About This Story
Konnichiwa minna! ^^. This story is going to be done by both Kawaii Kitsune-san and myself. We will take different POV's and tell what's happening from their eyes. I will be doing The Great (Though vertically challenged) Hiei-sama and Kawaii Kitsune-san will do Kurama. The setting of this story is after the series, as you'll see explained below. NOT AU. Well... I believe that's about it... Enjoy!

Dimly lit halls caught the sight of a slim shadow; a barely audible sound resonated through the narrow passage as nimble feet hit the earth rhythmically.
The candles that brightened the hall wavered as the figure turned a corner.
He stopped before a wooden doorway, reaching out to quickly dispel the offending doors, grunting, as they swung open.
He stepped into the room, which was even more ill lit than the halls. It looked like something one might get from horror movie, or an image out of a nightmare.
He didn't notice such things, making his way across the room with a passive, yet impatient, expression.
"Ah, I see you made it, Hiei." a female voice rang out.
"Hn. I was training. State your business." He was still in his training wear, one that consisted of black baggy pants and a white tank top. They were smudged with dirt and his face was cut.
"Did one of the servants get the better of you?" she inquired, surprised that he'd even gotten a scratch.
"No. I was improving my techniques." He scowled, making it known that he did not (and never would) lose to a lowly servant.
"Is that so?" She was taking her time, not really caring that his temper was rising.
"Why did you call me here?" he finally asked, eyes glinting as his fingers itched to unsheathe his katana. That smug look on her face told him she was up to something, and it made him uncomfortable.
"I'll tell you once you clean up." She smiled. He glared.
"Just tell me, Mukuro." He crossed his arms, almost getting the urge to tap his foot as he'd seen humans do.
"Go get dressed. Properly." she said again, ignoring his request.
"Just fucking tell—"
"I'm not going to tell you if you insult me. The sooner you get dressed, the sooner you find out." She said in a tone that ended the conversation.
"Bitch..." He muttered, stalking out of the room. Yelling was heard behind him.

Hiei stood before his mirror, a disgruntled expression gracing his face.
He glared at his reflection.
Even he could tell he'd gotten taller; he was able to see higher and the servants seemed shorter than they'd first been.
His outfit had changed from his Reikai days. It still consisted of black, of course, but a little fancier. He wore a sleeveless shirt with a metallic red feather hemmed over the heart. The feather was crossed by two silver streaks. His pants had a metallic black dragon embroidered near the cuff, but otherwise the same. His belts, which he still had four of, had designs on them, all of which were silver. They varied from a dragon to a series to mesmerizing and specifically placed kanji.
Though these changes were there, most who saw him did not notice. This was because he wore his black cloak over it all, keeping his trademark look from his Tantei days. (A/n: So he looks the same, just a bit
taller, unless he takes his cloak off. When he takes his cloak off... *wink*)
His hair was maintained and still short. It was easier to battle without having to worry about hair whip.
He pulled the cloak on, more contented with the plain look. Of course, he wore the rest because he knew Mukuro would not consider the simple black cloak 'proper'.
He stared at his reflection a bit more, the sight of it drawing back memories. Drawing forward questions.
I wonder if they have changed...?
He shook his head, stepping away from the mirror.
~*~
"You call that formal?" Mukuro asked the moment he stepped into the room, a bored look in her eyes.
"Hn." He threw the cloak off and crossed his arms.
"Good." She looked at his outfit in a satisfied way.
"Hn. Now why the hell did I have to go get changed?"
She smirked, reaching behind her to retrieve a white envelope. "I received a letter."
"No shit..." He muttered under his breath, earning a glare from the woman.
She furrowed a brow slightly but continued. "And it is from Koenma."
"Hn."
"His 25,000 birthday is today and I have been invited."
"Hn."
"And so have you."
"Hn—WHAT?!"
"Well, you already had a separate invitation—"
"Why was I not informed of this?"
"Well, the invitations came weeks ago, but I knew that if I told you earlier, you would have fled like a demon running for his life."
"Like hell." He glared at her.
"Well, since you were already invited and I don't like parties—"
"Who the hell said I did?"
"You're obligated to go as my heir if I request for you. Besides, you'll have to learn about these things sooner or later."
"I'm just a excuse for you not to go," He growled.
"So? They don't care as long as someone shows up."
"You set me up."
"Yes, I did."
"You..." He glared at her.
"Put your cloak on and be on your way, it starts in a hour.
"And who says I'm going?"
"I do. And if you don't, you will be banned from my lands."
"Doesn't sound too bad..." He grumbled.
"And I'll tell that dear little sister of yours your secret."
"...You're black mailing me."
"You could say that."
They stared at each other for a few minutes. One glaring, the other holding the glare with a thoroughly amused expression.
"FINE! I'll fucking go!" He threw his cloak back on, "Where is it?"
"Reikai." She called after him, answered by a slamming door and a pissed of 'HN!'.

End Chapter One.
Well... how else would you get Hiei to a social gathering?
And no. This story is NOT Mukuro/Hiei. It's *cough cough*... well... it's yaoi. Knowing me, you should be able to figure it out.
Next chapter will be written by Kawaii Kitsune-senpai ^^. (From Kurama's POV)
