Chapter 2: Rain Drops on Roses
Narrator's input:
Well several smaller missions have passed nothing extreme. Sadly our two main characters are still as confused as ever about their emotions for each other. So we are back to square one. But I assure you something will happen. But alas this is not my story to narrate. Let us return to the ever-amusing world of Yu Yu Hakusho.
Kurama sighed for the umpteenth time that afternoon. It was raining gently outside. The raindrops playfully dancing on the roof of the fox's home. He gazed out of his bedroom window, at one of the trees. The leaves were glistening from the water that had already landed on them.
Rain brings new life.
This being said, no plant master in all three worlds could concentrate on such things as homework on an event like this. Kurama finally allowed himself to set aside the assignment he had been working on. Leaving his minds free to wonder. Which he had been careful not to do since that faithful day at the arcade. For good reasons
This was only briefly after about five minutes of silence there was the thunderous sound of a fist pounding his window. And a deep voice bellowing:
"FOX! OPEN THE DAMN WINDOW!"
Hiei often came to Kurama's house on rainy days such as this. He was still stuck in the human world and had no where to get to avoid the downpour.
Kurama bounded to the window, after fumbling with the latch for several seconds, threw it open. A disheveled Hiei flew into the room. Kurama saw that Hiei's hair was sopping wet, it was comically draped over his face. Kurama failed miserably to stifle a grin. Which Hiei didn't see. He did sense it. Hiei was now giving off the aura of annoyance, and slight anger.
After landing cat-like on his feet, the fire demon emitted a thick cloud of steam as he channeled his power to dry himself. Kurama who had been standing near Hiei was doused in the warm steam.
"Must you always do that?" Kurama asked, shaking his hair out of his face, exaggerating his displeasure slightly, only wanting to see Hiei's reaction.
"Hn." Was the response, accompanied with The Death Glare. Which Kurama knew he would do. It was Hiei trademark that and his legendary speed.
Hiei flopped onto Kurama's bed, hands folded behind his head. He stared up at Kurama, his expression saying "What are you gonna do now?"
"I made that this morning. At least take off your shoes. Its so unsanitary."
"Your bed." Hiei replied simply. "If you like to keep it so clean, this shouldn't bother you."
He makes a wonderful point Shuuichi.
You shut up. For once just don't comment. Kurama thought mentally glaring at Youko.
Why should I? I am in a good mood and I am bored. And your 'death glares' are never that effective.
What did I do to deserve this? I could have been a perfectly normal human but no, I got stuck with having an infamous fox demon sharing my body and being able to read my thoughts. And if that wasn't enough he can comment whenever he wants. Why me?
"Your arguments are amusing to watch Fox." Hiei said smirking. Kurama loved the way the Hiei's eyes twinkled slightly every time he smirked.
What am I thinking? He is a friend.
Any incredibly sexy fire demon of a friend at that.
For once I actually agree with you.
When will you ever learn? That I am always right.
"I guessed as much." Kurama muttered replying to Hiei and ignoring Youko.
Suddenly Kurama tensed. His limbs snapping to his sides, his beautiful emerald eyes becoming hollow. He began swaying from side to side, teetering back and forth. Like he was standing in a boat that was braving stormy waters.
Hiei was next to his partner in less than an instant. Placing a hand firmly on his back to keep him steady. Something was wrong obviously the kitsune's eyes rolled back into his head.
Without thinking Hiei plunged himself into the depths of Kurama's mind. But to no avail, he was thrust back out, left with the feeling as though he had been slammed against a very hard brick wall. He grimaced as he opened his eyes. He shook the pain away.
Damn it Fox!
Kurama's heart beat was erratic and twice the speed a human's heart should go. Hiei had no idea what was wrong or what to do. His mind raced trying to come up with a solution quickly. Hiei wasn't the planner of the group. That was Kurama. Well in any group Kurama was always the strategist. So Hiei was basically on his own.
Yukina should be able to help! She can heal him and Genkai will be able to tell what is wrong. To hell if you're not supposed to move an unconscious person how else will I be able to get help!
Thankfully Kurama hadn't locked to window when he had come in. After picking him up in a fireman's carry Hiei kicked the window open and soar out into the rain. Kurama's reassuring heartbeat against his chest. He sped up every time it skipped a beat.
Narrator: There is something terribly wrong with Kurama! What will Genkai and Yukina say? How will this change Hiei and Kurama's feelings for each other? All coming in the next Chapter of As You Wish, a Yu Yu Hakusho fanfiction!
(Well basically I just told you the next chapter. How did you like this one? Please comment. I am having so much fun writing this! And no need to worry all of this will be explained in the next chapter which is coming soon. The narrator is fun to play. Any comment or suggestions are welcome, be as...truthful as you want. And Thank the Lord for spellcheck, otherwise you readers would have no idea what I am saying.)
