Spells of Love
Chapter 3: Koenma, and Hiei
Little Hiei lay peacefully inside his carry basket as he was set down, and remained so until later that afternoon..... "WILL YOU SHUT THE KID UP?!!!!!!!", Koenma yelled over Hiei's wailing.
That's when Hiei managed to escape the ogre's grasp, and crawled over to Koenma's desk, thus able to reach Koenma's binki! (I am sooo mean, aren't I?) So he grabbed right up, and stuck it in his own mouth. "Hey, get back here with my binki!!!!!!", Koenma yelled.
Hiei sat, and gave the other child- like person a puzzled look, took the binki out of his mouth and.... "No.", Hiei stated promptly.
When Koenma's face turned beat red, Hiei decided he liked that sound, thus continued to repeat it. Eventually, Hiei stuck the binki back into his mouth, and crawled for the library. "NO HIEI, NOT THERE!!!!!!!", Koenma yelled, as he skidded to a halt right in front of the door into it.
Koenma walked in, and looked left, then right, but there was no Hiei. "Bwaaaaa!", he heard the infant's babbling.
Koenma looked up, Hiei was innocently crawling on top of very highly stacked, and unstable books. "NO! HIEI! NO!", Koenma yelled.
"What shall I do, sir?", one org asked.
"GET THAT BABY!!!!!!!!", Koenma stated, pointing at Hiei.
"Yes, sir.", the org stated, quickly obeying.
...
After Koenma caught Hiei, and pried the binki from him, and gave him back to Kurama the next morning, the spells effects started to wear off, but slowly. Kurama lay in bed, with Hiei snuggled in his arms protectively, as a glow took over the infant's body.
...
When Kurama woke, he looked down at Hiei, and in shock, Hiei was just a kid, not a baby, but a- a kid! Kurama sat there and gently stroked Hiei's hair, was the spell wearing off? That had to be it, it was wearing off. First, Hiei's violet third eye opened, followed by the other two. Hiei didn't have on any clothing, Kurama had just left him wrapped in a blanket. The third eye closed, but the other two, round, sparkling crimson orbs looked curiously at Kurama. "Who are you?", Hiei asked, his voice sounded soft, curious, different from being usually harsh, and cold.
Hiei looked about himself, interested in everything he saw, the phone, the laptop computer, even the television was new to the young demon. He took it all in, the electric lights, the microwave. "Where am I?", Hiei asked Kurama.
"The human world.", Kurama stated.
"Are you a human?", Hiei asked, head cocked.
"Not precisely. I am a fox- demon spirit in a human body.", Kurama stated.
"Oh.", Hiei's already large eyes, grew wider with surprise.
...
Eventually, Kurama had managed to dress Hiei in a dark purple t- shirt, black shorts, along with his now tightened white bandana to cover the third eye for the day, it was the only things that would fit the small demon. Hiei looked fearfully at everyone that they passed on the sidewalks, and wanted to run, but instead clutched to Kurama, burrowing his face into Kurama's jacket at all the people. Kurama rang Yusuke's doorbell, and waited for the teen to answer it. "Yeah, Kurama?", Yusuke asked.
Hiei tried to hide behind Kurama's legs, but Yusuke noticed him. "I need you to look after Hiei while I go try to find some information on those loose demons from Koenma, if that's okay with you, Yusuke.", Kurama stated.
"Sure, I can look after him.", Yusuke stated merrily.
"Thanks, just give me a second to talk to him, okay?", Kurama stated.
Kurama turned to Hiei, and knelt down to the fire demon's level, "Now Hiei, this is Yusuke, he's a friend of mine, and won't harm you, understand?", Kurama stated, gently.
Hiei shyly nodded, and Kurama turned back to Yusuke. "Okay, Hiei you're going to stay with him while I go take care of some very important stuff.",
Hiei shyly walked inside with Yusuke, not saying anything as Yusuke shut the door. Hiei looked around, 'This place is boring.', he thought to himself, until he noticed the fish tank.... (Note I do not own Jungle 2 Jungle, that is Disney.) 'I was getting hungry anyway.', Hiei thought.
