Nakoruru (dancing around): We're up to chapter eight! But I don't know
what this chapter will be about.
Blazer: Isn't it Rinka's turn to write this chapter?
Nakoruru: Yeah, I wrote the last two chappies. She says she has plans to work in for this chappie. So I guess we sit back and let her work her magic.
Rinka (winks): You guys won't be disappointed. Now reviews!
Eo, thanks! Glad it gets better all the time.
The Masked Mistress, yes it was cute, huh! But we don't think Hiei will be too choosy. He can split his time and affections; at least we hope he can. And yes, it will be funny to see Kuwa-chan's face when he finds out!
Lethal Purple Crayon, yes very Hiei/Serena. *sniff sniff* So beautiful.
Lady Love. . .Keiko bashing? Yeah, that might be nice, but we do need her for an upcoming chapter and all. Sorry.
Kayla, glad she took a liking to him too. Things are much easier for us this way. ^ ^
Bunnychu, yeah, Rini is cuter, but you also got to realize that right now. We're positive that when she gets older, she will be the pink haired terror that everyone knows her to be. Especially if Hiei's going to raise her. Oh, and in that particular manga episode, he was under Wicked Lady's control, which was why he kissed her. And we would love to read your Yu-Gi- Oh stuff! You can probably find a review from us this week!
Anime Princess, fun fact you may not know, but in 1999 Naoko Takeuchi did marry Yoshihiro Togashi, the guy that made Yu Yu Hakusho, so maybe it was some sort of subconscious thing that she thought Hiei had cool eyes and all when she was making Sailor Moon! Or maybe something like that. We may never know.
Nicole, you're very welcome for the update. And now you get more!
Nakoruru: Now that my co-writer is done, let's get to work and let's not mind her theory of the Rini's birth. Even though I should have made them. . .oh well, on with the story!!

Yusuke sat in the park with Keiko and his daughter Emi. He watched the two playing in the sandbox, but his mind was far off. He was still worried about the others. He knew they could take care of themselves, but that foreboding feeling he was having would not go away. It kept gnawing at his insides like a dull saw. Yusuke closed his eyes, resting his head on the back of the bench. He wished he had some way of contacting them. He did not like being able to know what was going on.
"Yusuke, are you okay?" Keiko's soft voice brought him back to reality. He found that Keiko had seated herself on the bench beside him, looking at him with concerned brown eyes. Yusuke tried to force a smile on his face, but it fell when he saw the look that Keiko was giving him.
"Yeah. . .I'll be fine," Yusuke said in a sort of off tone. "Just thinking, that's all."
"About?" Keiko inquired. "That girl?"
Yusuke didn't need to ask her what girl she was referring to. He knew she meant Lita. Yusuke shook his head. "I'm worried."
"Worried? About?"
"The guys. . .and Botan. Something doesn't feel right. I've felt it ever since they left. I've tried to be at ease, but I can't. Something's going to happen to one of them. I think it's Hiei, but I'm not sure," Yusuke said, confiding in his wife. Keiko gave him a slight frown.
"Is something going to happen to him?" Keiko wondered.
"I don't know. Honestly, I don't know," Yusuke said. "I wish I knew."
"I know!" The voice of his daughter brought Yusuke to look at her. The little girl was looking up at him with a bright smile on her face. "I know, otou-chan! I know! I know! I know!"
"Emi? How do you know?" Keiko said.
"I dream it in my head!" chimed Emi with pride. "Saw Uncle Hiei and lady with wings. They were fighting and then the lady with wings was crying and then she was glowing. She was very sad cause something that Uncle Hiei did."
Yusuke remained quiet for a long minute, as he stared in amazement at his daughter. Koenma had told him that his children would inherit a lot of power from him, but he would have never thought that she would be able to dream see at such an early age. Finally, Yusuke found his voice. "Emi, did you see anything else?"
The little girl shook her head rapidly, causing her curls to shake. "I couldn't see everything. It was really fuzzy." Emi looked a bit sad as she stared at her father. "Uncle Hiei be fine. . .right, otou-chan?"
