It�s late, and I�m tired, so all I�ll say is Merry Christmas or happy whatever else you might celebrate, and thank you all so much for the great reviews.

CHAPTER 4

With Sakura�s evil laugh ringing in his ears, Kurama breathed the name of his most feared enemy. �Karasu.�
Sakura visibly bristled. �Don�t you ever say that name again! I will not allow a filthy traitor like you to utter the name of my beloved Karasu! I considered just killing you for murdering him, but I know he would enjoy it more if I made you suffer first.�
Impatiently, Sakura shoved Kurama towards the door. �Enough reminiscing, I�m anxious to see the look of contempt your ex-lover will give you when he smells me on you and realizes that he�s lost, and that I�m your lover now.�
Wanting to know his enemy, the cunning fox subtly questioned Sakura as they headed for the club. �I don�t recall poison being part of your bother�s arsenal.�
Sakura laughed. �No, my poisons may be deadly but they�re no match for Karasu�s bombs. Big Brother preferred a more gruesome form of torture. He loved to watch his victims bleed. Especially those he loved.�
Looking around, Kurama made sure they were alone on the street before taunting Sakura. �I don�t see any signs of torture on you Sakura. It seems your brother didn�t love you as much as you loved him.�
As expected, Sakura exploded. �You lying bastard! Karasu loved me above all others! It was me he who he perfected most of his techniques on! It was also me he came to when one of his victims couldn�t satisfy his desires! The night before your match at the dark tournament, it was me in his bed when he could have had you! It was my blood he tasted as he pleasured himself on me! It�s me he loved, not you or any of the other worthless beings that tried to take him from me!�
As if suddenly realizing the spectacle he was making of himself, Sakura calmed down and brushed several unseen wrinkles from his clothes. �Don�t think you can out wit me you stupid fox. I learned from the master.�
With the club only a block away now, Kurama decided to remain silent. As they entered the flashy club, Sakura pulled Kurama close to his side, laughing when Kurama tried to resist. �Now, now pet. Is that any way to treat your lover? I expect you to be affectionate and obedient or your mother will be the one to suffer.�
Kurama submitted just as he saw Yusuke waving at them. Plastering on a fake smile, Kurama didn�t dare meet Hiei�s eyes for fear of discovery. Sitting on the only empty stool, Sakura pulled Kurama between his legs and up against his chest. �Sorry we�re late guys, but my pretty little fox here wanted to have a little party before the party, if you know what I mean.�
Yusuke and Kuwabara laughed knowingly. Kurama�s sensitive fox ears didn�t miss Hiei�s growl before the fire demon tossed back his drink. Knowing he�d regret it, Kurama hazarded a glance at Hiei. His heart sank at the look of utter contempt in Hiei�s eyes. Kurama was forced to look away when Sakura�s fingers turned his face to look at him. Kurama briefly saw the smug �I told you so� look before he was thoroughly kissed.
