Chapter 15
"Mom, where's Shuichi," Columbia asked after calming down from her happy fit.
"He went out, you can go with him if he's not already gone."
As Columbia walked to the front door, she saw her brother walking towards the frontyard from the backyard. She didn't notice it at first, but Kurama was carrying an old lead pipe.
'What the hell.'
She waited till she knew he was a good distance from the house and began to follow him. While following him, could hear him mumbling something.
"My sister...bastard...break his head in."
'Bastard, who a bast-...fuck, Hiei.'
Since Columbia was in the middle of the street, she ran back to the opposite corner from Kurama and took and alternate route to Hiei's house.
'What's wrong with Kurama, all that over me and Hiei. I gotta get there before all hell breaks loose.'
She ran harder than she had ever run before. Once she reached the house, she ran around back and when through the back fence.
When she opened the gate door, Yukina and Hiei where sitting in the backyard.
Yukina was the first to notice Columbia.
"Red, what's wrong?"
Between breathes, she managed to get out, "Kurama...lead pipe...Hiei."
"Red, that makes no sense."
"Me, Kurama, and a lead pipe? What does that...did he hear the phone conversation?"
Still out of breath, Columbia shrugged.
Then they heard it, the door bell rang.
The three of them looked towards the house knowing that Kurama was on the other side.
"Hiei, you and Red stay out here, I'll try and get him to leave. Come in the house, but stay near the back door, incase you need to make a run for it."
Hiei and Columbia nodded and stood near the back door, but managed to watch Yukina as she walked to the door.
Yukina braced herself as she opened the front door and Kurama stood on the other side, but did he look, well, not pissed, more like crazy.
"Hi Kurama, what's up?"
"Hiei, where is he?"
"He's not here right now, but I..."
"Don't pull that shit Yukina, I know he's here."
"I swear Kurama, he's not here."
"Then you wouldn't mind letting me see for myself."
"Yes, yes I would mind."
As she went to shut the door, the pipe held it from shutting. Now it was gonna start. Kurama flung the door open pushing Yukina back a bit.
"Where is he Yukina, you tell me and I won't hurt you...maybe."
"Kurama no, don't do this."
He didn't seem to listen, instead he swung the pipe at Yukina, but she moved too fast that it struck the wall. Kurama tryed to pull the pipe back, but it was stuck in the wall. That was Yukina's signal to run.
As she ran for the back, a hand pulled her to the staircase to the basement.
"My brother has flipped."
"Flipped, flipped? He just tryed to bash my skull in."
"YUKINA!"
Hiei, Yukina, and Columbia watched as Kurama stalked around the kitchen. He didn't just look crazy now, but also paranoid and homicidal, something no one had ever seen.
"My bro's gonna freakin' kill us."
"Ya think."
"Shut up Yukina!"
"Make me Hiei."
"Both of you, shut up."
That little shout off didn't help 'cause Kurama had heard them and was now heading towards the basement door.
"You can come out and I won't hurt you too much or you can stay in there and we can have some "fun".
"Hiei, you and Yukina go down into the basement and out the cellar door, I'm gonna deal with my psychotic brother."
Hiei grabbed Columbia's arm, but she just shrugged him off.
Columbia listened till she knew that Kurama was near the door and smirked.
"Show time."
Columbia grabbed the door knob and with all her strength, she pushed the door into Kurama, causing him to fall to the ground and the pipe to go skidding across the floor.
"Stupid bitch."
"You're the bitch Kurama."
As she walked over to pick up the pick pipe, a hand reached out and grabbed her ankle, pulling her down.
She turned back to the basement door and yelled, "Go now, GO!"
Kurama pulled her back so she was even with him, stood up, and walked to where the pipe was.
"You shouldn't have done that," he said as he picked the pipe up and headed towards the basement.
Behind Kurama's back, Columbia slowly got up and ran towards Kurama, grabbing his arms.
The stuggle began.
Kurama tried to get out of his sister's grip, but nothing seemed to work. Columbia reached her right hand up and grabbed Kurama's wrist and putting a pressure on it, he eventually dropped the pipe, but even that didn't stop Kurama.
