He followed the elderly woman down the hallway. It was about 11:30 at night it was past both of the bed times but figured it was the best time to revel his location to the boys and hopeful get this fixed. He saw Kuwabara and Yusuke sitting at the table both had a can of pop and chips in front of him. Obviously they had been there longer, than he thought.

"It's the fox from earlier today hey boy" Kuwabara held out his hand to the fox as the fox lifted his brow. "Umm something's wrong with this fox." Kuwabara said, as he pulled his hands away. Genkai took a seat and the fox sat on a cushion next to her. "He sure acts funny for a fox" Yusuke said as he looked at the fox "Though he is pretty" he added.

"Yeah, Yukina found him in the forest, and took him he's kind like her pet" Yusuke raised a brow at the carrot top. "Isn't it a bad idea to take wild animals as pets" he asked. "That's the problem" Genkai said coolly "He's not a wild animal" both of the boys looked towards the fox. "Then he's a pet fox?" Kuwabara asked "No you dimwit" Genkai growled "this is Kurama in is natural form.

"Kurama's a fox!!" Kuwabara yelled. As his mouth was quickly covered; by Genkai's hand. If looks could kill, the look on Kurama's face would have taken his life. "And you say that yukina is keeping him as a pet? Way to go Kurama" Yusuke joked. I'll kick your ass Urameshi" he said. As he formed a fist, at Yusuke. "There is never away, to keep you two idiots quite is there?" Genkai growled.

The two continued to bicker, worrying the fox that the ice princess, would wake up and wonder why the were having a get together with out her. He growled as he walked over to the two fighting boys and bites both of them on the fore arm. It didn't puncture the skin but was close. "Owe what was that for Kurama?" they called in unison. "He's telling you to shut up and listen!" Genkai said as she looked down on the boys. "They sat up rubbing there new wounds "I like human Kurama better" Kuwabara said as the fox reclaimed his place beside Genkai.

"When Yukina found him, he was injured severely and Yukina nursed him back to health. His Youki still seems low, there for he can not transform back. And the only way to communicate with him is though questions. But I am not a demon. I do not know how there Energy works. "He's a demon" Kuwabara pointed to Yusuke. "But he is new to his heritage," she continued. "I have contacted Koenma; he will be here with in a few days to help us get him back, to his human form." Genkai looked at the fox, he was just as alert.

"So why is he still staying in Yukina's room, if you know he is Kurama?" Kuwabara asked, in a jealous tone. "Well Kuwabara, We are aware of his condition; he is weak until the less people that know the better. And as you said before Yukina see him as a pet. And it would upset her if she found out." She continued to sip her tea. "Especially how close, she gotten to him" Genkai said to herself.

"So were going to continue to lie to Yukina, until fox boy gets his powers back?" Kuwabara said. as the fox glared at him, "I liked Kurama, when he was human" he glared at the fox "We will do everything as normal and tomorrow at sun rise you will go to Kurama's apartment and collect the items we have listed here" Genkai handed it the boys

"How did you get a list if he can't talk and he doesn't have thumbs" Yusuke attempted to make a joke.

"As I told you before, I asked and he answered. We have been doing this about an hour every night. Hopefully we can get him back soon. "So he'll leave my yukina alone," Kuwabara interrupted. Kurama hadn't enjoyed Kuwabara's rude comments. And knew that he was only speaking in jealous. And he wondered if their friendship could withstand such a challenge. After Genkai went though the list in front of him. "Alright boys we must get to bed. You know where the guest rooms are. Kurama had followed her and Kuwabara watched as Genkai allowed him into Yukina's room.

"Kuwabara's getting jealous" Yusuke said as he teased the young man. "Well, come on how honorable is it to be staying in a girl's room. He should at least, have to sleep in the living room. "Nah, You sleep with Eikichi every night don't you?" He asked as they began to walk to there room "It's the same thing for Yukina, but with fox boy instead. And Kurama doesn't want to hurt her feelings, so when he transforms back into his human form we'll tell her that the fox went back to the spirit world." He said as they began to open the doors to there rooms. "I just don't like the fact that we have to lie to her" Kuwabara said as he prepared him self for bed.

Genkai opened the door allowing the fox demon, back into her room he nodded a thank you, and walked back to his bed. He looked up to see the ice maiden sleeping peacefully, she once again had pulled the covers off her body. Kurama walked over, pulling them back over her. "Her heart is so pure; it's hard to believe that she has something to worry about. What could it be" He asked himself as he lay down and soon fell asleep.

A few hours had passed and it was before sunrise the fox was awakened by the bed violently moving and Yukina's cries of pain he jumped up amidentity. And landed on her bed. "He was expecting an intruder but it was only yukina dreaming. That once clam face was now over ruled by a face of pain and shock. Her body was sweating and tear gems pressed them self's against the wolfs paws.

The ice maiden was awoken with the jump on the bed. she almost let out a scream until she realized it was he beloved fox she sat up quickly pulling the tamed fox to her chest as she held him close he could tell her body was shaking " it felt so real," was all she managed to say as more gems the previous ones. Kurama found it difficult to comfort the woman in his fox form but tried at the best of his abilities. Placing his face in her neck as she held on to him she wiped away some of the gems as laid him beside her.

He lay beside the ice apparition he couldn't leave her in her time of need he licked her face light making her smile. "Thank you," she said as she closed her eyes; as she fell asleep. her face barred in fur, falling back asleep. Kurama wished, he had been in his human form. He imagined his body warped around her small body. He felt him getting exited. And then again, he wouldn't be able to control Yoko Kurama. He couldn't sleep that night. He stayed awake in Yukina's cold, but comforting embrace.

