Dragon's Lovely Flame
Written by: Spike (blah, blah, blah, you guys know I don't own YYH or anything, just me own characters, now STOP SUING ME!)
A/N: I'm glad some people like my stories! And Sayaka, I hope you read my other two YYH fics before reading this one, because this one is the closure of that story. Just making sure.

-------Chapter 4: Confounded Mistakes-------
"What did she mean, ALWAYS her business...? She's barely talked to me for an hour and she already believes she knows all about me. If she's not human, she's surly demon. And the nerve of her to steal my sister's face, as well... damn her!"
Hiei was in a fussy mood, but it wasn't really real. He was napping as he'd promised, talking to the tree he had seen once before in his dreams. The tree was listening intently, awaiting a chance to speak.
"Young dragon, this concern is not mine. I warned you about this before. Do not let her get closer to you, for the closer she gets, the more wounds she places on you. She will kill you off slowly if you are not on your guard."
Hiei stared down the tree, an angry look in his eyes.
"And why, dear tree, do you care about my well-being?? Is it your well-being that is concerned, or mine?? I am fine... I will be fine!"
With a start, Hiei was awoken. Staring around for a moment, he noticed Kurama watching him, a look of anxiety on his face. With a sort of is-there-something-on-my-face type of tone, he said, "Something wrong?"
"Oh, no, good friend..." Kurama grinned and held up a hand in denial. "I was just keeping guard over you. Yusuke thought something was wrong with you, so he sent me to watch you in case something happened during your sleep."
"Well, I think I'm fine, now, 'dear friend'..." Hiei sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes and replacing his headband to his head before the Jigan eye awoke. With a sigh, he turned to Kurama. "I'm going for a walk."
Kurama nodded in conviction. Without another word, Hiei dashed out of the heavenly palace. One jump, and he cleared the gap to Earth. As he walked now, wrapped in his black cloak and sensing the change from fall to winter, his thoughts turned to the girl.
::What is this girl trying to do to me? It seems almost surreal... she's overpowering my emotions, my thoughts... what does this mean?::
Absent-mindly, he walked into a large oak tree in the middle of the park. He gained one quick glance of the tree before faltering in pain. Except, it was getting worse. The pain fumbled through his head like a burning, seething entity of Hell, raging his every belief into fear. Finally succumbing, he lets out a scream of terror.
"Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!! MAKE IT STOP! PLEASE... MAKE IT STOP!!!!!" But he knew, in his mind, that no one would come. No one would save him now, it was all over, it was all... on the ground?!
Hiei looked down. Sure enough, his feet were touching solid, material ground. He also could hear a faint giggling in the distance, and yet so close to his ear. Someone had saved him... but who?
"Perhaps..." he says to himself in a small voice, "It will always be a mystery to me. Perhaps I will never truly know the answer."
"Why, that's not true, Hiei."
Startled, Hiei turned around - and his jaw flung itself to the floor. Standing there, in all her glorious beauty, was Miyu, giggling with that same far away/very near awareness. Blushing (::Why the hell am I blushing? I haven't got any warm blood... do I?::) Hiei waves back.
"Silly dragon, you should be in bed, resting!" She flaunted, pouring her now-extremely-long hair down to the ground. Hiei was stunned, too speechless for anything except an occasional squeak from his voice box. She giggled again.
"I shall see you again, Hiei-sama." With one last giggle, she disappears, and suddenly Hiei is jumping back to The Palace of Heaven in mixed emotion.
::What is she doing to me? I want to know the answers now... I want to find the truth... so... what am I doing here?::
-I believe in one thing; that the world can never be truly happy. That we are always fighting for something.-
