The next morning when Kurama woke up he saw that Hiei was back and he had started a fire for their breakfast. When Hiei noticed that Kurama was awake he pull out a cup and poured him some tea. As he was handing Kurama the cup his cloak sleeve pulled up reveling a long reddish burn running up Hiei's forearm.
"What is this?" Kurama asked him grabbing a hold of Hiei's arm to get a better look.
"It's nothing," Hiei snapped as he pulled his arm away from Kurama.
"No, Hiei, that is not nothing. Now you avoided my questions last night but you are not going to this time," Kurama said as he moved closer to Hiei.
But Hiei just hunched his shoulders and turned away from Kurama. Kurama swallowed a frustrated sigh when he saw Hiei do this. He reached over and grabbed Hiei by the arm and forced him to turn and face him.
"Hiei, just tell me what is going on. I don't want to see you hurting yourself," Kurama told in a soft voice as he leaned closer to him.
Finally Hiei looked up at him, and what Kurama saw in his eyes made the breath catch in his throat.
"What's wrong, Hiei, what's going on?" Kurama asked him again.
"Fine, that worm is a drug to some demons. It has been a few years since I have seen one I had thought that I had gotten over my addication of them, but seeing it last night just brought out all of the craving again," Hiei said in a voice that almost said that he was ashamed to be telling Kurama something like this to him.
"Oh," Kurama said as he tried to think of what to say to Hiei, but he could think of nothing that would help him so he did the only thing that came to mind, he wrapped his arms around him and gave him a hug. At first Hiei stiffened but as he grew use to the touch he relaxed in Kurama's embrace. They sat there for what seemed like forever before they heard sounds of somebody waking up. They quickly pulled apart before they were caught in a position neither one of them felt like explaning.
By time Yuusuke got around to looking up Kurama and Hiei were a respective able distance apart.
"Good morning, Kurama, Hiei," Yuusuke said as he stretched and let out a loud yawn.
"Morning," Kurama said as he looked up from where he was taking out their food for cooking. Hiei just grunted as he went about doing what ever he had been doing. When Yuusuke came back from doing his morning routine Kuwabara was still sleeping, so he walked over to him and was about to wake him a very violent way when Kurama told him to leave him alone that he would wake Kuwabara up. Yuusuke gave him a shocked looked when he noticed Hiei looking at him. Oh, so that's how Kurama knew what he was going to do.
Kurama got up and walked over to Kuwabara, "Kuwabara, it's time to get up," he said him as he nudged him with his foot, Kuwabara just rolled over to his other side and kept on sleeping.
"It's going to take more than that to wake him up," Hiei told him.
"I see, well then it is a good thing that he has use here to watch his back, then isn't it," Kurama said as he pulled a seed from his hair. When Yuusuke gave him a puzzled look Kurama just shook his head and motioned for him to watch. Kurama grew to plant out and let it move slowly around Kuwabara's arms and legs gently lifting him up and then he grew them out farther, so that he could get him to the stream. But instead of dropping him into the water Kurama turned his wrist, so that Kuwabara was upside down before he lowered him slowly toward the water. The sound of running water so close to his head must of woken him up because he came to just before his hair hit the water.
"What the heck is going on?" Kuwabara shouted when he noticed the position that he was in. When he saw who was holding him he got even more offended..
"Oi, what are you doing, Kurama, I thought you were better than playing petty tricks on people?" Kuwabara asked as he was lowered to the ground.
"Gomen, Kuwabara, but I was just wanting to show you that even though you are surrounded by friends, and you were hurt last night you still need to keep your guard up," Kurama told him as he helped him up off the ground.
"Your right, Kurama," Kuwabara said as he looked at the ground in shame, "But I am trying, so thank you I will try to do better."
Kurama nodded as he turned to go back to their camp leaving Kuwabara on the shore to think about what he had said. Hiei looked disappointed that he did not see Kuwabara dropped into the water but he said nothing. Kuwabara walked back to camp looking at his hand trying to see if it had gotten worst, but he couldn't tell. Kurama noticed him looking at his hand and he motioned for him to step closer, so he could looked at it.
"It looks much better, Kuwabara," he told him, "but tell me, did you get any kind of weird reaction from the bite?" Hiei gave Kurama a startled look before he quickly looked away, he could not believe that Kurama would ask such a question after what he had told him this morning. Kuwabara did not notice this exchange, because he was looking at his hand.
"Nope, the only thing that I felt was pain, why?" he asked as he looked back at Kurama.
