Akari: I got a review!
Hiei: So?
Jusono: Hiei, could you for once just shut up?
Hiei: Why you little-
Akari: Both of you shut up before I kick you out of my house and take back all of the sweet snow I gave you!
Hiei and Jusono: …
Akari: I thought so. So, how have all of you beautiful people been? I have been doing great. (I just had a lot of sugar, so that's why I'm hyper.)
Hiei: I'm leaving. I can't stand your hyperness. (Pick up carton of ice cream and heads for the door.
Akari: Hold it mister. Where so you think you're going with all of that ice cream? Aren't you forgetting something?
Hiei: (Tenses up) You cannot make me say it.
Jusono: Fine, then give back the sweet snow. (Holds out hand expectantly)
Hiei: (sigh) Akari doesn't own Yu Yu Hakusho. There, you happy now?
Akari: (claps hands and jumps up and down) Very! You're so cute when you pout like that.
Hiei: I-AM-NOT-CUTE! (stomps out the door.
Akari: Awwwww, we chased him away…
Akari: This chapter is a bit… weird. Please go with it. Thanks!
And one more thing, thanks Kris! You're my first reviewer!
(Hiei's P.O.V.)
I awoke to a great pain that erupted form my right arm. I opened my eyes and saw Carrie standing above me; she looked really scared. She didn't seem to notice that I had woken. I turned my attention to my broken arm. I was mildly shocked to see what had happened. I then knew why Carrie looked so scared. She panicked.
"Oh no. Hiei please don't move. Trust me, I know what I'm doing," Carrie said in an extremely worried voice.
"Yeah, right. If you know what you are doing than why are you panicking?" I asked her in a calm voice. I needed her to calm down if I was going to live through this. She looked scared to death.
"Calm down Carrie. We can do this, but you need to calm down," I said firmly. "Take a deep breath. That's it, now breath out." She did this for a few minutes and she finally looked like she was back in control.
"Okay, time for confessions," she began. "I have no clue what to do." Carrie began to look anxious again.
"Don't worry, I do; but I need you to stay absolutely calm. One mistake could prove deadly."
"Okay. But no pressure, right?" she said sarcastically.
"Come on, knock it off. We need to be serious," I scolded her. "Now, you need a belt or something you can tie around my arm, and some stitching wire and a sewing needle will work. If you don't have stitching wire than thread will be fine."
"Okay." Carrie ran off to find the things I had asked for. She was back in about a minute.
"Good. Now tie the belt tightly below my shoulder. Tightly, okay? It needs to be tight enough to stop the blood flow," I directed. She did as she was told, but while she did she asked questions.
"If you cut off the flow of blood to a certain part of the body, then won't that part eventually die and then have to be amputated? If that happens to you, you are going to have to go somewhere else, because I ain't gonna cut off your limb."
"Well, it is true that if the blood flow to any area of the body is cut off, than it will eventually end up needing amputation. Hopefully you will work quickly enough so that my arm will not reach the point where it would need amputation. Now that you are finished with the belt I need you to thread the needle with the stitching wire. You now how to sow, right?"
Carrie nodded her head. "Good. Now you need a knife, sorry I forgot about that."
"Don't worry about it," Carrie said. She looked a little pale and she stumbled a bit as she went to get the knife. When she returned she looked a bit better.
"You okay?" I asked nervously.
"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just that I got a bit freaked when I found out that there was probably going to be cutting involved," she smiled nervously.
"Don't worry. I know that you can do this," I said reassuringly to her. "Now, as you guessed, you need to cut open the wound more."
"Why?" she asked curiously.
"So that you can get to the cut artery," I told her. "Do you think that you can do this?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," she replied.
"Okay, cut slowly and precisely. I don't want you to make a mistake."
She swallowed and placed the edge of the blade onto my flesh. She pressed down and began to cut my arm open. Sharp jolts of pain shot up and down my arm, but I didn't wince. The last thing I wanted was her to think that she was hurting me. She was just about finished when there was a loud knock on the door. Carrie flinched and made a small nick in my arm.
"Oh shoot! I'm soo sorry! I didn't mess up did I?" Carrie said. She sounded very flustered.
"Don't worry, you didn't mess anything up. Now go answer the door," I told her. She washed her hands and hurried off to get the door.
"Hello Carrie! How have you been? May I come in?" I heard a voice say. The voice sounded as if it came from a young teenage boy.
