Hiei watched from above as the fight between Yusuke and Sensui started. Yukina said, "I'm going to help Botan and the others, they're being attacked."
"Nonsense," Hiei said, "if he wanted to hurt them he could. He's just distracting them...for some reason." She does have a point, it is odd how much their focusing on them, he thought.
Yukina ran to the door and said, "I'm leaving anyway!" She ran down the stairs of the building she was in and over to Kuwabara's apartment. There, Sniper was attacking Botan and Seaman through the window. Shizuru left to try to tell Yusuke and the others that Kuwabara was the one they wanted.
Hiei said to Kurama telepathically, This is a trap. Look out.
How can you tell? he asked.
A human and demon from their group are also out, it looks like they're waiting around for some kind of order or signal. I'm not sure what they're planning. Hiei replied.
The human Yusuke's fighting is a man named Shinobu Sensui, he was a spirit detective before Yusuke, Kurama said.
Hiei said, Damn spirit detectives. There's something strange about his power, it's like he's hiding it from himself.
Yusuke mentioned the same thing, Kurama replied, I don't sense a thing.
Hiei replied, Your senses are going dull.
Kurama started looking around and asked, Where are you so I can glare at you for that!
Kuwabara asked, "What are you looking for?"
"A fire imp," he answered coldly.
Hiei took a step back so Kurama couldn't see him. He watched as Sensui created a blast and had it promptly miss Yusuke and the group down there. He watched it's gejectory for Kuwabara's apartment, just as Yukina entered the room. That's the trap! he thought as he said, "Yukina!"
He ran over and managed to cut the blast in half, forcing the building to take most of the impact rather than the glass of the window. Then he jumped up and looked inside with his jagan. Yukina hit the ground as the room went white and the walls cracked from the pressure.
Once the blast disperced, he jumped back down to the balcony and ran into the room. Yukina slowly stood up and asked, "What just happened?"
"The trap has been sprung," Hiei said, "we need to get out of here."
"Wait!" she said, "Botan! She's trapped under that bookshelf." He turned around and saw the ferry girl completely knocked out. He lifted the shelf and threw it against the wall before grabbing his sister and leaving.
On the roof of another building, he put her down and looked around with his jagan uncovered. "That human and Toguro," he said, "they're moving. What are they planning?"
Yukina said, "I'm going to stay here and make sure Botan and Shizuru are okay. I passed her in the hall on the way up."
"Sensui's leaving," Hiei said, "I'm following him. Don't get hurt!"
"Same to you!" Yukina shouted as he jumped away.
Hiei followed the scene as everyone slowly became separated from each other. Kurama was held back by Sniper, then Kuwabara at the stairs as he went after Sensui. "Don't tell me," Hiei said as he watched Kuwabara get kidnapped, Yusuke completely oblivious, "why would they want him?"
They sped away in a truck and Sensui jumped into the back of it, leaving Yusuke in it's dust just in time for Kurama to see it with Keiko by his side.
Meanwhile on the otherside of town now, Yukina caught up with Shizuru, "You're injured!" She bent over at her slumped over body.
"Don't let them get Kazuma," she whispered.
Yukina began healing her shoulder and asked, "Why?"
"They want his power," she explained painfully, "he can cut down the kekai barrier with his new sword."
"His energy returned?" she asked, "When did that happen?"
"Just last night," she answered.
Hiei ran from rooftop to rooftop as he kept up with the group in a truck. In this city environment I'll never manage to get to them, he thought, then looked back and saw Yusuke on a bike.
The chase moved to the outskirts of town, and then out to the highway lined with mountains on one side and trees on another. Hiei saw Yusuke about to make his move but Sniper destroyed his ride. Guess it's my turn, Hiei thought as he jumped up.
He landed in the back of the truck in front of Sensui. "Hiei!" Kuwabara shouted, "Where have you been?"
"Who are you?" Sensui asked.
Gourmet asked, "Should I kill him?"
"Wait," Sensui said, "why are you here?"
Hiei looked at Kuwabara and asked, "I'm only going to ask this once, why should I rescue you?"
"Are you serious?" he demanded, "Just get over here and get me out of this weird binding already!"
"You mean you haven't noticed?" Hiei asked, "Those hands belong to Elder Toguro. Apparently he didn't die like we thought he did."
Kuwabara shouted, "No way! Get me out of here I don't want Toguro's freaky hands around me anymore. Let me go! Hiei bust me out of here!"
"If I was trapped like that I could easily escape," he said, "as could Kurama. Save yourself." He jumped back out of the truck bed and landed gracefully on a tree below.
"Darn you Hiei!" Kuwabara shouted.
Hiei looked back where Yusuke was and saw that he was in trouble with Sniper. He already lost his shirt and now was caught in his territory. Doesn't anyone know how to do anything around here? he asked himself, I can't believe he once defeated me. Hiei jumped through the trees and watched as Yusuke was chased by a giant fuel truck.
Just as Sniper caused it to explode Hiei grabbed Yusuke and pulled him out of there by the neck, then dragged him back to the mountain Sniper was standing on.
