"I can't say right now but I clue you in so follow my lead and don't tell anyone, it may be dangerous to talk about this after today" Said Erica

By now all of the people in the cell who were berely alive were able to walk atleast to get out of the cell this left the 2 girl tired and weak and worse of all vounerable.

They then left the cell heading back to the tournament only to be seen by Reinko.

"great" said Erica sarcastically

"who's that?" Asked Solaria

"that is the dreaded horror also known as Reinko" said Erica

"Erica" called Reinko angrily

"why now?" she said to herself trying to ignore him she was so close to the door 'just let me get to the door' she thought but to no avail given the state that they were in there was no possible way they could out run him.

He was right beside them in a matter of seconds and growling

"where the hell have you been and how dare you leave ME, Reinko frozen while you parade off with some other man" said Reinko glaring daggers at Erica who didn't even flinch

"2 things. 1 don't ever talk to me like that again and 2 I don't like you not even a little bit. Hiei now I don't like I love an emotion that I could never feel for you so good day sir" she said as she grabbed on to Solaria for support she was beginning to feel a tad bit faintish.

"bitch" he said while smacking her causing both her and Solaria to topple over

" you didn't answer my question. You will not leave until you do" he said while looking down at them just now noticing Solaria's presence

"how rude of me. I don't believe we've been properly introduced, my name is Reinko Erica's Future mate and soon to be ruler of demon worlds west territories" he said politely to Solaria who glared at him

"nice to meet you my name solaria, girl who's about to kick your ass" she said while getting up

"I doubt you'll be kicking anyone's ass in your state" he said with a little laugh

"Erica I have to say I approve perhaps she'll be joining us in our mating hum" he said cockily while checking her out

"bastard" said solaria ready to kick his ass but Erica held her back

"I went to save the humans now let me pass" said Erica in a dull voice

'I don't think I can even stand much longer, I have no energy to fight this guy right now and Solaria would stand a chance ether. So it's best to let him win for now.

"that was all you had to say in the first place and if I see you with that Hiei guy again I'll have to punish you" he said with a smirk

'as if your presences alone isn't punishment enough' thought Solaria with fire in her eyes

'calm down Erica don't let him get to you you'll handle this later just go back to the arena' thought Erica as she resisted the urged to kill Rienko on the spot

She knew he was powerful but not sure how powerful and that was odd for her.

"that will be hard to do seeing as he is my team mate" she said as she made her way to the door.

"don't worry I'll work something out 'Mate'" he said with emphasizes on the mate

She ignored him again and continued walking while holding on to solaria

"damn Erica your father is by far the most evil person I Know" said Solaria

"tell me about it. And yet Koenma thinks he's a saint" she said as they got to the arena where there team was fighting they noticed that the boys were heading towards them

"solaria… I feel so weak right now" said Erica

"Me too. Imagine if I'd let you do it by your self" she said

"I think I'm going to pass out any minute now" said Erica

"And I'll be next." said Solaria

"so did you guys kick ass or what" said Solaria trying to appear fine despite herself

"yeah we won" said Kuwabara sounding kinda mad

"don't mind him he's just upset cause he didn't get to fight" said Yusuke with a huge cheese smile

"that's nice I'm going back to the suite guy" said Erica

'hopefully I make it' she thought

"what's that on your face?" asked Hiei

'damn it left a bruise' thought Erica

"nothing" she said nervously while heading to the door

"hn" said Hiei

'she looks so …"

"what are you not telling me?" he asked not caring if the others saw.

"You know what they say don't get involved in a lovers quarrel" said Yusuke as he left them and the others followed suite with Solaria picking up the rear.

"I.. Why would I keep something from you" she said quickly trying her best not to topple over in front of him she didn't like looking weak and Hiei might get mad if she told him what happened

"I don't know you tell me." he retorted

"look can we talk about this later this really isn't the place for this" she said while beginning to walk again only to be stopped by Hiei's embrace

"I'll carry you to a more suitable place to finish our conversation then" he said in her ear causing her to shiver.

Then he knelt down and she climbed on his back.

"no complains this time I told you, you enjoy it when I carry you" he said causing her to blush a little

"yeah I guess I do" said Erica

'that and I can barely stand' she thought

It was not to long that she was totally knocked out on Hiei's back

"Damn she's asleep" he said to him self heading towards her room

He put her on the bed and was and covered her with the blanket giving her a quick kiss on the forehead as he was about to make his departure; only to be stopped by Erica

"Stay" she mumbled groggily

"hn" he retorted noting that she hadn't even woke up

He took off his shoes and joined her on the bed blushing a bit when she snuggled closer to him

"warm" she said again with a smile

A few second letter she kissed his chest and uttered something that sounded like safe

It was only 3 in the afternoon so Hiei wasn't tired enough to sleep just yet he just watched over her sleeping . She looked so peaceful and happy in his arms he wished he could stay just like that forever.

"So Beautiful" he whispered while playing with her hair

He loved her like he has never loved anything before he didn't know why but he felt obligated to love her and protect her and to make her happy. It hurt like hell when he didn't he felt like the most horrible creature in the world and he had done his fear share of crime's still nothing compared to the guilt he felt when he hurt her. Never again though

'I always protect you' he thought kissing the top of her head which was now cushioned on his chest.

After about an hour he feel asleep to and at 8 she woke up not fully energized but very, very well rested (add a few more very(s) if you wish)

"Hiei" she whispered then blush at the position that they were in.

Then she noticed he was still asleep she watched him in amazement. 'He looked so different when he's asleep. So peaceful so content and so damn cute!' She thought

She was going to get up but he grabbed her tight and pulled her back down

"mine" he mumbled before he opened his eyes to met hers

"your awake now" she said with a smirk

"as are you. Are you going to tell me what happened now." he said

"no" she said looking away from him

"no? why not?" he said calmly

"because you'll get mad. I don't like it when you get mad." she said

"if I promise not to get mad will you tell me?" he asked again causing her to turn around with a surprised look on her face .

"Yes, but .." she started

"Fine I promise then" he interrupted

"okay so I went to save the people and they were nearly dead I could very well leave them like that so I healed them" she said while cringing

Hiei didn't look mad yet so she continued

"so after we left Reinko stopped me at the door and well one thing lead to another and he slapped me and I feel on solaria" she cringed again this time with good reason Hiei looked genuinely pissed off

"he what?" asked Hiei in a low voice

"he was mad cause I told him off and then he said don't let me catch you with Hiei or I'll punish you or something like that." she finished looking up at him only to see his aura flaring around him

"Is there more?" He said in the same low voice

"um Hiei remember you promised not to get mad" she said with a squeak

"Is there more?" he said with his aura flaring more

"no" she answered quickly

"you're not mad are you?" she asked trying not to cringe

"no" he answered

'pissed the fuck off is more like it when I get a hold of that bustard he'll wish his existence was terminated look ago' thought Hiei darkly

"Can I ask you a question?" asked Erica

"hn" he answered half heartedly

"when.. I mean if I die what will you do?" she asked

(well that's it for now review please 3 for the next chapter ttfn)