Yusuke forced a smile on his face as he stood up and walked over to where his daughter was. Ruffling her hair, Yusuke nodded. "Yeah. He'll be fine. He's way strong. Nothing will happen to him."
"Okay! Then we no worry." Yusuke hoped that Hiei would be fine. This feeling he had was getting worst. If what his daughter dreamed was true. . .no. . .he wouldn't think that way. He hoped that whatever sort of premonition his daughter had would turn out to be wrong. For everyone's sake.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * * * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hiei looked down at the little girl in his arms that was nodding off. He moved one of his hands to gently brush the hair from out of her eyes as he secured her more as he walked with Serena to put Rini in her room for a nap. The two walked up a small flight of stairs that led to the little girl's room. They reached the room within another minute. Serena pushed open the door and led Hiei to the small bed that was Rini's. Hiei placed the little girl on the bed and stood back, watching as she slept. There was something sort of magical about the whole thing.
Serena smiled softly, looking at Hiei as he watched Rini sleep. She could see how fond he was of the little girl. How his eyes were the softest of crimsons as he studied the small girl. She could even make out the small smile that rested on his lips. Serena grasped his hand in hers and latched her fingers in his. She watched as Hiei turned his eyes to her. "It's wonderful isn't it? Watching as she sleeps so soundly without a care in the world. It just is makes you want to protect her forever."
"I will protect you both," Hiei replied without hesitation. "I will never let anything happen to either of you."
"Hiei." Serena rested her head on his shoulder, but squeaked in surprise when she felt herself being lifted into his arms. She saw a sly smile rise to his lips as he started to walk out the room to where Serena's bedroom was. "Hiei? What are you-" Serena was silenced by a passionate kiss that drove her senses over the edge. She submitted to the kiss's demand as Hiei continued to Serena's room. In no more than half a minute, the two were back in Serena's room. In no time, Serena found the bed under her head and Hiei over her. He broke the kiss to look at her with ardent flamed eyes.
"I thought that we could finish where we started earlier," Hiei murmured into her ear as she giggled.
"Then you might want to lock the door so no one can walk in on us," Serena said, feeling Hiei kiss her neck softly.
"That would help to keep from killing everyone today." Hiei got up and locked the door, then went back to Serena. Serena watched as he stripped out of his shirt, then sit on the bed beside her. Serena sat up, letting Hiei undo her blouse and let him drop it to the ground. She closed her eyes; becoming overwhelmed by his touch on her skin as he also removed her bra. Within only two minutes, they were both naked.
(Rinka's note: Just to let you know, this story will stay PG-13. So everyone can still read this story and rest assured that I will not go into deep details.)
Serena kissed Hiei once again, submitting to his gentle touch on her bare skin. Feeling his lips sear her flesh with hot passionate kisses. Serena opened her blue eyes, looking up at the male that was kissing her neck, causing her to lose all control over her senses. "Hiei. . .take me now."
Just as Hiei was about to consummate the act, there came a knock on the door. "Serena." The voice belonged to Hotaru, the youngest of the outer senshi. "I don't mean to disturb you. But your parents and younger brother are here to see you." Hiei swore silently, knowing that she would go. Hiei got from on top of her and began picking up their clothes.
"I'll be there in a minute, Hotaru," Serena called.
"Okay, I'll tell them," Hotaru said as she left. Serena turned her eyes to Hiei who was putting back on his clothing after tossing her clothing to her.
"Hiei-" Serena begun, but Hiei had walked back to the bed and kissed her again passionately. When she pulled back, she found a light smile on his lips.
"There are other times for that. Your family is more important right now," Hiei said.
"I want you to come meet them. I want them to know all about you and everything. They know about me and the other senshi," Serena said as she pulled on her clothing. Once the two were dressed, they headed downstairs to where Serena's parents and younger brother were waiting in the pallor. When she appeared with Hiei by her side, her family was surprised.
