(start chapter)
Chapter Eight: Kitsunes
Kurama looked around the house and smiled. They had finally finished decorating and the place looked great, now all he had to do was make a few snacks for the party. He walked into the kitchen and began taking out the things he needed, he smiled when he felt Hiei's arms being wrapped around his waist. The Kitsune closed his eyes for a moment, then turned around to look at Hiei.
"What is it Hiei?" Kurama asked, smiling at the little fire demon.
"I'm hungry..." Hiei said, he groaned as his stomach growled.
Kurama laughed, "Alright...Take a seat and I'll make you something to eat" Hiei smiled and sat on one of the chairs in the kitchen. He watched as the kitsune pulled something out of one of the many cubbords and stuck it in the microwave, or atleast that's what he thought Kurama called it. The kitsune pushed a few buttons and soon the scent of whatever was in there began wafting throughout the room. Hiei sniffed the air and his stomach growled again. 'Hurry up!' Hiei thought. He smiled when Kurama placed it infront of him. Hiei looked up at Kurama. "It's alright Hiei...It's not gonna kill you. It's a pizza pop" Hiei titled his head in confusion then looked back down at the pizza pop.
"Thank you" Hiei said as he picked it up. He took a bite out of it and to his surprise it tasted rather good. He smiled and took another bite, then another.
"Your welcome" Kurama tried to hold back his laughter. He then turned back to his work.
A couple hours had passed and Kurama was finally finished withhis cooking. He pulled the snacks from the oven and left them to cool off, he then grabbed a coupld bowls and filled them with chips and popcorn. He sighed looking at the clock. 'it won't be long now...' Kurama brought the bowls into the living room and placed them on the table, which was now against the wall. He had made sure that the furniture was out of the way, just in case. He went back into the kitchen and smiled at Hiei.
"What do you want me to do with these?" Hiei asked holding up a couple cans of pop.
"Put them in the cooler in the other room...I'll bring in the other drinks" Hiei sighed taking the case of pop into the other room. He put the drinks into the cooler which was filled with ice, once he had finished that he helped Kurama withthe coolers. Kurama looked around the room. "Do you know where Zeichi is?" He asked looking at the little fire youkai.
"No...I haven't seen him since we finished decorating" Kurama sighed looking around the room.
"Can you go look for him? I need to finish setting up..." Hiei nodded and left the room. Hiei walked up the stairs leading to the second floor. He loooked in every room, but there was no sing of Zeichi. He walked back down the stiars and bumped into Kurama, who was about to join him upstairs. Kurama looked at Hiei and sighed, his eyes showing concern for Zeichi's where abouts "He isn't up stairs?" Hiei shook his head.
"Is there anywhere else we can search?" Hiei asked, the slightest bit of concern showing in his voice.
"He may be downstairs...But the light stopped working a couple of days ago and ever since then I haven't been down there" Hiei looked towards the basement door and walked towards it.
"Well we have to try right?" Kurama nodded "Don't worry about stumbling around in the dark..." Kurama smiled knowing what Hiei had in mind. As they walked down the stairs a small flame appeared in Hiei's hand. "This should work..." Hiei said as they continued down into the basement.
They soon reached the ground floor and looked around, Zeichi wasn't in sight.The two split up Kurama using a candle for light and Hiei using the flame in his palm. Hiei soon found a door in the basement. He quietly turned the knob and walked into the room. 'The laundry room..' Hiei laughed and was about to leave the room when he heard a graon of some sort. He walked into the room, he looked around, but didn't see anything. He continued walking a bit further into the room until he almost tripped. He looked at the ground and smiled, there on the ground lay Zeichi, sound asleep.
Hiei kneeled down beside him the flame in his hand illuminating the angelic features of the half wraiths face. Suddenly Hiei had an odd feeling creeping through his body, he leaned towards the younger boy and placed a kiss upon his lips. Hiei pulled back, the boy was still asleep. Hiei leaned in to kiss Zeichi again, but noticed something quite peculiar.
"Kitsune ears?" Hiei stared at the ears on the boys head. They were completely black, except for the red tips. He looked down at Zeichi a confused expression on his face "Isn't he supposed to be a wraith?" Hiei asked himself "Then why does he have Kitsune ears?" The boy stirred in his sleep, showing his back to Hiei. Hiei fell back in utter shock, "He has a tail too?!" Hiei quickly covered his mouth knowing that he had said that loud enough to wake Zeichi and to bring Kurama into the room.
"Hiei?" Kurama asked as he walked into the room. He gasped dropping candle, the light to it flickered out.
(Time Change)
Zeichi awoke to the sound of loud music and people hollaring. He sat up realizing that he was on his bed. 'How did I get up here?' Zeichi looked around the room, then stood up and walked into the bathroom. 'Oh shit! When did they grow back?!' Zeichi looked around the room for any sort of sharp object, he wasn't able to find one. Panicking slightly he pulled his hod over his head and quickly tied his tail to his leg, making sure that it didn't look strange, he walked down the stairs. He looked around the living room, many people were dancing, some were just talking in small groups and as usual Kuwabara was flirting with every girl in sight. Zeichi quickly made his way through the living room, stopping when he saw Hiei and Kurama tight in a lip lock, the fire youkai sitting on Kurama's lap. Zeichi giggled quietly and walked into the kitchen. He opened one of the drawers and pulled out a knife, hiding it in his sleeve, he went back up the stairs.
He walked into the bathroom and pulled his hood off. He looked into the mirror once more and sighed. 'I hate having to do this...But if I don't and my dad finds out...I'll be living a life worse than the one I'm living now...He'd never trust to leave me alone again...' Zeichi pulled the right ear upward and winced as he felt the knife cutting through the soft skin of his ear. He bit his lip trying to stop himself from crying out in pain as the knife began cutting through the cartilage in it. He felt his hand jolt up and took a couple of deep breaths he looked in the mirror again. 'One down...One to go...Then after that I have to deal with the tail...' He pulled on the other kkitsune ear and did the same, this time making sure to bite his lip from the start. He put the knife down on the counter and quickly grabbed a few pieces of goz. He pushed them against the top of his head, then looked down at the two kitsune ears on the counter.
Once the bleeding stopped he grabbed hold of his tail, picking up the knife again, he closed his eyes. Bringing the knife down, he lightly touched the tail, then lifted it up again, he quickly brought it down a second time putting a lot of force behind it, but he wasn't prepared for the shock. He screamed out in pain and fell to his knees, his eyes watered. He looked at the tail in his hands. 'Atleast it's off...' Zeichi thought and stood up. He grabbed a few more pieces of goz and held them on the wound with one of his hands. With his free hand he disposed of the ears and tail making sure they were somewhere Kurama wouldn't look. He pulled the goz away from the wound and smirked. 'there wasn't as much blood this time...' He tought as he touched the, now healed wound with his fingers. He left the bathroom and walked over to his bedroom door. He locked it then walked over to his bed, collapsing on it he immediately fell asleep.
