There was a knock on the front door. Kurama hurried to get it while Hiei finished packing. "Hello Yusuke Thank you for coming." Kurama said opening the door so Yusuke could get in. Yusuke smiled when he saw Kurama. He knew they were going to the mountains but he would pay big money to see Kurama do it in his condition. Kurama had a pretty big belly and always had his hand on it now.
"So, how long do you plan on being?" Yusuke asked looking at Kurama. Kurama shook his head, "We don't know how long it will take us that's why we asked you to watch the house for us." Hiei came out of the bedroom with a large heavy bag and set it next to the front door. "Man isn't that alot to bring?" Yusuke asked. "What's up with all the damn questions detective? Can't you shut up for five minutes so we can finish packing and leave?" Hiei asked annoyed.
Yusuke catching the point went to the kitchen, "Fine I'll just grab a drink and watch some TV." Hiei mummbled something about Yusuke being an idiot before heading back to the bedroom, Kurama following. "You know Koi you could be a little nicer to Yusuke since he is watching the house for us." Kurama said.
"Bye Yusuke thanks again." Kurama said picking up a couple of bags. "No problem guys. I'm always happy to help. You love birds go have fun." Ysuke called from the couch. Hiei looked at Kurama, "Are you sure you got all that alright Fox?" Kurama smiled at Hiei, "Of course Hiei. Let's go we wont make it if we don't hury." With their last goodbyes they left.
As they started walking Hiei kept checking on Kurama to make sure that, with everything he was carring, would be ok. Kurama, of course, noticed how Hiei kept looking over at him and smiled. "Hiei I promise if I need a break I will tell you." Kurama said making Hiei look away quickly. "I'm only concerned for you Fox." Hiei said. Kurama smiled wider and walked closer to Hiei as they reached the edge of town.
They have been walking a few hours and were coming up to a forest. "Rght inside the forest is a small cave with a river we can stop there and rest." Kurama said. Hiei was glad that they were stopping, since it hit the middle of the day. Once they reached the forest Kurama pointed west, "It's just over there." Hiei nodded and followed sliently. Once at the cave Hiei put his stuff down than helped Kurama.
"Let go take a bath Hiei. Than we can come ack and fix something to eat." Kurama said smiling. Hiei agreed and they went to bathe. Once at the river, Hiei watched as Kurama stripped down and walked over to him to help with his clothes. Once Hiei was naked as well Kurama pulled him into a deep kiss than walked slowly into the water.
Hiei quickly followed his fox into the water. "Feel better Love?" Hiei asked pulling Kurama against him. Kurama moaned, "Yes actually I do. I think this is what we needed, a cold bath." Kurama turned his head licking and nuzzling Hiei's neck. "If we leave in about an hour than we can make to the mountain by night fall." Hiei said. Nodding Kurama closed his eyes and relaxed while Hiei rubbed a hand over his stomach.
They were back on the trail when a demon jumped out behind them and went for Kurama. Hiei's in-human reflexs kept Kurama from being hurt. Hiei grabbed the blue green clawed arm in his hand breaking it easily. The demon roard in pain and went back after Kurama with the other arm. One swing from Hiei's katana and the demons arm was gone.
"Kurama stay behind me." Hiei said to his mate. Kurama, who was trying to find a way to strike the demon, stepped behind Hiei. The demon let out a laugh, "Now I can kill you both at one time. Hope you said your prayers." Pulling out a large spear like weapon he thrusted it with amazing speed toward them. Hiei quickly pushed Kurama out from behind him just as the spear went threw his lower chest.
The demon laughed than disappeared. Hiei crumbled to the ground surrounded in his blood while Kurama screamed his name. "HIEI?"
