-1Deadly Adventures

A/N: Again with what happens when I'm not allowed online for a long, long time.

Summary: Desperate for a win in the war against Lykouleon and the dragons, Nadil casts a spell to summon more demons. And he got more than he bargained for. Answering the call were Kurama, Youko, Hiei, and Kuronue. Unfortunately for Nadil, only one of the answering demons actually made it to where he specified. The other three found themselves in an odd world and not exactly welcome. Especially for the one that found himself in the vicinity of Rath.

Disclaimer: I don't own YYH nor Dragon Knights.

Kuro: Hey guys, this is the final chapter! Sorry I didn't warn you about this before. Anyway, I have another YYH fic that'll start soon, but for you DK fans, you'll have to bug me for awhile, and if you do, I'll pick one of you to run a few ideas by to see what I'll post next!

Youko: So you'll be seeing us again!

Rath: But if you want to see more of us, bug the hell out of her!

Nadil

With a roar of anger, he threw the yokai messenger against the wall. Shyrendora was wrong, the potion could wear off, as had just been proven. The hybrid brat she had brought to him had escaped, taking the Water Dragon Knight with him.

The two were still somewhere in the castle, but none of the yokai who had come across them could seem t detain them. Nadil stood erect when an idea came to him. They would go to save their friend, the ningen with a yokai aura. So if he could ambush them there…He began to make his way to the dungeon. He would not lose those two to the Dragons.

Kuronue

The Yokai Castle was ablaze with fire, yokai and dragons fighting each other all over the place. He and Youko took out some on their way into the castle, but their mission was different from everyone else's.

They had to find Shuuichi and the others.

"Where's Hiei?" Kuronue asked as his spinning scythe decapitated another yokai. Youko shook his head, skirting around the blood pooled on the floor.

"He won't answer me. I have no idea what's going on. Besides, there's too much going on right now for me to concentrate enough to force him to respond." Kuronue cursed under his breath as the two of them made their way to the dungeon. War was never pretty, nor was it easy to navigate in. "But, if it's any consolation, I know that he's with Shuuichi. I can feel their auras, though there's an extremely powerful yokai with them."

A laugh halted their advance. "That would be Lord Nadil's aura that you feel. There's no way that those two will break free while he's with them." Both looked up to see two yokai, one female, the other male. The female had been the one laughing and speaking.

"Dammit, we don't have time to play with you two brats!" Youko growled out. Kuronue looked over at him with surprise in his eyes. It wasn't everyday that Youko let his age show.

"Brats? Who are you calling brats?" The male yokai demanded, scowling.

"I am over 1000 years old, you're brats to me." Youko responded, readying himself for battle.

"Hey, Youko, Kuronue!" Thatz ran up to them. "Shydeman, Shyrendora." Thatz raised his sword, but Kuronue grabbed his arm.

"You have to go after the others. We can take care of these two." Kuronue said quickly and quietly. "If you get to Hiei, he should be able to pinpoint Yusuke, and maybe Rune and Rath too. They're in the dungeon." Thatz stared at the two foreign yokai thieves and nodded. He lowered his sword and ran, Youko blocking an attack made on him by Shydeman.

"Your battle is with us." Youko said, a playful tone in his voice, which made Kuronue grin. Youko was going to have fun, now that he was calmer since he knew that both Thatz and Hiei would be able to protect Shuuichi.

Thatz

He slid down a hallway covered in blood and corpses, just managing to catch a wall so he could run down another set of stairs. This damn castle had too many stairs.

Earth was still outside, keeping an eye on Kitchel. He'd never forgive himself if something happened to her during this battle. So that left Thatz on his own, to protect himself and the others with only his sword.

He jumped down the last few steps just in time to see Hiei stab through Nadil. A few moments of movement that he couldn't follow later, and there were pieces of Nadil scattered all over the place. At that same time, all of the doors to the cells burst open as spells were unraveled, now that their caster was dead.

"Holy…You're powerful, man, real powerful." Thatz said, walking over to Hiei, who ignored him and ran into a cell, coming back out with a bloodied red-head. "Damn…Is that Shuuichi?" Again, Hiei ignored him, laying the red-head on the floor.

"Kurama. Kurama, can you hear me?" Hiei shook the other, who opened his eyes weakly.

"Hiei? I'm not dreaming this time, right?" Hiei shook his head and the red-head smiled, closing his eyes again. "I can feel Youko…and the plants…It feels nice…"

"Kurama, open your eyes. It's time we got out of here, which means you need to stay conscious.

"Hiei, Rune told me something…" Thatz colored slightly, starting to think that maybe this wasn't something he should be listening to. So, he cleared his throat, earning a dark glare from Hiei.

"Um…I was just wondering if you could tell me where I could find Rune and Rath…" Hiei continued to glare. "Or not…That's cool too."

"Hiei, tell him. It won't do any harm." Kurama said, opening his eyes again. Hiei rolled his eyes, the most normal thing Thatz had ever seen him do.

"Three floors up. They're with the Detective."

"Thanks, man." Thatz turned, starting to run up the stairs.

"See, that wasn't so hard, was it?" Thatz heard before he was out of earshot.

Rath

"Rath! Rath!" Rune's cries were like bliss to Rath as his arms wrapped around a body he'd missed dearly since Rune's abduction. "Oh, Rath, I've missed you so much…" Rune buried his face in Rath's neck, his arms making a tight grip on Rath.

