Yusuke looked at this man. He blinked, rubbed his eyes, and shook his head.

Still Kurama.

How'd you....?

Kuwabara ran up beside him.

Hey, Urameshi, you look like you've seen a ghost! Said the taller boy.

Yusuke could only point foreword.

WHAT THE?!?!?!

The man didn't say anything. he only narrowed his dark green eyes carefully.

He looked almost exactly like the Kurama we all know and love. His hair was long and deep crimson. His eyes were dark green, and flickered with wisdom. He, however, was clad in the browns and greens of the forest. Around his waist was a long sword.

Hey, I thought you were on our side. Said Kuwabara rather dumbly.

Lanet said you were coming, Said the man in a cold, clear voice, The people that brought us here.

Kurama appeared on Yusukes left, he was staring hard at the man before him.

Kurama, you're right beside me, right? Asked Yusuke in a shaky voice.



Then... that's not you, right?



Just wanted to make sure. I didn't want to pound your butt into the dirt.

The man didn't say anything else. He seemed to be focused on Kurama. His hand went to his swords hilt.

You can tell me how we got here, or die. Said the Kurama-look-alike.

Hey, I don't know how you got here. Said Yusuke, holding up two hands, I only know that your pushing out energy.

The man said nothing.

You're killing people too.

A small smirk crossed the mans face. But he said nothing, he only drew his sword.

It was one to make even Hiei go weak in the knees. It was long, about four feet, and a deep silver. The blade Perfectly straight and it looked very sharp.

The man pointed his weapon at Yusuke.

If you're not going to answer my question, then you will be killed.

Hey, no worry on my part. As far as I'm concerned, you're the one who should be ready to die.

Suddenly, the man leapt right at Yusuke. He cut swiftly to the left that made Kurama jump back in a flip. Yusuke dodged the blade and tried to kick the mans side.

The stranger retaliated by rolling to the left and springing up. He cut hard at Yusuke, who dodged just in time to avoid getting cut. But his green jumpsuit didn't get out of the way, and it was ripped at the stomach.

Okay, you're gonna be sorry you did that! Yelled Yusuke. He pointed his index finger straight at his enemy and fired his Spirit Gun.

The man didn't have any time to react. He jumped up and just missed the Spirit Gun. But he couldn't avoid the second round.

The second bullet hit him hard in the chest. The man gave a light cry of pain and fell back, a open wound on his chest.

See. You shouldn't go picking fights you can't win. Said Yusuke, putting his hands in his pockets. Kuwabara walked up beside the detective.

Umm... Maybe we should uh... Go find the other energies, now.

Yusuke nodded then said, Right. But maybe this guy, At this he nodded his head at the fallen swordsman, Knows where we could find them.

He picked up the red-haired man by the scruff of the neck. The stranger opened his green eyes, and glared at Yusuke.

I'm not going to tell you anything about the others. Not when you're going to kill them. He said.

I only hurt you because you attacked me. We have a healer... If you tell me where your friends are, I promise you won't die. Answered Yusuke, in a softer, but still stern voice.

Kurama glanced from the man that looked like him to his friend. Was it just him, or had Yusuke taken on a slightly silver hue?

No, it wasn't Yusuke... It was...

Yusuke, get away from him!! Yelled Kurama. Yusuke turned his head just in time. The man jumped up, his wound gone, a silver light vanishing from his body. He swung his sword in the exact spot where Yusuke head had once been.

Getting to his feet and watching the man carefully, Yusuke readied himself for a Spirit Shotgun. The man would only expect one blast, not several.

Okay, buddy. You just lost your chance!! Time to die!!

I'm sorry, but I won't allow that. Said the man in his clear voice. He raised his left hand, palm flat out facing the three.

Kurama sensed it. And he knew he should of reacted quicker. But just as he moved, four beams of light flew out of the mans palm.

The beams became thin silver string. Kuwabara gave a yelp of suprise, and tried to turn and run, but one of the string caught his wrist and quickly encircled his body.

Yusuke would of gotten away, but the thread caught him around the ankle, and it did the same thing that Kuwabara's had.

Kurama jumped. He was the only one to escape, and the human lashed out with his Rose Whip. He aimed for the thread to let his friends go, but the threads, thin as they may be, held against the attack.

The man then raised his right hand and without taking his eyes off of Yusuke and Kuwabara, attacked Kurama.

The man yelled something in a strange language, a sort of chant:

Enteri Pryum Velvosso Rey.

A blast of silver light hit Kurama. The red-haired human felt a sort of floating sensation, like all his troubles being lifted away. He hit the ground three seconds later.

Yusuke struggled against his bonds, but the string would not give way.

It is futile. There is no one to help you now.

Oh yeah? Well, let me tell you, there's a three eyed demon back there. And he gets really pissed if someone hurts Kurama.

Kur... ama? WHAT THE HELL?! The man yelled, he gave the thread a pull. Yusuke felt it tighten around his chest, restricting his breath.

Hey, watch it! Called out Kuwabara, who was desperately trying to get free.

What's yer problem now?! Asked Yusuke loudly when he could breath again.

It is nothing that you should be concerned with. It is a common name.

By the way, what's your name?I failed to catch it. Asked Yusuke.

... Corrama. Corrama of the Silver shrine.

On the ground, the pleasant floating sensation for Kurama had disappeared. He shook his head, and raised his head.

Too late to do anything. Too late to attack...

Where are you, Hiei? Kurama thought.
