(Kurama POV)

"Well… I went after Yomi, its simple as that."

"You idiot! How could you think of coming alone like that? He will obviously defeat you weak kitsune."

I gave her a quizzical look, since when was she so bold?

I as I was about to retort and ask her what was up and what of her hair, the ice barrier was shattered.

I looked up expecting Yomi to have destroyed it but found that it was actually Yukina who had. She stood up and went in Yomi's direction.

"So ice maiden do you think you can defeat me?" Yomi asked mockingly. Oh no Yukina wanted to fight? I need to get her out of here.

I turned only to see Yukina vanish and appear behind Yomi, she threw a simple kick and returned to my side.

"No I don't plan on defeating you, only giving you a piece of my mind." She said dully.

What? Since when could Yukina move so fast?

" You will pay for your disrespect ice maiden, I knew I should have destroyed Koorime a long time ago but I thought the attack I left on the inhabitants would be enough, appears not." He said coldly.

"You were the one who attacked." Yukina said quietly.

"Yes it was quite fun don't you agree." He asked bemused.

"You… you …"

"You what, bastard? Asshole? What ice maiden? I don't have time for your petty insults." He said coyly.

"SHUT UP." Yukina yelled, rage shining in her blood red eyes.

No sooner had the words come out of her mouth when pillars of eyes shot out in a straight line from Yukina to Yomi who was greatly shocked and did not have time to escape the attack.

"How dare you!" she roared "You know how much everyone suffered after the attack? How much I did?"

More ice came out from the ground and froze Yomi from his feet to his neck.

How was Yukina doing this? I turned and saw that her eyes were completely white and a great ki surrounded her.

I was amazed; her power rivaled that of any A-class demon.

I instantly understood, all demons are born with their inborn powers; for example Youko Kurama's father was an A-class demon and his mother was an upper B-class demon. Yoko Kurama was born a lower A-class demon.

If I recalled correctly Hiei had been born with A-class power but lost it when he gained the Jagan. But if Hiei lost his powers Yukina didn't necessarily lose them, all this time she had been an A-class demon without training.

"I hate you," she told Yomi coldly; shards of ice launched themselves at him.

I decided to interfere just about now; the sooner I got rid of Yomi the better.

I shot my energy into my rose and made it into my Rosewhip.

I expertly maneuvered it and easily removed the bastard's arm.

He yelled in pain, ah music to my ears! Isn't revenge the sweetest thing!

"Stop Kurama I'm still not done." Yukina's cold voice cut through my plans to chop off a certain demon lord's head off.

I nodded I'd let her have a go first…

Yukina swiftly walked up to the unmoving Yomi.

An arm came out to hurt her but it was frozen solid.

She lifted her own arm up and…

She slapped him! 0.0

About 6 times…

"I hate you, you destroyed part of me, now I'll destroy part of you." She said icily

Somehow, I did not see how Yomi's remaining arm parted with his body.

Three large gaping holes appeared on his chest; the blood began to steadily pour out.

"You can do whatever you want now, just make sure he suffers," she said in a distant voice.

I couldn't believe she had done that it was so strange to see someone like Yukina lose control, demonic instincts were wretched.

I looked at Yomi, he looked bad, he was steadily bleeding through his chest and both arms were missing.

" Whats wrong? Has the mighty Youko become merciful now?" he spat out a wad of blood.

I narrowed my eyes.

" No, just thinking of the best way of torturing a bastard like you." I said menacingly.

"Oh woe is me" he retorted sarcastically.

I slowly came up behind him and punched him in his bleeding chest, careful to implant my seed in one of the gaping holes.

"All you dare to do." He wheezed, "Well than you'd better prepare yourself."

I glared at him.

He shattered the ice that Yukina had created.

"See that's the problem with ice, it melts if you take your spiritual power out." He said coolly.

I turned around and saw that Yukina was standing about 20 yards away, an ice barrier up just in case.

" Well maybe now we can fight man-to-man now?" he asked pleasantly.

"I'd rather not call a dispute between an armless person and myself a fight." I said quietly.

