The Heart of a Youko
by Mark Angelo Hosaka

"Ah,I have a good sleep,looks like my day will be great!"Kurama exclaimed happily as he langurously stretched his arms."Might as well start the day now looking fresh."Kurama stepped out of his bed & lazily scratch his calf.He entered his bathroom leak waste,take another bath,brush his teeth, pick his usual chinese style tunic,dress up,& finally leaves his room.

Everyone he met in the lobby,he greets with a smile & a heart warming"Ohayo".Well since they are a youkai they stared puzzledly at an over enthusiastic youko.He asks one of the female servants to where the dining room is.The servant just looked at him dreamily & shakingly point at the right side.When he smiled & left hopping happily he didn't see the servant faint at his oh so dreamy smile.

He found a seat & wait for a male youkai to enter the room & serve him breakfast.He once again thanked the youkai & the youkai blushed & smiled shyly.As he serve Kurama his breakfast he not so innocently brush the hand of the youko.& Kurama noticing these just raise an eyebrow & curse.Why the hell do I always get this expression he whined.Just as he was about to take the food in his mouth.A voice suddenly rise."Ohayo Kurama!"Kurama nearly spit his food & choke,the owner of the voice Yomi,quickly helped the Kitsune & offer some water which Kurama hastily drink.Gently rubbing the Kitsune's back."Don't ever do that again!"Kurama scolded wide eyed & gasping for air. "Gomen I didn't mean to do that."apologized Yomi.Kurama tried to smile & nodded.

"Anyway aren't you going to take breakfast,how about your son?Youkai's need food too you know." Kurama said in his glass."We already eat half an hour ago while your...."There's a blush in Yomi's cheeks."Ummmmm Taking a bath."Yomi stammered quite new for the Makai lord.Kurama widened his eyes & slammed the goblet in the table,"Did you watch me?"Kurama asked in a quite angry mood. "Huh?No you know my heightened senses.You if you forgot blinded me already so I just hear the water splattering over......"Yomi's blushed grew redder & so did Kurama."Well finish your breakfast already Shura is waiting for you.His new sensei."Yomi finally gaining composure & leaving Kurama to eat."Where're you going?"Kurama asked as he take a chicken like meat or something. "Oh,me.To my bedroom I am just going to do something."His back facing the Kitsune as he leaves the dining room.Kurama just shrugged & finish the breakfast.What is this?He asked to himself as he pick another chicken like wings.

After finishing the meal Kurama walked to the trainig room where he will practice & teach Shura. Shura on the other hand is already waiting for him with a grin in his face.

"Ohayo,Kurama-sama"came Shura's cheerful voice."Good morning too Shura."Kurama greeted & smiled one of his smiles that could melt an ice.Shura smiled back dumbly."So...ahhh...uuhhmm Kurama-sama are you going to train me huh? huh?"Shura stammered.Kurama is puzzled, the last time they met Shura is very foul mouthed & arrogant over him."Yes Shura,I will be your sensei now & you will succeed me after your Papa hand me his throne.So I want you to really toughened up ok?" maybe the boy finally mature.Kurama continued his line of thoughts."Yoshi."Shura answered happily. 

Kurama takes his fighting stance but not emitting any youki so did Shura but his youki is swirling in the room.His youki is strong commented Kurama.Then suddenly Shura attack leaving an image right in front of Kurama & attacks at Kurama's back.Kurama merely turned around & kick the boy right in the face sending him flying over the training ground."Don't be so predictable next time."Kurama lectured.Shura finally stand up & wipe the blood that trickled in his mouth with the back of his hand. Then threw Kurama a very untrusting smile,Kurama raised an eyebrow.As he feel another extreme powerful youki coming from Shura.Shura raised his palms & aim at the Kitsune & with an attack shout "Hhhaaaaiiiiii"Oddly no energy was released from Shura.Kurama frowned the youki is definitely from Shura but the source is not emitting from him it is as if......Kurama widened his eyes & immediately leapt before he was hit by a large purple energy ball that come from his back.So the brat could concentrate his energy at any place huh?Kurama smiled ,a very scary & evil smile.The purple ball returned to the boys fist & started to attack Kurama in mid-air which he effortlessly avoided as they both hit the ground.The place where Shura stood suddenly burst with weeds & grass which wrap the poor boy like a mummy.Shura tried to focus his ki but can't.He cursed"Shimmata!"

