Chapter 6: Suuichi's True Nature Revealed
Last time:
Kurama's communicator went off once again as Kagome was handing out slices of apple pie and ice cream.
“Excuse me but I must take this.”
“Suuichi dear, can't you leave it ring just for tonight I'm sure whoever is calling you will call again tomorrow.”
“I'm sorry mother but this call could be important. I'll be right back. Excuse me.”
He saw Kagome smile at him, sliding over his desert to his now empty seat. He smiled to her and left quickly. When he was outside once again he flipped the communicator open revealing Boton's face to him.
“Kurama! Thank god you picked up! The demons are heading your way, they'll be there in a few minutes!!!”
“We need to leave now!” He said forcefully getting the rest of the family up off their chairs.
“What? We just started desert!” Kun-loon said, protesting to his abrupt decision to leave.
“No, we all need to leave now! If we don't then I don't know what's going to happen but we need to leave, Mother we need to get you somewhere safe.”
“Suuichi you're making not sense!”
Kurama didn't bother with explanations any more, he picked his mother up off the floor and threw her over his shoulder and grabbed Kagome's arm with his other hand.
“Suuichi what is the meaning of this put me down you are embarrassing me!”
Kurama paid her no mind, he would rather suffer her wrath later then have her exposed to demons or killed by them.
When he reached the front door dragging two protesting women behind him he knew it was too late. He could feel the demons coming, it would only take them a few seconds to ascend the long flights of stairs.
“Damn it were too late!”
“Well, Well, Well. It seems you have gotten careless Kurama!”
Kurama's back tensed as he recognized that voice. Slick black hair, tall lean body and sharp onyx eyes stood before him. Karasu was alive!
“Karasu!?!?! How…” Kurama was too shocked he didn't bother to deny his connection to the demon before him.
“Your offer is a tempting one but I like the spice. I want to see you dance. I want to humiliate you in front of these people just like you did to me in the Dark Tournament!”
Kurama knew Karasu would waste no more time on words, he had run out of time to devise a plan to get the others out safely. Kurama immediately moved to the side, jumping over a kneeling Souta to get them all out of range from Karasu's attack.
“Ha so it finally begins!” Karasu yelled out as he launched himself into a forward attack.
This Time:
Kagome watched in horror as Suuichi, her fiancé, the man she believed to be human not a few moments earlier was now locked in a heated one-on-one battle with a strong demon. She had to admit he was a skilled fighter, his reflexes were outstanding for a bookworm; he was able to stay evenly matched with this demon without breaking too much of a sweat.
“Why Suuichi?… Why?” Shiori was crying; she muttered his name over and over, her chant made by a mind that could not believe her son was capable of such force, such destructive, seductive, powerful force known to skilled martial artists.
There was a sudden explosion followed by a scream of pain. The scream bounced off the walls of the shrine, echoing in an eerie way that had the demons surrounding them shivering with fear and excitement. As the dust cloud settled the two fighters were able to be seen. Suuichi was on his knees one hand supporting his torso from the floor and the other clutching a deep wound to the stomach.
Torn flesh hung from between his fingers and it took all of Kagome's will power not to run to him and heal the wound, it would leave her family and the pregnant Shiori defenseless. Blood ran freely staining the stone floor, his cloths and his left hand. She watched as he clutched it tighter as if the pain was getting worse. There was no telling if this demon was able to wield poisons, but his breathing, his color was fine, all fine except for the large amount of blood loss.
“What's the matter Kurama? Lost the will to fight? What happened to the anger you held with such passion minutes ago?” The demon sneered out. His voice taunting Suuichi, goading him on to try and strike him with such a wound. “It's not like you to allow your emotions to ruin your fight, to cloud your judgment. You didn't let it take you over so forcefully during the Dark Tournament when that lowly demon threatened to kill your mother; so why let it run you now? Is it because you have no back up? No Spirit Detective Urameshi to get you out of a tight spot?” His sneer increased with his taunting.
The demon Karasu turned his body slightly to face Kagome and Shiori, his hand stretched out palm up. He smiled at them, staring at Kagome as if daring her to lash out at him again with her words.
“Are you going to let your human mother and this woman die without a fight, with out lifting a finger in their defense; because this display you are putting on is completely pathetic and degrading of your lineage.” He tore his eyes from Kagome to stare straight back at Suuichi. “So what's the `great' Youko Kurama going to do when what's his is threatened, sit there and allow it to be taken from him!”
