It was late the next afternoon; Kurama and Hiei were sitting in the living room. The night was dark and the stars were shining brightly outside. Hiei was sitting cradled in Kurama's lap, as the kitsune spoon-fed him ice cream. If Hiei had loved the cold desert before, then he was obsessed with it now. His favourite being rocky road with extra hot sauce, jimmies, whipped cream, and at least three cherries on top. "We have to leave for Makai tomorrow you know." Kurama whispered into the small demons ear. Hiei nodded, opening his mouth to receive the next spoon full of his precious sweet snow.
"Hn. where did you put that hateful bottle?" The fire demon asked.
"Someplace where you will never find it." The fox answered grinning slightly he bent to kiss his smaller loves forehead. I know this is heard love, but we have to do what we have to do." He squeezed the smaller demon close to him. "What did you ever do to piss her off anyways?"
"It is a very long story, I will tell you once we get to where ever the hell it is we have to go." Kurama only nodded slowly. He would not forget, to remind the young hi-youkai of what he said. The story would be told, after their child had been delivered into the world safely and no harm had come to it. Then this story would be told. He would be sure of it.
Early the next morning, the two set out for Makai and for the ice regions to the north. It would be a long journey and one that neither of them wished to take. It was one that Kurama dreaded. It would bring them far to close to Koorime island. They would have to cross the mountains that created the barer between the ice regions and the forest regions.
Walking through the dense forest the two lovers walked side by side. Kurama reached down running his fingers through Hiei's soft hair. They had been walking all day Kurama could tell that Hiei was getting tired. Reaching down he lifted the younger fire demon into his arms. Hiei struggled in the fox's arms for a moment before giving in to the taller demons whims knowing there was no escape. Kurama carried the smaller demon through the forest.
"Look isn't that cute." A voice slid through the coming darkness. Kurama turned looking up at the young demon above his head. "You'll never make it. He'll die and I'll be there to laugh at your tears and his pain as the last breath of life leaves his body." Kurama glared at the she- demon that had caused his family so much strife. He wouldn't allow it. In the end she was only going to extend his family and make them happier then they had ever been. But she would not let them go.
"Dance around and deny it. No matter what you are going to do. I'll make sure you fail. My riddles you may slave. But you will never get anywhere." With a cackle the she- demon vanished.
Kurama looked down at Hiei whose intense red eyes looked back him. For the first time ever, Kurama saw there was fear in his eyes. "Don't fear, everything will come out all right." Hiei didn't answer. He simply curled into Karama's arms. They would reach the mountains by nightfall. It would take two days before the reached the snow regions if they where to cross them. Hopefully they would find a far easier way. Kurama didn't want risk anything happening to small lover as they crossed those mountains. To many demons made their homes in those mountains and the going was treturouse.
