Wings of A New Life
Chapter 3
Hiei looked at Yukina as she gently touched Hiei's wings, it tickled him a little the way she did it too. Kurama was just explaining to Yusuke, and Kuwabara what had been done to Hiei. Of course, Kuwabara couldn't help but come forward and try to see if Hiei could avoid a punch. Kuwabara took it instead, though. "You should be rather careful of Hiei at the moment though, his wings haven't had the chance to strengthen up against blows like that.", Kurama explained, "You could have broken one cleanly off.",
While Hiei glared at Kuwabara, Yukina tended poor Kurama's now swelling cheek. "It's nice to see you can hold still during something like this.", Yukina replied, "There all done.",
"So, you've become an angel?", Yusuke asked.
Hiei nodded slightly, "It was the only option to me at the moment.",
"I see, so, when do you gain any power? If at all?", Yusuke asked.
"Once I learn to fly.", Hiei told him, "I also have to go to heaven to talk with someone in charge there.",
"Koenma said that part won't be as easy as it looks.", Kurama interrupted, "You see, demons and angels have been at war with each other even before Koenma came to power in the spirit world.",
"What kind of a war?", Yusuke asked.
"One that has hurt both sides, and has been a long, on and off type of thing", Kurama explained, "So, the demons are against Hiei for becoming an angel, and the angels more than likely are against any angel who was once a demon themselves.",
"No matter whether the two are divided from the same basic creature.", Hiei spoke up, "We are all linked back to one, basic creature, it could fly, yet, it built it's home underground.",
"So, they're fighting over nothing.", Kuwabara said, "It's only sibling rivalry if you really think about it.",
"I guess you're right for once, but then again, your the only one among us with a sister old enough to be trouble.", Yusuke blurted, "And who's weak enough to be beaten up by her.",
"Hey!", Kuwabara exclaimed.
Hiei looked at him with mild surprise, "You have a sister?",
"Yeah, and she's older than me.", Kuwabara said.
"Hiei we better meet up with Koenma, and get up to heaven with you.", Kurama said, simply.
So, the two left there, heading to see Koenma....
.....
"Well, as I see it, going up there to register as one of them. Kurama, they respect you for changing your ways, so, you may help escort Hiei around there.", Koenma said, "Now, here is something I believe will come in very handy. This is a bracelet of the winds, and light.",
"Why would we need that?", Hiei asked, mildly shocked.
"Well, you are angels, of which are of light. There are certain beasts, and mind, not all demons who pursue to kill beings of light.", Koenma continued, "Most of those of light are very powerful, however, you are like a young child in those terms at the moment, this bracelet will enable you to protect yourself.",
"I see.", Kurama said, "Then there are other beings other than those of the three worlds?",
"Those of before creation.", Koenma explained, "The demons and angels descended from one of them, then, you have the creatures of darkness, and the ones that started life along. Many more that are unknown exist as well, but, do avoid them at all costs.",
"I see, come Kurama, we better get going.", Hiei said, turning to go.
"I have opened the most direct route I could for you.", Koenma spoke, "It is the staircase in the west wing, Botan will lead you there. Once to the top, you will check in with Salidia, an arch angel of first class security measures of heaven, got it?",
"Yes, and thank- you.", Kurama said.
(Quick note: For reference on Salidia refer to New Beginnings! Or it's sequel!)
So, the two climbed the white, marble, spiraling stairs up towards the sky, however, they didn't stop, or seem to. Rather, the stairs kept going higher, and higher up. Until, they reached a doorway directly in the sky. Hiei, and Kurama pushed it open, and walked through. There, standing in the middle of the room, was a desk, everything in the room was the same, bright white. Except for the receptionist's dress. "May I be of assistance?", she asked.
"Um, yes. We have an appointment with a Salidia Wingfeather, for Hiei, and Kurama. We were sent here by Koenma.", Kurama added.
"Hiei, and Kurama, huh? Okay. H.... H..... H.... Ha.... Hempker..... Hess...... Hiati..... Hiei, and Kurama, here we go! Ah, yes you do, and it says here you don't know how to fly yet, so....",
She turned around and whistled, and a couple chairs came flying down. Each scooped Kurama and Hiei up, then, they were off zooming up, and up.... Then into an office, which was also white. And a nice, young looking woman sitting on it, while talking on a small cell phone. "Now, Heero, don't panic.", Salidia said, "I know the couch just at the chair... But, it's a natural process for living things, which you accidentally turned them into. I understand, but, listen, use the caging spell on page sixteen of your manual.", a pause then, "No, you'll do fine on it, even a little cherub could handle that spell, and you're a chronos for Peter's sake, one of only two angels to reach that status. Don't worry, I promise that that'll be the first thing that I handle when I get home, kay? All right, Mommy loves you, bye!",
"Hi, we were sent to....", Kurama started.
"See me, Hiei, and I take it the flaming red- headed cutie is Kurama....", Salidia said, "Here, first before we start, Hiei you have to fill all of these out, and Kurama as his temporary charge, you have to fill these out.",
End Chapter: Um.... Let us give them a few days to fill all of those out! Hiei: (Sweatdrop) You have got to be kidding me! This stuff is as thick as at least the earth's core!
Kurama: Um..... Why do I have to fill my name out five hundred times?..... It doesn't make any sense.....
