Tears of Fire Chapter Four: Fight
I'll fight 'till the end, and save my soul
I see all, and you'll never know - Fight - A song written by me
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
****Youko Kurama ran deep into the dark forest. His silver hair was catching the moonlight and made it shimmer as it danced along the soft strands. He paused when he came to a clearing and growled when a dark figure moved into the moonlight. The figure removed it's hood from the cloak it was wearing and grinned demonically when Kurama growled again.
Ryuko's ice blue eyes flashed when Kurama brought his rose whip out, and he grinned wider when he pushed a small figure in the path of the whip instead of him. Kurama's golden eyes widened in horror when the whip collided with Hiei and tore through his soft flesh. Hiei fell to the ground, and Kurama was backing up and shaking his head as he stared at the whip in his hand. Kurama dropped it, still staring at his hands, and looked back and forth between Hiei and the blood stained flower now lying in place of the whip.
"No, no, no!"
Ryuko smiled. "Yes, my fox. If I can't have you then you both shall die." He laughed when Kurama shakily walked over to where Hiei lie and sat down beside him. He picked the still form up and began crying as he held Hiei to his chest.
'When one dies, the other soon follows.' Koenma's words echoed in the fox's head and he could feel himself growing tired. As the darkness rose to claim him, Kurama went on with his quiet chant of, "No, no, no. I didn't kill him! No, no...no..."****
"No!" Kurama sat up with a gasp and immediately looked over at Hiei, who was lying with his back to Kurama. Kurama sighed and looked down at his hands, where he now felt an irritating stinging. Small, half moon shaped cuts were lined along his palms, where his hands had clenched together in sleep.
Glancing over at Hiei once more to assure himself that everything was all right, Kurama quietly got out of bed and stepped out onto the small porch outside his room. He leaned against the railing and stared up at the stars. The quarter moon shined a soft light on the grass, illuminating the small remaining rain drops from the storm the night before. Kurama sighed again, and began humming the tune of a song he had written a long while back.
When he had finished humming the song, he smiled as he felt warm arms wrap around his waist from behind. Hiei placed a kiss between Kurama's shoulder blades and leaned his head on the fox's back. "You OK?"
"I'll be fine. Just another nightmare." Kurama turned around in the embrace and wrapped his arms around Hiei's shoulders. "I keep seeing him in my dreams. It's like he's found a new way of hurting me, and I can't make it stop."
Hiei didn't respond, instead he lifted his head and gently kissed Kurama. He murmured against Kurama's lips, "We'll make it stop," and deepened the kiss.
*~*~~*~*
Kurama sighed angrily as he listened to his manager's ranting. He had called Kurama after he found where the singer was staying, and started to rant and rave about Kurama and Ryuko's disappearing before their last show.
"Do you have any idea the amount of money we lost!? Two of my members disappearing into thin air! You could have given me a notice! Your lucky I'm not ending our contract here and now!"
"Listen Michael, I had to leave suddenly because of an emergency. I didn't know about it until the night before our show, and I had to leave quickly. I have no idea where Ryuko is, or why he left, but he did not leave with me. So you find him on your own. Also, the money doesn't matter, and you could end my contract for all I care. I have many other labels waiting for my contract with you to end. So, if you'll kindly stop yelling, I'd like to get off the phone." With that, he set the receiver back onto the cradle and hung up the phone.
Kurama brought his hands up and massaged his temples. He smiled gratefully as Yukina walked into the room, setting down a tray of tea on the table in front of him. She smiled and handed him a cup before taking one for herself.
"Troubles with your manager?"
Kurama sipped the hot tea. "You could say that. He's upset about me leaving the night before a show."
Yukina set her glass down for a moment. "Was it because of Ryuko?"
"Pardon?"
"When you showed up here. Was it because of Ryuko?"
