An: (to Erin) Funny thing is actually, I didn't know Keaira until she started reviewing my fic. But you are right our style is sort of similar isn't it?

Disclaimer: I own nothing, except Holly Summers and the plot line.

The bells hovered around Holly as she crouched on the rooftop of Kurama's house. She smiled sadly and reached her hand out to them. "I really didn't want to do that, you know," she told the glowing mass.

The bells came together and there was a brief flash of light and before Holly floated a tiny version of herself. "We had to... The Gods are already pursuing us. We don't have time to make allies the proper way."

"I know... I just hope I chose the right one," Holly sighed. "I suppose it's a good thing he won't remember what happened. It hurt him a lot." Knowing she had hurt someone who was not involved with her problems troubled her.

"The other demon will be very upset with us," Chibi Holly spoke sadly. "He seems very protective of the redhaired fox."

"Really?" She shrugged. "Well you're the Empath not me." Then Holly smirked, "I hope then that he can deal with the side effects of the spell I put on Kurama."

"We have a feeling that everything will be alright with them... for now at least."

"Good because I need to get back to Keiko's house before the 'me' that is there sucks away all the energy in the neighborhood," Holly stood. As she walked he hummed a little tune and headed straight back to Keiko's without bothering to use the ground. The bells had rejoined her in their normal state and hummed along with her in happy abandonment.

Hiei had run back to Kurama's house as soon as he felt the fox's yoki skyrocket. He had never felt Kurama's yoki do anything like that... not even in a battle... it had felt like Kurama's yoki and yet not. "Kurama?" Hiei called as he stepped down through the window.

Kurama stirred in his sleep before groggily looking up at Hiei with tired eyes. "Something wrong Hiei?"

Hiei could have cried in relief... if he was inclined to such displays of weakness. "What were you doing to cause your yoki to pour like that?"

Kurama looked at him confused a moment, "Like what, Hiei? I was just doing my homework and then went to bed." He reached his hand out to Hiei.

Confused by the gesture Hiei stepped closer to Kurama. "Wha-"

Before Hiei finished a word Kurama had grabbed him and tackled him to the floor. The fox was giggling merrily and hugging Hiei so tight the fire demon had trouble breathing. "I missed you Hiei!"

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, YOU CRAZY YOUKO!" Hiei growled. He had to do something to keep himself in control. He settled on a deathglare.

Kurama got up and just stared at Hiei with a pout, "I was just giving you a hug hello!" Then he reattached himself to Hiei's middle. "I missed you so much!"

"STUPID FOX I WASN'T EVEN GONE AN HOUR TO CHECK ON YUKINA!"

"It felt like forever!" The fox whined. "Will you stay the night with me?"

The blood drained out of Hiei's face, "Wha- WHAT?! YOU CRAZY, STUPID YOUKO!" 'Control Hiei, control! He's just trying to get to you! This must be one of his stupid yuoko games... Yes that has to be it.' He tried to dislodge the clinging fox but to no avail. He was just about to resort back to screaming insults when suddenly Kurama's hold loosened and Hiei realized the fox had gone to sleep. Angrily he dragged the sleeping redhead back to his own bed. Then he dashed out the window to get some air.

That was just far too bizarre.

AN: Yes that was fun. Kurama turned into a cuddle monster! This part of the fic was inspired a few months ago by this kid that I babysit every now and then. ^_^;; So ummm yeah.

The term 'yoki' I think means 'demon energy'. Which is not to be confused with 'youki', which is 'demon'. If I got this wrong please let me know!
