Love Can Over Come All Odds

Chapter 9. Broke Her Heart

4 years later after Rayven went screaming out of the house.

"Momma can I please go?!" Rayven begged with her famous puppy dog eyes.

"Ray, I said no!"

"Why not?" Ray whined.

"Because you have school." Iyudaka informed her daughter.

"Why? That's stupid! Why would you have school during The Dark Tournament?"

"I know dear . . ."

"Ha ha I get to go and you don't!" The 4 year old Romah chanted.

"Romah don't tease your sister." Daka scolded her brown haired green eyed son.

"Yeah or else I'll beat you up you little twerp!"

"You're just jealous that I get to go and you can't."

"I am not!"

"You are too!"

"Not!"

"To!"

"Not!"

"To!"

"Children, children that's enough!" Iyudaka yelled, trying to get her kids to stop bickering.

"Hey, Romah, your village called. They're missing their idiot!" (A/N: I got that off of Inuyasha. I thought it was hilarious!)

"Hey!"

"Rayven!" Daka said sternly.

"But Momma!"

"We'll see Rayven if I can get you out for a day or two. But right now it's time for school." *Ding Dong.* "See there's Somachi and Iyume."

"Alright Momma." The 8 year old Rayven went to the door and as her mother had said there was her 14 year old cousin Chitty (Somachi) son of Sesshomaru and 11 year old cousin Iyume. "Bye Momma. I'll see you after school."

"Bye Sweetie. Oh hey Rom why don't you go and play with Yashgo (Kagome and Inuyasha's 5 year old son.) today."

"Ok Momma. See you later." And Romah was out the door as well.

*Finally, maybe I can actually get the house clean today.*

"Hello Iyudaka." Came a deep voice from the shadows.

"Ahhh! Koga don't do that . . . please." Daka said a little disappointed that her 'lover' had returned.

"I'm sorry." Koga said wrapping his arms around Iyudaka. "About the other day . . ."

"No that's ok. You can't even see it any more. See!" Daka said showing Koga her wrists that a few days ago had been bruised and swollen.

"I see. So how about I make it up to you?" Koga said with a sly smile.

"Oh no, no It's ok. I . . . I have some work . . ." Iyudaka started to say at the same time Koga was advancing toward her. She tried to back away but she found a wall had decided to plant its self there without her looking.

"Nonsense, I insist." Koga picked Iyudaka up, flung her over his shoulder, and went up to 'their' bedroom.

*Why do I get these pains sometimes? Could it be . . . could it be possible that Iyu is hurt, that I can feel her pain? That we are in some way bonded?*

"Hiei are you alright." Kurama asked worried about his friend. "You spaced out."

"I'm fine." Hiei snapped.

Yusuke, Kuwabara, and the masked fighter were sleeping getting a good nights rest for tomorrows fight in The Dark Tournament. Kurama and Hiei just sat talking before they went to bed.

"Hiei?"

"Hmmm?"

"Were . . . were you . . . ever in love?" Kurama asked not sure if he should have asked Hiei that question.

"Why would you want to know?" Hiei said snapping again. He was beginning to be in a bad mood.

"Just curious."

"Were you?"

"It was a long time ago, when I was still in my Yoko form. She was beautiful. I knew I loved her from the moment I saw her."

//Flashback//

"Hey watch where your going, you stupid ass!" A red headed fox said after she had collided with Yoko Kurama.

"Maybe little girl *you* should watch where *your* going. You ran into me."

"Shikka sighed. "I'm sorry, it's just . . ." Shikka sighed again and Yoko could tell there was something wrong. "I'm Shikka."

"It's a pleasure to meet such a beauty." Shikka blushed as Yoko kissed her hand. "I'm Yoko Kurama. Now do you mind telling me what's bothering you?"

"I just lost my mother." Shikka said quietly with tears starting to came to her dark brown eyes.

"I'm so sorry, here." Yoko handed Shikka a white clot to dry her tears with. "But running from your problems doesn't solve them.

"Thanks, I know it's just hard." Shikka blew her nose. "Yoko Kurama wasn't it? That's too long. How about Yoko or Kura'? Yeah I like that, Kura'."

"Then I shall call you . . . Red." Shikka blushed again her face almost as red as her hair.

"SHIKKA!"

"That's my dad. I have to go but . . . I want to see you again."

"You will, Red, of that I'm sure."

"Bye Kura'!"

"Good bye . . . my lovely." Yoko said as she left but she was already to far gone and didn't hear him.

"So you're the one who broke that loud mouthed bitch's heart."

"What?! Did you say broke her heart? I broke her heart? I . . . she loved me?"

"To my knowledge she still does."

"She does? Wait how do you know?"

"I just do ok!" Hiei yelled with fire in his eyes. Kurama backed off and went to leave Hiei alone. *What have I done?! Did I too break the heart of the one I love? Please, Iyu, please forgive me.*
