The demons followed a faint trail and scent. They follow seeking revenge. They are confident that the enemy will be found by nightfall.
He ran for his life, searching for a place to hide. Though he was fast, and very strong, he could not fight an army of demons. Though most of the demons had been weak as he'd looked upon them earlier, when he had run across the gem. This gem was a dark blue, almost black rare stone, he had heard of it in his younger years but had never seen one with his own eyes.
They followed, though swamps, through rivers, over hills and any other obstacle they might come across. They followed, getting closer, whether it was a warm day, or snowing, whether it be the worst snowstorm they'd ever been through, they followed. Never slept, always were getting closer.
His mistake, taking what they loved most. The gem. His greed got him here where he lie, unconcious, from a fall down a rocky hill. Cuts and bruises, made him easier to follow.
His scent was stonger now. They were close to him, they could sense his life energy, weak and unconfident. The demons grew restless, and moved faster, inlust of thier precious gem.
His eyes grew wide, wider then most would think possible. The demons had woken him, he sat, nailed to a rock with arrows, and from the look of these arrows, they had been used to kill many times before. He winced as a demon shoved another arrow, this time throiugh his spleen. He begged, pitifully. Began to cry and bubbled out his last words. His eyes grew wide and sirious with utter dread. "I LOST IT! OH GOD I LOST IT!"
His life ended here, forever nailed to a rock as his lifeless body lay pitifully, rotting. Without a care in the world, they left, in search of thier precious gem.
CHAPTER ONE
Hiei gazed at the Makai River, remembering. It was always so vivid in his mind, because it was really the only time in his entire life that he'd truly been afraid for his life...
Suddenly taken from his gloating shame, Botan practiacally knocked him out of his tree. He landed on his feet after loosing his battle against gravity and glared at the ore wielding menace that had recently stolen his peace.
"What is it now?!?! Does that child need another favor or did you just come here to invade my privacy and attack without warning?......ANSWER ME!!!" Hiei screamed at the childish woman who was now hiding behind Hiei's tree.
"Um....well......Koenma...um..he wants..to...um....see you.." Botan wimpered through a crackling voice obviously filled with fear and astonishment.
"Hn..fine."
As Hiei walked into the almighty pacifier lord of the spirit world's office, he noticed the rest of the people he'd associated himself with in the pasts, accept for one. Kewabara had obviously not been needed was everyones thought. Koenma sat at his desk in a slouched, upset way. He kept silent for a while untill Yusuke demanded to know why once again, in the middle of his date with Keiko he'd been dragged away and left her stood up.
"We, believe that Kewabara's been killed..."
Yusuke stared at him dumbly, and asked if he could be brought back, demanded that he be brought back. Kurama sat in silence contemplating, wondering if Kewabara's sould was in spirit world, or even existed for that matter. Because surely Koenma would've let his soul say farewell. Hiei always thought that he'd be happy to hear of that sasquatches death, but instead found himself full of pity, confusion, and anger for the boys lost life.
"Have you already sent his soul to its final resting place?" asked Kurama in a very solemn whisper.
"The thing is...we never did recieve his soul, it's as though it doesnt exist any longer..." replied Koenma, very dissapointed, and sounding defeated.
"IT HAS TO! YOU CAN'T GIVE UP ON HIM! HOW DO YOU KNOW HE'S DEAD? DID YOU FIND HIS BODY?" Yelled Yusuke in a distraught mannar.
"Well we have located his body, and determined that there is no appearant life left inside of him, as well as discovering that his soul is nowhere to be found...wait...this all seems very familiar...There's been a case like this before, and in fact Kewabara's body was found inside of the very building that a woman named Rea's soul dissapeared ten years ago!" Koenma replied in complete astonishment.
"WHAT?" Everyone was a bit taken back by Hiei's sudden concern. "WHAT WAS HE DOING THERE?!?!"
"Hiei calm down, it's obvious that you know who this woman is, but the matter at hand here has very little to do with this particular woman, it's most likley a demon with a strange power." Replies Kurama in a desperate act of trying to stop Hiei from dissapearing and going to this location on his own when it has already been established that it is a very dangerous place.
"IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH IT KURAMA! REA'S TOMB IS THE MOST SACRED PLACE IN ALL OF SPIRIT WORLD!...and anyone who enters without a heart that has the soul intention of awakening Rea falls under the very spell that she couldnt ward off. Kewabara's not dead yet, but he will remain her slave untill she is freed."
