Haiiiiii, everyone! I figured i've kept you all waiting long enough! So, here is the next chapter of Similarities!
Sakura turned to the tiny demigod, brushing water from her eyes. "He seemed…different." she accused.
Koenma shrugged. "Dying does that to some souls. He's let go of that thirst for revenge and power. If he hadn't, if he hadn't let go of all that hate, I would have sent him to Hell with his master."
"Orochimaru?" Sakura asked, just to be sure. Koenma nodded, eyes scarily cold for a being with the form of a baby. "He's going to the deepest Hell dimension I can manage to open. I'll personally make sure he's never reincarnated.
"Yes, because that just works ever so well. Nothing gets past you, does it, Koenma-sama?" Kurama murmured. Both Sakura and the child-god ignored the reincarnated kitsune.
Sakura bowed to the demigod, in thanks. "Now, Kurama, get her back to Ningenkai. I don't want to see her back in this office until it's her time to die." Koenma ordered. "And send Hiei in. I need his report." Kurama bowed, as well. "Yes, of course, Koenma-sama." He turned, and walked out of the office, Sakura trailing close behind.
On their way out of the busy lobby, they saw Hiei being fawned over by a pretty young woman.
"Lena, I'm sorry, but I have to steal Hiei away from you. Koenma's orders." Kurama said politely.
The girl, whose name was apparently 'Lena', looked disappointed, but sauntered away.
Hiei stared after her for a long moment.
"Well…you are rather attractive, Hiei." Kurama said, as if in answer to a question Sakura could not hear. "Hn." was Hiei's response, before he turned on a heel, and stalked away, in the direction they had just come from.
"Was she his…lover?" Sakura asked, curious about a female who would put up with such an angry individual…though, that was sort of the same thing she had done with Sasuke…how odd.
Kurama stifled a surprised laugh. "Who? Lena?" At Sakura's nod, he actually did laugh. "Oh, dear Inari, no. Lena's the Angel of Death." he told her. "And she loves nothing more, than to find a handsome male, and tell him when he's going to die."
Sakura gasped. "Hiei…he's going to die?"
So, just to clarify, this is not the end of this fic...yet. There are a couple more chapters to go, so stay with me people!
Also, I won't be updating for perhaps a week, because my family's going on our end of the summer trip, and I won't have Internet access.
Remember to review!
