"Well, I think your wounds will heal now that you've been clean up." Said Kenichi as he sat at his desk.
Reiji swinged his legs over the side of the couch and grabbed his stomach. He could still feel the bleeding threw the bandages. " Thank you Kenichi, Kippei, but I must go. I thought it over and I must talk to my brother myself. Would you just do one thing for me though?"
" What is it? You know we got your back." Said Kippei resting his head on the corner of the couch looking at the others.
" Would you keep Topaz company for awhile." Said Reiji
"Leave that up to me. Kenichi can stay here and monitor things from his computer and I'll go kick some ass." Said Kippei picking up his sword and swinging it around.
Reiji and Kenichi laughed. " Okay you go do that." said Kenichi. " Let me see," he slid to his computer and started typing things on it. " Okay, got everything covered. See." He turned the monitor around and showed them a video of the room they were just in now. "I'll watch everything from here, and guide you if you need it. So wear this." Kenichi handed Kippei a small earpiece and mic. "Tell me if you can hear my voice."
"Got you loud and clear." Said Kippei giving him thumbs up.
"Okay, I'll see you guys later then." With that Reiji ran out of the room headed to Shizuro. Kippei ran out as well to get things started with Topaz.
I can't believe everything that's happening the jewel of Thiele being in Tsume, Yoko taking it for himself while claiming to be Kurama. (Sighs) Can't I just have a normal life
"Where are we're going. I don't think I can walk any further." Asked Chiisuteru slumping against a wall.
Yoko turned towards her " We're hiding from Yusuke and the others." He said.
" Yeah, I know that, but can't you just let them find you. I mean, they won't do anything wrong." Said Chiisuteru looking at him. Besides they could bring Kurama back.
"You're talking nonsense if they find me they will certainly try bringing my other self back, but then again they can't do anything about brining him back only you can."
Chiisuteru looked up at him raising a brow. "What does that mean? Didn't you say you weren't going to tell me?"
He smiled and saunter his why up to her while tenderly stroking her cheek. " Only you can release him." His breath was warm against her face.
"And how do I do that." She asked in a whisper. Afraid to raise her voice any louder from fear of his answer.
"Ease his deep desire for you" he said into her ear "threw me."
She looked over at him. "How do I do that?" she asked
"You must kiss me passionately. Of course there were the times I as Kurama already kissed you, but those were without your consent."
I remember now so that dream really wasn't a dream.
" I can't believe what you are saying is right." She murmured
" It is, so go on and save him already." Said Yoko leaning right in front of her.
She looked him over and then pushed him away. " No way! I have no idea if that's even right. For all I know you just want to get some. I'm not doing it." She crossed her arms over her chest.
Yoko just shook his head. " Whatever you want. Till you do it, he will never come back. Let's continue our walk. You already rested."
" Damn that fox for getting his way." Murmured Hiei.
" Look guys, I know if we don't find Kurama soon he'll end up killing someone, but we can't forget about the princess either." Said Kuwabara.
" Of course, of course, but at the moment we can't do anything but follow. God I'm so pissed." Stated Yusuke throwing a punch into the wall.
" Urameshi! Will be spotted." Yelled Kuwabara holding his arm back while Yusuke tried getting another throw in.
" Anything is better than doing this." He claimed.
" You got your wish." Replied Hiei as a group of men came running out from one of the corridors towards them.
"Good, now I can relieve some stress." Stated Yusuke turning to the groups of goons and cracking his knuckles.
" Okay, Topaz where the hell did you go?" Kippei looked around the office and saw the cluttered mess wrecked in ashes. " Kenichi, where he go."
" I don't know it's as if he has passed by my security. I'll keep looking." Said Kenichi threw his earpiece.
"Okay, I will too."
"Shizuro!" yelled Reiji while slamming his fist into the door. " Open up!"
There was a quite pause and then footsteps and the door slowly opened. " Reiji, what do you want?" he asked angrily.
" It's Topaz, brother we must do something." Reiji tried grabbing onto his shoulders but Shizuro threw him aside.
" Don't be silly, I told you I didn't want to here about that." He looked at his brother clutching his stomach and still persisting on.
" But Topaz is going to kill you." Reiji said wearily. He slowly tried standing up but clearly his wound wasn't healed and he fell. Shizuro ended up catching him.
"What's wrong with you?" He looked over at his hand on his stomach and saw blood showing threw his shirt.
"What happen? Reiji." He took him to the bed very worried.
" I told you Topaz is trying to."
Shizuro looked at his brother he was silent. " What…….Reiji…….what's wrong." Reiji can only glare over his shoulder at the doorway. Shizuro turned around and saw Topaz standing there.
"Don't listen to him Prince. He is not well as you see. Here let me examine him." He walked over towards Shizuro and Reiji.
"What, tell me what's going? Reiji." He said looking over him.
