Part 3: True, Deep, & All Seeing

Hiei had moved as far away from Kurama as possible. He wanted to think clearly about his feelings for the stupid youko. Kurama had angered him the night he had seduced him, and when he discovered that the youko had lost his memory, he got confused and mad at Kurama at the same time for forgetting what had happened between them. And then that damn youko blurted out that he already had a new lover and to realize that the said lover was Yusuke made him see red. He had really wanted to kill Yusuke then for daring to touch Kurama. Later when he had time to think things over, his temper abated because as possessive as he was of the youko, he could not get himself to agree to have a relationship with him. Relationships were a complete mystery to the fire youkai and for him they only meant trouble. He had told himself countless times that he was fine with the idea of Kurama and Yusuke together. Yet, every time he saw the redhead, the need to have him and be with him surged forth again. Before Kurama had lost his memory, he was sure the youko wanted him, but now that he had Yusuke, his probable chance with the youko was slim.

"Shimatta!" He snarled and punched an innocent tree. The fire demon swept his gaze across the gloomy landscape. Genkai. If he wanted Kurama back, Genkai was the only one who could help him.

******

"What?" Yusuke glared down at the shorter, older woman who eyed him back with a frosty one of her own.

"I don't need to repeat myself." Genkai turned her face away from the seething Yusuke.

"Baasan, don't do this! You know what Kurama means to me now!" He argued.

"I know. That is the reason why I'm doing this." Genkai told him sternly and pointed at his chest. "Emotions make one weak. When you are fighting, focus on your enemy. You will never be able to concentrate if I let Kurama go with you." The old lady said in a huff.

Yusuke opened his mouth to argue some more when he heard footsteps from behind him.

"We're here Genkai-baasan!" Kuwabara announced in a cheerful voice.

Yusuke turned and encountered Kurama's smiling face. The youko inclined his head at him. Yusuke swallowed.

"Well, baasan, what's it going to be? I can't wait for the next training!" Kuwabara said enthusiastically, making the redhead beside him grin.

Genkai stared at them and nodded when Hiei flitted next to the redheaded youko.

Kurama clenched his hands tightly; his smooth forehead furrowed.

"Now that everyone is here, I will give you your next training. Kuwabara and Yusuke you will go together this time." She turned to the youko. "Kurama you will team up with Hiei." She said in a commanding voice, staring Yusuke down with a glare.

Hiei looked up into the redhead who pretended not to feel the hot stare directed at him. But his tensed body betrayed him. The fire demon snorted and smiled secretly.

"What's the mission, Genkai-baasan?" Kuwabara inquired excitedly, not noticing Yusuke's sullen face.

"Hmp. You and Yusuke will go back to the training field at the back of this temple." She said in a clipped voice.

"Oh man!" Kuwabara whined.

Yusuke turned to stare at Kurama, but the youko avoided his look and fixed his gaze on Genkai.

Genkai nodded to Yusuke. The reikai tantei leader shrugged and grabbed Kuwabara by his shirt.

"Come on then you big oaf!"

"Who are you calling an oaf!" Kuwabara barked at him.

Genkai snorted at their fading voices and turned to the two demons.

"Kurama, Hiei will help you find the cure for your amnesia." She whispered in a gentle voice. Her eyes met Hiei's for a second.

The youko looked at Hiei, clashing gazes with the ruby eyes. The redhead swallowed and finally managed to nod briskly. It would not do to inquire why the fire demon was chosen to accompany him. Hiei was after all his 'best friend.'

He turned away after bowing politely to Genkai. Hiei nodded his head at the old lady. Genkai smirked once Kurama was out of earshot.

"Good luck. It's all up to you now."

"Hn." Hiei snorted but he smirked slightly in return before his face turned serious once again. "Arigato." He murmured in a stiff voice.

Genkai sighed, watching with hopeful eyes as Hiei flitted off to find the youko.

******

Kurama walked ahead and exhaled a shaky breath. Hiei always had this unsettling effect on him. On top of that, the fire youkai seemed indifferent at the prospect of his company for the rest of the journey.

"Hn. Daydreaming again?" Hiei walked beside the youko very closely.

Kurama stared at him in surprise, blinking his wide emerald eyes.

"Where exactly are we going, Hiei?" He asked quietly, mentally chiding himself. He should have asked Genkai himself earlier.

