The Dangerous Encounter

(Part Two)

"Yuri … why … don't you … admit … that we … lost him?" Yuu asked as the two boys were in the forest now and both were out of breath. "We … can just … go back … and … wait for … Jacob to … return." Yuu added. He placed his hands on his knees and tried to catch his breath.

"No not yet." Yuri said as he stopped and looked around. They weren't lost but Yuri was thinking the Jacob might be. Yuu pushed his glasses up and Yuri tightened his ponytail when it was then that they heard something.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"

"Jacob!" Both boys said and they went running in the direction that Jacob's scream came from. The boys had to jump over uprooted tree roots and vines that were so tangled they would trip anyone. When they finally saw Jacob Yuri was about to go to him when Yuu grabbed his shoulder. "What?" Yuri said.

"Something isn't right." Yuu said. The two then saw something. Jacob started sprouting wings and Jacob screamed more. When the change was done Jacob was on his hands and knees on the ground panting. Both boys just stayed hidden and at a loss for words. When Jacob stood up they could see his crimson red eyes. Then another figure came.

"Hey isn't that Doctor Muraki?" Yuri asked.

"Maybe he came to help Jacob." Yuu said. "After all he is a good doctor." Yuu added.

"Well, I was wondering when you were going to come find me." Muraki said. "What's wrong? Are you in pain?" He asked as he could still see some of the wounds.

"They only hurt when you are around." Jacob said. Jacob's voice was slightly different. This really confused the boys. However, they stayed quiet and listened in.

"My you have spirit don't you?" Muraki said.

"Drop dead cynical ass wipe." Jacob said.

"Such terrible words for the one that raised you." Muraki said.

"Shut up!" Jacob yelled and he actually charged at Muraki. However Muraki had planned for this and a symbol suddenly appeared on the ground and brought Jacob right down on it. Jacob was trapped. "What's this?" Jacob said as he tried to move.

Muraki started to laugh and this laugh scared the two boys. "You honestly thought that I didn't know how to trap a Chishio?" Muraki asked. "You certainly don't use your head do you son?" Muraki said.

"Son?" Yuu said as this puzzled him. Yuri looked like he was half wanting to jump out there and take on Muraki and half wanting to run home thinking this would all be a bad dream. HE was almost shaking all over.

Jacob smirked and he then tried to use his vectors however, the moment they came out Jacob was being shocked. "Oh … didn't I tell you that if you use your vectors you will get hurt?" Muraki said.

"Just … kill me already." Jacob demanded. "You got me where you want me so why don't you kill me?" Jacob yelled out.

"My dear boy you are too much of a precious doll to just kill so easily." Muraki said. "No, I think I would rather have fun with you some more before I do kill you." Muraki added.

"Kill me or I will kill you." Jacob said. His eyes showed the anger he had towards Muraki. He struggled to get free but he just ended up getting shocked more.

Muraki let out an evil laugh. "Mehehehehehehe!" Muraki's laugh sent chills down the boys' backs. "The only way you will be able to kill me is if somehow I was distracted enough that the spell that has you would break." Muraki said. Yuri and Yuu looked at each other. Almost as if they read each other's mind they gave a nod.

As Muraki continued on with his annoying bragging the two boys put their brains to some use. Yuu did measurements while Yuri set the stuff up. Jacob tried again with his vectors and again he was shocked. Muraki walked towards him and knelt down so that he was looking right into his crimson red eyes and Jacob was looking right into his silver eyes. "Good thing these vines were here." Yuri said.

"Yes now make sure you get it secure Yuri. We wouldn't want it to go off before we finish." Yuu said.

"Right." Yuri said. 'Just hang in there Jacob.' Yuri thought to himself.

Muraki was too distracted with Jacob to even take notice of some of the bushes and tree limbs moving in odd ways. Jacob could hear small whispers with his ears. He somehow figured who it was there. 'No boys run. Run, he just might kill you.' Jacob thought to himself. He kept his eyes locked onto Muraki's eyes so as to not let him figure out something is up.

"You know you really were a precious doll." Muraki said in a low whisper. Muraki smiled and placed his hands on Jacob's cheeks. "Even when you were a little baby with no life in you." Muraki said and he started to lean in to kiss Jacob. However, Jacob spit right in Muraki's face. Muraki stood back up. "I guess I played with you long enough." He said and he pulled out a sliver dagger that had a blue handle with a design of a dragon on it. "Say hello to your parents for me." Muraki said.

"Now!" Yuu yelled. Yuri let loose the veins and as tree limbs and bushes returned to their original positions rocks about the size of their fists went hurtling through the air and were actually hitting Muraki dead on. He shielded his face and the expression he had was a not to pleasing one. When the rocks were done being thrown all was silent.

"It seems that there are some rather large pests spying on us. Right Jacob?" Muraki turned to face Jacob and was now even more annoyed. The spot that Jacob had been at was empty. Muraki smirked as he looked in the direction that the rocks had come from. "Looks like you had some help." Muraki said. He walked over in the direction that the rocks came from. But upon reaching there no one was there. Muraki didn't seem to be upset about this one bit. In fact he was looking as if he was having fun. "It seems we can continue playing the game. Right?" Muraki said as he gazed up at the night sky.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Wow this is amazing!" Yuri said. Jacob was holding onto both boys and flying through the sky.

Flashback

"Now!" Yuu yelled. Yuri let loose the veins and as tree limbs and bushes returned to their original positions rocks about the size of their fists went hurtling through the air and was actually hitting Muraki dead on.

"Hey Yuu what will happen when everything stops?" Yuri asked as he continued to pull vine after vine. This set six rocks flying into the air.

