Chapter 9: Oh, Kurama
The demons dashed forward. Many were there, filling the room, for they kept coming. Hiei, Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiyokoai really had there hands full. There were, quite litterally, demons everywhere! Kurama just hoped his mom wouldn't come home any time soon. Yes, it was his fault the demons were here in the first place, but you do crazy things for love. At first, he thought that was just a saying and some stupid thing only humans believed, but now he knew it was true. He might just do anything for Hiyoko.
Hey, Yoko, why aren't you helping? You do all the major fighting. I'm bored...
This is all YOUR fault, Yoko replied angrily. Therefore, it's YOUR fight. I'm...just gonna be lazy and lay back...Besides, it was your stupid human-like decision that got us into this in the first place. You just better not get my body ruined by being killed.
YOUR body?
Yeah, not like I'd care if you were gone, if that's what you're worried about. I just want a body to stay in instead of swithching all the time and I like yours. Gotta problem with it? Yoko snorted.
Shuiichi grumbled angrily.
'Having a problem?' Hiei asked through telepathy.
'No, Yoko's just being Yoko again,' Kurama answered.
'Hn,' Hiei smirked.
Kurama knew it had to have been an hour since the battle started. The demons just wouldn't stop coming and he was beggining to wonder if the battle would ever end.
"KYAAA!" A demon screamed as Hiei sliced it in half with his katana.
"Kuuu!" Another yelled as Yusuke punched through it's heart.
"Blaaaa!" One hollered as Hiyokoai ripped it's head in two.
"Kwaaa!" Ten yelled as Kurama sliced them into tiny, bloody pieces with his rosewhip.
These things won't die! Maybe I should just give up and let them have my soul so no one gets hurt...
Don't you dare, you weakling! Yoko growled. It'll just hurt you PRECIOUS little girlfriend more if you give up your soul! Tch. BAKA!
Kurama panted in frustration and exhaust.
"Ok, I'm tired of this!" Hiei yelled. "You demons have one last chance. Get out or you'll all die." He started to unwrap the bandage around his arm.
"Hiei, you know it's dangerous to use your Dragon," Kurama warned.
"So what?" Hiei asked. "They're getting on my nerves!"
The demons just laughed and all came after Hiei.
"Have it your way," Hiei smirked. "Dragon Of The Darkness Flame!"
All of the demons in the house were fried to ash. Hiei was careful to direct the Dragon, so as not to ruin Shuiichi's house. Unexpectedly, though, the dragon came back at them and a loud, menacing laugh was heard.
"What the!" Hiei yelled and jumped in front of the Dragon to protect his friends. "ACK!"
"Hiei!" Everyone yelled as their friend got swallowed by his very own attack.
"Oh, Kurama," A man's voice sounded out. "Did you think you and your pitiful friends could stop me from getting your delicious soul?"
"Oh, Kurama," Hiyoko (AN: she changed back) said sadly. "How bad was that deal you made?"
"Only as bad as selling your soul to a soul eating demon can get," Kurama said, sighing.
"Oh, Kurama," Hiyoko said, fear in her voice. "What are we going to do?"
Hiyoko clung on to him in what he could tell was fear of losing him again. Kurama was scared himself, but he wasn't going to let it show. He would find a way to beat this demon.
