Here is Lyn's portion of the fic. Enjoy. She did a really good job. -^_^-
**************************************************************************** **************************
Kurama tossed restlessly. The spring heat was making him uncomfortable, and the air weighed thickly on his slim figure. He sighed and sat up throwing the satin sheets over Hiei's still, sleeping form. Walking to the kitchen, Kurama listened half-heartedly to the houseplant's whisperings. He sighed again and dug through the refrigerator for a bottle of water. Once he had obtained this, he made his silent way to the large balcony that had attracted him to this apartment in the first place.
He stood quietly listening to the city and its inhabitants sleeping. Taking a long gulp Kurama stretched and sat heavily upon a cushioned lawn chair. He leaned into the rough fabric of the seat and let the cool breeze wash over him. "Maybe I should come out here more often," he mused to himself. Kurama stretched his arms lazily above his head and smiled as a stiff joint popped faintly. Closing his eyes and leaning further back, Kurama relaxed and let the night lull him into unconsciousness.
**************************************************************************** *****************
"Kurama," sighed the wind and trees around him.
"Kurama," there it was again! Frustrated beyond reason at being woken up, Kurama shifted angrily in the wicker chair.
"Kurama," cooed the voice again.
"Damn it!" Kurama swore and sat up straight. He knew the forest loved him and all that, but did it have to be so stinking loud about it?
"Kurama," hummed the singsong voice again, this time closer.
"Oh, no," Kurama stood quickly as he recognized the voice.
"Kuronue!" he said, as the bat-demon's [1] lithe body materialized not four feet away. His lover smiled at him. Ex-lover Kurama reminded himself, ex- lover. Kuronue's smile widened as though he knew where the kitsune's thoughts were taking him, back to that long ago time where that smile had been enough to spill Kurama to his knees.
"Have you missed me Kurama?" Kuronue asked coyly.
"Kuronue why do you persist, I have a new life now," Kurama stated emotionlessly.
"Come now Rama, surely you haven't forgotten what we had?" Kurama blinked as his ex-lover said the only nickname that he'd ever had.
"What we had is dead, it died with you all those long decades ago." Kurama whispered broken-heartedly.
"We can have that back, you and I! We can be unstoppable once again! Just the two of us!" Kuronue took a step forward. Kurama flinched involuntarily as Kuronue reached for him. Flinched like a coward, he thought, seeing how there is still three feet between us. Kurama glared angrily as he came to realize how much power the demon standing before him had.
***
Inside on their king-sized bed, Hiei rolled over as once again his nightmare claimed him.
He was trapped behind a sheet of ice as Yukina screamed for her tormentor to stop, to just let her go. Behind the ice wall Hiei chopped continuously on the unyielding cold surface, hoping that his katana would break through, praying that he got through in time to save his little sister. The only thing that he had cared about for so long was suffering, and he couldn't save her! Another energy burst pushed the fire youkai to greater force as he tried to get through. "Yukina!" he screamed frantically as blessed darkness eased Hiei into a deeper sleep.
***
Kuronue was walking deliberately toward him with that smile, that perfect, evil smile plastered on his face. Kurama could feel his resolve shattering, could feel the emotion that had forsaken him so many times come rushing back. HIEI! Kurama closed his eyes as his mind screamed at him. Begging him to remember the sleeping yokai in the house behind him. Kurama was jerked suddenly from this train of thought by fingertips. Kuronue's fingertips running teasingly down his cheek. Kurama's beautiful green eyes shot open as Kuronue pressed his lips firmly against the startled kitsune's mouth. The kiss was brief, but Kuronue remained close, standing chest-to-chest with his lover. Kurama's breathing became heavier as Kuronue wrapped his arm firmly around Kurama's waist, pulling him even closer. Once again, Kuronue kissed his lover, but this time he gently pried Kurama's willing mouth open with his tongue. Kurama pulled Kuronue's head further down, to deepen the kiss, and make it last longer. Kuronue's tongue was tickling his own and as much as he wanted to fight, he wanted to stay even more. Kurama ran his palms over his lover's face as Kuronue pulled away to breathe. By now both were panting, and it was getting hot on the small balcony, where they stood, arms completely wrapped around each other.
"Kuronue," panted Kurama as he pulled down Kuronue's face for another kiss.
As soon as their lips touched, a cold sensation seeped up from Kurama's toes to end at his lips. The air grew stagnant, and all light seemed to just end. The cold wrapped around the two of them, and Kurama tried to pull away only to find that he couldn't move at all. As suddenly as it had begun, the coldness stopped, and Kurama pulled away to look around him. They were in the city park.
