Triple Threat

Chapter 4:

Saharu's eye shot open, as she shot up from her sleep. Saharu, then closed her eyes again, as she winced at the enormous amount of pain that accumulated in her abdomen. She felt two hands hold onto her shoulders, and gently push her back down. Saharu, opened her eyes to see Sakura staring at her with a worried expression on her face, "Going to face Reyoku alone, was really stupid!" Saharu didn't say anything, instead, she just stared. Sakura sighed, "Do you want anything?" Saharu blinked, "I would like some water, please." Sakura nodded and left room. As soon as Saharu couldn't hear her foot steps anymore, she slowly and quietly got of bed. She then, stuck her head out of the doorway, to make sure no one was coming. When there wasn't any sign of anyone, she followed her nose to find where Hiei was. She soon came to a closed door. She made a point to see if she smelt anyone. Saharu listened to see if anybody else was in the room, the only thing Saharu heard was the sounds of someone sleeping.

Saharu quietly opened the door and walked in. Lying in the bed sound asleep was Hiei. Saharu stepped into the room, quietly, wincing in the process. Ignoring the pain, Saharu walked over to a nearby chair, then pulled it so it was next to the bed, and sat down, wincing again. Saharu rapped her arm around her abdomen, and felt a liquid substance. Saharu removed her arm, only to reveal that her arm was covered in blood. Ignoring it, she looked at Hiei's sleeping form, 'What is it that draws me to you? Why do you remind so much of Tai?'. The flashback of Tai fighting Reyoku, replayed in Saharu's mind. Then again, only instead of Tai, Hiei was fighting Reyoku. As these thoughts and questions raced through her, she soon fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Sakura had gotten a glass of water and was walking down the hall. She noticed that the door to where Saharu was supposed to be was wide open. Sakura sighed, annoyed, and ran to the door. Saharu wasn't anywhere to be found. Sakura looked at the ground and noticed drops of blood trailing down the hall. 'She just couldn't listen, could she? No, she had to go and reopen her wounds. And cause more pain for herself!' Sakura thought to herself, as she followed the drops of blood. Finally, she came across the room where Hiei was, 'Why would she be here?'. Sakura shrugged, and looked inside. She saw Saharu laying half way on the bed, sleeping. Sakura smiled, until she noticed blood dripping down the chair into a small puddle of blood underneath her sister. Sakura sighed, as she started to walk away to get more bandages.

Soon, after Sakura left, Hiei woke up. Hiei sat up, and couldn't help but notice Saharu partly laying on the bed. Hiei grabbed the blanket that covered him and covered Saharu's sleeping form. Then, Hiei got up and walked out of the room. As Hiei walked into the room where the others were, all conversation stopped and all eyes fell upon him. Hiei ignored the glances and leaned on the nearest wall in the room. "What do you think their next actions will be?" Yusuke asked breaking the silence. "They're gonna...go after...Sakura and...Serena." Saharu's voice answered. Everyone looked over and saw Saharu leaning on the wall in the doorway to the room. "Saharu! You should still be in bed!" Serena scolded. "I'm fine. Back on the subject, Reyoku, Rorun, and Roku, are all alike. They won't stop until they get what they want. Hell, they might even come after me because they know I'm injured!" Saharu answered. "Well, you're never gonna get better until to let your wounds heal!" Sakura interjected. "Your sister's right." Kurama agreed. Sakura sighed, then smiled, "C'mon, let's get new bandages for your wounds." Saharu sighed, "Fine." Then, Sakura, Serena, and Saharu walked out of the room and into another one. "You shouldn't be up either." Kurama said to Hiei. Hiei replied with his famous, "Hn."