Kurama swallowed and nodded. "He and I were friends, but that night, he got...how can I put this?...weird. He kept talking about me joining him. I didn't understand what he wanted until the night we went to the club. I have no idea why he has this strange obsession with me, but he's had it for a while. I noticed it while we were touring."
Yukina hesitated before speaking again. "Kurama, do you dream of him?"
"I...how did you know?"
"There's been times at night when I can hear you screaming. I hear you saying, 'No, Ryuko,' and stuff along the lines of, 'Don't touch me'. It's quite scary at times."
"I'm quite sorry if I scare you." Kurama reached out and placed a hand on her arm. "I have no way to keep myself from screaming. There's been times when Hiei hasn't been able to wake me, and in my dreams I think it's Ryuko trying to hurt me."
Yukina's eyes lit up. "Maybe...maybe I could help."
"What do you mean?"
"Your dreams. Maybe I could help you get rid of them!" She seemed happy at the idea of helping him out.
Kurama looked puzzled. "How would you do something like that?"
"It's hard to explain, but Botan has done it to me before; when I had nightmares about those guys who used me for money. She showed me how to do it, and I think it would help!"
Kurama quirked an eyebrow and set his glass down next to Yukina's. She moved forward and placed her hands on Kurama's temples. She closed her eyes and a soft blue light, much like Botan's, emitted from her palms. A soft tingling sensation spread through his body and Kurama felt himself relax. He closed his eyes but, that very same second, a sharp pain throbbed in his head. Kurama screamed, but didn't hear it, and felt his body stiffen.
Kurama's hands flew up to his head and he threaded his fingers through his long hair. He screamed again as an image of Ryuko laughing evilly flashed behind his eyelids, along with another stab of white-hot pain. The image faded and Kurama vaguely heard Yukina's frightened voice call for Hiei and Genkai before passing out.
*~*~~*~*
A scared female's voice, "I didn't mean to! I was only trying to help him!"
"What were you helping him with!?" Another female.
A male voice, "Ladies, please, you can discuss what happened later. We need to get him up to my place quickly!"
Sarcastic old woman, "What can your dimwits in your 'castle in the sky' do?"
An exasperated sigh from the male earlier. "We need to run some tests."
These were the sounds that met Kurama's ears before a strong body lifted him, and a rush of air blew across his face; signifying either flight or extremely fast movement. Kurama kept his eyes squeezed shut, afraid that if he opened them, he would get sick. He lost track of time and had no idea if it had been seconds, minutes or even hours before whoever was carrying him began walking on solid ground.
Kurama peeked open one eye and saw that he was following Koenma and Botan. To his left, Yukina and Genkai were conversing quietly. He closed his eyes as his head gave a dim throb of pain. \Ow....my head....\
The arms around his back and under his knees tightened briefly in an awkward hug. /How do you feel?/
\Dizzy, I have a terrible headache, and feel like I'm going to be sick.\ Kurama turned his face into Hiei's chest in an attempt to block the bright lights now glowing around him and through his eyelids.
Hiei paused and listened to Koenma. "We're going to look into his mind and see if there's been any damage. Hiei, lie him over there," he paused, obviously motioning to Hiei. "Is he still asleep? He needs to be asleep for us to do this..."
*~*~~*~*
Kurama stared at the white ceiling, waiting for Koenma to give him the sleeping gas. As if reading his thoughts, Kurama soon smelled a relaxing scent of roses and something similar to the salty air of the ocean. Kurama's body felt as though he was floating in water and he closed his eyes in surrender to the heavy feeling of sleep.
Koenma hit a little blue button on the computer he sat in front of and nodded to Botan, who removed the mask from Kurama's sleeping face. She placed the mask on the table behind her and took the two wires that hung from the back of the computer and taped them to Kurama's temples. Kurama's dreams soon appeared on a screen in the front of the room, and soon, the whole room was watching with wide, horrified eyes.
*~*~~*~*
Kurama groaned and turned his head to the side, trying to bury his face in the soft pillows underneath him. Without opening his eyes, he could tell the bright lights would hurt him. The throbbing headache he had earlier had doubled in magnitude. Kurama groaned again when a soft voice spoke in his ear.
