Chapter 7: The thief's lair?

They had made their way across the plain behind the house. Yusuke was the first to break the silence, "So what happened to Kuwabara?" "Hmm?" asked Kurama his concentration now broken. "He's on suspension. Well, let's stop for a break." It was getting dark, and he didn't want to worry his mother. "I'm going to call my mom," he told them, and then he walked off a few steps. He fished a cell-phone out of his pocket. "Hello mother.no I'm fine.Hiei's house to sleep-over.yes.no.OK.and mother.I love you.thank you." Gees, some of the questions parents ask. He suddenly realized that he had been walking the whole time-away from camp. He was staring at a large rock- cave. He looked down at the entrance. There were foot-prints there, the same kind they had been following all day. He put the cell-phone back in his pocket, and pulled out his communicator. He contacted Yusuke, and told him he might have found something. He indicated a button, which could be used to track the person you were talking to. Yusuke activated it and Kurama waited for Yusuke and the others as he stared at the cave from a tree.
When the others arrived Kurama had successfully fallen asleep on his feet.in the tree. Hiei jumped up and shook Kurama, "Stupid fox, WAKE UP!!!" Kurama opened his eyes, "Oh, hello. I was waiting for you." Raven smiled, "I don't remember you being like this, you've been human too long." Of course, he said it so low not even Hiei heard it. "Shall we go inside?" "I feel it's safe, but Yusuke left heavy tracks, so he should circle around back to camp," said Kurama. "It's only for everyone's safety," he explained. Yusuke started to walk off. "Oh and Yusuke," said Raven, "Be careful." Yusuke nodded, a bit ticked that he didn't get to stay, and wandered off. "I wonder if he realizes he's headed in the wrong direction?" asked Hiei. Kurama chuckled. "Let's check out this cave," he said, "Hiei, watch the entrance." Hiei started to silently sulk on his branch. A demon was more likely to be inside the cave then coming to it. Kurama and Raven walked together into the cave, their strides perfectly matched.
