Kurama remained on top of the roof, switching his attention between the rose in his hand to the sleeping girl inside the building. 'Ruby.' That name was permanently burned into his brain. Along with the image of the girl.
"Who would have thought that such a powerful demon like Yoko could have fallen so hardly for such a strange girl? Raizen's daughter, none the less." He then noticed that the girl he had been thinking about had woken up again and was standing at the window. But instead of looking up, she looked down at the busy streets. Kurama's eyes were immediately glued onto her. Unfortunately, he couldn't stay there for long. Tonight was the night that he was supposed to go back to the Demon World to joing Yomi's army.
Inside the Building
Ruby already knew she was being watched, she had sensed it when she and her sister were talking about the dreams.
"As long as he doesn't attack, I'm not worried. But I recognize that kind of power emitting from him. What am I saying? I don't know him." She pulled over a chair that had been in the room over to the window. She sat down and continued to watch the busy streets. Couples began to emerge on the street, all holding each other's hands or wrapping there arms around each other.
"Yoko." She whispered to herself. "I wish you were right here with me. Holding me like you use to." She wrapped her arms around herself; pretending that it was Yoko holding her. She then chuckled to herself, on how silly it was to be doing this. She was Raizen's daughter, she could go off and find another man to be with.
"He wasn't the only demon out there that caught my eye,but he was the only one who stole my heart. That stupid thief."
Hiei was now wandering through the forest near Genkei's temple; being summoned back to the Demon World to join some kind of army that belonged to…what's his name. Mukuro, there we go.
Seeing a light up ahead, he knew he was getting closer to the temple. Getting that message from Mukuro had really put his plans on hold. He was originally planning on going to talk to Koenma about his past with Raizen's daughter, Crystal. Even after all those years have past, he still didn't know if she was really dead or if she was still alive. His mind would tell him to just forget about her and his children. But his heart just wouldn't let go of the pain of losing them. Losing his children to Raizen.
Flashback:
"Daddy, when's mommy going to come home?" Hiei looked down at the oldest of his first set of twins, Cammie. Cammie had a good mixture of both her mother and father in her. Her hair was the same as Hiei's, except of having white at the front of her head, it was in the back and it only decorated the ends of her hair. Her eyes were the bloody red, same as Hiei's; except when she got angry, they would turn the purple shade, like her mother. And she was about five years old.
"I don't know sweetie." He answered back truthfully. A sound of babbling and gruggling made him look back down at the two babies in his arms, the youngest set of twins: Julie and Tremble. 'I still wonder why she had us name our son, Tremble' He thought to himself. The twins in his arms were born just recently, about four months ago. He and Crystal waited five years until they decided to have children. It took a lot of begging from her but he finally gave in. Now he couldn't be happier. He had Cammie and her twin brother, Chaos. Chaos's eyes were a mixture of red and purple, they would spiral around in a circle when he felt fear and pain. His hair was just like his mother's, purple at the very top and black near the end.
Julie's hair had both white and purple highlights. The pupil of her eyes were purple and the color that surrounded the pupil were red. Truthfully, she looked like a very scary baby. But you couldn't help but get mezmerized by them.
Tremble's eyes were the opposite of Julie's, red in the center and purple all around. At first, Hiei had thought that Tremble had popped a blood vessel in his eye, Crystal had to explain and calm him down about it. It was just the way Tremble was born. His hair was all black, not a hint of purple or white.
"I want to go look for her. I want mommy." Hiei chuckled at her.
"You don't want to be with daddy anymore?" He tried to sound hurt and depressed, hoping that she would fall for it.
"Daddy, don't be sad. I love daddy." She hugged his leg. He would have patter her on the head, if his hands weren't so full.
"I love you too baby. Now, where's your brother?"
"He went out looking for mommy."
"Why didn't you tell me he was out?"
"You didn't ask." Hiei sighed to himself, now he had to go out and look for his son. "Do you think you're old enough now to watch over the babies?"
"No, but I'll still do it for you." He got up from wherever he was sitting and walked over to the two small beds. He gently placed both of the babies down, ignoring their cries and pleads to be lifted back up. "I'll be back soon." He placed a soft kiss on each of his children's heads and ran out.
He called out for his son "Chaos!" He searched the floor as he jumped from tree to tree. A few minutes into his search, he smelled a familiar scent of blood. "Chaos." He whispered. He followed the scent to a secluded part of the forest he and his family lived in. In a small patch of grass and dirt, he saw him. His young small son, laying motionless.
"No!" He jumped down to his son's side. He picked his son's small body up and held it against his own. Holding in the tears that threatened to fall. His hands felt the coldness that was already taken over the small form. They also felt the huge amount of blood that was slowly dripping out of the wounds to his son's chest. It looked like he had been stabbed countless times.
"D..d..dad?" His son's small eyes opened.
"Chaos, what happened here?"
"They attacked without warning…I couldn't sense them. Dad, I'm sorry. I..i..i couldn't find mom." With his last bit of strength, Chaos hugged his father. Three seconds later, he was dead. Hiei's breath was stuck in his throat, he couldn't believe that he had just lost his son.
