The Fiery Water Demon

As soon as Kurama stepped out of the room, Hiei jumped trough the window. Marcella was awake at the time but wanted to wait until everyone was gone so she would not have to face any boys until tomorrow. Hiei walked over to the bedside and did something surprising.

He kissed her.

But what surprised her more is the way he kissed her. He gave her a passionate kiss full of love and he kissed her softly and tenderly. After he broke the kiss, he went back out the window for the second time that day.

After he left, Marcella shot up in bed and put a shaky hand on her lips. "You can't fall in love with me Hiei, for my sake and for yours. I will hurt you to save you." She whispered with a determined look in her eyes, but then let go a yawn. "Tomorrow." Was the last thing she said before she dropped back down on the bed in a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, out on some tree, Hiei was pondering the reasons why he kissed her. ' Well that's easy, I love her. Although I would never admit it. I mean who couldn't love her. She was pretty, no beautiful, she had a kind personality, and a fiery temper. Like a Fiery Water Demon.' Hiei chuckled 'That's ironic. But, even if I did love her and she loved me, which I highly doubt, I could never be selfish enough to get mixed up with a guy like me. She could be killed. No, I will not endanger her life just because of my stupid human feelings. The sad thing is I have to let another girl out of my dangerous life, just like Yukina, and she never knew either. And I will never tell her. Neither of them.'

He vowed, before he left to go talk to the man who also wanted Marcella's heart. But only one would get it.

As soon as Marcella decided to get up and go out the door, Kurama decided to make his entrance. He closed the door behind him locking both of them in the room. "We need to talk." He said as he backed her up against the wall. "I was afraid of that." Marcella said.

He was so close she could feel his body heat against hers. She gulped and asked, "What do we need to talk about." She dreaded the answer. "We need to talk about us. I know you were awake when I kissed you." He said. "So, you gave me a friendly kiss. What's the big deal?" She asked. "It was more that a friendly kiss." Kurama told her as his eyes flashed golden and his hair, silver. "What do you mean?" Marcella stared to get scared now because he was fully transformed into the Yoko and he was leaning down to meet her lips. "You will find out soon enough."

And that was the last thing said as he bent down and kissed her. Hard.

'This is nothing compared to all the love Hiei put in his kiss.' She
thought as tears sprung to her eyes, for she knew what the Yoko was
going to do to her. But she still fought it.

She punched him and punched him some more. But it was no use. She
did the only thing that came to mind, she bit him. He broke the kiss,
grabbed her by her wrist, and threw her on the bed. Her eyes widened
as she saw she had only angered him more.

"You stupid little wench." He said as he began ripping off her
clothes. 'Wench huh? That's the same thing Hiei called me when he
was angry with me.' She mused. He kept up what he was doing, until
she was only in her silky black undergarments.

He went down even lower, and that's when she stared kicking and
screaming. "I won't help because yo-." Yoko started but was cut off
by a blow to the stomach, by an unseen force. But Marcella knew
exactly what that force was and ran to it.

"Thank You, so much Yuskue." She thanked as she nuzzled her head against his chest. "Welcome. Now lets get you out of here." He said as he walked over to Kuwabara at the front door. He gave her his long white jacket as him and Yuskue walked her to her room. "Thanks again." She said as they reached the door. "Anything for one of our best friends." Yuskue said as each of the boys kissed one of Marcella's cheeks.

Marcella went into her room and turned on the waterworks. And that's how Botan found her that same morning, sporting tear swelled eyes and a flustered face, she spilled out her whole story. After Botan left Marcella just remembered, she forgot to tell Botan something.

She forgot to tell her not to tell Hiei.

~*~ Is it me or things are heating up. We now start to see the formation of a luv triangle. Kurama loves Marcella, Hiei Loves Marcella, and Marcella loves Yuskue!? Oh, she doesn't, but then why in the world is she following him everywhere he goes. Find out all this and more in the next chapter of: The Fiery Water Demon
