Yomi was once again doing the right thing. His dedication to Kurama was not false, and he was really sad. In a way, he more than pardoned Kurama, and was practically being a father to him, something that could benefit him and Kurama as well.
Tsukiyomi arrives soon after, and she gets horrified when see that Kurama lost a lot of blood:
-How horrible!!! We need to solve this now!
-Do that, Tsukiyomi. I'm very sad now to do anything ... - Yomi goes to his bedroom. A tear trickles down his face.
-Alright! Dear, let's help him!- Tsukiyomi calls Hoshiyomi, who answers promptly.
While they take care of the bandages, Yomi isolate himself in its room with Shura. Kibitoshin realized how depressed he was, and did not dare invade his space. Although he did not cause this problem to Kurama directly, Yomi blames herself for being inattentive;
-I ... I failed ... I could have avoided this ... what will Enma think?
The spikes that went deep into Kurama's neck had already returned completely, largely because Yomi rescued and hugged the former ex-enemy. Such action had a tremendous impact over Kurama's training. His foot is still bleeding due the injuries caused by shoot.
-Give me that gel, dear! We're going to need a lot here!- Tsukiyomi moves gently Kurama's necklace, enough to lift it up and get access to the injuries it caused.
Kurama is in a near-hibernation state. He had never bleed as much as today, a situation where, even as Youko, can kill him. Tsukiyomi successfully stopped the bleeding, and she also applied some special creams to kill any bacteria that were present there, although Youko was immune to diseases caused by bleeding. Kurama wakes up a while later, and Tsukiyomi smiles to him;
-It's all right ... you can walk in a short time, Kurama- Tsukiyomi caress his forehead.
-Oh that's good Tsukiyomi ... your sweet eyes make me calmer and, helps me to recover my energy faster ... I do not know how to thank you for what you is doing ...
Tsukiyomi blushes for the compliments Kurama gives her, and she really deserves it;
-I want you alive, nothing more than it ...
-I will survive, even if I have to give all, aaaahhh!
-Calm down, it's okay. I'll give you some help.
-Thank you.
Tsukiyomi helps Kurama to stand up. After the injury is completely closed, his energy begins to rise rapidly and he can even walk on his own in a matter of two minutes. He immediately hugs Tsukiyomi as a gesture of gratitude;
-You're almost my second mom ... I do not know how to thank you in a decent way other than just hugging you...
Tsukiyomi waits for Kurama to move away, and she smoothes his fluffy ears;
-Just continue being our Kurama, whom we both love and trust. Oh, and maybe you should go to Yomi's room on the side to tell him you're okay.
-Sure, Tsukiyomi. Thank you again.
-I did not do anything but my heart desire, my dear.
Kurama smiles to Tsukiyomi, and goes Yomi's bedroom, getting into slowly;
-Yomi ...
-Kurama?
-Yes…
Yomi gets up, and stands still. His T-shirt is wet with tears, but Kurama don't care, and runs to hug him;
-Kurama...
-I'm also your friend. The best of them. Do not forget it...
Yomi also hugs him tightly, perhaps in a way that he has never done with anyone except Shura;
-You're almost my second son, Kurama ... if there's anyone who should protect you in any way, it's me ...
-You give me the safety I need to continue ...
Kurama's youki energy rises almost to the level that was before the brief fight he had, and where he almost died. Everything that happened between him and Yomi from that moment ahead surely serve to solidify the foundations of a great friendship of at least two thousand years.
Suddenly, Kurama's necklace breaks in two parts, falling to the ground and vaporizing next, making a noise noticed by Yomi;
-Kurama, look !!!
-Yomi! I'm ... I'm free?
They undo the hug in which they were involved. Kurama feels his neck relieved, but then faints. Yomi naturally despairs again, even though he is listening to Kurama's normal heartbeat;
-He needs to go to bed and rest. He's very tired, so he cannot stand.
Yomi takes Kurama to the bed, and leaves him there. Kibitoshin enters the bedroom soon after, and gets frightened;
-Yomi, but Kurama is so different!
-No problem, he's just tired.
-No, that's not it! It is that he is without the necklace and is half-human and half-youko!
Yomi caress Kurama's face, and notes the texture difference between Youko and Minamino's hair. He smiled;
-That does not matter, Kibitoshin. The important thing is that he is alive and now, safe.
-Is not that a death principle?
