The Demon Enchantresses
Chapter Nine
Kuwabara had never seemed happier. Neither had Hiei or Yusuke. They were happier than ever because they had found loves for themselves. But Kurama just watched the three couples from a distance. He didn't want to be left out, but he knew they would soon do something he couldn't be a part of. At least, not until he found a love of his own. But that was becoming a problem. It had been a couple weeks since he had been traumatized by seeing Yusuke and Yoshiko sharing their ecstasy. Kusha had been involved in a lot more things, which made her happy, and she and Kuwabara had been with the group a lot more. But there was something that Kurama felt about Kusha that told him she wasn't what she seemed.
Was she a demon? He had asked himself that, but there was no demon presence when she was around. But there was just something there. He was surprised Kuwabara hadn't realized it. But maybe his love for her defied all his senses.
Kurama sighed and walked back to the house. He would just be the same, if not a bit more depressed. He wanted someone to love. He needed a female there for him, when he got injured in a fight or something. He needed a female there for him that would make his life easier. He always had to do everything for his friends. Buy the food, clean the house, cook the meals... He was becoming sick of it. He thought about playing sick one day, but he thought better of it. The girls had offered to help, and did, but the guys were soon in there and swept them off their feet. Yoshiko was a bit stubborn, though. One time when Yusuke came in, she told him, "Touch me, Yusuke, and I'll turn this vacuum to attack you."
Kurama thought she meant it, but after about a five minute verbal fight, she was gone with Yusuke. Hiei was just too fast for Hannah to realize it, but he thought that she had protested several times after she was in her shared room. She never came back out, though.
Kusha... Kuwabara had picked her up and, since he was too strong for her to fight him, she had to go where he made her. Kurama kept getting a weird, unknown vibe from Kusha. No one else seemed to feel it, though. Maybe it was just a loneliness vibe. But it was coming directly from Kusha, so it couldn't be.
When Kurama got into the house, he looked at the calendar. Ah, yes, he thought. A full moon in the next two days. Maybe that's why I'm acting so strange. He had a feeling it wasn't, but he was glad to have something to blame his actions on. This would also be the first full moon since Yusuke and Yoshiko, the first couple, had been together. If for sure there was something strange about the girls, maybe the full moon would have an effect on them...
"Kusha, come on!" Yoshiko encouraged. They were climbing a tree for training. Yoshiko and Hannah took Kusha for her first session. They would help her get stronger, and that way she could put up with that big bozo Kuwabara.
Kusha was only just nearing the first branch. Hannah had gone ahead to about the fifth, and Yoshiko was on the second. They knew Kusha had to push herself, and that's why they decided to go easy. After all, it is only her first training session.
"Kusha, you have to push yourself," Hannah said from above. "You have to work up your power and use it."
"I'm trying!" Kusha cried. "This is only my first time, you know!"
"Yeah, and our first times we were not much better," Yoshiko said, more to Hannah than Kusha.
"You guys just go on ahead. I'll eventually make it to the top," Kusha said.
"Nah-ah. We stay here and help you. You need encouragement, strength, and friends here to help you get all the way up there. And back down, for that matter. But whether or not you can make it to the first branch..." Yoshiko trailed off.
"We did make it to the first branch after about an hour, Yoshiko. Remember?" Hannah said.
"Well, yeah, but I want her to beat our time. And we were even smaller then. We've already been trying to get her up to the first branch for about, um..." She looked at the sun and where it was in the sky. "Oh, for about a half hour already."
Kusha was shocked. It didn't seem like a half hour. Less, it did. "How long are we going to try?" she asked.
"Until you get it, which should be less than an hour. You're almost there, Kusha!" Yoshiko said. Hannah moved up another branch.
Kusha reached up. Just another inch, she thought. She stepped up on a piece of bark that was sticking out. It broke from under her weight, and she almost lost her grip entirely.
"Kusha!" Hannah cried, concerned that her friend would fall. But when she looked closer, the bark had given her just enough of a boost before it broke that Kusha was hanging on to the first branch.
Yoshiko giggled. "I told you you'd make it." She moved up a branch. "Now go for the second one. It should be easier."
Kusha got herself on the first branch, then went after the second. She made it in a matter of minutes. They kept going until all three were at the top of the tree.
"Good thing this tree is quite wide," Kusha said. "I'm not sure how well one of those over there would be able to hold all three of us." She indicated smaller trees not far away.
"Why do you think we chose the widest?" Hannah said. It wasn't really a question.
"Oh," Kusha said.
"Ooo, I got an idea!" Yoshiko said.
"What?" Hannah and Kusha said in unison.
"Why don't we," Yoshiko said, "play a little trick or two on the boys." She had a grin on her face, one that said she was scheming.
"What do you have in mind?" Hannah asked.