"Makai." The fire youkai blinked his ruby eyes at him and handed him a backpack. "Genkai said to give this to you."

The redhead took the bag and watched Hiei walked rapidly away from him. He sighed exasperatedly and ran after him.

Hiei smirked and glanced only once at the hurrying youko.

"We've got to hurry! It would be dark soon in the makai and I can't risk that." Hiei said in a no-nonsense manner that stung the youko all the same, but Kurama kept his silence. He knew that the fire demon meant that he could not risk going to a dangerous place like the makai at dark with a weakened demon like himself for company.

"Brat." Kurama murmured softly.

Hiei turned to him, raising an eyebrow. Kurama turned a bland face to him. Hiei blinked at him again and flitted off. Kurama cursed under his breath and ran after Hiei, leaping agilely from tree to tree, copying the fire demon's nimble movements. Then Hiei stopped suddenly, sending Kurama slamming helplessly against his compact body. Hiei calmly opened his strong arms and grabbed the youko on the waist, effectively steadying him. Kurama froze at the contact. The youko inhaled sharply and stared down at the most beautiful almond ruby eyes he had ever seen.

"H-Hiei." Kurama managed to whisper despite the tightness in his chest.

The fire demon broke eye contact and gently pushed the youko away from him. He held out a hand to the empty space before them and to Kurama's surprise, the air thickened and shimmered. Hiei turned to the youko and nodded. His face once again a mask, dark and inscrutable.

"Let's go."

******

"Tell me more about yourself."

Hiei's head snapped up and he stared at the youko. The camp fire heightened the intense hue of his ruby eyes.

"I don't have anything to tell." He answered in a clipped voice.

Kurama dusted his hands and stared down at his feet. If anything, Hiei was making conversation a lot more difficult that it already was.

"Yusuke...."

Kurama's eyes widened as he locked gazes with Hiei.

"Are you serious about him?" The fire demon asked in a bored tone accompanied by a yawn, inside though, every inch of him tensed and waited with bated breath for his answer.

Kurama remained silent. Hiei glanced at him with a frown. The youko had a stubborn glint in his emerald eyes.

"Hn." He snorted and leaped on a makai tree, leaving the redhead staring blankly in front of the fire.

Kurama shifted restlessly and rummaged through the bag Genkai had given him. He took out a large, thick blanket and splayed it on the ground near the fire. The redhead experimented and laid down gingerly. He wanted to sleep up on a tree, but the prospect of sleeping face to face with an antisocial fire demon immediately wilted the idea from his head. He could hear the sound of tiny makai creatures working industriously and sighed. He closed his eyes tightly, stubbornly ignoring the strange but somewhat familiar sounds of the woods.

"Kurama...." Hiei spoke in a whisper.

The youko did not raise his head. He shifted to his side to signal the fire demon that he was listening.

"I will have you, you know."

The youko trembled and grasped the blanket tighter against his slender form. He heard Hiei's distant chuckle.

"Goodnight." The fire demon murmured and became silent.

The redhead opened his eyes and frowned darkly. Was Hiei threatening or challenging? He bit his lips. He doubted very much if he could resist the fire youkai. He had more than enough problems curving the desire to seduce him, much more if he would decide to seduce him instead. And what about Yusuke? He could not possibly cheat on his lover or could he? He was a youko and had his needs. Yusuke would understand. You selfish bastard! Kurama snarled to himself and finally sat up, knees drawn against his chest.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Hiei growled from above him.

"I can't sleep." The youko said in an annoyed voice.

"Hn."

Kurama was startled when the fire youkai flitted and sat next to him on the blanket. The youko slowly exhaled a tense breath, controlling the shivers that coursed from his spine to his whole body. He turned to frown at the fire demon.

"Hn. Close your eyes stupid." Hiei said in a cool, small voice, bringing the crimson head to rest on his lap, tenderly smoothing the silky strands.

The youko's cheeks flushed. He stared up into the serious ruby eyes.

Hiei stared back at him, the almond eyes darkened. The redhead's gaze moved to the fire youkai's small sensuous mouth. He moistened his lips and felt Hiei's body ignite into flames before the muscular arms wrapped around his slender chest, pulling him against the hot body. Kurama could only gasp when Hiei took his mouth in a deep kiss, the calloused hands tangled on the silky crimson locks.

