-1Chapter 6
Kurama ran through Makai, searching for a answer. He stopped at his old hide out. He sighed he left there he wasn't sure of what he was doing now. He walked for a while. He enter a village, wondering if he could find info about the Dark Soul Witch. Kurama heard 2 girls talk about her. Kurama walked over to them"Exuse me do you know where the witch lives?" he asked. The girls smiled" your Kurama from the dark tourment, oh yes she lives in the northest part of Makai, its very cold up there, be careful if you are going up there" the girls said. Kurama bowed'Arigato" he said then ran off.
It would be a long journey to the north so I went back to Genkai's to get ready. I walked up the stairs, its been 2 days since I left. Hiei was watching Yusuke fight Genkai when I walked up. Hiei's face brighten"Kurama-Niisan!" he said running over to me. I embrace him"Hey Hiei' I said. Hiei smiled"Your back!" he said. I smiled" yes but I have to leave in a couple of days again, this time I'll be gone for a while, but I promise that I'll be back as soon as I can" Kurama said. Hiei cling to Kurama's waist" no Kurama-Niisan please don't go!" Hiei said crying into me, I gave a small smile" I'm sorry Hiei, I don't want you to come because I don't want you to get hurt, I'll stay here a week with you then I have to go you understand?' I asked. All Hiei did was nod. Yusuke smiled"aww how Kawaii" he said. Genkai sighed then smiled.
Hiei still cried, Kurama smiled and knelt down"Hiei don't worry I won't be gone that long, You can help me, become strong okay, become strong for me" Kurama said. hiei sniffled and nodded. Kurama stood back up
hours later
Kurama laid on his Futon Hiei laying close to him, Kurama smiled then began to think I think, I should leave him like this, he seem so happy, if I find the cure, he will forget about this happiness, this warm feeling, knowing he has someone he can turn to for help someone he can trust, darn it I'm being selfish again Kurama turned to stare at the ceiling. If me being selfish gives him happiness the I'll gladly admit it, I am selfish! I'm a very selfish person! but...should I find the cure, and tell him the truth, he would be broken, he would be hurt, he when he gets back to normal, would hate me, he would hate me his heart will shut and hate the world! he might even hate himself I sighed"Oh God, give me answer, find me a path" I whispered.
((Kurama POV now until the end of the story))
I fell asleep, Morning came and slept pretty well everyone was up before me. I continued to sleep. Hiei walked in and blinked, He poked me on my forehead"Kurama -Nii-san wake up or you will miss lunch" Hiei said. I woke up, my stomach growled, I was half asleep my hair a mess the same old thing every morning...well in this case afternoon. I smiled at Hiei"Mouring" I said. Hiei laughed" its the afternoon, jeez you can really sleep" Hiei said. I smiled" sorry" I said. I got up and walked out of the room into the living room. Yusuke snickerd"nice hair Kurama" Yusuke said. I blinked not fully awake" what are you talking about?" I asked Yusuke smiled"oh nothing, someone is not a mourning person" he said. I sighed . Hours passed and I sat under a sakura tree thinking. I know soon I will have to leave for Makai.
The day came sooner than I wanted, I gave a sigh it was early morning. Genkai was awake. I bowed, "Please look after him" I said. Genkai nodded. I picked up my bag, it seemed a little heavier than I thought it was. I didn't think much about it. I took off running, a portal was made and I jumped through it.. I landed safely in Makai. Genkai sighed. 'Now where can Hiei be?" she said with a smiled watching the portal disappear. I sighed and started to head North, After a few hours of traveling I took a break. I put my bag down and heard a "Ow!" I blinked and opened my bag. My eye twitched, "Hiei!" I yelled. Hiei crawled out, "I'm Sorry Kurama Nii-san. I wanted to come with you!" Hiei said looking down. I sighed " Hiei its dangerous here' I said. Hiei sniffled about to cry " I'm sorry Kurama Nii-san" he said. I smiled' its okay, since you here I'll protect you." I said embracing him tightly" Please don't cry." I said.
