"Rai... hey, wake up.... HELLO?"
Kurama shakes me roughly after standing over me for what seemed like forever. He was trying to wake me. I already was up, but was trying to look too comfortable to be moved.
"Sunday morning... no school...."
"Church Rai...?"
I squint at him. "That'll be the day."
"Fine, be a heathen I don't care. But, you have to help clean up."
"Hangover, PLEASE go..."
Kurama sighs and stalks away, swinging the screen door open. I look around, and realize I'm on the deck, laying on a blue pillowed swing. Feeling around I push hair away from my face and sit up.
It was cold. January 31st. The world war was intensifying every day, and sooner or later I knew I would have to commute back in. I was stationed in India at the moment. Though we where fighting a war, I still had good memories. Because I had been stationed as a ground troop, I got to play part as a citizen. I lived in hotels, and ate their food.
But I wasn't about to worry about it now. I had left the military, my trial was over. Hopefully I wont get called back.

"Where'd everyone go...?"
Mirha looks at me, her grayish eyes appearing to sparkle silver in the sun. "They all left... At least Yuske, Keiko, Kurama, and Seta did..." I notice she looked worried.
Mirha was so polite and soft-spoken. I felt bad that she had to be brought from her peaceful village in Japan to live with my friends and me. Let alone into a war that didn't concern her.
"It seems that few soldiers have been killed..." I nodded.
"I'll be back."
I decided to look for Kiaru and Hiei. This would end up with nothing but a dead end most of he time, but maybe I would have some luck. I walked through the field, tall cherry trees being the only thing planted. I pushed past the low hanging branches, searching for Hiei's tree.
~~~ POV Changes (Kiaru Vision!)~~~
Hiei shifted uncomfortably and squinted. "I dislike that ningen. He isn't worthy of my sister."
"I should tell Shizuru this..." I smile wickedly. Hiei had a fear of Shizuru, because she was the only person unafraid of him, even at the worst times.
His eyes widen a slight bit, and his muscles tense. "I'll do with out it. Last time she burnt me with her cigarette..."
I laugh, at the 4th of July picnic we had, Hiei refused to swim. So Shizuru tackled him and burnt him with a lit cigarette. "Can't fight a woman, can you now Hiei...?"
He nods. At least there where some morals left in the demon. Good to know.
He leans back and closes his eyes. I don't understand how Hiei didn't fall. I couldn't hang upside down without being rushed out.
Branches below us start to shake. I look over the side and see Rai struggling. She looked almost as if she were a dying bat, trying to hang on one leg. Her dark hair was in her eyes, and she blinked rapidly trying to keep it out of her contacts. Rai didn't have an amazing athletic prowess, despite being in martial arts. She slipped and I could hear her bones popping as she reached us.
"Come on Hiei, Rai's gonna start whining..." I shuffle down the trunk.
*POV Change (Rai) *
"We need to get back home."
Hiei looks at me. "Why are you acting normal...?" His dull eyes slanted, in confusion. He makes his way toward me, and stands close.
Kiaru also has the same look on her face, and I turn around to walk towards home, starting to explain. "It seems that there are a few more prisoners of war...."
