Chapter 5:
At lunch time, they decided to go back to Marinette's house to get some goodies from the bakery. Adrien told his bodyguard, who grunted. Kuwabara had looked at the limo with wide eyes.
"You go to school in a limo..."
"Yeah." Adrien said, scratching the back of his neck and a shy smile on his lips.
"That is awesome." Kuwabara said with a wide grin.
Adrien never thought it was awesome or anything. But the fact Kuwabara thought it was made him feel cool.
"I guess." the blond said with a shy laugh.
"You guess?! I would love to ride in a limo EVERYWHERE! Urameshi would get so jealous." Kuwabara said with a grin.
It faltered for a moment. Yusuke hadn't called him for a week. Since he had called him at three o'clock in the morning that is. It made the carrot top worry.
Adrien blinked at the carrot top. He was going to ask Kuwabara who Urameshi was, however he wasn't sure if he wanted to know...or if he should even ask. He had only just met him. Well as Adrien. He shook his head and just smiled up at the carrot top.
Marinette smiled as she walked next to Kurama. She was happy that Adrien had joined them and that he was getting along with the two boys. Although it was more with Kuwabara. Her heart felt a little tingle of...jealousy? But why? She shook her head.
"Are you alright?"
She blinked and saw Kurama looking down at her with concern. She blushed before looking away.
"Y-yeah...just hungry is all." she said.
She heard a snicker from behind her. Alya and Nino were following from behind. She could hear her friend enjoying the scene. Kurama looked at her. He didn't believe her but he let it go.
They got to the bakery in five minutes. It was very close to the school. It was so close that it didn't make sense how Marinette use to be late to school almost every single day. Mrs. Dupain-Cheng wasn't expecting all of them heading over for lunch. However, there were still some left over soup and dinner from the day before. They all chose which they wanted and thanked the woman, before heading up stairs.
"Welcome to our room I guess." Kuwabara said as they entered what was once the living room.
He went to the tv and turned it off. Adrien instantly noticed the cute little calico cat that sat up from the bed.
"Mew!"
"Aww Eikichi, did you miss me?" he said.
He put down the soup on the side table and scooped up the little kitty. He snuggled against his beloved cat, a wide grin on his lips.
Adrien felt his heart jump. He didn't know why but seeing how gentle Kuwabara was with the cat...well he felt his heart ache for that kind of attention. He shook his head as a blush crossed his face. He was having a hard time already dealing with his feelings for his Lady. He didn't need to get mixed up with another person, let alone a guy! His heart hurt so much at knowing his Lady didn't seem to love him back. He had convinced himself it wasn't her fault. It was his fault for not making his feelings clear to his Lady.
Kurama noticed the blond's blush. He raised an eyebrow at this. He didn't seem like the gay type. However, looks could be deceiving. It wasn't like Kurama had a problem with it either. He was bisexual after all...well his demon side was, not his human side. He was certain his carrot top friend was straight. He had to be straight. How the carrot top reacted to Itsuki's confession of loving Sensui...well there was no denying Kuwabara found it disgusting.
But there was something off with Kuwabara. Kurama had a suspicion that Kuwabara might be in 'rebound' mode. It was only a few months since Yukina rejected his feelings for her. It would make sense, although why a guy? Kurama didn't want to jump to any conclusions. Not until he disgusted it with the carrot top.
The redhead's thoughts were interrupted when Kuwabara stood up suddenly. He looked out the window.
Kuwabara felt that evil aura again and it was close. This time it was more dangerous. The one before was dangerous, but on a 'temper tantrum' level. What he was feeling now was possible lives being lost...
He was still holding Eikichi and gently put him down on the bed.
The rest of the group looked at him.
"Are you okay?" Marinette asked.
Kuwabara looked at the bluenette. She saw fear in those brown eyes, however it disappeared.
"Y-yeah. I forgot to get a drink. Be right back..." he said.
As he passed Kurama he quickly whispered something to him. Adrien noticed as well as the look. There was something going on. Kuwabara went downstairs. Kurama looked as if he was about to say something.
"I have to use the bathroom. I'll be back." Adrien said with a smile.
He had beaten Kurama to the punchline. Kurama glanced at the blond with a suspicious look. Adrien noticed that look, even though it was quick.
Kurama was about to make the same excuse. Kuwabara had informed him about the evil aura and they were going to check it out. But the blond had put a wrench in that plan. Adrien began to head down stairs.