-Hahaha no, he's normal, and his body is working fine. Kurama hibernated and Shuichi, seeing that the barrier that existed between them disappeared, is trying to regain control over the body.
Inside Kurama, Shuichi begins to see something, although much blurred. Youko, injured, stands in his front;
-YOUKO? YOUKO!!! COME ON!!!
Shuichi hugs Youko tightly, and he responds in the same intensity, doing it for a long time. Shuichi is the one who has the strongest emotional reaction, and cries hard;
-Youko .... You're mine again ... how much I miss you ...
-Do not worry Shuichi, I will never left you, I need you to live, just as I do not left anything in this life!
Yomi and Kibitoshin can see Kurama hugging himself, and a tear trickling down. Yomi laughed at that scene, under the fearful eyes of Kibitoshin:
-But Mr. Yomi, he's hallucinating !!!
-Hahaha, nothing like that, Kibitoshin. Quite possibly Shuichi and Youko have met and are hugging themselves after stay a week away from each other.
-But...but..
-Okay, you will not understand this duality as I know it because I've been with Kurama for at least 3,000 years and I know how he acts. From a cold and cruel killer like Youko to a simple weak and fearful human boy like Shuichi.
-Ah, being like that ...
Youko and Shuichi remains hugged. An intense glow surrounds them, and Shuichi's form begins to overlap Youko, who goes onto Kurama;
-Go back home, my dear friend ... you need to rest for a long time ...-Shuichi says to Youko, who smiles at him.
Kibitoshin tries to go to Kurama to see if he is waking up, but is blocked by Yomi;
-Not yet, let's take it easy.
-It's all right.
Kurama stretches on the bed, rising with difficulty. Yomi stays where he is, and Kibitoshin accompanies him;
-Oh, Kurama. Congratulations! How do you feel now that you've been approved? Yomi got for a rose for him.
-Oh Yomi, thank you ... I'm relieved to have resisted all this, better, Youko has overcome himself again ... I will never know how to thank him, and also thank you for saving me ...
-Okay, Kurama, that's part of my life goal. You will never have any debt with me. And I'm very happy now that you passed this so hard test.
-I do not know if it was a message of approval, I'll only know when to go in the spirit world to be sure. Luckily that necklace came off my neck, it gone into me almost six inches.
-Wow, Kurama! I saw that the damage was great, and that you were injured in the foot too.
-Truth…
-Well, Kurama, I invite you to join me for tea and tell me what happened. The rest does not interest me now.
- All right, Yomi, let's go ...
Yomi leaves the room, along with Kibitoshin and Kurama. Hoshiyomi and Tsukiyomi hugs Kurama simultaneously;
-Oh good that you're back! We were very worried!
-I saw, and I deeply thank all the effort you have made for me, my friends ...
-Oh, it was nothing more than our obligations.
-Hoshiyomi, let's have some tea? Choose flavors carefully!- Yomi jokes.
-Yes, it's for now!
Hoshiyomi goes to warm up water and bring the infusions. Kurama and Yomi sit side by side on the couch, surrounded by Tsukiyomi and Kibitoshin. As soon as Hoshiyomi arrives, they all serve their tea;
-Well, now that we're all here, I'll tell you what happened, Yomi.
-Come on, Kurama, I'm anxious.- Yomi turns to him.
-Well, then ... in the morning, I was coming here when a car stopped next to me and some substance was injected into my vein. At that moment I fainted and saw nothing else.
- A kidnapping ... just now when our monitoring systems in your area were under maintenance. - Yomi analyzes.
-Yes ... and then I was taken to a place I did not know, and I was introduced by five guys to a tall, bald boy. He threatened me, kicked me, and shoot my foot. When trying to kill me, I used a small plant stuck in my sandal to cut off his hand and the gun. The other enemies came to knock me down, but I used the rose whip and defeated them all ... then I just remember that the necklace was activated and the spikes pierced my neck in several places ... I've never felt so much pain! I fell off the second floor of that building and after that Yomi arrived and saved me.
-Hijackers here are very rare!- Hoshiyomi gets shocked.
-Kurama, have you no idea who these guys were?- Yomi asks.
-I do not know who they are, I've never seen them. They are from outside Yomitan, but I imagine they are from the Revolutionary party. They wanted access to Yomitan's city hall budget system to try to control it.
-What disgusting people!- Yomi gets furious.
-Yes, and I'm afraid this will happen again.
-It will not happen, Kurama. I'll protect you, and I'll go to opposition's leader asking for explanations.