"Forget it I wrap you with plant wards everytime you try to use your youki the plant will simply absorb your ki through his stomates.So don't bother."Kurama explained, the boy finally calming & deciding to surrender."That's a nice trick you pulled there I never expected the attack but try to prevent from releasing too much youki it will give away your attacks."Kurama praised as well as lecture his new student."Doumo,sensei."Shura thanked with a childish smile he looks so kawaii.With a silent gesture to the plants,they shrunk themselves to the ground releasing Shura.The kid is not all that bad.Kurama smiled."So let's get on with it."as he bring out his famous rose whip.Shura nodded & release eighteen small plate like energy to protect himself.

After three hours of non-stop battles,the exhausted sensei finally took pity of the bruised,battered Shura"Training's over!"he finally declared.Shura let out an exhausted sigh & remove a vine still dangling at his shoulder.The two leave the training compound & go to a ningenkai looking hill.They lie on the grass."Shura don't be so agressive on your opponents if you attack without thinking you will just end up dead."Kurama put it grimly."H-hai."was all the boy could say while still catching his breath,He didn't even hit Kurama once but he used almost all of his youki."Try to reserve your youki,use it to many other ways,like diversions,& defense."Kurama added while closing his eyes & pillowing his palms.Shura nodded & imitate Kurama.Kurama smiled"Training is over let's get rest & continue our session tomorrow.I hope you will improve."As he finally drifts to sleep.

He was pushed back out of the dreamworld when he felt a strong arms circling his body,a heavy object resting in his stomach,legs straddling his waist & a hot mouth kissing his now bare chest.What the?he opened his eyes & found his student sitting in his stomach embracing him & kissing his chest.Licking it passionately."Shura!"Kurama fully awaked pushed Kurama out of his stomach."I like you Kurama ever since I see you in the tournament I fell in love with you."Shura admitted with lust in his half lidded eyes slightly blushing.

I never noticed before but Shura is no longer a kid.He grows taller, more mature looking,a handsome one in fact.He looks like a typical teenager except for the horn in his forehead & pointed ears.But still to young."I-I'm flattered Shura but you are still young ok?"Kurama,still stunned & shaken.So that's why he doesn't bite my head off.Thinking if he should be happy or agitated.Shura's face become angry."I am not a kid anymore.Dad said I could already produce chidren."Shura replied with pride.Kurama caugh violently.Shura seductively smiled."I want to test the theory & see if we could reproduce children.Ever since I met you I've been fantisizing you in my bed.Let's see if my fantasies are correct." as Shura approached Kurama.

Yomi has a hentai of a son.Kurama sighed inwardly.Slowly backing away from Shura's advances. "Shura we can't reproduce children."Kurama tried reasoning."So?I just want to taste your delicious body."Shura licked his lips like a wolf staring at a delicious meat.

Then a voice came."Shura stopped harassing Kurama."Yomi's voice & looking quite angry at his son. "But I just wanna taste Kurama."Shura protested.

Kurama groaned.Yomi is really pissed of "I said stop it."Yomi warned, youki emitting.Then Shura offered "How about we share him we could take turns.I'll let you be the first."

Yomi suddenly stopped looks like going to take the offer Kurama just gulped & held his breath.What am I an object?Kurama asked to himself.Good thing Yomi although clearly seen that he reluctantly refuse."No is no Shura."Shura pouted & sulked.

"I-I-I think I should be leaving now."Kurama nervously said."I apologized for my son's rude & impolite behavior."Yomi replied & turn again to Shura.Kurama immediately left before Yomi change his mind.As he runs away from the two a powerful surge is seen.Yomi must be punishing the kid.Kurama mused.

As Kurama about to enter he saw a large number of youkais of different species & sexes holding something in front of Yomi's castle.Is there a party I am not informed about?Kurama asked to himself. As he get nearer a pretty Cat demon saw him."It's Kurrrraaaaamaaaa-cchhhhaaannnn!!!!"She squealed.With her eyes shaping like a heart along with everyone smiling dreamily to him.

Uh-oh I recognize that love sick gesture everywhere.If I value my life I better run like I never run before.With that last thought he start running that would make Hiei look like a turtle.& the entire mob of fans came running to catch him since these fans are not your everyday fan club they too pushing their speed limits to catch the luscious kitsune.Everyone shouting & screaming his name. "Kuuurrraaammaaaa-ccchhhhaaannn."came a shrill voice."You are so kawaii!"came another."could I bed you?"came from a male fan.everybody sweatdrop."You're hair is gorgeous!"came another.

