Ivy Raine: Hello, peeps!
Kurama: Welcome to Brink's eighth chapter! We're happy that we got this far.
Ivy Raine: I want to thank all of the readers and all of the people who honoured me with their reviews.
*Ivy Raine leans her head on Kurama's shoulder.*
Ivy Raine: To update you.. Old Abigail Johnson stopped by for a visit. She accused Allyna of being incestuous and Allyna got upset. Then, she told Abby to leave. *looks at Kurama* I don't like Abby.
Kurama: Nor do I.
Allyna: She's done worse in the past, you two.
Kurama: I think that Hiei is really angry about Allyna having a suitor.
Ivy Raine: I think that Hiei wants him dead.
Allyna: There's a $1000 dollar reward for him in five states. Dead or alive.
Ivy Raine: Don't let Hiei hear you say that.
Kurama: To continue the story!
Ivy Raine: I would take another nap, but I don't trust you not to screw up the chapter, Kurama.
Kurama: I'm hurt. By the way, where's Michelle and Koenma?
Ivy Raine: Like I know.
--------------------------------------
They met by a secluded pool in the public park.
"Are we all here?" Kurama asked, counting. "Let's see... Botan, Shizuru, Yukina, Keiko, Yusuke, Kuwabara, Genkai, and myself. That's all eight of us."
"Why is Pacifier Breath having us meet so early?" yawned Yusuke.
"Because there are less people who could stumble across us," Kurama suggested politely.
"Very well. As you all know, Hiei has disappeared. Yusuke had Jinn and Kurama had Kuroune search the Makai. He's not there. The ningenkai has been thoroughly been searched by Kuwabara and myself. Again, no avail. He's not here."
"Tell us something we don't know, Diapers," said Keiko. Everyone raised their eyebrows at her rare show of temper.
"Right. Due to an obscure memory of Kurama's, we may have a clue of where to find Hiei. In the 1860s, Kurama was in the United States. Specifically, the area known as the Indian territories."
"May I take it from here, Koenma?"
"Go ahead."
"It was 1868, just after the Sioux treaties. I was in the territories and ran across a demon/Apparition and her teenaged daughter. The demon/Apparition had a variety of powers; however, there was an oddly significant concentration of power in the daughter.
"The daughter had silver-white hair, signifying that she was an important demon/Apparition. I taught the girl as much as I could in the short amount of time that I was on the reservation. She caught on quickly.
"Quinneke, as I trained her, showed a talent in fire, lightning, healing, and water. Others arose, though. I trained her extensively in plants and earth."
"Are we going to aid her?" queried Yukina.
"No," Koenma replied. "You're going to retrieve Hiei, nothing more."
"What happens to the girl?"
"She dies in 1879. She's murdered by renegades, Kurama."
"What?!" yelled Yusuke. Kurama merely looked down to the ground.
"That's why you're getting Hiei out of there. If he's there when she's murdered, he'll go insane. Berserk."
Kurama froze. "He's in love with Quinneke, isn't he, Koenma?"
Koenma sighed. "Yes. And she with him."
"Then why does she have to die!?"
"Yusuke, she's a semi-mortal in love with a full-blood youkai."
"But he's the full-blood youkai in love with a semi-mortal!"
"In love enough that he allows her to bear his child," Koenma finished.
This shocked everyone, including Kurama. Yusuke, Kuwabara, and several others sat down on the ground hard. Only Shizuru and Kurama remained standing.
"She gives birth to his child?"
"Yes, Shizuru. She names the child Elanor. The child, unless she's removed to the future, will be killed with her mother."
---------------------------------------------
They awoke at the same time.
-Good morning, Allyna.-
She stretched and silently rejoiced at the feel of skin brushing skin.
-Good morning, Hiei.-
-Sleep well?-
She blushed. -Yes. You?-
-Best sleep I've had in years.-
She smiled and touched her hand to his cheek. He shuddered.
-I do that to you?-
-Yes. You definitely set my senses awhirl.-
He kissed her.
-I need to prepare for school,- she murmured.
-I'll start the fire.- He got up and walked out of the room.
'So. This is what it's like to love. Oh, Bliss, I wish you were here! I wish I could tell you that you were right!'
Bliss Colter, her 'adopted' sister from when she had attended school in Atlanta, had always told her that, despite her plainness, there was one man who would tell her he loved her.
More often than not, she had scoffed, saying, 'Who can love a wren where there are peacocks around?'
And though the word 'love' hadn't passed between them last night, she was nearly positive that he loved her.
-Allyna, fire's ready.-
'And I love him.'
-----------------------------------------
Ivy Raine: You player, you.
Hiei: What do you mean?
Kurama: Ivy Raine, what's a player?
Ivy Raine: *sighs and raises eyebrow* You obviously haven't seen all of the Hiei/Botan or Hiei/Kurama stories. *holds up 'Ban yaoi!' sign*
Hiei: Ivy, that's sick.
Ivy Raine: The name 'Ivy' is reserved for friends and lovers. You aren't my friend and you sure as hell ain't my lover.
*Everyone sees Allyna begin to play with a sharp butcher knife.*
Kurama: Hey! Here comes Michelle and Koenma!!
Koenma: Get this crazy lady away from me!!
Ivy Raine: Michelle!
Michelle: So cold.
Allyna: Hiei, start up the fire. These two are nearly frozen.
Kurama: *pulling Ivy into lap* Interesting friend you have.
Ivy Raine: You should meet the others.
Ivy's other friends: We're here!!!!!
Kurama: Welcome to Brink's eighth chapter! We're happy that we got this far.
