Possession
chapter 2

"Ooo...my head hurts and I ache all over. I thought I'd blasted that ugly youkai to space already?" Yuusuke rubbed his head and found himself on his own futon in his house.
He saw Keiko's concerned look and grinned.
"Worried 'bout me, Keiko-chan?"
Keiko was silent, and Yuusuke sensed something amiss in their inquietude when he saw that everyone else was around. Wait, Yukina was missing, though. Yuusuke narrowed his eyes a little, but quickly became himself again and asked Keiko why the big crowd.
Keiko explained to Yuusuke about how he was possessed by that youkai's mind-skills, and even as the youkai died, it forced Yuusuke into killing Hiei.
"Hiei...Hiei is dead?!" Yuusuke whispered uncertainly.
Shizuru eyed Yusuuke from a corner as she took a long puff from her cigarette, and left, not wanting to get involved. "Hey bro, if you wanna live, I guess we should pack," she said in Kuwabara's head and broke the psychic link quickly before Yuusuke felt it.
Kuwabara's jaw dropped at Shizuru, who made a quick exit, then picked it up, adjusting his chin back into the right place before eyeing Yuusuke as well.
Kurama almost choked on his words as he tried to explain how Hiei died. Keiko hushed him and offered to tell her version. Giving him a comforting squeeze on the arm, she gestured for him to leave the room. Kurama did as he was told, and was glad to leave the room, where the murderer was.
One hour after the other, everyone was assured of Yuusuke being well again. Keiko was left with Yuusuke as Atsuko stumbled out of the house to buy more sake.
Yukina, wearing her usual kimono, entered politely after knocking. Her gaze met Yuusuke's and it burned through his eyes. Flames were in her eyes as she held out a hirui-seki, representing her other half. Her twin.
Keiko offered her to sit and stay for lunch from the living room while she walked to the kitchen.
Having the coast clear, Yuusuke sat up, glaring back at Yukina. The room's temperature was instantly lowered to ice. Yukina's Youki flared around her like green flames, fanned and fed by rage which she kept in her blood. Yuusuke would not lose either. He reached out a hand and gripped Yukina's throat tightly.
Yukina struggled, dropped Hiei's Hirui-seki and wrapped her fingers around his wrist, planning on turning his blood into ice. Yuusuke looked at her and chortled, taunting her that she was such a child. He tore off Yukina's own Hirui-seki off her neck and pocketed it after taking a careful look at it.
"Go...to...hell......you...you.." Yukina's tight voice was immediately cut off by a burst of Reiki emitted from Yuusuke's palm that blew her head off instantly and messily. Yukina's decapitated body dropped to the floor with a dull thud as her dark, fire-colored blood sprayed from her arteries from her neck like a little fountain. The white but bloodied tip of her spinal cord could be seen protruding from her mangled neck. A spray of blood colored the white curtains Keiko had changed that morning...
******
Keiko dropped her spatula when she entered Yuusuke's room. Yukina's head was at least a full metre from her body, her bloodied corpse at Yuusuke's feet as he smiled viciously like a snake. Yuusuke looked at his wrist for a second and shook off the ice. The cold stung right to his wrist-bone. He cursed at the dead koorime and gave the body a good kick, landing it nicely at Keiko's feet. Keiko immediately ran, muffling her shout with her hand as tears of fear started clouding her vision.
Somewhere in Yuusuke, a voice pled for him to spare Keiko.
He scooped up Yukina's head and stroked her sea-green hair lightly, as if it was such a pity to lose a beautiful youkai like that. He licked the blood off the side of her crudely cut-off neck. It tasted sweet, though mixed with bits of her charred flesh, and had a little tang in it.
Too lazy to clean up, he walked out of his room, out of the house and fired a Reigun at it. The gas-cooker in his kitchen blew up and fire caught the planks of the floor, the wooden beams, doors and the roof. Smiling to himself, he walked off.
He was heading towards Kurama's home.

How was it?^-^
I've already finished part 3,4 and planned the ending...
Did it in a spur of want and evilness.
Do I qualify to join the EFWC?
C & Cs are very welcome. Please don't flame me about killing off anyone!
