They slept, peacefully. There backs, pressed together.Mukuro was the frist, one to wake
up. She looked at the sleeping, Fire demon. On her left side, he smiled lightly. As she touched, his face." I never knew, that I would give up my freedom, for someone before." She said, quietly as she said, out of the bed.Hiei, was still asleep. She looked, at her shirt “I do believe, it is time to visit the fox."

She knew Kurama, was in Hiei’s old room. And she found that it was amusing, that Hiei was so afraid, that she would kill the fox. She understood the feelings, they shared at one time but. Was pretty confident, that Hiei would stay her. And also, he had his eye on some human girl, mostly to keep his mother happy. As she walked, down the hallway. Some of the guards, backed up giving her room. She had ruled by fear before, so she was use to this behavior. She knocked on the fox's door, as she smiled when a faint voice answered "who is it?"

"It's Mukuro," after those words. she could hear, some movement. As he unlocked, and open the door." Good morning," she said. As she looked, at the fox. He looked, like he had. Just gotten up out of bed. his hair a little tossled, and his shirt krinked, she though it was cute. “I do trust, that this room is conftable for you? If not, I can have you moved.To a more suitable room," Kurama smiled, as he looked at her.” Thank you, for the kind offer. But I don't want to be a burden." He said, as he stepped to the side."

She smiled, as she walked in to the room. Taking, a seat at the desk. “I was told, to come to you. By Hiei, He said when the cloth turns black, I’m to take it out. I'm not familiar with you healing tactics, and I wouldn't want to do anything wrong.” She smiled, as she looked at the fox. "You are, a very wise woman. " And you are, a very wise man. I, myself. have not had to deal with poison, and if it wasn't for Hiei’s stubness, I wouldn’t be here." Kurama, knew this was her way of saying thank you."

He nodded, as he reached to get his bag. He came back Mukuro, had pulled her arm out of the shirt. Reveling her sholder, chest and the top of her breast. She looked down, to the patch. Kurama, trying to keep as professional, as he could. Felt a bit uncomfortable. with the reviling of skin, And tried not to stair. "I'm pretty sure, that you've seen women before Kurama, you are a Youko." "And, you’re the former ruler of Demon world."

he said, back to her. He looked a shoulder ,and little reluctant to touch her skin. He took a breath. As he touched the smothing skin." the extra oil applyed really did help her skin" he thought to himself. reached over, and pulled off the cloth, checking out the wound. "It's not as bad as, I thought. Your lucky," He said, as he grabbed the stem, and pulled it out. She hissed,under her breath. "Damn," Then he threw away,cloth and leaf. "Do I, discuss you?" She asked, as she pulled up her sleave."I have never seen, something like this before Mukuro. Pardon, my lack of manners."

She trusted Kurama; she could tell by his eyes, that he wanted to hear the past of the Former Demon lord. She had been awake when the treatment was taking place. But she was drained from the poison, that she couldn't speech. She rember some of the men's conversation. One was about the Pseudocreature, And she heard that Kurama, knew about him. Yoko Kurama, was probably only a few hundred years younger, then she and he knew many stories about demons, like she did.

"I did her you talking about, My Pseudocreature Kurama. And I thank you, for giving Hiei, access to the seed. That was the best present, I have reserved,In all my days. Kurama,made him self comfortable,on the other side other side of the table. Out of old Demon habits, both of them keeping there hands, above the table. An old honor code between high demons.

"Chikou," she said as she looked at him. "He took away my freedom. I was born into his slave trade. My mother was just another demon with in that trade. She died at my birth. Or that's what I tell my self. From the age 0 my insides were surgical modified so he could have an easier time playing with me. And every year on my birthday he would rape me and give me a scar."


"The more I fought, the more he got off. Trapped beneath, those two assholes, that were his nostrils. I’d hear him whisper, how about I chop off chop off your head, and stick it down your throat" I’d say I wish you would. He would squealed like a laughing baby stopping only to say that's my daughter" (< authors note. I took this out of the mange. It is not quoted word from word; I changed the story a little bit. But is closes enough.>)

Kurama's eyes winded, as he looked at her. Chikou would do this to his own daughter was out raged. He now had no honor, and lost any pity that he felt ,when he saw him in the Pseudocreature missing limbs. And wished, he would have killed him. Long ago when he had the chance, the man had no honor.

Mukuro, placed her hand on his. As she sighed, she could feel his Ki energy, and the jester, was to silently thank him for his concern. "I was his favorite. My will to be free, was his favorite part. One day, when they were bringing in a new load of new slaves; I escaped from my prison, I ran in to the torture chambers. I looked as hard as I could, for anything that would keep his hands off of me. I had gotten lucky, and found acid, in large vile. I knew this was extreme, and I hoped I would work."

"The pain of that acid is unforgettable. As soon as it poured on my body I could feel it took my face frist, finally one of the guards noticed the scream was displaced and ran to the torture chamber to see me. The whole right side of my body was damaged. I do not rember much of my disowning. Except for Chikou screaming and yelling at the guards for letting me do this to my self. He said I was ugly and wanted nothing to do with me. So he orded one of his, men to kill me.As I said before, I do not rember much of that day.But what will always stay with me. The effects, of the acid still burned my flesh."

