A Warm Compassion | A Hiei Love Story

Yusuke vs. Toguro pt. 4

Third POV

"I've been pathetic, but I won't let you take anymore of my friends." Yusuke said sadly but loud enough for Toguro to hear,

His energy made everyone left in the stadium gasp in awe to feel such a strong power from a human.

"Look at it." Toya said,

"I'd say the wind is sudden not the same." Jin said,

"For all those listening to this broadcast, Yusuke emitting a strange energy, like anything we've seen from him before." Koto commented,

"His feelings, I can practically taste them all in the air." Botan said,

"The energy within Yusuke's body is changing dramatically." Kurama said as he and Hayami held Kuwabara's body,

"The loss of his friend is too great a shock." Koenma said,

"His emotions have now broken the wall." Hayami said as she saw Tetsuya returning to her body and Lala changing back to its normal size, flying towards its owner's shoulder,

Yusuke started to slowly walk over to the demon who took his friend's life and started to reminisce all the things Kuwabara with up and up to this point. All the memories either good or bad was flooding through his mind.

"Now let's do this. I've already said that I'll never forgive you." Yusuke said stopping in his tracks, "Now I won't be able to forgive myself, so let's just do this." He said still having his heand facing the ground with a miserable look on his face. Saying this, his energy blew like a strong wind as it continues to emit from his body.

"I need to thank you Yusuke for finally realizing your power. You see I couldn't finish this story with just satisfaction until you had become like me." Toguro said and he was about to charge, "Now your power has reached the level of mine!"

"You know that's a load of crap, Toguro." Yusuke muttered with no emotion whatsoever,

"Is that so?!" Toguro said and punched Yusuke on the cheek knocking him towards the ring wall as his back was crashed onto it, causing his shirt to be completely ripped off from his body. "You see, I could tell that didn't actually hurt you. Earlier that punch would've left you unconscious, but now you can take it without even blocking and still get up to fight. If that's not a sign of equal power then what is?"

"You were right in one thing, Toguro. That punch didn't hurt me." Yusuke said as he got back up to his feet,

"Yusuke's truly done it. He's learned to battle on a level playing field with Toguro." Hiei said,

"Level... And yet at the same time it's completely different." Kurama said,

Yusuke's energy started to visibly show again, but this time, red and blue colored auras were like blinking in rhythm as it flowed throughout the stadium once more.

"Both their powers are mixing together." Chu said, "It's the rear dinking dire mates. It's got the strength of a youth but for some reason it doesn't seem harmful."

"Yeah, it's weird." Rinku said, "All of a sudden, I feel a whole lot better. Kinda like I'm being protected or something."

"It's such a melancholy wind he be firin'." Jin said, "Like I can feel the sad on his inner-side pourin' out into a big black empty."

"Yusuke is locked in a struggle with his own emotions." Toya said, making his shinobi friend look at him, "A sense of guilt is reverting his power."

"His defenses go outward, guarding all of us in the stadium while his attack is aimed solely on himself." Ryuji said,

"Are you hurting, Yusuke? Feeling guilty?" Toguro mocked as Yusuke gritted his teeth in anger, making the demon lightly chuckle, "Don't worry, it's like the chicken pocks. Once you get over it the first time, it never comes back. Think Yusuke, what do you owe these people? What do you let their weakness drag you down? Throw off the bags of guilt and you can become powerful as just as me. Give yourself control! Believe in nothing but your own strength and it never lets you down." He said clenching his fist as Yusuke glared at him also clenching his fist, causing the demon to chuckle,
