Hey again sorry for the long wait but I finally know where to take the
story. I had four different ways it could turn out but now I know where to
take it. -happy dance-
Thank you to my reviewers- Buttered onions, Tye/dye Rin, Star Gazer, Ice Princess, Emily
Anyways on with the story
---
Damasu dropped the unconscious woman at the feet of the shadowed man. "There I have fulfilled my end of the bargain. Now it is your turn."
Bending one knee the large man lifted up the woman's face. After careful scrutiny he looked up with a satisfied grin. "You have fulfilled your end of the bargain. Yes you are allowed to go. Are you sure that you do not want to stay?"
Nodding curtly Damasu turned and ran out of the room, down the stairs, and out of the horrid place. He did not stop until he reached a tall oak tree. There he stopped and stared at the bright blue sky above him. What was the right course of action now?
---
Yuki stood in front of the cornered teen her crimson eyes aglow. "Where is Kanna? I heard that she ran out of class and then disappeared." Raising a fist she added, "You swore with your life that she would be safe. Remember?"
Yusuke looked at the girl. What could he say after all he did promise. Slowly he lowered his head. What could he say?
---
The large man wore a black cloak with a black hood. Smiling he stood on the rooftop of a nearby building. Below him was a crowded street corner. People hastily walked by.
There was a middle aged man wearing a suit coat. He adjusted his tie while holding a tan briefcase.
Then there was the older woman that rested upon a wooded cane. Sighing deeply she allowed her eyes to gaze into a store window. Thoughts of her once beauty flooded her mind and eyes. Shaking her head she slowly walked on.
Then there was the Goth looking group of teens. They sat beside the building smoking cigarettes and whistled at everyone that walked by, making sure to glare at those who happened to turn to look at them.
Then there was the young mother, she looked to be about 20, and her tiny girl. The woman stopped and sat on the purple bench at the bus stop. Sighing she grabbed the hyper tot and tried to keep her in her thin lap.
The little girl fidgeted one way then another. Right before her was a world full of wonder. How could anyone expect her to stay in one spot.
Smiling the mother shook her head lightly and handed her precious little girl a cookie. "What are we going to do with you Ana-Marie? Huh, you precious little girl?" Ana-Marie just smacked on her cookie in response.
Laughing the young mother pulled her daughter's long black hair back into a ponytail.
The large man smiled. 'Yes', he thought, 'This seems like a good enough place.' Closing his eyes he summoned all of the power that he could muster into his hands. Holding his hands up they lightly glowed blue. With one mighty scream he let out all of the power that he possibly could.
The hood fell off of the head from the sheer force that had been released. Grinning a tanned head looked up with dark black shades on.
Screams echoed, car alarms blared as did sirens. The entire block that had been there was now in shambles. Chaos ensued as everyone ran away from the rubble and the collapsing buildings.
Beneath the rubble of one collapsed building was a young mother and long black hair that had been tied back into a ponytail.

The bright red doors swung open and banged loudly against the walls as a blue headed girl frantically bounded into the room. Botan's amethyst eyes widened in shock as she unsuccessfully tried to skid to a stop.
"Look out," Botan shouted skidding across the conveniently waxed, smooth floor.
Robyn and Kuwabara turned just in time to see a blue haired girl sliding full speed towards them. Robyn jumped out of the way while Kuwabara blinked. 'Crash' went the two.
Yusuke stood staring at Robyn. 'Not much is known of her.' How could she had avoided the collision. There was not enough reaction time, well not with the way that she had moved. Yusuke had almost not had been able to keep up with her.
Dusting herself off Botan ran over to the trembling ruler. Crouching down she whispered in his ear.
Koenma glanced at her questionly. A mute nod was given in answer.
Almost as if in a daze Koenma walked over to his desk and sat in his chair placing his head within his hands. A soft sob was heard throughout the room and everyone froze. Never in their lives had they actually heard him- the Prince of the Reiki- cry.
Yuki took her eyes off of the cowering boy and stared at the ruler. With a gentleness that she had never been known to show before she placed a hand upon his shoulder.
Taking a deep breath Koenma closed his eyes and started to speak, "The same person who has Kanna has just killed 20 people, including a three year old girl and her mother."
Silence ensued as the words sunk in.
Without any interruptions he continued, "That person has also kidnapped another person too. He swore that if we stayed out of it no one would be injured."
Gentle brown eyes landed on Kurama. "I'm sorry Kurama but your mother was taken by Togoro."
Kurama stared back in total disbelief. Gently he shook his head. No it could not be true. Without another word he turned and ran out of the room and through a portal. His speed did not waver as he ran down the sidewalk and to his house. The same house that he had known his whole life.
Kurama still hoped that it was some kind of cruel joke. Maybe some huge prank that the guys had set up for his birthday.
Or that was until he went up to the front door. There the door lay open to the world. Kurama's heart sunk for he knew that if his mother was there it would not have been left opened. She always believed it was safest to keep the door locked from the dangers that loomed just outside.
With a heavy heart he walked to the front door. There on the floor lay three wilting flowers. Two lilies and a black rose. The flowers had been a birthday gift to her. Kurama had scoured the entire Makai to find the rose. It had become his mother's most prized flower.
Sitting on the door step, he gently stroked the velvety petals. Gold pulsed within his green orbs. Silver streaks mixed within his red hair as Kurama lightly kissed the rose.
Carefully Kurama went into the kitchen. Grabbing a blue vase he gently filled it with cold water and placed the flower in it. Kurama vowed to not let the flower or his mother die. Revenge would come upon Togoro with swift wings.
Pausing for a second, Kurama realized that he had ran out so fast that he did not know where she was being held. Taking a deep breath he slowly tried to calm the inner voices that were trying to tell him to kill everyone. Closing his eyes Kurama focused on having the calm Shuuichi take control again. The last thing he needed was to have Youko rush in and get everyone killed.
A crunch at the front door made Kurama turn. Slowly he crept towards the hall. Deep within his heart he hoped that his mother was there. What he saw made Kurama's heart stop.