...
Yusuke had made the mistake of leaving Hiei alone for just a second. And came back to find Hiei eating the char- broiled fish...
...
"I'm sorry, I didn't know humans kept fish for pets.", Hiei apologized, head hanging.
"It's okay, I guess, they were just gold fish.", Yusuke stated.
"They were gold?", Hiei stated, confused.
"No, that's just what type of fish they are, like a name for the ones that are all the same.", Yusuke stated, "Anyway I should have known you would get hungry, I made some pizza that we'll eat.",
"What's pizza?", Hiei asked.
"Um... A human food, but demons can eat it too.", Yusuke explained.
"Okay!", Hiei nodded.
So, they both sat, and ate pizza for dinner, later that evening Kurama showed back up, and headed home, with Hiei. They were about halfway there when the renegade demons showed up. Kurama quickly pulled out his rose whip, and kept a protected arm in front of Hiei. The others laughed madly at this, and stood for attack. One managed to get behind Kurama, and grabbed Hiei by his arm.
(Here comes some serious deepening of plot, so follow closely, this is also the reason the second type this story is general, not because I couldn't come up with one, just because I know I change some things inside my fics.)
Hiei screamed, and tugged, and cried out... "Kurama! Kurama!", Hiei repeated over, and over, "LET ME GO!!!!!!!"
In a sudden charge of spirit energy, Hiei took a different form, not his usual green skinned one, no, this one was much stronger, though Hiei was just a kid at the moment. Hiei gained a pair of black, bat- like wings, and the enemy seemed to burst into a fiery blossom of flame as the transformation was completed. Hiei gained sharp claws, and spikes down the center of his back. Hiei destroyed the enemy, some got away, but Hiei had stopped them, from taking him away. Hiei fell to his knees, and Kurama rushed to him, quickly catching the child in his arms. "Hiei, change back, okay?", Kurama asked, gently.
"I- I can't... I don't know how to...", Hiei whispered.
"It's okay, we'll figure out how to together.", Kurama promised.
So, Kurama carried Hiei the rest of the way... But what was this other transformation? This other, stronger form of Hiei? These questions needed answers, and that was why... Kurama was going to ask Koenma for some help.
...
Hiei had turned back to normal, but still child, by morning... Whatever he had used to summon that change, had left. He was really worn out from it too. Kurama could see how too, it had to of took a lot of energy to go into that form, even more so for just a kid. Hiei sat now, being questioned, and studied. Koenma had been searching the library inside out for any information at all, and Kurama had just tried to be patient. Eventually, his patience did pay off. "I've got something!", Koenma declared, "It's very old, trust me, but it has what we've been looking for!",
"What is it, then?", Kurama asked, politely.
"It says here that there was another race of demons that are now extinct, they were dragon like creatures with large amounts of power.", Koenma explained, "Obviously, Hiei has some of their blood inside himself."
"It makes sense now.... Whomever wants him... Whomever has been after Hiei, knows all about this.. That's why they've been after him.", Kurama thought out loud.
"The change must have been brought on by emotions, they are a great factor for demon children to take to their other forms.", Koenma added.
"Yes, it all makes sense.", Kurama admitted.
There was a long silence, like one of those ones where you don't dare disturb it, then... "But how do we know for sure?", Kurama asked.
"Anyone with the blood of these.... Dragon demons, should have a mark down the spine of their upper back....", Koenma explained.
Kurama looked at Hiei, who sat, looking innocently at the larger adults who stood, prodding and poking... Hiei just smiled, and nodded, and answered.
After a couple seconds, Koenma, and Kurama entered. When asked, Hiei took off his shirt. The two's eyes widened...... The mark of the dragon demon's blood was there, on Hiei's back....
End Chapter: Good twist on plot, right, more later, ja for now!