A chorus of happy cries assaulted him as all of the foliage for a three- mile radius welcomed him back. Kurama winced, and turned back to Kuronue with a questioning look across his perfect features.
"I brought us here for privacy reasons, Rama. Or, do you wish to go back to the balcony?" Kuronue raised an eyebrow.
Kurama opened his mouth unsure what to say. He was rewarded with a slight laugh from Kuronue. Kurama quickly closed his mouth and glared. After all, if you're the greatest thief in all three worlds, then you would be a bit angry if some one laughed at you, I'm sure. Kuronue grinned again and grabbed Kurama's chin playfully between his fingers. Gently he lifted his face and brushed his lips ever so slightly against Kurama's.
Desire flooded through Kurama as Kuronue ran his hand through the flowing red wave of Kurama's hair. Their lips were still barely touching, and Kurama was finding it hard to breathe. "Do you want this, Kurama?" asked his lover affectionately.
Kurama gasped for air and tried to comprehend what was being said. He was sure that he understood Japanese, but he couldn't figure out what all these words meant with Kuronue so close. Finally two thoughts registered, one was that he understood, the other was the fact that he and Hiei were supposed to go somewhere tomorrow.wait.
"Hiei! " Kurama gasped as the thought fully took form. Kuronue growled and jerked away from Kurama as though he had been slapped in the face.
"What of Hiei!?" Kuronue shrieked so loudly that several nearby birds took flight, and the willow tree housing them whined at Kurama for several seconds. "What of Hiei?" he asked again, more quietly this time. While not quite meeting Kurama's eyes.
"I am with Hiei now," Kurama ground out through clenched teeth at his former lover. Kuronue glared daggers at Kurama for a few more seconds before sighing heavily.
"I had hoped you would take to this willingly, Kurama! Now I see that the faithfulness that so attracted me to you will also keep me from you. Very well, Kurama. It was your choice after all," Kuronue shrugged with this statement. Kurama was instantly on guard, not sure of what the bat demon was planning. "I am sorry it came to this, however, Kurama," Kuronue sighed again, more regretfully, this time. Kurama took a step back hoping to keep a good distance between them, just in case. Apparently, his nervousness was communicating itself to the plants around him, for they whispered urgently in his ears.
" What are you planning Kuronue?" Kurama asked wearily, while taking another step backwards.
"Is it not obvious, Rama?" Kuronue asked innocently, "if you won't come willingly, then I plan to take you by force." A hellish glare [2] was now upon the bat demon's face as he advanced on Kurama. At his words Kurama had pulled out a certain rose and was slipping into a defensive stance, while praying that he would not have to injure the first person he had loved. Hoping, wishing that it would not go that far. Unfortunately, it would go farther. A final smile glimmered across the demon's features as he blinked out of sight. Kurama's eyes widened as Kuronue materialized directly in front of him.
***
Hiei had kicked the covers off and was thrashing wildly. Someone continued to torture the person he loved, but he screams were different.deeper.more masculine. Then it dawned on him. It wasn't Yukina behind that wall. It was Kurama. Hiei swore and looked for his katana in the onslaught of darkness, but he was quickly lulled back into nothingness by a stray cool breeze.
***
"Kuronue! Unhand me!" [3] Kurama growled angrily as Kuronue's hand clamped over his wrist. Hard. Painfully hard. Kurama squirmed ineffectively to free himself as Kuronue's grip tightened. Kurama's eyes widened in pain as Kuronue kissed him again and forced the fox's right hand behind his back. Kurama could feel bruises forming around his mouth, and he pulled violently away.
Kuronue laughed and pushed the fox's arm harder. Kurama snarled in pain and punched upward with his left hand hoping to push Kuronue back a little. His fist was caught and also forced behind him. Kuronue's tongue traced a wet path up his cheek and into his ear. Kurama twitched and tried to twist further away. This attempt also met failure as Kuronue took both of Kurama's wrists in one of his hands.
Kuronue's hand traced lightly down Kurama's torso until it reached his solar plexus[4]. Kuronue's hand fisted in the fabric of Kurama's nightshirt and forcibly yanked a large portion of it away. The warm night air caressed his chest, and Kurama gasped as Kuronue applied his mouth to the sensitive skin there. Gently nibbling and caressing with his teeth and tongue, Kuronue worked his way down Kurama's stomach. He reached the top of Kurama's pajama pants, and used his teeth to tug at the drawstring holding them up.
~*~*~*~*~ (Because of graphic content, this scene was omitted. If you would like to read the unedited version of this chapter, please go to mediaminer.org and find me. I have the same penname there.)
