R and R!

6 Yusuke's in Trouble

Yuske stood up in front of the group of demons a pulled out his hand from his pocket.

"I'm sorry if I killed your little friend, but it was the tournament. By the way, who made her fight?" he asked a demon who was taller and bigger than the others.

"A big guy, bigger than me. But why does that matter?! You wouldn't care!"

"Hey! Just because I'm a fighter doesn't mean I don't have a heart! Now, I don't want any trouble, I need to get back to my hotel! Someone I know is in trouble!"

The demon shout out his arm and hit Yusuke in the stomach. He flew back and another demon came closer to him.

"I don't fight, but you know what I can do?!"

"I'm afraid I'm going to find out." Yusuke moaned.

The demon began to suck air and take away spirit energy from Yusuke. The Larger demon walked over and looked at him, completely worn out.

"You see what it feels like to have no spirit energy to kill with, you murderer?!"

Yusuke lied there and breathed deeply, trying to regain strength.

The demons all smiled and got up, walking away.

"H-Hey!" Yusuke said with as much breath as possible. "Where, are, you."

"Goodbye you murderer!" said the demon and walked away.

He lay there and moaned. "Great, Puu.wont be able to, to tell I'm hurting, unless I try r-really hard."

Hiei put Kayko down in a tree.

"You're, you're Hiei, right? That's your name" Kayko asked.

"Yes." He said. He didn't really like this human, and she didn't like him too much considering the past.

"I know Yusuke trusts you, but I don't. I still don't think you're completely good."

Hiei turned and smiled. "You're right little girl, I'm not."

Hiei suddenly turned around, sensing something. He was a bit worried, then a sigh of relieve crossed his face. "Why are you here? I thought you were busy."

Kurama stepped out as the dotted shadows of the trees covering him with spots of sunlight.

"You mustn't scare the girl, Hiei. You've done that enough. Kayko, why was Yusuke in such a rush to get back to the hotel?"

"Hn. Eves dropping I see." Said Hiei.

Kayko ignored him. "There's something wrong with Puu. I need to get there now!"

"Hiei, you're much faster than I am, take her there."

"I have no reason to."

A hand came across Hiei's face and slapped him. It was Kayko.

"Don't be stubborn!"

Kurama chuckled.

"Fine! I'll take you! Kurama, you better keep up!"

He picked up Kayko and ran off. Kurama ran off through the brush as fast as he could, following them. Kayko watched the two of them carefully. They were very graceful, for demons.

The rabbit turned to the corner and started walking as Puu held Yusuke's hand, but he couldn't feel him.

"I did those things and since they didn't help, I created you. I made you out of his feelings for a friend I just drew you on one of the walls in the maze. But I never thought your would come to life through that egg. It was very confusing. But now you're here, and since you're that part of Yuske, you DO need me."

Puu stepped back from Yusuke and the rabbit, then began to run. He ran down the hallway and into the kitchen. He went to another room and saw the door. He was about to go out, when it turned into another wall of the maze. The picture on the wall was of Puu. The one the rabbit drew.

"Stay. I order you to stay! I'll do anything to get you to stay!"

The rabbit grabbed Puu and hugged him. "We are friends, you and I!"

Puu turned to him and tried to pull away. He yelled 'stop' with his mind, but the rabbit wouldn't listen.

"WE ARE FRIENDS, YOU AND I!" he yelled and then turned a beat red. His eyes were swallowing Puu's.

Yusuke suddenly felt a pain. It was greater than the one he was experiencing. It was Puu, he knew it. He was in trouble being in the woods by him self. And what about Kayko?

When the three of them showed up at the hotel, Kayko jumped from Hiei's arms and rang the bell.

Botan buzzed it open and they ran up the stairs into the room.

"Puu!" yelled Kayko.

Puu looked up at the wall. There was Kayko. He started to feel his heart beat and the rabbit felt it, too. He grabbed his chest and tried to stop his heart. Puu pued and tried to push him away.

"Stop! We are friends." The rabbit fell back and Puu looked up at the wall. He took a breath and jumped up into the picture.

Puu turned to the rabbit while he was in the air.

"You do need friends? But ones you can trust?" he said. "And I'm not a friend, I was, but not anymore. I changed."

Puu turned and entered the picture, coming out of his trance in real life.

"Puu!" yelled Kayko and hugged him. Puu got up and felt something pierce his heart. The rabbit wasn't gone, but Puu escaped, for a little while. He needed to find Yusuke and fast, before he was put into another trance again!
