Chapter 3 is up! Disclaimer- I don't own YYH and I also forgot to mention last chap that I don't own the names Eli, Koga, Showron, and Ryou-I got them from InuYasha, Cardcaptors and Yu-Gi-Oh!

Thank yous-

KaraKurama-Will Hiei help? I'm not telling...yet...

Caido...(I'm too lazy to type your whole pen name)- Glad you liked it. Hiei won't show up for a bit or so though.

NightBird- (FYI she signed up w/ a few days ago. Her name is Firegriffin75 now.) Anyways, glad you're enjoying it. If you want me to explain anything, just ask.

Blacklight52-Yup, Hiei/Botan fluff.-happy kitty face here ( It won't let me type it! Darn!)- Glad you liked the quote. This chap is longer, and now that I've updated, you can stop bugging me about it for a bit. (But you need to update soon too.)

"Ugh..." Kurama groaned and shook is head. "Where am I?"

Kurama tried to move and discovered he couldn't. Turning his head to the side, he saw that he was chained to a wall by his wrists and ankles and all he could really move was his head.

He also noticed that the room he was in was pure darkness, except for a small shaft of light coming in through a window on the far side of the room. Suddenly, there was a harsh laugh, indicating that Kurama was not the only one in the room.

Then, as if materializing out of thin air, two demons appeared. Both wore tunics similar to each other, white pants and shirt, and a black sash around the waist. One, the taller, wore a red tunic, while the other wore a dark blue one.

"Looks like he's woken up, eh, Eli?" said the one wearing the dark blue tunic.

"Shut up brother, we don't want him knowing who we are now, do we?" Eli (red tunic) mused, "However, he'll be dead soon, so I suppose it doesn't matter. And if he knows who we are, I'm sure he won't resist in providing us with the information we need. So Showron, tell him who we are."

Showron (blue tunic) looked at Kurama and smiled evilly. "We happen to be the Toguro brothers."

Kurama gasped. "But that's impossible! Kuwabara and Yusuke killed them at the Dark Tournament."

Eli laughed. "Who said that there were only two Toguro brothers? Now, if you wouldn't mind telling us where Yusuke Urameshi is, we will leave you in peace...for a bit." Both Eli and Showron laughed.

Kurama laughed as well, surprising the brothers. "If you think I'll tell you, then you're stupider than you look."

"I beg to differ. You're not really in a position to bargain," Eli said placing a hand on Kurama's arm, revealing sharp, steely claws.

"Oh I think I am," answered Kurama. He drop his head a bright glow surrounded him. There was a flash, and when it disappeared, Kurama lifted his head. His eyes were golden and his hair white, having completed the transformation into Yoko Kurama. Yoko closed his eyes and concentrated his energy. He opened them, expecting to find the brothers killed by his plants. He saw...nothing!? "What the...?" he groaned. Turning his head slightly, he looked at the chains that held him. For the first time, he noticed a soft green glow emanating from them.

"Stupid fox...did you think we didn't know about you're plant powers? Which are, of course, weak, compared to ours...but we weren't taking any chances," laughed Showron.

"So, back to our little discussion, Kurama. Would you tell us the location of Yusuke Urameshi?" said Eli.

"No, I would never betray my friends," growled Kurama, changing back to his human form.

"Are you sure?" questioned Eli, cutting into Kurama's arm through his uniform.

"Absolutely positive," answered Kurama through gritted teeth.

"Ah well, might as well leave you alone," said Eli, lifting up his hand, Kurama's blood dripping off his claws. "But don't worry, we'll be back later," he finished, grinning evilly. With that, he left the room, Showron trailing behind him, they slammed the door shut, and Kurama was alone. He turned to his arm, and saw it was not that large but still open and bloody. Summoning up his plant powers, he attempted to try to heal the wound a bit. He concentrated, but nothing happened. Those chains must restrict all of my powers, he thought.

"Damn..." he murmured.

He turned and stared out the window. It was now dark, and if he strained his neck a little, he could see a few stars twinkling against the night sky. He sighed and dropped his head. Where is everybody? Are they coming for me? Questions ran through his mind. He dropped his head and thought about what had happened this past year. It's changed my life, that's for sure. Let's see... I met Hiei, and Yusuke, as well as Botan and Kuwabara. After that we went to Maze Castle, our first official mission together. I oughta throw a party in honor of that. "That is, if I ever get out of here," he sighed. And then the whole thing with Yukina...

And then the most recent event, the Dark Tournament. Of course, they had met some new friends- Chu, Rinku, Touya, Jin, and a few others. But it had been a horrifying experience. They had all come too close to death at some time or other, but we came out okay in the end. And it made us stronger, thought Kurama.

Suddenly, he felt that he was not the only one in the room.

"Sorry to disturb your rest, but, seeing as you won't give us the proper information, we don't need you anymore," said a new voice, and Kurama had only enough time to inhale before he felt a sharp pain around his collarbone, and then wince as he felt blood seeping through his clothes.

"Who...are..." Kurama gasped out, be fore he fell into total blackness.

--------------------

"That must be it!" cried Yusuke, looking at a tall, mansion-like house that towered over the tree line in front of them.

"Urameshi... I got the oddest feeling...something's wrong with Kurama," said Kuwabara.

Yusuke nodded, "We better hurry then!" And the two took off sprinting towards the mansion.

Hope you all enjoyed it. Review please!!!!! Next chapter will take a bit, but first, I need your opinion. (answer this in a review) Should Yusuke fight the Air (Wind) Master, or the Earth master? Keep in mind, whichever one he doesn't fight, Kuwabara will fight. So there ya go, that was a preview for the next few chappies.
