Sorry for not updating for so long. Writers block sucks. I don't own any of the Yu Yu Hakusho characters. I own only my characters.

Enjoy and tell me what you think.

"You bastard!" bellowed Yusuke wide eyed full of fear and anger. Hiei's claw was embedded into the soft flesh of the browned haired human girl. The blood was overwhelming. He was in the same complete shock as the girl before him. Blood coated his hands. Hiei just stared at his crimson coated hands, dazed. A pained gasp brought him out of his daze. Keiko clutched her blood drenched stomach, pain dominate in her facial features.
"You little creep," screamed Kuwabara grabbing the slightly dazed fire demon by the collar and punching him. This did nothing to wake the short male. Yusuke was freed. He and Kurama rushed to hold Keiko and were desperately trying to stop the blood flow and feed pain medicine.
Suddenly there was and exploding sound and a blinding smoke filled the area. Breathing it in make Hiei sick to his stomach and he felt sleepy and his awareness slip from his control.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Hiei was thrown roughly on the hard ground. He felt helpless as the bulky oxen demon march out with the wounded Keiko. The fire demon felt as if his head was the only thing he possessed. It was the only thing he felt.
But that didn't bother him. He was kicking himself. He should have been able to stop and not gouge the kind human. Now she was hurt and captured by demons that wanted revenge on him. His past of being an assassin and thief were always with him. Hiei growled angrily not because of his past but the fact a person he was in debt to was now in danger due to his carelessness. Stupid weakling, he muttered to himself.
A gruff mummer and hoof beats woke him from his thoughts.
A half man Half horse looking creature entered and lifted him carelessly by his chine.
"Can't move yer ass can ya?" it gloated before punching him in the ribs a few time before chaining him to the wall. After it continued to beat Hiei. Very soon Hiei felt his body respond to his thoughts and he started to fight back.
"Mesta, that will do. Are you with us, dear boy?" asked a smooth, sleek voice. Hiei looked passed the centaur like creature and at the new demon in the room. Stepping from the shadows was a panther demon wearing a silver kimono with a lazy spotted tail swinging back and forth.
"Where did you take Keiko?!" demanded Hiei.
"Keiko?... Ah! Yes!" he said snapping his fingers," The poor darling with your claw marks in her. Such a shame should she die. She really is quite pretty."
Hiei glared. "You monster! I'll-"
"Those, good sir, are fighting word. Something you can't do right now," said the panther demon shaking his head, "One shouldn't fight without a cause."
"Is she dead?" demanded Hiei.
"No no no! The pretty vixen is in the care of mi lord's doctors. However, her fate is better than your," Reassured the panther demon, purring. "Thought it would be a miracle if she doesn't hate you."
Without any other words the panther demon stole out of the room followed by the centaur, who left Hiei a parting punch in the gut. With that the centaur clip-clopped out of the stone cell with the odd bit of stray strewn around leaving the slouched fire demon to his thoughts.

Why should the Detective's women forgive him, again? Everyone was appalled when he stabbed the innocent, caring girl.

Hiei shook his head. Don't fall into that pit of depression it won't help. It doesn't matter if he was suppose t be dead. It didn't matter if half the world wanted him to be dead. He had to find a way to get Keiko out of this place, safe and intact.

Keiko opened her sleepy eyes only to shut them as sunlight burned her retina. She groaned and snuggled happily into the warm, soft bed reluctant to get up. After much inner debate, she opened those chocolate brown eyes and was startled to find she wasn't snuggled safely in her bed at home. Instead she was in a king canopy bed from the medieval era.

She sat up quickly and whipped her head around taking in a view of the whole room. It was a very pretty room nothing suspicious about it except for the large coal black panther stretched out on the carpeted floor!

She was always exited to see the big cats at the zoo but this was very different. There was no steel fence separating her from the wild animal.

Keiko tried to breath deeply to steady her pounding heart. The large cat's ear twitched and it raised its massive head, eyes locked on the girl in the bed. Fear paralyzed the youth.

It stood and silently walked close to the bed. She stared it in the eye, even though she knew it was aggressive to do so, as it made its way to her bed side. It gracefully jumped on to the bed making Keiko Shut her eyes and cower.

Purring and silky fur made her open her eyes. The big cat was curled up against her, nudging her every now and then begging for attention. Confused but happy to be out of harms way she stroked the felines head tenderly.

"Good morning my dear. Are you ready for breakfast? Is your stomach well?" asked a demon with coal black hair, ears, and tail in a silver kimono.

"Umm... How are you?" asked Keiko biting her lip.

"Where are my manners? Forgive me. I am Felius the Fourth Lord of the Feline Domain," he says with a gracefully bow. Straightening, his black ears swiveled to hear Keiko's stomach growl.

"You must be Hungry. Stephus bring our guest's food in. Lavita off the bed. Give our Keiko some room," Felius said in a commanding tone. The panther stepped off the bed and left the room. Replacing Lavita a blue demon with short white horns poking out of messy black hair entered carrying a tray. He placed it on Keiko's lap with a submissive bow and stepped away to the side.

She lifted the lid to reveal a cooked fish which she couldn't identify. Her stomach did a flip.

"I really don't think I can eat," Keiko said politely covering the fish. She looked a little green around the gills. Her host looked at at understandingly.

"You must eat if you are to recover. Stephus, go see if you can find some soup in the kitchen," the feline lord ordered. Once the servant had left the room the lord sat in a chair next to her bed.

"My dear Keiko you are probably wondering why you are here. The reason is I am in need of your assistance. Would you be able to tell some of my friends about what Hiei has done to your stomach?" he asked his moon yellow cat eyes studying her. The youth was happy to help and she agreed. Outside in the garden Keiko noticed a cat had caught a sparrow.

Sorry for any grammer or spelling mistakes.
