With a soft sigh and Hiei's whispered threat, "Detective if you do not stop scaring us I will make you regret it." Kurama rolled his eyes and forced himself to relax, shifting to a more comfortable position and laying his chin on Yusuke's shoulder he said, "Koi I don't know why you did this to yourself or why you didn't feel you could tell us everything but we are here for you." Hiei arched a brow but hugged his mates tighter, feeling Kurama slid down into slumber he remained awake fro a moment then sent out a mental call to Genkai. Genkai responded by making the shields guarding her temple stronger before allowing sleep to claim her.

/I'm not supposed to be scared of anything but I don't know where I am/

Hiei sank into soft, ebon darkness soon after they felt the shields being strengthened. They were granted about five hours of empty sleep before the first nightmare began. Yusuke looked like he was about eleven, he was in a corner of his room watching the door and shaking.

/I wish that I could move but I'm exhausted and nobody understands/

Dreamscape Yusuke watched the door utter terror and anger coursing through his small frame, causing him to shake visibly. Ralji was sitting on the bed smirking at the boy, he looked away only when a sharp knock sounded and then a few more in rapid succession.

/I'm trying hard to breathe now but there's no air in my lungs/

Getting up, he opened the door to reveal Yusuke's mother and another male who was wearing black leather pants and a dark red shirt, he had a black and red backpack slung over one shoulder. The stranger bowed politely to Ralji then asked, "So where's your trouble maker?" Ralji smiled and offered a slight bow in return while saying, "He's over there, you can do as you see fit, just no broken bones."

/There's no one here to talk to and the pain inside is making me numb/

Nodding the stranger smiled, placed the bag on the bed and walked over to Yusuke, said boy made a desperate dash for the fire escape only to be caught by one foot and slammed into the floor, stunned he didn't register the feel of cold metal around his wrists and the coarse rope on his ankles.

/I try to keep this under control/

The stranger slapped him to get his attention then smirked and said, "My name is Sephior and I will be your teacher for the next few weeks, you may call me Master." Unable to do anything Hiei and Kurama watched helplessly as Sephior tied Yusuke down, growling under their breath. Yusuke's eyes cleared and he focused on Sephior just in time to watch him pulling tools out of his bag knives, an assortment of leather bonds, various liquids, a container of low grade acid, and a rather large first aid kit.

/They can't help me cause no one knows/

In the real world no one stirred, save for the sound of slow breathing and an occasional movement. Kuwabara walked up the stairs and into the temple, after checking on everyone he set up another shield just beneath Genkai's shields then settled in a semi comfortable spot to keep watch.
