Rain and Fire
Chapter 6 : The Hunters And The Hunted
-------------
Everyone watched Sesshoumaru expectantly, and he sighed.
"Youko Kurama, you're friends with Yakumo, are you not?" he asked, his voice not showing his frustration.
The fox raised an eyebrow. "Me and that low life, back-stabbing bastard, friends? Don't make me laugh."
Hiei narrowed his eyes at him. "You've got room to talk."
"Still, you both have a sort of…partnership, no?" the lord continued, getting more annoyed that the kitsune wasn't being very cooperative.
"I guess you could say that. Why?"
A smirk formed on the inu-youkai's lips, a rare occurrence for him. "That's how you're going to help us."
Rain's face grew dark, and she growled. "Sesshoumaru, don't even let those words come out of your mouth. I'm not traveling with this…this bastard!"
Rin looked over at her sister. "Rain-chan? What do you mean?"
The girl opened her mouth to say that that was the kitsune who had slaughtered their family, but suddenly caught herself.
Rin…doesn't remember…
She sighed, and realized that if she didn't, then she wouldn't be the one to remind her of their past.
"Never mind. But he knows what I mean." Rain narrowed her eyes at Youko. "He know exactly what I mean."
Sesshoumaru shook his head. "It's the only way. We can't use you - he'll only kill you, which would entirely defeat the purpose of bringing you along."
"Why are you bringing me along?" she snapped. "I never asked for help. I never even wanted to return to that damned place."
"You're coming with us because if we leave you alone, the Hunters will find you." Hiei said.
She turned to him. "Hunters?"
"Demons who can track anything. They will either kill the one they are seeking, or bring them to whomever employed them. And in your case, that would be Yakumo."
The koorime narrowed his eyes at his friend. "Which means, Sesshoumaru, that time is of the essence."
He nodded. "So, Youko, will you help us?"
"Of course he will!" Aura exclaimed, before her brother could say a word.
"Damn it, Aura! Stop answering for me!" he growled.
Kuronue snaked his arm around the silver-haired girl's waist, and pulled her protectively against his chest.
"Hey, back off, Kurama."
Huo chuckled, and said in his usual calm voice, "You two seem to fight like a married couple."
Youko flicked him off. "Bite me, horse boy."
Huo was unaffected. He just gave another warm smile.
Youko turned back to Sesshoumaru. "What's in it for me?"
"You'll get to keep your life, for one thing." Hiei said dangerously.
"I'm not scared of you, little koorime." The gingitsune said, putting a hand on his hip.
"I'll give you some of my territory." Sesshoumaru said, interrupting the two demons.
This seemed to surprise the fox. "Your territory? How much?"
"Enough." was the simple reply.
Youko looked thoughtful for a minute, before turning his golden gaze back to Sesshoumaru.
"You've got a deal. I'll help you get into Yakumo's."
Rain threw her hands into the air. "You've got to be kidding me! Didn't you hear what I said? I refuse to travel with him!"
Sesshoumaru looked over at her. "You don't have a choice in the matter."
She growled, and turned on her heel. "Then I'm leaving!"
She started walking back towards the forest, and Rin and Kouga ran after her. The latter grabbed her by her shoulders and spun her to face him. She narrowed her eyes.
"Rain, you can't go off by yourself! I don't know why you hate that damn fox so much, but please, you'll get hurt if you leave. Those Hunter things that the baka koorime was talking about will get you!" he exclaimed.
"Rain-chan! Kouga-san's right!" her sister agreed.
Rain narrowed her eyes at Kouga, and said in a dangerously calm voice, "Get your hands off me right now. I have my reasons for hating that bastard, and I can handle a few demons. Living in constant fear for my life hasn't left me defenseless."
Youko's ears suddenly perked up, and he raised his head, delicately sniffing the air.
He opened his eyes and looked over at Aura. "Oi, Aura, you smell that?"
She too lifted her head and sniffed the air, but then coughed and covered her nose. "Yuck! What's that stench? Youko, did you let one rip?"
