A Gift From The Heavens Chapter 1: Dancing on into the night, a yu yu hakusho fanfic

Me: This is my first one-shot so, if it sucks, tell me.

Hiei: Onna, why am I here? (pissed off)

Me: You will address me as Alternative Angel, idgit.

Hiei: (eyes narrow) I will call you what ever I deem your proper title.

Me: That is my proper title, and if you don't use it, you will find yourself in a yaoi fic with Kuwabara.

Hiei: Yes, Alternative Angel.

Me: (smirk) Smart hybrid.

(Kagome appears in the room)

Kagome: Hello, Alternative Angel. Hi, Hiei.

Me: See, that's the perfect example of how you should act. I won't hold it against you because it's part of your charm, but I suggest you control yourself.

Kagome: He's just trying to act like Sesshomaru.

Hiei: Hn.

Me: (sighs) I have to like the infuriating ones. As to your question earlier, Hiei, it's to do the disclaimer.

Hiei: Very well. Alternative Angel does not own the series Inuyasha or Yu Yu Hakusho. She, also, does not own the song Into the Night by Santana.

Kagome: If she did, don't you think that the two anime/mangas would have actually crossed over.

Me: I dedicate this to madmiko, who asked me to write a Kag/Hiei fic and is one of the best authors of that pairing.

"Speaking"

Lyrics

-/-/-

He was going to kill that fox. On second thought, not just the fox, but also, the fool and the detective.

How dare they bring him here. He had half a mind to slaughter every ningen and youkai in here, even if it meant getting arrested again.

His acquaintances (Hell would freeze over before he called them friends) had dragged him to a famous dancing club. How revolting.

Kurama's excuse was for him to find a companion, or, at least a good screw. After all, even A-Class youkai have needs.

Hiei's response had been glaring at him him with pure hatred as images of him brutally maiming them all flickered in his eyes for everyone to see. In that moment, he looked like the devil himself.

He'd already been asked trice to dance with a few ignorant ningens. Let's just say that Hiei was not a happy fire apparition.

"Hey, sexy. Wanna dance?"

Hiei's eye twitched. Okay, females he could tolerate, they were made to please males, they couldn't help their nature. However, it wasn't a woman who had spoken.

Kurama chose, at this moment, to lead Hiei away from the man before Hiei cracked.

"You should relax, we came here to unwind and get away from our duties," Kurama said tiredly.

Hiei glared at him with loathing, "I have no desire to touch any of this ningen filth, and I doubt that any self-respecting youkai would give me enough of their attention to do anything besides try to kill me."

Kurama sighed at the fire apparition's usual response. Honestly, Hiei needed to rid himself of this "I'm the spawn of Satan" act. Although, with his abilities, personality, looks, and past, it does seem like a possibility for it to be true.

Yusuke and Kuwabara shook their heads and left to dance again. It shocked the group that quite a few ladies actually found Kuwabara attractive.

Hiei glared his famous "Even think about doing it and I'll make sure you burn in the lowest level of Hell" death glare as yet another woman started towards him. He would not, repeat would not, be able to take much more of this.

In his opinion, they were all whores, ningen and youkai alike. They weren't even close to angels, as some of them had the gall to dress as.

He decided to go to the outdoor section of the club. When he got there, he instantly liked it better. Do to some unknown spell, the city lights and pollution did not come near here, so the moon and stars shined brightly, like they had over two hundred years ago. There weren't as many people out here as there were inside so he chose to stay.

After a another half hour of suffering from brain-dead sluts asking him to dance, he was about to destroy them all and leave.

Then, she appeared.

Hiei swore that from that moment on he would believe in God, for a true angel had stepped outside. She had wavy, waist-length hair as black as the midnight sky. Her skin was barely tanned, still giving off a pale glow, as if she spent a good amount of time out in the sun but her skin never truly absorbed the light. Her figure would make the most beautiful demoness envious. She had voluptuous hips, a small, but not too small, waist, large breasts, but not overly so, and legs that seemed to go on forever. However, it was her eyes that proved her to be a pure creature of Heaven. Her eyes were like sapphires that were coveted by every thief in Ningenkai, Makai, and Reikai. They were the embodiment of the night sky with their deep blue coloring with flecks of silver that could have been mistaken for stars. Those eyes held an innocence that was so rare in this age. Her eyes held wisdom and kindness, eyes that had seen many terrible things yet never hardened, never lost that light.

