9 Months of Maternity
Chapter 9- Inside the Ice Glass
Hiei's eyes opened slowly, he was in a cold room, lying down on a cemented bed, he found himself inside a big glass with wires connected to his abdomen and his chest (something like when Mukuro nursed him when he was injured fighting Shigure, only no water, episode 99 see it for yourself in my profile), there was nothing but a bed inside the glass. Hiei was held captive inside the glass room.
"Where am I?" Hiei said as he opened his eyes slowly. As he caught sight of everything he stood from the cemented bed he looked out of he glass and saw four elders standing watching him.
"You're finally awake, Hiei." An elder said her hands were crossed behind her back; she was looking at Hiei with a smirk.
"What? How did I get here! Kurama?" Hiei yelled, he didn't know what was going on, why was he in the glass room where wires were connected to his body. Why are the Koorime elders outside? Hiei didn't know what was going on, he was left out.
"Hiei, finally you've waken up. Don't you see, you are back in the Koorime Island? And it's all because of that thing." Another elder said to Hiei.
"What?" Hiei wasn't clear with the happenings.
"You are here, because of your child. We cannot allow anymore disgrace to the Koorime clan because of the mistakes you made!" The third elder said to Hiei.
"Mistake! How dare you call my child a mistake! What the hell is your business if I have this child or not! Why don't you just leave my family and me alone! Haven't you've done enough!" Hiei growled.
"Hiei, you don't understand, do you the reason why you are here?" The last elder asked Hiei.
"Hn. I don't plan to, I will break myself out of here, and if that's the last thing I would do." Hiei started to take the wires out of his body; he tried to take them out, but it was stuck to his body like glue. After he tried taking the wires out, he lost his patience, he needed to get out of the glass, as he punched the glass with the whole power, his hand turned into ice.
"What!" Hiei couldn't even touch the glass; it was so cold that it would turn his hand into ice. He gathered all the aura he had and tried to melt the ice in his hand, but the baby took up all the aura of Hiei, now he couldn't melt the ice in his hand. "Shit!" He cursed.
"Hiei, there is no way for you to get out of this glass, it is made from Koorime ice, as you know it is not very easy to break it, especially when you are pregnant." The first elder said.
Hiei turned at the elder, anger in his eyes. "What do you want from me?"
"Simple, the kid." The third elder said.
"What are you planning to do with my child? Kill it? You will not get your hands on my child!" Hiei said angrily.
"You seem to misunderstand Hiei, we are not finished. We may spare the life of your child, when we determine its gender." The seconded elder said.
"What do you mean?" Hiei said, and then the sudden thought if Kurama crossed his head "What did you do with Kurama?" Hiei demanded.
"You see in three to four months we can determine the gender of the kid, if it is a girl we will spare its life, but we are going to transfer it to another womb so that we can be sure that the kid will have the Koorime features. If you stay too close to that Youko, it will only awaken the genes the kid had from him, and we don't want that, so we held you captive as soon as possible. We want to avoid all wrong cause with that Youko." The forth elder said.
As Hiei heard these words, he trembled, he didn't want his unborn child to be taken away from him even it means sparing its life and living in a different womb. Hiei created this child with Kurama, he should be the one giving life to his and Kurama's child not any other bullshit demon. "And what if it is a boy?" he asked softly.
"We kill it."
Hiei's eyes opened up wide, he really wished that the baby would be a girl. He didn't want it to die no matter what. However, the thought of it living in a different womb was even more painful. It was HIS child.
"In three months you will be staying here, we will be monitoring you and the baby. You are not allowed to go anywhere; you are to stay inside that glass room, under the watchful eyes of Toya." Another elder said to Hiei.
"What? Toya?"
Suddenly Toya appeared out of nowhere exposing himself to Hiei "Yes, Toya is really useful these days, he was the one who brought you here. Because of him you are here."
"Toya, I thought that you were friends with…" Hiei couldn't continue as another elder interrupted.
"Toya is under the Koorime control now; he only follows the Koorime and no one else."
Hiei noticed the eyes of Toya, it wasn't as blue as usual, and they were red.