When Sakura�s lips released him, Kurama had to fight the urge to wipe his mouth. Still holding Kurama close, Sakura stood up. �The next round�s on me. What�s everybody having?�
Before leaving the table, Sakura smacked Kurama on the ass and growled in his ear. �Be good.�
To the others it might have looked like a love pat, but Kurama knew it was a warning. Taking a seat on the vacated stool, Kurama took a chance and looked at Hiei. �I hear you went to see my mother.�
Hiei smirked. �She told you, did she?�
Locking his gaze with Hiei, Kurama answered. �No, she told Sakura when he had tea at her house yesterday.�
Ruby eyes narrowed at the information and Hiei grunted. �Hn.�
Yukina reached out to take Hiei�s hand. �Oh Hiei, that was so nice of you to visit Shiori. I�m sure she was glad to see you.�
Momentarily forgetting Sakura, Kurama looked between Hiei and Yukina. �Yes, my mother was always very fond of Hiei. Too bad he couldn�t be bothered with her when we were together.�
Hiei snapped at him. �Damn it Kurama, she didn�t even know we were together.�
Green eyes met red accusingly. �That�s because you wouldn�t let me tell anyone. These guys only knew because they figured it out on their own. Were you that ashamed of being with me Hiei, that even our friends and family couldn�t know?�
Hiei�s eyes widened at the hurt accusation, but he was prevented from responding when Sakura returned with a tray of drinks. Grateful for the interruption, Yusuke jumped up to help Sakura pass out the drinks. �Thanks man, this is great.�
Upset by his argument with Hiei, Kurama didn�t pay much attention until Sakura held a drink in front of him. �Here you are Lover, I had it mixed special just for you.�
Kurama stiffened, quickly looking around the table to see his friends already drinking. All but Hiei that is. Ruby eyes watched intently as Kurama set his drink aside as he addressed Sakura. �Thank you, but I�m not thirsty right now.�
Pulling Kurama from the stool, Sakura took him by the arm. �Then let�s dance and see if we can�t make you thirsty.�
Allowing himself to be led away, Kurama reached back and tipped over his drink. Luckily, Sakura didn�t see this. Hiei however reacted quickly, snatching the partially empty drinks from Yukina and Keiko as the guys used napkins to clean up the mess. �Yusuke, don�t question me, just go get new drinks! Kuwabara, get rid of these!�
Without a word, both men rushed to do his bidding. While they were gone, Hiei questioned both girls to see if they were alright. Kuwabara returned first and listened as the girls told Hiei they were fine. When Yusuke returned with the drinks and Hiei asked them the same questions, Kuwabara answered. �Urameshi and I were both finishing our old beers. We hadn�t picked up the new ones yet. What the hell�s going on Hiei?�
Checking first that Kurama was keeping Sakura distracted, Hiei confided in them. �Something�s not right. You�d have seen it if you were watching Kurama. He also wouldn�t take his drink, then he knocked it over without Sakura knowing. I don�t trust Sakura and it�s not just because I�m jealous. I think he�s responsible for that swamp wasp too.�
Hearing the music end, Yusuke glanced over his shoulder. �So what do we do?�
Watching Kurama and Sakura�s approach, Hiei whispered. �We wait and see what Kurama wants us to do.�
Sakura took his seat on the stool and once again pulled Kurama close. Reaching out, Sakura handed Kurama his drink. Knowing what had happened to his first drink, Kurama glanced at Hiei. The fire demon held his drink up in a silent toast before taking a sip of his own drink. With a sigh, Kurama sipped his drink. �I know we invited you out tonight, but I hope you won�t mind if Sakura and I make it an early one. My mother isn�t feeling well. She has a bad headache and I want to go see if I can give her something to make it better.�
Shortly after that, Kurama and Sakura said goodbye. The others all said they wanted to stay and party a while. Outside the club, Kurama pulled away from Sakura. Green eyes flashed golden as Kurama turned on him. �Get away from me you filthy vermin! You may have the upper hand now, but understand this! I will see you dead for threatening the people I love!�
As Kurama turned and ran in the direction of his mother�s house, he could hear Sakura�s laughter ring into the night.

Inside the club everyone watched as Hiei used a hand to shield the purple glow of the jagon under it�s ward. Only a few minutes passed before he lowered his hand and looked around at his friends. �Kurama�s on the way to his mom�s. Sakura�s not following him.�
Worried, Kuwabara kept an arm around Yukina as he questioned Hiei. �Are you sure about this Hiei? Kurama still seemed awfully chummy with him tonight and Sakura implied they�d� well, you know.�
Yusuke nodded. �Kurama definitely bore Sakura�s scent tonight.�
When Hiei�s temperature rose, Yukina took his hand to calm him as she spoke. �Yes, but Sakura didn�t bare Kurama�s scent, nor did their aura�s indicate they�d been lovers. At the most, Kurama� serviced Sakura with his hand or mouth.�
Almost shacking with anger, Hiei growled. �Kurama doesn�t use his hand, it�s too messy. And he enjoys giving blow jobs too much to� pull away at the end. Sakura�s scent was coming from his chest.�
Yusuke frowned. �Then Sakura probably forced himself on Kurama. Damn it Hiei, let�s just go kill that bastard and be done with it! He�s a demon so we won�t go to Reikai prison for it.�
Hiei shook his head. �No, there�s more going on Detective. Shiori had tea with Sakura yesterday, now she�s sick and Kurama�s worried. Add that to what happened with the drinks earlier and I think Shiori might have been poisoned. Until Kurama tells us otherwise, we wait.�

As Kurama made his way to his mother�s house, he kept checking to see if Sakura was following. Once there, he took out his keys and let himself in. Going first to the kitchen, Kurama put water in a small pot and put in on the stove to boil. Then he withdrew a seed from his hair and made it grow. Braking off a thick piece of the root he placed it in the pot to simmer.
