"Why give us one week though?" Yusuke asked impatiently, " I mean, shouldn't we just go in now before we get second thoughts? Before I get second thoughts at least?" Koenma looked annoyed.
"Obviously you haven't been listening to a word I've been saying or you would understand why you have 7 days to prepare." Kuwabara scratched his head,
"Why are they waiting a week anyway, if they're so strong why don't they just go now?"
"I've heard of these men before, they're very strong, but not always. Its no surprise that they are waiting to strike." Kurama spoke softly.
"In seven says the moon is full." Hiei finished looking upward.
"Precisely." Kurama noted, "These demons draw their strength from the moon, when its full there powers skyrocket giving them endless supremacy compared to other lower leveled youkai." he sighed.
"And how are we supposed to beat that!? Its not like we can get special powers from stuff! I mean, well, Hiei's got his fire stuff, and Kurama's got those flowers and uh.well," Kuwabara noticed that everyone was staring at him. "Ok so maybe we do have some stuff." he trailed off and let the other continue.
"Can we get like, a guess of there power after these '7 days'?" Yusuke asked aggravated.
"S class." Koenma spoke sullenly.

The rest of the day seemed gloomy to everyone. Kurama tried hard to concentrate on his homework that was spilled across the desk in front of him. His brow furrowed as he pondered a rather easy algebra question, his mind clouded with thoughts other then math. The former Youko's head snapped up at a small rapping sound emitting from outside the window.
"It's unlocked Hiei, come in." he said going back over the question absently in his head. Hiei slid through the window gracefully and leaned up against the pane. He couldn't concentrate. Kurama threw down his pencil and tilted his chair backwards balancing on the two back legs.
"What's wrong?" he asked catching the lint of anger in Hiei's eyes. They were a darker red then usual and he seemed very pissed off according to his body language. Hiei straitened up and crossed his arms snorting irritably.
"That fool was right you know," Hiei spat, though he hated to admit it, "We don't have much of a chance when they are at their full power." Kurama sighed.
"I know that, but we still have time to."
"Now is not the time for that Kurama, 7 days isn't enough to prepare and you know it." Hiei cut him off and turned away angrily, "This is beyond stupidity." The exasperated fire demon sat down on the side of the bed brooding. Hiei was so lost in his own world at the moment he hadn't even heard the tap at the door. Kurama stood and opened it slightly and peered outside.
"Midori? How did you get in?" he said laughing and opened the door all the way. She looked confused.
"Your mother let me in," she said quietly. Kurama's eyes widened.
"She's home already?" he inquired.
"Already? Shuichi its almost 7:00 at night, where have you been." Kurama cocked an eyebrow and looked up at the wall at the clock.
"So it is." Kurama said softly. Hiei looked up, his head cradled in his hands.
"What the fuck do you want missy," He spat, "no one needs you here, just go home." Hiei ran his hands through his thick hair and cursed softly under his breath. Midori was taken aback. Last time she had seen him he hadn't barely spoken a word to her, and now he had the nerve to say that? Her face contorted furiously.
"What's your problem?" she argued, "last time I checked Shuichi was my friend as well." Hiei laughed coldly and Kurama winced. He most definitely didn't like where this was going.
"Shuichi? Ha! Some friend you are to him. You know nothing, so stay out of things that are over your head little girl."
"Hiei, please."
"Who's little? You damn ass-wipe, you're no taller then I am! Besides what do you mean 'over my head'" Hiei continued despite Kurama's pleas.
"You really don't know anything do you? Maybe I should enlighten you then." a taunting smirk played across his face. "Your little red-head friend here isn't what you think. The real Kurama is a cold-blooded, ruthless, murderer. "Hiei spat, sending Kurama an evil grin.
"Hiei stop!" Kurama demanded.
" A cunning thief, rapist, think of any malicious word, that's him. You little friend here is a demon known as none other than Youko Kurama. You would have never heard of him, no, Humans are so daft and ignorant. Your entire race should have been wiped out long ago before it was allowed to set foot on this earth. To make things short and understandable for such an unintelligent race, he's been lying to you for your entire, 'friendship'. Whoever Shuichi is, or was, is gone."
The sound of skin being slapped rung through the room. On Hiei's face was a large red mark, his neck twisted to the side from the force of the blow. Midori stood before him her armed outstretched and her body trembling from anger. She pulled her hand back and was about to hit him again. In a second Hiei caught her wrist and twisted it backwards.
"I wouldn't try that again if I were you." he growled. In both there eyes blazed an unmistakable anger.
"You liar!" Midori yelled ripping her arm free from his grasp. "Just shut up!"
Kurama had his face pressed against the cool glass of the window. His teeth were clenched shut, and his fists as well as they rested on the small white pane. Kurama's breathing was forced and it fogged a small part of the glass under his nose.
"It's true." Kurama said quietly. Midori looked at him shocked her mouth opened and closed as if to speak but no words came out. Hiei rolled his eyes and stepped back.
"Pitiful creatures really, that's all you humans are wasted space and wasted knowledge."
At that she jumped on him knocking him to the floor hard. Her knuckles were white from clenching his throat so hard. She began slamming his head down on the floor over and over again. Hiei was caught off his guard, and struggled greatly in getting the flailing girl off of him.
Due to his pride and honor, there was the obvious fact that Hiei wouldn't strike back. He could hardly breath her grip was so tight. Kurama ran after her trying to pull them apart but Midori's grip didn't weaken. She began to knee him in the stomach as well as strangle him, causing him to loose all hope in getting a breath in. Once Hiei had started coughing blood Kurama had found a way to pry her off of him, and he picked her up and shut her into the bathroom to let her calm down. At that he quickly turned to Hiei to make sure he was all right.
"Get off of me.." He spat wiping his chin clean. Hiei pulled himself up onto the bed and began to cough furiously. He rubbed his neck tenderly where two ugly, large bruises started to form.
