagger, but she dodged every time. Samana was soon to the edge of the ring. Takashi tripped Samana and pushed her over the edge of the ring, "A lot of good that will do ya, I have 10 counts before I'm out."67

"That wasn't the point," Takashi snickered. He ran from Samana.68

"You coward!" Takashi stopped and picked up Hiro, "HIRO!"69

"HEY YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" Hiei said getting up to punch Takashi.70

"Sorry, but he can, and if you help, then you forfeit this match," Koto said.71

"Damnit!" Hiei yelled still standing. Samana ran to Takashi and Hiro. She was about to punch Takashi, but he held the dagger to Hiro's throat.72

"Take another step and I kill him," Takashi snickered.73

"You bastard, you have no honor," Samana said with tears in her eyes.74

"Too bad for you, this tournament doesn't care for honor."75

"Mommy..." Hiro said scared.76

"5...6...7--" Juri counted. Samana and Takashi jumped back into the ring, "And after 7 counts, both fighters returned to the ring.77

"Don't hurt him," Samana pleaded.78

"This look on your face is so priceless, I rather like it," Takashi smiled evilly. Samana's had tears streaming down.79

"Just don't hurt him!" Samana pleaded.80

"Aww...You know what, I won't hurt him," Takashi said setting Hiro on the ground, "But since you asked so nicely---" Takashi stabbed the dagger through Hiro's back.81

"Mom---" Hiro said just before falling to the ground and died. Samana kneeled and cried. Takashi laughed maniacally. Samana looked up with tears in her eyes, and the look of pure hatred on her face.82

"You will pay for this," Samana said through gritted teeth. Samana's eyes glowed brighter than the sun.83

"Oh my gosh! Takashi just murdered someone that I'm just now getting information on to be Hiro, Samana and Hiei's son!" Koto yelled to the crowd. Hiei glared at Koto, "ButThisInformationCouldBeWrong." Koto said scared of what Hiei would do to her for giving out personal information. Takashi backed away from Samana. Samana was floating off the air a little bit, her hair was floating up, her eyes were bright lights, and she bared her fangs. Samana screamed and then everything went silent and the entire stadium was engulfed in a huge blast of bright light. When the light faded, Takashi was in ashes, and the parts of the stadium were demolished, "I really can't explain this one people."84

"Well Takashi is in a pile of ashes so Team Urameshi wins!" Juri yelled. Samana jumped off the ring and walked next to Hiei.85

"Remind me not to get on your bad side," Yusuke laughed. Samana looked at Yusuke with teary eyes and Yusuke immediately stopped laughing.86

"Let's go back to the hotel," Hiei said putting his arm around Samana to console her.87

~~~~~~~~~~~88

Back at the hotel, Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara sat on the couches talking, while Samana and Hiei are in the bedroom.89

"That has to suck for her," Kuwabara said.90

"You could be a little more caring," Kurama suggested. 91

"She must be crying her eyes out," Yusuke said.92

"I don't think she'll be fighting next round," Kuwabara said.93

"Well no shit Sherlock."94

"Yusuke, Kuwabara, we should keep it down," Kurama said turning on the TV. Yusuke and Kuwabara nodded and watched TV. A few minutes later Hiei came out the bedroom that he and Samana had been talking in, "How is she?"95

"She's asleep," Hiei said calmly.96

"Hiei, what did you do to get her asleep?" Yusuke snickered.97

"Yusuke, shut up. She cried herself to sleep." Hiei glared at Yusuke. Hiei looked at the mat near the door where everyone’s shoes were. There were black boots (Hiei's), white chucks (Yusuke's), black shoes (Kuwabara's), dark brown slip-ons (Kurama's), light blue slip-ons (Samana's), and a small pair of lime green chucks (Hiro's).98

"You ok Hiei?" Kurama asked.99

"Feh, fine. Why would I bet upset?" Hiei said.100

"Cause he was your son too." Hiei looked away,  then walked toward the door.101

"Where are you going?" Yusuke asked.102

"Out for a walk," Hiei said before he left.103