'I know that voice, but where from?' I thought to myself. The door was in the other room so I couldn't see the boy or Carrie.
"Well, I'm kinda in the middle of something important," I heard Carrie say.
"Oh, I understand. I just came by to see how you are fairing on your own," the boy said.
"Shuichi!" I heard Carrie said. "I can handle myself, thank you very much." She sounded very angry.
'Kurama! I knew that voice was familiar,' I thought angrily. I heard Carrie pulling the door open more so that she could slam it shut.
"Wait! Carrie, invite him in. I think that he can help us!" I shouted.
Carrie's head poked around the corner of the door that led to the next room. "How do you know?" she asked.
"We're old friends. Now let him in," I demanded.
"Okay Shuichi, I guess you can come in," Carrie said grumpily.
A few seconds later she led a tall red haired boy into the room. "Hiei! What are you doing here? I thought you said that you would never come back to this city!" Kurama said.
"Yes well, Mokuro sent me on a mission. She said she needed me to kill a demon that was threatening her," I said.
"Well, either that demon was a handful or Carrie here has something to do with that," he said nodding at my arm.
"Yeah it was her. So, can you fix it?" I asked him. I knew he could.
"Yes, I believe that I will be able to stitch it up for you Hiei," Kurama replied smoothly.
"You should probably leave," Kurama turned to Carrie.
"G-good idea," she stuttered in reply.
"No, she needs to stay," I said crossly. "She's never been in a situation like this before. It will be good for her to see you working."
"He's got a point," Kurama turned sympathetically towards Carrie. "I know that you don't like this kind of stuff Carrie, but you'll have to see it eventually."
Carrie shot a dark glance at me. How was I supposed to know that she hated this kind of medical treatment? Carrie took a seat that was opposite to where Kurama sat at my wounded arm.
"Hmm, this cut is almost perfect, except for the nick at the end," Kurama said as he examined the wound.
"That happened when you knocked on the door. You scared me half to death! You're lucky that I didn't sever his artery completely!" Carrie growled. Although she sounded angry, I could tell that she was joking because she had a huge smile on her face.
"You did this? Even with your fear of knives and cutting and stuff like that?" Kurama asked jokingly.
"Get to work, fox. Carrie could have been finished by now," I growled at him.
"Okay, let's get down to business," Kurama said as he picked up the knife and began to finish what Carrie had started.
When he was finished with that he began to stitch up my wound. It was about fifteen minutes before Kurama was finished with my arm. He removed the belt from my arm.
"Ouch!" I gasped as I felt a prickly sensation running through my arm.
You know that feeling when your arm falls asleep and it feels like a thousand needles are poking you? Okay, imagine that, but with knives. Yes, with knives. That's how much it hurt.
"Don't worry about the pain Hiei, that's a good sign. It means that your arm is still alive," Kurama said calmly.
"I would rather it be dead," I said through clenched teeth.
"Don't worry, I'll go get a pain killer. Carrie, where can I find a bottle of tasagarn?"
"In the closet at the end of the hall," Carrie whispered. I turned to look at her as Kurama left the room.
She didn't look too good. "Carrie, are you okay?" I asked calmly as I placed my left hand on her knee. She seemed to relax a bit and nodded her head.
"I found it!" Kurama said as he reentered to the room.
I quickly took my hand off of Carrie's knee. I didn't want Kurama to think that I actually had feelings for the girl.
"This'll make you fall asleep, but you need the rest," Kurama said as he filled a shot full of the golden liquid.
"I know what the effects of tasagarn are Kurama," I snapped at him.
"You don't need to snap at me like that Hiei," Kurama said as he injected the liquid into my good arm.
I felt the effects immediately. In moments, I was asleep.
Akari: That's the end of chapter two! I have plenty more chapies already written, so there shouldn't be any long waiting periods. Oh, and please review. I don't want to end up feeling all depressed again.
Hiei: (throws open the door) You guys are sick.
Jusono: (looks shocked) Why, Hiei! I have no idea what you are talking about!
Hiei: Don't give me that crap, onna! I know it was you who ate all of my ice cream.
Jusono: I swear hiei; it's like you're in love with that stuff. I think that you should get married to it.
Hiei: Shut up!
Akari: Here we go again… Well, I know that this chapter was a little cheesy, and Hiei seems to sleep a lot… but it will get better, I promise! Please review! Goodbye now people!
Akari: Oh, and before I forget, how do you reply to reviews? I'm new and I haven't quite figured out all of the systems yet.
