Inuyasha crossover Yu Yu Hakusho

Chapter 10: The World In-Between

Kurama was early as Youko told him a few stories of what happened in the past before she disappeared one day and the death that follows after Kuronue. It was almost disheartening, but their heart raced when they caught sight of Kagome walking towards them, a smile upon her face as she waved at them. It has been years, a hundred of years or so since she last returned to Makai.

However there was something else that Kagome had in mind as she reached where Kurama was waiting for her in the middle of a secluded park that have been abandoned long ago. It was one of the few places that she had set up misdirection spells and wards that she had set up for both Sesshoumaru and her. Kagome smiled as she took his hand to lead between a tree that seemed to be shrouded by nothing but dark shadows. Kurama was hesitant at first, wanting to ask her a question, but instead shook his head as he followed her through the path. It surrounded him, it was like a void, cold and empty, however just as he was trying to look through the darkness, Kagome suddenly tugged at him pulling Kurama to him, saving him in the nick of time from being trampled by the foot that seemingly appeared next to him.

His eyes widened in shock as Kagome tugged him on until they were nearing the end of the void where a spark of light could be seen. It seemed to Kurama that things here were ever-changing, and it disoriented him somewhat. When they exited he was somewhat surprise of having not been to this part of Makai, like what she had told him that they would be going there.

"This is not Makai Kagome," Kurama said somewhat surprise as he took in the sight around of him, noticing how very much like kabuki-cho but more like when it was back in the days when they were heavily influenced by the western culture.

"You're somewhat correct in that," Kagome told him as she led him down the main road, looking for a place. "We're in the World in between of Makai and Reikai," she told him.

This was the world in which rarely would people know about, one of the most well-kept secret in the world of Makai and Reikai. She told him of how this world came to be, as Kagome brought him into an Inn that she frequent. Smiling as she allowed a female Tanuki to serve her, leading them to a private room with a balcony of its own. And when they were left alone, Kagome asked him things of casual, slowly ebbing her way into things that they had formerly shared, sometimes even going in depth of things that they were never given the chance to.

Sake was poured and snacks were served as they talked through their meal, laughing at times, evening making jokes of what happened in their lives. They even ended up seating side by side of one another as they leaned against one another for support. Their eyes meet for a moment as they were looking at one another through many laughter and smiles, their eyes drifted down to the other's lips and then they were both fighting for air when their lips met for the first time for all. It was interesting, Youko the silver fox that resided within the body of Kurama had been waiting for centuries to try this to only get it now, whilst for Kagome, her mind was in an alcoholic haze as she enjoyed her first kiss from the one that she had wanted to know what it was like for years.

For someone like Kurama who has not touched the lips of another female this intimately and for such long time period. Youko taught Kurama through gaining control of their shared body to give Kagome the most unforgettable kiss of her life yet as they pushed her gently down to the ground where she was practically drowning in the new-found sensation that she thoroughly enjoying.

"My, my, Lady Kagome, one would really not have expected to see you here after so many centuries," a handsome said as he leaned against the frame of the sturdy sliding shoji screen.

The two youngster parted quickly with a somewhat loud growl of annoyance coming from Kurama and Youko for having something enjoyable taken away by this disturbance of an intrusion. His eyes met those of gold molten eyes shining with a certain twinkle of amusement and mischief as the male studied the both of them. The male is good-looking he would have to admit, hair of pure white with a golden sheen to it, his skin a smooth milky alabaster color with high cheekbones that were not so prominent that it became something too vulgar. The male is like the perfect androgynous beauty that could tempt both male and female alike. The male even tempted and appeal to the fox in Kurama for a moment as they watched how elegantly he took a step forward to gently slide the shoji door close with his steady gaze upon them all the time.

"I'm sorry but one did not expect for the likes of you to drop in so casually without much of a notice my lord," a flustered looking Kagome replied once she made herself somewhat more presentable through the hazy mind of hers.

"You've always been a poor drinker my dear. Now do tell me, to what or whom do we owe the pleasure to this special appearance of yours in this World," the unidentified male questioned with mild curiosity his eyes looking over to Kurama who sat there all proper and polite with an almost unreadable face as he watched the interaction between the stranger and his current date.

Kagome was silent for a moment, trying to gather her thoughts as she looked at the handsome male before of her, her body somewhat leaning forward as they eyes locked and held together for a moment, a coy smile upon his lips as he licked his lower lips in interest. It was only when their lips were nearly touching did Kagome pull away as though breaking free from a kind of sleep that she was in, despite of her foggy mind.

"You're still as good as ever I see, that pup must have taught you well," The male said with a satisfied smile before leaning forward to place a chaste kiss upon Kagome lips.

He stood to walk away with a brief wave goodbye and a wink to Kagome before disappearing when they Shoji door closed behind him once more. Kurama was pacifying Youko with what seemed like an intimate scene before their eyes as they watched the formal sitting position of which Kagome was in, returned to something more comfortable a she leaned her weight on one of the hand supporting her on the floor to take a quick shot of sake.

"I think you may have had enough Kagome," Kurama said, only this time, the voice of Youko Kurama came through as he took her into his arms to allow Kagome to lean her weight against his body. It was not everyday that he was able to transform so easily and with control into who he is, or to just merely take over the conscious of the dear sweet Shuichi Minamino that loves their human mother so dearly. In fact, this is a rare occurrence that has happened for the very first time.

"Just one more," Kagome pleaded looking into his eyes with such innocence that it disarmed Youko and his counterpart almost instant as they gave her another cup, but instead she rang for another bottle of sake. They were played by a younger kitsune it would seemed as Youko almost smiled at it, but instead the smile kept tugging at the edges of his lips.

"Come now Kagome, you need to stop or you'll be punished," he said in a mock reprimanding manner. He saw the curious look in Kagome's eyes she turned her attention to him head tilting slightly back to look into his gold flaked green eyes, her lips forming a perfect 'O' in a soft questioning like tone.

Her body turned towards him as she leaned forward her arms and hands stretched to support her upper body as it was placed near his sides. Her being this close and after what had happened to them earlier was enough to tempt him to take it up another notch. Even when a silent female Tanuki entered with a new bottle of sake, they did not bother, their eyes were locked and transfixed onto one another. This time however, Youko was the first to kiss Kagome, one of his hand around her head to keep her from escaping him as his other slide around her waist to keep her closer to him.

"Yes, you will be punished my dear vixen," Youko murmured huskily into her lips before recapturing it, his legs trapping hers under it as Youko rolled atop of her, the appearance of his former self slowly reappearing. It had been a long time since he had experience such smooth transition and the way Kurama had seemingly blended into his like they were one from the very beginning.

"Youko, you're back," Kagome whispered with a smile as she reached out with both her hands to gently touch the side of his face to bring his down to hers for another long kiss.
