Attention: I know that Kurabara is the way that it is spelled, but in Poltergeist Report it is Kurahara and I will continue to spell it as such.

Yu Yu Hakusho does not belong to me, for the exception of Alicia. The plot I have not seen it anywhere else so that is so, so.

I've only seen a few episodes and one movie of Yu Yu Hakausho so please forgive me if any of the characters are out of character.

Chapter Thirteen

He stood there frozen where he stood, so this was the thing that had been haunting him and now even more then before, Alicia was in grand peril.

"Who would have thought that this little thing could taste so good, but then again you are not interested in blood like my kind are."

"Let her go."

"Oh, your commanding me, my you must be very stupid to even suggest that I let go of this delightful treat. Or is she your little mate? You do seem to care for her. Why should I give her to you?"

He watched as she brought her mouth to Alicia's mouth the fangs that where now clear to him suck themselves into her neck. Hearing a silent moan come from Alicia's lips his eyes widened in fear for Alicia.

"Can you hear it, can you hear her blood though her veins? Can you smell it? No I don't think you can. Though if you could you would understand how addicting it is to have."

"Who are you?"

"Me, I'm Lamia, but then I would ask you who you are, but you don't even know your true name do you John."

She looked at him, to see the shock that he displayed.

"How do I know that? Why the blood of living beings holds more then just nourishment and power, but also memories. Wake up little one, I know you want to say hello to your little friend."

Alicia's eyes slowly opened revealing her normal hazel eyes where now dark. She seemed calmed for what was happening.

"Well, I didn't say she would be in control of herself, but she does know what is going on."

The thrall that Alicia was under was powerful even though she did not know what it was. Yet she still fought even more so when she saw John in front of her, she wanted to scream. Scream for him to run, to get away from this thing. Yet nothing would come out of her mouth, but a moan.

The mists that surrounded the area around them seemed to keep most of the morning sunlight off of them; John kept his eyes on Lamia and the area around them for something that could help him fight this thing and to get Alicia away and to safety.

What could he do, what could he do to save Alicia. He moved his hand into his hair expecting to fell the very rose that he clearly could remember, to help deal with the problem before him. As his hand moved though his hair that was all that he could feel. How can he fight against this thing with out a weapon, he looked around for something that might help, but the only thing he could see on the bridge vines. Which gave him idea.

"Now what do you have there, a vain. Do you even believe you can fight me with a mere little plant? Oh I can sense the fear from you, you are a weak one. I would love to play with you, but can't you see that I'm quite occupied at the moment with this little one."

"Not for long."

As he grabbed unto the vines he could feel them grow and gather together into a strange rope behind Lamia. The vines made there way around her separating into two one section wrapped around her tighten it's gripe upon her as she began to struggle while the other section wrapped around Alicia gently releasing her from the grips of the vampire.

"What in hell is this?"

She was to shock to react when the vines dragged her victim from her grasp to do anything to fight back.

"Tricky, tricky, there is more to you then I thought little demon. Well then I will allow this victory today, but this is not the last we will see one another. Next time I will go ahead and have my full of the little morsel of a friend, so bye, bye."

At those words Lamia's body slow disappeared into the mist the vines that had encompassed her fell away and apart. But how he had made the vines grow or how Lamia had escape was not on his mind at the present moment as he ran to Alicia. She was unconscious and pail and this worried him, this girl was so kind to him and had helped him so much how could he had put her into danger the way that he did. This was all that he could think of as he picked her limp body up and made his way to the house.

Running was all he could do as they made their way to where they knew the next person that was going to die was going to be it was the only thing that he could do as Botan and Emiko flew unseen on their oars. As while Hiei was jumping from building to building they had to get there before whatever was hunting these souls got there first. When he had arrived to where the scene of the death was going to be he could only try to slow his heart. It just seemed to quiet for anything to happen here at this quite little road, the hill that was before him was the only thing he had to go. He started to take each stair that was imbedded onto the hill three at a time when a man in his old age came into his view. Taking each step one by one each one seemed to be a struggle to him.

'Oh no, Gramps, don't you dare die here not when those things are stealing souls!'

"Move out of the way, you hoodlum can't you see I'm walking here!"

"Sorry, Gramps."

'Man that old man is tougher then he looks. At least he isn't the one where looking for."

In a room filled with sadness and tears the family of the Nakamura stood or sat around the room. While the matriarch of this family lay on the bed waiting to be in the arms of death at least not knowing what was ahead for her after this life, the fear of it was dampened by the support of her family with her comforting her. She had lived her life and was ready for death to come, but yet there was so much she still wanted to see. One of these being the birth of her a great-grandchild the child from her youngest son, whom she had just found out with technology of today, was going to be a boy. Though she never would have in the first place have believed this guess as what she called. For she did not trust must of the technology of today, sure that some sort of problems would arise that would destroy human kind, but that was not going to happen in the last few moments of her life and she hoped that it would never happen for the safety of her family and the rest of the world.

"Mom, you okay?"

"Oh, I'm fine I'm going to be okay, I lived my life. I am scared, I have to admit it, but having you all here is such a relief and wonder for me. I'm glad that I can see you all one last time."

"This won't be the last time you see us, Mom. You'll see us in the next life."

"Yes, of course your right, but that will be a long time a very long time." She would have loved to believe that, but that was something that had scared her since she was a young child. But what she saw outside made her wonder if there was really something after this life.

The grin the formed from his lips was wicked, the old woman would not expect to be used as such a wonderful source of energy for the army that Bathninwas making. He knew that no one within the room could see him not even this close to death. His eyes concentrated on the woman's features he could clearly see fear within her eyes and he rejoiced upon it. Even before he had fallen the fear from those that where dieing had always brought a form of joy to him, often torturing his charges for this must needed supply of nutrients. When her eyes met him something about her eyes made him wonder, but not for long when she had turn to talk to someone next to her.

There was no way that she could have seen him, not now not yet. The only way anyone could see him was if they had some very high psychic ability, but from what he had read about her she had shown none of the sort in all her life. He shook his head chasing the very thought from his mind.

'This woman is taking to long to pass, this one was a fighter and was going to fight to say her last words to her family.'

It was getting very hard to talk and she was starting to get tired and cold, the pain that she felt was something that she had never anticipated with death, but then again her body was giving out on her due to old age.

"I'm going to miss you all so much, I love you all. You do know that."

The nods that she saw filled with sad looks.

"Now don't be sad, this was coming in time. I want you all to be happy and have fun enjoy your lives for me and for yourselves even more." She looked upon her family for one last time before sleep over whelmed her.

They have to be there this had to be the area that their target might strike next, but when they saw a feather fall down near them, the same type of feather that they had found earlier. The four of them looked up to see floating near a window, the black wings upon his back where something that they never had imagined to see. Then again they had seen things that now would not surprise them.

"Hey we got some business to deal with you!"

"Mr. Yusuke."

"Botan, take Emiko and get to that person we will keep him busy."

"Right, Yusuke. Come on Emiko."

"Botan, what about them?"

"Don't worry they know what they are doing."

Dumah, watched as the two young grim reapers made their way to his target. He could not allow them to get near the woman she was his to do with as pleased. He could only scuff at what these pathetic beings where trying to stop him. Yet know he wonder why they could see him made him curious.

"How dare you bugs come here and disrupt my work, leave now before you get harmed."
