I had already written this chapter but when I read the reviews I rewrote the end. Thanks to ss-dragon-lady I realized I wrote Hiei too soft and accepting. Very un-Hiei-like. I don't want anyone to think Hiei's mean though, he's just worried. I'm not sure anyone will like what I did here but it's only temparary and I had fun so let me know. Thank you to all who read and especially to those who paid the ransom for this chapter with a review.

/Dormant aspect speaking to current aspect./
Chapter 5

The sun was high in the Maiki sky when Hiei woke, sensing the return of his family. He was too tired to even open his eyes. Kurama had been virtually insatiable last night, not to mention all yesterday. The Youko had gotten Shina, Yokuro and Hiro to go to the fortress for an overnight visit, then set out to make love every way they could and every where they could.

They made love in the tree house and the den. On the beds, chairs, tables and floor. In the forest, the yard and the stream. Both Yoko and Shuuichi were very demanding in pursuit of their pleasure both giving and receiving. So Hiei and Kuronue spent the day and night taking turns seeing to their lover's every desire till they all fell into an exhausted sleep.

Hiei could feel the Youko's tail caressing his leg. His bare back and behind snuggled against the fire demon's side as he slept. Without opening his eyes Hiei turned to put his arm around Kurama. He slid his hand across his mates smooth stomach and up to his chest. He nuzzled his face into long soft hair as his hand cupped his mates firm round breast.

Hiei's eye snapped open. 'BREAST!'

If it was possible Hiei's eyes got even wider when Kurama moaned then grabbed his hand, guiding it down between his legs. When Hiei's hand failed to wrap itself around its usual target Kurama curiously opened his eyes to look down at himself.

Taking note of two full round breasts and lack of male equipment he quickly sat up and looked at Hiei. With wide eyes and a furious blush Kurama swished his silver tail across his lap as he snatched the sheet from the foot of the bed to cover himself. "Oh Anari, what the hell have I done."

"Kurama?" He watched as Hiei hesitantly reached out a hand to caress his hair. "What the hell's going on?"

Looking at the hair in his lover's hand, Kurama reached for a mirror from the table by the bed. Gazing back at him were large green eyes. Soft feminine features were framed by red hair with long silver streaks and cute silver Youko ears peeked out the top.

Kurama closed his eyes, concentrated his energy and tried to change into either his Youko or human form. Splitting pain made him grab his head and abandon the effort. He looked up at the concern on Hiei's face. "It's alright Hiei-Koi. Let me get dressed and I'll try to explain."

The Youko rose only to fall back on the bed as nausea and dizziness overtook him. "Kurama!" Hiei helped him lie down. "Don't move, I'll be right back."

Hiei flitted to the den. "Yokuro, go get Yukina. Something's wrong with Kurama."

Hiei flitted back to the tree house. Yokuro ran out of the den as Shina instructed Hiro to play in his room, then using her psychokinetic powers, disappeared from the den only to reappear in the tree house a second behind Hiei. Unsure, she looked at the Youko on the bed. "Mama? Is that you?"

Kurama sat up still clutching the sheet as Shina sat on the edge of the bed. "Yeah, Little Fox it's me. I'm alright, just a bit dizzy and nauseous when I try to get up."

Kurama blushed but allowed her to reach out and peek under the sheet. "That looks like a little more than dizzy and nauseous to me."

Hiei knew he should give them privacy but was unwilling to leave his mate. He moved to the window and watched for Yokuro's return.

/Hey Hiei, turn around. That gorgeous creature over there is our Foxie-Kitten. Did you see those incredible breasts.../ Hiei mentally slapped the Chimera. /Not now Kuro/

By the time Yokuro flew in with Yukina, Shina had helped Kurama dress and the two were whispering and giggling on the bed.

Hiei went to his sister as Yokuro set her down at the entrance to the tree house. "Yukina, something's wrong with my Fox."

Concerned, Yukina rushed to the bed only to break out in giggles as she looked at the blushing, silver, red and obviously female, Youko on the bed. "Oh my! Kurama what have you done?"

Yokuro joined Hiei and watched as Kurama, Yukina and Shina whispered back and forth. Yukina then examined Kurama, placing her hand first over his forehead, chest and then stomach. There were more whispers, giggles and then hugs. Hiei and Yokuro were very confused.

Yukina rose from the bed. "Shina, Yokuro we'd better go get ready. The rest of the family should be here any minute. Everyone was still at the fortress when Yokuro came rushing in, only saying something was wrong with Kurama."

Yukina would have left but she felt Hiei take her arm. "Yukina, what's wrong with my Fox?"

She smiled and kissed her brother's cheek. "Don't worry Hiei, he… she… Kurama's just fine. I think maybe you two need to have a little chat though."

As the others left Hiei turned to his mate. Kurama was biting his lip, his ears lay back flat and his head was down. Shyly he peeked up at Hiei through his bangs. "Hiei-Koi, will you sit with me?"

When Hiei sat on the bed facing him Kurama reached out to touch him only to draw his hand back. Hiei knew Kurama was unsure he would accept the touch but wasn't ready to reassure his mate just yet. "Kurama, is this your doing or someone else's."

Kurama looked down at his hands. The tone in Hiei's voice told him that his mate was not happy. "No Hiei, I did this to myself but it wasn't supposed to be like this."

Hiei's eyes couldn't help but lower to where Kurama gestured to his breasts. "Kurama, I still don't even know what this is."

Kurama smiled at his innocent little fire demon. Mad or not he was still cute. "I think you can guess that I'm female Hiei."

When Hiei only growled Kurama tried to explain. "I've been working on something for a while now. This was to be a wonderful surprise for you and Kuro."

Hiei tried very hard to remain calm. "You wanted to become a female for us?"

With a weak smile Kurama continued. "Not exactly. I've been doing research for years. I ran hundreds of tests. I checked and rechecked all the ingredients. There was only one part I couldn't do on my own so I enlisted the help of someone I could trust. Everything worked just like I planned… with one unexpected side effect."

"Side effect! You still haven't told me what the original plan was!" Hiei was losing his patients.

Kurama was starting to get nervous. "Before I tell you, I need to know if you still love me Hiei, even like this? I know you're mad…"

Hiei interrupted him. "Of course I love you Fox! In any form and now any sex, you belong to me! Mad however doesn't even begin to cover what I feel right now. What the hell were you thinking? You're safety is more important to me than anything and you risked that for a stupid experiment. What kind of hair-brained scheme were you working on that back fired and turned you into a damn female?"

Hiei barely heard his mate's sad, littleresponse. "I'm pregnant."
