Heh heh heh....Well, I know what you are thinking. Kill the authoress
'cause she hasn't updated in so long! Well, I'm afraid I can't let you do
that. But I am very sorry for not updating sooner. I had guests over almost
constantly during Winter break, so I couldn't go on the computer, and I had
end-of-semester tests to study for. Then, I've become extremely lazy, and
I've started Biology this semester, which is going to be very difficult.
Hiei: Enough of your excuses. You've just been to lazy to type another chapter.
Me: Shut up, Hiei. Or do I have to call Yukina?
Hiei: that's called Blackmail, right?
Me: I call it " Rather forceful persuasion". But, by normal human standards, yes, that is called Blackmail. However, if you do the disclaimer and scat in 10 seconds, the you are fine.
Hiei: Hn. Jenni owns nothing and never will own anything, except for a few YYH cards, DVD's, and VHS's. Happy, baka Ningen?
Me: Very. Now SCRAM! Well, anyway... Yes, Karasu (which actually means "Crow." I looked it up in my new Japanese dictionary) was killed by Kurama in the Dark Tournament, but you will see how he came back to life in the story if you continue reading and do not flame me! Now, where did Hiei get to...?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hiei was next to Yusuke, who was in the middle. On Yusuke's right was Kuwabara.
"How the hell did we get here?" Yusuke asked as they floated along.
"I have no clue. But Karasu is back and he has Kurama," Hiei said, worry flickering over his features.
"WHAT?!?! I thought Kurama killed the damn crow!" Yusuke practically screeched in Hiei's ear.
"So did I. Apparently, he found a way to come back." Hiei glared at nothing in particular.
(A/N: No, this is not a yaoi story. At first, I thought I might change it into something like that, but I decided against it. By the way, in the last chapter, when Kurama was acting sly, it was because he was thinking that he was going to let Hiei think he was winning, then go into his demon form and beet him. Sorry for those of you who took the wrong meaning!)
"Well, this royally sucks," Kuwabara said, the first words he'd spoken the entire trip.
~*~*~*~*~ With Kurama...~*~*~*~*~
Karasu put Kurama down gently on a chair in the place he was currently residing in. Kurama growled at him and glared before turning his back on the crow demon and jumping off the chair to get as far away as possible.
"Now, now. Can't have you running away, now, can we?" Karasu asked, striding over the fox-turned-cat. He picked Kurama up and set him in a little pen. When Kurama tried to jump over the top, there was a small purple-red glow where he had hit the top.
Karasu laughed, without any real mirth in it. "As you can see, you will not be able to escape. You might as well just sit around and wait for your friends to come."
Kurama growled and went into the darkest corner of the pen he could find. That, however, had almost no effect because of his fur. Kurama cursed mentally and fell into a very light doze.
~*~*~*~*~ Back with Yusuke and the other two...~*~*~*~*~
"Hey! Urameshi, look! There's a cave over there and we're headed right towards it!" Kuwabara yelled, stating the obvious.
"No shit, Sherlock!" Yusuke yelled back at him, hitting him over the head with his paw.
When they landed, they saw a pen with a flash of silver and red in one corner, and Karasu sitting in a chair on the other side of the room. Karasu smirked and stood. "I see you have finally made it. Took Jin long enough to get you here, though. Well, you might as well take one last look outside because that's the last time your going to see it for a while... if you ever even see it again, that is," Karasu said, his smirk widening.
Hiei growled and crouched down like he was going to pounce on something. Instead, he ran for the pen and was almost immediately at Kurama's side on the outside of the pen. "Kitsune, wake up! Come on, we've got to get out of here soon!" Hiei hissed to him.
Kurama immediately awoke. He shook his head sadly and said, "I can't, Hiei. I've already tried. There's some sort of Spirit Shield on the top of it. Once you're in, you're not getting out without Him Putting the shield down, and that most likely happen unless he has to drop something in here."
By that time, Yusuke and Kuwabara were over there as well. There was silence for a moment.
"What are we gonna do?" Yusuke asked quietly.
Kurama shook his head. "I don't know. I just don't know."

Yay! I finished yet another chapter! And I avoided being killed by the readers! By the way, before I can continue this, I need at least 5 more reviews. No, Kim, you can't just give me a whole lot of reviews. No matter how many you give me, they all only count as one. Well, I hope that you review soon! Ja ne! JenniHennyPenny!
P.S.: I have pictures of Hiei as a kitten, which is what I was doing while you were reading the story. I found Hiei, turned him into a kitten for a while, took pictures, and ran! IT ACTUALLY WORKED!!! Well, Please R&R!
