A.N. This is my newest story. Basically the summary states it all. I hope you enjoy this story! I got an idea for this story when I saw a muscular dystrophy commercial actually, and wondered 'how would Hiei fare in this kind of state?' Thus, the story was born.

Please review, or if you need to, give me some constructed criticism.

Disclaimer: I'm happy to admit I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho, because if I did, it would suck! -laughs-

Hiei swung the katana around, bringing down another demon. Kurama flipped behind his boyfriend and slashed the oncoming army down with his rose whip.

Yusuke fired a shot-gun blast, knocking back some more. Kuwabara raced along, chopping them down as he went. The group was exhausted…this battle was taking way too long.

"Where the hell did this guy get all these people to fight for him?" Yusuke demanded, recently they had been sent out on a case to deal with a rogue A-Class level demon who had a large army backing him up.

"It's easy to convince people to join your side." Hiei growled, killing another demon who was trying to attack his boyfriend.

Only just a few months ago, did Hiei and Kurama decide to take their relationship of 'best friends' up to the next level and start to date. It had been awkward and rocky at first, but then they grew into it, and now during the minor cases that Yusuke still had to deal with, they stuck to each other like glue to paper and fought to protect each other.

"Yes, especially demons that want to win control over the human world, this demon is giving them that chance. They will jump at his opportunities." Kurama said softly as he took a good look around and frowned. There were a lot more demons than they had anticipated.

"Well damn it! We need this freak to come out and fight us!" Yusuke said, panting after performing the spirit shotgun recently. It had taken a huge chunk out of his energy.

Kuwabara was swaying on his feet, "We ain't gonna make it at this rate Urameshi, by the time we get to fight him, we'll be too tired to deal with him." Kuwabara panted.

"Oh you don't have to worry about that." The demon said, appearing in front of them. "It wouldn't be fun killing you all when you have no energy. I understand you all are pretty powerful. But against me and my armies…well…" He chuckled, "You stand no chance!" He said.

They all gaped at his appearance, he was a demon that had to be over 9 feet tall, easily. He was well built, and glowing with power. There was no way he was just an A-class demon. Koenma had been misinformed. This guy was an S. No two ways about it. He had long flowing purple hair, with tattoos covering all over his body. He sported a giant club and looked rather menacing with large fangs hanging out of his mouth.

"You were hiding your true power!" Kurama gasped, amazed at how much power this demon radiated. It was even unnerving Hiei.

"That's right. I was. Those fools little spies were easy to spot. I'm no A-class. And you won't stop my plans for destroying the human world! Those scum bag humans have gotten away with enough! They've influenced us far too much!" He said, sliding his feet into position for a battle stance.

No one noticed Hiei had went missing until he appeared behind the demon and swung his sword, it struck his thick shoulder, barely piercing it.

"Huh?" Hiei looked stunned as the demon turned around, chuckling. "This is pathetic!" He knocked Hiei back, sending him flying.

Kurama growled deep in his throat and pulled out his rose whip. This demon had pushed him too far. First threatening the humans, ultimately his mother, and now injuring his love….with a flare of power, he turned into Youko.

The demon burst out laughing as they all went after him, this was pathetic! His size greatly outweighed them, and their weapons were barely piercing his skin! That fool Koenma had made a mistake sending them!

Kurama used his momentary distraction of laughter to shoot a seed into the only vulnerable place left. His eyes. It struck one eye and with a howl, the demon fell down as a plant burst out of his eye.

"What!" Kurama was stunned as the demon managed to live through the attack. "That should have pierced your brain! I don't understand…."

"FOOL!" He roared standing up, blood pouring down the left side of his face. "My brain is protected by a very thick armor of spirit energy. You think you're the only demon to think of piercing my skull? There is no way you'll get me that way! But you have injured me and for that you must pay."

The demon's eyes wandered until he noticed how Hiei and Kurama were standing, back to back with each other…a lovers stance.

"I'll make you pay by hurting the one you care about!" He lumbered forward, swinging back his club.

