Chapter 4
Yay! More reviews!!! So happy! ( Okay, now on to chappy 4! And I don't own YYH. So don't sue.
Kurama sat on the couch, reading a book. Yoshimi was bored, bored, bored. She really wanted to talk with Kurama, because he was as probably as bored as she was. Then Yoshimi got an idea. Maybe they could go somewhere. Like to his house. Surely he wants to see his mom. She could use that to get him out of the house. And then...
"Hey Kurama," Yoshimi said, in her best begging voice. "Can we please go somewhere? I haven't met your mom yet, and I would really like to. Besides, it's really boring here and I'm sure Koenma wouldn't mind me going out, as long as you were with me. Please?"
"Hmm... I suppose it would be alright." Kurama said. "After all, I haven't seen my mother in a couple of days, and I'm sure she would like to see me."
"Okay! Well then, let's go!" Yoshimi said, starting out the door.
"Wait," Kurama said, stopping Yoshimi. "Maybe we should check with Koenma first, just to see if it's alright." He pulled out a communicator Koenma had given him and talked into it. "Hmm...nobody there. I suppose I should leave a message," he said, waiting for the beep. "Koenma? This is Kurama. Yoshimi and I are just going on a little trip into town. We won't be gone long. I keep a close watch on her, so don't worry. Goodbye." With that he put the communicator back into his pocket. "Shall we?" Kurama said, holding the door open for Yoshimi.
Yoshimi smiled. "Okay," she said, stepping out the door. Kurama followed, locking the door behind him.
Yavanna had her plan already worked out. She knew the former thief and his new girlfriend couldn't hide forever. They had to get bored sometime and come out, and when they did, she would get the both of them. Her plan was fool-proof. She would inject both of them with a poison that would make them lose control of both their muscles and their spirit energy. Yavanna knew she probably didn't have to give the girl any; it was likely that she could easily overpower her. But Yavanna knew that sometimes even the simplest of humans had spirit energy, and she wasn't taking any chances.
She was almost done preparing the injection when the two people came out of the cabin. Damn! Yavanna thought, angrily berating herself. She hadn't expected them to come out so early. She comforted herself on the knowledge that she would have another stab at it, when they came back.
Kurama and Yoshimi were having a grand time, walking through the forest on her way to his mother's house. "You'll like my mother," Kurama was saying. "She is very sweet and caring."
"I'm sure I'll love her," Yoshimi said with a smile. "Any chance of us stopping by my apartment? I could check in on my grandparents and they could meet you."
"I'm sure we could do that," Kurama said, with one of his trademark smiles. (AN: ah! His smiles!)
When they got to Kurama's house, Kurama knocked on the front door. "Mother, it's me," he called out. Yoshimi loved his voice, no matter what it was saying.
"Coming," a woman's voice called out. A moment later, the door opened. Standing there was a woman with black hair and brown eyes. She had a friendly smile, not unlike Kurama's. But nobody could match that smile.
"Hello, Shuichi," she said. For a moment, Yoshimi wondered who she was talking too. But then she noticed she was staring right at Kurama. Maybe Kurama goes by his middle name when he is with his friends, she thought.
She was returned to earth by Kurama's voice introducing her. "This is Yoshimi, mother. She and I meet a few days ago and she wanted to meet you, so I brought her here." He left out the part about where they met, and about the demon group, so she assumed his mother didn't know.
"Nice to me you. You can call me Shiori," Kurama's mother said.
Yoshimi bowed her head. "Nice to meet you, too," she said.
"Come in and have a snack," Shiori said. Kurama and Yoshimi followed her inside.
Yavanna smiled and laughed to herself. She had just finished putting the finishing touches on the paralyzer. Soon she would have both the girl AND Kurama in her grasp. She chuckled and settled in for the wait.
One hour later, after their "snack" (which was way too huge to be any normal snack) and talk with Shiori, Kurama and Yoshimi finally left the house. "I suppose we should go back before Koenma gets too mad," Yoshimi said, walking beside Kurama.
"Perhaps you are right," he said. "Maybe another time."
They walked on for a while until they reached the cabin. Yoshimi walked into the clearing, but Kurama pulled her back. "Wait Yoshimi, I think I heard something," he said. He listened a long moment. "I guess it was nothing," Kurama said, shrugging.
Yoshimi was almost to the door when Kurama fell to the ground beside her. "Kurama are you alri—"she was cut off by a sharp pain in the back of her neck. She fell over, joining Kurama on the ground. She was face down, so she couldn't she what was happening. Someone loaded them onto something then started off at a ridiculous pace, leaving the cabin far behind.
