prompt: dancing in the dark

Full Moon

The Mirror is activated, my wish is made, and there is no going back now.

The Detective is yelling something at me, but I can't hear him. Hiei is screaming inside my mind, holding my spirit as close to his as he can get. I know what this is doing to him, but it's a risk I have to take. Maybe later I'll have the chance to explain – assuming Hiei doesn't kill me himself.

Suddenly the drain on me stops. I open my eyes in time to see Yusuke Urameshi tell the Mirror to use his own life to grant my wish.

I protest as I am supposed to do, but I can't completely hide my smirk. I don't know if the Detective acted in time – hell, I don't even know if the Mirror will grant such an exchange.

But this is what I was waiting for. This is what I was hoping would happen.

I may survive this after all.

AN: This is the point where you should go back and read ch 2 of Rekai Heist if you wanna see Hiei's reaction to this little stunt. Next chapter picks up after Rekai Heist
