Default chapter 3 

Hiei sat in the park just staring at his arms. Kurama slowly walked over and sat down in front of him. " Hello Hiei" he said with a fake smile. He knew Hiei wouldn't answer, but to his surprise, he did. Hiei looked up at Kurama and looked back down at the table. " Hello fox.

Kurama picked Hiei up and walked out of the house with Yusuke, Kuwabara and an unconscious Yukina behind him. They went to Genkai's temple ignoring the many people who stopped walking to stare at the Kitsune and his bloody bundle. As they walked, Kurama was thinking to himself. He didn't want to believe that it was too late, that he was gone. That Hiei was dead. When they arrived at the temple, Genkai swiftly took Hiei from Kurama's arms, laid him on the floor and started to heal him. Botan came in and took Yukina into a separate room. Yusuke and Kuwabara left quietly and Kurama slowly walked over to a dark corner, curled up, and started to cry. He didn't know how long he was crying or that he had fallen asleep. Genkai came up to him and told him that she had done all she could. Kurama didn't know if that meant that it wasn't enough or if he would be okay. " Will you be all right?" she asked " Hai" Kurama answered in a low voice. She left him and he crawled over to the koorime and wept some more.

" Are you all right?" Kurama had always tried to make friendly conversation but for a while to no prevail. " Hn" was the only answer he ever got and Hiei wasn't going to change that now.