~~~~~~~~~~104

Hiei is walking around in the woods near the arena.105

"Damnit, I wish there was something I could do for Samana," Hiei said to himself, "She is just so down, and there is nothing I can do." Hiei continued to walk, but heard something behind him so turned around, "Who's there?" No answer so he continued on, but he heard another noise, "Who's there, show yourself!" No answer, so he sat down. Something moved in the trees, Hiei turned his head, and there was a girl standing there. She had pink hair and sky blue eyes, she was kind of short, she wore a long white gown, "Who are you?" Hiei stood up.106

"I am Yumi, I have been watching your team fight, and I rather enjoyed the last one," the girl said.107

"You mean what Samana did?"108

"Yes. It was incredible," Yumi said jumping down from the tree to stand in front of Hiei. She was a little bit taller than both Hiei and Samana, but not too much taller, "I'm quite happy that her powers developed."109

"What are you talking about, how did you know about her powers?"110

"You mean she hasn't told you?"111

"Told me what?"112

"Heh heh heh."113

"TOLD ME WHAT!?"114

"That the human she lives with isn't her real mother."115

"WHAT!? What do you mean 'not her real mother'!?" Hiei yelled while taking a grip on Yumi's gown collar.116

"Oh calm down," Yumi said calmly making no intention to lower his hands.117

"Then tell me what you  mean!"118

"Let me ask you this, Samana is both a half wolf demon and telekinetic, correct?"119

"Yes," Hiei said loosening his grip.120

"And you know her father was a full wolf demon named Tajii, correct?"121

"Yes."122

"And you also know that the human she lives with has no powers at all, correct?"123

"Yes."124

"Meaning she has no telekinetic powers, and that proves that she cannot be Samana's real mother. For her real mother would have to have some form of telekinetic powers."125

"Yes but how did you know all that?" 126

"You will figure it out for yourself," Yumi said that and disappeared into thin air.127

"COME BACK HERE!" Hiei demanded, but there was no answer, "What did she mean by all of that, and how did she know?" Hiei ran back to the hotel as fast as he could.128

~~~~~~~~~~~129

"WHAT!?" Yusuke yelled after Hiei had told them all about the newly acquired information.130

"Yusuke, quiet. We don't want to wake Samana," Kurama said shushing Yusuke.131

"What was her name again?" Boton asked.132

"She said her name was Yumi," Hiei said.133

"I'm going to do a search on this mysterious Yumi."134

"What's going on?" Samana said rubbing her eye and shutting the bedroom door.135

"Nothing," Everyone said in unison.136

"Ok now I know something is up, y'all said something at the same time."137

"No, n-n-nothing's up," Yusuke stuttered.138

"Come on, what's going on. You can't hide it forever."139

"You aren't living with your real mother," Hiei blurted out.140

"HIEI!" Kurama, Kuwabara, Keiko, Boton, and Yusuke yelled at the same time.141

"What!?"142

"H-h-h-how did you find out?" Samana stuttered.143

"Hiei met some girl named Yumi---" Yusuke began.144

"WHERE? WHERE DID YOU SEE HER!?"145

"Jeez, chill out. We don't even know if it is true or not."146

"Tell me where you found her!?"147

"Sama---" Hiei began.148

"TELL ME!" Samana said taking hold of Hiei's shirt collar on looked at him straight in the eye. Her eyes were full of shock.149

"I saw her in the forest near the---" Samana rushed out the door, slamming it behind her, "---arena..."150

"Whoa, what was that about?" Yusuke asked.151

"Beats me, I've never seen her act like this," Kurama said.152

~~~~~~~~~~~153

Samana is running through the forest looking in every direction as she runs.154

"YUMI!?" She called, "WHERE ARE YOU? I KNOW YOU'RE HERE!" Samana stopped dead and looked around, "I can sense your presence, come out!"155

"Fine, you finally found me," Yumi said calmly, then appeared in front of her, "Nice to know your powers are getting better."156

"Why! Why did you tell Hiei!?"157

"Well, I figured he would find out sooner or later."158

"But nobody needed to know!"159

"Calm down, my child."160

"Why, what did you tell them?" Samana asked more calmly.161

"They would have soon found out on their own. You know sooner or later you will have to face our team. Both me and your father."162

"I have never seen him, how will I know?"163

"You just will."164

"But...Mother..."165
