Kurama walked to the window. A ghostly outline of a silver fox stamped its paws impatiently as it jumped down from the window sill. There was no paw prints left on the ground, and the fox wagged its nine bushy tails impatiently.
"I suppose you are my guide." Kurama reasoned to himself quietly, opening the window. The ghostly figure was sure antsy enough to be the guide.
The little fox gave a low bark, which was an obvious yes. Turning its back to Kurama, it started forward. Kurama perceived the apparition was heading toward a forest area that might of been in a large park down town.
Kurama jumped out the window, and followed after the fox. The fox's ears perked up hearing the faint sound of Kurama's landing, and it began to quicken its pace. Kurama stopped when the fox before him stopped. A strange mist enshrouded them, and the fox gave a low howl. Kurama remembered the howl as a sign not to be trouble.
Kurama relaxed, but didn't let down his guard. The scenery around him changed from houses to trees. He remembered this place. It was the place that bounty hunter had chased him and mortally wounded him. The little fox looked up at Kurama, its gold eyes locking with Kurama's green one.
Turning its gaze forward, it seemed to walk on a well hidden path. Kurama followed and then stopped, sensing a large energy nearby. It was hard to believe that such energy was concentrated in one spot. He went to look back down at his guide, but it had disappeared. He decided that he would continue the path he was going. He was already here, so he minds as well answer the distress call.
Kurama only walked about another mile before pausing at the scene before him.
A female fox demon, lie unconcious in a tangle of sacred tree branches. Her arms were bent behind her back, and were in thick silver chains, that held enchatments on them. She wore a long white flowing dress was made of silk, and it folded in several places. Red stains were visible on the dress. She had a thin band that wrapped loosly around her head, and secured a scarlet jewel in the center of her forehead. Her hair was long and at the roots it started out as a brownish red and at the very tips were black. Her fox ears were narrow and long, and her tail very bushy with a black tip. Her eyes were closed, and she had open cuts on her arms and Kurama assumed, some were on her legs as well.
He outstretched his hand in front of him and hit a barrior. He knew that the barrier was going to be there. In fact that was the cause of the enormous energy he sensed. Grasping a seed from his hair, he placed it against the barrier. Focusing his spirit energy in it, a spray of roses shattered the barrier.
He looked back at the female demon, and walked up to her. He took her into his arms, noticing that her weight was unhealthy, and her pulse beat slowly. His eyes widened, remembering whom she was.
Her name was Selenay. She was one of the few females in the theif guild. Though females in the guild were considered lower than the males, and usually forced to be mates, Selenay was the one most males avoided to taunt. When Kurama was Yoko, he had grown a fondness for her. He was one of very few to actually taunt Selenay. He would tell her, "Come across my territory again and I swear I'll make you mine." She would only roll her eyes, and walk off before saying over her shoulder, "I doubt you could even try to get me on the ground if you tried."
In fact those were the last words he had heard from her, before he left his real body to take the human vessel.
He decided to take her body to a nearby abandon cabin. It wasn't too far from the place she had been held captive at. He laid her on the bed, and left the house to collect herbs he might need to heal her.