It was brief, too brief to notice if one had not seen the look before. Suuichi's eyes flashed red and the irises turned gold, the smooth look of his face distorted into a look of pure rage; his eyes narrowed, his lip pulled into a snarl, nose scrunched in anger, a growl low in his throat escaped passed his teeth and his eyebrows drew together in concentration of his next move.
`So he truly is a demon, but how?' Kagome thought. She glanced at Shiori who was watching the fight, watching her son carefully so afraid to blink and miss his movements as if he might disappear. She still chanted under her breath, this one a new chant; “Suuichi, please…please run…don't fight.”
A green whip emerged from Suuichi's left hand, the hand that held his injured stomach, catching Karasu off guard for that one split second and deep in the shoulder.
“You missed Kurama.” he spoke calmly as he gripped his shoulder and tore the sleeve off his dark shirt after regaining his footing from dodging so quickly. “The Kurama I know would not have missed and have my head rolling by his feet.” Karasu tied the ripped cloth around his wounded shoulder somehow, obviously the wound was not deep enough.
Suuichi stood slowly, nearly stumbling back down to the ground and grabbed his wound once more, the whip now in his right hand. His crimson bangs shaded his eyes from view of everyone, even the closest person Karasu could not see them.
“Heh…I'm rusty. Goes to show that one can get lazy if they stop fighting for a few months.” Suuichiwas smiling. “Karasu, I regret to say that today you picked the wrong kitsune to mess with.” When he lifted his face his eyes were completely gold, a molten gold that captured the light and reflected it with such intensity it was hard to stare into them.
The fighting resumed after Suuichi swung his whip in Karasu's immediate direction. The movements were stronger, faster, much more difficult and Suuichi was fighting back; blows were traded, his whip caught Karasu a few more times, small gashes where seen on the demon's chest and forearms.
Kagome tore her eyes away from the battle to face Shiori and envelope her in a hug. The woman was still muttering, preying for her sons safety. She was telling him to run, to flee and save himself but he was unable to hear those words and Kagome doubted that even if he could hear them clearly he would not listen to them and continue to fight; for his mothers safety, her safety, her family's safety and his as well. This also seemed to be a personal battle that dealt with the past and some tournament.
“Don't worry, everything will be alright.” Kagome spoke softly to her though her words did very little to comfort her. Kagome hugged her tighter, trying to spread warmth into the older woman's body, she went so cold with fear Kagome feared for her and the child she carried in her womb.
“How…?” Shiori whispered, her voice cracking with unshed tears and fear that seeped out of ever pore. “My son is not a fighter! He's a lover, a passionate and self-driven man trying to make a place for himself in society. I've never seen that man, that `thing' before. Never has my son been called `Kurama' nor has he ever fought before. Never in his life has he needed to lift his hand and hurt someone so how did he learn such violence? Where?”
Another scream of pain ripped from Suuichi, an explosion close to his wound dug and even deeper hole in his stomach. Both women snapped their attention to the fight at hand to find Suuichi holding his wound as it bled anew. Quickly, without thinking like second nature, Suuichi reached at the nape of his neck under his red locks for something and jumped out of the reach of Karasu's attack his hand covering his wound once more. When he landed from the flip on his feet the wound ceased to bleed and in place of his hand a patch of glossy green leaves covered the wound preventing any more blood loss.
“Damn…” Karasu cursed and continued to attack Suuichi with glowing balls of lime green light.
Karasu stopped his attacks when Suuichi dodged expertly away from his glowing hand, stood straight and closed his eyes with a sigh. He took a few deep breaths, drawing something from the air. His hair bled blonde and curled into tight waves.
“Karasu! Not here!” Suuichi yelled out and ran to the demon now gone blonde.
His eyes snapped open to reveal blue irises. “Now, lets stop toying around. Transform Kurama! I want to kill you at the peak of your power when you finally understand there is nothing you can do to save these mortals.” Karasu yelled out and threw a glowing lime green ball towards Suuichi which exploded near his face.
Suuichi threw up his arms to protect himself, knowing Karasu's attack was a bomb made of demonic energy even thought he couldn`t see a thing. The shockwave from the explosion sent him a few feet back, sliding on his shoulders till he stopped some distance away from the one`s he was protecting.
Shiori turned to Kagome and asked “What does he mean by `transform'?”
