They ran quickly through the icy rain and into the forest of tall bamboo. They didn’t look back until the cries of the guards reached their ears. Two burrs stopped to gaze at the work they had done. The silver fox looked into the crystal clear reflection and then smiled triumphantly at his partner. They gave a laugh and continued to run into the night, back to their lair to celebrate their newest treasure.
A small tinkle reached both of their ears and the darker of the two turned around and raced after the glittering chain of his most prized and precious treasure.
“Wait! Kuronue!” The fox looked back as well to his friend.
“I need it!” Youko stopped to wait for Kuronue, but just as he reached down…
“A trap.. Run Kuronue!” It was too late though, and the trap sprang into life, sending razor sharp blades down to the trapped chimera. He cried out in pain as they penetrated his body, leaving him a bloody and dieing mess.
“NOO!!!” Youko’s eyes widened in horror as he raced back to his dear partner.
“No! Run away and leave me! Save yourself, Kurama!” Kurama stood frozen on the spot and watched as his partner and only friend slipped away into the other world. The cries from the guards got closer and the fox took off as fast as he could. Tears rolled down his face and a pain in his chest made him stumble and place a shaking hand over his demon heart.
“K-Kuronue..” Arrows bombarded the broken hearted demon and he stood up quickly and retreated. The arrows rapidly whizzed past his head, most barely missing him. Youko dodged through the thick bamboo, ducking under the brush that grew on the forest floor and leaping over rocks and fallen trees.
‘Kuronue! Why?’ Youko tried not to look back at the demons who got closer and closer to him no matter what. Fear got to him and he looked back at the dozens of demons who were just yards away.
Kurama urged his legs to go faster and they did, but unfortunately, a sharp pain erupted from his shoulder and he cried out and stopped running to look at an arrow that had buried itself deep in his flesh. He began to run once again and hoped he would reach the thick coniferous forest in which he lived in. The bamboo was too thin to conceal himself in.
Kurama ran harder and harder until he found himself cornered between a tall, flat rock wall on two sides and a rather steep and frightful cliff on another. You tried to climb up the rock, but his shoulder was in too much pain to move. The sound of more arrows reached his ears, but before he could even dodge them, several hit their target. Two hit his back, one found itself on Youko’s left breast, a few grazed his arms and one hit is right thigh. He growled menacingly and flexed his claws.
“Looks like we’ve cornered the little thief, boys,” the leader said, picking up the mirror that laid on the ground. Kurama lounged at him angrily but a sharp punch to his gut sent him flying onto the ground. The fox whimpered and struggled to sit up.
‘This is the end, huh? Well, at least we will be able to suffer in hell together, Kuronue.’ Fear once again washed over him as one of the demons grabbed a rather large ax. His eyes watered with tears, but they didn’t fall, and he closed his eyes, excepting that his time has come.
From above the rock wall, a figure in black watched in pity as the King of Thieves was finally going to die. Fortunately though, he wasn’t ordered to bring him back dead. The figure reached into his cloak and pulled out a wand and aimed it carefully at the demons. Another fortunate thing his lord had taught him the only curse capable to kill a demons.
“Demona Eradico!” A purple flash hit the guards directly and disintegrated instantly. The man smiled and with a pop, disappeared and then with an even louder crack reappeared in front of the dying fox. He looked down at him and shook his head. He waved his wand in the air and a bundle of gauze and bandage wrap appeared..
“Don’t worry. I wont hurt you,” he said and kneeled down beside Kurama, pulling out the arrows slowly.
“Who are you?” The man in the black cloak stopped wrapping his wounds up and pulled off the hood. Gray eyes met with his golden ones.
“A friend.”