Kurama winced sooner or later they will catch up to him.I thought these problem was solved when I leaved the Ningenkai looks like it doesn't.Kurama thought.Then the unimaginable happen,the ever so nimble youko tripped!& so the inevitable happened all of the hordes of fans came swarming over him offering a bunch of flowers,worshiping him.....& uuuhhh......asking to have sex.

Out of nowhere"Jao Ensatsu Korkuryuhaa!"& a black dragon came devouring the youkai fans & turning them to ashes leaving the harrassed looking kitsune alive & well but shock can be clearly seen. The owner of the dragon suddenly appeared right in front of him offering his hand."Thanks I needed that."Kurama thanked Hiei as he accept the hand to stand up."Hn.you alright?"Hiei asked slightly hinting concern."Why Hiei maybe I should be the one asking that you are showing concern!!" Kurama teased the fire demon.Hiei snorted & look away blushing."Hey do you have anything to do?" asked Kurama placed his hand on his bestfriend's shoulde.Hiei shrug the hand making it fall & shook his head."Would you accompany me for a while?"Kurama asked.

Hiei just nodded.

They walked & found a grassland they just sit there enjoying the warmth of te sun.Relaxing Ok Kurama is the only one relaxing Hiei is tense & waiting for an incoming attack in any direction.His eyes gazing & flitting everywhere his hands set on is katana ready to slice anything that hints to hurt them.Kurama notice this & say"Hiei would you relax no one is gonna harm us ok?Yomi & Mukuro will be quite pissed if they dare to touch us & besides no one would be stupid enough to attack two high S-class.Wouldn't they?So stop pacing sit & enjoy the sun."with that Kurama close his eyes & do what he says.Hiei finally give up & lay on his back too pillowing his hands & gaze at the sky."I enjoy the tranquility here,don't you?"Kurama spoked & not expecting an answer "I am tired of people praising & worshipping me at least you won't do that to me."Kurama chuckled."You won't even do that to the most perfect creature in the world."Since Kurama closed his eyes he didn't see Hiei's uneasiness at his words.Baka!It is you.Hiei said to his mind.

They were silent for the rest of the time.Kurama will just talk a little & Hiei will just listen.Just enjoying each other's company siently.After a while Kurama resumes his sleep that was prevented by the Shura incident.Sleeping soundly face angelic & innocent.Hiei has the best view of this Kitsune's face since he is facing him.

Hiei still on guard to anyone who will come near his slumbering friend.He brush a few strand of hair in Kurama's face,gently stroking the beautiful red mane.He sigh contently & resume his brushing. Everyone will envy him if they found out I could do this to Kurama.He smirk evilly.& unknown if Kurama is aware or not he slips his arm to Hiei's waist & snuggle smiling.Hiei tense but after a short while relax & continue his brushing.

Kurama sleeps so soundly & Hiei is enjoying too much the contact of body with his bestftriend they didn't realize that it is already sunset.Hiei regretfully wakes Kurama up."Fox,Fox wake up it's sun down already.You better go back to Gandara."as Hiei shake his friend.

"Hmmnnn.Ok,ok I'm up already enough shaking."Kurama finally sit up give a yawn & rub his eyes. Kurama looks so beautiful when he is doing that he looks sexy.Hiei commented."Hiei look."Kurama is gazing to the plain horizon.So Hiei look at the same direction."When the Makai sun is setting it looks so breath taking so peaceful & so calm.It gives Makai the impression of tranquility instead of a world of turmoil & chaos."Kurama speak with calmness in his tone.Hiei too appreciates this event he never saw not even once the beauty of Makai since he is always fighting & killing here but when he is with this fox everything seems beautiful everything seems alive."Come on let's go."Hiei whispered to Kurama.

After a few hours Kurama finally arrived at Gandara.Hiei quickly leaves after escorting him out of Mukuro's borders to Yomi's borders which from the coming time both will own.As he get nearer to Yomi's castle his sharp eyes caught something at the garden.Being a curious kitsune he went near it & found the two.Yomi & Shura gazing at the sky both peaceful & relaxed but a big bruise is clearly seen at Shura's cheek because of his lust action that afternoon.Looks like the two is finally resolved he let out a playful chuckle & enters the elegantly decorated front door.

After eating dinner,Kurama immediately enter his room to finally finish his exhausting day.He slumped his body at his bed letting himself fall into the soft warm bed.As the bed vibrates at the sudden weight & close his eyes.Then suddenly he remembered Hiei.Why is Hiei keep popping in my mind recently.His my bestfriend for God's sake.I shouldn't let my youko hormones get the best of me. But the problem is my human side wants that little runt.He let out a sigh.Anywat it will pass....I hope so.

