Kagura grabbed her arm again. "Its back. Why?" Yusuke and Koenma came into the room. Yusuke looked around sensing something. Creeeeeeek. The door inched open and a faint smell filled the room. A slash appeared across Yusuke's cheek. Kagura got up off the bed. A figure appeared before them. It had brownish black hair with glowing green eyes. "Ah. Here we are yet again. Lets just make it easy on the demon." The figure was a male. He walked towards Kagura and grabbed her hand. Yusuke wanted to shoot him so badly. Kagura shook her head and looked towards the fireplace. The fire was a glowing a bright green. "Thanks for the offer.' Kagura said as she backed the guy into the fire. "I kinda like my demons spicy and cooked." Before the demon fell he shouted. "I'll be back with my army. Then we will take Mekai and I will have you and the powers." Kagura scoffed and rolled her eyes. The guy burned and got all nice and toasty. Kagura sighed. "What did they mean when they said the powers?" Yusuke asked. "Although I don't really like talking about it. I have the power to bring the dead back with my blood. He wants that power. He had the chance a few years ago to "take me" and he didn't. I don't know what the hell makes him think he's gonna get another chance unless by force and he ain't strong at all." Yusuke shook his head "You cuss? Hard to believe."

Everyone agreed that Kagura would stay at the palace with Koenma. Sniper would stay with Yusuke. Daneillea and Saya would stay somewhere close to Kurama. Hiei would be on his own. "When am I allowed to see the humans and their world?' Kagura asked Koenma. He shrugged and said, "Depends on the enemy." Kagura went to her room. She lies on her back. The window was open and it overlooked the portal that everyone was leaving through. She sighed and fell asleep. *She woke up in a black room. Her mother was leaning against someone. He held her close to him and soothed her. A crying came from the corner and the he picked her up. "My little girl. Kagura." Then room faded into a light green color. Hiei was limping up towards a tree. He collapsed and she picked him up and carried him to the nearest lake. She put the wounded parts of him in the water and watched him heal. The room faded into a light blue and a person who she could tell was a male was holding her. They were in Mekai and the cities were in ruins. She leaned against him and he held out his hand to her. She took it and he led her away. It was darker and she heard herself crying. The person form before was coming towards her. He latched his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek. The room was pink now and she realized that she was holding something small. She looked down and a pair of green eyes met hers. The eyes began to fill with tears. She held the eyes against her shoulder. The same person from the blue room was sitting next to her and had his arm around her shoulder. Then it all faded* 'damn her. I keep her thoughts. That wasn't the agreement.' Kagura thought as she sifted under the cover and went to sleep.

When Kagura woke up it was daylight. She sat up and looked around the room was a dark shade of red. She heard the door click. Sniper came in and sat beside her. He put hand on her forehead. She looked at him confused. "You've had a fever. I'm just making sure it came down. You still feel a little hot but not as bad as before." Kagura smiled at him. "Whose room?" She said looking around for the third time. She saw several trophies for what she couldn't tell. "Mine. Those "he pointed to the trophies. "are for "Best performance and "Best Kept." Kagura looked at him. "How did I get here? I mean I was just asleep and the window was open." "That's what gave you the fever and if I hadn't got you a cold would have been the case. That might have been a bit harder to explain to my sister and mom." "Hagari! It's Kari. Mom says to let me in. She wants me to ask the lady if she's alright." Sniper let the six-year old blonde headed girl in. She had light blue eyes. She came and sat on the bed across from Kagura. "She seems okay now. Hagari how'd you get her to wake up."

The six year old looked at her brother. "Is she gonna be my new sister?" Sniper went bright red. "Maybe. It's our little secret. 'Kay? Kari." The she nodded. Sniper was still red as ever. Kari went to the door. "Wait if she's gonna be your wife why haven't ya'll kissed yet?" Kari asked with a fox's curiosity. Kagura got up and walked to where Sniper was standing. She kissed his cheek and smiled to Kari. "There does that count?" Kari nodded. Sniper was as red a human could go. Kagura shook her head. Yusuke came as Kari left. "Is he blushing? What happened? Did I miss something?" "Yes. You missed when Kagura kissed him. On the cheek anyways. It was so adorable." Daneillea cooed. They all sensed a presence." Yes. It's cute and all until someone hurts the other. Or another hurts one and takes all.-"Sniper had his hand out and was shooting the dice off of it. "Thank you!" Kagura rolled her eyes. Yusuke came out from behind the door. Kagura made a tsk, tsk, noise and wagged her finger at him.