"There's a bathroom up here." Alya said, raising her eyebrow at the blonde.
"Yeah, but I also forgot a drink." he said with a warm smile.
Marinette felt her cheeks slightly heat up but her heart didn't flutter as much.
Before Kurama could say anything else, Adrien had gone downstairs. The redhead couldn't say the same thing, otherwise the rest of the group would get suspicious. He sighed. He hoped Kuwabara realized he wasn't coming and didn't go after the evil aura by himself. However, Kurama knew the carrot top too well...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kuwabara had snuck out the side door, without either of Marinette's parents noticing. He stood there. He was getting very nervous. That aura was coming closer and it was giving him the chills.
'Where is he...' Kuwabara said, his hands in his pockets.
"Kuwabara?"
Kuwabara jumped. He hadn't been surprised like that in a long time. Not since his dimensional sword had been awakened. He had been so preoccupied by that evil aura, it was the only thing he could sense.
"Oi..." he began, about to yell at the redhead but froze.
There was Adrien. He had a concern look on his handsome face.
"Oh...hey. What's up Adrien?" Kuwabara said.
He had to hold back the chill he got. The aura was growing stronger and he didn't know how much more he could take. He couldn't stand around too much longer. If Kurama didn't show up soon, he was going to go after it by himself.
"Well, I noticed you looked nervous. I wanted to see if you were okay." Adrien said, rubbing the back of his neck as he gave Kuwabara a sideways look.
Kuwabara's face flushed slightly and his heart fluttered. That look was so adorable...
He shook his head.
"I just needed some air, that's all. I'll be back in a bit." Kuwabara said before giving the blond a wide grin.
It was Adrien's turn to feel fluttering in his chest.
Screams broke the silent air. Kuwabara growled and winced. Adrien turned serious and looked in the direction of the screams.
"We should get inside..." Adrien said, however Kuwabara had started running.
Adrien's eyes widened as he saw the boy run across the street, dodging; barely, the cars as the light was still green.
Plagg flew out from his jacket.
"You just gonna let him go off by himself?" the cat said with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course not. Plagg transform me!" Adrien said, before his body was surrounded by the green light and was replaced with Chat Noir.
He rushed towards the screams and where the carrot top had rushed off to.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I am Pyromancer!"
Kuwabara's eyes widened when he had gotten to the scene. Fire was everywhere. Buildings were on fire, people were screaming as they ran away. A little girl was crying on the sidewalk, covered in soot, crying for her mother. Kuwabara lowered his head as his body shook with rage.
"Bastard..." he growled.
Kuwabara clenched his fists, his Spirit Sword appearing in it.
"Yer goin' down!" Kuwabara growled before charging towards the man.
The one causing it was wearing a firefighter outfit. However it was black with purple outlines. The visor to the helmet was down but it was a see through purple color.
The man laughed before moving his hand forward. Kuwabara continued his charge about to cut the man in half. The man snapped his fingers and a fireball came towards Kuwabara's face. His brown eyes widened. Just before it hit the carrot top felt, he was tackled. He dispelled his sword as he tumbled with the person who had saved him.
Once he stopped he looked up to see Chat Noir on top of him. Kuwabara blinked up at the cat, who gave him a cheshire grin.
"We have to stop meeting like this." the cat said as he winked at the blinking carrot top.
Kuwabara blushed slightly.
Chat stood up and took out his baton, swinging it around. Kuwabara got up and reformed his sword.
"Thanks." Kuwabara said.
Even with Chat Noir on the scene, the carrot top still had a sickening feeling in his stomach. Something really bad was going to happen...
"You should get out of here. My Lady should be coming any minute." Chat said giving Kuwabara a grin before rushing at Pyromancer.
Kuwabara growled before following behind the cat.
The akumatized man started to snap his fingers at the cat, who easily dodged them. Kuwabara rushed the guy and was about to strike him but was kicked in his stomach. He skidded backwards a bit before falling to one knee. He gritted his teeth as he held his stomach.
"Hey! I told you to get out of here!" Chat growled, running over to the teen.
"Yeah, well, I don't run." Kuwabara gritted out before standing up.
Chat's eyes widened. He was impressed at how he took that hit and was still able to stand.
'Who is this guy...' Chat thought.
"Duck!" Kuwabara shouted before tackling Chat to the ground.
