Chapter 6: Kurama's Worst Nightmare

***************************Makai******************************** *

"You okay Urameshi?" Kuwabara asked.

"Yeah. No . . .problem." Yusuke replied. They were close to their destination. The Mirror of Darkness was supposed to be a sacred and dangerous artifact.

"Let's rest here. If we leave early tomorrow, we should get there by the early evening." Kurama stated. "Yusuke, need more bandages?"

"No." Yusuke said with deep breaths again.

NEXT DAY

Just before they were about to leave, an old woman came up to them. "Excuse me, what are you doing here in thee forest?"

"Excuse me, but, what is an old lady like you doing in the forest? Actually, are old lady's even supposed to be in Makai?" Kuwabara asked with his stupid voice.

"It's my disguise to confuse other demons. Every demon has a disguise." and asked Kurama the same thing.

"We're looking for the Mirror of Darkness. Why do you ask ma'am?" Kurama said.

"The Mirror of Darkness! Why in the world are you looking for that!" she yelled.

"We can't tell you the exact details but we can tell you that it's an order."

"Let me tell you boys something. Here, sit down." She said politely and everybody sat down. "If you look into the Mirror of Darkness, it shows one bad thing that's going to happen to one loved one within 24 hours in the Ningen time. So I wouldn't even touch that thing to get one of my friends or family hurt."

"Oh. Well we're not going to look at it. We just need to give it to somebody." Kuwabara said.

"Shut . . . .up . . . .Kazuma. Why'd . .you . .have to . . .tell her?" Yusuke said while still sleeping.

"I'll just tell you this. Don't look at it." The old woman said. After she said that, she disappeared into the forest.

"Wow. She must be an old magician." Kuwabara said stupidly.

"C'mon! We have to leave so we can get back to Earth." Kurama yelled out.

EARLY EVENING

"Here it is. The Temple of Darkness." Kurama said with a monotone voice.

"Wow. Sure is big. That things bigger that me!" Kuwabara said.

"Shut . . .the hell. .up!" Yusuke screamed.

"Hey! Why don't you--!" Kuwabara yelled. But before he could finish his sentence, Kurama had his turn to talk.

"Will both of you please shut up! Now let's keep going!"

"Sure. Let the fox take everything." Kuwabara said.

When they got inside the temple, there was gold everywhere. But when they looked in front of them, there was a mirror. A clear silver one. Was that the Mirror of Darkness? You bet it was. "Get . .it." Yusuke whispered.

So Kuwabara grabbed the mirror and all of them and ran out, but of course, Yusuke took a long time because of his stab wounds.

"C'mon Urameshi!" Kuwabara yelled. Yusuke ran as fast as he could. "Too bad we can't take the gold. Why'd we have to get this stupid mirror instead of the gold!"

"My . .definition of . .stupid . .would be . .you, . .Kuwabara." Yusuke stated.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kazuma screamed. When he was about to punch Yusuke, Kurama took his turn to talk and stopped the fight.

"But Yusuke's right Kuwabara, everybody knows that you're labeled as the stupid one." Kurama said.

"You sound just like Hiei! He's the only one who calls me stupid besides my sister!!! Now you're saying it!" he screamed.

Suddenly, everyone heard a sound coming from the bushes. "Hide!" Kurama whispered. "Yusuke, go there!" Kurama said and pointed to a nearby tree.

Yusuke went to the tree Kurama had pointed to and hid there. Kurama and Kuwabara got their rose and spirit sword and was ready to fight whatever it was. A demon had jumped out of the bushes, an ogre like George, Koenma's assistant. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!" the ogre screamed.

"What the--?" Kuwabara asked.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT! THAT BELONGS IN THE TEMPLE! PUT IT BACK!"

"Chill, chill, I got a better idea. Why don't you go back where you came from? That sounds much better." Kuwabara stupidly said again.

And behind the tree, Yusuke whispered to himself, "My god. Why did I . .have to . .meet him?"

A battle began. Kurama got his rose and was ready to use Rose Whip Lash. And Kuwabara on the other hand, put down his spirit sword and started asking stupid questions to get the ogre away.

"Why is your friend doing this?" the ogre asked.

"Ah, an enemy who finally understands what we have. Thank you lord!" Kurama said.

"I am nice, I just wanna know what you're doing with that. Is that so hard to answer?" he replied.

"Wow! He talks too!" Kuwabara said.

`My god! I know he's stupid, but not this stupid! That guy needs help, BADLY!!!' Yusuke thought to himself.

`We're bringing it to someone sir." Kurama replied to the gentle ogre.

"I think you should take it back, it holds many dangerous things in it. By the way, I'm Daisuke."

"I'm Kurama, this is Kuwabara, and over there's Yusuke."

"Why don't we talk over there, I don't like sitting in this spot at this time." Daisuke said. So they sat on top of some knocked down trees and talked for about an hour.

"I have a son named George who's in the Spirit World working for the Prince." He said while talking.

"GEORGE!! The one who looks like you! We know him!" Kuwabara yelled.

"Really, he still can't think for himself, can't he?"

"Sometimes." Yusuke said.

"He takes it from my side of the family." Daisuke replied back.

After they were finished talking, Kurama accidentally knocked over the bag, which was holding the Mirror of Darkness and looked at it. "Ah, ah, oh no." Kurama whispered.

"Ku . .rama?" Yusuke asked.

He was looking at a vision that would haunt him forever. His own mother, being mugged and stabbed in a deserted alleyway. Blood was everywhere. There was no one there to save her since it was an alley that no one could hear her screams of help. "My god!"

"Kurama, what's wrong?" Kuwabara asked.

"We have to get back to Earth! NOW!!!" Kurama yelled. He put everything away and got ready to leave.

"But Kurama, it'll take days to get back to Earth!"

"Here, I'll give you this for your journey." Daisuke said. Then he held out some food for them to take with them.

"Thank . .you." Yusuke said.

********************Ningenkai (20 Hours Later)*******************

"Hey Hiei! Catch this!" Keiko screamed. Hiei and Keiko were playing a game of catch one Saturday afternoon. "I have a day off from work on Monday. So we can hang sometime again."

"Sure!" Hiei replied back.

Suddenly, Hiei stopped talking and had a look that made Keiko wonder if something was happening. "Hiei? Is anything wrong?"

He shivered and said, "Nope. It's nothing, I just had a little dust in my eye."

"Okay then. Let's go the Genkai's!" Keiko recommended.

"Sure." Hiei put his hand on top of his head and started sweating. But when they went through a dark alleyway, they heard something moaning.

"Who's that?" Keiko asked.

When they went closer to the moaning object, the more gruesome it became. There was blood everywhere. "Look."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Keiko screamed.

It was Kurama's mom. Hiei grabbed his mom and asked Keiko to meet him at Genkai's temple.

LATER

"She's dead." Genkai said. "By the time you two came, she was nearly gone. She's going to the Spirit World now."

"How are we going to tell this to Kurama?" Keiko asked.

"We're not." Hiei replied. "He'll find out eventually. By the way, how's Yukina?"

"Same range as she was earlier. Still weak." Genkai stated.