Hiei was lurking out side the window. He thought he spotted a gray fox leaping from the window. The gray fox went behind a bush. Hiei decided to follow it. He came to a different area that wasn't connected to the human realm. The cat began to glow a bright red. "See now. I hate it when you give me that look." Hiei leaned closer towards the fox. 'Youko!' Hiei thought about going to get Yusuke. He waited to see whom he was talking to. Hiei moved to another branch closer to the ground. He still couldn't see what Youko was talking to. Youko walked towards a lake, a small fox was inside a glowing circle. Hiei couldn't tell its color but it looked at Youko with disgust. "Come on. Give me a break. Its not like I have anybody to explain to. I stole you from them right from the castle." Hiei noted it was getting dark. The moon came right on to the lake and the fox went under the water. When it came back up it was a girl. She looked like someone he knew. Youko went to the girl and grabbed her arm. She growled and bared fangs. Youko made a face of mock terror. "Look. I don't like you unhappy even if your mother hands over the kingdom. I'll still have you." The girl turned away from him. Hiei recognized the silver hair and the silver eyes with the blue ring. He didn't recognize the blue dress she was wearing. It bared her shoulders and had a blue scarf around it. He wanted to kill Youko at that very moment just for keeping her against her will.

Youko stepped towards the girl and pinned her against the wall. Hiei readied for he Fist of the Mortal Flame. Youko still had a grip on the girl's arm. "Look. I don't think you understand me. I just need you to submit. How hard is it to except the fact that no one will want you because you won't talk. Rika. Look at me when I'm saying something to you." Hiei stared at the girl dumbstruck. 'She was supposed to be sleeping.' Hiei was glancing back at Rika. He went to get Yusuke. He sensed Yusuke in the park so he veered right. When he felt Yusuke's energy close he raised his ki. Kagura was hanging all over Sniper and Yusuke. With a jealous Kayko behind them. +Yusuke! Get your human ass over here now! + Yusuke looked towards the tree where Hiei was and jumped in it. "What Hiei?" "Yusuke. Get everyone to follow you. I found Youko and he's got a captive. Kurama might be able to seal him inside again. The balance of every realm depends on this captive. Hurry!" Yusuke jumped down. Kayko was the first to ask the most obvious question. "What was that about?" Yusuke explained what Hiei told him.

Kurama and Daneillea were the first to agree to go. Kayko said she'd go and Sniper did too. Kagura on the other hand said no. They all left her. 'I've got to stop that demon or else.' She began off into the forest. Hiei had led them to a lake area. "Hiei. If you're planning a vacation. This is so not the spot for some rays." Hiei appeared beside him and shook his head. The moon was now full and still on the lake. Youko was now soaking his feet in the water. Rika was still in her regular form. She got up and went into the water. The water rose around her and when it cleared she was a silver fox. She lie down and closed her eyes. Youko moved to her side and put a collar around her neck. The color was gold and it had many amethysts on it. Rika tried to shake it off he neck it didn't come off. Youko chuckled and put the fox in his lap. She began to growl and Youko clamped his hand over her muzzle. He stroked the fox and the clouds started across the lake. "It could always be like this minus the growling. Rika consider it you'll still be queen and have someone who cares about you." Youko began stroking the fox again and she was asleep and didn't growl. The clouds cleared and Youko went into the water still holding the fox. The water came around the fox and she turned human looking again. Hiei again readied for an attack with the dragon. Yuoko sat down with the girl in his arms. He began rubbing his hands along the length of her arms. That was the breaking point for Hiei. "Dragon of the darkness flame." It went straight for Youko and Rika.
