Chapter 2
The next morning, Kurama helps Yukina to enroll into year 1 class. After the registration, Kurama shows her the way to her classroom.
"If anyone hurt you, telepath me immediately."
"No."
"No?" Kurama getting angry, with the word "No"
"I can't. My power was seal in Makai, Yomi-sama don't allow me to come here with power." Kurama calm
"No wonder I can't feel your aura at all, I thought my wound still need more times to recover." Kurama smile
"Your wound? You are injured?"
"It's getting better, I'll recover very soon. My class is at the opposite building, Y3R1. I'll come over during lunch break."
"Okay."
Yukina looks cute in the school uniform, the class is curious why she is so close to Shuichi.
"Hi, you are the new student?"
"Yes, my name is Yukina."
"Nice meeting you, my name is Meiji."
"How do you get to know Minamino-kun?"
"I can't really remember." Yukina do not wish to tell the truth.
/Flash back/
About 600 years ago, when Yukina is still a small Koorime, she met Youko Kurama.
The king of thieves was wounded and transform himself back to Kitsune, he ran into the ice land, hiding in the snow. His silver white fur can hide perfectly in the ice land, with his power sealing properly in his body, the hunter cannot smell him.
There comes the little Yukina, playing and running in the wide plains. She notice there is a snow ball, walking closer and she found the silver Kitsune. "What a lovely Kitsune! What are you doing here?" Yukina lean closer and hold the Kitsune into her arms.
"Oh no, you are wounded." Yukina saw there is blood stain underneath the Kitsune. Yukina use her healing power to heal the wound.
"You are okay now, kit." Yukina touch on the Kitsune forehead, and rub his ear back.
Never in his life, had no one been so nice to him. Except for those vixens that only come after his appearance and power. He decided to remain as Kitsune, and see what this little Koorime will do.
"Are you afraid of anything? All will be fine; I'll take care of you." Yukina brings the Kitsune back to her "house". The "house" was just a small cave away from the Koorime village. Kurama didn't understand why she stay alone here, Koorime live in pack.
Yukina place the Kitsune on her bedding, cover with a thin cloth.
"I know it might not be warm enough, but this is what I have."
Although Yukina is afraid of fire, but she still try to set up a firework for the Kitsune. By failing few times, hurting herself few times, finally the fire is up.
"Here, little kit. I hope you feel warmer."
That night, Yukina hug the Kitsune into sleep. Kurama had never felt so warm before. This girl is so different.
The next morning, Kurama was wake up by a few snow ball throwing from outside, same for Yukina. Yukina quickly hide the Kitsune behind her, "Don't worry, its okay."
Yukina walks out from the cave, those boys and girls were not friendly at all.
"You bitch, stay away from the ice land!" the boys push hardly on Yukina, she fell. Kurama is getting angry but he decided to stay calm and see what's next.
Yukina didn't answer, and stand up slowly.
"You are not pure Koorime, your mother is dead, and why are you still here?"
Yukina remain silent, the boys and girls leave the cave after humiliated Yukina.
Yukina walks back to the cave, touching the Kitsune tenderly.
"Kit, it's alright now." Kurama isn't afraid at all, he stares at Yukina eyes, blue pale eyes, and she is so beautiful.
"I'm going for a long journey, will you be following me?" asked Yukina, staring at the Kitsune, Kurama lean closer to Yukina, trying to tell her he willing.
"But I'm not sure when the journey will end, or where we'll be ended up with. I hope I can find my twin brother soon."
"brother?" thought Kurama, Koorime is an all female clan, there shouldn't be any male Koorime. He feels more curious now.
Yukina bring the Kitsune and begins with her journey.
Kurama first reveal his true form, is when Yukina was kidnapped by the demon. The demon is trying to torture her, so she will tears and her tears become valuable gem stone. When Kurama safe her from the hand of the demon, Yukina didn't know he is the Kitsune.
"You are?" Yukina looks afraid.
"It's alright, you'll be fine. I'm Youko Kurama."
"Youko Kurama? Kurama-sama, can you help to rescue my little Kitsune?" Yukina beg him.
