before!]

Juri: Welcome to all!! Thankyou for your patience for this trial!
And here are the semi-finalists who are entering the arena!
Koto: We'll be able to start! The semi-final... Here comes
the moment of truth!!

[Kurama, Kuwa and Hiei enter through one door, Team Uratogi through
another]
Juri: You can enter!! Kyah
Page 119
Crowd: What? They're only three?
The quitters!!
They've pulled out!!
Shishi: Where are the other two? They've skipped out?
Kuwa: They find you too feeble.
Juri: Choose the mode of combat.
Page 120
Hiei: Stop your chatter! I want to start.
Kuro: [Blowing bubbles with his bubblegum] Lad. You have
a motivated air. This is a first for you?
Hiei: Yes and the last... It's me who will finish you.
[Kuro's bubble bursts]
Hiei: I feel I'm in a bad mood. I don't cope badly with stress.
Page 121
Shishi: Don't get carried away. We'll choose with these, okay?
[Holds up a pair of dice - one die with the names of Urameshi Team one
on each side, the other for Uratogi Team. The sixth face on each
die is marked 'free'.] A name on each face of the dice. The
free face permits the choice of a player. If a name comes up twice,
he can fight again... assuming that he's still alive!
Hiei: You are comical. If the Mask or Yusuke are chosen I will
go in their place.
Shishi: Agreed. These aren't the victories which will make you
famous.
Note: The dice, that's my way!
[The dice come up Hiei and Makintarou]
Page 122
Hiei: Pff I'm obliged to confront such a wretch...
Makin: Brat, stop the chitchat.
[Hiei smiles]
Juri: First match, Hiei against Makintarou. The style of combat
will be the duel in five matches.
Page 123
Juri: Let's go!!
Makin: Come on, I'm waiting for you. Has someone pissed in his
pants?
Koto: The two opponents are defiant in their regard. Who will
attack ?!
[Hiei unsheathes his sword]
Makin: A sword, very amusing.
Page 124
Kurama: The match is underway...
Kuwa: ?
Makin: Heh heh heh... Well? That's it? Your pants
are wet?
Hiei: You're funny. You don't feel anything remarkable?
Makin: What are you saying? Come on, attack me!!

[Hiei holds up Makintarou's left arm]
Hiei: I've already done it.
[Blood is spurting from Makintarou's stump.]
Makin: AAARRHHHHH
Page 126
Hiei: Let it fall. [Tosses arm away]
Makin: Roohhhh!! Grr!!! You dare!!! The Masakari
ken!! [His right hand forms into an axe-like blade]
Page 127
[Makintarou attacks, apparently splitting Hiei in two]
Makin: Heh!! You're dead!!
Page 128
Hiei: [Crouching on top of Makintarou's head, sword raised] You're
dreaming...
Makin: Huh?
Page 129
[Hiei runs his sword through Makintarou's head]
Makin: Erps
[Kurama's calm, Kuwa's gaping, Shishi's wide-eyed, Makin's dead.]
Hiei: Someone throw the dice? I have a strong desire to continue.