"Hello, mother, father, Sammy," Serena said. Her mother smiled at her, then turned to look at Hiei.
"You're Raye's friend aren't you? How have you been?"
"I'm fine," Hiei replied with a slight nod.
"Um. . .mother. . .father. I have something to tell you that I never told you. The truth is that Hiei's not a childhood friend of Raye's. Hiei and the other one that was with him last time. . .they are from another dimension. In their dimension they are called youkai, or demons. Hiei is a fire demon and was sent here the first time because he was fighting a demon that sent him to this dimension. The others and I helped him last time to get back to his own dimension. He came back this time to help me defeat my new enemy," Serena said. There was silence as she let the information sink in.
"A demon? But. . .he looks so nice and sweet," Serena's mother said.
"Cool," Sammy said.
"That's not all. I. . .Hiei and I are in love. He's promised to protect Rini and I. I know you think that Darien was a good choice, but he was not what you thought of him. He cheated on me and was a complete jerk. I want you to accept Hiei because no other man will ever occupy my heart like he will."
"You're in love with a demon?" Serena's mother looked at Hiei and frowned, but after a minute, she broke into a motherly smile. "If he's promised to protect you and Rini then he must be a wonderful person. I'm happy for you both. And you have my blessings. Right, honey."
"Of course," Mr. Tsukino said. "I'm sure he is a very nice demon."
"To be honest with you," Hiei started. "I use to not like humans. I thought you were all a bunch of worthless insects. I've stole many things and killed many individuals over the years that I was in the Demon World." He caught the looks on Serena's parents' faces as they stared at him. "But I have changed. Over the years that I've lived in the Human World, I've learned about a lot of things. Your daughter has also taught me much. I can assure you that I will do nothing to harm her and I only want what's best for her and Rini now."
"I. . ." Serena's father didn't know what to say. "Honey?" Mr. Tsukino looked over at his wife who was looking at Hiei. The smile on her face did not waver as she stood up and hugged Hiei.
"Thank you for telling us the truth about you. You seem like a very dear person. I would be honored to have you as a son-in-law in the future, Hiei," Mrs. Tsukino said.
"Thank you," Hiei said.

"Lady Kurata, what are you thinking?" Athrun walked up to his mother's chair as she sat with several dark hulking figures surrounding her. "Mother?"
The woman turned her gold-green eyes to him. "Athrun, my son, you don't remember the time before we woke up do you?"
The young man gave her a curious look. What was she getting at by asking him? Of course he did not remember the time before he was awaken from his dark endless sleep by the power of his mother. He had only been a little boy when he had been put into that horrendous state of existence. "Mother, you know that I don't remember what things were like before we were put to sleep. Why do you ask me that question? What is on your mind, Lady Kurata?"
"What I'm getting at my dear beloved son, is that the time before we went to sleep was a joyous one. I want that again for us. Once we obtain the power of the Silver Crystal, we will make another Silver Millennium. Only there will be no Queen Serenity to stop us from doing what we want. This world will be our kingdom to rule how we please. I think that it's about to take the next step," Lady Kurata said.
"But my lady. The two males. . ." Athrun started.
"Do not worry about them. Your goal is not to capture Neo Queen Serenity. I want you to capture the male that Selsus fought. I sense something dark and powerful about him. His power will make us stronger if we can find a way to use him to our advantage. I want you to take this." Lady Kurata held out her hands. A long bow appeared in her hands. "This is a gift, use it well. It will take only one shot to take him down. But be careful."
"Yes, my lady." Athrun bowed to his mother before taking the bow and leaving.
"Soon everything that you want will be yours," a voice whispered in her ear. A dark looming shadow appeared behind the woman, its gold eyes blazing with malice.
"Yes. . .every. . .thing. . ."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * * * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Thank you for walking us back. You didn't have to." Mrs. Tsukino looked over at where Hiei was walking beside Sammy, answering the many questions the boy asked him. Hiei gave her a slight smile.
