"Do you think you could find both...all on your own, Hiei?" She asked sadly to the fire demon who was walking away.
"Don't get your hopes up." He replied, "I have come for what I came for and have no bus...
"He will never accept the truth. The more he lashes out in his mind, the more painful the affects of the tree becomes." Hayami said as Toguro lashed out more, letting the tree wrap more vines around his body, trapping him completely in its grasp. "It's just the plant's nature, only your mind could kill you." Hayami said explained, "I guess this is why it became my favorite killing plant. The only demon you'll always face is your own self."
"Uh Hayami. If I ever did something that pisses you off I'm sorry." Yusuke said in apology,
"Me too." Mitari agreed, now was grateful that he stayed on her good side,
"Are you gonna be okay?" Ranumi asked in concern as she walked closer to her sister and gently held her arm,
"I'll be fine." Hayami reassured her as she placed a hand on her head, "I just need a minute to calm myself. The amount of restraint that I had to put myself into just a few minutes ago is now giving me a bit of a headache."
"Restraint?" Kurama asked,
"Yeah. I had to keep myself from lashing out in anger and completely forced my whole body to try and not do that." Hayami explained, "After hearing Gourmet say those things that are constantly replaying in my mind, it only made angrier at myself for that matter."
"We're just glad you didn't go on with another blinding rage." Kurama said as he comfortingly placed his hand on her shoulder in which she smiled. "Now only two remain in our path."
"Right." Yusuke said as he faced Sensui, "Your end of the world is dwindling, Sensui and I trust you don't want to be plant food or face Hayami's wrath when she's really pissed of. Give Kuwabara back to us like you promised!"
"Huh, no need to get heated, Yusuke." Sensui said, "I've kept my word, he's no longer in my possession."
"What?" He asked as the team saw that the boat the Kuwabara was supposed to be on is currently empty,
"No." Mitari said,
"But I never saw him moved." Kurama said,
"Nor sensed him moved at all." Ranumi said,
"You bastard!" Yusuke said in anger only for Sensui to tilt his head in a direction to which Hayami followed,
"Guys, look over there." Hayami said pointing at the side of the pool of water was Kuwabara sitting in the ground, still all tied up.

"Kuwabara?! What the hell are you doing over there?!" Yusuke asked in confusion as they ran towards him,
Kurama kneeled down and removed the cloth tied to his mouth as he coughed a little before breathing.
"Geez, not being able to tell you guys how to fight... that's worst than dying." Kuwabara said,
"Stay focus, how did you get over here from the boat?" Hayami asked, "Needles to say all tied up for that matter."