Hiei opened his eyes to stare at Kurama. The youko was stunned when the fire youkai suddenly pushed him down the blanket roughly. The emerald eyes snapped opened. Hiei was going too fast!

"Hiei...."

"Not now!" Hiei snarled. The ruby eyes darted furtively from side to side; the small compact body was very tense.

Kurama stiffened against the hard embrace, breathing deeply.

The youko sniffed the air and frowned darkly. Hiei gazed down at him, anticipating his next words.

"I sensed them."

"Hn." Hiei snorted and rolled off the redhead. "Get up!" He snarled, pulling him up even when Kurama was already fast up on his feet.

"Ugh!" The youko lost his breath when Hiei tackled him on the ground once again.

"Get down!" Hiei shouted.

Kurama's face was very flushed from anger.

"Get off me!" He hissed at the fire demon coldly.

Hiei glared down at him.

"If you want to die!" Hiei covered him with his body as another barrage of energy beams rained down on them.

"Shit!" The fire youkai said succinctly, ignoring the glaring green eyes.

"Kurama, the moment I get up, you--."

"I know what to do! Just get off me!" The redhead said angrily.

Hiei's eyes burned with irritation. He eyed the youko deeply.

"What are you looking at?" The youko asked in a haughty voice.

Hiei cursed darkly and suddenly disappeared. Kurama heard the sound of metal clashing against metal and flesh. He was swiftly on his knees and leaped up into the air, landing gracefully on top of a tree. He looked down grimly at a tattooed youkai that had thrown the energy beams at them.

"Rose whip!" The redhead brandished his weapon even as the youkai looked up at him.

Hiei impaled another youkai, cursing at the blood that spluttered on his cloak. He glanced up and saw the tattooed youkai aimed an energy

beam at the advancing youko.

"Kurama!" Hiei shouted. He was not going to lose the youko again! "Kurama!" Hiei shouted again. He watched in horror as the red beam zoomed straight towards the redhead.

Kurama had seen it coming and dropped to the ground agilely. Then the thorny whip lashed out and caught the tattooed youkai on the chest, sending the creature staggering on the ground writhing in pain. The youko stared incredulously when Hiei moved swiftly and stabbed the youkai ten times on the chest. The ruby eyes watched with malevolent glee as the dead weight stilled on the hard ground. Kurama stared at the dead youkai then frowned at the fire demon.

"I already killed him." He murmured softly. He took a step back when Hiei looked up and eyed him wrathfully. The youko cringed as the fire youkai grabbed him by the waist and shook him roughly.

"What the hell is the matter with you? You nearly got yourself killed, you stupid youko!" Hiei snarled, rough hands digging into Kurama's soft flesh.

The redhead gritted his teeth and pushed the fire youkai's hands away.

"I knew what I was doing!"

Hiei grabbed him fast and glared at him, the small compact body shook with anger.

"Baka!" Hiei snarled and claimed Kurama's lips in a deep rough kiss.

The youko pushed at his chest, but Hiei's grip was like metal-cast iron. They broke off at last, gasping for air. Hiei watched Kurama wiped his lips with a shaking hand.

"D-Don't do that again." Kurama panted, pushing Hiei away.

Hiei eyed him angrily.

"You wanted me too. If you wanted to resist me you know you could do it, Kurama." Hiei said softly and walked away. His eyes widened when the youko suddenly grabbed him back, pressing the taut lines of their bodies intimately.

"You know you're right. You've haunted me and you've taunted me ever since we met. I could walk away and resist you, but I won't. That's cowardice Hiei and I'm not like that at all." The emerald eyes glinted gold for a brief moment.

Hiei's body trembled. He watched with mingled awe and anticipation as Kurama's face pressed slowly against his, nearer and nearer until their breaths were on each other's faces.

"K-Kurama, it-it's you, isn't it?"

The youko's eyes registered surprise and confusion before they gleamed and burned with unmistakable desire. He closed his eyes and moaned softly, the moment his lips claimed those of the pliant red-eyed fire youkai's. Hiei pressed against him more tightly, allowing Kurama to take him up in his arms completely, seemingly melting his compact body with the youko's.