Yukina had woken up; she still held the silver fox in her arms. She smiled as she yawned, letting him out of her embrace. "Sorry," she uttered as the fox demon stirred. He rolled over and licked the ice apparition's face. "Good morning boy, thank you for staying with me last night. It's that awful dream again." she said, as she stretched.

Kurama had waited to hear the story, as she began to tell it when there was a nock on the door. "Yukina!" Kuwabara called out happily, as he waited for a reply. "Just a moment Kazuma, I'm not dressed. She called as she took her cloths and ran in to the bathroom getting dressed.

"Great," Kurama thought, that idiot is probably going to think that she really is naked. He sighed, as he curled up on Yukina's bed. He had made him self comfortable, there and waited for the girl to get out. His acute hearing, could hear the grumbles of Kuwabara. he was mumbling, that it's not right for Kurama to see such things. especially when she wasn't aware that it was him. He wondered how long, he could keep this secret from her. And wondered why Genkai, allowed him in on the secret.

He stood when she walked out of the bathroom she had taken a quick shower and changed rather quickly "When did you get here Kazuma?" She asked though the door as she cleaned up her room a bit picking up the gems and hiding them under her bed. "I'll have to help me berry them later" She kissed the top of the foxes head. As she walked out meeting Kuwabara, who looked down at the fox with a glare. "I came here this morning to visit you I have next couple days off so I'd thought I'd see "My" he said loudly "beautiful Yukina" he said in his normal voice. "You're so silly Kazuma."

"Do you want the usual?" She asked Kurama not leaving her side. "Yeah that sounds great" he said Yukina noticed something was different with Kazuma he looked distant and kept his eyes on the fox. "Could he be jealous of this creature, Hinta always did say that men were greedy maybe he's being greedy over me?" She thought as she smiled bright now seeing Yusuke sitting at the table. He was getting reacquainted with his spirit beast.

"Your staying here to, Yukina said as she tilted her head to the side. She had stopped walking and was in deep thought. "That means Kurama is still missing?" Her eyes began to weld up with tears. "How do you know he is missing" Yusuke and Genkai almost said in unison. "I called his mother a few days ago; I wanted to know if he wanted to help me with Genkai's garden. But she said he hadn't been home in days. I hope he's alright!" The fox began to nuzzle her hand.

She looked down to the fox, petting his head. "I'm sure he's fine" Genkai said. "He his very intelligent and had lived for hundreds of years." Yukina nodded. "I love hearing his stories" she walked forward, as Kurama sat beside Genkai. "So, Shorie goes to work at 10 correct" Yusuke looked towards the fox that nodded. "And these books are supposed to help you get back to your normal state." Kuwabara said, with a growl.

How badly Kurama wanted tell Kuwabara that he wasn't interested in Yukina, he just happened that he was injured and she healed him. But he wished, that was how he really felt. But his heart was telling him something else. The way she smiled and laughed. And need him in the night, when she was frightened. Not only made him feel special, but also need and she hand mention that he was attractive to her.

His thoughts were interrupted, when he heard the loud yell of Botan. This woman was beyond annoying, to his sensitive ears. He growled lowly, it just happened that Yukina was standing beside him, with his breakfast. "Its okay boy, she's my friend." she said, to him. He looked down, as he began to eat his breakfast. He couldn't Waite to eat like a human again.

"Yukina, Koenma has given me the day off of work. So I'm here to take you on a shopping spree!" Yukina's eyes widened as she looked at her. "Really!" She clasped her hands together. "Yes, Genkai you are invited as well" she looked to the old physic "That's not my thing Botan, but thank you for offering." She sipped her tea. "Well can Kazuma come?"

She looked over too the Carrot top, who had just finished his breakfast. "Cant to day babe. I've got chores around the temple, that Genkai asked me to do but. I'll take you shopping another time" He rubbed the back of his head. This lying thing, was getting harder to do. "Darn it who will carry our things. She opened her mouth as Yusuke growled "Not this time Botan!" darn it. She said again as she looked at yukina "We don't need boys anyway.

The girls continued to get ready, Yukina grabbed her purse; and Genkai gave her money to pick up some groceries. And extra money, to spend with Botan. She smiled at Kazuma, as she walked over to the fox; she lightly petted his head, and then kissed the smashed fur. This aggravated the carrot top, Botan who realized what was happening, grabbed Yukina's arm. "Come on the store closes at seven that will give us eleven hours to shop. She and Yukina made it out of the temple. "Have fun," Genkai said. as she watched the girls leave. She turned to the boys, and looked at them. "She annoying as hell, but is a good distraction.

The boys nodded, glad she was out of their hair. "Now Kurama can come along, he can show you the items that are needed. "The boys got ready, as Genkai walked back in to the room, throwing a leash and collar at the boys. "What the hell is this for?" Yusuke asked as he caught it. "Just incase you need it" she said with a smirk "Where did you get the leash and collar Genkai, you never had a dog."

Her smirk grew, "Who said it was for a dog?" Yusuke's eyes widened, as he dropped it on the ground. "Oh my god Genkai, that's distrusting." Kurama caught amidentity on, and moved back away from the collar. Though it Kuwabara, few moments to catch on. "That's nasty!" she rolled her eyes. "You guys can't take a joke can you? Just take it incase something dose happen alright?" fine but Kuwabara's carrying it" He called out as he and Kurama began to run down the stairs

"Those guys are such jerks!" Kuwabara said. as he picked up the leash and collar, and attempted to catch up with the fleeing men. "In the back ground, she could hear constants laugher. "Well I'm glad some one, thought it was funny." Genkai said. as she looked to see Koenma, in tears.
