Caraina's P.O.V.

"About three hours after Demoi came back, an unholy screaming began in the living room. I went down to see what was happening to the kid. I didn't expect to see Ukera sitting in the armchair across from the couch covering her mouth and crying. The kid was clutching his forehead and issuing the ungodly noise. Ukera turned to me and spoke in a whisper.

"What's going on? What's happening to him?" she asked.

"His jagon is coming back, and his mind is warping to Hiei's. His voice might change as well." I answered.

Tears were streaming all over his face. Ukera walked over to him and laid a hand on his cheek. The screaming immediately died down leaving Demoi's breathing rather harder than usually. Ukera turned to me. "I'll stay here with him for the night. Tomorrow I'll just sleep in," she said.

"Ukera… Are you sure?" I asked, uncertain.

"Yeah. Just o to sleep," Ukera said.

I left the living room and went back to sleep.

Ukera's P.O.V.

When Caraina left, I crawled onto the couch next to Demoi. I hoped this would help to end the screaming. The warmth of his body against mine was comforting in an odd way. I had needed to feel the warmth of a man's body against mine since Hiei had died. After about half an hour I could hardly hold my eyes open any longer, and fell into an easy sleep.

Kurama's P.O.V.

Caraina answered the door.

"Oh, hey Kurama. What's up?" She asked.

"How're the kid and Ukera doing?" I asked.

"I don't know. I just woke up. Want to check?" Caraina asked.

"If you don't mind"

I didn't expect to see what I did. Ukera was lying in the couch in the kid's arms. Demoi had his arm around her waist, but he looked… different somehow. He never had a jagon! He must have begun to change… Ukera was smiling in her sleep. I owed the kid much for that miracle.

"How adorable! She's never going to live this down," Caraina said.

"Yes. Awkward, but adorable. It seems that she had fallen back in love," I said.

Caraina looked at Kurama, then back at the two on the couch. "I may just have my brother back, and his mate is finally back to normal," she said.

We went to her room after that.

Ukera's P.O.V.

I woke up to see Yusuke and Caraina staring at me. I stared back.

"What?" I finally asked.

"Comfortable?" Yusuke asked.

"Very. Really, what do you want?" I said.

"So he was the source of those ghastly shrieks last night? Man, I never thought he had it in him…" Yusuke said.

Demoi turned over in his sleep.

"So… Uh… When do you think he'll wake up?" Caraina asked.

"That depends on how soon we need or want him to get up," I said.

"Well, Botan and Koenma are coming here to see how fast he's changing. It was just a rough guess that it would take about a month. It could take more or less time than that," Caraina said.

"Okay then. I'll just wake him up now then," I said.

"You do that… We'll start on lunch…" Caraina said, dragging Yusuke to the kitchen.

"Hey! Wake up! Botan and Koenma will be here soon," I whispered into Demoi's ear.

Demoi groaned and opened his eyes. "Why?"

"I don't remember… I was half awake when they said why," I said, blushing.

Demoi started getting up, but then turned to me. "Exactly why were we sleeping on the same couch?"

"It's the only thing we found that could quiet your screaming without hurting you," I said.

"Ah… I see. Is that all?" he asked.

"Mostly. It might also have been the fact that you're the reincarnation of my mate. I don't know if that played a part init or not though…"

Caraina popped her head into the living room. "Food's done if the two of you are hungry," she said, and then left.

Demoi looked toward the doorway Caraina had been in, and then back at me. He held out his hand to help up. Reluctantly I grabbed his hand and followed him to the dining room.
