I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho so don't sue me. The only thing I can say is that I love Hiei!

Maya: The plot should come a bit more together in this chapter.

Dragon Child: That's good.

Maya: I know it's been a little confusing. OK. Let's get on with it.

**************************************************************************** **
Chapter 3

-Hiei's point of view.

-That happens every week. Maya's past haunts her all the time even though she doesn't know it. I walked out of the front door and stopped to look around. A few cars past. I looked inside one. There was a girl in the car talking on the cell phone.

--Didn't they realize? Didn't they realize how stupid they were? Many people suffered in this world and all they did was talk on their cell phones. Baka ningens.

-I walked down the street. The sky was a bit cloudy. The outline of the moon was still in the sky. I walked past Genki's temple. The tree was opened and Yukina was there. I climbed the tree and watched her.

--My darling sister. I still couldn't tell her. I didn't want her to know that she had me as a brother. She didn't deserve me as a brother. No one deserved me.

-I looked at my mother's tear gem on the necklace. It was all I really had besides weapons. It was something I treasured more then anything. My thoughts drifted to darkness.

-I sat up straight. Except I was somewhere else. I was in Koorime. I wouldn't call it a homeland. I would call it more of a death land. I stood up. I walked over to a cliff. My mother was there. My mother. I must have given her a great pain. I was a great pain. I closed my eyes and gritted my teeth. She looked at me with opened eyes. My eyes snapped open.

-"Mother . . . " I said.

-"Son. My Hiei... I love you." She said. She looked like Yukina.

-She turned toward the cliff. She looked back and smiles. Then, she looked down. She pulled out a knife and cut her wrists. She fell over dead.

-I closed my eyes again.

-"MOTHER!!!..." I shouted. I breathed hard and looked around. Yukina was gone. I was still sitting in the tree.

-I winced from the pain inside my heart and a tear gem fell to the ground. I caught it in my hand and looked at it with wide eyes. What was this gem worth? Nothing. Not even a cent. Not even half.

-I got off the tree and threw the tear away. It landed on the sidewalk. It didn't break. I wish it did. I walked up to the hills over looking the city. I stared at them. I held back tears of misery. I walked away. Away from the two things that I love. I didn't know if I would come back either.

-Maya's point of view.

-Where is Hiei? He hasn't been here the whole day. It's 10:00 PM and I haven't seen him the whole day. After he came down stairs he disappeared. Kurama said he went for a walk or something. Hiei. Err. Tell me next time you leave for the day. I'm going to find him.

-I walked all over town in the speed of lightning. (A/n; If you didn't know, Maya is as fast as Hiei.) I came by Genki's temple. I sensed a bit of Hiei's presence. He was here for a while. I walked up the stairs.

-"What brings the moody one to my door?" Genkai asked as I came up the stairs.

-"Have you seen Hiei?" I asked quickly.

-"The possessed one? No. I haven't seen him." Genkai said.

-"Where's Yukina?" I asked.

-Genkai pointed and I followed her direction. I walked into the room. Yukina was now sitting on her bed looking into her thoughts.

-"Yukina. Have you seen Hiei?" I asked quickly.

-"Hiei-san? Why would I see him?" Yukina asked.

-"I don't know, but..." I sat on the bed deep in worry, "He's missing. I felt his presence somewhere around here. I'm so worried."

-"You really love him Maya." Yukina said.

-"More than anyone will ever know." I said with a faint smile.

-Yakima's point of view.

-Hiei-san was here. Well, I did feel something. What?? It couldn't be true. Hiei. My brother. My brother Hiei. I should have known before now. Maya and me... we love him. Where is he?

-"Yukina, I need to find him." Maya said, "If you see him tell him to find me, and if he doesn't listen, tell me."

-I nodded. Hiei. My brother.

-Hiei's point of view.

-I walked through a bamboo forest. The world seemed to be resting itself on me. I was getting awfully tired. I collapsed on the ground by a bamboo plant, which was sticking up. I leaned against it. Maya. Yukina. I love you both.

