 Kurama was summoned again by Yomi.  The kitsune sighed.  Although, he and Yomi had cleared up differences in the past, he still felt a little uneasy with the makai lord.  Yomi had become wiser and more powerful and he was getting hard to read.  Why he had summoned him, Kurama couldn't know.  He was sure there was no trouble in the makai anymore.  Maybe he wants to socialize?  Kurama asked himself and laughed aloud, then sobered.  Perhaps he should bring along Yusuke?

 "Moshi moshi?"

 "Ano Yusuke.  It is I, Kurama."

 "My, you sound so serious.  What's wrong?"  Yusuke asked.

 "Nothing really.  I just had one mighty favor to ask."

 "Fire away." Yusuke answered enthusiastically.

 "Can you come with me to the makai, to Yomi's?"

 "NANI?!"

 ***************

 The fire demon was idly sitting near Mukuro's throne, thoughts far away.  Mukuro blinked at the fire demon.

 "Problems again?" asked the makai lord.

 Hiei just glared at her.  Mukuro stared back at him, quizzically.

 "What is it" Mukuro asked her lover.

 "Nothing.  I-I'm just thinking that's all," the fire demon answered absently.

 Mukuro gazed down at him some more and slowly came nearer to softly embrace the little youkai.

 "I sensed that you're becoming bored, Hiei.  Maybe you should go patrol the borders and find some excitement," Mukuro suggested.

 "Hn.  Maybe you're right. This is just boredom," the fire demon assented as he slowly got up.

 Mukuro kissed Hiei softly on the lips.  One bionic hand caressing the youkai's soft cheek.

 "I'll be waiting for you here." The makai lord smiled and watched the koorime disappear with a blink of an eye.

 That was the last time she saw Hiei in many days to come.

"Gods Kurama.  I'm sure glad you brought me along."  Yusuke said with a thoughtful frown on his face.

"Thanks for coming,' the redhead said softly.

"Never mind that.  I couldn't imagine...what was Yomi thinking?" Yusuke mumbled.

"Sex?" the redhead answered, rolling green eyes.

"Nani!" Yusuke flustered and gazed stupefied at the redhead.  "B-But with whom?"

"Who else?!"  Kurama almost shouted in frustration.

"Youuu?" Yusuke fell flat on his face.

"My God!!" Yusuke quivered from head to toe whether from laughter or distaste, Kurama couldn't decipher.

"My God! Hasn't he seen the differences in you, I mean. Man you're only 18 and human."

"Think he hasn't figure that out yet?" Kurama asked sarcastically.  "And you're right, he'll squash me flat."

"Come on, Kurama, seriously.  This is trouble." Yusuke grabbed his friend on the collar.

"Promise me not to come near Yomi without me or Kuwabara, understand?"

Kurama blinked emerald eyes at the serious reikai tantei leader.

"What's with you Yusuke?" Kurama asked confusedly.

"Damn.  I saw him looking at you, I mean really looking at you.  He had that dangerous glint in his eyes, Kurama.  I'm telling you please be careful." Yusuke repeated softly.  Even though he knew Kurama could take care of himself fine, Yomi was another matter.  He had fought with the makai lord and was beaten.  Yomi was powerful and so was his passion.  The naked desire he saw in Yomi's eyes were a little crazy, obsessed with the gorgeous redheaded kitsune. 

Kurama sighed and nodded as Yusuke let go of him.  He gasped in shock with Yusuke suddenly pushed him on the makai grass and straddled his hips. claiming his lips in a brutal, possessive kiss.

"Y-Yusuke, what...."  Yu-Yusuke let go of me."  Kurama pushed the brown-haired boy's weight off him, but Yusuke persisted.   Mouth plundering the kitsune's as his other hand began roaming the fox's lower body.  Kurams's eyes glittered gold.  The youko sent a call to his beloved plants, instantly branches of trees swooped down to grab Yusuke off Kurama.  Kurama stood up shakily,  The sensuous mouth quivering a little.

"Let me down!"  Yusuke hollered as Kurama gazed up at him.  Yusuke did not wait for the youko to comply.  Flexing his muscles, the tree branches broke as Yusuke jumped down the ground, facing the redhead.

"I-Im sorry, Kurama."  Yusuke panted, stepping near the redhead who took a step an involuntary step back.

"Why did you do that?"  Kurama rasped.  Emerald eyes gliinting coldly. 

"I-I was just testing your reflexes.  And I just proved my point." Yusuke said.

"And what is that?"   Kurama asked coldly.  If Yusuke thought that was funny...

"You need to stay away from Yomi.  He has the same strength as mine or probably stronger than I am.  I took you by surprise there, but I think I've already done a little damage...." Yusuke trailed off as the redhead shuddered.

"You proved your point.  So stop this already."  Kurama said, elegant hands forming fists.

"Ku-kurama, I'm really sorry.  I-I didn't mean for it to get carried away. I was only going to tackle you, b-but then...." Yusuke explained.

"Stop!  I don't need to hear that?"  The redhead said sadly.  Was this going to be his fate forever?  Attracting everyone and anyone for his looks?  They always fall for it.  Damn.  That's what it probably was with Hiei too.  Physical attraction.  Kurama's heart hardened.  Never again will he fall prey to those types of affections.  The youko turned his back and walked slowly away from Yusuke.

"Kurama, wait!"  Yusuke called.

"No.  I need to be alone."  Kurama whispered and ran like the wind without any thought of direction to the makai forest.