He turned, taking Columbia with him and began to push her back into the wall. Everytime she hit, Columbia would let out a little scream, but nothing that showed true pain. After about the 30th time, she finally gave and crumpled to the floor. Seeing this Kurama went back and picked the pipe up again.
He walked towards his sister, his own flesh and blood and began to raise the pipe. He stopped in front of her and started to bring the pipe down.
Columbia passed out before anything could happen, but Kurama still continued to swing the pipe at her.
Before he could make any contact, two sets of hands reached out and stopped him.
Kurama looked over to see Hiei and Yukina trying to stop him from bringing any harm to his own sister.
Yukina let go, so she could get Columbia out of there.
"Stop this Kurama, you're crazy."
"Crazy? Ha, you're the one who's crazy."
"How am I crazy, when you're the one who's basically trying to kill me, your sister, and my sister."
"You can't..."
"I can't what Kurama?"
Kurama looked up at Hiei with tears staining his face.
"You can't, you'll hurt her."
"What? Why would you think that I'd hurt someone I love."
Kurama just started shaking his head and fighting to be released from Hiei's grip. Giving up, Kurama sunk to the floor taking Hiei with him.
"I don't want, I just..."
"Kurama, I know how you feel. Look at Yukina and, ugh, the Baka, I always tried to stop that relationship thinking that it would end in him hurting her, but then I fianlly realized how happy she was with him."
"But I bet you never did anything this stupid."
"I could have, but I didn't 'cause that would have her Yukina and what you were doing, well, not exactly the same 'cause I think you did hurt her."
"Her back?"
"Yeah, you wanna go see if we could find them."
Kurama nodded and they left the house to find Columbia and Yukina, they ended up finding them at Kurama's house.
Kurama walked in first, expecting to be chewed out by his mom, but when he walked in, all he got were glares from Yukina, Yusuke, Keiko, Kuwabara, Botan, and Koenma, but when Hiei walked in behind him the tension died down.
"Where's my sister?"
Yukina got up, trying to be intimidating, and faced Kurama.
"She's sleeping, or in better terms, knocked out. But I have no idea how that happened, do you Kurama?"
"I'm sorry."
"What, I couldn't hear you, I must still be in shock."
"I said, I'm sorry."
"Don't tell that to me, tell that to your sister, but then you might try to hurt her again."
Hiei walked to his sister and told her something that only she could hear. She looked back at Kurama.
"I'm sorry, you can go see her, if you like."
And that's what Kurama did, he had to make it up to his sister, he just had to.
When he reached her door, he went to go in but stopped. Before he could turn away he heard moaning, but not in a pleasurable way, in a painful way.
"Kurama, just come in and stop being a pussy."
Yeah, his sister was back.
He walked in and saw Columbia on her stomach. She looked over at him and smiled.
"I'm not mad at you now, maybe after I recover, but for now, you're safe."
"Yeah, what happened, how hurt are you?"
"My back is brutally bruised, but ya know, that's besides that point."
"I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you, I promise."
"No, you're gonna make it up to Hiei, 'cause your intentions where to hurt him, not me."
Kurama nodded and went to leave the room.
"Okay, you can do one thing for me."
"What?"
Columbia got a really serious look on her face and looked Kurama directly in the eye.
"Could you help me up."
Kurama fell over anime style.
After recovering, he slowly helped his sister up and walked her down stairs.
At the bottom of the stairs, Columbia was bombarded with hugs.
"Guys...can't...breath."
They instantly let go and let Columbia regain her normal breathing pattern.
"I'm hungry."
Everyone sweatdropped.
"Seriously I am."
They all started laughing and walked out the door, Kurama, Columbia, and Hiei looked at each other, smirked, and walked out the door as is nothing had happened earlier that day.
Ok, that's the nicest way to end a crazy chapter, it took me a while to think it up, so honestly, I feel proud.
Yesterday, my hampster, Midnight, died, it was so depressing and in a way, I'm still grieving.
Tomorrow I have no school, 'cause in Illinois, the junior have PSAE testing and the freshmen, sophmores (ME), and seniors don't have school. So if tomorrow, you see like 50 million new chapters, you know why, 'cause I know I'll get bored and I have to do something.
I think that's about it, besides the fact that I had to kill al my friends for commenting on my limp 'cause I'm in a knee brace, but hey, I got to take the elevator, so HAHA.