The fireball had just missed the two. Kuwabara growled as he was on top of Chat, who was blinking up at the carrot top. Kuwabara stood up and rolled up his sleeves. He didn't need his sword for this guy. He was going to go mano a mano!
He rushed the guy, dodging each snap; though not as gracefully as Chat Noir. Kuwabara was able to get in close and punched the guy's stomach. Pyromancer stumbled backwards coughing. Kuwabara stood there with his arm in the air, a wide grin on his face.
Chat's eyes widened. He had never seen anyone like this guy. He was able to hold his own against an akumatized victim without using a Miraculous. Not to mention take a hit from one.
'He's amazing...' he thought.
The first time he had seen his Lady stare down that akuma made image of Hawkmoth's face, he felt the same way. That she was amazing. His heart still skipped at how amazing she looked while cleansing all the akumas all at once. He fell in love with her at the declaration that they, her and Chat Noir; would always protect Paris. As partners. As a team.
Chat was snapped back to reality when he heard Kuwabara yelp. He blinked before turning towards the sound. He saw the carrot top had picked up the little girl, who was still crying. It seemed one of the fireballs had headed towards her. Kuwabara had scooped her up just in time. But while the carrot top had protected her, he ended up getting a nasty burn on the back of his calf. Chat's eyes widened before they narrowed. He spun his baton and rushed at Pyromancer.
Kuwabara growled as he fell to his knees, hissing in pain. He held the little girl close to his chest. He grunted as he tried to stand up but yelped again. He could feel the pain travel up his spine. He gritted his teeth.
'You got worse from Urameshi, so get yer butt up.' he scolded himself.
He grunted as he forced himself to stand. He turned around and his eyes widened.
Pyromancer was grinning as he was about to snap his fingers.
"I think it's time for you to cool off!" Chat said.
Chat hit the akuma with his baton, sending Pyromancer flying backwards a couple feet. The cat stood in front of that carrot top. He hissed at the akumatized man. His tail was straight and his ears alert. If he had furr it would be straight up. His baton was out and ready to protect both Kuwabara and the girl.
Kuwabara looked at Chat in awe.
The man had gotten up and growled. A purple glow went around the visor. Kuwabara shivered as he could feel the evil presence.
Chat growled. He was ready for the attack and would protect Kuwabara and the little girl with his life if he needed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Marinette was starting to feel uneasy. Both Kuwabara and Adrien had been gone for too long. Kurama was worried as well. He already knew Kuwabara probably went to check out that aura by himself. But why was Adrien not back yet?
A beep went off. Alya pulled out her phone.
"My Ladybug alert!" she said, unlocking her phone and clicking on the app.
"Chat Noir is holding out with the help of this young man. However, they need Ladybug's help. Where is Ladybug?" the reporter said.
In the background was Kuwabara dodging fire blasts, with Chat watching.
Marinette's eyes widened.
Kurama grimaced.
'You are worse than Yusuke sometimes...' Kurama thought before turning and rushing out of the room.
"Hey where are you going?!" Alya asked.
"Kuwabara needs me." Kurama said before leaving.
"I-I'm going to look for Adrien." Marinette said before rushing off herself.
Once she left the building she transformed into Ladybug.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chat gripped his baton so tight his fingers hurt. He hissed again as he could hear the man laugh. It was an evil sounding laugh. It sent shivers down Kuwabara's spine as he heard it too. He tightened his hold on the girl; who was still crying.
Chat's tail started to swish. Kuwabara blinked as he noticed the movement. He knew that movement. Chat was going to pounce! But the crying girl in his arms had more of a priority. His brown eyes looked around. He needed to get her out of here. The problem was he didn't want to leave the cat by himself. This akuma was very dangerous and Chat could get seriously hurt. Sure, the cat could handle himself. Even so, one slip or fall and it would be game over for the feline hero.
Kuwabara growled. He held the girl tighter with one arm before grabbing Chat's collar.
Chat's eyes widened as he felt himself being pulled back. He looked up at Kuwabara who had been the one to pull him away.
"We gotta get outta here." Kuwabara said looking hard into those green eyes.
Chat blinked up at him before trying to pull away from the carrot top's grip. He found he couldn't. Kuwabara gave him a sideways grin.
"Seems it works on a humanoid cat too."
Chat didn't know what he meant before he was swung over the teen's shoulder. Kuwabara ran, dodging fireballs, though not gracefully. He turned sharply down a narrow street and exited out the other end, however he was now trapped as it was a dead end.
