"Where should we head first?" Kagome asked Kurama, having been with Hiei
enough that she knew she would get either two answers.
1. Silence 2. A 'hn'
"Maybe we should try there." Kurama said and pointed toward a big white marble building.
They walked inside the building but came too doors with a poem engraved on them.
Enter stranger, but take heed, Of awaits the sin of greed, For those who take, but do not earn, Must pay most dearly in their turn, So if you seek beneath our floors, A treasure that was never yours, Thief, you have been warned, beware, Of finding more than treasure there
'A challenge' Youko thought enthusiastically
'But it's stealing!' Suichi cried.
'So?'
'Can't you read between the lines? Can you not tell the consequences? You'll die! And so will I!' (A little rhyming, here) Suichi said, trying another approach.
'A challenge all the same..." Youko said.
Kurama sighed.
"Something wrong, Suichi?" Kagome asked worriedly
Hiei just glanced at him.
"No, no. I'm fine." Kurama said quickly
"You sure?" Kagome asked, still worried
"Yes, yes, really! I'm fine, Kagome." Kurama reassured.
"All right. Let's go!" Kagome said and opened the second pair of doors happily.
Hiei just glanced once more at his 'friend' and followed her in
*****
I think I already explained about the short chapters. If not, then it's one word. 'School' Yup, I think that's pretty much it. I write the chapters during directed study, (be thankful I can't sing) and homeroom. (Which I should have till computer starts again, then these'll pause for nine days, or so, but still be thankful)