" Oh don't you know not to underestimate opponents?" he asked ruefully.

"Maybe you should do the same." I said before inserting spirit energy into my sinning tree.

I ran at him with my rosewhip and stopped as the tree captured him.

Yukina ran up to Yomi.

She began to search or something.

She seemed to be satisfied because she pocketed whatever it was and turned to me.

"Are you happy now, he's dead? Can we go?" she asks idly.

As I nod she slowly begins to fall but two familiar arms catch her.

"Whats going on kitsune?" he asks impatiently.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I asked edgily.

"Nani?"

"That Yukina-san still had A-class demonic powers?" I asked puzzled

Hiei looked startled.

"What the hell happened kitsune!" he demanded.

"I went after Yomi and a few minutes later Yukina showed up and saved me from an attack, then she got angry and began to fight Yomi." I said tranquilly.

Hiei looked beyond shocked, "What did he say that could have made Yukina so incensed?" he asked quietly.

That's when I realized the Yukina scarcely gets mad, "He admitted to have attacked Koorime," I said quietly

Hiei's eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Was she hurt during the battle?" Hiei queried suddenly.

"No. She just used to much powers for an untrained demon." I replied back, I was still rather silent and uneasy. Who wouldn't be when facing one of the many friends you'd let down.

(Hiei POV)

I had noticed the kitsune had been rather dubious and jumpy, and even uncomfortable through out all of the conversation.

I looked down to Yukina, she didn't have a scratch on her, but her ki was very low.

It was only normal she collapsed after using so much energy, I had read Yukina's mind a few seconds ago.

As I had peered into her mind the first thought I found was 'I'm not an innocent little brat' I suppose after so many years of being treated like a child when you weren't one was annoying, I suppose some of the fault is mine…

I also found extreme guilt for pretending to be a weak little girl when all she was really doing was putting her past behind her.

And lastly I found outright fury for knowing her beloved homeland had been nearly destroyed by Yomi. I was able to play-by-play every single attack, it was amazing. Touya would be ashamed to call himself the ice master after he saw her attacks, they were perfectly calculated and just the right amount of power. But I could also sense she had little control over her powers and most of the battle had been righteous fury and flukes.

I looked over at Kurama who was standing in an awkward position with a look of guilt upon his face.

I decided to peer into his mind as well.

Ok… that was strange…

I was not allowed to read any of his thoughts because there was a jumble of mixed emotions.

First guilt

Anger

Disgust

Confusion

And lastly fear…

It was rather strange to presence fear inside such a strong mind.

The only thought I was able to collect was 'leave now' which I had a hard time deciding whether it was Kurama's, Shuuichi's or Youko's.

"What are you thinking of." I asked him harshly.

He looks up meekly, " I need to go now Hiei, Arigatou for everything please tell everyone that I'm sorry please." He says in a weak voice.

"Kitsune running away won't solve anything."

He gives me a sad smile I can even see the melancholy in his eyes, "I'm sorry."

He turns around and walks away.

I watch him slowly disappear; I can't do anything about it. If he's confused I can't do anything about it, he won't listen to me like this.

I slowly bent down to pick Yukina up and rushed back to the hospital ward, what else could I do?

To my very great surprise, all of the idiots were in the waiting room.

"I thought I told you all to guard them." I said furiously while laying Yukina on top of a hospital sofa.

"Well first of all, the doctors kicked us out for the exams, and second of all; what happened to Yukina? And what happened to her hair clothes?" Shizuru both asked and answered.

"You should have insisted on staying; Yukina fainted and I guess she cut her hair and put on new clothes." I said nonchalantly.

Shizuru gave me a 'you-are-hopeless' look and turned away, I heard Yusuke whisper 'I told you she changed her hair' to Keiko who gave an odd nod.

I gave a small 'Hn.' And a huff of breath. At the moment a doctor decided to show up before I could scream my lungs off at them. Darn it.

"Doctor can you please tell their condition?" a restless Shizuru inquired.

The doctor gave a sigh of exhaustion "Well your friend's condition is…"