“I don't know, but I'm sure things will be fine.” Kagome's lie did nothing to help matters. Shiori watched the man with confusion written clearly on her face. There was nothing Kagome could do for the young man as weaponless as she was… wait weaponless, her bow!!!
“Pst…Souta!” Kagome called out to her younger brother. He seemed to understand what she wanted when she called to him. He slowly crawled to her as to not draw attention towards himself from their demon guards.
“What Kagome? Are you planning to do anything, he looks like he's getting killed out there!” He said, trying to accuse her of a crime she had not committed to force her to help him. As if she would leave him there to fight alone against a powerful demon.
“I know Souta, but he's fine.” She whispered, Shiori was too entranced by the fight to pay attention to their words. “He's a demon, I should have figured that out earlier but I've gotten too comfortable not fighting that I didn't even notice his energy signal.”
Souta nodded accepting the fact that he was able to fend for himself and that his older sister was going to help him.
“What do you need me to do?” he asked, he was determined to help his sister in any and every way he could.
“I need you to go to my room and get me my bow and arrows!” When had her kid brother grown up to be such an adult!
Souta nodded once more and started to crawl away from her, he didn't get too far before he was taken into a tight hug.
“Be careful Souta.” Kagome whispered into his ear and let her brother go to do his mission.
Kagome stood, covering her brother with her shadow and ran toward their demon guards and kicked him with her heels drawing all the attention to her allowing her brother a clear and unhindered path to the house.
The demon just grabbed her by the arm and threw her back into the circle where she and the others where being held minus the youngest one. None of the demons noticed the missing boy, and if they did they cared not for him. What could he do to them, right?
Kurama tried to steady his hand as he lashed his whip at his opponent once again. He winced as his makeshift bandages pulled at his wound. How long would it take for Yusuke and the others to arrive, he had been stalling for too long now, far too long.
“Transform Kurama! You can't hope to defeat me as you are now.” Karasu yelled to him and as if to make his point clear another bomb exploded near his ankles.
“Karasu I will not satisfy your blood lust by giving you the fight you seek, if you wish to defeat me then you will have to do it while in this form.”
There was no point in denying anything at this point, his mother and the others must have noticed the difference in speed and agility. Hell his power increased dramatically after he took that hit; a mistake in calculations on his part. He should have known Karasu was not going to hold back because he was in his human form; after all he didn't during the dark tournament, why grow a heart now.
Karasu paused and stopped his attack on himself. He was smirking. `Shit' Kurama thought and started to run towards his mother and the Higurashi family that were held captive.
“I'll kill them regardless Kurama; Transform and you might be able to save one of them.” Karasu said.
To emphasis his words, a bomb exploded near Shiori's left foot and she screamed in fright and pain as a gash appeared on her slender ankle.
He appeared in front of the group that instant after, blocking any further attacks on them and his mother.
“Karasu stop this! This fight is between you and me, don't bring them into it.”
“It's too late Kurama, they know you so they are going to die. Transform Kurama and I might spare a life or two.” He said while looking at Shiori.
Kurama growled not caring that it scared his mother and startled his `fiancé'. His fists clenched into fists, he didn't even wince as his claws dug into the palm of his hands.
He had no choice, to protect them he had to transform. Yusuke and the others were taking too long, he couldn't wait any longer.
Kurama closed his eyes and took a deep breath, steadying his nerves and calling forth the demon blood he had repressed for so long. Color left his hair turning it a silver sheen, his ears migrated to the top of his hair where they then morphed into his famous fox ears. His tail bone stretched into a fluffy silver tail and finally his cloths changed into his white robes.
He heard many gasps from behind him from both humans and demons alike.
“He lives!” “It was said that he died 17 years ago.” “Oh my god, a silver kitsune.”
The last one startled him, not only because she knew what breed he was but because it came from his `fiancé' Kagome. He would have turned to question her if he was not in a fight right now, he just turned back to give her a small glance with startling gold eyes then turned to face Karasu once again.
“You have pushed too far Karasu, to threaten me and mine in such a way. You best put up the best damn fight you have ever had because I will not hold back any longer.” Kurama growled out and launched himself in the battle; this time as an alpha Kitsune protecting his pack.
So what did you think? Again I'm sorry for the long wait and a short chapter for it. The next one will be much more interesting. Kagome is actually going to participate in the battle this time and kick some demon ass.