“You..!” Kurama stepped back and glared at the person who entered. The sound of his walking stick echoed through the stalls as he walked over to him.
“Why, Kurama. So good to see you again.” Kurama straightened up and calmed his nerves down.
“Lucius Malfoy… Haven’t you tormented me long enough?” The wizard chuckled and smiled softly at him.
“But, we need you, Kurama. The Dark Lord will kill you if you do not rejoin us.” Kurama got into a fighting stance and glared dangerously at Malfoy. He wasn’t going to let anyone control him. His demon side may not have shared these particular memories (which would have been useful at the moment) but he knew Youko wouldn’t join them, even if they were friends.
“I do not want to cause you anymore pain, so I think it would be best if I just take what I came here for.” He pulled his wand from his silver headed walking stick and pointed it at the red head.
“Mentis Discidium!” A flash of light filled the room and blinded Kurama. A slight tingling sensation in his gut and a sudden pain in his head made him gasp.
“Well, the pain will stop after this spell.” A high pitch wailing sound filled his head and the feeling of being torn apart filled his body. He fell to his knees with his hands clasped over his ears and let out an agonizing cry. Lucius looked down at him and sighed sadly.
“It wont be long now.” Kurama’s cries increased and soon his vice was joined by another. The feeling of being torn apart turned into the pain for fire burning his very soul. In another flash of light, Youko Kurama shot across the room and his human counterpart flew off in the other direction. His demon side blinked a few times and moaned. He looked over to the red head and he gasped in surprise.
“What the-” But before he could finish, the sound of footsteps rushed down the halls and the voices of the teachers could be heard as well. Lucius grabbed Youko and pushed him into a stall, and locked the door tightly. Kurama, the human half, lay unconscious against the wall, a bruise already formed on the back of his head was bleeding slightly.
Just then the door opened and Dumbledore, Snape and McGonagall rushed in, all shocked to see the ‘demon’ on the ground, along with a pillow and blanket, food and books. Dumbledore went over to Kurama and tilted his head up.
“Good work, Lucius. The ministry will pick him up in a bit. Let’s get him into my office.” Snape and Dumbledore grabbed the red head and both carried him out the door.
“I must return to the ministry and deal with other matters.” He smirked at the teachers who nodded and left the bathroom. The wizard’s smirk grew and he went over to the stall and opened it to face a rather angry looking fox demon.
“Malfoy,” Youko growled while glaring daggers at the human.
“Now now, friend. Let us persuade you.”

Harry, Ron and Hermione paled when they found out that Lucius Malfoy had found Kurama and the ministry was going to pick him up that day. They had just walked into the Great Hall for Lunch when they heard Malfoy gloating.
“I told you. Blind these people are. My father would have found him sooner if he was Head Master.” Ron growled and clenched his teeth and Harry tuned him out as best as he could have. Just then, McGonagall walked into the Hall and over to where the three were sitting. Her face was stiff and anger was burning in her eyes.
“You three,” she snapped, “come with me.” Her order was sharp and they immediately stood up and followed her to Dumbledore’s office. Once they were in the marvelous room, it was filled with teachers, Rufus Scrimgeour, and the unconscious form of Kurama, sitting on the floor. They all looked sourly at the three (except for Kurama).
“Could any of you,” Dumbledore began quietly, “Tell me how he got these?” He pointed at the pile of items on the desk; a Gryffindor blanket, and white pillow, a canteen and a pile of books. They paled even more and stayed quiet.
“We asked Madame Pince for the records of who took them out,” McGonagall looked at Hermione.
“They were checked out by you, Ms. Granger.” Scrimgeour cleared his throat, wishing to speak now.
“Tell us the truth. Do you have any idea what a demon could do to you? Especially Youko Kurama?” Harry clenched his fists and walked up to Kurama and stood in front of him.
“Kurama wouldn’t hurt us. He needed our help. He called to me and I answered.” Ron and Hermione looked at each other and stood beside Harry as well. Harry would have smiled, but he had to get Kurama out of there.
“A demon like him isn’t to be-” Scrimgeour was cut off by Harry.
“Isn’t to be trusted? Tell me, if he really is out to kill us, why wouldn’t he have done it yesterday, or the day before? Or maybe when he was being treated in the hospital wing when you thought he was only a muggle?” The adults stayed quiet.
“Harry, we must-” This time, Dumbledore was interrupted by the entrance door opening suddenly. Three figures came into the room, one was Hagrid holding back Botan from tackling everyone and Hiei followed behind.
“Why you! We asked you to help us find our team mate! I have the file right here that state he is no longer a threat!” Hiei went over to the three and looked over at Kurama. He kneeled down next to him and examined him. Meanwhile, Hagrid did his best to keep the ferry girl from mauling them all.
“No longer a threat? This is Youko Kurama!” The minister was red in the face. Botan pulled out a piece of paper out of her pocket and shoved it in his face, making him turn even redder. And if that wasn’t enough, Scrimgeour turned as purple as Uncle Vernon. He gave the paper to Dumbledore who nodded.
“Alright then. He is free to go.” Harry, Ron and Hermione smiled in triumph turned around to hug the living daylights out of the red head. Hiei stop them though, and turned to Botan.
“Something isn’t quite right here.”

Ah, one last chapter for you all! I’ll have at least two by the end of next week when I return from vacation! I expect to have reviews up to my ears when I return.
A small tinkle reached both of their ears and the darker of the two turned around and raced after the glittering chain of his most prized and precious treasure.
“Wait! Kuronue!” The fox looked back as well to his friend.