"No reason I was just wondering," Kurama told him waving it off as curiosity.
Yuusuke had however noticed Hiei looking at Kurama and there did seemed to be some sort of strange vibes he was getting from the two of them, but he decided that the best course of action would be to ignore it for now and ask them about it later. Yuusuke turned to helping Hiei get breakfast ready so they could leave as soon as possible.
When everybody was ready to go they gathered up all their stuff making sure that there was nothing left behind to give away their presence to anyone that happened by. As they were walking through the forest Hiei fell farther back from everybody hoping that Kurama would get the hint and join him, because he did not feel like asking him to do it. Kurama had figured that Hiei would want to talk to him after the comment he had made to Kuwabara, so he had been waiting for the signal from him. When Kurama feel back with him Hiei looked up at him.
"I'm sorry if I made you mad by asking Kuwabara that question this morning, but I was curious to see if the worm would have the same effect on humans that it does on demons," Kurama told Hiei looking straight ahead.
"Hn, I guess it is a valid point, but they well start to wonder if you ask to many questions," Hiei said.
"Yeah, your right, after all I don't need it to get back to my mother that I was asking about the effects drugs have on people. After all I'm already on her watch list I don't need her to think that I'm thinking of taking drugs. But I don't think that Yuusuke and Kuwabara connected my asking about the affects the worm had on Kuwabara to that of a drug."
Hiei said nothing just looked to where Yuusuke and Kuwabara where examining a strange purple plant.
"Kurama, I think you need to go hold their hands or something because they are about to get eaten by that plant," Hiei told Kurama nodding toward the pair.
Kurama looked to where Hiei indicated and let out a surprised gasp," Yuusuke, don't touch that," he called out as he hurried over to them. While Kurama was lecturing them about the importance of having knowledge about something before you touch it, Hiei took to the trees to scout ahead for potential danger.
"Does it fell weird to any one else?" Yuusuke asked as he looked around the gloomy forest.
"What do you mean?" Kurama said as he too looked around. He could sense that something was not right, but he wanted to make sure that he was not the only one.
"Well it seems like something is pressing in on me making want to run this place as fast as I can," Yuusuke told him as he rubbed his arms.
"I know what you mean," Kuwabara said as he stepped closer to Kurama.
"It seems that we have stepped into some demon's territory, and they don't want us to be here."
"In that case why don't we just move on," Kuwabara said.
"First lets make sure that it is not the demon that we are looking for," Kurama reminded him.
"Right," Kuwabara said with a sheepish laugh. They spread out and looked around the area but they weren't able to find any thing, so they moved on.
The deeper they walked into the Maka forest it became clear that something was not right there was a strange energy lingering in the air that they could not place. It was not the energy that they encountered before but something different, something that they could not place.
"Where's Hiei?" Yuusuke asked when he realized that the little demon was not with them.
"He went to look ahead, and see if he could spot the demon or any potential enemies," Kurama told him as he ducked under a low hanging branch. They were getting farther into the forest and it seemed like something was waiting for them, but none of them could sense anything.
Hiei frowned as he looked over the forest with his jagan eye, he couldn't see anything but he knew that there was something was waiting for them. Hiei closed his eye and went down to meet with the rest of his team to see if they had been able to find anything since he could not. When he got back to where his team mates were it was to find that they had had no luck either.
"Well what so we, do we keep walking in this direction or do we try a different direction?" Yuusuke asked Kurama.
"Lets just keep going the way we are going, With the energy we are picking up we should stumble upon something eventually," Kurama told him. Yuusuke nodded and kept walking.
Although they were expecting to find something what they did find came as a complete shock. They had stumbled upon the remains of a half eaten decomposing body of a human. It seemed that they were to late the demon had succeeded in his plans to get into the human world.
"Damn it if he got into the human world why did he drag it back here to eat it?" Yuusuke shouted as he tried to keep his breakfast from making a return visit.
"It seems that he did not fell comfortable in the human world so he drug his prey back here to eat it in peace," Kurama said.
"We have to find this thing before it can hurt any body else," Kuwabara said trying to keep from looking at the gruesome site.
Everyone of them, execpt Hiei, had felt a moment of panic, because they had people in the human world that they wanted to protect. When Yuusuke got over his shock he pulled out his com unit to contact Koenma to let him know of the latest devlopements. When Koenma heard the news he told them that he was sending Boton to pick them up, but only when they got back to the human world.
this was looked over but we might have missed some mistakes.