"Now, you will get three meals a day nothing more, maybe less, if you don't behave yourself. You will have no visitors, we will check up on you every evening." The first elder said to Hiei.
Hiei realized that there were only four elders, there was suppose to be five, there was one missing, and that was Rui. "Wait, where is Rui?" Hiei asked.
"Hmph, not even Rui can visit you. She is forbidden to go and see anyone, because of what she did three years ago, she is punished to stay in this tower as long as she lived." An elder explained.
"What? What did she do!"
"Don't you remember? Youko was imprisoned, and she helped him escape in exchange she was bound to be kept in this tower for the rest of her life. That was the ultimate punishment, it is just as bad as yours, but unlike her, she can still freely go around the room, unlike you are wired up there in that bed."
Hiei grind his teeth together because of anger. "You darn bitch!"
"Say what you want, but for now, we are the once in control." The second elder said.
"I will never allow you to get your filthy hand on my child, this is my child. Why don't you just leave us alone! Why do you have to make Rui suffer from what I've done, haven't you done enough?" Hiei said angrily.
"Hiei, your mother, Hina, made the biggest mistake of her life laboring you in her womb and giving birth to you. It was a disgrace to our clan. You were a part of our clan, with a mixture of another clan. Our pride was ruin, we had to do something. After we found out that you inherited some of the traits of the Koorime maidens, the trait of producing life that even made us thought we needed to do something. We cannot allow history to repeat it self again." An elder explained.
"We thought of killing the child, but it wouldn't be too fair for the child if it turned out to be a female. There was a 25 chance for the child to have the Koorime traits, so we thought, we could spare the life of the kid, but if it was a female." Another one explained.
"Knowing the chances was only ¼ of the kid to be Koorime like we decided that when it is in it's forth or fifth month we will transfer the baby to another Koorime womb. The Koorime will feed it will the entire ice aura that she has, converting all the fire and Youko aura into a full ice aura."
"And once it gives birth the kid will be a full ice demon. She will have no memories of her real origin; she will be raised like a full Koorime maiden." The last elder explained.
Hiei listened to them, but he couldn't bare thinking his child will be changed into something he was not created with. "If it is a girl, whose womb are you using for it to grow into?" Hiei asked.
"I am very sure you know who she is Hiei," The elder paused made a sly smile "she is your sister."
"What Yukina? You held her captive as well!"
"Yukina is under the Koorime protection, she is an important piece of our experiment. She came here before you did; she was bribed to come here, in exchange of that carrot head idiot." The elder was referring to Kuwabara.
"Where is she!" Hiei demanded.
"Oh don't worry, she is safe, she is with Rui at the moment." An elder said to Hiei.
"If you pull a strand of her hair, I swear I'll kill you all!" Hiei screamed.
The elder ignored Hiei's word, the began to exit the room "We will be leaving you now Hiei, I hope you have a good night." The elders exited the room, leaving Hiei inside the glass room with Toya outside keeping an eye on Hiei.
"Bullshit." Hiei cursed. He looked at his surroundings and he tried to look for ways to get out of the glass there were nothing but wires, and the cemented bed. Hiei tried to gather all his energy up, the made his energy in its maximum, as he gathered all his energy his stomach started to hurt, the baby was loosing energy, and it needed nourishment. Hiei didn't eat for two days, the baby was hungry, he had to stop gathering up his energy and instead he gave his gathered energy to his child. Feeding it.
"I am sorry, I promise, nothing bad will happen to you while we are here. I am not letting those bitches get their hand on you." Hiei said to his child feeding it with some of the energy he gathered. 'Kurama, where are you? I need you right now, please rescue us…soon.'
(X)(X)(X)(X)(X)(X)(X)(X)(X)(X)
He jumped from branch to branch in search for Hiei, Kurama tried to smell the scent of his lover. Kurama was in Makai for two days now; he has been searching for Hiei non-stop. He had no luck of catching up with Hiei, Kurama had fought about dozens of demons now, he didn't care if he looked like dirt, his uniform was almost covered in blood, a mixture of his blood and demon blood. He couldn't care much as long as he finds Hiei, here, now.