-I woke up and the sunrise was coming. It seemed much colder than ever. Very cold. This wasn't were I fell asleep. There was ice.

-I stood up. I walked out of a forest. I looked down. There was a town there. Oh no. This town was a bit familiar. I remembered exactly. This was Koorime. This was the town in which I was cast away from. This was the town in which I was known as the forbidden child.

-I walked down to the town shaking. I walked through the town to the Cemetery. On my way there every one stopped and stared. I looked around.

-"The Forbidden child!" a child shouted. I looked at the child. It backed away to her mother. The street was cleared with people standing in there doors watching.

-I turned the corner. There was the Cemetery. A women was kneeling at a grave. I stared at the stone in the middle. It said, "Hina".

-I felt myself step forward though I didn't want to. Those painful memories haunted me always, but now it was almost too much to bear. Did anyone have a dagger? That's right, I did.

-I took out the dagger slowly and put it to my arm. The blade started to pierce my skin. The salvation in which I had been waiting for... and Muruko wasn't there to stop me.

-"Hiei." I turned.

-There was a masked women. Her face was covered much like the masked fighter's. Who was this? How did they know me? She had the same pink eyes that Yukina had.

-"Who are you?" I asked.

-"Come with me." She commanded.

-"No." I told her.

-She took my arm and pulled me away from my mother's grave. She pulled me out of the town and to a cave north of it. As we stepped in she said, "Hiei. So the famous child has returned."

-"Who are you?" I asked again.

-As she took of her bandages I noticed that she had blue hair. She looked exactly like Yukina!

-"My son. I am Hina. You mother." She said. No. No. My mother is dead. That can't be true. She's lying.

-"Your-r lying." I told her. "My mother is dead."

-"No Hiei. My Hiei. She lives, and I am she. You see, I faked my own death so that I could find you if you survived. Hiei, the council in which told us to kill you was dumb. They still exist today, of course they think I'm dead."

-"No." I said. "You can't be..."

-You may believe that for now if you wish..." She put the bandages back on. "You must be hungry."

-"Not really."

-"How did you find your way back here?" She asked.

-"Hn." I said.

-"Hiei." She said, "Speak to me. I love you."

-"No. Maya loves me." I said.

-"Who is Maya?" She asked with a sweet and caring voice.

-I got up and started to walk away. She appeared in front of me in the blink of an eye. She wasn't as fast as I was, but she was close.

-"HIEI!" She shouted. "Sit down. We have much to talk about."

-"Depends if I listen." I said. I turned around and sat down. She
appeared in front of me.

-"Hiei, I know how much pain you've had to have in your life. Let me
try to help you." she said.

-"Hn. No one can help me." I said.

-"Don't say that," she said.

-"Hn."

-Maya's point of view.

-"Oh no." I said.

-"What?" Kurama asked.

-"I have to go. If you don't see me or Hiei for a while do not be surprised." I said.

-"Why? What? Where has he gone?" Kurama asked.

-"Kurama, he's gone to Koorime." I said. My eyes were huge.

-"What?" Kurama asked stunned.

-"I need Boton." I said.

-A couple of hours later I was in Koenma's office. He was complaining about something. It had to do with Hiei and his hat. Don't ask me what it was about. I really wasn't listening.

-"Ok. Koenma. Do you know where Boton is or not?" I asked. He gave me a blank look.

-"You weren't listening to a word I was just saying were you?" He said.

-"No Koenma, because frankly, I DON'T CARE!" I yelled, "The only thing I car about right now is finding Hiei, ok."

-"Hiei's gone?" Koenma asked.

-"Yes! Where is Boton!?" I asked, yelled.

-The door opened and Boton was standing there.

-"Oh, Hello Maya. What brings you... oh." Boton said starting off in a cheerful voice.

-"Do you know how to get to Koorime?" I asked.

-"As a matter of fact... I do." She said with a smile.

-"Take me." I said quickly.