"I missed you too, I missed you too." Rath said, rubbing Rune's back in circles consolingly. "I'm so glad you're all right…"

"I don't mean to interrupt or anything, but maybe we should save all this reunion stuff for when we find Kurama and get out of here." The boy Rath saw Shyrendora take said, rubbing the back of his head.

"Hiei is going for 'Kurama.'" Rath replied, but he still let go of Rune, albeit reluctantly, to turn and prepare for the trip back down to the main floor.

"Oh. Well, do you know what happened to two yokai known as Touya and Jinn?" The boy asked as the three of them began the trek down the stairs.

"They were making a distraction for us to sneak in. I'm assuming that the Dragon Army has arrived, now that the castle's on fire." Rath pulled Rune along once they reached the main floor, stepping over the bodies of Shydeman and Shyrendora. "That helps support the theory."

The boy nodded, staring at the corpses for a bit. "Hey, that's Youko and Kuronue's handiwork." Rath shrugged, continuing to pull Rune along until they were far enough away from the blazing castle to satisfy Rath's desire for Rune's safety. "Touya! Oh man…Jinn…" The boy ran off, seeing his friends.

Thatz came running out of the castle, just before the front door collapsed under the weight of the burning timbers. He looked around for a bit before Earth approached him and Kitchel tackled him to the ground. He grinned over at Rath and Rune before pulling her into a deep kiss.

"Rune…" Rune looked back at Rath after cheering when Ruwalk finally pulled up enough courage to kiss the wounded Alfeegi and admit his feelings. Rath dropped to one knee and pulled a ring from his pocket, not the one he'd shown to Hiei before, but a different one, this one made of Moonsilver(1). "Rune, will you marry me?"

"No!" A shriek pierced the air, completely destroying the joyous celebration of the war won and the random admittance of love as Cesia stomped up to Rath and Rune. "Don't you dare do this, Rath!"

Rune, finally snapping after all the hounding she did of his boyfriend, now fiancé, punched her in the face. "Back off, you stupid girl. Never has Rath ever shown any interest in you, and never will he. Now excuse me as I kiss my fiancé." Rune turned, pulling Rath up and into a kiss, cheered on by the Dragons and a few of the visitors.

Hiei

"I've got him." He stated, glaring at Youko.

"He's got me." Kurama echoed, making shooing motions at Youko, who finally relented and stepped away from the two of them.

"Well, you're not all right, Shuuichi. You need rest and healing, and being held up like that isn't going to give you either." Kuronue commented from the tree he was leaning on, watching the scene between Rath and Rune with a small smirk on his lips.

"However, we can offer both of those." Lykouleon said, limping up with Tetheus aiding him.

"That would be very kind of you." Kurama said, his eyes crossing before he lost consciousness.

"Damn…" Hiei growled under his breath. It had taken him forever to get Kurama to stay conscious to get him outside.

"Come on, let's get him somewhere to lay down." Lykouleon and Tetheus began to lead them to a tent hastily erected. Once Kurama was inside, laying down, Lykouleon excused himself, motioning for Youko and Kuronue to follow him.

Hiei sat down beside Kurama, having decided to wait until the red-head woke.

His eyes shot open when he heard Kurama sit up in his bed and release a breath in a hiss, falling back down. "You aren't fit to move yet." He said blandly. "Rune has been healing you in short amounts, which is all that he can manage at the moment. After all, he's apparently injured as well."

"Hiei…" He shivered slightly as he heard Kurama say his name softly. "There's something that I have to tell you." He waited for Kurama to continue, but the other seemed determined to get him to say something.

"What?" He finally settled on. 'Hn,' wouldn't be counted, and there was nothing kinder that he'd ever be caught saying, especially since he knew that Youko and Kuronue were listening outside the tent.

"I…I love you. And before you say it isn't possible, I've been trying to deny it since we've met, but since it's lasted this long, I know it's love, and I just had to tell you before…Before I lost my nerve." Kurama finished quietly, leaving Hiei to sit and stare at him. What could he say to that? Well, other than…

"And I care for you too." It was the best that he could say at the moment. Honestly, he'd kill Youko and Kuronue yet for ruining the possibility of anything more being said. Yet, it seemed that was all that Kurama desired to see, because he smiled and let his eyes slip closed again, falling back asleep.

Yusuke

"Ok, Koenma should be getting in contact with you soon." He said, shaking hands with Lykouleon. "Hope to see all of you again soon!"

He turned to the portal, watching as Touya walked through, alone. Jinn had given his life to keep the yokai from going after Hiei and Rath. Kurama gave a hug to Rune before he and Hiei walked through, hand-in-hand, something Yusuke never believed he'd ever see. Thatz and Youko were trading a few jewels, only for Youko and Kuronue to run through the portal as Cesia came running up, screaming about her necklaces, which were stuffed in Youko's clothes. He gave on last nod to the new friends they all had made and walked through the portal, back into his own world.

A/N: Whew, we've finally reached the end. And I hate it. I think this fic was terribly written and it's driving me insane. However, I'm not changing anything, because I must learn from my mistakes, so I hope to see you all next time!

Rath: And don't forget to but the hell out of her for a new DK fic! Remember that she'll choose one of you DK fans from your reviews to run her ideas by to see what she'll post next!

Kuro: See you all later! Oh, and Moon silver is just something I thought up on the spot.