He narrowed his eyes at her. "Baka! It's a demon scent!"
Hiei placed his hand on the hilt of his katana. "I believe we have some company."
"I can't see them, but I can certainly smell them." Sesshoumaru said.
Rin suddenly gasped and stepped away from Rain, trembling.
Kouga and Rain gave her a confused look, but one glance at the forest behind them told why she was so frightened.
A youkai stood there, towering over the both of them like the mountains surrounded them. It was at least three times their height, and resembled some sort of ogre. Ugly, matted yellow hair covered its balding blue head, and its blood red eyes were locked on Rain.
It carried a huge club, covered in large, bloody spikes. But its weapon wasn't nearly as menacing as its teeth. Rotting yellow and black teeth with the flesh of its last victim still clinging to them.
"That's…not good…" Kouga said.
The creature let out a roar, and swung the club at the two, but Kouga put himself in front of the girl before she could be hit. They both went flying to the right and hit the ground, skidding a good ten feet before finally coming to a halt.
Rin screamed, and Hiei cursed.
He drew his katana, and took off towards the youkai with the intent of making it suffer the most pain that it was capable of feeling. Youko followed after with his rosewhip, and Kuronue did as well.
Sesshoumaru bolted forward, transforming into his full dog form to give himself even more leverage against the disgusting demon.
Huo, on the other hand, ran towards Rin, scooping her up and getting her away from the fierce battle. He then jumped over to where Aura was, handing the vixen the trembling brunette.
"Take care of her while I go get the other girl and the wolf." he said.
"R-Right." she said, nodding. "I'll get this one to the cave." She turned and dashed up the cliff, to the safety of the rocky lair.
Rain struggled to get up off of Kouga, and she gasped when she saw the small pool of blood forming beneath him.
"Kouga!" she exclaimed.
His eyes were squeezed shut, and he was gritting his teeth at the terrible pain that she imagined he must be feeling.
Angry tears ran down her cheeks. "You idiot! Why did you do that for me? That blow wasn't meant for you!"
Huo reached them then, quickly kneeling beside the fallen wolf and placing his hands over his chest.
The horse youkai's hands started to glow with a faint blue light, and Kouga's eyes snapped open.
Huo sat there for a second, his hands suspended over the young wolf, his face one of deep concentration. Finally, he fell back with a gasp, a cold sweat on his brow.
"Kouga!" Rain exclaimed, leaning over him.
He smiled weakly up at her. "Hey…you okay?"
She nodded, wiping fiercely at a lone tear that had run down her cheek. "Baka! You shouldn't have done that for me!"
"You would've…gotten hurt…" he suddenly went limp, a sign that he was unconscious.
She hugged him to herself, and looked over at Huo.
"Are you alright?"
He nodded. "I'm fine."
But it was beginning to look like the others were not going to be fine. Sesshoumaru, Kuronue, Hiei and Youko had been having difficulty holding their own against just one of these massive youkai, and while Huo was attending to Rain and Kouga, three more of the horrific blue demons had joined the first.
Each took their own demon, and was getting horribly beaten.
Youko slashed wildly at his oni, and struggled to see it. He had gotten hit in the head, and now one of his eyes was practically glued shut by the blood flowing over it.
He slashed with his whip, but each time the thorny vine made contact with the demon's skin, a sound like metal against metal would result, and nothing more.
"Damn it!!" he yelled. "These youkai have hides like armor!"
Hiei cursed loudly when the demon broke his katana as though it were a twig.
Is this the strength of the Hunters…? I never expected them to be this powerful…
Hiei!
The koorime immediately recognized Sesshoumaru's telepathic voice, something the demon lord could only use in his dog form.
"What?" he spat, back flipping to avoid a blow from the Hunter's club.
You may have to use your dragon.
"Are you crazy?! That could very well destroy us all!" he shouted.