*For those of you who chose not to read the unedited version, here is the gist of what happened:
Kurama and Kuronue start to get "busy", when Kurama remembers Hiei, and tells Kuronue to stop. Kurama tells Kuronue that he has chosen Hiei, and to go away, and never come back. This enrages Kuronue, and he violently rapes Kurama. Then scene ends, and takes us to here.
The fic is now being written by Hiten.
THANK YOU LYN!!
~*~*~*~*~
"I bet you didn't like that," Kuronue said and licked away the tears on Kurama's face, but we're not done yet."
Kuronue stood up and kicked Kurama's side.
"You hurt me, Kurama," he said. "I will return the favor, through your death."
Kurama couldn't respond. He felt as though he had been ripped in half, there was so much pain! He had done this many times as a youko, but his virgin ningen body had never had any sexual acts.
'Please, Hiei, help me,' he thought desperately.
Kuronue put on his and Kurama's clothes, and pulled a scythe from the straps on his back. He raised his favorite weapon into the air and flung it deep into Kurama's midsection.
Agony sped the fox as the metal was then yanked out of his stomach by the wire it was tied to. Kuronue caught the scythe with amazing precision and knelt down next to Kurama.
"Bloody deaths are my personal favorite[5], if you remember, sweetie," Kuronue whispered into Kurama's ear. He brought the scythe up to Kurama's face and cut a long stripe down over his left eyes. Kuronue grinned, and moved the scythe to his neck.
"HIEI!!" Kurama screamed. "AAAAAH------!!!"
***
"HELP!!"
Hiei slipped into a nightmare for the third time that night. The screams of his fox lover echoed loudly from behind the sheet of ice. He found his sword and gripped it tightly. Slashing wildly, he chopped away large shards of ice, and burned more of it off with his fire.
After nearly twenty minutes, hi managed to chop one piece of ice away, and behind it was another. But through the ice, he could see red spiked hair, with a figure with black hair hovering over him. Terror flooded through Hiei as he saw that Kurama was pinned on the ground, his opponent positioned between his knees.
Frantically, Hiei chopped away the final layer of ice and leaped to his lover's aid. He kicked the son of a bitch who was hurting his fox and stabbed him with his katana. His eyes narrowed when he saw the offender. Kuronue smirked at him before the dream dissolved into blackness.
*
Hiei shot up in bed. He glared in remembrance of the smug look on Kuronue's face in the dream.
"That son of a-"
He stopped when he noticed that he was alone in the bed.
"Kurama.....! SHIT!!"
Leaping out of bed. He threw on his cloak, grabbed his katana, and disappeared through the window.
***
Kuronue smiled sadly at the frame of his lover. The fox was gripping his neck tightly, desperate to stop the bleeding. Taking this as an opportunity, he kicked the fox, and watched as he fell to the ground. Blood sprayed on the grass as Kurama's hands fell from his throat. Kuronue kicked him again, hard in the chest.
"Gyaa!!" Kurama screamed and coughed as the snap of breaking bones rang out through the park. He raised his hands weakly to his neck and slowed the blood flow as best he could.
'It's useless to try and cease the blood flow. Eventually he will pass out,' Kuronue thought and rose into the air, hovering about the fallen fox. 'If I slit his wrists, it won't matter what he tries to do, the bleeding will be too much for him to stop.'
Satisfied with his new plan, he lowered himself to the ground and pulled out his last, clean scythe. He pulled Kurama into a sitting position, leaned up against his chest, and kissed the top of his red hair.
"Goodbye, my love," he whispered. He pulled Kurama's left wrist from his neck and slit the main artery.
"Aagh!" Kurama cried as the warm, red bloody poured from his wrist. His right arms lowered from his neck weakly to try and stop the blood flow, but once it left his neck, that too, began to spill blood. Tears mixed with the blood from numerous cuts, and fell down his face. With a sob, Kurama fell face-first to the ground in defeat.
Kuronue kneeled next to Kurama and lifted his right wrist. Kurama starred at the ground, his eyes dark and tear filled. He bit his lip to keep from sobbing, but his eyes portrayed his anguish perfectly.
"Kurama.." Kuronue started, "I wish this had never happened. If only I were stronger back then... This would never have happened. May you rest in peace, and go to paradise."
Kuronue lowered his scythe to Kurama wrist and pressed the metal blade gently again it.
"STOP IT YOU SON OF A BITCH!!" Hiei screamed and slashed Kuronue's chest with his sword.
Kuronue yelped and leaped away from Kurama. He gripped his chest and looked angrily at Hiei. "Damn you, Jaganshi."