Kurama suddenly bolted out of bed.Got to take a bath.He pick a towel & his robes in the closet.& headed to the bathroom.After closing the door he immediately take a shower hot water pouring over his gorgeous body.Aahhh that feels good.He moaned.Uhhhhhh.

Meanwhile......

"Damn Kurama why do you have to be so sexy when you moan.Don't you know I can hear you." Yomi is painfully clutching at his throne's arm chair."Aahhh Yoda."He called that attention of his right hand."Yes Yomi-sama."answered the old youkai."I need to go to my room already ok."said Yomi. "Are you ok Master? It is so early to go to bed sir.Are you feeling sick?"Yoda asked showing his concern.

Yomi gritted his teeth.Yes I am fevered with desire by a sensual foxy Youko & I need to release it somehow even by my own.Yomi answered in his mind & still remain his calm facade."No Yoda I am just tired & I want to sleep early."with that the Makai Lord proceed to his quarter.

Whisphers are heard among servants & guards."Saa Yomi-sama is acting funny nowadays."said one of the guards guarding the front door."Since Kurama-sama arrived yesterday.You know what I think Kurama-sama...."Whispered the other one.

Yoda sweatdropped & yell at the guards."If you still value your life shaddup!!You know very well that Yomi-sama could here you.So unless you really wanna die painfully go ahead & gossip."shouted the fuming Yoda."Yes sir."both unison said.

Back at Kurama's room.......

"Ok have a nice bath.Aaahhhh finally I could go to sleep after this tiring day."Kurama talk to himself as he dries his hair with the towel.Where is that brush.Kurama look back & forth until he found it at a table.He then sits in front of the mirror & brush his elegant hair.

He then felt a familiar youki nearby.He put down the brush & went to the terrace.& there is his Romeo grumbling & cursing as he balance himself at the handle of the terrace right hand at his back as if trying to hide something."Hi Hiei,& to what do I owe the visit?"Kurama leans on the door.Hiei just stare at him as if mesmerized looking at his feet then to his legs which is slightly shown letting his eyes rest there then at his stomach then slightly open chest then to his face.Then his expression returned to the stoic feature."Hn I forget to give you something."Kurama smells so good.

"What? what is it?"Kurama asked excitedly.He approaches the Koorime.Hiei smell more of the perfumed aroma of Kurama. "Close your eyes first."Hiei said smirking.Kurama halted then look at Hiei suspiciously "What are you up to?"He asked the firedemon.Hiei scowled"Just do what I damn says & shut up!!"Hiei growled.Kurama immediately obeyed.Hiei's low voice said "Kneel down." Kurama kneeled at his feet.

Suddenly he felt the back of his hair is being lifted exposing his neck then something slid into it & a round thing falls at his chest.Kurama looked at it & saw it was a teargem Hiei's teargem.As he lifts his head to face the firedemon.His lips were smothered by another hot mouth.Although obviously the kisser is inexperienced but still sweet even so.So Kurama just closed his eyes & enjoy it.He instinctively put his hand on the kisser's chest.

The kiss was short,since the kisser is still inexperienced & Kurama,the kissee' is shocked to the bones.As he slowly opened his eyes he found out that it was Hiei waiting for a reaction.Kurama's mouth moved but no sounds come out he stared at Hiei with wide eyes."Wh-why did you do that for?"He asked with voice a little trembly & as if he ran out of air.He then notice that he had a bouquet of flowers some are really exotic & beautiful & some are just weeds in his hands.

Hiei then mumbled"Because--because I--love you."He speak so quick Kurama almost didn't understand it.Hiei in the meantime can't look at the Kitsune he glares at his foot & expecting rejection as his body is tense to leave.You got me now youko so please don't....don't hurt me.You are all to me.Kurama was slightly shocked at the confession but when he finally recovers he felt Hiei tensing to leave he quickly grab the youkai."Hiei wait."He force Hiei to look at him in his eyes which he reluctantly do so.Kurama asked with seriousness in his voice.His hands cupping Hiei's face."Do you mean it?".Hiei just closed his eyes bit his lips & nodded.When Kurama sees a affimative answer he bent down & hug the firedemon close."Oh Hiei I love you too."with tears in his eyes.

Hiei's eyes opened shock for a moment.Then smile a natural smile hugged back the stupid fox that love him possessively."I love you....I love you.....I love you..."as his voice was muffled by Kurama's red hair.
