Kurama: WHAT'S GOING ON? Well, i guess the only way to know what's going on is to read through the story to the other side. Enjoy.
Three days since the Red Moon
Kai walked up the darkened stairs of the fortress trying to keep a calm face. She knew that even though Karasu was now trying to disclaim -even kill- her, she had to in his presense for the day. Kai was ready the beating she was sure to get since she failed to be in the chamber for three days.
/- I couldn't come. I had to keep Yoko and Hiei from being found by those dragon beast. And now, I'm worried because I'm not there... and I'm even more worried about what Karasu will do to me... -/
However, when the dragoness waited for the sign to open the door to the chamber, she heard no voice. Nor did Kai sense the massive ki level that wasalways behind it. Alarmed, she opened the oak door without permission and gasped to see no Karasu.
Exhaling, Kai smiled in realization.
/- Looks like it is Karasu who is now 'sneaking around' -/ She giggled mentally.
In the end, Kai took his place at the window, waiting for him to come back and slightly glad that Karasu wasn't there to meet her. And to make things better, Karasu's energy was so large, that Kai could track it in the thick forest, reguardless of him trying to mask it.
For fun, Kai closed her eyes, tracking Karasu mentally though the forest and seeing where and what he was doing...
Chi-Li had never been so happy in decades. What more could a dragoness want? She was soaking in a secluded hot spring with her new lover, a new necklage hung around her being and she was being treated like royalty. Could it get any better?
It suddenly did as Karasu started to near her.
"I believe that you know of the question about to ask, koi." He stated, his wings folding behind his back.
Chi-Li gasped slightly, being as the dragon's naked being was in front of her... drenched in sweat and water. There was a certain shine in Karasu's eyes that he got that told that he was being playful and loving. It gave Chi-Li a sense of pride, thinking that Kai probably never got this look before.
Her eyes suddenly became cold.
"I'm ready anytime that an orange moon shows itself... however, I shall not mate with you when that happens."
The shine went to surprise as Karasu gasped. Why would Chi-Li turn down to dance with him? Unknown to him, Chi-Li's aqua eyes were burning with jealous of a certain dragoness.
"I shall not mate with a male that has two females under his power... Kai is a factor that is perventing me from bearing offspring with you, Karasu."
He now understood... and then showed his own ice violets. Chi-Li soon regreted talking back to Karasu in such a manner.
"Kai is still under my protection until we migrate into the NingenKai. Don't you dare think of her as a lover. I'm loyal only to you... unless you are thinking otherwise..." He growled.
Chi-Li was suddenly grateful that the two of them were in a hot spring, for she suddenly remembered Karasu's ability to smell other males. She had been around Hiei most of the time.
That was sure to sentence her to an early grave.
However, she was in water, so Karasu couldn't tell. The feel of strong arms around her being sent Chi-Li back into bliss, the evil energy engulfing her being. Karasu's rice voice captured her ears, sending her knees to dissapear.
"That time is coming so very soon. I can perdict that ten moons from now... our new domain in the NingenKai shall be reality." He whispered.
Chi-Li purred under the words, but still held her fear.
Kai sighed. If only Chi-Li knew of what would happen to the NingenKai if Karasu and the rest of the dragons were to enter it...
Figuring that Karasu wasn't coming to the chambers anytime soon, Kai took her leave from the chambers, smiling all the way. Since Karasu was with his lover... there was no reason for Kai not to do the same.
"Oh, gods, Ruby. Why must you tease me?"
"I love to see you struggle."
"Please, koi... Onegai!"
"Nani? Can't here you, koorime."
An aray of giggles lit up the atmosphere as Ruby looked at the panting Hiei in front of her. The mutt was torturing the poor demon by slowly removing her armor. The two had not been together for three days... and both had much stress that needed to be let out.
However, the vines that had Hiei's hands tied prevented Ruby from going faster.
He growled as he felt aroused by the dragon mutt's seductive dance.
"Onegai! Let me go!"
"Iie... I love to see you suffer... especially when I'm causing your suffering," she growled lustfully, slowly pulling down her top armor piece.
Hiei's breathing sharped as Ruby only allowed the shoulders to show... and her breast to still be hidden.
"Ruby-chan! Onegai! Onegai!" He screamed in utter submission as his head rested against the tree he was against.
The fire demon's arousal was so stiff, it hurt just to move. Either Ruby was to take care of it soon, or Hiei was to swallow his pride and take care of it himself. He just needed one hand! The vines seem to tighten the more that the fire demon struggled.
Obivously demon controlled by Ruby.
Suddenly, the dragon fox got on all fours, crawling over Hiei. He tried to thrust upwards to gain friction, but the mutt's hands held his hips and legs down. Ruby's orange jewels seem to glow a deadly light as she stared at Hiei's tightening pants.
The fire demon once again made a pitiful plea and he cursed himself for sounding so weak under Ruby's torture.
"Please... just one hand..."
Ruby chuckled.
"Say those magic words." She whispered, biting on Hiei's ear lob as her own fox ears turned back in pleasure.
The fire demon grinned with anticipation.
"Aishiteru, my koi."
Kurama shook his head with amusement as he watched over Ruby and Hiei. As the activities became deeper, he took his leave, not wanting to be gazing upon a private moment. However... Ruby had enchanted his senses as well and Kurama was now wondering where his daughter had learned such seductive moves.
/- Probably from Kai. Those two are masters at such things. -/
Suddenly, the fox heard the distant roar of a dragon beast. He stopped his movement through the forest, trying to find the area in which the dragon was. It was the second one Kurama had heard this morning.