"No, Chaos, don't go. Don't go. Don't go." He slowly began to fall into insanity, until he smelt the scent of his son's killer. He quickly memorized the scent. Gently, he picked up his son's body and smelled around for the familiar scent. His eyes widened.
"Not them too." He rushed to where the scent lead to…his home.
Running inside his house, he noticed how everything was thrown around, it was a complete mess. His eyes landed on the two small beds that belonged to his youngest twins, they were tipped over and covered in blood. He gripped onto his son's body tighter as he examined the beds quickly. His children weren't in there. So where were they?
He ran to another room, where one of the most horrific sites were. Cammie, holding onto one of the twins, laid against the wall. Her body was slightly shaking.
"Cammie." He went over to her, her stomach had been pierced with a sword. Probably the same one that hurt Chaos.
"Dad, I couldn't protect them. It hurts daddy. It really hurts." Hiei looked at the baby in her arms, it was Tremble. He noticed that he wasn't moving at all. Placing his son right next to him on the floor, he picked up Cammie. She was getting cold also, and Tremble was already dead. "Daddy, I love you." Were Cammie's last words before she closed her eyes and allowed her death to come.
"Where is he?" He growled. A small cry was heard outside the room. "I'll come back, I promise." He whisped to his dead children. Rushing to see where the crying was coming from, his thoughts raced around his head like crazy. Coming to a halt, he saw three figures in front of him, One was holding onto his baby girl. He couldn't see exactly what they were doing. His baby's cries soon were gone, signifying that…she was dead too.
The three figures laughed evilly, tossing the now dead baby aside. Hiei saw one of the figures had a bloody sword. 'My children.' He pulled out his own sword and charged full force at them. The three figures were caught off guard, which allowed Hiei to brutally murder two of them. The one with the sword was shaking, he backed up to a corner and was ready to shield himself from Hiei.
"Who are you?!" Hiei came closer to him. "Answer me!" He demanded. The man stayed quiet, still shaking with fear. "Who sent you?" Hiei grabbed onto the man's shirt and lifted him off the ground. "WHO?!"
"No one." The man answered back to him. "No one sent me, I came myself."
"Who do you work for?"
"Raizen's army." The man answered back. Hiei's growled, a man who belonged to an army that was runned by his love's father was the one who killed his children.
"Why?" Hiei gripped his sword, ready to end this man's miserable life.
"Simple. You have taken one of the heirs to Raizen's kingdom. You and those brats would have gotten in the way of greater things to come. If it weren't for you, Raizen would have given Crsytal to ME! SHE RIGHTFULLY BELONGS TO ME!"
"Brats? You dare call my children 'brats." Hiei placed the very tip of his sword right above the man's heart. Sain man remained still, not bothering to fight back.
"Yes, those brats. Once they were gone, I would have killed you. Crystal would come back to find that his children were killed and would also see her husband dead. She would think that it was you who did it. And come running back home to be comforted by me." Hearing enough, Hiei ran his sword through the man's heart slowly. The man screamed from the pain.
"You feel it? This is what my children felt when you killed them. They were innocent, still not knowing of the dangerous world out there. Too young to even know." Hiei pulled the sword out and tossed the man elsewhere. He left the man to die painfully.
"My baby." He walked over to his dead baby and gently picked her up. He walked back to the room to where his other children were. He lined them up in a row and began to examine the bodies. Chaos was stabbed, Cammie was also stabbed; but Julie and Tremble were chocked to death. The fingerprints on their necks showed it. For the very first time in a long while, Hiei cried. Never had he felt so much pain in his heart; not when he was banished and abandoned so many times, not when he got the Jagan eye. All of those pains failed in comparison to the pain of losing his beloved children.
For days he never left their side. For days, he waited for his love to come home. She never did. Hiei realized that once again, he was alone in the world. And once again, everything precious to him were being taken away.
End of Flashback
Hiei felt tears once again fall down his face, that painful memory would play over and over in his mind. Two years after his children's death, he had heard that his love had gone missing. Indicating that she didn't stay with her father.
Since then, Hiei has held a strong anger towards the king, Raizen. So he was more than happy to join what's his name….Mukuro's army. Only if it gave him a chance to go up against the man himself and get payback for what his men did to his family.
He wiped the tears away from his eyes when he was just a few feet away from his destination. He stopped behind a tree for a while and looked up towards the sky, his hand went up to his heart. 'Make the pain stop. Make it stop.'
Crystal had woken up in the middle of the night and noticed that her sister was too busy looking outside. She silently left the room and went back to hers. After closing the door, she leaned against it and slide down it. She too felt the same pain Hiei was feeling.
"Hiei, Chaos, Cammie, Julie, Tremble: my dear family who I love with all of my being. Gone. Taken. Murdered. Tortured. And where was I? also being tortured. My children, my love, I have felt the same pain of being killed. But this pain." She held her hand to her heart. "This rotten pain of losing you and not being able to see you is worse. Worse than feeling something sharp pierce your body. My children, I want to hold you and see your smilings faces once more. My love, I want to feel your lips against mine. I want to feel the warmth of your body agianst mine. Not in a dream, but in reality."
She stood from her sitting position and walked over to her bed. Slowly, she laid down on the bed and looked up at the ceiling. She tried to push the memories aside so that she could get a good night's rest. They weren't going to leave her alone though.