Chat snapped out of his shock and struggled on Kuwabara's shoulder. It surprised Kuwabara and he let the cat go. Chat jumped back, his baton in front of him as he faced Kuwabara.
"I appreciate the save, but I had it."
"I wasn't going to leave you alone. Not when I need to get her somewhere safe." Kuwabara said nodding to the girl, who had finally calmed down and was snuggled into Kuwabara's chest.
Chat relaxed his stance and blinked at him. So, he didn't want him fighting the guy alone? Chat was so use to fighting against the akuma by himself. His job was to distract them so his Lady could figure out a way to stop them. He lowered his baton and gave the teen a look. He didn't know what to say to that. He didn't know how to feel about that.
Chat shook his head.
"But I wouldn't have been alone, my Lady..." he started.
"I know, she would have come but you still would have been fighting that guy alone! I understand that she does the capturing thing and whatever, but two should be fighting while she figures out a plan! It's like a three person job! Two to distract and one to make the plan! It's not fair that you gotta fight it by yerself!" Kuwabara huffed before wincing.
The running hadn't been good on his injured leg. Luckily he had a high tolerance for pain. He also didn't have time to worry about the burn. He wasn't even feeling the pain, although he figured it was adrenaline pumping through his veins, keeping him from feeling too much of the pain.
Chat's eyes widened before going back to normal. It would be helpful for another partner. It was hard sometimes to protect his Lady. If she ever got hurt...
His chest hurt at the image of a broken and bleeding Ladybug on the ground. He didn't know what he would do if she got hurt. If he had failed in doing his job and protecting his Lady. His thoughts were interrupted at an evil chuckle. Chat's ears twitched at the sound and turned in the sound's direction.
Pyromancer walked into the little open space. He had started a fire behind him. There was no way out. Kuwabara held the girl closer to his chest with one hand. He had his Spirit Sword out in front of him. Chat shook his head and stood next to the carrot top, his baton in front of him.
'Where are you my Lady...' he thought as he gritted his teeth.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ladybug and Kurama had arrived at the scene at the same time. They both saw Pyromancer running off. Neither of them acknowledged the other. They both had their friends; their partner's safety in mind.
The redhead rushed in the same direction as the akuma had gone in. He had a feeling that's where Kuwabara and Chat had run off in.
Ladybug threw her yo-yo, swinging herself to the closest building. She felt a bug's eye view would help find her friends. She could see Kurama below, following the fire trail left by the akuma.
She flinched at the damage. If her Lucky Charm wasn't able to fix everything, the damage would be horrible. It was a lucky thing it would. Her blue eyes noticed a side street with flames filling the entire street. Her eyes widened before turning to anger. This akuma wasn't like others she had faced before. He was violent. Sure, other Akuma's she had faced were violent, but not almost killing people violent.
A thought of Timebreaker came to her head, causing her to mentally flinch. Timebreak was able to steal people's energy to try and go back in time. With every person she touched would steal energy from them. Once it was stolen, they would disappear. They would cease to exist. They would basically die. It was lucky that Timebreaker had gone back in time, with Ladybug attached to her via her yo-yo. It also helped as she ran into herself. There were two Ladybugs but also two Timebreakers. Luckily, with both Ladybugs, they were able to defeat the girl; who was a classmate name Alix.
Chat had been so happy to see two Ladybugs. He even said he was in heaven. Ladybug smiled fondly at the memory. That is until she remembered how before she went back with Timebreaker, he had taken a hit for her. Ladybug was about to get her energy stolen and Chat Noir took the hit. He had almost...
She shook her head. She needed to hurry and save her kitty. She swung her yo-yo towards the building.
Kurama had run into the problem of the fire blocking his way. He growled. How was he going to get through that without getting burned or dying? He looked around and found a door that was wide open. He smirked. Maybe he could reach the back of the building through there. He rushed into the building and headed, hopefully, to his friend.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chat growled. He needed to slow the guy down. He was sure his Lady had heard about the destruction by now. He had noticed the reporters earlier and was certain she had seen the report. Not to mention the trail this akuma had to make. He just needed to hold out until then.
Chat put his baton away, making Kuwabara look at him.
Chat's clawed hand shot up into the air. Black bubbles began to swirl around his hand.
"Cataclysm!" he shouted as he brought his hand back down close to his body. He closed his hands into fists before posing with his claws out.
Kuwabara's eyes widened as his jaw dropped.