"Simple we will just --" Yuu got cut off as both boys had a hand put around their mouths.

"Just set off the last ones now and will get out of here." Jacob said in a whisper. Yuu and Yuri nodded and pulled the remaining ten vines. Then Jacob picked up both boys and took off.

End of Flashback

They flew and landed in an empty alley way. "Man that was sweet." Yuri said. "Hey did you see the look on the Doctor's face when the rocks went flying at him?" Yuri asked. Jacob grabbed a hold of both boys. "Hey what's wrong?" Yuri asked.

"Why did you guys follow me? Why? Don't you know that by following me you put yourself in danger?" Jacob said he had a hold of both boys' shirt collars. "That man is dangerous. He had killed people." Jacob added.

"We didn't want anything to happen to you." Yuu said.

"Hai, we like you Jacob. Day and night." Yuri said. "We don't care what you look like." Yuri added.

"We were just worried about you. Worried like friends should be." Yuu said. Hearing them say those things caught Jacob off guard.

"You mean you don't mind that I am a monster?" Jacob asked. Both boys smiled and shook their heads. Jacob was relieved. He let go of the boys and hugged them. "I am glad that you two are alright." He said to them. When he stopped hugging them he looked at them both and then smirked. "And I did see the look on Muraki's face when those rocks started hitting him." He said.

All three of them started laughing and talking about how they set the traps up.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The sun was coming up by the time Muraki made it back to his house. "I guess I will see you another night." Muraki said as he looked up at the rising sun. " … son." He said.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The front door started to open and it was morning in the Inn but all was quiet. Jacob who was now back to his normal self was tip toeing in with the two boys' right behind him. "You guys got it?" Jacob said in a whisper.

"Yeah." Whispered Yuu.

"I wonder if they worried about us." Yuri whispered.

"Just follow my lead." Jacob whispered to them both. Just then the lights in the hallway clicked on and right by the light switch was Haruka and Michiru. Both looked to have a mixture of anger and relief on their faces.

"And where have you been?" Haruka asked. She had her arms crossed in front of her.

"You have any idea how worried we were?" Michiru asked as her hands were on her hips.

"Sorry mom." Yuu said.

"Yeah sorry." Yuri said.

"I'm sorry to mom I mean! -- Sorry." Jacob said.

"Sorry won't get it." Haruka said. "Now explain yourselves." Haruka said. Her eyes showed the strictness in her as they waited for an answer.

None of them said anything but the two boys brought their hands from behind there back and showed their parents the bundle of flowers they had. "What's this?" Michiru asked as Yuu and Yuri handed their bothers the flowers.

"It was Jacob's idea." Yuu said. "We believe that you guys do so much work and deserve proper thanks." Yuu added.

"What?" Haruka said. She looked at the flowers. "But these can only be found at night because they bloom at night." Haruka said.

"So that is why you left so suddenly." Michiru said. Jacob gave a nod. "Well, just next time call alright?" Michiru said as she hugged Yuu.

"That goes for you to." Haruka said as she hugged Yuri.

"Yes mother." Both boys said.

"Good now I am sure the three of you are tired so off to bed and no back talking." Michiru said. Jacob, Yuu, and Yuri said goodnight and went up the steps.

"Remember boys keep what you saw a secret." Jacob said once they got up stairs. "The last thing I want is to have my troubles spill onto others." Jacob added.

Both boys gave a nod. "Hey, Jacob? Do you think that you can stop that guy?" Yuri asked. "I mean he seems pretty strong." He added.

Jacob gave the two boys a warm smile. "He only seems that way because he uses bad magic." Jacob said. "Now don't worry." He added as he ruffled both boys' hair.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

It was now going on two in the afternoon and Muraki was locking up early. He started his walk down the street. Yuri was with a few friends and spinning a basketball on his finger. "Yuri I can't believe the shot you took." One boy said.

"Yeah it was from the three point line." A boy with dark brown hair said.

"You know only Yuri makes the wild shots like that one." A boy that was slightly taller then Yuri. "Now maybe those others guys will think twice before challenging us again. Right Yuri?" The boy said. However Yuri seemed frozen to one spot the basketball fell to the ground and was bouncing away from them. As each bounce got smaller the ball was farther away. "Yuri was just staring a head.

"Yuri?" a boy with blue eyes and shaggy long hair said. "You okay?" He asked. Yuri watched Muraki walk down the street and disappear around the corner of the bakery. Yuri took off into a run to follow.

"YURI!" The boys called to him.

"I'll see you guys later! I just remembered I had to do something!" Yuri called back to him. 'I have to find out what the doctor was going to do to Jacob.' Yuri thought to himself. Yuri ran after him and for a guy that was only walking, he sure was far a head. Right as Yuri was about to turn the corner Yuu smacked right into him. Apparently Yuu was also following Muraki. He had spotted him going down a side street and thought he could head him off or at least get closer. Both boys nodded and ran after Muraki. They had turned the corner and smacked right into Muraki who knew they were following him. "Well, where's the fire boys?" He asked.

Okay, you guys now things are getting to be more interresting. Here is a small taste of what you will see in the next chapter

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hmmm." Muraki said was he was looking in his basement at the footprints in the dust that were not his own. He walked over to the file cabinet which looked normal and would have looked un touched had it not been for the child size finger prints. "It seems that it is time for me to go." Muraki said.

He somehow knew that something was missing but he didn't seem discouraged by this. 'Your friend had gotten so many bumps on his head with all those fainting spells he had planned. No matter I was leaving anyways.' Muraki thought to himself.
