I raced towards the exposion of chakra. It was definatly Yuri's I could feel something else too...was it.....Maki? I accelerated even faster and found myself at the graveyard. Maki's chakra was definatly here! I found them at once.
"Heheh going to see me off Hachi?" Yuri laughed. She was bleeding, but then my eyes caught Maki. My heart nearly exploded.
"Maki!" I yelled.
"Hachi!" Maki yelled back, "Yuri! She's going to die! Please Hachi! Pleae help her!"
"You didn't," I said looking at Yuri.
"Heheh I had too..." Yuri answered, "Maki is my friend....and you've saved me more times than one.....and I couldn't stand to see you like you were.....I guess teh biju club will have one less Akatski to worry about.....hehe."
"You are not allowed to die!" I yelled, "Ryusemi can you do anything?"
"It seems I can help you but the jutsu you need to do is an ancient art far older than yourself," Ryusemi answered, "And at the end of it, she will lose her memories of everything except the basis of her thoughts, her family."
"You are hiding ssssomething," I hissed.
'Well you see....the jutsu magnitued I will need will cost you half your remaining lifespan," he answered.
"No memories?" I asked.
"No.....this needs far more chakra. Your memories only provide so much. This amount will shorten half your life. Are you willing to do this?"
"Sssure," I answered, "No reassson to live that long anyways. I have a couple thousssand years ahead of me......take a few."
"Alright."
"Hachi! Don't!" Yuri ordered, "Don't because even if you do it, I won't have any memories of you guys! Please Hachi please! Don't do this!"
"Yuri," I said, "You have had a dammed life even with the small happinessses you gained from Shukaku, and I refussse to sssee it end here. I'm sssorry Yuri."
The jutsu was long and straining every nerve and muscle. Ryusemi guided me on how to do it perfectly. After I finished, I felt a wave of chakra leave. I was left brethless.
Yuri was laying on the ground and sat up. Her eyes were solid black. I sighed and took a few deep breaths.
"Who are you?" She asked, "I'm Yurikami! Do you know where we are and why we're here?"
"This is a grave yeard," Maki answered. Maki was proping me up or else I would fall straight over.
"I'm Hachi.....and I was comming to sssee a friend of mine here," I answered.
"Oh your friend died?" Yuri asked.
"Ya sssshe was a nice perssson who got mixed up with the wrong crowd and died....." I answered.
"But she died saving me," Maki answered.
"Wow your friend was awesome," Yuri said happily, "Anyways I'm going to go on home now ok? Bye!"
"Hachi.....do you think Yuri will ever be Yuri again?" Maki asked.
"I don't know......but I bet we will see her again."

Ok ppls the whole memory thing was from Yuri's and my talk on the comments so don't spazz or anything. Byes!
Francis carefully studied the spiderweb in the corner of his new room (Neka's old room)
He reached his hand up and let the spider crawl onto his fingers. He smirked as the spider's fangs broke his flesh. Little did the spider know that it's poison had no affect on Francis.
But his mind slipped into a memory. One he wished he could take away.
Matthew opened the door loudly, laughing softly. Francis was sitting on his bed, once meditating.
"You should have joined us Francis, Neka and I." Matt said, flopping onto his own bed.
"You know Father does not allow such things." he said, his eyes still closed.
"Aw, c'mon! Nekomata needs both of us..." he said, whispering the last 5 words.
Francis snapped one eye open. "Nekomata doesn't NEED us, YOU just can't take the responsibilities of being a middle child."
"At least I care about her. YOU just sit around with Father all day. No fun." he argued.
"At least I actually listen more carefully. Your demon should have had no trouble with that, but no. Somehow I listen better." Francis sighed, closing his eye.
"Just because I'm a bat, doesn't mean a stupid spider like you doesn't eavesdrop!" he snapped.
"You're going to get yourself killed. If she attaches herself to only one person, she could lose control of her demon and kill you. That is why I can't become close."
Matthew was dumbfounded. "You mean, just because you could lose your life, means that you...HATE her?? What a coward."
