SAD KITSUNE LOVE
Author: Hello my fans! (I've always wanted to say that...) As promised and with some reassurance from Ms. Theater, I'm going to give you a preview of the sequel.... but... I can't, it might ruin the ending. I promise to give you one on the last chapter of the story though. But here's a summary: (Edited a bit so not to reveal anything...)
A demon priest, Lord Kenji, is slowly taking over the world. He is using these demons to do his bidding. Each demon has the Shikigami kanji on it's arm. Lord Kenji only wants one thing- to rid the universe of ningens, (humans.) He thinks that they pollute the earth. Since he consumes human souls, it's an easy task, plus the demons he hired does the same. The fate of the universe lies in the hands of a couple of spirit detectives.....

So wait for the preview folks! And just to warn you all, this story is gonna be mostly romance, so if you don't like romance too much...well.. You decide. So onward with the story!
Chapter 9: Little date
Mina watched as the boys on her team fell asleep one by one. She happily pretended to go to sleep to relieve any suspicion. Tonight was the night, she was going to meet Kurama in the forest. Finally, after about an hour, all of them were asleep. Or so she thought anyway. She snuck out of the hotel with ease.
'There... that wasn't so bad... if Togoru found out though...' She shivered. She slipped away under the cloak of night, and into the forest. Meanwhile, up on the roof, Karasu watched her slip away. 'Enjoy your time with him, for when I face him, he shall die and you will be mine.'
~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Mina came to a halt at the place she last met Kurama. With a sniff, she realized he wasn't there. Pushing out the bad thoughts in her mind, she sat on a rock. She waited. After half an hour, she became drowsy and impatient. She stood up to wake herself when a pair of strong hands grabbed her shoulders. She gasped and spun around to find herself face to face with Kurama.
His eyes glowed eerily in the dark as the light of the moon bounced off them, like a cats. Then again, hers did too, but he had scared her. "Sorry, just making sure it was you." He said softly. She breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me is all. I never heard you... When you grabbed me I thought..." She trailed off and shivered.
"Who'd you think I was? Togoru?" He asked, just as soft. It was like he didn't want anything to hear him, not even the wind. "No." She answered. "Then who?" She sighed. "I thought you were Karasu." He blinked. "Why him?" He asked. "It's.... it's just that he's been following me lately. He met me right before Togoru did on the trail and he just always seems to be around." She said. She hadn't forgotten the little incident on her way to the hotel.
"Does he like you?" The question caught her by surprise. After a moments thought, she replied, "Yeah, right... he'd like me over the millions of demons who love him..." She snorted. "Besides, he knows how much I hate him so..." She shrugged.
"Perhaps because you hate him, he's in love with you. Maybe he likes girls who play hard to get." Kurama said. Yet again she was caught unaware. "I doubt it...." She said, but inside she wasn't so sure. 'It sure would explain a hell of a lot. But... there is no way I'd go with him!' She told herself. She hated Togoru, she hated her team, someday, she'd rid herself of it all. That's all that there was to it.
She stared into his jade eyes. She loved the shade of green. It was so nice, like him. Maybe... one day... 'Stop it Mina! Idiot! Like he'd choose you. There are so many girls out there who would love him more than you can and you know that you'd probably get him killed because of Togoru!! But maybe he'd take the risk... maybe... oh SHUT UP! You know that this is futile!' She scolded herself mentally. She was being stupid.
There was no way for him to love her and that was final. As if he heard her thoughts he said, "You have pretty eyes. It goes well with your beautiful features." It was so soft that she barely heard him. She blushed, making him blush.
"Thank you." She whispered. He smiled gently. That made her blush even deeper. "You did well in your fight today." She said silently, not knowing what else to say. He shook it off. "I've done better." He muttered. She smiled softly. It startled him. 'For once she's not angry or sad. She looks so gentle and kind... that's the first time I've seen her smile a real smile. She really is beautiful...' He blushed at his thoughts.
When he blushed, she felt an urge to tell him how she felt. But as suddenly as it came, it went away. 'Besides... if I did tell him, I'd only be rejected. He'd laugh in my face and I'll never see him again. When he was Yoko he played with my feelings... so why wouldn't he now?! Wait a second.... Does that mean him being nice is only an act?!' The thought made her angry.
Her eyes flashed as her thoughts continued on, Kurama took a step back. "Why are you so angry?" He asked quietly. Her blood ran cold when she heard those words. 'Idiot! He's different now!' She thought annoyed with herself.
"If your thinking of Yoko, I'm sorry. He was afraid. He also did many things I would never do... not anymore anyway." Kurama reassured her. Suddenly she felt a rush of gratitude toward him. He always knew what was on her mind and how to comfort her. She hugged him unexpectedly. He didn't resist like last time. Instead, he hugged her back.
They stayed like that for a while. Finally they let go of each other. "Kurama... I.." He silenced her by putting a finger to her lips. She fell silent instantly, wondering what was going to happen. He cupped her chin and tilted her head upwards, so that he could gaze into her eyes. "Like I said, your beautiful. And you have good qualities. I want to tell you something but I'm afraid..." He cut off for a second, deep in thought.
"Kurama- but..." He cut her off. "Not anymore. I was afraid. I realize now that you probably feel the same way so here it is... straight out.... I like you a lot. And I think it's more than that... I know I've only known you for a while but.... I love you." He took a deep breath.
Finally she put her words in. "I love you too. I have been since I first met you." She whispered. She wasn't able to say anything more however, for he pressed his lips against hers. The kiss was soft, but to her special all the same.
When the kissed ended, Mina was left breathless. It hadn't been her first, (Yoko Kurama... he must of been quite a charmer...) but since she loved him more than anything, it dazed her.
"Wow..." She breathed. She fell back, and ended up leaning against a tree. His effect on her was really strong. "Are you alright?" Kurama asked, sounding just as breathless.
"Just fine...." She answered. A couple of moments passed. Neither said a word. Mina wasn't sure what to do and either was Kurama. Then she took a step towards him. "Sorry... you took me by surprise." She said. Her head was spinning with questions.
'Does this mean we'll be together forever? Or does this mean that he'll die early because of Karasu or Togoru?' Those were some of her thoughts. "Not at all... I Surprised myself." Kurama said, breaking her thoughts. "Kurama... I'm not too sure about this. I mean our team leaders... and if Togoru or Karasu found out... you'll probably die... or... worse..." She said, hesitantly. She hated to break the happiness.
But Kurama didn't seemed worried. "It'll be okay... everything will be alright." He said, pulling her into his arms. She didn't resist. He settled her with her head on his chest and with one arm around her waist and the other over her shoulders. He rested his chin on her head.
She could feel herself falling asleep... he was so warm... he'd protect her... no harm will come to her... Togoru wouldn't find them together... either would Karasu. No she was safe... Then she snapped back to reality. "It's getting early... I should go back... your team will get suspicious too... so.." she stopped. She hated this.
She turned around in his arms to face him. "I know..." He said. His arms loosened. "Well..." She paused... she didn't know what to say. "Can we meet again?" She said after a moment. "Of course. Tomorrow? Same time?" He asked. "Yeah." She said. They broke apart. "Well... bye." she stood on her tip toes to kiss him lightly, then they left each other for the night... er.. day.
Author: Well... I can't think of anything. So the next chapter won't come out for a while. Send me your ideas!! Anything is welcome by the way and correct me if I'm wrong on something or someone's name.. Okay? Also.... sorry that this chapter took soo long... I had a lot of school work. My science teacher is making us memorize the periodic table of elements and for Home Ec. I have to do some other crazy stuff.. Man.. Schools tough... Anyway, Sayranora! Until next chapter.
