The four remaining weeks of summer seemed to pass by too quickly for Keiko. She knew that she would surely miss the leisure time she spent with Hiei sitting on a tree branch together and watching the sunset and the sunrise afterwards.
She knew that when she started school, she would have to go back to Earth (since she's in the Spirit World training her demon powers) for her school uniform and tuition money and also to buy books for her semesters.
Not only but she was to live at home. Keiko hated the idea of asking her parents for money and to see them every day when they could barely look at her without flinching.
She also knew she would miss training with Hiei, though the days were tough, she had never felt as proud of herself since she seemed to master her spirit powers quickly. In no time at all she could easily materialize into the shadows and sneak up on Hiei. (^^)
After her first training with Hiei on her spirit energy, she easily mastered it, and she could turn her spirit energy into a black sword (kinda like Kuwabara but not quite). It would let out a burst of spirit energy, similar to a spirit gun.
She was as well, able to surround a victim in what seemed like a black invisible chamber kind of. It would be a wisp of black smoke like fog. It'd surround any living, breathing creature, and escape was nearly impossible, only the captor would be able to make the smoke disappear And if the prisoner stayed in for too long, there bodies would shrivel up like a prune only there bones and dead skin would be left.(A very gruesome death, isn't it.) The prisoners life force would go to the captor and recharge their spirit energy for it takes nearly all of you're power to summon the attack if they were an amature. Keiko like to call it Prison of No Escape and had tried it out on a few animals and had also tried to release them but was unsuccsesful.
Hiei was very impressed by the fact that she had mastered that techique so quickly even though she couldn't seem to be able to free the prisoners, he would never had expected her to have mastered it in one week.
That move wasn't the only way to get energy. Her fangs that now where on her upper and lower teeth, would grow larger and sharper. They pierced a victim's throat like a vampire, but not quite. Instead of sucking blood, the fangs would suck life. In away, it's kinda like food for Dark Demon's but in a very different way of food. The more you sucked life, the more power you got. She tired it on animals but absoultly refused when Hiei tried persuading her to try it on him.
"No! I will absoultly not do that to you Hiei!" she stubbournly shouted.
"But if it'll make master that move and make you stronger than you should. You really should try it on a somebody, instead of on animals."
"I WILL NOT SUCK LIFE OUT OF THE ONE PERSON I CARE ABOUT IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!!!" she cried furiously.
As she took another deep breath to continue yelling, she was stopped by a heartbreaking kiss Hiei gave her and took her in his arms hugging her fiercly and kissing her gently.
With some work, she had managed to accomplish reading minds. She was able to read and telapathikly talk with Hiei.
Keiko had also managed to look through Hiei's life, entranced by the memories he held. Since Hiei had the jagan, he was able to read her mind and look through her memories. Now each were exposed of their feelings of each other, of what their lives were like and had never felt closer than before. No secrets were held from each other, none of how anxious Keiko was of meeting Yusuke, her proudness of accomplishing powerful spirit moves, none of how hurt and betrayed she felt towards her parents, none of how she loved Hiei more than anyone else. None of how Hiei felt proud of Keiko in mastering difficult moves, his hurt, bitter, and angry feelings toward Sakura when he found out that she betrayed him, betrayed his trust, none of how he could hardly believe that a once human, could love a cold hearted demon, could break through his icy, stone cold heart and made it love again, none of how he loved Keiko more than life itself. When each secret thought was exposed, each blushed furiously at the thought of knowing, that they knew their most deepest desires.
Keiko learned that she could veil her thoughts but knew she wanted Hiei to know every thing about her.
Reading minds was not the only thing that she could do, she was able to jumble a person's mind, or push away thoughts.
Though she could master those hard spirit moves, she was unable to get clear premonitions. Sure she was able to get them when danger came, but it was hazy and a bit unclear to read.
But still, both Hiei and Keiko had to admit that her progress was very impressive. The four weeks had been here and then passed right before their eyes.
On the last day, the last Makia sunset she would see, Hiei and Keiko had settled themselves in a tree looking at the serene and peaceful scene. The sunset seemed to end too quickly, and night had already befallen.
Though this was not a problem towards Hiei and Keiko at all, for they were both hunters in the night now.
To Keiko, it seemed perfect for she always wanted to stargaze, but never had the chance for at night was when she practiced Prison of No Escape, and her spirit sword with the mind reading, basically everything.
For during the daytime she also had to practice them, but it was hard for Keiko to do it during the sunlight, for the bright light burned her eyes. Hiei had to teach her how to deal in the sunlight.
Sighing, Keiko leaned back against Hiei's chest, in which she was sitting on his lap and their arms were tangled in each other.
"What's wrong?" Hiei asked concern washing over his crimson wide eyes. He noticed that she was a bit quieter and looked kinda sad.
"Nothing, just that I have to deal with my parents...and now I'm going to have to start with Yusuke." she finished sighing again.
He gently kissed her forehead and told her things would be fine. Her only answer was another sigh. When it was pretty late, Hiei took Keiko back to Earth, they had traveled much faster now that she could materialize into the shadow.
Finally back to her old bedroom window, Keiko climbed in and whispered good night to him.
She felt so uncomfrotable on her bed but exhaustion won over and she fell into a dreamless sleep.
The next morning she tried on her uniform but found it matched horribly with Keiko's new changes.
Her appearance changed slightly from before her training, eyes still a deep irristable blue, her silky black with thin streaks of white, dark blue and purple. Her skin fairly pale, milky smooth, had very, very faint lines of black designs on her arms, legs, and stomach.
She definetly grown shorter and slimmer, and very slightly muscular.
Discarding now her old school uniform, she decided to wear a black tank top that showed off her flat stomach a little and a daring black short mini skirt that clung to her waist and was at the top of her thighs.
Her long hair was pushed up with a black clip, she put on tall black boots on and to finish it off she put on a moon pendant.
The old Keiko would never buy or wear these clothes, but her friend bought it for her as a birthday gift, grateful to her know.
Never really putting makeup on, she decided to wear it and carefully applied a dusty, glittery blue eye shadow, with some black eye liner and mascara. For her lips she dabbed on a slight pink, slight red lip gloss. Spraying jasmine perfume all over her body she breathed in the wild and exotic scent.
Looking at her finished product of herself, she gasped in wonderment, the old Keiko would never look like this. She loved this new her. Always feeling excitement and a rush of danger, the only problem was Hiei.
She missed him, she longed for him, shaking her head in forgetting the thought Keiko carefully went down the steps.
When her parents hadn't seen her for four weeks they hoped she had went somewhere to straighten out her act, they were horribly wrong and horribly disapointed.
They just stared at her with open mouths without even a 'Welcome Back!' or a 'Where have you been!?'
Keiko quickly left and tried not to let them see tears filling her eyes. Trying not to smudge her makeup, she walked to the school and tried not to faint at the thought of meeting Yusuke again.
Reaching the now foreboding building Keiko took in a deep breath and tried to make her face emotionless like Hiei had taught her.
Keiko reached the classroom door and walked in, all the noise of talking and chatter died away and all eyes stared at Keiko.
But the only face that she saw was Yusuke, who was staring at her too. Next to him she saw Botan and Kuwabara with expressions of the most utter surprise.
Suddenly Yusuke said in a voice mingle with surprise, nervousness, fear, and longing, "Keiko?"