"Kurama," Hiei asked and knelt next to the fallen fox. "Kurama, stay alive you stupid bastard!!"
Hiei lifted Kurama into his arms and peered into his face. Hiei squeezed Kurama's hand, and gasped, as it felt sticky and wet. He lifted his hand and found it covered in red blood -Kurama's blood, he realized in fury.
"SHIT!!" he said when he realized the extent of Kurama's injuries. He glared at where Kuronue had landed, only to find him gone. "Curse his damned soul!!"
Kurama looked with tear glazed eyes, and turned away as Hiei glared at him.
"DAMN IT!!" Hiei fumed and scooped up Kurama and into his arms. "Why the HELL did you leave the house?!?! Why didn't you wake me up?!!"
"I t-told him to stop.. I told him I loved you.but he wouldn't," Kurama choked. "I told him to stop."
Hiei ripped his sleeve in two and tied both ends around Kurama's neck and wrist. He starred as Kurama started sobbing.
"Don't you DARE die!!! DAMN YOU, YOU STUPID FOX!! Hiei screamed and sent floods of ki into his lover to heal the wounds. Kurama only continued to sob and buried his face in Hiei's shirt, occasionally muttering things like "I'm sorry" and "please don't hate me".
Finally, the bleeding stopped and Kurama's cuts closed. Hiei sighed in relief and pulled his fox closer in a firm hug. Kurama sobbed harder and wrapped his arms weakly around Hiei.
"Kurama," Hiei whispered, "It's alright, stop crying. Shut up. Everything is all right." [6]
Kurama didn't cease his sobs, but fell asleep as Hiei took them back home.

Hopefully I won't take too long to update for the next chapter. _ I read a new manga and it has stolen my attention from Hakusho. It's called Yami no Matsuei. IT'S AWESOME!!! It's actually a little better than Hakusho, and has a bunch of hotties in it!!! But don't worry. Even though updates will be slow, I will never forget to finish my beloved Yu Yu fics. ^_^
I hope you like the story thus far. PLEASE send me a good email for Lyn, since (even though it took her a while) she wrote this chapter by herself -no input or help from me. She is such an excellent writer!!
[1] Ok, I don't really know if Kuronue is a bat demon or not, but I'm writing this part, so that means that he gets to be a bat demon. He does have bat wings after all!
[2] Dedicated to Trogdor
[3] I've always wanted to make someone I was writhing about say, "unhand me" now I have! =^ ^
[4] *HITEN TAKES OVER NUMBER THING*: How did you think of that word? "Solar plexus"? 0_0 What a weird word.
[5] MINE TOO!!
[6] Not much for romance, huh?
I'm sorry the chapter is so short. I have a great idea for who will die in this story, and how. It's sad, but I like it. I hope you will too!! I don't know how much longer this fic will be, but I can guarantee at LEAST three more chapters. I have been re-inspired!!

"Bloody deaths are my personal favorite[5], if you remember, sweetie," Kuronue whispered into Kurama's ear. He brought the scythe up to Kurama's face and cut a long stripe down over his left eyes. Kuronue grinned, and moved the scythe to his neck.
"HIEI!!" Kurama screamed. "AAAAAH------!!!"

"HELP!!"
Hiei slipped into a nightmare for the third time that night. The screams of his fox lover echoed loudly from behind the sheet of ice. He found his sword and gripped it tightly. Slashing wildly, he chopped away large shards of ice, and burned more of it off with his fire.
After nearly twenty minutes, hi managed to chop one piece of ice away, and behind it was another. But through the ice, he could see red spiked hair, with a figure with black hair hovering over him. Terror flooded through Hiei as he saw that Kurama was pinned on the ground, his opponent positioned between his knees.
Frantically, Hiei chopped away the final layer of ice and leaped to his lover's aid. He kicked the son of a bitch who was hurting his fox and stabbed him with his katana. His eyes narrowed when he saw the offender. Kuronue smirked at him before the dream dissolved into blackness.

Hiei shot up in bed. He glared in remembrance of the smug look on Kuronue's face in the dream.
"That son of a-"
He stopped when he noticed that he was alone in the bed.
"Kurama.....! SHIT!!"
Leaping out of bed. He threw on his cloak, grabbed his katana, and disappeared through the window.
***
Kuronue smiled sadly at the frame of his lover. The fox was gripping his neck tightly, desperate to stop the bleeding. Taking this as an opportunity, he kicked the fox, and watched as he fell to the ground. Blood sprayed on the grass as Kurama's hands fell from his throat. Kuronue kicked him again, hard in the chest.
