Chapter 5: No More Lies
(Kurama's POV)
I woke and looked at Kitsune. She was still asleep without the tourniquet on. I turned my head and looked at the ceiling. Why did it have to happen to her? I could have fought off Tiala by myself however, she had to get involved. Now she's hurt and might not make it. I thought to myself for a while. Then the nurse came in.
"Shuichi, are you okay?" asked the nurse.
I answered, "Yes; I need to go call my mother though. Please watch Kitsune for me." I left the room and went to call my mother. I still had my shirt off. The phone was right next to the room.
(Kitsune's POV; Author's Note: Kitsune is dreaming at first)
I was walking in a dark forest. It was so dark you couldn't see a thing almost. I walked deeper in the forest and then I saw a man with long black hair and violet eyes. The man also had a mask over his mouth. He was the guy that attacked me and gave me my should injury. He smiled and walked over to me.
"Stay way," I said backing away. Then I found a think, long stick and picked it up. I decided to pretend to use it as my quarter stick since I didn't have my own with me.
The man said, "Don't be afraid, my dear."
"What do you want?"
"I want the kitsune princess."
"Who is that?"
"She was the ruler of all the kitsune demons in Makai."
"Isn't she in Makai then?"
"No she isn't. She's inside of you. You are her and she is you. She was killed but not her soul."
"You're not making any sense! How can I be the kitsune princess if I'm human?"
"You are not human. You have a human form but that doesn't mean you are human. You have great powers. Join me and I'll help you."
"HELL NO!" I then decided to attack but this man was quick. I was about to hit him with the stick and he disappeared. Then I heard a voice coming from behind me.
"I'll have you soon my pet." Then I elbow the man in the stomach. He back away.
"LISTEN! I'M NOT THIS PRINCESS YOU ARE LOOKING FOR! AND IF I WAS, I WON'T GIVE UP WITHOUT A FIGHT!"
"Fine; however, you will be mine one way or another."
I woke up with sweat all over my face. It was just a dream but what did it mean. I look around and saw someone sitting next to me.
"Kitsune, you're awake," she said.
"Where am I and where is Shuichi?" I asked trying to sit up.
"He went to call his mother and you're at the hospital."
"What time is it and what happened? Last thing I remember is fainting for blood lose at Shuichi's school."
"Shuichi carried you here and we have you a blood transfusion. Shuichi gave you some of his blood because you might have not made it."
"HE WHAT!" I asked in surprise and angrier. I was surprised that he gave me some of his blood however; I'm angry because I would have survived that but I don't know how. The person in my dream said the kitsune princess is inside of me. I don't understand how and when she got there. Then someone walked into the room. It was Shuichi with his shirt off. I would have turned my head but my head wouldn't move. Shuichi walked over to me.
"How are you feeling, Kitsune?" he asked me.
"Fine; thank you Shuichi," I said.
"For what?"
"The blood transfusion."
"Oh, the nurse told you?"
"Yes; nurse, can you please leave? I need to talk to Shuichi about something?" I asked the nurse.
"Sure and would you like me to close the door?" she asked.
"Yes please," I said. The nurse left and closed the door. Then Shuichi put his shirt back on.
"What did you want to talk to me about, Kitsune?"
"Tell me the truth Shuichi."
"About what?"
"Yourself. I know you're lying to me. I can smell demon blood and my sixth sense tells me your demon. Plus, when you were carrying me here, I didn't feel a heartbeat."
"How long have you known this?"
"I've had a feeling for a while."
"As you guessed, I'm a demon. I use to be the famous Youko Kurama. However, I was shot by a bounty hunter. I fled to Nigenkai and my spirit combined with an unborn baby of my mother, Shiori Minamino." I was silent. My first friend was a demon and he was probably waiting for the right moment to kill me. I wouldn't allow that.
"I know your plan it won't work."
"What plan?"
"You're planning to kill me right?"
"No. Why would I want to do that?"
"Because you're a demon. Demons love to see and taste human flesh and blood."
"Hold on, how do you know what demons like?"
"Stories and I have a feeling."
"Are you telling me the truth?"
"Yes." I actually didn't know. My dream said I was the kitsune princess but I know I'm not. I'm a human with no powers just better senses than normal humans. I then felt Shuichi's hand touch my forehead. What was he doing?
"You seem to a slight fever. You should rest some more, Kitsune."
"No; I'm going back to the orphan age now," I said as I stood up. I then put my shirt back on using my left hand and arm.
"I shall company you, said Shuichi.
"No; I'll be fine and besides, why would a demon like you care for someone weak like me?" I said as I grabbed my cape, and started to walk out of the room. I knew I would never forgive myself if Shuichi became weak because of me.
Wasn't that sad? She didn't accept or rejected Kurama. I wonder is she can ever truth Kurama again. Read and find out.