Kurama sighed with pleasure as small rough hands made feather light caresses on his silky long hair. The fire demon moved his hips suggestively against him, rubbing their arousals together. Kurama gently lowered himself on the ground with Hiei in his arms. He took several seeds from his hair and cast them carelessly around them both. Hiei watched with

half-lidded eyes as thick vines enclosed them, shrouding them from unwanted audiences. He shivered and stared down at the long slender hands that expertly shucked off his belts. He wriggled out of his black pants, blushing a little when his arousal caught the youko's undivided attention. He watched Kurama watched him and licked his lips. The youko was so beautiful when aroused, his creamy white skin alive with a rosy glow, the long red mantle of crimson hair framed the almost ethereal perfect face and the cherry red lips were wet with anticipation. Hiei groaned and pushed his body against the youko. Kurama blinked his eyes and devoured the fire youkai with his intent gaze. He slowly caressed the compact chest, bending his head to lap at the covered nipples.

Hiei trembled when the soft mouth closed in on an erect tip and the velvety tongue swirled around the nub. He writhed on the ground while the youko did the same to his other nipple, sucking, nibbling and biting repeatedly. The fire youkai sighed blissfully and pressed back on the cool earth, offering the redhead his body. It had been a long time for him and he had to admit he missed the youko's warmth against him. He opened almond eyes and stared at the emerald orbs. Kurama had stopped his delicious ministrations and was eyeing Hiei with confusion.

"Kurama?" Hiei asked in a concerned voice, thick with emotion. He raised a finger to caress the youko's face.

Kurama closed his eyes and kissed Hiei's finger, pressing the little youkai's hand against his smooth cheek.

"H-Hiei, I-I want you but-I can't." The redhead murmured in a tight, pained voice. He turned his back on Hiei and started straightening his shirt, brushing wearily at his hair.

"Nani?" Hiei gaped at him. Then Kurama's words hit him. The fire youkai cursed under his breath and tackled Kurama on the ground, pinning the slender frame under his hard body.

"What do you mean by that?" He asked in a harsh voice.

Kurama eyed him briefly and turned his face away. Hiei grasped the delicate chin roughly and forced the youko to look at him.

"Talk Kurama!"

The redhead expelled a tense breath.

"Yusuke...."

Hiei's eyes narrowed.

"What of him?"

"Nothing! He's just my lover!" The youko answered through gritted teeth. He was more angry with himself than with Hiei. Why couldn't he resist the fire demon? What would Yusuke say if he found out?

A wave of pain shot through the fire youkai's nucleus. He struggled to contain the sudden rush of rage and pressed closer to the youko, watching the emerald eyes staring mesmerized at his lips.

"I want you to finish what you've started or I'll finish it for you." Hiei growled.

Kurama froze beneath him and immediately struggled to get up. Hiei cursed and pinned him down with a forceful grasp on both wrists, waiting for Kurama to stop struggling.

"Hiei, get off me!" The youko said in warning but his eyes were pleading.

The fire youkai nestled his face on the youko's scented neck. Kurama panted and shivered with pleasure when he felt those lips against his skin.

"Kurama, make love to me, please." Hiei murmured in a small voice. His pride be damned. He wanted and needed the youko beside him and inside him. He raised his head to face Kurama. His body shuddered when he saw the answering passion in the youko's eyes.

Kurama enfolded the fire demon in a tight embrace, rolling the small body under him. They tasted each other's breaths, tongues delving deep into each other's mouths. Hiei's hands fisted on the redhead's shirt, ready to tear it from the slender body.

"N-No." Kurama whispered in a taut voice.

The youko strained from the fire demon to remove his clothes, watching the fire youkai did the same. Hiei's movements were quicker though and he bent before Kurama to help him remove the final item on his body. Then the youko crushed Hiei against his body, gasping at the erotic sliding and grinding movements the fire demon made with his hips. Kurama stilled above Hiei, watched with incredible restraint while the fire youkai licked his pink nipples. The redhead groaned aloud and pressed his chest closer to that soft mouth. He cried out when the sensitive nubs were bitten then suckled.

"H-Hiei."

Kurama slid his hands down the fire demon's smooth spine and finally settled on the soft buttocks. Hiei ground his hips against his groin, loving the sensation of their rubbing and bumping erections. Kurama bent his head and took a nipple inside his mouth, bathing it with his saliva.

"Ahn!" Hiei panted, squirming under the youko.

"H-Hiei!" Kurama breathed harshly.

