Title: Misery of the Forbidden Child's Past
Chapter One

Warning: MIGHT contain spoilers. Yaoi. No lemons; there MIGHT be a lime.
AND THANK GOD IT ISN'T A MARY SUE!

Some things you need to know in advance: Hiei is over 500 years old. In this chapter, it says "100 years later." I figure he would look around 4 to 5 years old. Also, in all of my Hiei research, there were never details on what happened when he was being raised by the thieves. Therefore, everything that happened when being a slave of the thieves I made up. It is true, however, that he was tossed off the Koorime Island by Ruri, not his mother, Hina.
Begin Chapter
"Come back and kill me, child, for what I'm about to do to you is unforgivable..." Ruri whispered to the frightened infant. The baby was wrapped up tightly in cloth, a tear gem necklace encircling his neck.

He was falling rapidly...even as a baby, he knew he was going to die. This was it. Barely born into the world, yet his death would come so soon.

He hit the ground and felt bones shattering in his arms, bruises being formed on his back. He began to cry because of the pain. It was amazing that he wasn't even unconscious.

Several hours later, Hiei stopped crying. He hadn't yet fallen to sleep because of his tears that were shed. Many black gems surrounded his tiny body.

A skinny, green demon with a forked tongue and a short, plump, orange demon walked up to the sickly child.

"What is this?" The green demon wondered. The orange demon replied, "It's a BABY, dufus-brain." The green demon growled. "I KNOW THAT! But should we take it back to Master Koji?" It asked. The other demon replied, "Yes...he might find a use for it..."

The child was picked up roughly by the green demon and brought back to a village. They went into a hut where an extremely muscled demon was sitting on the ground, sorting out gold and jewels.

"What do you want?" He asked to two demons who were carrying the newborn. "We found this..." It held up Hiei. "Do you want it?"

Koji glanced up. "Give it to Yasashiku. Tell him I told him to raise it. Bring the kid back when he's ready for hard work."

The two demons nodded in understanding and brought the child to the one named Yasashiku.

-----100 Years Later-----

The toddler had been introduced to Koji before. Yasashiku had raised him to obey everything anyone tells him. Yasashiku had been extrememly cruel and often beat the child. It was time for the Forbidden Child to become an official slave of Koji's.

They were in Koji's hut. The Forbidden Child was standing in front of Koji. Koji told the battered toddler, "It takes to long for me to call you Forbidden Child, you worthless piece of garbage. From now on, you will be called Hiei."

Koji glared at Hiei. "If you do not promptly do everything I say, you will be beaten...don't expect any mercy, either, you pathetic little boy."

Koji turned. "Your daily tasks are to clean ever inch of my hut. You also will be my supply of tear gems. It really is amazing. We are the only ones with somebody to give us black tear gems. They are very valuable. Leave now." Hiei turned to go. "Oh wait...I have a task for you. You will cook for all of my men tonight. You better start now, and don't you DARE think of eating ANYTHING, got it?" Koji demanded.

Hiei finished cooking dinner. Luckily it was not his job to SERVE it...he was starving. Hopefully the meal was good enough for Koji...Yasashiku had taught him how to cook. Maybe if it was satisfactory, Koji would give him something to eat.

After the meal, Koji told Hiei, "You sleep outside." Hiei looked at the ground. "But...it is raining..." He commented, hoping that Koji wasn't so cruel as to make him sleep outside in the rain.

Koji glared. "I KNOW THAT." Hiei looked up at Koji in the eye. "But...it is cold!" He protested. Koji got angry.

"Don't EVER look ANYONE in the eye, and ALWAYS obey me! Got it?!" Koji yelled, picking Hiei up by the collar. He threw Hiei against the wall, and Hiei fell to the ground. He shakily got up, just to be punched by Koji in the stomach.

Hiei coughed up some blood. Koji's punches HURT like HECK. He stumbled outside and fell onto the ground. The rain poured over his injured body as he fell into a deep sleep.