Hiei grabbed Kurama and flitted out of the way, setting Kurama down, Hiei flitted up and slammed his sword through the other demon's eye, smirking as the demon screamed and blood poured out of the ruined eye.

He fell to his knees, panting in agony as he tried to stop the blood flow. Hiei still hadn't pierced his brain, but now that he couldn't see, it would cause problems.

They continued to battle him, trying to weaken him, but their little cuts weren't doing much and they were about ready to drop from exhaustion at this rate. They need more energy! Yusuke fired one last spirit gun…and it only gave him a little bit of pain.

"Had enough?" The demon was obviously still ready to battle, then he sensed Hiei and Kurama standing away from each other, Hiei was exposed and the closest to him.

He smirked, "I don't need to see to do this!" He said, and with speed they didn't know he had, he slammed his club into Hiei's back.

Hiei threw his head back with a cry as blood spurted out his mouth and a sickening crack resounded through the area.

"Hiei!" Kurama cried out as his lover went down, his legs buckling underneath him. Hiei tried to get up, he pushed on his hands and tried to stand, but his legs were numb and they wouldn't work. With a cry of pain he went down again and looked up in almost pure terror. This demon had his life if he couldn't move.

Suddenly the demon wasn't standing there anymore. Youko was glowing with more energy than any of them had ever seen and a death plant was growing out of the ground rapidly, chasing the S-class demon away from the fire demon.

"You will pay for hurting my lover!" Kurama yelled and sent all his energy into the plant, the death plant grew to tremendous size and attacked the S-class, wrapping it's hungry mouth around the demon's head, the army ran away seeing their leader being struck down.

When the demon's screams faded out and the hungry plant was sated, Youko dropped to his knees, having put a lot of his life energy into that blow. He forced himself on his legs and wobbled over to his lover.

"Hiei!" He said fading into the red-head quickly.

"Kurama…" Hiei groaned in pain, trying not to move. "I can't feel my legs, my back is killing me…I can't move."

"Don't…worry…we'll get you home…" Kurama fell forward, out like a light. Hiei passed out a few seconds later because he couldn't handle the pain anymore.

Yusuke and Kuwabara looked at each other and nodded, they had to get their friends to Yukina and Genkai. Yusuke heaved Hiei up gently, already having an idea of what was wrong. Kuwabara scooped up the fox and they raced for the human world.

-Later-

Hiei groaned and opened his eyes, he realized he was laying on his back in a nice, soft bed, looking up at the ceiling in Genkai's temple.

"You're awake." A soft voice reached his ears and he glanced over. Kurama gave him a sad smile, "Don't sit up Hiei-koi, you'll get hurt." Kurama reached down and stroked his hair.

Hiei gave a small nod and then tried to move his legs, but felt nothing. "Kurama, why can't I feel my legs?" Hiei demanded, looking up.

Kurama winced and looked nervous, "Hiei…this is going to be hard to tell you. I don't even want to do it…" Kurama looked beyond upset as he tried to figure out how to phrase it.

"Damn it fox! What the hell is wrong with me?" Hiei demanded, trying to sit up and gasping in pain. His back started to ache again as he groaned and dropped back, he opened his eyes and glared.

"Tell me." His voice was laced with pain, but he sounded angry and pretty serious. Kurama took a deep breath and took Hiei's hand.

"Hiei, that demon damaged your spine. I mean really damaged it. You will never recover from that blow. Yukina tried her hardest heal you, but she could only do so much. You are what they call 'paralyzed' that means you cannot move a certain part of your body. Be it legs, arms or your entire body. From the waist down you are no longer able to move. You will be numb, and have no feeling. You will never be able to run, flit or walk again." Kurama whispered.

Hiei stared at him, not comprehending what the fox was trying to say. He glared, "That wasn't funny Kurama, what the hell is really wrong?" He growled.

"I'm not joking," Kurama let a tear fall down his face and he started to cry. He had never shed tears for anyone before, but to see his love so defenseless left his emotions in a wreck.

