Author's Note: I'm sorry for the delay...and the to the people who reviewed...
Wowie - I forgot that the realm of the youkai's was Makai ^^ (I think I did correct my mistake later in the last chapter though); thank you for correcting me...I thought the human world was Ningenkai, g not j but oh well. Maybe I will make this fic into a triangle ^_^.
Wolfy - Kurama is the redhead with green eyes. "Youko" Kurama is the guy with silver/white everything except his eyes, his eyes are gold and he's taller than human Kurama (he's 7 ft) ^^;. If you don't like Kurama/Serenity then why are you reading this fic, j/k and Kuronue is not Hiei, Kuronue was Kurama's former friend way before he met Yuusuke-tachi. Kuronue looks like Youko Kurama except he wears black and has a hat, he only appears in one of the YYH movies, btw.
VeggieBriefs - I'm glad you like it ^_^!
ScorpioNightShadow - Yes, Kurama was cute when he blushed...^_____^

Chapter 4
After giving Princess Serenity the tour around the hideout they went back to her room.
"Thank you for trusting me. It really means a lot to me." Princess Serenity said shyly looking at Kurama smiling.
Kurama's heart began to thump, "Don't get too comfortable." He told her coolly opening the door to her room. Princess Serenity just gave him a bigger smile and walked into the room.
Before Kurama closed the door she said something that kept him off guard. "I had a really good time and while I'm staying here, I hope to create more memories with you."
Kurama's heart thumped even harder and a blush slowly began to form in his cheeks. "Good night." He muttered slamming the door.
That action made Princess Serenity sad and confused. "Did I say something wrong?" She thought dejectedly.

Kurama was in his room splashing his face from the water of a basin. He then took a couple of deep breaths and looked at his reflection in the water basin. He frowned at himself and walked over to sit on the edge of his bed.
"Why am I feeling this way?" He thought troubled, his brow knitting together. "She's only a girl! However, she is from the moon and a princess...could it be her powers?"
Kurama's train of thought was interrupted by a knock on his door.
He quickly faced the direction of the door. "Dare!" He demanded.
Kuronue came walking in with his hands up like being escorted to a police car.
"Kuronue?" Kurama said restlessly, placing his head to his forehead.
Kuronue placed his hands on his hips pensively. "What the hell is wrong with you!" He snapped. Kurama just glared back at Kuronue and he did the same in return.
Kuronue sighed, "So how was the tour with the princess?" He teased.
"It was good." Kurama answered bluntly.
Kuronue raised a skeptical eyebrow at him. "Sure, whatever. Just don't fall in love with her."
Kurama tensed and stood up. "What is that suppose to mean?" He asked acidly.
Kuronue cringed slightly. "I-It was just a joke. Don't take it personally, maybe it's best if I should leave now." He then walked slowly, backwards out of Kurama's door.
"Aho." Muttered Kurama bitterly.

The next morning Princess Serenity rose when the sun began to shine through her window. She wrinkled her nose and opened her eyes slowly. She cautiously walked over to the vanity still half asleep. As soon as she approached the vanity she grabbed for a brush and began to undo her odango pigtails.
While she was brushing her incredibly long, strait, blonde hair someone knocked on the door. "Come in." She said.
Kurama walked in languidly and Princess Serenity nodded at him and gave him a small smile.
"Ohayo." He greeted simply, smiling at her.
Princess Serenity's heart skipped a beat. "Is he being nice...?" She thought amazed. She rubbed both of her eyes with her free hand to see if she wasn't hallucinating. "It's not an illusion." She thought staring with wide eyes.
Kurama frowned at her, "Doshite?"
Princess Serenity turned away from him quickly. "N-Nandai desu!" She stuttered nervously, continuing brushing her hair. (AN: Nandai desu does mean nothing, right?) Kurama just smirked and walked casually over to where she was standing. He brought out his hand and started straitening some strands of her hair. Princess Serenity jumped in surprise and Kurama leaned in closer.
"Mou daijoubu." He said softly, caressing her face. Princess Serenity looked at him fearfully.
Kurama leaned in closer. "I already told you if I hurt you, I wouldn't be able to get the ginzuishou." Princess Serenity nodded slowly. Kurama began brushing her hair with his fingers. After a couple of minutes he backed away. "I guess you would like a bath." He suggested. Before he left the door he told her that his minions would bring her a tub of hot water, soap, and some clothes to change into.
"Thank you for going through this trouble." She told him kindly. Instead of responding Kurama just slammed the door in her face.

Meanwhile in the Moon Kingdom...
"How do you purpose we get the princess back without giving the youko the ginzuishou?" Sailor Venus asked Queen Serenity.
"Do you think we can make a fake ginzuishou and give it to him?" Sailor Jupiter suggested.
Sailor Mars shook her head. "I don't that would work. Kurama isn't a master thief for nothing. He would probably detect that it would be fake really quickly."
"I think he would also suspect that it would be fake if didn't feel anything from the ginzuishou. He managed to defeat Venus after all and she is the most powerful out of us all." Sailor Mercury added.
Queen Serenity sighed in distress and all of the senshi stopped talking waiting for her input. "I was thinking of talking to Enma-ou of Reikai."
All of the senshi widened their eyes because they couldn't believe that they forgot that option.
"That sounds like a good idea!" Sailor Jupiter declared.
"However..." Sailor Mars said frowning a little, placing a hand on her chin. "Why not ask Prince Endymion for help?"
Queen Serenity smiled kindly at her. "I know they are more powerful but the people of Reikai are more familiar with Makai than the royalty of Earth."
Sailor Venus slouched in her seat. "I can't believe I didn't go to them." She said flabbergasted.
"Don't worry Venus." Sailor Jupiter told her lightly. "You did the right thing going back to the Moon Kingdom immediately. Anyway, why are you being so hard on yourself? You're the leader of the Inner Senshi you should be more confident."
Sailor Venus regained her composure. "You're right, thank you Jupiter."
"Douitashimashita." Sailor Jupiter replied politely.
"So do you agree that I should talk to Enma-ou?" Queen Serenity asked the Inner Senshi for their consent. Sailor Venus, Sailor Mars, and Sailor Jupiter nodded in agreement but Sailor Mercury looked a little antsy.
"What if they fail?" She asked Queen Serenity nervously.
"I will then ask for Prince Endymion to help us." Queen Serenity answered. Sailor Mercury relaxed and nodded and looked up at her smiling.
"So, all of you agree?" Queen Serenity asked the Inner Senshi once more. This time all of the senshi nodded in agreement giving the queen confident smiles.
Author's Note: I hope you like the meeting at the Moon Kingdom. I was thinking that the Reikai Tantei should help them instead of the Earth Kingdom at first. I know that Koenma didn't know about Kurama until he conspired with Hiei and Gouki but I was thinking that Koenma might forget about this case. He is very busy after all...and maybe I should make his true form look like he's in middle school instead of high school. I mean it has been many years since the Moon Kingdom was destroyed by Metallia and co, right?
