Kurama Pov

I turned to Yokaru as we stepped in the clearing. She will believe you. I persisted. The little fox glared at me the best a fox could.

She thought that she'd lost… he didn't finish.

Don't worry, I knelt down to his level. if she loved you then, she'll love you now. He shook his head.

No, I've decided. You're her protector, I couldn't protect her and Midoriko thinks you can. I'm just going to step aside. I'll never let her know. I couldn't believe what he was saying! He turned his head to something.

Kag…ome he said.

Plink. Plink. Plink. Plink. Plink.

Her tears hit the ground. She had a look of disbelief on her face. "Yo…ko" She turned and ran.