"THAT'S IT!" Francis yelled. He jumped up and shot spiderwebs across to Matt. Matthew then ripped open his 4 bat wings and broke the webs.
They fought some more before the biggest mistake ever happened. Nekomata walked through the doorway. She became angry at Francis for attacked Matthew. Her dark chakra boiled through her veins.
Her cat claws shot out at Francis, but missed and beheaded Matthew...
Francis cringed. He won't remember the reaction that Father had, and swooped him up and forced him to travel for over ten years. Nekomata couldn't remember what had happened, and was told Francis had killed Matthew.
The biggest mistake was not being there for Nekomata...
Maki jumped right in the middle of our fight. There was blood everywhere. I couldn't speak after saying Maki's name a few times. Maki... she was my best friend... And now... and now she's... dead by my hands... It's my fault... no... its not my fault! It's all Kenji's fault! From the very beginning!!! He was gonna pay!
I slowly walked up to Hachimata and the lifeless Maki....
"M-Maki... Maki I..." I started. "I didn't mean to... I didn't want... this to happen..." Tears were coming. This human... was so kind to me... Such kindness should not be gone... Such a human should have life! I ran toward Grandfather.
"Grandfather! It's time to end this! Please, Give me a boost up! Truat me!" I told him.
"I trust you to end this the right way Yurikami",he responded and threw me in the air. I coffed my hands in a ball again and aimed right for Kenji's head. "Go!!" I yelled and the orange beam went through Kenji's head. He roared and was unconious. I was as well. It was time to end this. This time... I will be the one to kill him...
In Kenji's head, I seen nothing but him. He roared at me. I just stood there. What's going on??!?! .... It's you!! Why you... I'LL KILL YOU!!! he roared.
"Well you see, you got it all wrong. I will be the one who does the killing around here. And you... oh yes. You will be the first and last murder of my day." I told him.
"You won't win!!! This is my head!!!" he snapped.
"Yes... It's your head. But... it's my jutsu." I said to him, confedently. He charged after me but I instantly froze him. I walked up to his chest and pierced my hand into it, dragging out his heart and destroying it. Jenji roared in pain and slammed onto the floor. He was dead.
By the time I woke up, everyone was gone. Even grandfather. All was gone except mother. Mother ran towards me when she noticed me getting up. "Yurikami!" She yelled out to me. She helped me up.
"I did it.... I killed him... at last he's gone..." I told her. She nodded meaning she knew. His body seemed to disappered. I didn't care though. My friend was gone. Hachimata must be suffering right about now.
Why? Why was I brought in this world? All I caused was pain and suffering... I had to bring her back. I had to bring Maki-san back!!! I walked up to father's grave. "Father... I need you right now" I said to the grave sight. Suddendy the light came forth and father appeared.
"What is it, my Yuri-Yuri?" he asked.
"I need you to contact my friend named Maki. I... I'm going to bring her back." I told him.
"I understand. I'm contacting her right now." father stood there. He did nothing but just stood their. Then suddedly another figure appeared infront of my. It was Maki. She wore a white and gold robe like father and had wings on her back. "Yuri?" she questioned.
"Yes it's me Maki... Please come with me. I want you to have life again. You desirve it. And Hachimata probabally misses you alot... Do you miss him?" I asked the angel.
"Yes!! Yes I do! Please Yurikami... I love him so much..." she cried.
"Then come with me. True that you are just a spirit right now but you will soon be one with you body with my special jutsu. Please, ball yourself into my hands." I said to her. And she did. I coffed her into my hands and felt the presence of her body from far way. I transported to the body and dug up the grave. At last I came up to the coffin and took out Maki's body. Maki's body was cold and she wore a white dress.
I placed the lifeless boddy on the floor and drew a picture of my curse mark all around her. "Maki... are you ready?" I asked the floating glowing ball.
"Yes..." It said. I knelt down on one knee, closed my eyes, and placed a hand on my chest. I placed the other hand on Maki's chest and placed the spirit of Maki in the body. The floor glowed. I started to chant a prayer and then a little spell grandfather taught me. It was only taught to the bobcat clan. My body glowed a bright orange and her body glowed a bright baby blue. My glow then went into Maki's body, and so did her glow. I opened my eyes slowly and looked at Maki. "Maki?..." I questioned. I waited for an answer... That's when her eyes began to open.
