Sayonara, Bye-Bye!

Chapter 20

Hiei's Point Of View

" Well, do we go inside?" Kurama asked us.

" I guess." Yusuke said, leading the way. We entered into a freezing cold tunnel, perfectly rounded into somewhat of a tube, the ice around us glittering.

" It's kind of beautiful." Kurama smiled.

" It reminds me of Yukina." Kuwabara said.

" With that attitude, we'll never save her and Marron." I said. " You're acting like their dead."

" I know, I just think about the fact that they're going to drain her energy just to make a building. It makes me so mad!" Kuwabara yelled, slamming his bandaged hand on the wall of the ice tunnel.

" I'm so cold." Kurama shivered.

" You have Hiei's extra layer. I'm colder then you!" Yusuke complained.

" My robe is all I'm taking off." I said.

" Hey! You aren't male ice appartions are you?" A demon asked as we reached the main room.

" Yes, we are." Kuwabara covered up.

" Prove it!" he roared. Kurama shivered painfully and pulled out the perserved glacier chip.

" Well, you seem to have it. But you all look pretty cold except for him." he said, pointing to Hiei.

" They follow me. No need to worry about them." I said, glaring at them but still a look of reassurance.

" Where do you want to go?" the demon asked.

" To inspect the women. The koorimes."

" Oh alright. I suggest you be careful in there, I'm not going with you." the demon said. " You go straight down that tunnel and walk a little ways and you'll see ice melting and an iron door. Since you're not affected by the cold, you can open the door." he said opening the door.

I nodded and walked past him, we were a few feet inside the tunnel when we started to run. We knew what they were doing to them.

" Faster! They could be killed in any second!" I yelled.

" Why are we running?" Kuwabara asked.

" You idiot! They left them in a fire room! Koorimes can't stand degrees over 32 remember!?" I yelled.

" They've been in there for about a day now, the could be dead from starvation." Kurama added as we reached the door. I hooked my hands on the knob and quickly pulled the heavy gate open just enough for us to squeeze in. I couldn't do it alone.

" Rose Whip!" Kurama yelled, breaking the door neatly in two. Waves of steam blocked our vision and ice around us melted. We quickly rushed in.

" Marron!" I yelled, rushing to her side. She was drained of her energy and sweating all over, she was still breathing deep but couldn't last much longer.

" Is Yukina alright?" I asked Kurama.

" Yukina is fine?" Kurama questioned.

" She is!" Kuwabara said, waking her up. She opened up her red-brown eyes and smiled at Kuwabara. She had never looked that way to me. I felt a bit jealous that I wasn't her main protector anymore.

Kurama came to my side and put his hand on my shoulder. " It's okay Hiei." Kurama smiled at me, kissing me on the cheek.

" Let's get Marron home." I said, ignoring it. I couldn't take the pain, it was like heartbreak. Tears flooded my eyes at the rejection of my sister. Kurama saw how much I was hurting and wrapped him and myself with my robe. He used his spirit energy to protect Marron.

" I guess we should stay here until you get a little warmer." Hiei said. Yusuke and Kuwabara sat down, with Yukina while Kurama and I sat close together, wrapped by my robe.

" There's no reason to cry Hiei." Kurama whispered to me, wiping away my tears.

" But she's my sister. I'm her protector. I'm her big brother." I whined.

" Hiei, you're being childish. Kuwabara and Yukina love each other very much. That doesn't mean she doesn't love you."

" How do you know?" I asked.

" I don't know, but Yukina is moving on. You can't be there every step of the way." Kurama confessed.

" Why?"

" Hiei, you're asking questions I don't know." Kurama smiled. I didn't smile back.

" Oh you're such a baby." Kurama said, rolling his eyes. He was trying to get me to smile and I did.

" That's why I have you." I said, holding his hand.

" Of course. What would you be without me?" Kurama smiled.

" Kuwabara would be dead for one." I said. Kurama laughed. He looked at me a while and kissed me quickly.

" I guess we'd better get going. Marron is draining me." Kurama smiled again. He was in a happy mood, I guess.

" Come on." I said, yelling to Kuwabara, Yukina and Yusuke. I pulled Marron over my shoulder and started walking out, paying no attention to Kuwabara and Yukina.

" Damn it! They found out about us." Kuwabara said, watching as demons came toward us. I looked up, that was our only way out.

" Kurama, can I use your oar?" I asked, he summoned it and I hopped on, still carrying Marron. I withdrawed all of my energy into an energy blast and blasted a hole inside the roof. I took Kurama's hand, he took Yusuke's and Yusuke's took Kuwabara's and Kuwabara took Yukina's and I flew out of the hole, carrying everybody with me.

" Summon your oars!" Kurama said, jumping on the one I was on. Yusuke summoned his and Kuwabara and Yukina got on his and we quickly retreated back to our house back in Japan.

A/N: There you go! Chapter 20! I still have more to come which is always good, I do have a Part 3 idea that will be more comedy because the first one was drama, this part is adventure/romance so I figure I'll have comedy in Part 3. I might even have a Part 4! I don't want to end this story as you can tell. I hope you keep enjoying!
