Yo's everyone! I'm so excited. I GOT REVIEWS!! Thanks to:

Kurai-Gaara-Yea that is the kind of thing I'm going for. I love it when people fall in love with their alter egos.

ZanzaGirl- Thanks!

Kyrie Twilight- I have tried to make it longer, though I failed. But, the point of view changes less often. So, hopefully it's better. I'll try to have another installment out soon to make up for the shortness.

I danced when I got these reviews. Danced. Me+dancechaos. But I do love reviews.

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or its characters.

My lack of humorous disclaimers is killing me.

Out of Light, Dark is Born, Out of Darkness, Light

Sada had lost touch with the rest of the world. All that there was was her shield. The barrier was essential to survival. Her thoughts were only the barrier. It was her.

That was when 'she' broke.

Her thoughts were still murky as the monster, seeing his chance, aimed his claws at her throat.

He was dead where he stood. Blood splattered lightly across her face as it gushed from the monster's headless neck. She froze.

Standing in front of her, flicking blood off his katana, was a guy with black hair with a white streak in the middle. He would be short by most people's standards, but Sada was only 4' 5". He was mostly covered with a black cloak. When he looked at her, she gasped slightly at his piercing, crimson eyes. Then an intense pain in her jaw stopped any further study of the mysterious guy.

Hiei had watched to see how long she could hold up her shield. The weak shoujo couldn't hold it for more than a few seconds. But, he couldn't let her die. The toddler would blame him. So, he killed the demon and was about to knock the little girl out when he noticed her expression.

Her face froze in a pitiful expression of shock, fear, sadness, and pain as she lay on the ground. She shook slightly. Her breath came slowly and cautiously. Her hand moved slowly to her jaw, caressing it. He realized her jaw was broken as she winced from the touch and put her hand down. A tear rolled down her cheek, but her face still didn't change its pained expression. She didn't make a sound. Her tears just flowed.

It was odd. He didn't want to tell her to stop. Of course, he had no desire to comfort this weak girl. He wasn't that weak. But, this indecision stopped him from doing anything. This made him angry, the fact that this little girl was having an effect on him. So, he took his frustration out on her.

"Get up, shoujo." he said icily.

She didn't respond.

He grabbed her upper arm and yanked her to her feet. She took two steps forward, the briars tearing at her bare legs and fell forward on her knees. She looked up at him with pleading eyes.

'What does she want?' he wondered.

'Please, help me'

The thoughts were there, as if they were his own. He wanted to ignore them, but they'd struck a cord with him. What kind of help did the girl want?

His question would remain unanswered as the rest of the reikai tantei rushed in. By now the shoujo's jaw was swelling.

"What'd you do to her Hiei? She looks awful." Yusuke said.

He saw the terrified face on the girl. He felt sorry for her. 'She must be scared of us. After all, Hiei obviously destroyed that demon right in front of her.' He thought.

Then she began to get up.

'I have to thank these nice people for saving me,' Sada thought as she struggled to rise, 'I owe them my life.'

So, grabbing onto the branch of a nearby tree for support, Sada stood.

"Arigatou gonzaimasu." She flinched, "You are all very shinsetsu. I'm grate-" She fell forward, exhausted and in pain from talking.

Kurama, Kuwabara, and Yusuke expected Hiei to catch her.

He didn't.

She hit the ground.

Hehe.. well, Hiei's a butthole. Ah, just kidding. He's just too cool.

Anyways, here are the words I used and…. PLEASE REVIEW!! I have cookies for the reviewers!

Shoujo- Little Girl

Arigatou Gonzaimasu- Thank You Very Much

Shinsetsu- Kind