"That's a lie! You're lying! You have to be! I can walk! I'll show you!" Hiei pushed himself up, ignoring the pain, he tried to stand in vain, his body fell back down and he looked pissed. "No! I can do it…" He tried again and just fell down again.

"No…" Hiei said weakly, looking so utterly hopeless and lost. He reached down and touched his legs, he slammed his fist into them and felt nothing. "NO DAMN IT! WORK!" Hiei yelled, his voice giving a slight crack.

Kurama was watching sadly, not sure how to stop his lover. He knew Hiei would be so unsteady in the next few months, he would need everyone's support on this.

Hiei was weakly laying on the bed, his glare lessening into a look of suffering and pain. He had never been defenseless before in his life, even when he was born, he was able to hold his own and now…he couldn't even walk.

He felt movement beside him and he looked over, Kurama had crawled onto the bed with him sadly. "Oh Hiei…" Kurama took the fire demon in his arms.

"I'm not going to be weak Kurama! This is weakness!" Hiei couldn't even yell anymore, his voice was sad as he buried himself in his boyfriends loving arms.

"You aren't weak. You aren't weak at all." Kurama whispered, "This isn't weakness Hiei, you're going to make it and be strong after this." Kurama buried his face in Hiei's hair, wanting to be there for his lover, but it was difficult, this took a toll on Kurama as well.

"This is weak…" Hiei didn't cry, he couldn't, he wouldn't. This wasn't something he would cry about. He had to be strong, there had to be a way to recover from this.

Kurama sighed softly after a while when he heard Hiei's stomach growl with his own. "Come on Hiei, lets go get you something to eat." Kurama knew he would have to drop out of college, there was no way he could let Hiei stay at home by himself like this.

Kurama scooped Hiei up and then Hiei fought, "No!" He cried and struggled to get out of Kurama's arms. "I don't want to see them! Don't make me see them!" Hiei didn't want them to see him so vulnerable.

Kurama gave a small nod and then set Hiei down. "I'll go fetch us something to eat, you try to relax." Kurama went out into the kitchen.

The others looked up when he came out, he still had tear stains on his face as he walked over to the fridge. "Hiei is okay." Kurama murmured and fixed a couple of plates.

"Kurama, I have something else to tell you…" Yukina approached him, shyly.

"This can wait." Kurama growled to her, and then shook his head when she jumped in surprise. "I'm so sorry Yukina, please…at least let me get Hiei fed and cleaned up and asleep before you tell me. I don't think he needs any more bad news tonight."

"But what I have to say isn't bad." She said softly, touching Kurama's arm. "In fact, it's very good news." She looked up.

Kurama looked at her, trying not to be too hopeful about Hiei being able to recover. That was most likely not the news at all, so he didn't get his hopes up.

"Hiei is…pregnant." She said softly, making Kurama drop the glass he had been grabbing to fill up with some juice for Hiei.

"He's….what!" Kurama whipped around and stared at her. She smiled, taking his reaction as good. "Pregnant, you're going to be a daddy." She smiled at him.

Kurama stood there staring at her. "Pregnant…paralyzed? Is the baby going to be okay!" Kurama looked worried. "What about when Hiei got struck! Did it hurt it? How did he get pregnant!" Kurama put his hands on her shoulders and gently shook her.

She looked a little worried. "Maybe I should wait to explain this all in front of him. That way I don't have to answer the same questions." She said.

"Fine." Kurama got another glass and filled it then carried the tray to the bedroom, telling Yukina to follow. Kurama set the tray in front of the fire demon, who looked upset when he saw Yukina.

"What?" Hiei said when she looked at him.

"I'm not sure how to tell you this Hiei," Yukina said softly, "But I guess I'll just say it. You're pregnant. You're going to be having Kurama's baby." She said.

Hiei stared at her, "WHAT!" He roared, his energy flaring dangerously. Kurama even looked scared as Hiei yelled again, "HOW THE HELL CAN I BE PREGNANT?"
