"Hiei, is that any way to treat your big sister?" The girl asked mocking a motherly tone. Hiei nearly fell out of his tree from shock.
"Wha?"
The girl smiled cockily, reminding Hiei vaguely of Yusuke. He was sure that the girl had an attitude to match the detective's as well. "Yep, I'm your elder sister, well one of them anyways, but that's off the subject. Our father sent me to bring you back to Cepherio, our Master Mage, Clef, and his apprentices believe Debonair may be on the rise again, and he claims she'll be unbeatable if we don't have all four of us, the children of the Fire Knight, united. So," She shrugged still keeping her cocky smile, "I'm here."
Hiei let this information slowly sink in. A few moments then . . . "I think you can handle yourselves." Hiei concluded, "So go away."
The girl stood and stared up at Hiei for a moment before the comment seemed to register and she began to visibly smoke. Several people standing around that general area began to panic. "You should try and be nice to your elder sister you know?" Hiei quickly sat up and stared at the girl.
"What's she getting at?" He wondered.
"'Cause you never know what she could do to you." She finished her eyes blazing like fireballs. Flames sprung up at the red-head's feet and began to burn the grass around her. The remaining innocent bystanders had rushed out of the park.
Hiei flinched. "Why am I frightened of her? All she's done is a couple of fire tricks and scared away the locals."
Suddenly a chilly rush of air spread over the park and the blaze of fire the petite girl had started was dispersed. The red-headed girl began to look around frantically, terror painted plainly in her eyes. "No," She moaned, "Not her, not now."
"Not who?" Hiei asked, curiosity getting the better of him. He really wanted to know what was panicking the girl. His Jagan flashed red; he was being blocked out of the red-head's mind.
The girl shivered. "Luna." She whispered, just loud enough for Hiei to hear. The wind began to blow harder than before at the mention of the name. Hiei began to shiver, he felt . . . cold. Wait! Since when was he ever cold? Hiei had no time to ponder on this as the wind had pulled itself up into a tornado and than dispersed. Behind the red-headed girl stood a tall beautiful woman clad in a long billowing purple gown that flittered even in the now nonexistent wind. Dark violet, almost inhumanly sharp eyes gazed at him from underneath deep purple bangs. The smirk that played on her lips evoked a feeling of deepest fear and respect.
Hiei gawked, not out of the surprise of her beauty but out of shock. She was powerful!!!! If rated on the demon power scale she would be S-class - easy. He could have felt this woman's energy if she was all the way on the other end of the Nigenkai or even in the Makai! There was no way this woman was from Earth. No plausible way.
She must be from Cepherio.