"Hey, time to wake up." Even though it was meant to be soft, it killed Kurama's head. Kurama grabbed the pillow nearest to him and placed it over his head. The person who woke him chuckled and took the pillow out of his hands. Kurama peeked open an eye and groaned for the third time when Yusuke gave him a wide smile.
"How can you be so happy?" Kurama sighed and opened both eyes, expecting to see a room full of people, and saw only Yukina and Botan. Botan smiled and got up from the chair that she was sitting in.
"You've been out for a while now. We were getting ready to let Hiei in. He's been ranting for hours, and we thought that it might wake you, seems how nothing else would." She laughed along with the other three and smiled again. "How are you feeling Kurama? We didn't find any damage, but we did find some pretty interesting things that could help us with our search for Ryuko."
"I feel like crap, and what kind of things?" Kurama pushed himself into a sitting position. Botan didn't get to answer the question at the moment because a rather angry, and yelling, Hiei entered the room. Genkai and Kuwabara were arguing with him, but stopped when they saw Kurama's puzzled face staring back at them from the bed. Kurama opened his mouth to greet them, but he was suddenly stopped when Hiei slipped into the bed behind him and growled at the others. He actually growled. Hiei grabbed Kurama, placed him on his lap, and continued to growl.
Kurama stopped long enough to look behind him at Hiei and raise an eyebrow, before greeting Genkai and Kuwabara and then looking pointedly at Botan; he was waiting for her to answer his question. Botan sweatdropped, but answered the Youko's question.
"We were able to find clues in your dreams, " she shuddered here, "to where he's been hiding. We seem to think that it's in the Raining Forest in the Makai. From the looks of things, he's been entering your mind, trying to get you to somehow break."
Hiei's growls got louder and Kurama looked back at him. "Why on earth are you growling? One might think you were a dog."
Hiei growled once before answering. "You. Why didn't you tell me what your dreams consisted of?"
Kurama raised his other eyebrow. "I thought you could tell. Between the bond and your Jagan, I thought that you already knew."
Hiei narrowed his eyes before turning his head to glare at the wall. Kurama shook his head and turned back to his companions. Yukina was staring at him from her place on her chair, shaking. Kurama softened his expression and smiled at the young girl. "You did nothing wrong, Yukina. Why are you shaking?" His voice was soft and reassuring.
Tear gems soon started rolling out of her eyes, and down her cheeks. She then launched herself at Kurama and hugged him tightly around the neck. "I could have killed you! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you! Oh please, don't hate me!" Kurama smiled, patted her back, and whispered assurances that he was perfectly fine.
*~*~~*~*
Kurama was up and about in no less than a day and Koenma allowed him to go home after they went over the things found in Kurama's mind. Kurama had entered his room at his mother's house, after spending an hour making up some lies about what happened to his apartment. Shiori was only to happy to let him stay there and she had made plans to take him out shopping for new clothes the very next day. He was smiling happily and was humming a soft tune as he walked around his old room and paused when a small white envelope caught his eye. Picking it up, he noticed that Kurama, not Shuuichi, was written onto the front. Shrugging it off to be a note or something from Yusuke or one of the others, Kurama opened the note carefully. He stopped dead when he realized that it DEFINITELY was NOT a note from Yusuke.
*My fox,
It seems as though I have failed once again in my attempts to retrieve your soul. I only hope that I will succeed in my next try. I am looking towards our next encounter quite fondly and I have only one bit of advice for you: Watch the fire slowly, for it dies when unattended.
Ryuko*
Kurama read and reread the last comment over and over, trying to figure out it's meaning. He was just about ready to give up when Hiei's mind touched his gently in their way of goodnight, when it hit him. Fire. Fire demon. Hiei. Ryuko was going to kill Hiei. Kurama's eyes widened in horror.
