Washio: OH MY GOSH! SOMEBODY REVIEWED! I feel EXTREMELY good right now, this just brightens my day. So, nana of the dark, I am giving you all the ice cream, cake, cookies, etc etc that you ever want in sincere thanks for being my first reviewer. Well, enough of that. I must also tell you all that I suck at making chapter names! Just thought that you all should know. Thanks to anyone and everyone else who reviews this and upcoming chapters. Yusuke, disclaimer please.

Yusuke: Washio owns nothing in or related to Yu Yu Hakusho

TV series, nothing but her undying love for it. She also doesn't own the song 'Little Wing'.

Washio: nice job. Enjoy the new chapter, and remember to review

Chapter One: We Meet Again

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Present

Hiei sat on the highest branch of a sakura tree that had yet to bloom. It was somewhere in the middle of autumn, but that didn't stop said demon from wearing only a black pants and his boots. His shirt was lost sometime ago during his training session. He was breathing heavily and had his eyes closed. Beads of sweat rolled down from his face to his chiseled chest. A slight breeze rustled the leaves every now and then. It was so serene…for only a moment.

"HIIIIIIIIIEEEEEIIIIII!!!!!!!!! WHHERRREE ARREE YOOUUUUU???"

Like I said, only for a moment.

"Yusuke is a damn idiot" Hiei muttered under his breath.

Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama and Botan all entered the once deserted park and all congregated by the base of the sakura tree Hiei was in. Yusuke looked up and gave a stunning smile to the now scowling fire youkai. Hiei turned his head away, trying desperately to block them out, especially when he realized that they did not come to talk about a mission. He heard Kuwabara talk about going to some love couples thing. He had no idea, he just didn't want to take part in what ever it was. Even Kurama was trying to convince him to accompany them, just for kicks. Still he refused.

"Forget it, Shortie's as solid as a rock. There aren't any girls that'd want him anyways," Kuwabara commented while patting Kurama's shoulder. Yusuke then got a devious smile on his face.

"Yukina's coming too, Hiei" the detective said with a smirk

Needless to say, Hiei was down in a flash. With a scowl and a 'Hn', he calmly walked away saying he'd meet them later at Genkai's at about 7:00. After that he disappeared. Yusuke waited a good while before starting to burst out laughing with Kurama chuckling at his side.

"I thought that Yukina wasn't coming?" asked Botan

"Exactly! Hiei'll kill us later but at least he'll come," Yusuke said trying to justify his deed. Kurama shook his head and bid his friends farewell. The others eventually dispersed as well.

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Later: Outside The Singles Date Hook Up…Thing

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Hiei could have burnt the building down with his deadly, fiery, glare. Scrap that. He could have burnt down the building and the next three blocks with that glare. He was, to put it bluntly, mad as hell. The stupid detective tricked him to come to this…place. Apparently, this was a courtship meeting grounds for single humans and also some demons. Regardless, he had no interest in courtship, love, mates and all the baggage that comes with it. No thank you. Somehow, someway, they gang managed to get Hiei to come peacefully inside. (cough draggedHieiinside cough)

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Inside Courtship Meeting Grounds (according to Hiei)

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

It was a place that was candlelit and had soft piano music in the background. The walls were a red-orange colour and most of the furniture was black. Hiei was supposed to be finding the booth that had his number on it, No. 16. He saw a bubbly blonde sitting there, waving at him like she knew him. He rolled his eyes, and walked away to the furthest window he could find. After about 15 minutes, a hush fell over the room, not that Hiei was going to open his eyes for whatever it was. Soon, he felt Kurama's presence next to him.

"Enjoying yourself I see."

"Hn. Hardly."

"Well, maybe even you'll enjoy this next piece on the agenda"

No sooner than the words left the redhead's mouth, did a young girl in a deep purple dress with subtle sparkles on it, step out. Her hair was black and all the way down into her back, almost at her waist. Her eyes were closed, even as she stood before the mic stand. There was something about this girl, beside the fact that she had youkai dripping from her pores. Something…familiar. The musicians started up a tune. Then the girl then opened her eyes and revealed icy blue eyes, she parted her pink lips and began to sing:

Kitto ima no mama ja, nanimo nanimo ushinau mono mo nai
Kimi no inai kono sora no shita de, ikiru imi wo nee oshiete

(If I stay like this, I know nothing, nothing will be lost
Though I'm under this sky without you, teach me the meaning of life)

Kazoe kirenu yasashisa toka, wasurerarenai kotoba toka
Kowareta yume no naka de ima mo sagashitsuzukete

(I'm still searching for the countless kindnesses and unforgotten words
In the middle of a broken dream)

The song sounded familiar too, but Hiei couldn't quite put his finger on it. He had heard it somewhere before.

Aa kizu tsuite kizu tsuke atte, ai shi ubaiatta bokura
Hikari sae shiranu chiisana tsubasa wo mamoru koto ga dekita nara...

(Ah, hurting and being hurt, we loved and took
If I could have protected those small wings which knew no light...)

Mune ni himeta tooi kioku
Kesshite kesenai ayamachi wa, ieru koto nai

kizuato wo bokura ni nokoshita

(The distant memories lurk in my heart;
an unerasable mistake has left us with scars that will never heal)

This voice was familiar too. He had seen those blue eyes before as well, but where? Damn, for all the times for him to have memory loss.

Tatta hitokoto, ienai kotoba wo tsutaete ita nara
Motto ai seru mirai wo ikiru futari ga ita ka na?

(If I had told you that one word I couldn't say
Would we be living in a more loving future?)

Aa kizu tsuite kizu tsuke atte, ai shi ubaiatta bokura
Sorezore no basho e to, ima mukau

(Ah, hurting and being hurt, we loved and took
Now we each head towards our own places)

Where the hell did he known this girl from? Wait, girl…

Aa hi wa nobori akeyuku sora hirogaru yo
Mou mayowazu ni, tooku made yukou

(Ah, the sun rises, the dawn light spreading through the sky
I'll go far away, not hesitating anymore)

It couldn't be her. No way in hell. No way in Makai. No way in… ever.

Itsuka subete wo ai seru you ni inotte...

(I pray I'll be able to love everything someday...)


Hiei just stared at the young girl as she walked off the stage. His curiosity just wouldn't die. He didn't even realize that Kurama was calling after him. He just had to know. Before the girl could get too far, Hiei grabbed her arm. She turned around and looked at him. Blue eyes grew wide. The two were there for a while until Hiei finally braved to say " Hajime, is that you?"

The poor girls lips just trembled, as if afraid of what would come out of her mouth next would shatter everything in the world. Just one simple word. One word that would confirm everything and start all of the trouble to follow.

"Hiei?"

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Washio: awesome. I have completed another chapter. And this one wasn't too shabby either. The song the Hajime sang was Little Wing by Chieko Kawabe. It wasn't too confusing right? you guys could pick up were she was singing, where the English translations were and were Hiei's thought were right? Right? of course *smiles* I hope that you enjoyed this chapter.

Yusuke: hey you…not you…yeah YOU! REVIEW! Please *puppy eyes*