-I fear for the safety of the other Yomitan municipalities too, Yomi. Maybe it was an action from a radical group or something.
-Possible. Well, I'll get in touch with them personally, and I'll also see how your situation will be, as you killed one person, that means I'll have to be your lawyer on the charges that will come.
-Right.
-Killing someone must be an experience only Youko is capable of, right?- Tsukiyomi asks.
-Actually, when there's no option, it's the right thing to do. Just associate the figure of the youkai monsters that you and Hoshiyomi killed.
-That's true, we know that.
-Well, I'll streamline this. I am sure that in a few minutes the patrol in Miyang will call here and report the incident.
-The damage was huge and I can assure you ... it's not every day that you see someone with no head.
-This is terrible ... but like you said, there was no alternative.- Hoshiyomi looks at Tsukiyomi.
Yomi gets up;
-Well, now I'm going to resume my work. You can come back too if you want or talk some more.
-All right, Yomi, I'm going with you.
-Okay, Kurama.
A few hours later, the legal medical department went to the building where Kurama was almost killed. The other injured thugs had already fled. The body of the gang leader was over the floor, and his head on the other side. The crime scene was isolated and the corpse, collected.
Bombs, cash and lots of campaign material from Revolutionary party were found. The images were released to the press, and the coverage caused enormous repercussions;
-Look at this, Yomi. The trouble will be enormous for the opposition.
-They're picking what they've planted.
Upon arriving at the end of his work day, Yomi went to Kurama's room, coming behind him and massaging his shoulders;
-I'm coming with you to your house today.
-Oh really? Why?
-For safety.
-It's all right. Let's go?
-Of course, I'm ready.
Yomi descends with Kurama and finds Tsukiyomi;
-I'll be back in about one hour. You or Hoshiyomi can took the decisions for me in that time?
-All right, Mr. Yomi. See you later Kurama, good rest- Tsukiyomi smiles at Kurama.
-To you too, Tsukiyomi.
Kurama returned home accompanied by Yomi, who now intends to do this all time. His presence scares Shiori, who is already shaken to know Kurama was almost killed;
-My Shuichi, you're back!- She runs and hugs him.
-Yes, mom, and better than ever.
-I was very worried about what happened to you today ...
-Yomi saved me.
-He? Oh really?
-There are some situations where only I can help Kurama, Miss Shiori. Situations where our knowledge of 3,000 years of experience is important.
-I hope you do not trouble my Shuichi again!
-Shuichi is now guarded by me. Tomorrow morning I'll be here to pick him up.
-I hope so!
-And it will be. Take care Shuichi, but do not forget that I will always be close in case of need.
-All right, Yomi.
Before leaving, Kurama hugs Yomi tightly, then lets him go. Shiori observes the son's behavior;
-But what the hell is going on with my Shuichi, when he got that time out, he turned out to be sweeter than normal?
-Well, mom, you missed me, did not you?- Shuichi embraces Shiori.
-Yes, although you look so gorgeous in your pure form too...- Shiori caress his hair with his hands.
-Youko will still manifest a lot, do not worry about it!
-It's ok. Shall we get into? Later I have classes and cannot take long.
-Right!
As soon as they enter, Shiori prepares his son's snack;
-I know this is going to sound absurd, but do you have any desire for Yomi? I've never seen you hugging him so tightly.
-No, mom, hahaha. It's just a sign that I like him and respect him, and I'm trying to thank him that way.
-Good, then, my son. You know, I'm beginning to like him by this side.
-Yomi is a nice guy, mom. It is that you know him very little, but as the time passes you will see that he is good.
-Who knows...
-The future may reserve some surprises, hahaha!
Shiori looks at Kurama and blushes instantly;
-Do not think about it, Shuichi! He would not have the profile I want!
-Yeah, Yomi is a guy who knows how to conquer in many ways ...
-But for this he is blind, hahaha!
-I only know that I know nothing!
Kurama and Shiori make the snack and he goes to school. No big surprise, classmates have become accustomed to his duality, although the girls certainly prefer youko because of the ears and provocative clothing. As Shuichi, the grades have now returned to normal levels, with some improvement after Youko's study.
Tsukiyomi arrives soon after, and she gets horrified when see that Kurama lost a lot of blood:
-How horrible!!! We need to solve this now!
-Do that, Tsukiyomi. I'm very sad now to do anything ... - Yomi goes to his bedroom. A tear trickles down his face.
