Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Hope For Fox ❯ What's a fox to do? ( Chapter 1 )

Kurama woke up, and found his self on the couch. He rubbed his eyes sleepily and got up. " I guess I forgot to go to my bed." He yawned. " Oh yeah!" He yelled running to his room. He forgot Hiei was up there.

" Hiei?" Kurama said entering the room. But when he got in, there was no one there. ` Where could, he be." He knew he did not dream Hiei coming over since his bed was messed up, showing that someone was sleeping here. " I wonder why he left." Kurama sighed. He was so tired last night he did not even hear Hiei leave. " I hope, he did not have another one of those dreams. If he did. I was no help." Kurama thought to his self. He left his room. He was still dressed in his clothes from last night. " I guess I will take a shower, then head off to school."

As Kurama walked down the street, he started feeling Hiei's ki. Hiei has come back, and was watching him from the trees. " Hiei?" Kurama called. " Hiei are you there?" Hiei jumped down from the tree. " Hn. I always thought those human things you call school was wrong." Kurama had no idea what Hiei was talking about. ` What?"

" You were so tired last night, you did not even hear me. You are a fox spirit and I would have thought you could have heard me." Kurama was still somewhat lost. But he just waved off his confusion and smiled. " Why did you leave? We could have had tea or something." Hiei looked away. " Hn." Was all he said.

" What's wrong Hiei?" Kurama walked over to him, putting both of his hands on Hiei's cheeks making Hiei stare into his eyes. " I know something is wrong. Is it the dream? Why will you not tell me?" Hiei just stared blankly into Kurama's emerald eyes. Life finally coming back into his own ruby colored eyes, he got out of Kurama;s grasp. " It does not matter!" Kurama frowned at Hiei. So it was the dream. " I wonder if something else happened in it." Kurama grabbed Hiei's arm, and started dragging him to his house. " Hiei I want you to tell me EVERYTHING that happened in that dream of yours."

" Hn. Stupid fox. What about your school?" Hiei said sounding annoyed

" You are more important to me, than any school grade. You are my best friend and something is wrong."

Hiei looked down. He felt like a child. He also felt he was being treated like one. But for some reason, he allowed Kurama to take him back to his house.

Hiei was sitting on Kurama's couch, his feet not even touching the ground. Kurama entered with tea, or at least what Hiei thought was tea. " More tea. I guess these people love it." Hiei looked into it. It was darker than the tea Kurama use to make. Hiei looked up to ask, but found his question already being answered. " it is hot chocolate. Remember." Hiei glanced back down. About to speak again, Kurama handed him a bag. "marshmallows right?" Hiei nodded. Sometimes it seemed like Kurama could read his mind. But knowing Kurama, he was surprised he was not. " Use as many as you like, I will go get something for us to eat. And then we can talk about your dream."

Hiei sighed. " Why am I having these dream's? Kurama wants me to talk to him. Hn. But he would never understand." Hiei was thinking about just getting up to leave, until he heard Kurama's voice from the kitchen. " Hiei! If you leave, I will drag you right back!" Well there was his answer. I guess he was going to be staying. He felt helpless. And it was rare for him to feel this way. Pictures started flashing threw his head, over and over. They would not stop. He kept seeing and man that looked like him, only he had no Jagan, nor did he have the wards. So it must not have been him. Then he saw Kurama. Only in his Youko form. His silver hair was blowing behind him as he rushed over to the black clad man. All he could make out was, him falling, no real details. Finally Kurama walked over to a small child. It was Hiei, he looked helpless, and scared, he was scarred with blood trailing down his arm. Was the kid dying, or just hurt? He felt like that three year old version of him. He felt like a three year old. And helpless child.

" No! Get out of my head!!" Hiei yelled, he got to his feet and quickly collapsed to his knee. Slamming his fist into the low table, leaving a huge dent. " Get out! Get out!"

Kurama rushed in seeing his friend doubled over in pain or just plain frustration and fear. Kurama put his hand on his shoulder. " Hiei! Hiei! Listen to me! You are ok, I am here with you." Hiei seemed to calm down, his eyes had no life in them, Hiei fell into Kurama's arms blacked out.