"I began to feel hatred. It burned deep in my soul, I could not brake the shackles. As hard as I tried, I had given up and jumped into the river. to take my life, but it was not successful. And I survived, in my rage. I killed anyone that I saw, I couldn't fill the emptiness. And one day, I found my self competing, against risen him self. On one of my raidsm I concord a land. And as a tokenm they gave me a Hirui stone. I knew these were valuem and I can not trust anyone. All of my menm were hungry for powerm and wealth. So I swallowed it."

"A calming effect, slowly was placed on me the stone it's self absorbed all my hatred. and calmed my soul," She said as took her hand off his, as she looked at the door. Hiei had entered the room, not even knocking. Looking a little surprised, Mukuro smiled at him. "Good morning Hiei, I'm taking it you slept well?"

"Hn" Was his response, as he sat down. in the last chair available, Enki messenger came while you were in here" He said coldly. "He wishes to see you, as soon as possible. If we leave now, we should get there by night fall." He said, as he looked to the fox.

"Hiei," Mukuro spoke coolly to him. As leaned back, in her chair.” We will discuses our plans, after a meal. Running around on an empty stomach, will not help any of us." Kurama nodded, as he backed her up "Yes Hiei, I’m quite starved my self." He said, as Mukuro stood. "I shall be back. I will go get one of the maids, to make us our meal. she said as she walked out of the room"

"What, was she telling you fox?" He didn't even hesatate. "I looked over the wound, and it is healing well. She is lucky, that you came to get me.Or she would have been dead by now." He said, as crossed his hands in his lap. Now that only Hiei, was present.” Don’t avoid, the question." He said, ”If you to have that way Hiei. fine, we were dusicing her past."

"When I was fixing her wounded, she asked if I feared her right side. I told her no. I’m interested in this Hiei, people's back grounds. Make them who they are today. Both of us, are old Demons. and find it interesting, to talk about stories.The old days." He smiled.

For once in Hiei's life, he felt as if he were a small child, walking in on his parents coverstions. he, shook his head. "Fox I need you to go to human world, and get hold of Koenma, and the others. We may need help, And if it has anything to do with the balanced of the demon world, they would be more then willing to help."

"Yes," the redhead answerd. He looked, at at the fire demon. “I planed on leavening to human world, after breakfast. "Hn" Hiei said, as he looked to see Mukuro, coming back.
"I have secudled, for us to be at Enki at sun set tonight. We will stay, as long as needed, figure out what is going on." She, sat back down "I guess, my supposed assassination. Is well known, around the area" she looked pleased, as she sat back

"Kurama, is going back to human world." Hiei commented, "He nodded, to the surprised woman. ”Yes I am going, to see to talk to Koenma. I want to know if he knows anything about this. And see, if I can not assist you in anyway possible." Mukuro knew, he was doing this, for the balance of demon world. It was easily angerd and could easily be over ruled.

They sat in Silence, for a few moments. All busy, with there own thoughts. When the door open. One of the female maids, brought in a lovely breakfast. Frist they were all served green tea, then large serving, of burley. (< I made that word up XD>) a bird, that was common in demon world.It was centered, in a warm broth.

They continued to eat in silence. Kurama, had found it funny. That Mukuro, had had 3 cups of tea, and some of Hiei’s' burley. When he wasn't looking, "This is the best Burley i've had!" Kruama said, to attempt to fill the silence. It was interesting, to watch someone that you use to hear stories about. And now seeing there everyday life.

The meal was complete, they took away the trays, Mukuro stood up, as she began to walk out the door. "We, must prepare to leave." She nodded, towards Hiei, who stood after her. "I wish you well, on your travles back to human world. Watch you back. and I hope to hear good news, when you return." She said, as he nodded "The same for you Mukuro, may you be safe. and find your attempted killer." She nodded, as she walked to her second chambers, Hiei close behind.

After packing up there things, one of the servant men, knocked on the door. My lady, your centipede Vehicle is ready for departure. "Are you ready?" She asked, as Hiei had only packed a nice outfit and a couple traing outfits, Mukuro, could not tell much more he, was a very privet person. She sighed, as they walked to the vehicle


It had been hours, now that they sat on the vehicle. She still, used the insect vehicle that was now mostly, used for patrol. But since the assassination, attempt at her. All of her people, were to stay at the fortress. and keep it safe, till her return. Kirin had been order, head of the fortress. He was injured the night before, but with so many healers. He was back in health, and ready for the job.

They all seemed delighted, when it was announced, that Mukuro would need them to guard the fort, while they were away. They all hated patrol, so much. She slight laughed, and pitted them. The sun felt grate on her face, it had been some time. Since she had left her fortress, Once she ranked high enough, it wasn't need. She had others fighting for her.

With Hiei, by her side, she felt safe. She and him had bonded, so much after these three days.was surprised, that he had done so much for her. She looked at him, as he gave the look. That said,what you are looking at. She smiled, as she looked away." Thank you Hiei.

Hiei responded, with his usual "Hn" witch was a flexible word. In his dictionary. He open his mouth to speech again. when he saw, two figures. standing in frot of the vehicles path, one was much taller, one was only a foot smaller. They were blurry for now, as they were ready for fight. When the vehicle drew closer, she let down her guard as she looked shocked.

"And what brings you here," she said, as she looked to the men. "Well" the man responded coolly. "I heard, of the attempts of assassination on you Mukuro, and just had to hear it with my own ears." Yomi said, as he smiled. Shura beside him.
