Chapter 15
Welcome Back
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The world went black for Hiei as he collapsed into Kurama’s chest. The shocked boys sat there for a few minutes. Yusuke slowly reached his hand out to the ground, beside the two unconscious demons. He brought his hand back up and opened it still not believing.
“What are those Urameshi?” Kuwabara asked pulling Hiei off of Kurama. Yusuke looked at his hand before looking down between the two demons and then looking back to Kuwabara with shock evident of his face.
“I believe they are Hiruseki Stones.”
“What? Like what Yukina does?” Kuwabara asked stunned.
“Yes.” Yusuke nodded.
“But why are they black? And where did they come form?”
“They are black because they came from Hiei.”
“NO!!!” Kuwabara said looking down to the smaller demon. “Hiei would never cry about anything or anyone.”
“I know that.” Yusuke said picking up one of the gems and bringing it closer to his face. “What blows my mind is that he did.”
“Wait! If he can cry tear gems wouldn’t that make him from the same race as Yukina?”
“Yes Kuwabara now put the brain to work and put it all together.”
“What are you talking…………..” Kuwabara started but stopped suddenly when it all hit him. “Hiei is Yukina’s long lost brother!!”
“Yep.” Yusuke answered putting the stones into his pants pocket. “We need to get these two to Kurama’s apartment since it is the closest and then get Yukina over there to heal them.”
“Then let’s move.” Kuwabara replied.
“You carry Kurama and I will carry Hiei.”
“Okay.” Kuwabara said before putting his arms under Kurama and standing up. Yusuke picked Hiei up and they hurried to the apartment.
By the time they got there Koenma was stepping out of a portal with Yukina and Botan. The ice maiden healed the two demons completely but they still slept. Their energy was just to low. Koenma and Botan helped the two ningens clean the two demons up as best they could, keeping their marks hidden from the two boys.

Three days slowly passed with everyone taking turns watching over Kurama and Hiei. They still had not woken up or even moved for that matter. It was Yusuke’s turn to watch over them which he was happy to do. He didn’t want to go to school anyway. He was sitting in the living room watching TV when he heard a slight noise. He looked behind him to see Hiei still quiet and asleep on the couch. Yusuke heard the noise again but louder this time. He looked towards the bedroom before jumping up and running into it. He found Kurama drenched in sweat, tangled in the covers and trashing his head from side to side with the occasional whimper.
“Kurama.” Yusuke said reaching out and shaking the fox slightly. With no response he tried again. “Kurama wake up!”
Kurama didn’t hear him though, he was reliving the fight or so he thought.
The fox had tried everything but couldn’t get to Hiei in time. Yomi pierced the fire demon through his heart with his sword before bringing it down across his neck, severing his head. Kurama screamed in agony as he watched but he still couldn’t move to help his mate. Yomi laughed sadistically, kicking the headless body over to Kurama.
The fox couldn’t help but look down. Blood drained from the body where the head should have been. Kurama reached out with visibly shaking to turn what was left of his lover over. He gathered the lifeless body into his arms, crying uncontrollably, wishing for his own demise.
Kurama noticed the body pressed to his was still very strong and muscular but it also had an almost roundness to it, that could not be explained. The fox didn’t have time to contemplate the meaning of this with his sorrow filled mind before he saw Yomi rushing at him. He held tightly to his mate’s body, dropping his head and waiting for his own life to be taken. He had nothing to live or fight for anymore.
“Kurama.”
The fox heard his name and looked up. He saw the demon charging him with a blood covered sword. The scene suddenly faded into black nothingness. Kurama looked down to find his arms empty.
“Kurama.”
It was that voice again. The fox looked around, it sounded familiar but distant, but he couldn’t place it. Kurama got up and ran in the direction he thought he heard the voice coming from, with darkness surrounding him.
Kurama’s eyes fluttered so Yusuke tried again.
“Kurama.”
The fox slowly opened his eyes, trying to focus them. He finally was able too and saw the boy staring down at him.
“Yusuke?” Kurama managed with a cracked voice.
“Hey Kurama.” Yusuke smiled. “Welcome back.”
“Where are we?” Kurama asked not recognizing his surroundings.
“In your apartment.”
“I figured none of us would survive that fight.”
“It looked pretty bleak for awhile until Hiei……”
“HIEI!!! WHERE IS HE?!!!” Kurama demanded trying to get up.
“Calm down.” Yusuke said trying to stop him. “Hiei is in the living room on the couch.”
“Why isn’t he in here? This bed is big enough.”
“We didn’t think about that.”
“Go get him!!”
“I don’t think….” Yusuke started shaking his head.
“Bring him in here now!” Kurama ordered.
“But!”
“NOW!!”