Everyone stared at her in wonder. For a moment, just a moment, no impure thought passed through any of their heads. All they could think was that she was truly a pure soul.

However, that spell was broken as a man began to force himself on a particularly young girl, who shouldn't have been in this place at all.

They could all hear her cries, but the man gave off a feeling of power, for he was a powerful toriyoukai, not a human man. Even the ningen knew that he was not one to be trifled with.

The next thing anyone knew, the angel, whom they had forgotten about because of the poor girls cries, was staring youkai down.

"Leave. Her. Alone."

Hiei inhaled sharply as he heard her voice. It held great power, ancient power that many had forgotten about.

The dishonorable youkai glanced at her then the girl and threw the girl away, who then hurried for exit.

"Now, you can entertain me," he purred in an oily voice, with a smirk on his face.

The hiyoukai(sp?) felt his blood boil. How dare he think that he was worthy of this Heaven-sent being.

Just as Hiei was about to incinerate the lowly being, the woman narrowed her eyes at the youkai and her aura flared. It showed the power her voice had given a glimpse of. It was holy, she was a miko! A powerful one at that.

"I don't think so," she stated in a hard voice.

"Woman, I wasn't giving you an option," he said as he pulled her to him.

Everyone feared for their lives after that, for they felt her anger. She. Was. Pissed.

She glared at the tori, "Go fuck yourself." With that, she kicked him in the crotch with pure energy surrounding her foot.

He let her go with a scream, and fell to the floor in pain. Hiei snickered, that onna was a fiery one.

Security picked up the toriyoukai, and threw him out. In a few moments, the club-goers went back to their business while keeping an eye on newly dubbed guardian angel.

Hiei couldn't stop staring at her. He'd just noticed what she was wearing, a knee-length white dress. It wasn't dressy but it wasn't plain either. The long sleeves hung off her shoulders and widened as they went further down her arms. The sleeves came just short of her finger-tips. The dress itself was trimmed in black and silver and clung lightly to her form.

She didn't seem to be in the mood for dancing, all she did was watch everyone enjoy themselves.

Suddenly, a new song came on. That was when she started to dance, and oh, how she danced.

Her hips swung to the music as her arms moved in a strangely beautiful and fascinating choreography.

Hiei felt . . . different, as if this angel had soothed battling elements in him. Like she had rid him of the bitterness and hatred in his heart.

(Normal)
Like a gift from the heavens
It was easy to tell
It was love from above that could save me from hell
She had fire in her soul
It was easy to see
How the devil himself could be pulled out of me
There were drums in the air as she started to dance
Every soul in the room keeping time with their hands and we sang

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angles sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

It was as if everyone was dong exactly as the song said, they were keeping time with their hands.

He decided he liked this song, even though it was American. Hiei got closer to where she was dancing, as if being nearer would somehow increase this feeling he was getting from her.

Then, she turned and stared at him in wonder, her gaze caught in his. After what felt like an eternity, she stepped towards him.

When she was only an arms length away, she spoke in a completely different voice than the one she used earlier, this one slightly unsure and gentle, like she was afraid of being hurt, yet just as beautiful.

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angles sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

"Would you like to join me?" she asked, her voice a bit breathy.

He looked at her in wonder but didn't let it show, "Only if I may know your name."

She smiled at him in gratitude, like he gave her something precious, "It's Kagome."

Like the children's game. It fit that childish innocence she held, even after that display earlier.

Hiei could see from just her eyes that she absolutely adored children. He couldn't help but admire that, for most women her age wanted nothing to do with children.

"Hn, mine is Hiei," he said, somehow knowing that she would want to know it.

What happened next shocked the hell out Hiei. She smiled so brightly, her whole face lit up.

She then grabbed his hand, and led him back to where she was dancing. As soon as she stopped, they began to dance in a choreography that was all their own.

(Normal)
Like a piece to the puzzle that falls into place
You could tell how we felt from the look on our faces
We was spinning in circles with the moon in our eyes
No room left to move in between you and I
We forgot where we were and we lost track of time
And we sang to the wind as we danced through the night

Hiei didn't care that his group had come outside and saw him. He did love it when their jaws dropped when they saw what he was doing and who he was doing it with.

