Chapter Nine: The Hunt

Kurama was sitting on the steps of temple wondering where Hiei and his sister went. He knew his twin's feelings for the particular fire demon through her actions that afternoon, but he didn't know what Hiei's feelings were towards her. And he'd be damned if he let anyone hurt his sister, even his best friend.

    He also smelled that Kira's heat cycle was coming up. Hell even his own was coming up. 'This is not good. I should find my sister and take her with me to the deepest northern part of the mountains till our cycles are over.' After debating, it over in his head, Kurama slowly shifted into his youko form and went to search for his sister. She came running into him, her eyes widened as she saw his youko form, a towering seven feet tall, silver ears, mane and tail with the golden eyes she remembered so fondly from her childhood.

    "Kurama, I need your help. Hiei, he… he's initiated the koomrine mating ritiual. But I'm not ready for it." She gasped out. Kurama growled looking back the way Kira had just come, but grabbed his sister's hand.

    "Come on, I'll help you. First you need to change back to your youko form, it'll make you faster."

    "Hai." Kira said before she shifted back to her youko form. Black ears poked out from her tresses, the gold tint came back into her eyes as the black streaks lifted out of her hair. Her black tails wagged excitedly behind her and she shrank to her usual height of five feet six inches. Kurama urgently pulled on her arm and the twins ran off into the night towards the northern mountains.

    Kurama told her that they would wait out the heat cycles in a cave he found up there several years back and hopefully Hiei wouldn't find them up there till it was past their heat cycles were over. Kira sent some of her ki to scatter among the plants to throw off Hiei, the same went for Kurama. Just as the twins' heat cycle started they reached the cave. As Kira predicted, it was worse for her than the last time.

    Hiei had been tracking them for a little over a week. 'Hn, the youko twins are together.' He thought as he traced their ki. He couldn't get an exact fix since they were very good at scattering it to throw him off that was one of the reasons it took so long to find them. The path he was on now was leading him deeper into the mountains. He smirked when he thought of ravaging his soon to be mate.

    Kira lay balled up on a pallet of moss her brother made for her. The pain was unbelievable. Kurama sat against the wall staring at his sister; the pained whimpers tore his heart in two. 'Though I hate to admit it, my sister really needs a life mate.' Her temperature was enough to keep anyone from going to sleep. He regretted bringing her all the way up here, but he didn't know it was becoming this bad. A familiar ki brought him out of his reverie.

    "Kira, can you get up?" Kira nodded slowly. "Good because you need to run, Hiei is on his way here." With Kurama's help, Kira stood and slowly and painfully left the cave.

    She ran to another cave Kurama had told her about only to be tackled by someone. The two of them went tumbling into the snow and Kira ended up on the bottom, the snow soaking through her clothes and cooled her fever ridden body. Hiei looked down on his prey with a feral gleam in his eyes; fangs peeking out from his mouth as he smiled.

    "Caught you little one." He said as he bent down to kiss and to nuzzle her neck, the urge to mark her as his own only grew deeper. Kira knew she had no more chances, no more escape routes and that her heat seemed to disappear while Hiei nuzzled her like he wasso she didn't struggle. She turned her head to give Hiei better access to her neck as he kissed, licked and playfully bit it.

    Seeing as Kira wasn't giving him a struggle, Hiei decided to finally mark her. He kissed and sucked at the intended area, where the neck meets the shoulder, before he slowly sunk his fangs into her soft skin. Kira tensed in pain but relaxed as a warm feeling slowly made its way though her bloodstream. Hiei lapped at his mate's blood sealing the mark with his koomrine magic. The mark will permanently mark her, forever bind her to him.

    "You're mine now, little kitsune." Hiei whispered before he devoured Kira's lips with his own. Kira kissed back with as much passion her heart allowed. Hiei's hands traveled down the lithe body under him till they reached her waist. With out breaking the kiss, Hiei pulled Kira to him and flitted off to the cave Kira was heading to when he caught her.
