Well chapter 11 is here, and I am not going to put what I wanted in my author's note, so I won't offend anyone... its not bad, just diabolically evil... HAHAHAHAhah... -laughter fades out-

"I have a wife?! I have kids?!" Pat (sleep talking)

Chapter Eleven:

Hiei lunged toward the fox demon, grabbing for his katana, but getting nothing but a fist full of air. "Damn it! It's broken!" Hiei and the beast finally met in the center of the hall, grappling with each other.

!#$&()

Kurama let out a scream as his body was constricted by the black, serpent like demon. The kitsune broke free of the serpent's hold, just to be barraged by its wild thrusts of its tails. Kurama grabbed one of the tails, and with a mighty jerk, snapped it back...

!#$&()

Hiei howled in pain as the giant fox bit his hand and snapped his wrist as if it was a dry twig in the hands of a giant. Hiei now had to fight one handed. Which meant he would have to take this match a little more seriously, and end it once and for all...

!#$&()

Kurama jumped back as he saw the snake demon hesitate, after losing use of one of its two tails. The serpent hissed, flung out its un-broken tail as a large black blast shot out the tip...

!#$&()

"DRAGON OF THE DARKNESS FLAME!" The dragon of fire rushed at the demon fox with inconceivable speed, yet the demon managed to doge it by wrapping its legs around a beam in the ceiling...

!#$&()

Kurama was able to doge the blast at the last instant by grabbing a beam from the ceiling. The kitsune looked down towards the marble floor, where the demon serpent waited for his demise. Underneath the serpent, reflected on the polished marble floor stood Hiei's reflection. Kurama blinked in disbelief, and when his eyes finally opened, the black serpent had vanished; replacing him was none other than Hiei.

"HIEI! IT'S ME KURAMA!" Hiei just stared at the yoko, as if he didn't understand what he had said...

!#$&()

"Damn, it dodged my best, gonna have to beat him the hard way! ARGGHH!" Hiei continued his assault on the demon fox that was just standing there. The black haired youkai threw punches as fast as he could, but none actually landed as the fox seemed to take a more defensive side to the battle.

!#$&()

"HIEI STOP! ITS ME!" Kurama tried to talk to the rampaging youkai but had no chance for he was still under the spell of the hall of illusions. Hiei jumped back to take a breath after his tiring attack. "If only there was some way I could make him see, if I could make him look..." Just then a sudden idea came to mind. "DEMI! Come here, I require your assistance..."

!#$&()

"What the hell is that fox doing?" Hiei stared at the demon who was barking to the small bluish imp. The imp suddenly flew at Hiei with a sudden burst of speed, laughing all the while. "Gah!" the black haired youkai ducked down at the last minute, preventing the imp to impale him with his tiny fork.

Hiei ignoring the imp behind him, rushed forward to attack the demon fox, but at the last moment felt a sharp pain in his back. Behind him the imp just laughed evilly...

!#$&()

"Good job Demi!" Hiei encouraged his impish partner on. "Now make him look towards the floor!" Hiei's head suddenly jerked downwards as the imp's magic influenced his body.

!#$&()

(Ahh I can't control my body!) That's what the black haired youkai came to think as his head was forced down due to the imp's magic. As his head was forced down, Hiei saw underneath the fox, the reflection of the very person he was trying to rush to, Kurama. Instantly the demon fox transformed into the very image of the reflection. "Kurama! But how?" Hiei was still rendered immobile, due to the imp's fork in his back.

"Well Hiei, this is the hall of illusions is it not? Demi enough let him go." The imp replied.

"But he tried to hurt you master..." Kurama gave the small demon a small smile.

"It's ok Demi; we were under a spell, so we would fight each other." Hiei stared at the imp as it retreated to its master's side.

"Who or what the hell is that?" Kurama frowned at his partner's lack of respect.

"I could ask the same of you, Hiei..." the yoko pointed to the unconscious Belmont and the ghost of Jonathan Harker. The dragon turned and walked away from the kitsune demon and his imp.

"Point taken, lets get outta this hell hole..." Kurama looked at the unconscious figure.

"What about the holy water?" Hiei held up the bottle as he continued to walk on. Kurama looked down again to the lump on the floor. (We can't leave him here, the demons will swarm him in no time...) so he grabbed the Belmont and followed his partner down the hall.

"Well guys it's been fun! But I'm gonna go finish my dance now..." Jonathan called out to the departing demons, and then left through the wall. Kurama finally managed to catch up with the fast paced youkai, Demi hung not far behind.

"Hiei, what's wrong?" the black haired youkai suddenly stopped and turned to the curious kitsune. Tears shone in his bright red eyes.

"You want to know what's wrong? I thought you were dead! So I hurried to get the second ingredient so I could get you out of the castle but, damn Casper took me the damn scenic route! And then I almost killed you, thinking I was being attacked by a fox!" Hiei couldn't bear any more and broke down crying into Kurama's chest as the yoko held him close in a one armed hug.

"Shhh, it's going to be all right Hiei." The fire apparition's breathing was starting to stabilize when Kurama asked. "How's your hand?" Hiei stepped away from the kitsune and offered a small smile.

"I've had worse..." Kurama gave his lover his special smile.

"Come; let us leave this castle, all of us." With that said. Hiei, Kurama, carrying Julius Belmont, and Demi, made there way back to the room with the portal, back to the shrine.

Well that is it! Finally no more Castlevania! That really ticked me off, I never wanted to do that. Well a crossover anyway... I almost wish Hiei killed Kurama though, so I would be done with this story, but I have no control over them. They do.... Grrr... oh well, trust me though.

SPOILER WARNING!!!: remember what I said in the first author's note? Well trust me, it still going to be in here trust me.....