"Hahaha" Kurama laughed, "Can't you recognize my eyes and hair?"
Yukina stares to Kurama eyes, the sharp crimson eyes, exactly like her Kitsune; the long silver hair, is exactly the color of the Kitsune fur.
"You, you are the Kitsune?"
"Now you recognize me."
Kurama accompanied Yukina in her journey to locate her brother; they fell in love together in the long journey
/end of flash back/
During lunch break, Kurama heads over to Yukina class room to have lunch together. As usual, the female students love to stick around him, "Excuse me, and please leave me and my girlfriend alone."
"Your girlfriend?" shouted the girls.
"Yes, my girlfriend. Yukina Jaganshi."
The girls finally leave with disappointment.
"Love, what is so funny about me?"
"Huh?"
"You've been staring at me, day dreaming, and then giggle yourself."
"You are so cute in this Ningen form." Smile Yukina
"So you love this Ningen body, huh?" Kurama isn't very please
Yukina speak softly, "I love you, regardless of what you are; be it the little Kitsune, the great Youko Kurama, or the cute Minamino Shuichi."
Kurama seems to be satisfied with this answer, he touches Yukina long hair.
"Hello Yukina-san, mind to have lunch together?" Meiji bringing over her bento.
"Hello Meiji-san, if you don't mind Shuichi-kun is here." Yukina reply with a smile
"Of course she doesn't mind, she comes for me, innocent Yuki" thought Kurama while smiling to show friendliness.
"Yukina-san, how do you find your first day in class? If you have anything not clear, you can always come to me." Meiji is the top student in the class.
"It's okay, if there is anything she isn't clear, she can come to me, instead." Before Yukina can reply, Kurama already replied on behalf.
"Of course, Minamino-kun is the top student in the school." Meiji didn't sound so pleasant.
"Meiji-san, your bento looks delicious!" Yukina tries to calm both of them down.
"Perhaps tomorrow I can prepare a set for you."
"You prepare yourself? How nice."
"Yes, I love cooking. You want one for tomorrow?"
"Sure, why not?"
"What about you, Minamino-kun?" Meiji had her eyes open widely looking at him.
"No thank you." Kurama is always calm and cool towards other female.
"Okay then, Yukina-san, I will bring one for you tomorrow."
On the way back to the apartment.
"Kurama, why don't you take one of the bento? It does look delicious."
"Would you stop discussing about the bento?" Kurama isn't very pleased
Both of them remain silent until they reach the apartment.
"Yukina!" shouted Kuwabara.
"Hello Kuwabara-san."
"Nice to see you here, I've forgot to bring the apartment key."
"I thought I'm the one holding the key, why you ask from her?" Kurama is already not in a good mood, and with Kuwabara trying to court his girl, he is even worse tempered.
"Yeah, I almost forgot. Shall we go in to the apartment then?"
"Well, I decided to take Yukina for a walk now. And, I refuse to borrow you the key. Please wait for Yusuke, Uh-huh, just to remind you, he is out for a movie. See ya later." Kurama takes Yukina hand and walk away, leaving Kuwabara standing in front of the apartment, confusing what he had done to make Kurama so mad.
Both of them remain silent walking towards the park. The silent was break by a small accident. Yukina overlook the deep hole on the ground, mistakenly stepping in and almost fall. Kurama with his lightning speed, hold Yukina straight, "Are you okay, love?" Kurama looks at Yukina, trying to find out if she hurt herself.
"No, I'm fine. I'm just a little…" before Yukina could finish her words; Kurama kissed her on her lips. Yukina blush a little.
"Are you mad with me?" asked Yukina softly
"Of course not. I will never mad with you."
"But I can sense your anger…"
"I'm mad, but not with you. It's… well, I'm not going to explain this. But love, this is nothing to do with you. I'm fine, don't worry."
Yukina is so innocent; she will never understand what Kurama is mad about.
They have a long walk this evening, its dinner time when they reached home. And Kuwabara is still waiting outside the apartment, "It's so great that both of you are back!" Kurama really has no interest to entertain him, but out of courtesy, he replies with a smile and open the door.
Yukina notices Kurama is so different, compare to his time in Makai.