"Gyaa!!" Kurama screamed and coughed as the snap of breaking bones rang out through the park. He raised his hands weakly to his neck and slowed the blood flow as best he could.
'It's useless to try and cease the blood flow. Eventually he will pass out,' Kuronue thought and rose into the air, hovering about the fallen fox. 'If I slit his wrists, it won't matter what he tries to do, the bleeding will be too much for him to stop.'
Satisfied with his new plan, he lowered himself to the ground and pulled out his last, clean scythe. He pulled Kurama into a sitting position, leaned up against his chest, and kissed the top of his red hair.
"Goodbye, my love," he whispered. He pulled Kurama's left wrist from his neck and slit the main artery.
"Aagh!" Kurama cried as the warm, red bloody poured from his wrist. His right arms lowered from his neck weakly to try and stop the blood flow, but once it left his neck, that too, began to spill blood. Tears mixed with the blood from numerous cuts, and fell down his face. With a sob, Kurama fell face-first to the ground in defeat.
Kuronue kneeled next to Kurama and lifted his right wrist. Kurama starred at the ground, his eyes dark and tear filled. He bit his lip to keep from sobbing, but his eyes portrayed his anguish perfectly.
"Kurama.." Kuronue started, "I wish this had never happened. If only I were stronger back then... This would never have happened. May you rest in peace, and go to paradise."
Kuronue lowered his scythe to Kurama wrist and pressed the metal blade gently again it.
"STOP IT YOU SON OF A BITCH!!" Hiei screamed and slashed Kuronue's chest with his sword.
Kuronue yelped and leaped away from Kurama. He gripped his chest and looked angrily at Hiei. "Damn you, Jaganshi."
"Kurama," Hiei asked and knelt next to the fallen fox. "Kurama, stay alive you stupid bastard!!"
Hiei lifted Kurama into his arms and peered into his face. Hiei squeezed Kurama's hand, and gasped, as it felt sticky and wet. He lifted his hand and found it covered in red blood -Kurama's blood, he realized in fury.
"SHIT!!" he said when he realized the extent of Kurama's injuries. He glared at where Kuronue had landed, only to find him gone. "Curse his damned soul!!"
Kurama looked with tear glazed eyes, and turned away as Hiei glared at him.
"DAMN IT!!" Hiei fumed and scooped up Kurama and into his arms. "Why the HELL did you leave the house?!?! Why didn't you wake me up?!!"
"I t-told him to stop.. I told him I loved you.but he wouldn't," Kurama choked. "I told him to stop."
Hiei ripped his sleeve in two and tied both ends around Kurama's neck and wrist. He starred as Kurama started sobbing.
"Don't you DARE die!!! DAMN YOU, YOU STUPID FOX!! Hiei screamed and sent floods of ki into his lover to heal the wounds. Kurama only continued to sob and buried his face in Hiei's shirt, occasionally muttering things like "I'm sorry" and "please don't hate me".
Finally, the bleeding stopped and Kurama's cuts closed. Hiei sighed in relief and pulled his fox closer in a firm hug. Kurama sobbed harder and wrapped his arms weakly around Hiei.
"Kurama," Hiei whispered, "It's alright, stop crying. Shut up. Everything is all right." [6]
Kurama didn't cease his sobs, but fell asleep as Hiei took them back home.

Hopefully I won't take too long to update for the next chapter. _ I read a new manga and it has stolen my attention from Hakusho. It's called Yami no Matsuei. IT'S AWESOME!!! It's actually a little better than Hakusho, and has a bunch of hotties in it!!! But don't worry. Even though updates will be slow, I will never forget to finish my beloved Yu Yu fics. ^_^
I hope you like the story thus far. PLEASE send me a good email for Lyn, since (even though it took her a while) she wrote this chapter by herself -no input or help from me. She is such an excellent writer!!
[1] Ok, I don't really know if Kuronue is a bat demon or not, but I'm writing this part, so that means that he gets to be a bat demon. He does have bat wings after all!
[2] Dedicated to Trogdor
[3] I've always wanted to make someone I was writhing about say, "unhand me" now I have! =^ ^
[4] *HITEN TAKES OVER NUMBER THING*: How did you think of that word? "Solar plexus"? 0_0 What a weird word.
[5] MINE TOO!!
[6] Not much for romance, huh?
I'm sorry the chapter is so short. I have a great idea for who will die in this story, and how. It's sad, but I like it. I hope you will too!! I don't know how much longer this fic will be, but I can guarantee at LEAST three more chapters. I have been re-inspired!!
