A/N: POV of Hiei. This is getting good and the plot hasn't even come out yet! So no, for those who need to know, this isn't just a kill Kurama fic. the Urameshi team drew straws and Kurama's ended up with the shortest, how convenient...
Chapter Seven
Too Late
We had all gone our separate ways in the Makai realm. Kuwabara went to the Cemetery, Yusuke went to the Prison and I traveled to the Cathedral. We all had the walkie-talkies on, when I last saw Kuwabara he was holding his like it was his only lifeline; it was quite amusing.
I walked into the courtyard of the Cathedral; nothing grew here, not even weeds, everything was dead. "Kurama would hate this place," I mumbled to myself.
I stealthily tiptoed over to the door. It was big, at least the hole where the door once was, so I looked in, there was no harm, as long as I was quiet. Cobwebs and dust covered the floor and walls, everything looked like it was in a mist. I walked in only to jump back out when I couldn't breathe, the dust was way to thick, I had to figure out another way to get in there.
I looked for the nearest window, but before I could find one Yusuke's voice came over the walkie-talkie, "Hey, guys. I found him, get over here quick, but...WHAT THE...?" The voice died out there.
I ran as quickly as I could, even you would have been surprised, I thought remembering Kurama. In less the ten minutes I made it to the entrance of the prison. Yusuke was there in the front, but he was fighting someone..."Kurama!" I almost screamed.
"Hiei! Help me!" Yusuke yelled back at me. He was trying to block Kurama's blows from his Rose Whip.
I froze; what could I have done? My love was fighting a person that I would consider a friend, but I had to do something. I charged Kurama, unsheathing my sword. I couldn't hurt him, but I could knock him out.
I was going to try and hit him with the blunt side of my sword, no matter how hard it would be. But as I swung my sword I opened my Jagan eye, maybe, as a last resort, I could penetrate his mind and figure out what was going on...
It was very difficult trying to open up his mind but by the third stroke of my sword I could read his thoughts.
'Kill me,' he thought. 'She's controlling me, kill me now before I hurt you or Yusuke!'
'I can't kill you, my fox,' I thought back to him. 'Who is she, maybe we can stop her before she does any more harm.'
'Her name is Ryokha, and if she is anywhere it would be inside there, that hellish priso-agh!' I hadn't realized our fight was still continuing, nor did I realize that I had knocked him out. It was then that I saw the multiple wounds along his face and hands. I knelt down to his limp figure to see just how bad and how many wounds there were. I rolled up part of his sleeve to see many more gashes like those on his hands. Kuwabara then showed up.
"Better late then never," Yusuke remarked.
"Hey, I'm here at least," Kuwabara seemed not to see me on the ground. I had quickly flung myself into a pile of rubble that once belonged to the prison. "At least I came, not like shortie."
"What do you mean, he was just here...Where did he go?!" Yusuke almost screamed. He had turned around hoping to see me, but I had better things to do then be slowed down by these two.
"Come in, Yusuke. Yusuke? Can you hear me?" the walkie-talkie stated in Koenma's voice.
"Yeah, yeah I can hear you, what do you need?"
"Have you found Kurama yet?"
"Yeah, we found him, but he's in pretty bad shape."
"Then bring him back here so we can see just how badly he's hurt. Over and out," the static on the walkie-talkie stopped.
"Hiei will probably meet us there, we need to get going," Yusuke said. Yusuke bent down and picked up my fox and carried him away from the prison, leaving its horrid memory behind with it, but I couldn't.
I looked up at the prison and stepped out of the rubble. "I'm coming for you, Ryokha, and you will pay."
