Chapter six:

Hikaru groans softly in his sleep only to roll over and pat the other side of the bed. His still asleep mind manages to let him mumble something to who he is expecting to be there. "Kaoru. Move over. It's cold." His mind believes that Kaoru is too deep in sleep when the other doesn't respond. He lays there drifting in and out of deep sleep.

Meanwhile Kaoru has been following the ghost for a good bit now. He is glad that he has higher stamina when using his powers. He follows the ghosts example when the other skids to a stop.

"It is here." The ghost slightly gasps. "It's faster than I thought."

Kaoru is about to respond when he hears a scream. He spins around turning to look in the direction that it came from. He hurries off that way ready for a battle. He skids to a stop upon arriving to where the scream had come from.

The bee bear has panda fur with two arms that have long claws, a white and black curved like a tail between the legs large stinger as a tail, giant bee wings, a long muzzle full of sharp teeth, two legs that are like the arms, and it is very large.

Kaoru clenches his weapon in his hand. He charges towards the beast which causes one of the panda ears to twitch. He raises his weapon as the beast turns to him with a loud roar. He swings it as the beast charges at him causing the beast to rear backwards on its legs. He takes another swing at the beast that this time takes flight into the air with the bee buzz. He brings his weapon up sending out the fiery nine tailed fox shoots out heading for the beast.

The beast flies around very quickly to dodge the fiery being.

Kaoru closes his eyes softly to concentrate and directs his fiery attack to pretty much chase the beast around in the sky. He is using the fiery nine tailed fox's eyes to see where he is going.

The beast suddenly turns and charges for the fiery nine tailed fox only whip its stinger towards the fiery being.

Kaoru keeps going believing that he has the beast now… That is until the beast rams into the fiery being destroying the fiery being even though said beast was badly burned. His eyes snap open with a gasp when his sight with his fiery nine tailed fox goes black. His head snaps upwards as suddenly the beast is speeding towards him. He swipes at the beast with his sword cutting it's leg.

The beast slams him down to the ground with it's body. It's stinger slams against the rocky ground possibly getting stuck.

Kaoru is now holding a part of his blade, injuring his hand, and his weapons handle as he tries to keep the beasts paw from slicing him open. He is glad that it seems to need its one good leg and its other arm to keep itself up. He only has to worry about one paw though right now it is a battle of trying to push the beast off of him. He doesn't feel the pain in the hand on the blade as adrenaline is pumping through him very rapidly as he fights for survival.

"Chosen one!" The ghost screams in horror upon seeing this though not much can be done except be forced to watch it all go down.

Kaoru starts to make a little progress in pushing the beast back though is still struggling. He tries to increase the flames on his weapon hoping to hurt the beast enough to get it off of him.

Back with Hikaru he is just waking up to find Kaoru's side empty. He sits up and pats the other side of the bed finding it to be cold. He knows that Kaoru hasn't been there in a long while. He hurriedly gets up and begins searching the mansion. He however finds no sign of the other. He starts to feel panic and hurries back to their bedroom. He tries to call Kaoru's cell only to hear it ring from Kaoru's side of the bed. His heart drops so he calls up all of their friends to report the news.

"Kaoru is missing?" Haruhi is the first to speak after Hikaru tells them everything.

"And he didn't take his phone with him?" Mori continues on from there.

"He didn't leave any clue as to where he was going?" Tamaki is the next one to continue.

"Then we have to find him!" Hunny adds with worry in his voice. "Who knows what could have happened to him."

"Exactly my thoughts." Hikaru confirms. "We have to find out what happened."

"Well the best place to start is at the mansion. We'll meet you where you are Hikaru."

"Okay." Hikaru agrees knowing that they need to come together as a group if they are going to find Kaoru. He hangs up and waits for everyone. He gets dressed while doing so only to pace in the front lobby. His hands linked behind his back and head looking to the floor as he goes back and forth. He is swift to answer the door when he hears knocking. He finds all of his friends there so he lets them in.

They all stand in the lobby with the front door closed now.

"Since the last known place was the bedroom let us go to check it out there." Kyouya suggest so Hikaru takes them in which they look around. "No sign of a struggle. Meaning he must have gone off somewhere."

"But if he goes for walks at night he only goes to the garden. However he was not there." Hikaru points out causing Kyouya to make a sound of being in thought.

"Was there any signs of anyone having gotten into the garden or leaving it? Like an open gate or footsteps that go to a wall or fence?" Kyouya inquires to the other. He however pauses to turn away answering a call on his cell. "Yes, what is it?" He inquires only to listen for a few moments. "Are you sure? Where?"

The others all become interested upon hearing the raven say what he did.

"Okay, thank you." Kyouya then hangs up. "A beast was spotted fighting a Spiritual fighter."

"Is it Kaoru?" Hikaru inquires both in worry and hope. "I don't get it. If it is him why did he go out after a beast and not wake me or leave any sign?"

"Only one way to find out." Kyouya tells him pushing his glasses on his face. "We should head to the location to find out for ourselves if it really is Kaoru. Along with why he is so far from home that he seems to have left in the middle of the night."

So the group hurry off following Kyouya to get to the location both wanting answers and wanting to know that if it is their friend, or brother, that he is ok.
