Kurama explained everything…well, he explained the fact he woke up like this and he didn't know who did it. He left the nightmare out because he knew his friends would be worried. They wouldn't admit it easily but they were scared when he had to fight Karasu, especially because for a moment they thought he was dead.

"Is there nothing else that happened?" asked Genkai, "Because you are very late, you shouldn't be so late if all that happened was your hair getting cut off."

"No, that is all that happened,… I overslept, that's why I am so late" Lied the redhead.

Genkai looked thoughtfull for a moment, then she said they should start training.

-------------------------

Kurama came at an open plain, he was cold. He looked around the ice plains and saw a figure sitting hunched over. When he got closer to it, he saw it was Hiei, his shoulders were shaking.

"Hiei?"

Hiei looked up, and turned his face towards Kurama

"You!…This is all your fault!"

"What?…what is my fault?"

Kurama started getting afraid, he had never seen Hiei so angry, the only time that got close was when Hiei thougth Yukina had been eaten.

"My sister is dead! Yukina is dead! And it's all your fault! If you hadn't lied this wouldn't have happened, we would have known Karasu was back."

Hiei put down the lifeless body of Yukina, his hands and coat were red with Yukina's blood. The firedemon attacked. Kurama had a lot of trouble avoiding him. The redhead refused to turn into the Yoko and he didn't want to attack his friend either. When he tried to talk some sense into the enraged youkai it had no affect what so ever. After a while Hiei slashed Kurama across the chest, it wasn't very deep, but still painful. Kurama tripped and immediatly he had a sword pressed against his throat.

"I'll kill you." Hissed Hiei

He raised his sword and the fox prepared for the final blow, which never came. He opened his eyes and saw Hiei, his eyes staring into the distant nothing. Kurama felt something warm and wet dripping onto his stommach, he looked and saw his stomach was completely red. It was Hiei's blood. He looked up and saw Karasu, the crow's eyes betrayed the fact that he was smirking.

"That was close wasn't it"

"… You killed him, and you killed Yukina…why?"

"It's a secret"

He held up four fingers

"I'll see you again."

With those words Karasu threw a bomb to the ground. When the smoke cleared he was gone. Leaving Kurama alone with the dead body of his best friend, and that of Yukina.

"…Why…"

---------------------------

Kurama paced around his room. These dreams were meaning something, but he couldn't figure out what. But he knew that he was going to tell his friends about these dreams. The guilt he felt this night, it was horrible. Another thing he didn't get was the fact that were Hiei had slashed him in his dream, he had a red stripe there.

In the morning he walked downstairs, he picked up the mail and got himself something to drink. To his suprise there was an envelope with nothing written on it between the mail.

Someone put it in the mailbox himself…but is it for me?

He decided he had to check if he wanted to know so he opened up the letter.

You're going to pay

You're going to suffer

Be afraid

You're going to die

Because you killed the black bird

Kurama's eyes widened in shock

"What?"
