Author: You guys sure are a lovable bunch aren't ya? Geeze, Mai, you sure did go over board. I mean, I'm DEFIANTLY no slut, I haven't even dated yet because of my studies. IYA, and using the F*** word every other word, my my my, that just wont do, not at all. *shakes head* anyone else dare to do that? *silence* good, because Mai is in trouble.
Chapter 15: Mina's remorse and her decision
Mina trudged down the path to her hotel. By now, she knew, the Urameshi teamed have heard of what happened and so has the Togoru team. Damn, that sucks. She wished she could take last night away, wished it never had happened.
Right when she got to the hotel, Karasu met her. He half-smiled at her then put an arm about her shoulders. Mina wanted to shake it off, but couldn't fear she would get the whole team mad. Still, her thoughts kept returning to Kurama. She wanted to apologize, but she knew that they would never meet again, not until the last fight.
That was until she was summoned to the lounge. Her and Karasu went into the place together, not speaking. There Togoru sat on a chair, waiting for them and Bui. His brother was no where in sight. Not that it mattered to her, she hated all of them and the older brother was just another creep.
When they were all settled, he spoke. "Genkai, she is to die soon." He said to them calmly. Karasu nodded, seemingly not interested. Mina on the other hand, was devastated. 'What?! The old lady has to die?! But why?' She thought. Togoru's eyes turned on her, like he knew what she was thinking. "That lady, she was a team mate of mine long ago. We fell in love with each other long ago. That is the past however, it seems that there is other love here, Mina and Karasu." Togoru said.
Mina's eyes flashed blood red again, then turned back into their natural green. She looked away. Karasu on the other hand, looked quite happy. Togoru seemingly smiled. "We'll hold the ceremony after the tournament." He said.
Mina glared daggers at him. Karasu smirked happily. Mina made a mental note to herself. 'Make sure to beat the shit out of Karasu when this is over and torture Togoru by doing accidents (I.E.: spilling things on him, breaking things, you know, that type) and to make sure that the creepy Togoru doesn't give any 'gifts'

Kurama slowly made his way to the hotel. His eyes cold, his heart stone. 'Idiot, of course she'd take that bastard. Yoko was the one she loved, not me.' He thought, a flicker of gold coming to his eyes. 'I'll make Karasu pay...Mina...I'll have you back!' He thought defiant.

Maru crept through the shadows. 'She's around here somewhere.' She thought. Carefully she stepped over twigs and leaves, yet with a certain grace. Finally, she entered a clearing. Mina was sitting on a rock, looking straight ahead, in the opposite direction as Maru.
Maru licked her lips so they wouldn't dry, and moved silently beside her. Mina didn't move nor flinch. "Maru-chan..." She muttered, closing her eyes in memory. "Girl, what are you up to?" Maru asked.
"I-I..." Tears started to appear in her eyes. "I don't know Kumaru- san, I just...he...I don't want you guys to get hurt...." Mina choked out finally. Maru shook her head. "You could've killed him, you could've killed your whole team, yet you live in denial. Why?" Maru's eyes penetrated her own. Mina looked away wiping the tears.
"I can't Kumaru-san, I just can't." Was her only answer. Maru passed her palm over her eyes in annoyance. "Dear Kami, look at you. Once you get it over with, you and Kurama could live together... not you and Karasu. Mina, you need to get a grip."
Mina was silent. "He'll die before they are all dead." She said after a second. "I'll help you, between me and you, they are weak." Maru said, then she added, "You know that if he doesn't die out of the ring, they ARE going to kill him in the ring."
"I suppose you are right." Mina sighed in defeat. "But, he doesn't want to be with me... since Karasu... we tried to talk, and he just left... Kurama hates me..." Mina wiped away the tears that were coming. Maru put a hand on Mina's shoulder. "Some things will only take time to heal, wounds of the heart. He'll come around." Maru said in a comforting tone. Mina closed her eyes again as if in pain. "I know Kumaru-san, I know."

Yusuke was in shock when he heard this happen. "Why would Mina, who hates her team more than everything, mate with Karasu?! And damn, before Kurama too." He said to Hiei who 'hn'ed. 'Maru, where in seven hells are you that would take this long?!' Hiei thought. He tried to trace her with his Jagan, but she seemingly had blocked their connection.
Kuwabara on the other hand was as clueless as ever. "Huh? Mina...eh...Mina.." He tried to remember who she was. "You mean that hot chick?" He asked Yusuke who shrugged. "Kurama's girl-friend? You mean she was laid by some other guy?" Kazuma asked. "I think the idiot's finally got it." Hiei said, working off some steam on Kuwabara.
Botan didn't take this news too well. From Koenma, she had learned that Mina's tribe had been very strict about mating rituals. Normally by the end of it, the lady was pregnant. So if Mina was carrying Karasu's child (A/N: *shudder* I hope not), Kurama had no chance. 'The poor kitsune, he'll be so depressed.' She thought.
Keiko and Shizuru looked a little sickened by the idea, and Yukina upset. "Why would she do such a horrid thing?" Yukina asked softly. "Something stirred within her that night, I think that there is more to this than it seems." Shizuru said. "Poor Mina, it must be hard. Kurama as well. Keiko said.
Indeed Kurama wasn't taking it well. Though his mind was as sharp as ever in the field, at the hotel he seemed to be in another world. His hair didn't seem as bright and his eyes were dulled with a constant pain in his heart.
Author: Don't you just love these evil cliffies and these chapters that don't have any importance at all? Well, I have no ideas, though, I have a thought. Send me ideas! And maybe I'll stop these cliff hangers....
