Chapter Eleven; 1 Day Left
Sara was a quiet girl. She never spoke to anyone unless they spoke to her first.
One day Sara sat outside on a bench covered in slight vines and surrounded by bright crimson flowers. Her black hair shone in the sun and blew gently with the breeze as her sky blue eyes skimmed the bush of lemon flowers set in front of her.
Kyo walked out of the building and stared at her sitting there. In Kyo's eyes she was the most beautiful thing on earth.
Kyo slowly approached her and he kissed her fervently. Sara returned the kiss.
Later Sara decided to clean the top most room of the building. While she was up there she began to clean (duh).
Nanashi walked into the room and saw her crouching there by a box. A look of surprise crossed both their faces.
"Um…Hello?" Sara said.
Nanashi still stared and then he smiled.
"Hello," Nanashi said in reply.
"What're you doing?" He asked smiling.
"Cleaning," Sara calmly returned.
Then they both started a conversation about cleaning and the best way to do it.
But unbeknownst to them a pair of amber eyes watched them from afar with jealousy and hatred. And soon they would strike.
Kurama was having severe mood swings. Youko had begun coming out to take care of Suiichi, coming out more and more often while Suiichi slept away his worries.
One day Suiichi could be awake and be aware of people and their situation and other days he would stare off into the sky. He would mumble things to himself every now and then, and the basically everyone thought he had gone crazy and they sympathized with him and some even envied.
Whenever Shippo had a problem he went to Hiei and Sesshoumaru-sama. They usually took care of it.
Youko had become friends with everyone because of his appearing so often.
Secrets were revealed to everyone and they still had no clue what the question or answer was.
Yusuke and Kuwabara still were in denial but they were slowly accepting it. The meeting had helped them to realize their situation and to try and brace themselves for the next day and what might happen.
Sara had been cleaning all day long in the room. She was very tired of cleaning and so she decided that she was just going to finish the room.
She was almost done when someone ran into the room, grabbed her and in the process pushed her up against the furthest wall.
Sara's hand grasped and clawed at the hands that held her throat hostage tightly in their grasp.
Sara looked deep into Umasuki's eyes and Sara's eyes filled with terror. Umasuki squeezed harder and Sara let out a strangled noise.
"Stay away from him!" Umasuki screamed in Sara's face.
"You can't have him!" She continued.
A couple tears fell from Sara's eyes and Umasuki's grasp lightened considerably but she was still chocking Sara.
And then Kyo burst into the room, when he saw the sight that lay before him worry flooded his face and he ran forward.
Kyo pried Umasuki's hands off Sara's neck. Sara gasped for breath and took a deep breath.
Kyo picked her up and glared at Umasuki. Umasuki sat in the corner staring at her hands suddenly a look of horror struck her face.
"What…have I done?" She asked herself still staring at her hands with a look of terror.
"I…I," She mumbled.
Then she looked up at Kyo who stood before her.
"Please…forgive me…Kyo," Umasuki trailed off as tears slid down her face.
Kyo's eyes only hardened and he walked out the door as Sara buried her face in Kyo's chest and Umasuki covered her face with her hands her body convulsing as she sobbed.
That's how Umasuki learned the error of her ways.
No one had said or done anything really productive all day long. Kurama's pupils were dilated and he was sweating profusely and he also was extremely jumpy and panicky.
Very unKuramalike. Kurama's mumbling had gotten even more incoherent. All the children stayed away from him because they didn't know whether he was dangerous or not.
The group was undoubtedly tired of each other and being in this position. Their P.O.V's had changed and so had their outlooks on life.
For almost all it had darkened. Everyone in the house was freezing.
The house had been the same temperature all day long. It was 63 Degrees Fahrenheit.
Everyone was cold and had to stay together to try and keep warm. Hiei didn't have a problem because he could warm himself up with his demonic powers.
Youko helped Suiichi. Still there was a tension in the room that made them sweat, even though the temperature was so low.
Still the group's scars grew bigger, longer, and more grotesque. Sango's had made bracelets and were now getting fatter.
Literally they were all scared deeply.
Kurama stayed hidden in a corner of the room, Hiei walked over and talked to him. He heard Kurama mumble something.
"You're scared," Hiei told Kurama.
"We all are," He continued.
"I'm not scared of tomorrow! I'm only scared of myself!" Kurama screamed.
Hiei pitied him. Then Kurama passed out.
Little did they know in all Kurama's craziness he was closer to the question then any of them ever thought.