"What are we gonna do?" Serena asked her sisters, "We can't just let them hurt Yusuke, Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara!" Sakura nodded, "True, but what can we do?" Saharu sighed, "It's just like what happened with Tai, Towa and Trowa." After that was said the three sisters looked sad. Saharu thought for moment, then smirked, "Unless...." Sakura and Serena looked confused for a moment, then both of them shook their heads. "No, it's to risky! Besides, you're only allowed to do that when, both mother and father die." Serena answered. "Yeah, and if you do it now, it could kill you." Sakura added. Saharu looked at the ground, "No one is gonna get hurt because of me, ever again! No matter the sacrifice I have to make." Saharu muttered, thinking, 'Hiei is never gonna get hurt because of me again...' Sakura sighed, "Even at the cost of your life? What about us?" "Yeah, if you do something like that, you'd be hurting us. Don't we count?" Serena agreed, then smirked, "And what about Hiei?" Saharu's eyes shot up from the floor, to glare at her sister, "What about him?" Sakura smirked at Saharu's response, as she finished changing her sister's bandages. Serena continued to smirk, "I don't think he would approve of this either!"

Saharu ignored her sisters and got up, and walked out of the room. Serena and Sakura both looked at each other, then quickly got up and ran after her. Saharu walked past the others, and towards the door. Kurama and Yusuke look at each other, then looked back over to the door, just in time to see Serena and Sakura rush by. Kurama and Yusuke got up quickly, and walked out of the room following the girls. Hiei stayed in the room and didn't move a muscle. Then, the door slammed and Saharu wasn't seen in the room anymore. Sakura went to open the door, but was thrown back by some sort of power. Luckily, Kurama was behind her, and caught her so she didn't get hurt. Kurama then, put her down, "What was that all about?" Serena sighed, "We were picking on her, but we still should find her before she does something stupid." Kuwabara came running into the room, "Hey, guys! It happened again, except this time it was worse!" Yusuke looked at Kuwabara confused, "What the hell are you talking about?" Then, they followed Kuwabara into the room, they were in before. There was a TV on showing the latest news. "Today, California experienced another unexplainable earthquake, that caused less damage, but hit the state pretty hard. In other news the ring of volcanoes, commonly known as the ring of fire, all erupted at the same time causing a phenomenon unlike anyone's ever seen..." Then the announcer guy went on to tell about other news, no one paid attention. Everyone, except for Hiei, looked at Sakura, who in return smiled innocently. "If you caused the earthquake, then Saharu caused the numerous volcano eruption?" Kurama thought out loud. Sakura and Serena both nodded...

'Why would he care? It's not as if he likes me.....but if he doesn't, then why did he save me?' Saharu thought to herself. Saharu didn't realize this, but she was being watched....

Rorun and his brother, Roku, sat watching Saharu, boredom evident in their faces. "Why is it that when ever, Reyoku, wants something down, we have to do it?" Roku asked his elder brother. Rorun just shrugged, "I don't care what he wants us to do, I just like the fighting part." He replied emotionless. Roku rolled his eyes, "C'mon we should start moving, if we don't want to loose her." Rorun, nodded, and they both left to catch up with Saharu. She had teleported to a near-by forest. Saharu decided to rest, so she sat at the base of a near-by tree.

Back with the others

Everyone was about to walk out the door, when Botan came bursting through the door. "I have some bad news!" She said seriously. Serena blinked, "What would that be?" Botan stared at the floor, "There's been a murder....." Sakura's eyes widened, "Who was murdered, do we know them?" Botan nodded, "Yes, very well, " Botan sighed, "You're parents were murdered." Both Sakura's and Serena's face, took a look of horror. Calmly Kurama asked, "Do you know who did it?" Botan shook her head, "But with resent events, I would say that it was Reyoku or one of his brothers, if not all of them." The two princesses stood there still in shock, then tears started to pour down their faces. Then, Kurama hugged Sakura, as Yusuke did the same only to Serena. "Where is Saharu?" Botan asked. "She got angry at something they said, and stormed out the door." Yusuke answered. Botan thought for a second, "I guess that's better than having her here to hear this, because she'd probably try to kill them again!" Botan said, trying to look on the bright side. Sakura stopped crying, and looked over at her sister. "You do know what this means?" Serena looked up and thought for second, "No..." "Think about the resent events." replied Sakura. Serena thought about it once again, "No, that can't happen right now, she's not ready!"........
