Ok. Chapter…7 I think…. I dunno. Lets get this started.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu or this mythology story.
Orpheus lost his beloved wife. He went down to hell to save her. He made a pact with Hades; he was never to look upon Eurydice while they were on their journey back to earth. Orpheus broke the taboo and looked upon his wife. Eurydice returned to the darkness, which would be her home for the rest of eternity.
Hiei took the rose he found under Kurama's pillow and held it to him. He was finally going to be able to see him. He couldn't stand to be away from him anymore. Hiei. Yusuke, and Kuwabara followed Raenel to his home. It was actually quite nice for something made from only materials in hell. It even had two stories.
"Why did you come here? Was it for the red-haired boy? He is quite special. Not human, but not demon either. I would have sent him straight to hell because he was a demon, but he had a good heart. So, now I am at a stand still." Raenel told them.
"I came here because I love him. I can't live without him. Even if it means going to the depths of hell, I will save him. No matter what." Hiei said.
"Hmph. You remind me of someone who came here a long time ago. Orpheus." Raenel said.
"Orpheus? You mean that story was true?" Yusuke asked.
"Of course. You humans turned into a fairy tale, but Orpheus was a real person. He came down here and begged me and Lucifer to give him back his wife. All we asked was that he not look at her while they here still here. Of course the fool did look at her and sent her back here to me. He was fool. What makes you think you can save this half-demon?" Raenel explained.
"Because I am not a fool." Hiei said.
Raenel smiled when he heard this. "Very well."
They walked a little farther. Kuwabara and Yusuke looked in amazement at the house, but all Hiei could look at was the flower he held in his hand.
"We're here." Raenel said stopping at a door. "I must warn you though. Kurama will not be the person you remember."
"I don't care! Just let me see him again!" Hiei yelled. He didn't want to wait any longer. Kurama was right there and all he had to do was open a door.
"Ok then. I did warn you." Raenel said. He took out a key and opened the door.
Hiei ran inside and looked around for Kurama. When he saw him he nearly jumped backwards. Kurama was sitting upright against a wall. Carved on his chest was the word 'Hiei'. Hiei wondered how he could have possibly done this. He walked closer to him and saw a rose in his hand. Then Hiei understood. He used his powers to manipulate plants and made the flower as sharp as a knife. Then he carved 'Hiei' into his chest. Hiei touched the blood on Kurama and saw that it was still wet. Hiei looked into Kurama's eyes. They were glassy and staring at nothing. Hiei took his own rose and kissed it. Then he put it in Kurama's hair.
"Where is he? He's not here." Hiei said.
"If you lied to us I'll kill you!" Yusuke yelled.
"Hmph. I'd like to see you try. His sprit might have already moved on. I don't see why though. He was waiting for you. He might be where all the other spirits go if I don't judge them." Raenel said.
"Well, where is that?" Kuwabara asked.
"It's a big hole where lost souls go. Kurama was calling to you, Hiei. I didn't think he'd leave so quickly. Unless of course he lost all hope."
"Lost all hope? What do you mean?" Hiei said.
"The only reason Kurama was able to stay alive with me was because he believed he was waiting for you and that you would come get him. He must have gotten tired of waiting and moved on. Now, it will be even harder to save him. That is if you still want to." Raenel smirked when he said that.
"Of course he still wants to! Tell him, Hiei!" Yusuke yelled.
"I do. I said I wont stop and I won't. Not until I can get Kurama back." Hiei said.
"I don't see why he thought you didn't care about him. If only he had waited just a little longer." Kuwabara said.
"With his last burst of strength he carved the name of his lover into his chest with an object that can be used to describe love. But in this case, I think he meant it as a way to say how much he really hates you. He did use it as a weapon, did he not?" Raenel said.
"I'm starting to like you less and less." Yusuke said.
"Just tell me how to get him back, Raenel. Then I'll figure out how to prove to Kurama how much I love him." Hiei said.
Hiei was overwhelmed with thoughts right now. 'Kurama. Why didn't you wait a little longer? Did you really think I would do nothing to save you? I hear you Kurama. I hear you calling out my name. And I will save you. Whether you think I will or not.'
Oh no. Where's Kurama now? Read and find out! Jeez I hate the fact that my chapters are so short. They seem do long when I type them. Gosh I need to write more. Please review.
