"Come back here you Baka Onna!"
"Really, Hiei! I didn't mean to do it! It wasn't my fault! Please-- Don't you throw that-- AH!"
Considering that she was screwed in this situation anyway, the deity dodged the very expensive vase by flying right through one of Genkai's shoji doors. It would cause her problems with Genkai later, but, at the moment, she could care less. The deity had done the unthinkable, telling the fire demon's sister that she was the FIRE DEMON'S SISTER!
Needless to say, if she didn't get out of the temple and into the sky, she'd probably be stuffed with her head on a wall very soon.
#87- Tugging
Shuffling from one foot to another rapidly, a certain furry commentator looked at herself again in the mirror once more.
Why had Koto agreed to go out with the drunk Aussie known as Chu, again?
'Because, he's sweet, and compliments you whenever he can and is a really nice guy who doesn't beet up on you.'
Her conscience was such a nosy bitch.
#88- Vantage
Atop a very high, but very vacant building, Hiei looked through the lens of the gun that Yusuke had given him an hour ago. The gun he was currently pointing at the head of a demon that had caused the little fire demon and the rest of the Tantei a great amount of pain and annoyance.
Lining up the shot, Hiei's blood red eyes focused, his finger squeezing the trigger, the slight push of the gun bucking...
The demon was dead. Nothing left of his head but the blood.
#89- Masquerade
Flash of green, flash of grey, flash of red and flash of bay. Face of fox, face of cat, face of ram and face of dragon. A very odd assortment of people decorated the halls of Reikai. A celebration of some sort had been called and creatures that even Hiei and Kurama didn't even knew existed began to come out of the woodwork.
Why?
Yusuke thought it had something to do with Koenma banging Ayame, Kuwabara thought something along the same line, Kurama thought it had something to do with peace among the nations and Hiei didn't give a damn about anything except the sweet snow they were serving in extremely large quantities.
The Reikai still hadn't found their girls who were dressed up, themselves hidden among the countless freaks.
#90- Pennies
One, two, three... One, two, three... Some silver coins, some red, some gold... Some had grown fungus after a few years, some had remained pristine...
Raising Rinku up along with him, Jin floated above a Reikai water fountain that probably dated back to before the wind master was born. It's stone cracking, the water sometimes missing the rim, and through out the entire thing little coins sat, looking rather... dare Jin say... happy, almost. Sparkling in the morning sun like little diamonds.
"What's the point of leaving money in a fountain?" The smaller, considerably younger demon asked the redhead, his fingers lapping against the water, lightly.
"Humans say it brings luck or somethin'." Jin answered, prying from his white pants a cent, flicking it in to join the others in a watery paradise. The thought made the wind master grin.
#91- Piano
Walking slowly through a dream scape Hiei was quite familiar with these days, the black clad demon stopped before a door. Very old and rusting. And grabbing the knob, the koorime male walked into the woman he'd been watching for a long time's eternal dream.
He was walking through the water of the sea, the silt from the bottom shifting upward when he began walking.
Ahead of him, Hiei saw what he was looking for.
Sitting but not sitting on nothingness, was his blue haired deity of death, playing an old, white as ivory piano. But, at the same time, not playing it. He could not hear a thing, though her fingers traced the keys with such precision, he was certain that Botan could definitely hear it. She had come here many times before, so she must know what she was playing. In the cold water of the sea.
Hiei also knew that she didn't or perhaps couldn't see him right now. That was a sort of comfort, considering he had snuck into her deepest secret without permission.
#92- Apartment
"Did you hear what I said, Hinageshi? I absolutely adore you."
Still smiling that smile that drove all men crazy, the youngest of the Reikai ferry women continued to make spaghetti as George confessed his undying love for her.
"I know ogre, I know. You've said it over a hundred times since we've moved in together, after all." Hinageshi replied, finally turning to give Koenma's tortured employee a wink and yet another smile.
#93- Winter
Sounds of a small demon child echoed through the white covered valley as Rinku discovered what fun it was to ski with only one wooden foot thing. As he called it. He still wasn't sure what it was actually called.
And behind him, fretting like a mother hen, was Touya, no skis at all and running like a madman.
"Rinku-- Please be careful! You could get really hurt! Wait-- watch out for that-- don't do-- Swerve!"
#94- Gamble
"You do realize that if you lose this little bet, Reikai will have to directly finance Makai's terrorism of the people?" Shizuru asked the redheaded fox as he walked through the casino's double doors with ease, while she sweat like a cow. She had only agreed to come to make sure Kurama didn't get shot by some sniper, and not because she was very worried about the male. Nope.
"Yes, Shizuru, I'm aware-- are you alright though? You look like, well..."
"Crap? Yeah, the shower broke halfway through my cleaning regiment this morning."
#95- Flaming
"You're gay, aren't ya'?"
The sweet but still thick coffee that had previously occupied Suzuki's mouth was now making it's way through the blonde's nose in the most painful way. Leaving him a sputtering, dripping mess as he looked indignantly to the redhead of their house of six demons.
"Where did you ever get that idea, you Irish yuppie?! Has Shishi been spouting lewd comments about me again?!"
"No." Jin said, looking innocent as anything.
"Then where did you get that idea from?!"
"Well, the first clue was that you're kinda dainty--"
"Are not!"
"Really?"
"Anyway, the second clue was that you have this really weird obsession with rainbows."
"Because they're beautiful!"
"And the third clue is because you have more hair products then all of the Tantei's females put together." Jin concluded.
Suzuki just stood there for a moment, opening his mouth, then closing mit, then opening it again like a fish.
After a moment, he simply turned away from the floating redhead, walked into his room and slammed the door. This meant nothing. Yes.
