YYH Beyond: Episode 2 {first half}
{Previously: The YYH Gang reunited over a picnic,
but a mysterious force appeared and threatened peace.
Yusuke has now challenged the monster,
but can he prevail?}

[The sky is clear, pan through the trees, a slight breeze picks up and dies as a clearing appears with Yusuke and a Mud Monster ready to do battle. Kurama and Kuwabara stand in the background with Hiei apart from them.] Yusuke: Are you ready for this? [powers up] Monster: [yawns then assumes fighting stance] If I must, I suppose it doesn’t really matter, I could take a cocky kid like you out in less then a minute. Yusuke: Are you sure? [slight smile] You seem pretty confident seeing you don’t know anything about me! Monster: You’re right, I don’t. [stands straight] Perhaps you can come over and introduce yourself, [points to cheek] and do let your fist do the talking. Yusuke: Ha! Just my style… [runs to the Monster and jumps then throws out his arm coming down on her, hitting her square in the jaw then looks surprised at her lack of response] What the? Monster: [crosses muddy arms] Oh come now, is that all you got? Yusuke: So you’re a little hard headed, we can fix that… [Yusuke starts punching the Monster rapidly in the gut] Hard heads usually mean soft underbellies! [Yusuke continues throwing rapid punches while the monster stands unshaken.] Kuwabara: Incredible, she’s not even flinching! Hiei: How boring, they are both just toying with each other. Kuwabara: Well if you ask my opinion, they shouldn’t even be fighting. Hiei: No one asked your opinion, now did they? That thing came here looking for a fight and that is what it is getting. Kuwabara: [yelling at Hiei] What do you know shorty? Hmph [turns back to the fight and mumbles] She still is a girl and its not right to hit girls. Hiei: Maybe your eyes are closed, but “she” is no longer a she, but a shapeless it. Kuwabara: [yelling again] What does that matter? There still is a girl underneath! Hiei: Fool, that female form you saw before was only a disguise to play on your weakness. Kurama: Kuwabara is right. [pause for Hiei and Kuwabara to listen] What we see now is only a cover for her. Not only was it a means for her earlier escape which now serves to protect her from attacks, but it shields her real power. Like this, we have no way to decipher her true capabilities. [Yusuke takes a break from punching and realizes how beat up his hands are and not even a dent in the Monster.] Monster: Are we through with introductions yet? Yusuke: Heh, not quite, there’s one more move I’d like you to meet. Monster: Well, don’t hold back on my part. [Yusuke points right finger at the Monster while supporting the wrist with his left hand.] * * * [A car is driving and then parks at the side of the road. Shizuru steps out and starts walking but is shortly stoped by Keiko and Yukina.] Keiko: Shizuru? Hi! I didn’t expect to see you here! Shizuru: Well of course I came; didn’t baby bro say that I’d be here as soon as I was done with my job interview? And what are you guys doing over here? Don’t tell me the party is already over. Yukina: Sadly it was cut short due to a sudden burst of energy. Shizuru: Energy? Then I haven’t been loosing my mind. Keiko: The guys went off to see what was going on, but they should have been back by now… Shizuru: [thinks] “Whatever is delaying them, Keiko will be in danger if she goes, I must distract her…” [sees Kazuki in Keiko’s arms] Hey! Who’s this little guy? [picks him up and holds him above her head] I didn’t know you two had a baby… * * * Yusuke: SPIRIT GUN!!! [The energy blast escapes Yusuke’s finger and heads straight towards the Monster. She looks bemused and holds her right hand in front of her. The shot hits her and the clearing lights up. Smoke swirls around where the Monster stood.] Yusuke: Ha! Right on! Who’s cocky now? Monster: [through the smoke] I would say you are. Yusuke: What? Give me a break! Don’t tell me that didn’t even scratch you! Monster: Fine, I won’t…but I’ll give you credit for singeing my suit. [Smoke clears and the Monster is in the same position, but instead of a muddy right hand, a pale one with skinny fingers and sharp nails sticks out.] Kuwabara: See! I told you there was a girl underneath! Hiei: [glares at Kuwabara] Shut up moron! Monster: I’m tired of playing these games with you boy! [steps over to Yusuke then targets hand in front of his face then flexes hand, emitting tremendous energy that knocks him back into a tree] Kuwabara: Urameshi! Kurama: Yusuke! [Yusuke falls to the ground, unconscious.] Hiei: Impressive, [throws off cloak] but it’s my turn now. Monster: I thought the deal was I chose who was next. Hiei: Then excuse me for taking the liberty of making that decision for you. Monster: No need to waste your time, I can take you all out at once if needed. There isn’t one among you strong enough to defeat me. Hiei: Underestimating me will be your downfall. You just seem scared to face me because you know you’ll lose. [pulls out katana] Monster: Let me propose a deal. I’ll choose my next opponent and you can be after him. Hiei: And why should I follow your stupid request? Monster: If anything I’ll be more worn out and you might have a chance. Hiei: That would be a dirty trick on my part. Yusuke: [starts to come too] Hey cool it! I’m not done yet! Hiei: Yes you are! You are in no condition to fight anymore. Yusuke: Sure I am! [Yusuke attempts to get up but holds side in pain and falls over, Kuwabara and Kurama go to him and hold him up.] Kurama: Right now you need to regain your strength; we can take it from here. Monster: [scoffs] Try that, or I can return to Demon World on my own, promising to make no more disturbances in the human world, if I get what I want in my next fight. Kuwabara: Get what you want? What’s that supposed to mean? You won’t tell us who you are, why you’re here, what y… Hiei: Stay out of this you fool! Monster: Oh, But he has a point. I haven’t yet a chance to explain myself. Kurama: Perhaps it would be wiser to hear her out. Hiei: [pauses then sheaths katana] Fine. Do it her way. Monster: [smiles] hmmm Kuwabara: Okay then, you have the chance now so tell us everything you know! Monster: Know? I don’t know. That’s what I’m here for, to investigate. Yusuke: [dryly] Wow, that really explains a lot. Kurama: Clarify. Monster: There’s no need to if I found what I was looking for, [strides towards them and lifts Kurama’s chin with pale hand and nostrils flare] which I’m sure I have…