Reiji couldn't move. Topaz grew closer and he felt he was under a spell. " It's okay." He said leaning towards him and pushing Shizuro away. " Everything will be over rather quickly."
" Topaz, what are you doing." Said Shizuro. Topaz was quite and ignore him while drawing out from underneath his coat a knife the size of a kodachi.
"Topaz put that away!" yelled Shizuro.
Topaz ignored him and said "Good bye." And then thrusted the knife it into Reiji chest.
" NO! What the hell are you doing!" He pushed him aside and went to his brother. His wound was deep and blood was dripping out like a leaky facet.
Reiji was quite and then said, " Topaz …(coughs) will kill you too. Run, please."
"No, I won't leave Reiji. I'm sorry for not listening, for ignoring you." Said Shizuro.
Reiji smiled warmly as he slowly closed his eyes.
" Argh, that hurt!" yelled Chiisuteru who fell on the ground. She was walking behind Yoko who suddenly stopped. " What's wrong?"
" Someone has just passed away." He said calmly.
" It wasn't Yusuke, Hiei, or Kuwabara, right?"
Yoko turned to her. "No, I can still feel their presence this is someone else. I believe someone of great power."
They walk passed the next corridor and it was then they saw a sight of blood.
" HOW DARE YOU BETRAY ME? AND KILL MY BROTHER!"
" Hahahaha…. Getting angry now it's not going to help you."
Chiisuteru saw someone thrown out of the hallway Shizuro what is he doing?
"You think you can defeat me now. You have no one on your side." Yelled Topaz walking out of the room. " Ah, what do we have here."
Yoko placed himself in front of Chiisuteru. " Just visitors passing threw."
"Princess. You mustn't be here. You'll be in harm." Explained Shizuro.
Chiisuteru felt a little sorry for the prince. In the state he was in now, it wasn't looking like he would live any longer. She ran towards him pushing by Yoko, who glared evilly at both him and Topaz.
"You will be okay don't worry. "she said resting his head on her knees.
"I never meant for it to happen the death of my brother. He's gone. My only family is gone now; maybe it's okay for me to die as well so that we can all be together." Mother, Father, and now Reiji.
"How arrogant are you to think that way, but all the better me. Do you want to know something funny dear prince? It was I who killed your beloved parents. I killed them and I killed your brother too, all that's left is you." Said Topaz walking over towards Shizuro and Chiisuteru.
"Stay away, don't get near her." Said Yoko.
"What will you do you stupid looking fool. I've had this planned for years. I slaved being a servant and now I shall be King and you nor anyone else shall stop me."
"Never have I had such scum talk to me as you have." And with Yoko's quick movements he went behind Topaz and sliced him with his Rosewhip. He fell to the ground not saying another word.
Shizuro yelled coughing up blood. " HE WAS TO BE DELT BE ME! HE KILLED MY FAMILY."
"He's died now, so you can just rest." Said Yoko.
Shizuro fell onto Chiisu's lap. I want to die. I want to see them "Princess," he whispered. "Please I'm sorry for taking you hostage and causing all this trouble. If there was one thing that I didn't lie about to you was being in love. I really do love you and I'm sorry that I can't be here to treasure it. I want to see them again. My family." He coughed up more blood.
Chiisuteru was quite. His family was killed. I'm so sorry. She glanced up at Yoko. "Can you do something to save him?"
"No, all I can do is this." He went up to him and was ready to strangle him to death.
"Stop, Yoko! Please." she looked down at Shizuro's pale face as he smiled. "It's okay, I'll be fine." Then he went into a slumber of eternal sleep.
"Come, let's leave them." Said Yoko grabbing Chiisuteru by her arm.
She couldn't move. She felt terrible someone she knew had just died even if he was a rotten person who couldn't express his feelings she felt so sorry for him. She looked into the room in front of her and saw the younger prince Reiji lying dead on the floor.
"Why," she whispered, "why did they have to die like that? Why" she started crying unable to hold back. If no one was to cry for them she would.
Yoko pulled her up into the comfort of his arms. "It's sad when people die, but it's natural and at the moment all you can do is give them your sorrow."
"No, it can't happen. Reiji, Shizuro. Kenichi there both dead!" yelled Kippei as he enter Kenichi's room.
" I know I saw everything." Kenichi glanced at his monitor. "We couldn't do anything!" He yelled throwing over his desk.
"That's not true Kenichi. At least they can be together with their mum and dad, that's all they really wanted. The least we can do is give them a proper burial." Said Kippei wiping tears away from his face.
"Your right, for now that's all we can do. After that's done I think we should head our separate ways. Base is no longer, with both Princes dead there is no need for revenge we can live the way we want." Said Kenichi smiling.
"Yeah, I'll never for get those's two. They were my best friends."
"As would I. I would never forget. Come on Kippei."
