Revenge Isn't Always Sweet
Chapter 2
**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**~~**
Kurama lifted up his head. "How long have I been here?" he asked unaware Shiren was next to him.
"You've been here for two days."
Kurama groaned, "It seems like it's been longer than that." He sighed as he tried to move his legs. They were weak, and he would have fell if he wasn't shackled to the wall.
Shiren smirked, "You won't last much longer here. To bad Hiei hasn't found us yet." He stepped in front of Kurama. "I can't have you die until he gets here." He forced Kurama to eat. "That should last you for awhile." He walked back up the stairs.
Kurama looked confused. ~Now he wants me to live?~ He sighed. ~None of this makes sense. Does he want me dead or alive?~ He closed his eyes. ~Hiei, I would like for you to come, but I don't want you hurt.~
*******
Hiei jumped down from the tree he was sleeping in. ~Kurama, I'm coming, just hold on.~ He looked around and decided to use his jagan again. He pushed it to its maximum distance. ~Still no sign of Kurama.~ He sighed and looked around. ~Which way should I go?~ He decided to go right. He began running searching for Kurama's or Shiren's ki. He spotted someone ahead. He stopped running and walked slowly and cautiously toward the person. ~Can it really be?~ "Kurama?"
The person turned around. "Hello, Hiei."
Hiei's eyes widened, "How did you get away from Shiren?"
"I tricked him, then I ran. That was all I could do. I was lucky I escaped. He almost caught me." He walked over to Hiei, then collapsed. ~This should make him think that I am Kurama.~
"Kurama are you ok?"
"I'm fine, it's just that I don't have any energy."
Hiei helped him to his feet. "Where's Shiren now?"
I don't know. Once I got away from him, I didn't look to see if he was anywhere behind me, but I don't think he followed me."
"Good, he won't be a problem then. Come on, let's get you to Yukina, she'll heal you."
The imposter nodded and put his head on Hiei's shoulder. "What are we going to do about Shiren? He's probably still after me."
"We'll kill him, but not until we've both healed."
*******
Shiren laughed, "What do you think about your twin, Kurama?"
Kurama growled, "I despise him, as well as you."
"You better watch your mouth," Shiren snarled as he slapped Kurama.
"You asked what I thought about him, so I answered you. If you didn't want my opinion, then you shouldn't have asked for it."
Shiren growled, "Shut up!" He grabbed Kurama's throat and began to squeeze. "Maybe I should kill you now. No, if I do that, then I won't be able to enjoy my revenge as much." He released Kurama. "Now let's continue to watch your twin."
*******
The imposter started to fall again, but Hiei caught him. "Thank you."
Hiei nodded. "Maybe we should rest. You need to regain your strength." He sat down by a tree. ~Something doesn't seem right about Kurama.~
The imposter sat beside Hiei leaning on him. He smirked when Hiei closed his eyes. "You seem tired, Hiei."
"I am. I've been looking for you for two almost two days. I slept for only an hour just before I found you." Hiei sighed, "If a demon comes and it tries to attack, wake me."
"Ok, Hiei, I will." He shifted forms to look like his brother and stood up. "Hiei, wake up."
Hiei opened his eyes and looked up at the kitsune that stood before him. "Where's Kurama?" he demanded.
"Are you talking about the guy who was just beside you?"
"Yes, now where is he?" Hiei growled.
The kitsune smirked, "You'll have to find him." He began to run. ~I'm going to need some assistance form my brother.~ He started laughing.
Hiei just watched the kitsune disappear. ~I'll go after you in a bit.~
*******
Shiren laughed, "I guess he doesn't care about you. Well, I'll just kill you then."
*******
Hiei took off running after the kitsune.
*******
"Hmm, I was wrong. Looks like you get to live, Kurama. I'll be back to check on what Hiei is doing later. You might want to keep watching. I'm sure it's going to get interesting."
*******
"Shokudo, Shokudo, where are you?" Inchiki yelled. "I need your help."
"What did you get yourself into now?" Shokudo walked outside of his house. "Why did you shape shift to look like me?"
"I need you to act like you're going to kill me when a fire demon comes."
"You didn't answer my question, Inchiki."
"I wanted him to believe you took his lover."
"What? Why?"
"That's not important. He's coming." Inchiki shifted back to Kurama.
"Is this the form of his lover?"
"Yes, now act as if you're going to kill me when he gets here."
"Ok, but you better not get me killed."
Hiei spotted the two. "Let him go," he demanded as he stopped in front of them.
"Why? He's mine at the moment," Shokudo smirked.
Hiei growled. "Kurama are you ok?"
Inchiki nodded, "I'm fine."
Shokudo punched Inchiki in the stomach. Inchiki dropped to his knees.
"Damn you!" Hiei snarled. "He's weak. Leave him alone."
Inchiki shifted to his normal form. "You're a fool, Hiei."
"I thought you were acting weird. Where's the real Kurama?"
"What makes you think we're going to tell you?" Inchiki laughed.
Hiei unsheathed his katana. "Tell me or die." He slowly walked toward the brothers.
Shokudo panicked, "What did you get me into, Inchiki?"
Inchiki looked at Hiei. "Please allow my brother to live. He doesn't know what's going on. I told him what to do."
"Fine, he can leave, but you can't."
Shokudo looked at Inchiki and then at Hiei. "Thank you." He began to run.
Hiei continued toward Inchiki. "Where is he?"
"I won't tell you. You'll never be able to force it out of me either." He backed away from Hiei.
Hiei growled and charged at him knocking him to the ground. "Tell me where he is now," he demanded. He pointed his katana down at Inchiki.
Inchiki glared up at Hiei, "I refuse to tell you."
Hiei smirked, "Fine, I'll just kill your brother."
Inchiki widened his eyes, "You wouldn't."
"Oh, I would."
"Ok, ok, I'd tell you if I knew, but Shiren is never in the same place. Please spare my brother. I promise if I knew, then I'd tell you."
Hiei narrowed his eyes, "You better be telling the truth." He uncovered his jagan and looked into his mind. He covered the jagan. "You're lucky you were telling the truth. Your death will be quick" With one swift movement he killed Inchiki instantly. "I'll spare your brother, but only because I'm in a hurry." He flitted off again searching for Kurama.
*******
Kurama smirked, "I guess your plan backfired, Shiren."
Shiren growled, "I told you to shut up." He backhanded Kurama.
Kurama spit out blood. He continued to watch Hiei.
Shiren covered the screen. "I think you've watched him enough, possibly too much. I don't want to get your hopes up," he laughed. He walked back up the stairs. "Sleep well, Kurama," he mocked.
Kurama sighed and began to shiver.
*******
"Urameshi, do you think Hiei found Kurama?"
"I don't know Kuwabara. If he did, you probably would have sensed them or they would have came here so Yukina could heal them."
"You're probably right. Should we go look for them?"
"We'll go tomorrow. It's getting late."
"Ok, I'll meet you here tomorrow morning. Bye, Urameshi."
"See ya, Kuwabara."
*******
Hiei growled. ~If I didn't have that distraction with those brothers, I probably would have found him by now."
