Chapter Six
"Do you think she's alright?" asked Yusuke looking at Kurama. "Yeah, I do, she's just resting, wearing off the shock and everything, sorta strange though, I've never heard of any demons that had a paralyzing type of skin." Kurama and the others were sitting around in his living room, Yusuke and Kuwabara didn't go to school because they heard about Mitsuko and they figured it wasn't worth it at the time. So they were all discussing the past nights events. First Mr. Takaneuchi, then Mitsuko, what next? Or more likely who next?
"Well, we were wondering when something was going to happen, I'm sure we'll hear from Koenma soon. It would only make sense. I don't know what to say to her though, it seems like it would be a traumatic experience. Oh well, I'm going to go see how she is. I don't want her waking up and being scared." Kurama said and walked up the stairs into his room were he left her.
Everything was just starting to come together for Mitsuko she didn't know what to think, say, do. She just realized what happened, and hadn't even opened her eyes in fear that she'd be in a nasty area surrounded by people she didn't like, or know. But despite her thoughts her feelings betrayed her, She felt the warmth of the bed and its comforter, the fluff of the pillow holding her head. She knew that this wasn't some dark dank filthy cell somewhere where a demon might keep her. She wanted to know what was going on, she wanted to know where she was, so she opened her eyes. She noticed that she was just thinking the worst possible situation, and she let out a sigh of relief. 'Man I though I was going to be dead. I'm not dead am I?' It hit her that she could be then Kurama walked in and smiled at her.
"So your awake, I see. That's good, I'm glad you weren't to frightened when you woke up, you gave us a scare last night." Kurama said pulling up a chair next to the bed and sitting there looking at her before feeling her forehead. "You still have a slight fever, that paralyzing stuff had a slight poison in it as well. It wasn't pretty."
Mitsuko looked at him and wondered what he was referring to when he said "us". "Kurama, what do you mean, by 'us'?" she questioned him. "And, what happened, who were those demons, what did they want?"
"Whoa, slow down, I can't answer everything, I don't know who they were, but we'll find their leader so no one tries to hurt you again." He said pushing a strand of hair out of her face.
'Why is he being so nice, did I really scare him that bad?' she thought to herself and then turned to stare at the ceiling.
"Us." said a cool steely voice from the corner of the room nearest the window. It was Hiei, in his usual black attire.
"My, nice to see you Hiei, now what do you mean by us?" Kurama asked not fully understanding the demons word.
"She was thinking that you were being to nice, and that you must have been scared bad, I was scared too, Ok?" he said facing Mitsuko.
"…Hiei Thanks." She said smiling at him "I appreciate it. But I don't appreciate you reading my mind!" she said with a kind then harder tone of voice.
Kurama could only watch the two, fight, "I was only trying to be nice, don't' bite me! I don't care what happens to you!" Hiei said, "Well, next time I ever think you need help I wont give a damn, I'll tell Rekai you killed Mr. Takaneuchi! They don't really know who did!" Mitsuko said sitting up real quick.
"Please, Mitsuko don't sit up, you shouldn't be moving!" Kurama said to her trying to coax her back down.
"Sorry Kurama," she said standing up and heading for the door "That midget just asked me to leave, and I'm going to, Good bye." She opened and closed the door behind her before Kurama could say anything, after he left he looked at Hiei who was wide eyed and gone within twenty seconds. All Kurama could do was sigh.
"Goddamned little man." She said walking into the guest room closing the door then changing into something suitable to wear. She found a pair of black corduroys and red tank top with a hoody that she could put on over the top of the shirt. After she was happy with what she was wearing she walked out of the room and into the hallway that lead past the living room and to the door. On the way out she noticed that Kuwabara and Yusuke were there. So she stopped to say hi.
"Hello, Yusuke, Kuwabara." She nodded to both "Why are you two here so early? Shouldn't you be in school?"
"And shouldn't you be resting?" came a voice from behind her, It was Kurama.
