Kurama's Spring Flower

Chapter Eighty Six

Third Person's POV

Outside of the tournament building, those forced to stand outside due to not having a ticket hear Koto announce as they watch the televised version of events, "Team Urameshi and Team Masho each have one remaining person in condition to fight. By default, the winner of this match will advance to the semifinals." A familiar female that possesses a light blue kimono and long greenish cyan hair slowly walks closer to the building, catching the attention of two male Demons, one who has black hair and a red bandana and the other with blonde long hair. "Hey, Keek, look what we got here." The dark haired Demon with the red bandana says as the two Demons block the young maiden's path. "What's your name, princess?" The girl give a bow in greeting as she answers politely, "I am Yukina, of the Ice World. It's very nice to meet you." And with that a very cold wisp of wind hits them, making them go pale and start shivering. "Do you know where I could find a ticket booth for the tournament?" Yukina continues to be polite to them. "Oh, sure, sister, like it hasn't been sold out for a week." The Demon snaps at her. "Even the scalpers went home!" This makes the Blonde haired Demon join in his friends yelling by cursing, "Damn it! I'd pay 50 G for a ticket." Yukina looks saddened by this as she lowers her head and say, "I see. Then I came all of this way for nothing."

"Will the last member of Team Masho please enter the ring?" The Demons watch Koto call out. And as Risho steps forward some Demon yells out to him, "You better not blow this like your buddies did!" Another then yells, "Yeah! Give us a kill!" And another yells, "Give us his head!" Koto raises her hand up as she says to the two fighters, "Slap on your game hats, boys. This fight decides the round." Botan looks at Risho with nervousness and yet anticipation as she says, "Let's see what this meanie looks like." The cloak is removed swiftly as Risho speaks, "Sorry to say, Yusuke Urameshi, but you're going to die without ever laying a finger on me." His words make Akina look away from Kurama so that she could glare at the man that dared say such words. She is a bit taken a back to see that Risho is a rather thin and tall young man, with pale skin that make it easy to see such pronounced eyebags under his narrow, brown eyes. Risho seems to posses a nose that although small is slightly pointy in the middle. His hair was as black as his cloak and is only neck-length. As for clothing, Risho is wearing black pants and shirt, with an orange sash across his shoulders. He also has a brown obi-sash around his waist. The orange sash bears two red gemstones which are placed on his shoulders.

"What?" Yusuke asks him in an annoyed tone, leading to Risho releasing a smug chuckle. "Begin!" Koto shouts into her microphone, allowing Yusuke to start charging at the remaining Shinobi. "All right, I'm kickin' your ass out of principal." Yusuke shouts at him. "Stop this fight immediately." The announcer voice came from the speakers, making Yusuke trip and crash into the ground as he had tried to halt his running in response to this announcement. Whilst Akina and Goro glare at the box where they know the rich men influencing the happenings of the tournament are sitting, both thinking, 'What now?' "Stop the fight? What for?" Botan asks, confused as to why the announcer has ordered this. "They're up to something." Kurama says as a look of concern blooms onto his face. Yusuke stands up, rubbing his head whilst Koto looks nowhere in particular confused as to why the fight must stop, leading to her saying, "Tournament Committee, please clarify. Why have you interrupted this fight?" Yusuke all so curious as well as annoyed adds, "Yeah, more importantly, why'd you make me look like a fool?"
