Wow such awesome reviews. I'm trying to reward you by writing a fight into this fic but I've barely started so cross your fingers.

I had no referrance for what Youko territory might be like. I just made it up as I went. Hope you like it.

Chapter 14

It took Kurama and Shina three days to reach Youko territory. On the way Shina saw and fought more demons than she had in her entire life. Since arriving in their ancestral homeland Kurama had stopped many times to greet old friends, lovers and even rivals. The territory did not consist of conventional towns but small communities. The area was mostly hills and mountains providing caves, dens and boroughs in clusters.

Shina was fascinated by what she was seeing. She never realized there were so many colors of Youko and they seemed to be scattered everywhere. They also seemed to be in various states of undress. Some were clothed similar to Kurama and herself, others both male and female were either topless or completely nude. Even living with essentially five males there were still parts of the male anatomy she had never seen before and she couldn't help but blush.

While a few Youko were working at various tasks, though with no particular sense of urgency, most were not. The majority of the Youko she had seen were enjoying a very relaxed lifestyle, resting, playing and even loving right out in the open. Shina blushed furiously and tried not to stare but this was another thing she had never seen before. Though she knew her parents had a very active love life, the intimate part of their relationship was always conducted in private.

Kurama smiled as he watched his daughter. For now he would simply let her absorb this new environment. Later he would talk to her and answer any questions she might have. "Shina, it's getting late, we should hunt then find somewhere to sleep. We'll explore more tomorrow."

A few hours later they had hunted then cooked on a communal fire. Kurama had spoken to many Youko that evening. With so many new things to see and do Shina had paid little attention until he led her into a large den. Once inside she could only stare wide eyed at what she saw before then look questioningly at Kurama. The floor of the den was covered in pillows, blankets and Youko. Most were sleeping together in little groups, a few in pairs cuddled together, a few were even making love.

"Come on Little Fox, let's get some sleep." Kurama led Shina to a small space and lay down pulling her beside him. She clung to his side, her head on his chest as he put his arm around her and kissed her forehead.

Before he could wish her good night a gold female on his other side turned and ran her hand down his chest. "This is a pleasant surprise. Want to have a little fun?"

Kurama stopped her hand before it went below his waist. "As lovely as that sounds I'm afraid I'll have to decline. My mate doesn't like to share and sent our kit with me as a chaperon."

Shina's eyes suddenly got very large as a brown male started nibbling the back of her neck. "Go ahead pretty boy, it would be my pleasure to distract this lovely kit for you."

Kurama calmly grabbed the hand that was reaching for her breast. "That wouldn't be wise. Her lover is a great swordsman and fiercely jealous. He might hunt you down just for talking to her."

"Such a pity, she tasted so sweet." Without another word the brown male crawled over them and began making love to the gold female.

"Good night Little Fox." Shina couldn't believe Foxie-Mama was acting like nothing had happened. He simply kissed her forehead again, pulled her tighter into his arms and closed his eyes.

She lay there shocked at what had just transpired. Suddenly realizing what she was watching the couple next to them do, Shina closed her eyes tight, snuggled closer to Kurama and went to sleep.


The next week fell into a routine traveling through the territory. Kurama would greet every Youko they met like an old friend even if he just met them. If there was something he thought they could teach Shina they lingered. She learned about Youko history, their culture, the various powers they possess even the god Anari. From the females she even learned about being a female Youko, things Kurama couldn't teach her.

One thing remained consistent wherever they traveled, male and female of all ages and color wanted Kurama as their lover. He calmly and politely declined every invitation. Shina had her admirers too but with her famous, overprotective parent never letting her further than arms reach they were more reluctant to approach her.

They were currently visiting with Tango, an old friend of Kurama's who had also known Kuronue. Kurama had told him of his rebirth as Shuuichi and Kuronue's reincarnation as Hiei and how they had all found each other. "Kurama that's incredible. I still can't believe you're mated and have kits now. Shina your Foxie-Mama as you call him has definitely changed since I saw him last."

Shina laughed. "So I'm learning. I always knew he had quite a reputation but somehow I never saw him that way. I wonder what Daddy will say when he hears how many Youko threw themselves at him on this trip."

Kurama eyes got big. "He'll say I'm never allowed to leave home again! You Little Fox had better keep your mouth shut unless you think Yokuro should learn how many propositions you have received this week."

Shina shook her head. "No, I don't think that's such a good idea. Maybe we should keep the details of this journey just between us."

With a laugh Kurama turned back to Tango. "I was wondering if you could help me with something. I've been looking for more information on Shina's powers. I can't find anyone that has heard of a Youko with psychokinetic powers before."

Tango stirred his tea as he considered Kurama's question. "True psychokinetic powers are rare in any demon, are you sure that's what it is."

The spoon in his hand disappeared. When he looked up Shina was handing it back to him. "Wow, I've never seen anything like that. I'd keep her powers quiet if I were you. It would be real easy to exploit her. I do seem to remember hearing something once about a female with strange powers. Do you remember an elder by the name of Saeko? She lives about two hours north of here. She might be able to help you."

Kurama nodded. "She's still alive? Sure I remember her but she's got to be almost two thousand years old by now. Thanks, that's the first lead we've gotten all week."


They visited another hour with Tango then headed north. Two hours later they stopped for the night after finding out that Saeko still lived nearby. They ate then found a den for the night.

They settled in after they turned down an invitation to join two males for a night of pleasure. A little while later Kurama realized Shina had not gone to sleep. Looking to see what had caught her attention he found the two males from earlier engaged in serious foreplay. It was obvious to him, if not Shina, that they knew she was watching and were giving her quite an education. They finished their foreplay and began making passionate love.

After a week of exposure to various types of sexual activities Shina wasn't as shy as she had been. She was very curious, watching and learning different methods of pleasing a lover. Even after she realized Kurama was watching she didn't turn away. "Mama, is that how you and Daddy make love?"

"Yes." Kurama waited knowing she would want to know more.

She didn't look at him. "Um, which one of you is… you know…?"

Kurama smiled. "The one on top is called the seme. That role is usually Hiei or Kuro's."

"Oh. I know Daddy is dominant in our family but since you're so much taller I thought that you would… you know… take that role in private." Shina was blushing like mad at the nature of their conversation.

"Shuuichi and I do take control occasionally, but we all usually prefer it the other way."

They lay quietly as the males continued their show, it seemed they enjoyed an audience. When they finished Shina yawned, cuddling into Kurama. "G'nite Foxie-Mama, I love you."

"Love you too Little Fox."
