Shuichi sighed, his captivity had already lasted longer than a week. They had been fed by their loved ones every day. However the fox knew that something wasn’t right. There was something… off. He looked at Shippo, who was currently sleeping in his fox form, then he looked at the others. They seemed happy to remain as they were as long as their loved ones were okay.
Leaving the room, Shuichi walked to the toilet. His clothing had been changed into something similar to Youko Kurama’s. a gift from Kuronue. However the cloth was a blood red trimmed with gold. His green eyes looked almost sad as he finished his business in the toilet. He wanted to believe that the one that served him dinner was the true Kuronue, however something told him differently.
As he approached the door to the room, Shuichi could hear painful moans coming from the other side. Noticing it ajar, he pushed the door open and the sight before him shocked him. There, chained up like a dog, was Youko Kurama, his other half, before him stood a white tigress. Facing Shuichi she smiled, her sharp teeth glistening in the candle light of the room. “If you’re going to stay, come in and close the door. If you are not, close the door on your way out.” She dragged her sharp claws down Youko Kurama’s chest. “Either way I am going to have fun with my fox.” Shuichi entered the room and closed the door. The tigress’ smile widened. “It was fun before, now it shall be even more so. You and he were one and the same. With Yusuke Urameshi, Hiei and Kazuma Kuwabara you defeated the Four Saint Beasts.” Her eyes narrowed. “You allowed a mere human to destroy Byakko, my father.” Shuichi’s eyes widened as her claws ripped into Youko Kurama’s flesh again. Neither he nor Youko had known that Byakko had descendants. “My name is Byanka.” She motioned to the table. “Please sit and help yourself to some tea and scones.” With a vicious swipe she knocked Youko Kurama unconscious.
“Why are you hurting him?” Shuichi asked as he poured himself some tea.
“My master doesn’t like white foxes, especially kitsune.” She said. “Personally I prefer the painful screams of the red variety, much more despairing and delicious I have to admit.” Her eyes glittered as he ran towards the door. “Master said that I can have fun with you if you are a bad foxy. I look forward to seeing you in here Shuichi Minamino.” Fleeing the room he could hear Byanka’s crazed laugh and a pained scream as she slashed Youko Kurama again.
Shuichi ran into the bedroom and dived onto the bed, ears flat against his skull and tears running down his cheeks. If he were a Koorime he would have been worth a fortune. “What’s the matter, Shuichi?” A concerned voice asked. “What happened? You can tell me.” Shuichi looked at Shippo.
“Whoever has us captive also has a white tigress, named Byanka, torturing Youko Kurama as we are kept here. If my other half is treated like that, then what are the others being condemned to?” Shippo stroked his hair.
“I am sure that all is fine, Shuichi. Why would they harm Youko Kurama anyway? It would be bad policy if they did. I’m sure that they’d rather you to be happy than angry.” Shuichi nodded.
"You're right, Shippo. Maybe I was seeing things. Maybe I wanted to see him so badly that any situation was preferable to not seeing him at all. I just took things too far.” Shuichi said with a slight smile. “I just wish that I knew what Youko Kurama was doing. I miss him so much.” Shuichi closed his eyes as a memory started to surface, and it wasn’t a pleasant one.
Flashback
Shuichi first felt the physical pain caused by the separation, following that came the mental turmoil when the agonised red kitsune saw the white kitsune, then his surroundings. One of his best friends was standing before him and a not-so-close friend slumped against a wall. He knew that they weren’t alone. There was another in the room, even if it was a spirit. A if he knew that Shuichi knew that he was there, the bodiless entity entered the body of Kuwabara , and using the body he released Youko Kurama from his prison. Picking up the taller kitsune, the human left the room and didn’t return for a while.
Shuichi banged against the chamber walls, trying to escape from his prison, but the walls refused to give. “It’s no use, Kurama.” He heard Kuwabara, or rather the creature, say. “You can’t escape, so don’t try. I don’t want any damage to your wonderful body.” Then he left Kuwabara’s body and possessed Jin instead and disappeared only to return a few moments later. He then took Kuwabara’s body once more and released Shuichi before possessing him. Shuichi struggled to no avail.
‘Who are you? What do you want?’ He asked, trying to get free but the spirit tightened its grip.
‘I am Kagotsuchi, lord of the fires of Reikai.’ The spirit said in reply. ‘I want your body, Kurama, or one of those I hold. I am tired of being without a body, having lost mine after my mother died. You seem nice and strong, maybe you will be the one I shall have. A god in the body of a demon, that would be nice.’ The spirit said. ‘Now all you have to do is sleep, my little friend.’ He said. The next thing that he remembered was waking up in the room he was in
End Flashback
“Reveal yourself, Kagotsuchi!” Shuichi shouted. “You’re not tricking me anymore, murderer!” An eerie laugh resounded through the room. “I remember what you did to me, what you made Kuwabara do to me.” A ghostly figure appeared like a person-shaped flame.
“So one remembers.” He said. “However I am no murderer. I simply released the one I didn’t want. He was alive the last time I saw him.” Kagotsuchi laughed. “Your human friend has a strong body, then again Youko Kurama was light.” He snapped his fingers and the mirror changed to a monitor showing their friends back in Ningenkai. “Hard to believe that they met by accident. I’ll leave this on for you to watch if you desire. Dinner shall arrive shortly.” Kagotsuchi said before disappearing.
“Bastard, I’m not done with you yet!” Shuichi shouted. “Your scheme won’t work!” Shippo stared at Shuichi while Jin and Kuwabara both approached him, seeing the agonised look on his face. He looked at them both and started to cry. Kuwabara awkwardly held him, trying to imagine that it was his beloved Yukina, not a red-haired, fox-eared guy. “Do you remember anything at all?” Either of you?” Both shook their heads. “Kuwabara, you attacked us, by that I mean myself and Youko Kurama, you were under the influence of that sorry excuse for a god. We were brought to either Mukuro or Yomi’s place where myself and Youko Kurama became two separate entities. From there we came here, and you know what has happened since then.” Shuichi approached the monitor, watching Kurama and Kuronue. The pair seemed worried and scared, and lip reading, he knew he had been mentioned. He wanted to go home.
