The Shadows of Love
Chapter6:
As soon as they arrived in Egypt, arrows started to go after Hotaru. Hiei once again picked up Hotaru and moved quickly out of the way. "Thanks." Hotaru said as she was gently put down. Hiei nodded in return. "The reason why Kurama was able to break the force field, or so that's how we set it up. Anyways, the legend behind the force field is that only the one that is sleeping's true love can break the force field unless, you're me or my sisters and brother. The basic way of saying it is Kurama and my sister, Saku, are destined to be together. Although, I think there's a glitch in the field. The answer to your other question in the museum is, it had a magic shield where you can enter, but can't use magic to escape, and you're detected when you enter using magic or special abilities." Hotaru said out of nowhere. Hiei looked at her confused. "I sense anything and everything, we all can." Hotaru answered. Then they finally reached the tomb they quickly reached the cambers that the others were in. "What took you so long?" asked Saku. Hotaru didn't make eye contact. "Oh, I see. If it was him, then where is he?" Saku asked again. "Where he belongs." replied Hotaru in a cold, emotionless voice. "Let's awaken your sister already, you know I have a life to you know!" Yusuke said annoyed. Yusuke received a cold glare, from Hotaru. "You know I can change that you know." "Change what?" Yusuke asked sarcastically. "The life part." Hotaru replied. Yusuke rolled his eyes. "Well, we should hurry and revive Koharu. He's not the only one that wants to get out of here!" Saku said while trying to hurry Hotaru. "Before we can wake her we have to break the force field." Hotaru said annoyed. "How are you going to do that?" Kuwabara asked stupidly. Hotaru grinned mischievously, "What do you mean me?" Hotaru asked, then looked at Yusuke. "You think you're so bad let's see you break the force field." Hotaru told Yusuke. "What are you doing?" Saku asked angry. "What ever do you mean?" Hotaru asked smirking, while looking innocent. "If he isn't able to break the field, then he'll die, stupid!" Saku said while hitting Hotaru on the head, which was followed by a death glare from Hotaru. 'Don't you think I know that, I have a plan.' Hotaru said to Saku through telepathy, 'Oh, tell me.' 'No, you'll have to wait and find out.' Saku looked at Hotaru with the puppy dog look and sad eyes. Hotaru shook her head. Then Yusuke spoke up, "I'll break the force field, and I won't die!" Yusuke said smiling smugly. Yusuke walked over to the force field, the force field flickered and then disappeared. "Hah, what did I tell you." Yusuke bragged. "You fool, don't you know that I already knew that you were able to break it." Hotaru sneered. "Whatever, just wake up your sister and go." Yusuke replied. Hotaru glared, but walked over to Koharu and placed the gold crystal in the same spot that she did when reviving Saku. Then there was a blinding white light. When the light disappeared, a young looking girl with long gold hair with black tips and maroon eyes. The girl looked over at Hotaru and Saku. "Saku, Hotaru, how long have we been separated from this world?" Koharu asked. Saku looked like she was answer, but Hotaru answered first. "1,000 years." Hotaru answered. "Were you able to kill the person responsible for this, Hotaru?" Koharu asked. Hotaru shook her head, "But I do know where our brother is." Hotaru said angrily. "Where is he?" Saku asked. "He's right here." answered a voice. Saku looked over to where the voice came from. "Towamaru!" Saku squealed running over and hugging her brother. "So, you decided to come. Bad choice." Hotaru hatefully said to her brother. "Yeah, so I could explain to you why I did the things that I did." Towamaru said to his elder sister. "Fine, I'll give you a chance and if I don't like or you're lying than you're dead." answered Hotaru. Towamaru nodded, "What happened was while you guys were fighting, I was running from the minions of the dark lord. Then I met this guy that promised to save me from them in exchange for me helping him. But what I didn't know, was that he worked with the dark lord and since I accepted the offer that was made he let me live. They made me guard the Gold crystal from you. And when you came for it I had to pretend that I didn't want you to get it, or else he would have killed me. And if you don't believe me then, oh well." Towamaru explained. Hotaru nodded in agreement, but looked like she didn't want to agree. "What happened to mom and dad?" Koharu asked. Towamaru shrugged, "I haven't seen them since that night. I don't think they were killed, it would take a lot more then him to kill them." replied Towamaru. Hotaru nodded at that. "Tell us, who and what exactly are you?" Yusuke interrupted. "Well, you know are names, but we're goddesses. I'm the goddess of weather and lightness. Hotaru, is the goddess of ice and darkness. And Koharu, is part goddess of light and darkness. That's why she's so neutral, she's also the goddess of fire." Saku explained, "And our younger brother, Towamaru, is the god of water and electricity." Saku finished. "How old are you guys exactly?" asked Kuwabara. "Why do you want to know?" Hotaru asked coldly. Kuwabara shrugged. "Well, if you must know us three," Hotaru said pointing to her and her sisters, "We're 1,018 years old, and my brother is 1,017 years old." Hotaru said flatly...
