---Deceased Romance With New Revelations---

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho…

Hm… read the note at the end of the chapter, it'll say something VERY important. If you don't read it, then…. well…. your loss…

Chapter 25: Search and Rescue

Spirit Detective's POV…

"They should be near this area somewhere…either that or the youkai that kidnapped them went to great lengths to travel far," Kurama noted, scanning the area.

Yusuke snorted, "If they laid a hand on Kagome or Sango…"

"Just shut up and look," Hiei growled, slashing through some bamboo stalks.

"Well, sor-ry!"

"I think I found something!" Kuwabara shouted out from a few meters away, frantically waving his hands around.

"We can hardly see you!" Kurama tried to maneuver through the plants.

All of a sudden, a yellow light flashed and numerous trees suddenly toppled to the ground.

"Thanks"

Kuwabara grinned, giving Kurama a thumbs up, "It's some wiggly marks on the ground; I don't know if it's helpful, but it's something…"

Kurama bent down a drug his fingers across the impressions in the dirt, "Snake marks. There are some signs of a struggle…" He pointed out some footprints and light squiggle marks in the ground, "Maybe some snakes have got them…?"

"So…" Yusuke raised an eyebrow, "You're saying that a couple fat ass snakes captured my cousin"

"Technically speaking, yes" Kurama sighed.

"They went that way" Hiei ran off somewhere west, the other three following him, "Hurry, something might've happened"

ALL RIGHT! I know that this chapter is VERY short… but…ano…Argh…I feel really guilty for doing this, especially to my enthusiastic readers like you who are currently reading this right now… I'd just like to tell you that I WAS thinking a lot about you while making this decision...and...

I will be…sigh…placing this story on hold until further notice… but for sure, it will never be discontinued… I don't know for how long – but until I build up some interest to type this up again. (It for sure will not take longer than 5 months, if that comforts you any more)

I apologize…but…I just…can't believe I'm doing this and…well…I can't write a good quality story if I just currently don't have any interest in it to spare… I hope you understand! GOMEN NASAI!

Sayonara for now…