Chat rushed Pyromancer before touching the ground at the akuma's feet. The cat had moved so fast, the akumatized man couldn't move in time and had got his foot caught in the crumbled ground that was before his feet.
Pyromancer growled and tried to grab at Chat, who jumped back.
"Now to wait for my Lady..." he said.
As if on cue, his Lady landed next to him.
"Chat!" she gasped out.
Before he could say some witty comment, he found her arms around him. His eyes widened before he closed them, wrapping his arms around her.
Kuwabara's heart hurt. Kuwabara wasn't straight as everyone thought he was. He was bisexual. He had actually had a crush on Yusuke but the ice maiden had stolen his heart from the moment he laid his eyes on her. The reason he had over acted at hearing Itsuki's confession of his love for Sensui wasn't the confession itself. It was how dark he had confessed. How could you swear to love someone but want to watch them fall into darkness. To see their pure heart be tainted with darkness? To watch them be torn from the inside out? To develop a multiple personality disorder to cope with that darkness? That wasn't love. Not to Kuwabara.
Love was to want to see them grow. To see the one you love happy and protected. To watch your loved one succeed in everything they do. To love themself and work on being the person they wished to become. To be supportive to each other and encourage each other. That was love. Itsuki was just a demented demon.
It was here Kurama had came out of a building. Kuwabara's eyes blinked as he saw the redhead rush towards him.
"Are you alright?" he asked, his rose whip in his hand.
Kurama had pulled it out while rushing through the building. He could smell smoke from in the building and wanted to be ready for an attack.
"Kurama! Your rose whip! Hide it!" Kuwabara hissed.
And it was Kurama that warned 'him' to keep his powers hidden. Kurama let out a sigh of relief but didn't put away his weapon.
"No one saw me. I'm cautious." Kurama said with a smile.
Kuwabara glared at the redhead.
"Double standards much..." he mumbled, making Kurama laugh.
He was just happy his friend was alright. However his green eyes noticed the sleeping child in the carrot tops hands.
Kuwabara gave him a sideways grin before dispelling his sword. He moved that hand to scratch the back of his head; not lessening his grip on the girl. Kurama smiled. That would explain why Kuwabara hadn't been back in the street. Kuwabara never ran away from a fight. He may have been impulsive but unlike Yusuke, he was able to make quick plans while being impulsive. The redhead remembered Kuwabara's fight against Byakko. He had lead the cat demon's beasts down the long narrow path and had shish kabobed them with his Spirit Sword, which had extended at the right moment.
Kurama chuckled at the memory making Kuwabara raise any eyebrow at his friend. Before he could ask what was so funny, the akuma screamed. The two turned back to see an angry akuma consumed in flames. Kuwabara's eyes widened.
Chat and Ladybug had already stopped hugging. Ladybug had gone to reach for the helmet, Chat saying he believed the akuma was there. That was when Pyromancer exploded into flames. Both superheroes jumped back. Chat had taken out his baton and looked ready to fight.
"Jeez, I didn't even hear him say flame on!" Kuwabara said with wide eyes.
Chat had heard the comment and laughed. He didn't realize the carrot top had his sense of humor. Ladybug rolled her eyes and gave a sigh.
'I knew it.' she thought shaking her head.
However, she couldn't think of anything else when she dodged a fireball.
"My Lady!" Chat shouted, stopping his laughter; before jumping away from a ball going towards him.
Kuwabara growled. He wanted to help. But he couldn't. Not with the sleeping girl in his arms. Kurama knew how hard it was for Kuwabara to just sit back. He sighed. He tightened his grip on his rose whip and was about to rush in to help.
"Lucky Charm!"
Ladybug threw her yo-yo in the air and like before an object fell from the sky. It looked to be something useful as it was red with black polka dotted fire extinguisher.
This stopped the redhead. He stood there with his rose whip looking as if it was going to attack the akumatized man. It was here he realized these two were professionals. They could handle it themselves. He smiled before putting his weapon back into his hair.
Chat, who had been preventing the akuma from snapping anymore fireballs, grinned.
"Something useful for once, eh my Lady?" he said.
She grinned before tossing her cat the charm. He caught it.
"It's time to chill out!" Chat said before spraying the akuma down, extinguishing the flames that had surrounded his body.
Pyromancer screamed as if in pain before the flames had vanished. Chat tossed both the extinguisher and the helmet over to his Lady.
Ladybug threw the helmet on the ground, cracking it. Out came the little black butterfly.
