The Missing Kitsune

Chapter two

Well, they were at Genkai's Temple. They stood at the top of the stairs, waiting for Genkai to come answer the door. And she did. She walked over to the door and found Icelena and Kaito standing there in the breeze.

"So? What do you need?"

"We have a few questions." Icelena told her.

So they sat in a little triangle on mats, Genkai with a cup of tea. The room seemed peaceful enough. Everything was so calm and still. You could even see the little dust particles in the air. But minds and hearts were anything but calm and still. There was tension in the air. Thick tension. Everything was quiet. Until Genkai spoke.

"So...what kind of questions do you have?"

Icelena and Kaito looked at each other, as if to ask the other one if they wanted to ask the first question. Kaito asked:

"Genkai. We've been seeing...hallucinations...I guess you could say...Kurama's ben absent all of a sudden, he didn't look sick or anything...and both Icelena and I have expirienced these things two nights ago." Icelena took it from there.

"We were really cold all of a sudden. We heard someone knocking on our door. And we saw blood on our wall. We felt someone put their hand on our shoulder then everything went black for the rest of the night."

Genkai sat there and thought for a few moments with her hand to her chin. Then she shook her head.

"Sorry. I don't know of anything like that. I will look it up, though. Let me know of anything else occurs."

They nodded and left.

Now that Icelena was safe at home, or at least she thought, she could relax and forget about this stuff. That's what she thought. But, of course, she was wrong.

Her television, which she did have on and was watching, turned fuzzy then fine again. Icelena noticed this. She got up and looked outside and saw that there was no storm. How could the TV be acting up if there was nothing to cause it to do so? She sat back down on the couch and continued to watch Family Feud when it turned fuzzy once more. And then back again.

"What's wrong with this thing?" she asked herself.

Then it turned off completely. So did the lights. And everything else. It was pitch black. Icelena wondered through the house with a flashlight she found in the kitchen. She was looking for something that might have caused this. Her face was horrified. She drew her ice sword just in case.

Right in front of her appeared Elder Toguro. But as soon as he appeared, he was gone. The lights flickered on again and on the wall written in blood was: "Team Toguro's Revenge" This was bad. This was very bad.

The next day Icelena was sitting in class very cold. But it was fairly warm that day and it was eightly degrees in the classroom. Her skin was warm, though. Boiling, in fact. And she only felt cold on the inside. The chills never reached the surface of her skin. Weird, huh?

She looked across the room. Kaito had come in cold as well. He never said anything, but he and herself were a bit pale. Very slightly, though. No one else but each other noticed. She sighed and tried to pay attention. She looked at Kaito again. To tell you the truth, she never really trusted him much, after the whole 'I'm gonna take your soul and prove I'm better than you' thing. But he was her classmate, and the only one other than herself that knew Kurama's past. So to get Kurama help, she had to depend on Kaito. Even though she didn't like it.

Her worst nightmare: the teacher announced that there will be a test tomarrow on everything they just learned. Crap! Neither her, nor Kaito had any notes. And she knew enough about him that neither of them were about to let their good grades slip. Not at all.

It was lunchtime and Icelena and Kaito sat across from each other at their table. They both hardly ate anything.

"So, Minamino's absent again." Kaito said casualy. Icelena nodded.

"Yes. I'm really worried about him." And she was. The boy she loved oh, so dearly was freaking missing! Why wouldn't she be worried about him? Of course he was the legendary fox demon and had the power to hold his own in almost any fight, but...she still worried about him just the same. She guessed that's what his mother felt like.

"There is something wrong with us, as well. We're both sick or something of that nature. This isn't just a coincedince. I'm sure of it." he told her.

Icelena sat there and played with her food on her tray. They were sick. But...how?

Oh, no. visions again. The whole room turning black...

So? Anyone like it. I'm still hesitant to continue. Reviews make people happy!D
