Chapter 19

Thank you all for reviewing!

Would you all be kind a read my friends story, it's called reawakening. It may be short now, but it's a real good story, I've read through most of it already.

It's a Yu Yu Hakusho story. ... means it's going to another scene...

Anyways...

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho

"ING!" Kira screamed hugging him close. "Please...please....don't die..." she whispered.

"I...would never think of that..." He panted as the pain spread through his body.

Kira looked at him sadly and looked at her cloak. "I'll help you..."

She tore her cloak and placed it on Ing's wounds. Quickly bandaging him she looked around the prison, hoping to find the water, they left her.

"Where'd I leave it...?" She asked herself as her eyes scanned the dark room.

"What..."

"Ing don't you dare talk. Wait here..."

Kira stood up and traveled cautiously around the room feeling around for the walls. She fell to her knees as she crawled around the ground trying to reach a bowl of water, she had been left with.

"Aha! I found it..." She smiled as she grabbed the bowl.

She turned to Ing and saw him lay still in the moonlight. The light touched his face showing the fear he held in his eyes. "I'm sorry Ing..." She whispered to herself as she clasped a hand against her mouth, holding in her cries. She rushed towards him as she heard the groans coming from his mouth.

"Here...Ing..."

She tipped the bowl over against his lips so as he could sip the cold water, painfully gulping it down.

When he finished she used the rest of the water to clean his other numerous wounds.

"Thank you..." He croaked as his voice was raspy.

"No problem. Now get some rest okay..." He nodded as a response as he closed his eyes.

She watched his sleeping figure as she slowly ran her hand through his hair.

"You'll be okay..."

"Is this really the way, we seem lost!" Yusuke complained. "Shut your mouth you loud mouth boy! We shall get there soon!" Zi shouted as she tried to flick his nose. Only frowning after realizing that she was only but a mere spirit.

"I'll do it for ya..." Keiko smiled as she clasped Yusuke's nose, pulling it forward.

"I GET IT!" Yusuke shouted painfully rubbing his nose.

"Enough nonsense..." Hiei stated at the two. Keiko only looked down ashamed as Yusuke looked the other way.

"Hush, we are here..." Zi whispered as they approached a castle.

"It's humongous..." Kuwabara gasped as he gaped at it.

"Okay now it won't be easy to step in, especially at night..." Zi explained as she looked at everyone.

"We didn't expect it to be easy" Kurama sighed.

"So what do we exactly expect?" Hiei asked the little girl.

"Many things..."

"Kira...?" Ing asked as he sat up. "Don't sit..."

"Kira...don't worry. Why do you still have hope?" He asked as he looked into her eyes. "I mean I lost all hope, well until you came..."

"I know my father and mother will come. They would never desert me...never..." She mumbled hugging herself.

"Your parents must love you a lot..." He smiled as he stood up to walk to her.

"Yes they do. They went through a whole lot together just to protect me. Now they're doing it again. It makes me wonder if I'm in the way..." She sadly stated hugging her knees as she rested her head on them.

"Never talk like that. If you were in their way they wouldn't take the time to save you...you could never be in anyone's way..." He whispered.

"But look what happened to you! That happened because you were trying to protect me! You could've died!" She shouted tears streaming down her face.

"Kira, I chose to defend you. It wasn't your fault..." He comforted as he touched her face softly. "You're not gonna flip me over are ya?" He asked, taking his hand away.

She only smiled as she grasped his hand and placed it on her face again. "No.."

He smiled and pulled her into an embrace, but quickly pulled back.

"Ing what's wrong?"

"I just don't want to get you bloody and smelly..." he laughed rubbing the back of his head.

"I don't care!" She cried hugging him tightly. "Ow..."

"Sorry..."

"Kira your going to have to be careful, I don't want anything to happen to you..."

"Never. After all you don't know my father..."

The group slowly approached the castle making sure that no noise was heard. "It's too quiet..." Botan whispered.

As soon as that was said many demons fell from the skies striking the group.

"Everyone split up and fight!" Hiei ordered as he slashed a demon in two.

"Keiko?"

"Hiei no worries! I can take care of myself, let's go Botan!"

"YES!"

The two girls ran into the doors of the castle leaving the boys to take care of the monsters.

"Do you think that they'll..."

"Botan they'll be fine. You've seen them fight...those demons are nothing compared to them..." Keiko panted as she ran trough the narrow halls.

Their footsteps echoed as their shadows loomed over the dim lit halls.

"Keiko we have no clue where we're going?" Botan sighed stopping.

"Sorry it's just that, my Kira..."

"Hey were you two going without me!" Zi shouted catching up to them.

"There's our tour guide, now where to?" Keiko asked anxiously.

Zi looked around the halls dumbfounded and looked back at Keiko.

"You were going the right way..." She whispered surprisingly.

"Really!" Keiko stated.

"Of course Keiko, you're connected to your daughter in so many ways! Let's keep going..."

"Yes..." and with that said the two sped off.

Zi stood behind and looked around worriedly.

"This seems too easy..."

"Kira do you here that?" Ing asked trying to get up. Using the wall for support he tip toed to look out the barred window.

"The demons have been called out...but why?"

"Let me see!" Kira cried bouncing up and down. "Kira how does your father look like?"

"He has spiky black hair, with...um...some white in the middle. He has red eyes, and always where's a cloak! He also fights with a sword!" She shouted.

"That's definitely him. And there are others..."

"Do you see my mother?"

"No..."

Kira looked sadly to the ground. "I wonder what happened to her?"

"She's fine..." A voice whispered from the door.

"Mama!"

"Yes it's me, now let me get this door..."

"KEIKO!" Botan shrieked.

"What...oh..!"

"Mama!?"