Unfortunately, that may be our only choice…
Kuronue cried out when he too was struck with the club while in mid-air, and a searing hot pain tore through his back. He could tell that at least one of his wings was broken, not only from the pain, but from the sickening crunch it made upon impact.
Hiei realized that he had no other choice, and jumped away from the Hunter in order to have enough space to summon the Makai dragons.
"Everybody, get back!" he called, his arm already glowing with the dark purple flames.
To Hiei, everything went by in slow motion, yet it also seemed to happen in just a split second at the same time.
He thrust his arm out in front of him, and the familiar burning feeling consumed his body. The huge, flaming, black and violet dragons came forth, each flying towards one of the Hunters.
He couldn't see anything past the blaze of violet, but he could certainly hear the screams of the demons.
A smirk formed on his usually stone face, but it was quickly replaced by pure shock and dread at the next sound he heard.
The cliff…crumbling.
"No." he breathed.
He heard another scream, and he was pretty sure that it was Rain. His last thought was of the ebony-haired girl, and whether or not she was alright.
Then, the pitch black darkness swallowed him up.

Author's Notes: MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!! I'M EVIIIIIIIL!!!!!!
Anyways, I got this chapter typed up in record time!! Woohoo!!!! [REALLY HUGE GRIN]
In case you're wondering, I'm really happy! I just got the first DVD of Wolf's Rain! In fact, the only episodes that I haven't seen of that series are the first two and the ones they haven't shown yet on Cartoon Network.
I have buttloads of new story ideas, and I'll tell you about them after I reply to the reviews. Keep in mind: THESE ARE JUST IDEAS!!!! You'll also have to tell me which ones you like the best, and I'll write those when I'm done with the others.
.
Oh, and this is IMPORTANT: I'd like your opinion on ALL couples. What kinds of pairings would you like to see? I'm open to anything except for yaoi or yuri. Sorry, in case you wanted that…for any reason. Oh, and so far, it looks like Sesshoumaru and Rin will be a couple.
.
Oh, and did anyone else notice that in all of my stories, Kuronue gets his wings injured in some way? It's a bad habit, but I figure that it's one of the most painful injuries that I can give him...
.
Kaija Katake: I liked your story! I was happy to review.
Chibi Lady: I certainly feel stupid. I was fixing the site, and I organized the profiles by series, putting a 'kokoro' in front of the file name, and I forgot to change the links. LOL. Sorry! As for the interviews, I, um, accidently deleted them. Hehehehe...sorry! I have them saved on a back-up disk, but that's in a box somewhere...another downfall of moving. I'll get them up again as soon as I find that disk. And now is your chance to voice your opinion 'officially' on who Rain should go with, etc.
Demon Majick: LOL! Glad you liked it!
Dark Vixen Nisha: Okay. Any other pairings you'd like to see?
slave2anime: LOL. Any other pairings, then?
crimson7319: I'll take the 'funny (knowing you)' as a compliment! I love doing comedies, but I'm trying to keep this one serious. [LuckyKoorime: Pokes her] Okay...maybe relatively serious.
Coodle: Nobody wants Sess/Rin when Rin is practically still in her diapers!! LOL.
Story Weaver1: After seeing him in his dog form (she probably will, eventually), I may have her comment on him being fluffy, which would result in her calling him Fluffy-chan.
Seiyo-san: Glad you liked it!
TPM-girl: I'm freakishly paranoid about people losing interest in / not liking my stories. It's just me.

.
????

.
.
That's all that my weary fingers can type up right now, but trust me, there are at least two more. And I'm coming up with more every day!! Remember (here comes the threat): I will NOT update this fic until I get at LEAST three votes!! Oh, and I just thought about this, but I'm also going to be posting the LAST (I mean last this time) story of the Kokoro No Kaitou series when I'm done with this, so whatever story you vote for will be coming along after I'm a good way into that story. Also, these will probably all be posted under the pen name Kitsune In A Bubble.
.
.
You have to vote on pairings and stories, get it? Got it? Good! LOL. I'm just a tad crazy, I swear!
