Ivy Raine: *sleeps*
Kurama: Welcome back, everyone! Michelle and Koenma have disappeared. Ivy Raine is still asleep. *looks down in lap* It's really rather nice. *blushes and looks back up* Any way, I took Ivy's notes and my Youko side wrote this.
Hiei: Yeah. It's really rather sickening. It's almost as if Yusuke wrote it.
Kurama: *knocks Hiei unconscious* As I was saying. My Youko side wrote this chapter, so please excuse all mis-spellings. Enjoy. I can't as I'm about to give this demon a bath!
Allyna: *sighs* Chapter begin.
------------------------------
-What do you mean? Who is it?- she asked, knowing that she sounded frantic.
-It's that lady. Crabby Abby?-
She said several phrases. Then, she walked into the main room. "Miss Abigail. To what do I owe this pleasure?"
-One word from you, Hiei, and I reserve the right to wring your neck!-
He chuckled. -Clear.-
-Good.-
"Your cousin, Miss Emerald. Wuttah Mauo, right?"
"Yes, ma'am. What about him?"
"He doesn't speak English?"
"Not very well, ma'am. I'm teaching him."
"He's not your cousin, is he?"
"Ma'am?"
"He's not your cousin. He's your betrothed, isn't he?"
-What do I do, Hiei? She's offering me an escape.-
-Well, that depends. I find being your non-English speaking cousin very awkward, but being your betrothed could raise some questions.-
-A lot of help you are, Hiei.-
"No, ma'am. He's not my betrothed. Though my people still practice marriage by troth, my mother died before I was promised."
"You're sleeping together."
"Well, ma'am, the nights are cold. My people often sleep together to conserve energy and generate warmth."
"I wasn't referring to that sleeping."
She was silent. Then, it hit her with the weight of a cannonball. "Miss Abigail, what you are accusing me of is not only illegal by my people's laws, but is disgusting," she murmured, standing. "If you are here to insult me, please leave."
--------------------------------------
-What is she accusing you of?-
-Incest. She's implying that I'm no better that Maybelle Boothe or Velvet Rose.-
He delicately probed her memory. Maybelle Boothe was the wife of Lucas Morgan who had ran away after the war with her brother. Velvet Rose, or Roseannæ Ascot, was a 'lady' at Madame Lettie's place.
-Can I kill her?- he growled.
-No. Unfortunately. If you do, you'll hang.-
He grumbled. -Pity. She's a bitch.-
She laughed bitterly.
"Are you leaving or not, Miss Johnson?"
"I'll see you at church later, Miss Emerald."
"Actually, I can't attend. My horse, Blaze, has a broken leg and the snow's far too deep to walk to town in. Do offer my apologies to Reverand Thompson."
"I will, Miss Emerald. Good day."
Allyna closed the door behind Crabby Abby and slid to the floor on a sigh.
-What is it?- he asked telepathically, not believing that the lady was gone.
-I'm merely tired.-
Again, he probed her mind.
'Wonderful job, Allyna! You're lying through your teeth, you find a demon, of all men, attractive, and you've been fighting off the attentions of Lucas Morgan for how long!' There was a pause. 'What did I do to deserve this?'
-Allyna, it's pointless to lie to me. Who's Lucas Morgan?-
-Farmer, outlaw, and most eligible bachelor in Tumbling Creek. He's been courting me because, unlike his first wife, I'm plain. I wouldn't have men all around me, tempting me. I would remain at home with the children.-
He stood there. Now, he was tempted to murder. How dare this ningen call Allyna plain!?
-Because I am, Hiei.-
He looked at her.
She had silver eyes, brown-black hair, and a heart shaped face. To him, quite suddenly, she became the most beautiful woman he had seen in two hundred years.
-No, you're beautiful, Allyna.-
Her face became anguished. -Don't lie to me!-
-I'm not.-
She met his eyes and he became breathless at the hope deep within them.

Youko Kurama: I sorta stopped typing here.
Ivy Raine: *yawns and stretches* Hello. *sees script* What in the hell have you done to my story?!
Allyna: Think that's bad? Look what he did to Hiei.
*Ivy Raine sees Hiei in the tub.*
Ivy Raine: Ack! My poor virgin eyes! Someone dress him!!! *faints*
Allyna: *goes to Hiei* See you later, folks.