/- Karasu must be sending more in the forest... I hope Chi-Li comes from hiding soon. We have to tell her about the portals to the NinganKai and its dangers. Only then will Karasu stop this futile plan. -/
As if on a whim, Kurama caught sight of Chi-Li... and her tending to the dragon beast that he had heard. She petted the beast and it flew off as Kurama hid in a near-by tree.The dragonesssighed and turned to face the very tree, her eyes narrowed.
"You're masking skills are decreasing, Kurama. You should be glad that I sent off that beast. He was on your trail all morning."
The fox dropped down to the tree, smiling quite sweetly. He was used to Chi-Li's harsh, yet true, statements.
"Well, thank you for the help. However... I need to tell you some infomation that we recived three days ago. It was when you walked off that Boton flew down to tell us... some startling news."
As Kurama started to explain, he noticed that the more details he told, the more unconfortable Chi-Li grew. Known to him, the dragoness was trying her best to hide the fact that she had been purposely avoiding the group. However, when Kurama got to the part of world doomnation, Chi-Li somewhat cracked.
Just what the fox wanted.
"So, you wanted to be part of this plan... knowing about humanity's fate. But, did you ever think of the concequences?" Kurama stated, a bit of dissapointment coming from his lips.
Of course it was his idea to bring Chi-Li and Karasu together in the first place, but he wanted the dragoness to talk sense into the demented alpha, not encourage him! Suddenly, Chi-Li's voice went into a submissive whisper that was very uncharacteristic of her.
"His voice..."
Kurama's eyes narrowed.
"Pardon?"
The dragoness held her cheeks softly as she blushed deeply. A blissful smile painted her lips.
"Karasu's voice. It's his tone... that beautiful deep tone that he uses that makes me agree with him each time. It's that seductive tone that I love him for... and he loves me because of my agreeably attitude... more than Kai."
Even though the last part of Chi-Li's explaination was meant not to be heard, the fox listened to everything. He understood that this wasn't just about Karasu anymore. Hiei was right in saying that Chi-Li was truely jealous of Kai in Karasu choosing her over his mate.
In the end, Kurama's eyes softened and he sighed deeply.
"Well, reguardless of how deep your love is running for him, you must tell him. You listened to my report; if Karasu sends all of you into the NingenKai, everyone dies. Including what little the dragon race is. Even though you all have exploded as a race in the Makai, the majority of your race are on this very island. Think of the future, the bigger picture."
Chi-Li looked at the ground, still not sure in how to approuch the situation. She knew it was suicidal for them to go to the NingenKai... but Karasu looked so happy in his denial. She didn't want to dissapoint him. Kurama saw the conflict in her eyes and hardened his gaze.
Chi-Li gasped in fright, knowing he was serious.
"If you truely 'love' Karasu, you will save his life and tell him of the concequence of going to the NingenKai!" He commanded.
Finally, her mind were opened. She realized that if she truely did love Karasu and wanted to protect him, she would hurt his soul, break his spirit and tell him to stop the migration. However, there was still one more factor to pet in concideration.
"Kurama, what if he still wants to go? What if I can't convince him? Will you have to..."
"Hai, Chi-Li.Hiei and Iwill have to do away with your alpha. In time, I'm sure your clan will be able to seek another dominate male, but Karasu poses too much of a treat to both the Makai and the human world."
A tear raced down Chi-Li's cheek. She thought of having to watch Karasu die and how betrayed he would feel if she wasn't able to talk him out of going. However... life mates are until death. If he died, her heart would hurt for a few days literally, but Chi-Li would be able to find another love.
That fact made Chi-Li's will and courage stronger.
With her tears dried and her aqua eyes determinded, she nodded in agreement with the fox. Kurama also nodded as he jumped back into hiding. Chi-Li made a run for it, for the two of them had stayed in one place for way too long...
... and Karasu might have been listening to the whole thing.
Evening
Kai, flying through the forest, was bored out of her mind! She couldn't find Chi-Li -she knew were she was- she couldn't find Yoko, and couldn't find Hiei and Ruby and Kai was willing to bet that those twodidn't want to be found.
To ease her boredon, the dragoness flew towards the coast line to daze at the sea. She sat at the edge, letting the waves that pounded against the shore connect with bare legs. Looking out on the open water, Kai sometimes wondered why they -the dragons- stayed to one island.
/- Dragons were never pushed together in one place, so why don't we just leave? Nothing's holding us back. Are we afraid; afraid of Karasu and the open Makai so much that we aren't willing to fly away? During my younger days, I was never so attached to one place for long. I was always on the move. Always exploring... NEVER BORED! -/
Kai hugged her legs from them being with the water so much. Her orange eyes closed, trying to figure her lastest problem out.
/- We've got to leave. This migration is not the solution, but if we sore freely... away from this small island... then we can truly live as a race of our own. Sure, we might not have a leader or a clan... and we might not see each other more, but Dragons weren't meant to live like this. Who cares what the Makai thinks of us! I've made up my mind. -/
Kai stood up, looking at the water once more. The lowering sun kissed the sea, sending it to blush wonderful colors of red and orange... and just a dash of white with the dancing of light. The dragoness smiled, seeing her newest solution to be her best yet.
Now all she had to do was find Kurama and tell her.
Kurma: now, what's going on?
Hiei: This site sucks... a lot
awake and we just noticed that.
Kurama: sweatdrops you guys are slow...
T.K: sticks out his tongue review please.