"I'll decide when I'm well enough to go out and when I'm I'll enough to stay in." she said walking out of the house and onto the sidewalk. 'What has gotten into me, usually, I'd agree with Kurama, I still feel woozy. Damned little demon.' She cursed as she walked down the sidewalk to the park, she knew the way, and her feet would take her there no matter what happened now, though she felt a raindrop hit her cheek. She looked up to the sky to see the oncoming rain clouds and the ones that were already there. She kept on walking though, straight on to the park, nothing in her mind except the events of the past night.
By the time she reached the park it had started to actually rain, it wasn't hard, but it wasn't sprinkling anymore. 'Why does it always rain when something bad happens around here?' she said looking up towards the sky a little. Mitsuko sighed and walked over to a bench and sat down and closed her eyes turning her head to the sky and letting the raindrops fall onto her face.
She could have stayed like that forever, but the rain stopped, yet she still heard it. She opened her eyes to see Kurama holding an umbrella above her head. 'Why does he do this? He's wasting his time.' "Hello Kurama," She said raising her head up and looking forward.
He walked around to the front of the bench and sat down next to her keeping the umbrella over them. "Why did you leave? I Know Hiei said something, but usually he doesn't get to you, what's wrong?" he asked looking at her.
"I had to get out that's all, but every time I do it rains, I wish it would stop. It's amazing how much can happen in a day after having nothing, happen at all, its overwhelming." The rain started to clear up a little and it rained softly.
"Looks like you might get your wish. And, don't worry about it, we're all here for ya." Kurama said. "Lets go home so you can get dried off. As soon as the rain clears up I'll take ya for a walk. " Mitsuko cut him off before he could continue.
"Kurama, its ok, I feel sorta like I need to train harder now, I was almost napped last night, I need to be stronger." She said looking down then standing up. "So I'm gonna start training more by myself and stuff, so I might only see you in school." She walked off.
'What has gotten into her? She use to be so cooperative, now she's distant.' " Like she was when we first met." He got up and ran to catch up with her. 'Maybe something happened between someone, maybe I did something…' "Mitsuko, Wait!!" Kurama said almost halfway to her. She turned around and waited for him to catch up. "Yes?" she said coolly.
Just then Botan appeared out of nowhere "Hey there you two!" she said in her chirpy voice.
"Botan?" they said almost in unison. Kurama had just caught up with Mitsuko. "What's going on you two, why are you out here in the rain? You'll catch cold." She said with slight concern.
"I wanted to go for a walk, do you have info for us Botan?" Mitsuko asked.
Botan looked at Mitsuko, "Of course. We should go back to Kurama's first though, that way you two can dry off, Jeeze, figured you two would be smarter than that." She said thinking out loud, "well anyways, hop on and we'll get you two home quick." So they did and they were back at Kurama's before they could count to three.
After they were dried off Botan had them all sit down in the living room and watch the tape she had hidden away in the sleeve of her Kimono.
The snow on the video cleared up to show baby Koenma sitting at his desk witch was being piled up with papers. He hopped up onto the desk and started talking 'Now, everyone, this is of up-most importance. You are to track a demon clan that call themselves the Blue Tycoons. Cheesy name I know, but they are the ones that attacked Mitsuko. We still don't know who attacked the teacher in the street chances are it was a type of assassin hired by the Blue Tycoons. That's all I have on those two cases, but if they took a human heart they may be using it for some sort of project, these attacks may be more frequent. As for Mitsuko, we dug up some more info; we'll have that sent to her as soon as we have it compiled. So Yusuke and the gang are suppose to be tracking down these blue tycoons and they may be using a port from Makai to ningenkai. You may want to look out for them. Good luck detectives.' With that the tape went back to snow and Botan took the tape out of the machine.
"That explains a lot." Yusuke said.
"Do you think that we'll be seeing more of these Blue Tycoons?" asked Kuwabara.
"Yeah, course we will, you dolt." Said Hiei.
"Well anyways, it's getting late, you guys should prolly be getting home." Said Kurama. And they agreed. Hiei had left first, then Kuwabara, then Yusuke.
Soon everything was quiet and Kurama and Mitsuko decided to go to bed. They had to go to school tomorrow.
AN: that's all for tonight!! x.x I'll update a lot in Feb. I hope. I don't know what I'll get done for the rest of Jan. but hopefully something good!! Review peeps.
