Mayumi awoke with a jolt sitting straight up to find surroundings she was unsure of. She didn't remember how she got there but the air smelled Makai. She looked around to find herself in what appeared to be a cabin of some sort. She stood up ignoring the pain that gripped her shoulder and walked outside.

"Ah so Ms. Taisho you woke up?" The SDF member said. Mayumi nodded.

"Yeah you blacked out last night in Koenma's office and I was instructed to take you here to this save point until the fox spirit is taken care of." He stated. Mayumi nodded again feeling nasous but ignored it. She shivered slightly staring at the morning sun.

"So what did he do to you?" Mayumi looked over at him and shook her head.

"I don't feel like talking. I think I'll go lay down for a while longer." She said going back inside. The presence she felt when she entered was unmistakable. Mayumi turned to run only to be caught by strong arms.

"Shhhh Mayumi Taisho. I'm not going to hurt you. I just want an explanation." Yoko whispered into her ear forcing her onto the bed ripping at her clothes. Mayumi fought at him but physically he over powered her. His frantic kisses covered her body as she tried to get out from underneath him.

"Why Mayu? What have I done to you that you would send them after me?" He asked as he entered into her body. Mayumi fought to get him out of her but he bared down his weight. She was helpless.

"I hate you." Mayumi spat at him quietly.

"Why?" Yoko sobbed out. "What have I ever done to you?"

"You've killed everyone I've ever cared for!" Mayumi said trying to claw at his face.

"Who told you that Mayu? Who?"

"Yomi."

"And you believed him?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Why would he lie to me?"

"To get you to sleep with him."

"No he wouldn't have…"

"You barely even knew Yomi how do you know what he would or would not do."

"No! No!" Mayumi said feeling her heart break.

"Mayu I admit that when I saw you in the forest for the first time I did think you very lovely but it was Yomi who murdered everyone allowing you to be taken prisoner. I felt sorry for what he did that is why I followed you to Gavlers. That is why I took care of you."

"And what about Rin?"

"Kinta was jealous of what you and I shared that is why she murdered Rin. When I found out I killed her out of rage. I could never have hurt that child Mayumi."

"Mio?" Mayumi asked helplessly.

"Yomi." Yoko said shortly. Mayumi felt helpless. She didn't know what to do. She looked into Yoko's eyes as he made love to her to find them sincere.

"Why didn't you ever explain this before?" She asked choking up.

"I didn't think that you would actually…" Yoko said his eyes welling with tears. Mayumi wrapped her arms around his neck bringing him closer to her kissing him passionately.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." She sobbed between kisses. Yoko kissed back just as desperately pushing himself deeper into her body.

"I forgive you. When I found out you had put a hit out on me I tried hating you but I can't. I love you too much." He said his pace quickening. Mayumi arched her back as sweat began to drip down her forehead.

"They'll kill me." He said.

"I know kitsune." Mayumi replied.

"I hope that someday you will let someone love you Mayumi Taisho with out searching for a reason to hate them and expecting to be betrayed." Yoko said as he climaxed. Mayumi held him against her knowing that the SDF outside had to have felt his energy wave. Yoko stood readjusting himself.

"I'll be in ningenkai. Come visit sometime." He said reverting to his fox form running out the door. Mayumi heard the SDF give chase after him. Mayumi sat helplessly on the bed staring at the wall. It seemed surreal. So very surreal. A moment later she heard a gun shot in the distance and what sounded like a strangled scream. She placed a hand against her heart gathered her clothes and dressed herself.

"He disappeared but wherever he went he's as good as dead anyways." The SDF member said when he returned some time later. Mayumi nodded and walked away. A year passed slowly for Mayumi but it seemed like an eternity. She thought about Yoko's last words to her. How could he be in the ningenkai if he were dead? It didn't make sense. As the months passed Mayumi didn't care any more what became of her. She wished some one would come after her and kill her but this was not the case for she was under Reikai protection and none were foolish enough to dare go against the legendary Mayumi Taisho. She spent her hours in the den she and Yoko had shared for centuries and stared at his bed expecting him to come in as if nothing had happened at all but he did not. Three years nearly passed and Mayumi could bare it no longer. She looked down the cliff to see the waves crashing against the jagged rocks and knew that in a few moments everything would be alright and perhaps she would be with Yoko again wherever he was.
