This chapter is for Hiei and Vegeta fans because I feel like they haven't had any speaking time in my story. It won't be as long as the others but I wanted to post another chapter so you guys can have something to read. So here you go.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything at all!!!!

Chapter 11

Saiyan Meet Youkai

Hiei sat staring off into space. He glanced down at the simple minded ningens, glaring coldly at the world below. He sat atop the entrance of the stadium, blocking out every scent or noise. Stupid Ningenkai, he thoughts. How he hated their kind They were so simple minded and filled with petty problems.

Hiei continued to get lost in his thoughts before something caught his attention out of the corner of his eye.

Sensing movement behind him, Hiei disappeared and reappeared behind the person's neck, katana drawn and ready to slice through at any moment. He heard the person growl before he was tossed over the shoulder to land squarely on his feet. Growling he raised his sword to strike whoever had dared cause him this distraction. He stopped when he noticed the short man, Vegeta, glowing a dangerous color of yellow, it was almost gold. Sensing rather than seeing the danger, he growled and sheathed his weapon. "What do you want?" he whispered coldly. And of course he glared some more because that's what Hiei does. That is what a Hiei is supposed to. "And what are you?"

Vegeta, in all his Vegeta glory, happily glared back in his trademark stance. "And who are you, Ningen, to demand such a question?"

Hiei smirked to himself before whirling around.

"Ningen, you say?" he was still whispering only now there was a deadly humor in his tone of voice. "I should be so weak."

Vegeta was shocked, though he didn't show it. There were other beings besides ningens on this stupid planet? He'd been searching for years trying to find stronger beings besides ningens to battle. Ever since Kakarrot died and left him here to spend his days training to maybe one day have a shot at beating his rival.

"If you're not ningen, then what are you?" Vegeta demanded.

"I asked you first," Hiei all but growled back, never once wavering in his stance. He met the prince's eyes calmly and coldly. For awhile they were at a standstill and it seemed like no one would give in, until Hiei finally wavered. He had better things to do than argue like some child.

"Hiei. I'm a youkai," He stated matter-of-factly. Vegeta's eyes widened momentarily, then narrowed in suspicion.

"A youkai?" He questioned taking a step closer to observe his temporary rival. He was short, about two inches below his own height. He had short spiky black hair, rimmed in blue and he had a white star right above his forehead. Below it he wore a white head band and his arms were wrapped tightly in bandages. He was wearing a regular blue fighting kimono and carried two katana's at his hip. Vegeta raised an eyebrow at his arms. Perhaps an old injury or something, he figured.

"Yes." Hiei stated dryly.

"Hm," Vegeta pondered this then decided to formally introduce himself. Beside it's not everyday he meets someone that can stand up to the great Prince of Saiyans. Well, besides Gohan and Bulma that is. For God's sake, Kakarrot even flinched when under the glare of the mighty prince.

"My name is Vegeta, Prince of the Saiyans," he introduced, nodding his head formally. Hiei nodded back, his eyes never once showed any sign of recognition or surprise. But inside his mind was racing. What was a saiyan? In all his years spent in the Makai, he'd never heard of one. So he must be....

"An alien?" he questioned, curiosity evident in his tone.

Vegeta seemed surprised that the little youkai could guess so accurately. He must be smart. What a worthy opponent. "Yes. How did you know?"

Hiei smirked confidentially. "It's not hard. In all my years in the Makai, I've never heard of a Saiyan and I know just about every youkai that ever existed. Besides you look human enough, but your aura is totally off. Plus you seem young."

What's Makai? Mentally questioned, then upon remembering the youkai's response, exclaimed, "what!? "Young!? Now wait just a god damn minute here! Who do you think you are, youkai? I'm older than you."

Hiei was still smirking. He loved pissing people off. It's what Hiei does best. "Wrong again." He answered simply, arms crossed. Vegeta was like Yusuke in that once you got him riled up, he was easy to antagonize

"Why you...." Came his rival's response. "You can't be any older than I am and I'm 35 (guessing here people and making up an age. Come on, you guys know Vegeta is younger than he looks. He's only five years older than Goku.)

"Try 300," Hiei stated and for once Vegeta's stance wavered and his eyes bugged out. "Youkai," Hiei reminded him, pointing to himself as if talking to a child. "Youkai age much slower than ningens, therefore we can live for longer periods of time. In human age I guess you could say I'm 18."

"Hm," Vegeta responded, now back to normal scowling. He turned away to consider his options. He could either blast his opponent now for making him feel like such a...well...much as he didn't want to admit it....a loser. Or he could make him pay in the ring. Vegeta grinned. Yes, he rather liked the sound of that.

He turned around to give the little youkai a piece of his mind, but was astounded to see the youkai gone. He looked everywhere but couldn't sense his ki anywhere. (Remember, the dbz gang refers to their energy as ki. The yuyu's energy is spirit energy.) He was startled out of his thoughts when a deep voice boomed in his head, stepping up to the challenge.

"Anytime Vegeta, Prince of Saiyans." And then it was gone, before Vegeta could even blink. He growled then smirked. He now had something to look forward to. Oh, yes, he was so looking forward to this.

Okay, well I know this chapter is short and everything, but I wanted to hurry up and post another one so people who actually read this fic don't get agitated. So, here is a little one and I hope you guys enjoy. Remember to read and respond. Oh, and to all those who are confused, there is only one person who cam close to getting right who Omoide's reincarnation is going to be. However I'm not going to tell you. If you want a hint, go back and read chapter 2 a few times. Oh and Omoide is a boy. There is no way I'm going to reincarnate him into a girl, so it is definitely not Kagome. And thanks to those few who voted. I'm posting both poles on Mediaminer and together so if people get confused as to where I'm getting my votes, they are coming from both sites since too few people are voting and reading my story. So anyway, I hope you enjoy.

I'll post the few votes up that I've gotten for the winner of the tournament:

Kagome: 2

Sesshomaru: 1

Gohan: 1

Hiei: 0

Kurama: 0

Vegeta: 0

Yusuke: 0

And that is all, so come on people, start typing if you want your personal favorite to win. And no, I've already stated this is not a Hiei/Kag simply cause I don't know how to write one and Kur/Kag are my favorite, so no Hiei/Kag. But I can make them get closer and act like brother and sister like in so many fics.