"How the hell did that happen!?" Yusuke exclaimed.

Kurama shook his head, "I don't know and I doubt he'll be willing to share that piece of information."

Kuwabara just shrugged, "Whatever, at least we know shorty will be in a good mood."

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angels sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

The fire apparition was content to just dance, but apparently, the angel, no, Kagome was a curious one.

"If you don't mind me asking, why is someone like you in place like this? You don't strike me as the type to be fond of crowds," she asked as she danced with him.

He smirked at that, he did give off the impression that he didn't enjoy anyone's company.

"My acquaintances brought me here thinking that I needed to relax and find someone to . . . help me relax," he shook his head in disgust.

She laughed at that, "So, you didn't come of your own free will either?"

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angels sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

Hiei looked at her with a question in his eyes, which she correctly interpreted.

"My friends think that I need to find myself a man. Their afraid I'll never find the "right guy" and be single forever," she sighed.

(Guitar playing)

"From what I can see, you don't seem to have trouble finding others who think you're attractive, so why are they concerned?" he knew he could just look into her mind for the answers, but for some reason, he wanted her to tell him, confide in him, to share every single aspect of her life with him, willingly.

Kagome sighed again, "You want the whole list? First, my heart was broken by a guy who kept leaving me for his ex. Second, so many guys tried to get with me because of what I could do and not who I am. Third, I've been kidnapped, I don't know how many times, by men. Fourth, almost all of the guys so far have wanted me for nothing more than a screw. Finally, I haven't really felt anything for any of them since that one guy."

Hiei blinked. She was definitely a pure woman. So many women couldn't care less about any of those things, yet she did.

"Anyway, what kind of youkai are you? I know I could find out if I wanted to, but I want you to tell me," she said, startling him out of his thoughts.

"I'm the forbidden one, I have a Koorime for a mother and a hiyoukai for a father," he said, scowling, sure that she would push away in disgust.

She surprised him yet again by cocking her head to the side in a confused manner, which, even he had to admit, was damn cute.

"How can someone be forbidden? Just because your parents were opposing elements, doesn't mean you shouldn't exist," she pressed closer to him as she said that. "A life is a life, and no life should not exist."

Kagome just kept surprising Hiei.

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angels sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

The song was coming to an end, but Hiei didn't want this to end. He wanted time to freeze so that they could stay like this forever, pressed together in a tight embrace as they danced on into the night, like in the song.

"Hiei, can we go to some place together?" she mumbled.

He looked at her in surprise, which she blushed at.

"Well, I like you and want to talk to you more, but not here. I live in a shrine not far from here that's surrounded by trees and overlooks the city. I thought maybe we could go there because I'd like to get know you better," she buried her face in his chest in embarrassment, but he wasn't complaining.

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angels sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

He thought it over, "Onna, why do you want to know more about me?"

She looked up, "You're different from other guys, and I have a feeling that you're not like this to everyone so that tells me a lot. Plus, I think you'd like someone to talk to. Not to mention the fact that you seem to have had a hard past and I'd like to know about it . . . and you." She then sharpened her gaze, "And my name is Kagome, not onna."

Hiei chuckled under his breath then pulled her into a kiss. At first, she didn't respond, but soon, she returned it with eagerness. He licked her bottom lip, causing her to gasp. He took advantage of it and explored her cavern, tasting everything she had to offer.

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And the voices rang like the angels sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

She shyly tapped his wet appendage with her own, provoking him to do battle against her hers, which he won.

They parted for air.

"Which way to your home," he smirked at her breathlessness, "Kagome?"

She glared at him, but grabbed his hand in hers and dragged him to the exit and towards her home. There they danced on into the night.

(Chorus)
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night

Me: What'd ya think?

Kurama: Where are Hiei and Kagome?

Me: - -; Read the last part of the fic.

Kurama: (Reads it) Oh.

Youko: Red, you're a baka.

Me: Hey, I don't pay you to chat, do your jobs.

Youko: You don't pay us at all!

Me: Well, I would if you did your jobs.

Kurama: Please review.

Youko: Or else, she'll take out her trusty chibi-style hammer and come after you in your sleep.

Me: Flames are welcome as long as they aren't about how Hiei and Kagome can't be together.