"You've done enough evil today little akuma." she said before capturing it.
"Gotcha!" she said before opening the yo-yo.
"Bye bye little butterfly." she said as the pure white butterfly flew away.
She threw the extinguisher into the air.
"Miraculous Ladybug!" she shouted.
A great pink glow surrounded all the buildings and objects that were on fire. Everything was fixed and it looked as if nothing had happened. The pink light surrounded the man, who was on the ground. He looked around confused.
"Whu?" he said blinking.
"Pound it!" Ladybug and Chat said with wide grins.
Kuwabara and Kurama looked on in awe as the damage had vanished. It was like an illusion. They had seen her use Lucky Charm once but it didn't have much to fix. This was just amazing.
'She is amazing...' Kurama thought before shaking his head.
Now he had a dilemma. If Ladybug wasn't Marinette; who he suspected she was, then that would mean he had started to fall for two ladies. He wasn't the playboy type, even if he looked like one. Kurama looked back at Kuwabara. The carrot top let out a relieved breath. However, now that everyone was safe, he felt the pain in his leg. It didn't get healed along with everything else.
Kuwabara hissed as he fell to his knees, pulling the girl closer to his chest. Kurama looked at the carrot top with worried emerald eyes. Chat's ear's twitched before looking over at Kuwabara. He blinked. He didn't notice Kurama before now. But he couldn't think about it as he rushed over to Kuwabara. He wearily looked the boy over. The carrot top was in pain, it was obvious but he was trying not to show it. Kuwabara was doing a pretty good job, except the light trembling of his body.
Ladybug had followed behind her partner. She gasped at seeing the burn.
"Are you okay!" she asked.
Ladybug was confused. Normally when she used Lucky Charm everything would be fixed. However there hadn't ever been a physical injury before. She hadn't thought about that before. What if someone got seriously hurt? Would Lucky Charm heal them? This proved it did not.
"I'm fine." he said with a reassuring smile.
It was here Kurama noticed the burn on Kuwabara's calf. His emerald eyes widened for a moment before turning into a calculating look. He hadn't noticed the injury before. Although Kuwabara hadn't shown any signs of being injured. He mentally cursed himself for not looking closer at his friend. Luckily he had some herbal ointment back at the house that would work with Kuwabara's quick healing aura.
"You should go to the hospital." Chat said, kneeling in front of the carrot top.
There were concern in those green eyes. Kuwabara blushed slightly before shaking his head. He grunted as he tried to stand up. Kurama was the first to reach to help him. Kuwabara swatted his friend's hand away, still holding the sleeping girl.
"I'm fine!" he growled.
"Here, let me take her." Ladybug said with a warm smile.
Kuwabara blinked at her before looking at the sleeping girl. He nodded before handing the girl to Ladybug. She smiled at him. Her earing beeped making Kuwabara blink again.
"My Lady, you're about to transform back!" Chat said, standing up.
It was here his ring beeped.
"So are you! But I'll be quick." she said giving him a wink.
She turned back to Kuwabara.
"Thank you." She said with a smile before holding the girl tight.
She swung her yo-yo and went off to find the girl's parents.
Kuwabara watched her for a moment before feeling like he wanted to pass out. It seemed the girl was the only thing keeping him from passing out from the pain. So once the girl was safe, his body relaxed. Unfortunately, that made him feel the pain he had been suppressing during the fight. His eyes rolled into the back of his head.
Kurama and Chat yelling his name was the last thing he heard before everything went black.
Note on ML: In the show no one really got hurt so with Kuwabara's injury not healing...I'm making that up.

"Anything interesting?" Yusuke asked.
His voice sounded weird. Kuwabara couldn't put his finger on what it was.
"Nothing really...why?" Kuwabara asked.
"No Reason." came the raven haired teen's response.
It was obvious something was bothering him. What was with his friends today? He still had to finish his conversation with Kurama. Yet change it from focusing on him and back to what was on the redhead's mind. He did say it was a couple things. So the whole 'Marinette being Ladybug' thing was just the tip of the iceberg.
"Spit it out Urameshi" Kuwabara said.
He heard Yusuke let out a sigh.
"Are you okay?" Yusuke asked.
Kuwabara blinked.
"Whu?"
"Just...are you hurt?"
Kuwabara blinked again. What did he mean?
"Again...whu?"
"Damn it Kuwabara! I saw it on the news!"
See you all in the next chapter!