Taking out the vile, Kurama examined it thoroughly. Opening it, he carefully smelled it before dipping his pinky in the clear liquid to taste it. Satisfied, he recapped the vile and set it on the counter.

Going upstairs, Kurama went first to his old room. Though he knew it was probably just wishful thinking, Kurama dared to unlock the window in hopes that Hiei would come. Going next to his mother�s room, Kurama knocked softly before letting himself in. He knew she would be alone since his stepfather would be away until Sunday.
Moving to the bed, Kurama gently sat beside her. Reaching out, he softly brushed the hair from her face. Brown eyes fluttered open and smiled tiredly at him. �Shuuichi, you came.�
After leaning down to kiss her cheek, Kurama smiled. �Of course I did Mother. Now, how are you feeling?�
Shiori sighed. �Tired and rundown, but worst of all is this awful headache. I�ve taken several things for it but none of them are helping. Do you think I should go to the hospital?�
Patting her hand, Kurama shook his head. �Not yet. I�m fixing you something that should help. If you�re not better in a day or two then we�ll go to the hospital. I�ll be back in a few minutes.�
Back in the kitchen, Kurama saw that the water with the root was simmering nicely. Going to the cupboard, he selected Shiori�s favorite tea. Using the root water that would help her sleep, Kurama brewed the tea then poured some into a cup. Carefully, Kurama added most of the contents of the vile, leaving a small amount for him to examine more thoroughly later.
Taking the tea upstairs, Kurama helped Shiori sit up so she could drink it. Cradling the cup, Shiori looked up at him. �It tastes a little different. What�s in it?�
Kurama smiled. �Just some medicine that should help your headache and a little something to help you sleep.�
Sure enough, half an hour later Shiori�s headache began to subside. A little while after that, she fell into a restful sleep. Wanting to make sure the contents of the vile would have no adverse effects, Kurama stayed, watching her sleep for almost two hours before he finally felt comfortable enough to leave her.
Going back to his old room, Kurama glanced wishfully at the closed window. Either Hiei didn�t get the message when Kurama said he would be at his mother�s or Sakura was too close and Hiei didn�t want to risk being seen. Going to the closet, Kurama took out a clean shirt. Luckily, he had left a few of his things here when he�d moved out. Going to the bathroom, he was anxious to shower and get Sakura�s stench off of him.

After leaving the club, Hiei flitted to the park near Shiori�s house. Opening the jagon, he wasn�t surprised to find Sakura attempting to hide across the street as he watched the house. Settling onto a branch, Hiei sat back and waited. A few hours later, when it was obvious that Kurama wasn�t going to leave, Sakura finally left. After making sure the demon wouldn�t return, Hiei flitted to the house and up the tree outside Kurama�s old room. Just as he�d hoped, the window was unlocked, which meant that Kurama was expecting him.
