Author's note: Do not ask, just read. I own no one but Rutilus. Enjoy.
Chapter Five
Hiei was walking through a forest looking for Kurama, he couldn't seem to find him.
"Kurama!" He yelled, there was no answer so he kept on walking, soon he smelled blood, Kurama's blood. He took off running in that direction, then he smelled her, the fox girl that had disarmed him. He found a clearing, the fox girl was crouched over Kurama.
"Tell me, what is your name?" She asked, without even looking up.
"Hiei, who are you and what did you do to Kurama?" He growled.
"My name is Rutilus Letum, and he is of no concern right at the moment." She paused, "I love you Hiei. I didn't attack you because I love you."
"What?" He took a step backwards. She stood up and turned around, Hiei saw Kurama was gutted, blood covered her hands and face, she wiped the blood away from her face with one of the coat sleeves, "What did you? Kurama!"
"Now he can't come between us." She walked over to him and picked him up.
"What? Why are you doing this, fox?" He growled, trying to get free.
"Because I love you." She began to kiss him, she broke the kiss and repeated, "I love you."
******
Hiei snapped awake, panting and shivering, he threw the covers off of him and Kurama, who was still whole.
"Only a dream." He whispered to himself, it was dawn, the birds were already tweeting. He laid down again and stared at Kurama, unable to go back to sleep.

Rutilus got Ototo and Ani up.
"Why did you get us up so early?" Ani asked, she was dressed and in a human form.
"Breakfast is coming over." She looked out the window, "See?" Yusuke and Keiko were coming down the road.
"You're going to eat both of them?" Ototo asked.
"No, I'm gonna eat her in front of him. Here's the plan: I'm gonna act like I'm lost and looking for help and you're going to sneak up behind them and capture them." They nodded, she then went outside and walked in front of Keiko and Yusuke, "I'm lost could you two help me?" She asked acting sweet.
"Sure, where do you need to go?" Yusuke asked.
"To the market." She said.
"Which one?" Keiko looked at Yusuke.
"Which one? How many are there?" She asked.
"A lot." Yusuke sighed, just then he felt someone wrap their arm around him and pick him up, it picked Keiko up too, it was Ototo, "You! I thought I killed you!" Ototo just grunted and took them in the temple. Rutilus walked in and took her true form.
"I feel his power rising." She walked over and whipped out a set of weird colored beads, "To bind your power so you can't attack." She chanted something and placed them over his head and around his neck, his power level dropped back to that of a normal person's. She turned to Keiko, and grinned, showing off her sharp teeth.
"Don't you dare hurt Keiko!" Yusuke yelled, he was held down and forced to watch. Rutilus ran at Keiko and punched her in the breast bone, there was a resounding crack.
"What did you just do?" Keiko began to cry, "Oh Yusuke help me, it hurts." Rutilus ripped Keiko's uniform off and pinned her against the wall.
"Better tell him bye, cause that was you breast bone I just cracked, straight down the middle." Rutilus laughed.
"Yusuke, I love you." Keiko cried. Rutilus kept her pinned with a knee as she inserted both her hands into her chest, finding the crack. She began to pull the two halves open, like double doors. The sound of tearing flesh and breaking rips mixed with Keiko and Yusuke's cries and pleads. Finally she pried the bones open, showing the lungs.
"I know there's a delicious heart in there somewhere." She said, instead of using her hands this time she plunged her face in, eating her lungs, searching for her heart. Keiko gasped for air, but it never came. Rutilus slung her head back the sound of something ripping was heard, blood flew everywhere, in her mouth was Keiko's heart. She ate it greedily and then finished off the rest of her insides.
"Keiko! Keiko! No!" Yusuke yelled. Rutilus nodded and Ototo let Yusuke go, he rushed over to Keiko, to weak to attack, he picked her body up and ran off.
"She was delicious." Rutilus said grinning like a maniac.
*****
Yusuke ran to his house and called everyone up, hearing Yusuke crying they came over quickly.
"Yusuke what's wrong?" Kurama asked, Yusuke pointed to Keiko's broken, gutted form, "Oh my God!"
"Urameshi, it was that fox and the Toguro brothers wasn't it?" Kuwabara asked, Yusuke could only nod because he was crying so hard, he slowed the crying down enough so he could talk.
"They grabbed us and took us into an old, what looked like abandon temple, I got these beads on me so I couldn't attack and I was forced to watch her rip Keiko's chest open and eat her insides." He began to cry again. Kurama removed the beads.
"Where was this temple?" Hiei asked.
"Next to the old toy factory on Blue Inu Street." Yusuke sobbed, Hiei was gone.
"Wonder where he went." Kuwabara said.
"Probably off to think." Kurama smiled weakly as he helped Yusuke to his room, "Sleep." He said, Yusuke cried himself to sleep.
*****
Hiei walked down Blue Inu Street, he stopped in front of the temple.
"I know you're in there, fox." He said, Rutilus was on her sofa when she heard him, her ears twitched. "That dream, didi you give it to me? If so is it true?" He heard a loud sigh. Ani looked at Rutilus.
"Are you feeling okay?" He asked, she just nodded. Hiei still stood outside.
"I'm taking that as a yes. Meet me at the statue in the park, tonight around mid-dark, come alone." He heard another loud sigh and he turned and left.
*****
That night Rutilus let Ototo and Ani go to bed early for once, she leaned in sometime later and made sure they were asleep. She then got dressed and headed toward the park, since she had already been there before. When she entered the park she smiled to herself,
"Dreams do come true."