"Y-Yurikami..." She whisphered. I smiled. She sat up and hugged me. "Yurikami!!! Thank you. Thank you very much." she thank me.
"Now you can be with the man you love Maki. You should die while in love with someone you know" I told her and hugged back. We stopped hugging and I helped her up. Suddendly I started to cough uncontrollablly. I dropped to my knees. I covered my mouth. "Yuri, are you okay?", Maki asked very worrided.
In my hands, I saw blood. Maki noticed it as well. "Yeah I'm okay. The effect of the jutsu is staring to take place." I started to cough again. I became very weak. "What's going to happen to you?" she asked. I paused for a second. I looked her to her, smiled, and answered her question.
"... I am going to die."
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Note- I never thought it would come to Yurikami using this jutsu. This jutsu saves another life but not her own. Her chakra will drain out untill she is dead. Giving her chakra would not reverse the effect, it would only give more time to live, knowing she was going to die sooner or later. Yurikami didn't care anymore. She wanted her friends to live. Now she was going to die... There is a way to stop this and ONLY one way. There is no other way to reverse it but the one I know... Yurikami refuse to tell though... Say your good byes while you can.....
P.S. Sorry to the people that wanted to save Maki... but this is my final desision.
Hachimata-san jumped right in front of me. "Where did you get thisss anyway?" He asked. I smiled. "I was born at a shrine so thats why I have this seal and much much more", I answered. I then bowed. "I am sorry that Maki-san died I just want everything to go back to the way it was". Kai looked at Hachi and it seemed he didn't know what was going on. I took out Maki's chakra bottle. "I could bring her back to life or bring her back as a half demon like me. He then stared at me. "I do not trusssst you", Haichi then said. I blinked. "I understand you wouldn't trust me because we hardly no each other but Maki will turn out different as a half demon as me". I grabbed a glass of water from their sink.
Kai and Hachimata looked confused at what I was showing them. I took the glass of water and poured it over myself. Forms of electric sparks were all over me and it hurt but I had to make a point. "She wouldn't have to be rebuilded like I was but you have to hurry with your decison or her body will rot. You have today to come up with your answer and you probably want to put some clothes on besides your boxers Hachimata-san", I said and left their house carring the seal. But I felt a presence that Maki-san was alive but how? My big, black wings popped out by curiousity and I ran to the cemetery finding Yurikami in a bad medical condition.
---Someone please continue---
~Kokoro
I sighed and rolled over in bed. I had managed to sleep for what seemed like forver, but my dreams were twisted and disfugured fragments of hate and anger.
"Hachimata if you keep feeding me your depression I'm going to crack," Ryuemi said in my head.
"Sssssssssorry," I choked out.
"You are terribe," Ryusemi said angrily, "You are terribe and horrible and I will take your memeories of that girl if this keeps up!"
Suddenly the door bell rang. I heard Kai get up to answer it. I merely rolled over again.
"Hachi....." Kai yelled unenergetically up to me, "Hachi, Kokoro-chan is here."
"Go away," I hissed.
"Hachimata!" Kokoro yelled up, "What if I could bring Maki back to life!?"
My head nearly exploded. I got out of bed hissing with anger.
"How dare you!" I hissed, "How dare you sssay that you can bring Maki back! Everyone knowssss that if you bring sssomeone back to life you can only bring the body back!"
"but.....with this.....I can bring Maki back....not just her body...." Kokoro said.
"A demon ssssssseal," I hissed.
"Ya and....if I awaken the demon inside....then Maki's spirit will come to life also......" Kokoro said quietly.
"No you lack underssstanding of thossse," I answered, "that demon ssseal you have isss emty of a demon ssspirit but......but it sssems......" I jumped off the railing and landed right in front of Kokoro, "It sseeemss as if that ssseal isss usssed for turning humansss into demonssss.....where in the world did you get thisss?"