Hiei bent his head between the youko's huge sex. The small hands caressed the red hair that safeguarded his shaft. He glanced up at Kurama with an evil grin before dipping his head and licking the tip. Kurama almost collapsed on top of Hiei at the intense pleasure that struck his body. He allowed the fire youkai to push him on the grass. The fire demon sat on his stomach and proceeded to attack his cock. For a few minutes, Kurama laid there, moaning, twisting and calling Hiei's name, writhing with pleasure. The hazy emerald eyes watched the fire youkai's bumping buttocks, moving in time with his sucking mouth. The youko shakily reached out to grab Hiei's lower body.

The fire demon froze his sucking mouth on Kurama's shaft when he felt a wet velvety touch on his own sex. He cried out hoarsely when he was taken wholly inside a hot and tight suction. He glanced down and saw Kurama working furiously on his length, kissing and nibbling his sex wildly.

The youko moaned softly and swallowed the fire demon's glistening sex. He slowly applied a tight suction and slipped the length from his mouth, repeating the whole process. Hiei's body was convulsing with pleasure. The fire demon began to move his hips, bending back on Kurama's length to milk the fiery youko, but Kurama grabbed him by the buttocks, crushing the fire youkai against his chest.

"I want to be inside you." He murmured in a husky voice.

Hiei turned his head and kissed him hard on the mouth.

"Do it." He whispered throatily

Kurama swallowed the lump in his throat and kissed the fire demon again, Hiei returning the favor. The youko tightened his hold on Hiei's hips and slowly guided himself.

The youko paused inside Hiei, allowing the fire youkai to get used to his size until Hiei was pushing against his hands. The redhead thrust slowly and then swiftly when Hiei slammed his buttocks against his groin. The youko pulled out halfway and slammed in hard back inside.

"Ku-Kurama!" Hiei screamed, pushing himself rhythmically against him.

Kurama sucked the fire demon's neck and pounded his hips madly inside the tight heat.

A particularly vicious thrust made the fire demon scream out his release, his essence coming out in great gouts on Kurama's pumping hands. The youko muffled his scream on the fire demon's neck. He pushed farther inside Hiei wanting to prolong the moment of indescribable ecstasy and finally laid down on the ground, taking the fire youkai's body with him. Hiei placed a soft kiss on his chest, sighing with contentment.

"Kurama...."

"Hmm?" The youko asked in a lazy voice, opening his thighs wide so that Hiei's lower body fitted him perfectly.

"Are we going to do it again?" The fire youkai asked teasingly.

Kurama chuckled softly.

"Why? Do you want more?" The redhead asked softly.

"Hn. It's my turn." Hiei answered in a soft but firm voice.

Kurama glanced up and saw the possessive hungry gleam in the ruby eyes. The youko slowly pulled out and spread himself in front of the fire youkai.

"Take me, Hiei."

He saw the little body trembled. He glanced down at Hiei and saw the already hardening length. The youko moaned softly when rough but gentle hands grasped him.

"Are you sure?" Hiei asked in a thick voice, but the hands that pumped the youko's length were determined.

Kurama bit his lips and panted. He was already very hard. His body was flushed from the tactile stimulation. Hiei pressed himself on the fox's groin, grinding his hips playfully and skillfully until Kurama was pumping his lower body. The fire youkai settled between the youko's parted thighs, caressing the sensitive inner skin. Kurama hooked his legs on the fire demon's solid chest, breathing deeply when he felt Hiei at his opening.

Hiei grasped his chin and looked him in the eye while he thrust inside the youko, bending down to swallow Kurama's groan of delight at the pleasure.

"Kurama...." Hiei pushed harder and Kurama held on to him tighter.

The slender body strained with the intensity of their coupling. Hiei rammed hard and fast inside the youko, burying his nose on the scented red hair. The youko's small gasps and groans were erotic music to his ears and drove his hips to move faster still.

"H-Hiei..." The youko cried out, throwing back his head when the climax overtook his senses.

Hiei sucked on the exposed skin of his neck, biting and marking the white skin even as he came in a rush inside the tight body.

They laid back on the grass greatly tired by the vigorous lovemaking. Hiei curled tightly on Kurama's chest lulled to sleep by the redhead's heartbeat. Kurama smiled tenderly at his lover and kissed the soft brows.

I love you, Hiei. He whispered the words inside his mind.

But he knew under the circumstances, he could never tell the fire youkai his true feelings.
