This is for my friend the BattyPu. I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho.

The Bat, The Fox, and Trouble.

Run, running is good. Running faster is even better. Yoko thought this as he ran through the forest after robing a demon lord. The guards were catching up. Yoko was screwed if they caught up to him. He picked up speed and was almost at a safe distance when he tripped. He fell face first to the ground. The guards were now hovering right over him. Yep he was screwed. "Hay look we caught the famous fox bandit Yoko Kurama." One of the guards laughed at the cringing fox demon. Yoko ground his teeth as they bond his wrist and ankles. After his bindings were on tightly they started to kick and punch the helpless Yoko. As he started to cough up blood he let out a whimper. Please someone help me anyone, please Yoko thought.

In a Clearing in the Forest

Kuronue was flying around looking for a good fight as he landed he heard a faint whimper from inside the woods. Being curious he decided to fowl the noise. As he flew over an area close to an outpost of a demon lord he saw a sliver fox spirit being beat by the guards. He landed behind a nearby tree to get a better look. As he looked a little closer he saw that the fox was bond at his hands and feet. "Were going to take you back to our lord. He has been looking for a new toy to play with." One of the guards teased as they picked up the helpless Yoko. Even thought he was weakened the Yoko still screamed and cursed at his captors. At one curse one of the guards took Yoko's tale into his hands and started to bend it. There was a loud crack and a scream as Yoko's tale was broken. Yoko was going to vomit, "Help, Please someone help." Yoko sobbed. "No one is going to help you." the guards laughed. "I wouldn't say that" Kuronue said walking out from the shadows. His pendent quickly sent out a shock wave killing all the guards but not the Yoko. Kuronue saw that the Yoko was about to land on his broken tall. He flew and caught him bridle style and flew off.

After flying in silence for awhile than Yoko spoke, "Thank you, for saving me."

"No problem. Couldn't let a clever fox be killed so easily. So I'm guessing you're the famous Yoko Kurama."

"That is correct. May I ask who you are?"

"My names Kuronue."

Yoko saw that they were flying and spotted Kuronue's bat wings and asked, "Were are you taking me Kuronue?"

"To my home you need to heal."

Yoko gasped as he saw long fang like teeth in the bat's mouth. "You're a Vampire demon! He struggled in Kuronue's grip and started to fall. Kuronue had to dive to catch the Yoko.

"WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT!"

Yoko whimpered as Kuronue dug his nails into the Yoko's already bloody skin. Kuronue realizing what he had done apologized. Vampire demons were feared by all but in the end they were just like all demons. As the sun started to rise they dove under the trees. Yoko had to wrap his arms around Kuronue's neck as they navigated threw the trees. It was almost night before they stopped to rest by a lake. Kuronue laid the Yoko on his stomach not hurt his broken tail. He stared at the unmoving fox. Kuronue wanted some conversation, "So what's it like being a theft?"

No answer

"Yoko? Hay fox are you going to answer me or am I going to have to talk to myself all night?"

Still no reply

"For God sakes I'm not going to bite you. I only bite to kill or to clam a life partner okay!"

"Promise not to bite me and set me free the second that I'm healed completely."

"Want to get back to your family that badly?"

"I have no family." Yoko sad coolly.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't know that must have been hard."

"No my father tried to claim me for his own when my mother died. My siblings would hold be down while he would play with me. So I ran away and here I am now." A tear slid down Yoko's face. It was lonely life but it was safe. Until he was caught and now he was in the care of a Vampire demon. He gasped as he felt someone washing his wounds. While Yoko was lost in thought Kuronue had ripped a piece of his shirt off to use as a rag.

"I'm sorry that happened to you I wish I could've helped you."

Yoko was shocked; nobody had cared about him for a long time. (Accept for trying to catch him for stealing) He Yelped as Kuronue hit his tall by accident.

"I'm sorry, wow they did quiet a number on you."

"Why did you save me Kuronue?"

Kuronue thought about it. He truly didn't know why he had saved the sliver fox. "I don't know, it just felt like the right thing to do." After Kuronue said that Yoko and him were silent until Yoko was all cleaned. Kuronue got up when he looked back down at the fox he was shaking. Kuronue always was home by now and packed light so he had no blanket. He did the next best thing he could think of, he laid down next to Yoko. He wrapped an arm around the Yoko and the fox stopped shivering. Yoko looked at Kuronue with his gold eyes and whispered, "Thank you." After that they both fell asleep.

Ok ppl how do you like. This will be a Kuronue Yoko fic soon. (Yoko glomps the bat) R&R .
