-1Chapter 7
I was camping for the night, Hiei was asleep laying close to me, I smiled he was lucky that he was cute. I sighed, I began to think. I feared that he will find out the truth. Then if he does then he would hate me for it, for not telling him, his heart will be closed perhaps not even Yukina can heal him. That's what I fear the most, to lose a friend. But on the other hand, if I don't tell him, then he may have a chance to live a happier child hood, where I can protect him, it really seems that we are like brothers, heh I'm such a fool, I can't keep him like this that's what my head is saying but something is telling me different. The way, the path to this answer is clouded, fuzzy and far. I don't know what to do, I never had to deal with this before. How can I?
I looked up at the stars. I don't know, I know I'm being selfish, very. I don't know what to do, my spirit is tore 2 different ways, but which is the right way? I looked at the fire. Perhaps maybe, just maybe this will work out well, I don't know I started to fall asleep. Hiei started to whimper and griped my pant leg, I snapped awake, I was suppose to be on grad no time for sleep. I looked down to the little fire demon. I patted his back gently he clamed down.
"Heheh how cute...a kitsune with a child. You will make a fine meal" a demon said appearing out of no where. I growled "what do you want who are you" I ordered, I picked up Hiei and held him close and tight. The demons step back as the leader, a Tall man with dark blue hair, wolf ears and a tail appeared. This must have been a wolf demon clan. " Hehe what's a pretty fox like you doing here at the wrong place at the wrong time?" he said coldly. I glared" Leave quietly and you live, attack me and die" I said. The demon laughed. "You a worthless fox, can kill me? and my wolfs I don't think so" he said. The wolfs lung at us and twisted my head and my rose whip appeared killing all the wolfs just leavening the leader, Hiei started to wake u"Kurama Nii-san?" he whispered. I smiled" stay still and be quiet" I whispered. I felt him hang on to my shirt.
The wolf Leader eyed us. "Hehheh you still will die, I'm Ruki, " Ruki said putting his hair into a low pony tail. I put Hiei down and he ran and hid behind a tree. Ruki pulled out a leather whip with spikes, I took out my rose whip from my hair. Ruki wasn't look straight at me, I thought, He swung his whip, It was towards Hiei" Hiei Run!" I said Running after him, Hiei was too scared to move, I jumped in the way of the whip as it hit my back I covered Hiei before it hit him. I screamed out in pain. Ruki grined"hehehHEHEheh" he laughed. Hiei was in ters'Kurama Nii-san!" he yelled. I smiled" I'm fine I'll show him a real whip master" I whispered. I swung my whip while he was laughing and cut him in half. He died easily. I fell to the ground my back bleeding badly. Hiei continued to cry"Kurama Nii-san! Kurama-Nii-san!" he yelled. I was dizzy from blood lost. I fell to the ground passed out.
It was hours later, I sat up looking around. I was in a bed? my wound bandage up. Hiei was asleep next to me. I looked around "where are we?" I said. "Your safe if that's what you wanted to know" A voice said in the shadows of the room. mukuro step out of the corner she was in. "Your lucky I was near by, or you would of been killed. " she said. I gave a weak smile" Arigato' I said. Mukuro looked over to Hiei' so what happen to him, why he is like that?" she asked. "Its the Dark Soul Witch, she sent her demons after us, and then change Hiei" I said. Mukuro wide eye for a moment then became calm" I see, Be careful, she is strong perhaps stronger than me, she'll try to trick you as well. " Mukuro warned. I nodded 'I see she is the last of her kind, that's what I heard when I was Youko." I said. Mukuro nodded. "By the way I never thought hiei could be so ...cute when he was young" she said. I sweatdroped"yes yes that's what I said the first time I saw him." I explained. Mukuro sighed "you can leave as soon as Hiei wakes up, I can take you to the boarder of the Ice world, where she lives, but that's all I can do, she is not a demon like you or I, she is something much scarier and rare, I admit I'm afraid to fight her. " Mukuro said. Kurama blinked "she really is strong?" I asked. Mukuro nodded, "yes so be careful, I let a old friend of mine know that your heading that way. He is head of his village, He is a dragon demon, he is a Kind man but also a strong fighter. He will lead you to the crystal mountains, from there your on your own. " She explained. I nodded"alright." I said. This was going to be a hard journey.