Kurama paused a bit, catching his breath. He was standing on a tree, he tried to sense where his lover could be, but with the low spirit energy Hiei had, it was impossible for Kurama to look for him now.
Kurama began to jump from tree to tree again, and then he stopped as he felt a demon was following him.
"Show yourself." The fox demanded.
There was no answer. Kurama got pissed he took out his rose, turning it into a rose whip.
"Show yourself now, or your head is mine." Kurama threatened.
The demon was hiding in the trees he then carefully changed his direction, moving closer to Kurama.
"There is no need to be reckless Youko, you don't need to be afraid, and your lover is safe. It is too bad though you wouldn't ever see him again. You're wasting your time here in Makai, go home." It said.
Crimson eyes was trying to figure where the demon could be exactly, the spirit energy of the demon seemed so familiar, but somehow it was different in a way it was converted in to something. "Who are you? Show yourself." Kurama said.
"There is no need for me to show myself, you perfectly know who I am." It said to Kurama, its voice sounded so seducing, yet very dangerous.
"If you know where Hiei is, tell me, or I'll your head and feast on it." Kurama threatened him again.
"That is something I cannot tell. I told you that it would be a waste for you to be here Kurama, go home. Leave things as they are, like you left me with Sansui in peace." He said.
"What! Itsuki?" Kurama lowered his whip, as the familiar demon made him shown.
The blued hair, handsome, spell caster made himself shown. "Bingo, you're correct." He said to Kurama.
"I thought you disappeared with Sensui's body a long time before, what you are doing! Where is Hiei!" Kurama demanded answers from the spell caster.
Itsuki made a little laugh, "Didn't you know that the body of Sensui was taken? It was taken by those Koorime demons," he paused as he made a sarcastic laugh "they took Sensui, my Sensui. They took Sensui!" A sudden change in his mood was turned into anger. Itsuki loved Sensui very much, even if he was dead, Itsuki would treat Sensui's dead body as if it were alive, he loved Sensui very much, but the Koorime took his body from Itsuki.
"Itsuki, I am sorry. I didn't mean…" Kurama stopped as Itsuki spoke.
"Shut up! It's because of you and Hiei my Sensui is gone. Leave or I am going to be forced to kill you." Itsuki said coldly.
"Itsuki…what happened? Why did they take Sensui's body?" Kurama asked.
"Those ice maidens said that if I kept you away from the island they will return the body of Sensui to me, and that is what I am going to do, I am going to keep you from getting in the island so that I can have the body of Sensui back." Itsuki said.
"But Itsuki, I need to rescue Hiei, he is not in a very well condition right now." Kurama tried to explain to him.
"No."
"Itsuki…"
"I said NO! I want my Sensui back no matter what!"
Kurama started at Itsuki, like him Kurama only did this for his lover, Itsuki wanted to bring back the dead corps of Sensui because of his love for him. Like Kurama, he would risk anything to be able to have his lover back in his arms at this very moment. "I am sorry Itsuki, but I don't want to fight you. But this is for Hiei and our baby." Kurama positioned himself and was ready to fight Itsuki able to get through him and rescue his lover.
Itsuki did the same he was in his fighting position. Both of them were ready to attack anytime. The battle for their loved ones is about to begin.

BDT: Yey! I am not grounded anymore! Yey! My mom gave a consideration to me this time, but now I have to be careful not to abuse my time in the computer.
Therefore, what do you think about it? I had a hard time figuring out the name of Itsuki before I actually remember his name. Oh well, at least there I remembered it, well hey I haven't watched Yu Yu Hakusho for a month now, and I forgot some of the names of the characters I have to admit. As if I forgot, the name of the team of Toya was in when he was in the Dark Tournament battling with Team Urameshi. (sigh).
I am really into Yaoi now a day again, have you people heard of Kyou Kara Maou? It has a really Yaoi anime, two guys being engaged. Oh well, sharing. I love that anime! I am certified 100 Yaoi girl until the end! O.o
Oh yeah, please read and review please…tell me what you think about my grammar. Improved? On the other hand, not? Please tell me! (I am joining this news paper club, and my grammar has to be perfect! I hope I was accepted.)