"Well, for starters..." she trailed off and whispered it to the girls.
The girls jumped out of the tree, and climbed it, jumped down, climbed it again, and repeated this process until Kusha got the hang of it. Then, they snuck up on the boys. They were very quiet, and not one of the boys sensed them.
Kusha jumped up and grabbed Kuwabara's ears and pulled them really hard, Hannah jumped on Hiei, wrapping her legs around his neck, and covered his eyes, while Yoshiko grabbed Yusuke's manhood and said, "It's so long!" Yusuke got pissed, really pissed.
The girls then jumped off their guy and ran like hell to the tree and jumped up and disappeared into the branches. The guys, needless to say, were really pissed—especially Yusuke—and they ran after the girls. They followed them to the tree, yelling, "Get your asses down here!"
Hannah gave a pretend cry of surprise and "fell" out of the tree, "hitting" some branches on the way. As she "hit" the last branch down, she cried out one more time and fell towards the ground, motionless.
Hiei yelled, "Hannah!" and caught her just before she hit the ground. "Yusuke, it's all your fault!"
"How's it my fault?" Yusuke asked, taking defense for himself and still pissed.
"I don't know, it just is."
"Right, that makes a lot of sense, Hiei." He had a blank look on his face.
Hannah opened her eyes, smirking, and threw a pinecone at Hiei's face and jumped back up into the tree, giggling and yelling, "Suckers!" Once she was back up in the tree, all three threw pinecones down and yelled insults to the guys.
Kuwabara said, "Ow! What do we--ow!—do? Ow!"
"Chuck some pinecones back!" Yusuke yelled, and chucked pinecones back up into the tree.
Yoshiko's voice was overheard by the yelling. "Ha! Yusuke, you really think the pinecones will hit us while we're in the tree? And you call that aim?" She giggled.
Hiei said, "I'll show you aim!" and he threw a pinecone, hitting Yoshiko square in the face. She let out a cry of surprise and almost fall off her branch.
"Stupid, he's got a jagan eye! He can see through anything!" Hannah cried.
"You mean he can see through my clothes?!" Yoshiko yelled.
"Uh, well, yeah...if he wanted to...oh shit!"
Hiei turned red. The other two guys laughed at him.
Yusuke said, "What I wouldn't give for one of them jagan eyes!"
Kuwabara snickered and Yoshiko yelled down, "Yusuke, you pervert! I'll come down there and kick your stupid ass!" She chucked a pinecone at him and hit his manhood.
The girls giggled and yelled, "You go, Yoshiko!" She smiled, while Kuwabara and Hiei laughed at Yusuke.
After about another hour or two, the girls got tired of standing on a branch and chucking pinecones. They jumped down, and they were covered in tree sap.
Hannah said, "Ew! I'm covered in tree sap! I need to take a bath now!"
"Let me help you, Hannah," Hiei said, wickedly.
"You pervert, Hiei!" Hannah said, smacking him. Hiei hit the ground with a dull thud.
Kuwabara poked him and said, "I think he's dead." Another few pokes.
"Quit touching me!" Hiei yelled.
"Kusha," Yoshiko said, "Are you sure that dimwit's the right guy for you? I mean, you know, touching Hiei and everything, come on! Get a guy that likes girls."
Kusha blushed only slightly, but she caught on to Yoshiko's sarcasm. Everyone laughed and teased Kuwabara.
"Yoshiko, I'll get you for that!" Kuwabara yelled and grabbed a pinecone and ran with it in his hand and almost hit Yoshiko, had she not been watching him the whole time.
They were all laughing, and they decided to walk home. Yusuke carried Yoshiko, Hiei just walked next to Hannah, keeping a close eye on her, and Kuwabara let Kusha take his arm. They walked home like that, and when they got home, they were all still laughing and all shared the fire burning inside them with their lover...
Kurama heard them come in. He knew they would do what they always did. Every night, he felt even more alone. He was beginning to feel depressed that he would go out all the time and not find a single girl would love him. He didn't know how much longer it would be before he would just up and leave. He decided to try to get up early tomorrow and do something that would exhaust him so he could fall asleep early and not have to hear the pleasures in the other three rooms.
He turned on his side, and tried to fall into asleep. Only after the sounds of joy had stopped, had he been able to fall asleep. But something kept him up. He didn't know what. He turned on his other side and looked out the window. Yes, the full moon will be here soon, he thought. There was just a strange vibe coming from the girls. Kusha's wasn't as strong today, but he'd definitely felt it. Yoshiko's and Hannah's had been stronger than before. Kurama wondered if it had anything to do with moon, or if it was just a coincidence.
Finally, he fell into a blissful sleep. But he dreamed. And it was a dream he would not remember when he awoke, but he would remember when it came true...
