Sayonara, Bye-Bye!
Chapter 11
Hiei's Point Of View
" What do you mean, not human?" Kurama asked nervously.
" Well duh Kurama! Usually when there is a bad guy, they're not human!" Yusuke yelled.
" Don't talk to Kurama like that!" I yelled back.
" Can we stop fighting? This is definitely an amount of power to worry about and fighting like little kids isn't going to get us anywhere!" Kuwabara said.
" He's right." Kurama agreed.
" Here you guys go. I'll be parked a block down but I'll come to help as soon as I can!" Marron said as she dropped us off. There were many demons, but all of them had extraordinary powers in each of them.
" Rose Whip!" Kurama yelled as one of the demons charged at him. He quickly sliced it in half, hearing the last roar of that demon and then quickly going into battle to help Yusuke, who had shot about two spirit gun blasts.
" Spirit Sword!" Kuwabara yelled, decapitating one demon after another in a line. It was like they were standing in line to die next.
" Well." I muttered. I was surrounded by about sixteen of them, quickly murdering each one in a matter of seconds. We stood satisfied with ourselves on the turn out of this fight. Didn't take us more then three minutes.
" That was quick." Kuwabara said.
" I wonder why Marron was worrying." Yusuke said, cracking his knuckles.
" Yes. That was no match for us. Lower-class think too highly of themselves, naturally." I boasted. I put my sword back in its place and started to walk back to the truck.
" I think our battle isn't over yet." Kurama said. I turned around, as did Yusuke and Kuwabara only to see a bright flash and I fell into oblivion. Not knowing what happened. No scream, no noise at all. We just fell into a sea of shadows. I could see Kurama, next to me, peaceful as if he was sleeping. I tried to sit up at least but it was no good. What was going on?
" Kurama?" I thought. I tried to speak but nothing came out. We hit the bottom of whatever it was, but still no noise.
" Hiei!" I heard a voice. I sat up quickly and realized I was back at the house, on a futon in the living room. There was Marron, hovering above me.
" What happened? You're the first one awake." Marron said, trying to get me to focus.
" Where's Yukina?" I asked.
" I sent her back to Japan. She got dehydrated and her temperature went over 32 degrees and that's fatal for Koorimes. You know that. Now, what happened?"
" I don't know!" I yelled, angry and upset.
" How do you not know? I found you all on the street, you were all being attacked and just lying there. When I got you out of there you were all in serious condition."
" How long were we asleep?"
" Almost a week now! I need to know what happened Hiei. This is serious."
" I don't know. I only remember me falling and I couldn't speak. It was something like a dream."
" Hiei, you four were lying in the street being gored by demons! Look at you; you're covered with scars and gashes. Kuwabara has a wound that won't stop bleeding. I have tried to use my spirit energy to heal you all quickly but it's too difficult." She worried.
I understood why she was worried, she barely knew us and yet she was worried about us. I couldn't help but feel some sympathy.
" You're human right?"
" No. I'm a half. Half demon, half human." She answered.
" You're half?"
" Koenma wouldn't have hired me if I was full demon."
" Then how did you end up living by yourself?" I asked.
" I don't want to talk about it. You lay here and rest. Call me if anybody else wakes up." She answered, avoiding the question.
I laid my head back down on the pillow and relaxed and thought about things. Anything that came into mind, I would question and then think some more. I held my head, another headache, wasn't as bad as before but it still hurt.
" Hiei?" Kurama awoke.
" What?" I asked, not turning around.
" What happened?"
" I don't know Kurama. Let me go get Marron and tell her you're awake. She'll tell you the story." I said, getting up. I felt a sharp pain in my leg and looked down. I was still bleeding. I lay back down slowly.
" Marron!" I yelled, holding my leg in pain.
" Oh my!" Marron said, coming into the room. She bandaged my leg again and cleaned all of our wounds for a second time. The worry and care in her eyes. She hardly knew us and was doing so much to help us. I would watch her every time she came in, releasing all of her energy to heal us. We were in bed for an extra week and every day she would come home tired, from battling demons and would still work to get us better.
" Kuwabara, hold still." She scolded, tightening the bandages around his leg.
" Ouch!" Kuwabara whined.
" Stop being a baby." She laughed. " Lay back down." She said. She wrapped it and tied it. " Finished." She smiled. She moved over to Yusuke and removed the bandages on his head.
" You're doing much better Yusuke. I don't have to redo that one. Let me check the one on your arm." She said, carefully lifting Yusuke's arm.
" Is it better?" Yusuke asked.
" A little. Nothing some spirit energy won't fix." She smiled, continuing to check his wounds. She moved onto Kurama when she was done Yusuke.
" Excellent Kurama! You're pretty much healed except for the one on your back. You can get us whenever you feel like now. You too Yusuke, Kuwabara needs to stay in bed for another two days on average."
" What about me?" I asked.
" You can get up when I finish bandaging that one on your leg okay? Is that scar near the Jagan better yet?"
" Yes." I quickly answered.
" Okay then. Let me finish your leg and you can get up and go back to your computer chair." She laughed. I glared at Kurama who had gotten up. He just smiled at me.
" Don't be mad at Kurama. I saw you." She said, finishing up. " You're done! You can go beat up each other now if you want to, not too bad though. I don't want to have to do this for another two weeks."
" Thank you Marron. Words can't express our thanks for you." Kurama said, bowing.
" It's no problem. It's my job." She said, bowing back. She bowed way to far down, but she was learning.
Kurama and I walked back to our room and I sat back on my computer chair and started to spin around again.
" You and your taste in fun." Kurama laughed.
" Shut up Kurama." I threatened.
" Alright, alright. No need to be angry." Kurama said. There were a few minutes of silence.
" You know she's half demon, right?" I asked Kurama.
" I know, I knew she wasn't full human."
" Oh." I said, doing a really long spin on my computer chair.
" There's something special about Marron. I don't know what it might be. She has been sad lately though." Kurama informed.
" Really? I didn't notice." I said without surprise in my tone.
" I often heard her crying late at night. It was a heartbreaking cry. I would have asked her what was wrong but it seems she wants to keep it to herself."
" What could it be, if anything important to our mission?"
" I don't know Hiei. She'll tell us when she's ready. She seems to trust us well enough."
" Why did she do that for us? I think it was out of pity or just because she had to."
Kurama chuckled. " You have yet to learn about feelings Hiei. Honestly you do."
A/N: Ah! That was a very heartwarming chapter. I just wanted to show a bit more of Marron's character. So you know she's caring, enjoyable and nice. I got advice from a reviewer that they didn't quite understand her personality so I did one based around how Marron felt about the boys; it also gave a bit of suspense and storyline. I got some votes and one hilarious one.
Three votes- Yaoi
Two Votes- Kurama/Botan
One Vote- No Yaoi
One Vote- Hiei/Marron
One Vote- Kurama/Noelle
Here's a little note. Noelle is Marron's pet hamster that Yukina saw in the cage. Somebody said they liked Noelle's personality. All I did was mention Noelle's name and that she was a hamster. Kurama dating a hamster? That's funny but no.
I AM STILL TAKING VOTES UNTIL CHAPTER 13!!