"It was no problem. It's the least I can do," Hiei replied.
"Hiei, tell me. Do you fight tons of demons in your dimension?" Sammy's eyes were filled with admiration for the male. He thought it was way cooler that his sister went for this guy rather than Darien. Sammy had always thought Darien seemed like a dork.
"There are lots of fights. We have to make sure that demons don't slip pass the barrier between the Human World and Demon World. It's not too hard. Most demons are not as strong as you would think."
"Wow, you must be ultra strong," awed Sammy.
"Strong enough to call the attention of my lady mother." Hiei's head snapped into the direction of the voice, sensing the strong energy of the male that Kurama had fought before. Hiei pulled out his sword, making space between him and Serena's family.
"Hiei!"
"Don't worry about me. I want you to go back to where Serena is. I'll buy you enough time to escape," Hiei said, tossing aside his cloak as he jumped up to where the male was waiting for him. "Go now!" Hiei felt the three leave, heading back to the crystal palace. Hiei glared at the male with the gold-green eyes. "What do you want?"
The male smiled as he rose up his hands, summoning the dark bow that his mother gave him. He narrowed his eyes as he pulled the bowstring back. "You." Athrun let the bow string go. Hiei had little time to blink as an arrow pierced him in the chest. Hiei's eyes widened, he hadn't seen the arrow that seemed to have been on the bowstring the entire time. Hiei fell to his knees, feeling himself blacking out. Before he passed out, all he could think about was that he failed Serena and Rini.
Athrun watched the male slump to the side. He had to admit that this weapon had come in handy indeed. Athrun walked up to the male and turned him over with his boot. Hiei was out cold.
"Too bad you didn't realize that the arrow was in you the whole time. My mother was right, there is something dark in you. That's why the arrow connected. If you had been pure like Neo Queen Serenity, you would not have been affected. Oh well, let's find out what my mother has in store for you." Athrun picked up the male and disappeared back to his mother's dark palace.

Nakoruru: Wow that was the most kick ass chapter yet.
Blazer: I agree. So, what happens next?
Rinka (grinning evilly): You will find out soon enough. Which will be. . .oh yeah, Wednesday. I have to think of what to do next to our hero. I told you I had plans for him.
Nakoruru (_): You are such an evil person. Well, you learned it from me. (shaking her head) You heard it folks. Wednesday is the next chapter update. Until then, R & R, bye for now.
Blazer: Isn't it Rinka's turn to write this chapter?
Nakoruru: Yeah, I wrote the last two chappies. She says she has plans to work in for this chappie. So I guess we sit back and let her work her magic.

Lethal Purple Crayon, yes very Hiei/Serena. *sniff sniff* So beautiful.
Lady Love. . .Keiko bashing? Yeah, that might be nice, but we do need her for an upcoming chapter and all. Sorry.
Kayla, glad she took a liking to him too. Things are much easier for us this way. ^ ^
Bunnychu, yeah, Rini is cuter, but you also got to realize that right now. We're positive that when she gets older, she will be the pink haired terror that everyone knows her to be. Especially if Hiei's going to raise her. Oh, and in that particular manga episode, he was under Wicked Lady's control, which was why he kissed her. And we would love to read your Yu-Gi- Oh stuff!

Hiei had little time to blink as an arrow pierced him in the chest. Hiei's eyes widened, he hadn't seen the arrow that seemed to have been on the bowstring the entire time. Hiei fell to his knees, feeling himself blacking out. Before he passed out, all he could think about was that he failed Serena and Rini.
Athrun watched the male slump to the side. He had to admit that this weapon had come in handy indeed. Athrun walked up to the male and turned him over with his boot. Hiei was out cold.
"Too bad you didn't realize that the arrow was in you the whole time. My mother was right, there is something dark in you. That's why the arrow connected. If you had been pure like Neo Queen Serenity, you would not have been affected. Oh well, let's find out what my mother has in store for you." Athrun picked up the male and disappeared back to his mother's dark palace.