"Come, let's go." Said Yoko pulling Chiisu away. They walked down the hallways of the empty castle for awhile.
"Yoko where are we?" asked Chiisuteru puzzled.
She looked around and she found out they had walked into a bedroom. "Why are we in here?"
"Do you have to ask?" He said slyly.
"You try to hard. How can you think of something like this." she said to Yoko who was mischievously carrying her towards the bed.
"Do I," he explained. He sat her on the bed and looked at her hungrily. "If you only kiss me then Kurama would come back, and you then won't have to worry about me doing stuff like this." He grabbed her blouse and cut off a button using his sharp nails.
" HEY!" yelled Chiisuteru grabbing hold of her shirt and crawling to the end of the bed. " Don't touch me. I've just seen someone get killed have some respect."
Yoko stared at her. "I can't do that. The feelings swirling around inside this small body are quite strong, and I can't think of anything else."
"Really," she said
Yoko grinned and shook his head as he walked towards her. "Stay back." Said Chiisu glancing at the figure in front of her. Yoko pushed her down so she lay on the soft velvet covers. He traced his hand down her face towards her chest.
" I SAID STOP!" she yelled kicking him. Yoko just smiled and continued his work.
"STOP, STOP!" She started crying.
Yoko sighed. "Okay, I'll suppress my self for now, so you can recover."
She looked at him threw watery eyes. Kurama, why can't you be here?
They both sat in the room for some time now. They haven't said anything and Yoko was fidgeting. He then turned to her and said "I'm sorry."
Chiisu glanced up at him. "It's okay."
"No it's not. Shuichi and I ….we really love you. I can feel his pain, right here, over my heart. He's sorry for what's happened." Yoko looked at her and grabbed her hand and then timidly kissed her hand.
Chiisu glanced up at him. "Thank you though for apologizing." She looked at her hand and the sweet kiss on it. " Yoko,"
"Yes, he replied."
She looked up at him. I'm glad to have met you. You were different, but in some way I could see that you really are Kurama, and I want to see him now. She gently placed her lips on his lips. It was rather electrifying and it felt hot. When she was finished she was looking up not into yellowish eyes of gold, but green emeralds.
Kurama laid over her for a couple minutes before he realized what was happening and jumped to a seating position. "I'm so sorry."
Chiisuteru was amazed that it worked and leaned towards Kurama to get a better look. She ran her hand down his long hair and breathed in his scent of sweet flowers.
"So it is you Kurama." She explained I knew it
Kurama watched her as she reached his face. "Yes it is I. I'm sorry that I didn't protect you. That you were taken away, that you had to endure such unpleasant things, but before anything else happens I want you to know that I love you."
Chiisuteru looked at him threw her teary face. "Kurama I love you too." She pulled him close to her and kissed him warmly. They weren't sure how long they were doing that, but they stopped when they heard someone was in the room.
"We come all this way to save your ass, and we find that you're perfectly safe and swapping spit with the princess." Said Yusuke grinning.
" Gosh, at least we know your straight Kurama." Said Kuwabara.
Hiei smacked him. " Of course he is you baka." He turned to Kurama and Chiisuteru who were now feet away from each other. " If you two don't mind we like to go home."
Four weeks later
" Hey! Chiisu!" called Hana as she an up the hill where Chiisu sat in front of a grave.
" Hana, hey." Asked Chiisuteru.
"So you're paying your respect." She asked
"Yeah, I heard a lot more about their past from Koenma. They weren't bad brothers. They just were alone and wanted to have something to live for." Chiisu said placing flowers in the stone tablet. "So how are things? Did Shugutenshi leave yet?"
"Yes, he already went back. He was too cute to stay here on earth anyway."
Chiisuteru laughed.
"So how about you princess, what have you been doing now that everything is back to normal."
"Well, I've went back to my parents house and I'm finishing up school."
"Really, is that all?" She asked grinning.
Chiisuteru blushed." No, after she finishes High School I plan to marry her." Said Kurama who happened show up.
Chiisu stood from her spot. "You really mean that? You would want to be with me, and only me."
Kurama came up to her and took her hand. " I want to be with you no matter what."
"You would love me even if I act like a child at times? Would you love me even if I'm stubborn? Would you love me even if I get angry and throw fits? Would you love me even when I get this crazy idea to change me hair pink? Would you love me even if I can't cook? Even if am clumsy? Are can't sing? "
"I'll love you for everything you are, and if it takes me saying it to you, I'll say it everyday. If it takes me showing it to you, all do it all the time. I'll do anything and everything to show you that I care until you believe it yourself."
Chiisu started to cry. Kurama walked up towards her and gave her a hug. Running away from love was all I was doing, but I won't do it again. I'm brave enough now, more so then ever.
You never thought a young girl's heart could be so difficult. Especially when it comes to finding love.
