Mari: Well, I wrote this free-verse poem because Hiei's past really
interested me. So I decided to write about it. It's basically what happed
in Hiei's past. I hope you like it.

Life of the Forbidden Child

I was born of ice, and embraced by fire.
Because of that, I was abandoned
And by the hands of my mothers best friend, Ruri
I was thrown out of my home,
Because of what I am
The Forbidden Child

I was given one thing before I was dropped
The tear gem of my mother, Hina
I keep it with me always

A gang of thieves found me
They found me interesting because of my gem
They tried to take it from me
But I wouldn't let them
I was mine, no one else's
Mine

The thieves let me stay with them
And I learned things from them
But in time, I grew stronger then them all
They feared me
And they too abandoned me
I was alone once again

As I grew, so did my skills
Soon many feared me
But I met one who wasn't scared of me
And I fought him, near the edge of the cliff
And he cut the string that held my tear gem
And it fell
Over the cliff

I couldn't go after it
If I did
The demon I was fighting would come after me and kill me
So I quickly killed him
But I couldn't find the tear gem
The only thing from home that I had

I went back to my home
Where I was claimed forbidden
People here fear me
Because of what I am

There was only one reason I came here
To see my mother

But I never found her
All I found was a grave
A grave with her name in it
Standing in front of it,
Was Ruri

She didn't recognize me
I asked her what happened to the person in the grave
She answered that Hina had committed suicide
After she had a half daughter, named Yukina
And I knew why my mother killed herself
Because of me

Ruri asked my why I was here
I said "No reason" and walked away
Then she recognized me
As the Forbidden Child
She asked me if I was the Forbidden Child
I didn't answer her and just walked away
She knew it was me, and she chased after me
But she didn't get far
I disappeared before she could catch me
And I left the place I was called Forbidden

Now I have two things to find
My tear gem
And my sister
But the only way
Is to get a Jagan Eye

But that won't be easy
The surgery to get the Jagan is extremely painful
That some people say that is was so painful
People have ripped out there own eyes
But forget that
This is for my sister and my tear gem
I have to find them

As I lay on the table
Waiting to get the Jagan
There is a doctor standing above me
He tells me that he has earplugs
So he won't hear my screams of pain
But I won't scream
And when the machine came down
And drilled into my very skull
I did scream

When I awoke
I had bandages on my head
I resolved to leave
So I left
The doctor tried to stop me
And get me to pay for the surgery
But I still walked away
To find the two things important to me

That is what I want to do
Find my gem and my sister
And if I found my sister
I won't tell her who I am
If I do, she will have the burden of me as family
Me, a felon who has done many crimes
She might take my mothers path
If she found out who I am

So I won't tell her
I will watch her from a distance
And keep her safe
But I will not tell her
For she is the only one I truly care for
My sister...Yukina
