Chapter 10

The next morning I got up before sunrise. As I walked out of the room I noticed that everyone was still sleeping. So I tried to not to wake anybody up,but I didn't succeed. Kurama caught me before I got to the door and stopped me.

"Where are you going?"he asked. "It's not even dawn yet."

"I'm going for a walk Kurama. Don't worry about me."

"Then let me come with you."

"What?"

"Just in case something does happen?"

"You think that he'd be out there?"

"I doubt it. But I don't want you to get hurt. Especially if there are demons out there."

"You should go back to sleep Kurama."

"So should you."

"I'm not going to fight Kurama."

"Why not?"

"I can't Kurama...I just can't. And it's not just because of Sakyou. I just don't feel comfortable here. I didn't even want to come here in the first place. You know how much I hate demons."

"I know. Are you really sure you don't want to fight."

"Unless someone gets killed."

"She's being reasonable you know,"said Hiei,who was in hiding(somewhat)in a corner.

"You've been standing there long enough I guess?"

"Well,at least you aren't stupid like some people here."

I rolled my eyes. I knew that he didn't like it that Kuwabara was in love with his sister. Kuwabara and Hiei aren't the best of friends(actually,Hiei doesn't really get a long with everybody. He's very tolerant of people.). I got out of the way so he could leave. I didn't like messing with Hiei. Well,I just wanted to be careful.

"Are you ok?"asked Kurama.

"No I'm not Kurama and you know that. Maybe Sakyou was right..."

"What did he say?"

"He said that I shouldn't be fighting. I'm just going to get myself killed. I just didn't know what to think."

He sighed. "I'm not going to stop you. You should do what's right. I don't want you to leave me. Not now at least." He hugged me and our lips met. "I think you made a wise decision.

"I just want to be with you Kurama."

"And I'm glad."

I was so glad that Kurama was going on a walk with me. I just didn't feel safe here and I knew that he knew that. I was afraid too. I was afriad that Sakyou might do something if he saw me again. Especially if he saw me with Kurama. Would he try to hurt Kurama? I would have to kill him if he did that.

Kurama told me that he would have to go back to the hotel before leaving for the tournament. I wanted to go back with him,but something in my head told me that I should just wait outside,just in case something happened. And something did happen. I saw Sakyou...again.

"I told you to leave,"he said as he came up to me.

"Is that a threat? If it makes you feel any better,I'm not going to fight."

"Good. At least you have brains."

"Just leave me alone Sakyou."

"What are you going to do? You don't actually think that Kurama is going to hurt me do you?"

"You don't know him."

"I know him well enough."

"Just shut up and go away. You're a filty rich bastard and I never want to see your face anymore Sakyou. You caused enough pain for me already.

"Then answer this question."

"What?"

"Why did you leave me?"

"Why do you think Saykou? We were different. I never wanted anything that you ever gave me. We just didn't see eye to eye Sakyou. But then again,why didn't you get any of your men to haunt me down?"

"Because...I saw you run away."

"Dammit. The cameras..."I whispered.

"You were crying so I thought there would be no point in me following you."

"Then you understand now. Good. Now leave me alone!"

"Just one more thing."

"What?"

"You had better make sure that this boyfriend of your's doesn't get killed,"and he walked off.

"Nicole!"Kurama said as he found me.

"It's ok. He didn't try to hurt me."

"I know that." He hugged me and kissed me on the forhead. "Are you truly sure that you don't want to do this?"

"For the last time Kurama,yes! But I will stay with you."

"Ok good. Let's go then."

"Yes. Let's go."