“Okay! Okay!” Yusuke agreed holding his hands in front of him defensively. He turned and walked out of the room. He returned a few seconds later carrying Hiei. “Where do you want me to put him?”
“Over here on the other side of the bed.” Kurama answered staring at his unconscious lover. Yusuke did what was asked of him pulling the covers up over the smaller demon. He walked back around to Kurama’s side grabbing the desk chair as he went by. He spun it around and straddled it before sitting down, leaning heavily on the back support.
“How’s your energy level?”
“It’s still very low but high enough for me to be awake.” Kurama answered with a smile. He was happy to know his mate was okay too. “It will take a few days for it to get back to it’s normal level.”
“Yukina came and healed both of you.” Yusuke commented.
“I was wondering where the hole was in my stomach.”
“Can I ask you something Kurama?”
“Of course Yusuke. What is it?”
“What’s with you and Hiei?”
“What do you mean?” Kurama asked looking to his mate before looking back to the boy.
“Well let me explain by telling you what happened in the fight after you passed out.” Yusuke answered. The more he thought about it the more he thought there was something going on between the two demons. “Well when you fell, Hiei appeared to be in a state of shock. He crawled over to you and touched your cheek. He then stood, brought forth his flame sword and then we all attacked. After a bit of fighting Yomi knocked me down and Hiei landed beside me. Kuwabara continued to fight by himself. Hiei came up with a plan. I summoned my spirit gun and him, his black dragon.”
“What? He used the dragon again!” Kurama interrupted glancing to the fire demon.
“Yes and I admit I don’t know how. His energy was very low. Anyway we combined out attacks. It caught Yomi off guard and destroyed him. There was nothing left, not even a pile of ashes.”
“Well I am relived to hear that.”
“Yeah me too. But what happened next, I’m still shocked over.” Yusuke stated.
“What was that?”
“You had used your life energy to save Hiei.”
“I figured as much.” Kurama nodded. “I had nothing left but I still moved and moved fast.”
“Right. So Kuwabara and me were trying to figure out how to save you. We were going to give you some of our energy.”
“It will not work.”
“Yeah that’s what Hiei said.” Yusuke answered. “You could only be saved by demon energy. I got angry when I heard this. I just knew Hiei wouldn’t do anything to help. He wouldn’t give up his energy or quite possibly his life for another. What happened next still bothers me three days later.” Yusuke reached into his pants pocket. He had carried the gems with him the whole time. He was going to give them to Hiei but he figured since he had cried for Kurama it would be okay to give them to him.
“So what happened?” Kurama asked inquisitively.
“He….He…”
“I gave you my energy.” Came the hoarse voice from the other side of the bed. Kurama snapped his head around to see Hiei staring at him.
“You did?” Kurama asked with only a small smile displaying the rush of emotions he felt, hearing the fire demon’s admission. Hiei nodded his head slightly reaching out under the cover. He found the fox’s hand and laced his finger’s through his, squeezing slightly. The redhead squeezed back.
“Here Hiei I found these for you. I am sorry for what I said. I was very wrong.” Yusuke said holding his hand out across the fox to the fire demon.
“Hn.“ Hiei said bringing his hand from under the cover and taking what was offered to him. He then brought his hand close to his body. He did not have to look into it to know what it held. The fire demon had suspected as much but had dismissed it completely as being ridiculous. He was glad to find out it wasn’t. Hiei was thankful the detective had enough sense to bring the tear gems along. Kurama was a bit confused by them being so mysterious. He glanced to Hiei finding the fire demon staring at him. He knew his mate wanted to talk without Yusuke around. Kurama pushed himself up until he was sitting leaning against the headboard. He found out he was still very weak with that small movement.
“Yusuke do you think you may be able to cook us all something to eat and some tea? We can eat together.”
“Yeah sure.” Yusuke said getting up from the chair and moving it back to the desk. “I am a bit hungry. Do you want anything in particular?”
“I believe there is some chicken soup in there.”
“Chicken huh?” Yusuke laughed.
“What can I say. I’m a fox to the end.” Kurama grinned, feeling Hiei poke him under the covers. “Could you make some grilled cheese sandwiches too? There should also be some leftover cinnamon rolls. Could you heat them up and put lots of butter on them.”
“Well you see we all kind of found the cinnamon rolls already.” Yusuke answered embarrassed.
“That’s okay then.”
“You know those were the best rolls I have ever ate. Where did you get them?”
“I made them.” Kurama smiled. “My mother taught me.”
“You made them!!!” Yusuke asked shocked.
“Yes!”
“They were real good. They melted in your mouth.”
“Thanks.” Kurama said accepting the complement. “So are you going to go cook us something?”
“Oh yeah! I forgot!” Yusuke replied going towards the door.