Hopping into the room, Hiei was just about to go looking for Kurama when the bathroom door opened. Wearing just his pants, and still damp from the shower, Kurama froze in the doorway. How long the two stood there staring at each other neither knew. Nor did they know who moved first but suddenly they were in each other�s arms.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Kurama clung to Hiei. �I�m sorry, Hiei. I�ve always trusted your instincts, how could I have been so stupid not to trust them now?�
Holding Kurama tight, Hiei tried to calm his upset fox. �Don�t think about that right now Kurama. Let�s just figure out how to beat this guy. Tell me what you know about him.�
Hiei was surprised to feel Kurama shudder. �Hiei, Sakura is Karasu�s brother, and he wants revenge against me for killing him. It worse than that though, he idolized Karasu. Karasu tortured him by perfecting his bomb techniques on him, and Sakura�s proud of it. Then, when Karasu used him for sex, Sakura thought it was love. It�s really pathetic.�
Hearing the name of the man that had almost killed his fox, Hiei stiffened. �Does he use bombs like that other psycho?�
Kurama shook his head. �No, Sakura uses poison. Hiei, he poisoned my mother. She�s alright for now. He gave me what he called a partial antidote but says without the real thing she�ll die in ten days. How are everyone else though? I was so worried when he brought back those drinks, but he told me if I said anything, my mother would suffer. I tried to tell you��
Rubbing Kurama�s back, Hiei interrupted him. �It�s alright Kurama, I understood what you were trying to say and didn�t drink any. Yusuke and Kuwabara were still polishing off their first beers, so they didn�t touch them either. Yukina and Keiko had a few sips, but the moment you tipped over your glass I took theirs away. All the drinks were replaced, and so far the girls seem fine.�
Relieved for the moment, Kurama sighed. �Thank the gods. Keep an eye on them though, Hiei. If they were poisoned, we don�t how long it takes for the poison to take effect.�
Nodding, Hiei released Kurama to take his hand and lead him towards the bed. �Don�t worry, Yusuke and Kuwabara are watching them closely. Now, let�s lie down and get comfortable while we try to figure out how to save Shiori and defeat this guy.�
Hiei turned questioningly when Kurama pulled his hand away. �Hiei, we can�t do this. I�m more grateful than I can tell you that you�re here for me right now, but in truth, nothing�s changed between us. As for Sakura, right now I�m going wait and see exactly what he wants.�
Angry, Hiei roughly grabbed Kurama�s chin and growled. �And are you going to do anything he wants too Fox!�
Yanking himself away, Kurama growled back. �Yes, if I have to!�
Embarrassed that Hiei knew what he�d been forced to do earlier, Kurama sighed wearily. �Hiei, you should go. I don�t want Sakura to find out that you�ve been here.�
Hiei nodded. �Alright Kurama, on one condition. When this is over, we need to talk.�
Despairingly, Kurama shook his head. �What�s the point Hiei?�
Stepping closer, Hiei grabbed a long red forelock and forced Kurama to look at him. �This is the point.�
Leaning closer, Hiei�s lips attempted to claim Kurama�s. Turning away, Kurama whimpered. �No Hiei. Not after what I did.�
Grabbing Kurama�s face with both hands, Hiei growled. �I don�t give a damn what that bastard made you do!�
To prove his point, Hiei captured Kurama�s lips in a firm kiss. It took a moment, but Hiei�s tongue finally coaxed Kurama�s lips to part as he surrendered to the kiss. Hesitantly, Kurama�s arms made their way around Hiei and held him tight. Pleased, Hiei�s hands left Kurama�s face to weave into his hair. Several minutes passed before they pulled apart, breathless.
When green eyes looked at him uncertainly, Hiei gave Kurama a rare little smile. �I�ll leave for now my beautiful Fox, but I�ll be watching your back, like I always have. I�ll let you take the lead on this, but make no mistake, if I think things are getting out of control, I�ll kill the bastard, even if the cost is Shiori�s life.�
Kurama�s eyes widened but he was prevented from arguing when Hiei kissed him again then flitted out the window. Kurama stood there several minutes contemplating Hiei�s words. Not wanting to consider the thought of losing Shiori, Kurama took the vile out of his pocked and held it up to the light a moment. �Alright, let�s see if I can figure out what�s in here.�
