Chapter 2: The Game of the Clown

"Well where would you hide if you were a clown who was humiliated in front of a large group by an old woman?" Hiei turned back to ask Kurama.

"Well Hiei, when he gave me the first potion to obtain my yoko form, I planted a small seed underneath the skin of his arm, I know my seeds, and where they are at all times. Hence I know where Suzuka is, and it would appear he is still on this island, but I would like to know why..." Kurama didn't voice his concern but Hiei sensed it was there and did not need to ask. Hiei suddenly slowed his fast pace to allow Kurama to catch up with him. "He is in that forest over there, we should take caution, he could still be a threat." Hiei then turned to his companion; the fog was drifting in between them, as if to try to keep them apart. Kurama could barely see through the fog, which was so palpable it could cover you as a blanket. Yet he could still see the fire apparition's eyes, which shone through the fog as bright as, well, fire.

"Hmmpph, I thought you were the intelligent one Kurama, if Suzuka could still be a threat to us why would you have him fix up a potion for you? It seems you have been hanging around that detective to much and your brain is now as fried as his is." The fog seemed to lessen, because the kitsune demon, Kurama could now see his partner. He just offered a small smile and a few words of his own.

"But there is a chance he will help us, help me. And if there is a chance you should take it, no matter how small it is, because what if that chance could have been the right one? You will not know unless you try. Take from me, this was my theory when I was a thief, and it almost always worked in my favor. So let us go, to Suzuka." Kurama smiled his smile again, and stepped into the darkened forest.

!#$%&()

"Damn its dark in here, it reminds me of where I used to train..." Hiei was looking around the dark forest, taking in his surroundings, and searching for any strong sense of renki, the renki of the clown, Suzuka. Suzuka had given them trouble during the tournament and Hiei believed that if you were once a problem you could always be a problem.

Kurama pulled out a seed which sprouted into a golden colored flower, which had started to glow as soon as it bloomed. It did little to light the expansive forest, in fact it just made the shadows of the trees even larger, making the area around the two demons bright with light, but darkened every thing else.

"Turn thirty degrees to your right Hiei. He should be there." Hiei suddenly spun around to the spot Kurama told him and sure enough, something could be heard disturbing the under brush. Suzuka stumbled out of the darkened tangled mass of trees and fell on his face. His right arm had some strange markings upon them. Hiei kicked the unconscious clown demon.

"Damn fool." He leaned over to check the peculiar markings upon the unconscious demon's arm, where under closer inspection; he had realized the markings were actually vines, which sprouted from his shoulder, spread down to his wrist, where it was wrapped so tightly that Suzuka's hand was a violent shade of purple. "What the hell is that, Kurama? I thought all you wanted to do was track him, not make him lose his arm." Kurama stared at the fallen demon, and frowned.

"This should have never happened, it was only meant to be a tracer. The only way for this to happen was he must have sensed it and tried to remove it, the forced removal would crack the shell on the seed and it would take root on the host." Hiei just looked at him.

"Well I don't mind letting scum like this die, but you had better remove that damn plant of yours before he does. It is the only way to get the potion you so desire." Kurama bent down and held his hands over the fallen demon's shoulder, where the started to glow a mellow green color, but it grew more vibrant with each passing moment. Through the light of the energy pulsing from Kurama's hand, you could see the shadows of the three demons that were trespassing in the woods. You could also see the vines retreating up Suzuka's arm and pulling into a hole near the shoulder. After the vines had disappeared, there was a soft popping noise, and the seed that had once made his home in Suzuka's arm had popped out of his arm and into the air. With lighting fast reflexes Kurama had caught the seed ad tucked it behind his belt.

"Show off." Hiei walked to a nearby tree to lean on, while Kurama was trying to wake the unconscious clown, who now happened to start to drool... When the clown demon had finally came to, jumped up away from Kurama, and stared at him with lethal intent.

"I can't believe you actually tried to kill me, the Beautiful Suzuka!! And after I had helped you at the dark tournament!" Kurama looked at the clown oni (demon, I think...)

"No you have it all wrong Suzuka I..." but Kurama was interrupted.

"It is the Beautiful Suzuka to you."

"Yes sorry, You are wrong, Beautiful Suzuka..." Kurama looked up at the demon for permission to continue what he was saying, for he did not want to offend him and lose all hope of becoming his yoko form again. The Beautiful Suzuka smiled and nodded his head with approval. "You are wrong Beautiful Suzuka, because it was only meant to be a tracer. Do you think that if I had wanted to kill you I would have done so?" Suzuka just laughed.

"It would seem you overestimate your self, and underestimate me... I am not as weak as you think, that old hag just caught me on a bad day..." and he started to grumble things about the tournament. "But any way, this isn't about my strength, this is about you and your yoko form is it not." Kurama was shocked at what the clown had knew, and his facial expression was a give away to how Kurama felt. "Yes you want to know how I knew. Right?" Kurama looked at him, with the shocked expression still on his face.

"Yes I would, please elaborate for me." The Beautiful Suzuka just smiled.

"Well once you have a taste of power you always want more... and I can help you out, but you have to help me..." Kurama stood transfixed, on the eyes the clown, which seemed to hypnotize him...

"Yes of course, any thing you say for that potion."

"Good, I have a few... errands I want you to complete, to see if you will be strong enough to handle the side effects of the potion, but I will tell you more after we get out of this creepy forest. Damn I've got the shivers!!" And the two demons walked away.

A darkened figure stepped out from among the shadows of the trees. "Hmmph, you better not cheat us Suzuka or your head will be on a spike for all eternity in front of my house where I can watch it rot. If you hurt my kitsune, you are dead." And then he followed the demons out of the forest.
