Ok, you guys, sorry this is such a short chapter compared to the others but I finally got it out. I hope you like it.

There was a high pitched sound like a flute that sounded in the air. A strange tune played and at first, nothing happened. Then, Lydia walked into a park that stood not too far away. Yusuke followed her all the way into the middle of a thick wood. She stopped abruptly and Yusuke hid behind a tree at a safe distance as he spied on her. He stared and dropped his jaw. Lydia was affected by the flute's song. She transformed. Her hair turned pink and shrunk until it was pixie short and her eyes turned totally white. Her clothes stayed the same but her body shape totally changed. He thin, pale features suddenly turned tan and a little muscular and she grew a considerable amount taller. Yusuke watched as her innocent, fun-loving face morphed into an expressionless and emotionless one.

"What the hell? It's like she's a zombie" thought Yusuke as Lydia turned her head completely backwards and glared at him. Her eyes glowed silver and her mouth curled into a sinister smile.

"I knew you'd follow," whispered a voice from the wind. Turning her head back around in its proper position, Lydia laughed and turned her whole body in Yusuke's direction and walked forward. Yusuke, obviously freaking out, backed away breaking twigs and rustling leaves. Then, Lydia spoke.

"Yusuke," she bellowed in a voice not her own. "Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you." She hit a tree, busting it into thousands of tiny splinters and then continued forward.

"Oh crap. Oh crap. Oh crap!" whispered Yusuke to himself. "What am I going to do? I can't fight her. I'll kill her if I try. She's so innocent..or WAS innocent. I can't hit her knowing what the real her is like." He turned around and burst into a run.

"You can run," said the zombie of Lydia, "but you can't hide." She followed him and to a playground.

"I have to. I have to," thought Yusuke and he stopped, turned around, and began powering up. His right index finger glowed light blue and her raised it to meet Lydia, who had caught up with him. "I don't want to hurt you, Lydia."

"Ha! Try to hurt me," said Lydia with a sarcastic smile. Yusuke decided to save the spirit gun for later and took her challenge and sprinted over to her. He put all the strength he had into one punch and his fist went sailing into her face. He made contact and hoped he hadn't done too much damage. Pulling back his hand he found..nothing happened. His hit was hadn't done a thing to her and the same sarcastic smirk lay on her face.

"What??" cried Yusuke.

"I told you," said Lydia. "You couldn't hurt me even if you tried. Ever heard of how hard dragon scales are? My skin is ten times tougher. And don't bother trying to attack me from the inside. You can only get me that way with your spirit energy. My whole body from brain to toenail is impervious to it."

"Not good. What am I going to do?" thought Yusuke. Lydia held him up by his collar and gave one hard punch in the face. His body went flying onto the ground and rolled until it painfully hit a nearby tree. He stood up while she walked calmly over and when she came close enough, he continuously showered him with hits in the stomach until she hit him so hard that he coughed up blood. He fell on the grass with a thud and when she was about to kick him again, a green blur came out of nowhere. The Lydia zombie lay on the ground wrapped in a spiky green vine.

"I thought you might need help," said the voice of Kurama to Yusuke. He walked out of the shade of the trees while Lydia fought to get out of the Rose Whip's coiling grip. Then suddenly, the mysterious flute came again and Lydia transformed back into herself. Her hair turned back to its original length and shade, her skin lightened, her eyes resumed their natural color, and her body shrunk until she was regular height. Yusuke nudged her with his foot but her whole body was limp so nothing happened.

"What wrong with her?" asked Yusuke not taking his eyes off her for fear that she might wake up and punch his brains out.

"I don't know. I saw what happened. Strange," replied Kurama. "Changing the subject, Botan changed apartment complexes. She didn't like the owner of the other one. Or he didn't like her. Anyway, you're sharing one with Kuwabara and Botan and I'm sharing another adjoining apartment with Hiei."

"But Hiei sleeps in a tree," said Yusuke. "And he's always somewhere else by himself. He'll never even be there."

"I know. That's why I asked to share with him. I'll take her back with me so we don't have to cram her in your apartment. We'll see how she is in the morning."

"Ok, but don't get any ideas, fox boy," said Yusuke who was kidding but still a little serious at the same time. Kurama chuckled and retracted his Rose Whip back into a flower and picked Lydia up before walking with Yusuke to the new apartment complex.

When they got there, Yusuke went and told the Botan and Kuwabara what happened while Kurama went to his own apartment. He kicked open the door with Lydia in his arms and laid her on the small couch that stood in the middle of the room. He listened in silence and put his ear near her mouth.

"She's breathing," he thought. "So she should be ok. I just need to keep her here until she wakes up. He got up, sat in a chair, and turned on the TV. He watched it until it was about 10 o'clock (dang, that's a long time). He clicked it off with the remote and looked over at Lydia who still hadn't woken up yet. He walked over and bent down before making sure she was still breathing.

(Sorry to change POV on you all of a sudden) Kurama's POV

I couldn't be sure when she would wake up but it I knew she'd be ok. She must have just been tired from using much more energy that her original body had so she'd be asleep for a while. I just had to watch over her until she's well again. She twitched slightly and I smiled. She was even more innocent looking when she was asleep. I stroked her hair a little. I couldn't help it because she was so beautiful. I admitted it but I couldn't get emotional or it'll get in my way, as Hiei says. We have to stop her and if I get attached and Yusuke kills her, it'll just be more pain for me.

She began to stir a little and amazingly, she opened her eyes a little but. She looked right at me for a moment or two then looked around and said, "Where am I?"

"At my apartment," I said softly. "Are you ok?"

"Kurama? What happened? Why am I here?"

"You don't remember?"

"No. I remember walking home from school and then I fainted. It happens a lot."

"Oh, I found you on the sidewalk so I took you here to nurse you back to health."

"I'm fine now." She tried to sit up but fell right back down. "I'm so tired."

"Sleep then. Don't worry about anything but getting your strength back. I'll be around if you need anything," I said slowly standing up. She looked up at me, smiled, and then muttered something that I couldn't understand. She looked so peaceful asleep. She was beautiful.
