CHAPTER SIXTEEN

"Pregnant?" Hiei said clearly surprised by what Koenma had just confirmed.

"Congratulations, Shorty." Kuwabara said, rubbing Hiei's head.

"Cool! I'm gonna be an uncle!" Yusuke shouted happily. "Congratulations, you two." Kurama said. Everyone was saying their congratulations when a voice piped up.

"Just a minute!" Hiei said loudly.

"Huh?" Everyone looked at him with confused look on their faces.

"Hiei-chan?" Akari asked as Hiei pulled from her embrace and walked up to Koenma.

"Are you sure about this, Koenma? Is Akari truly pregnant?" Hiei asked, looking down at Koenma.

"I know the timing couldn't have been better, but yes. Akari is with child." Koenma said.

Hiei closed his eyes and sighed deeply.

"I see." Was all he said.

Everyone looked at each other, puzzled by Hiei's reaction to the news. Akari on the other hand, felt an icy tingle down her spine. A clear sign that something wasn't right about the way Hiei was acting. She quickly changed the subject before anyone could ask any questions about it, including herself.

"I understand now, why you want me to stay behind Lord Koenma, but I have to go. Yusuke and the others only have a slim chance of defeating Vendetta it I'm not with them. I need to go." She addressed.

"No, Akari. I'm sure we can handle it without you. Just tell us what to do and we'll take care of the rest. Don't worry. Besides, I don't want anything happening to my niece or nephew." Yusuke said coming over and hugging her.

"And I'm sure that Hiei doesn't want the same thing either, right Hiei?" Kurama said looking at Hiei who stood off alone in a corner with his eyes closed.

"Hn." Was all he said.

"Hiei." Yusuke said.

"Well, come on you guys. I'll tell you what needs to be done so you can get going. The sooner Vendetta is stopped, the sooner Earth can be restored." Akari said.

Akari told Yusuke and the others how to get into the fortress, how to use the orbs of Chaos, Destruction, and Discord, and the best course of action to use against Vendetta. Once that was done, the guys prepared to leave through the portal to send them to the fortress where Vendetta and her minions were.

"Now, remember. The orbs will only respond to your feelings and emotions, the stronger they are, the stronger the orbs will be. But, be careful not to let your anger overwhelm you or the consequences could be deadly, okay?" Akari told them.

"Gotcha." Yusuke told her. She, Yusuke, Hiei, Kurama, Kuwabara, and Koenma stood at the before the portal. "And be careful and on your guard. Vendetta is very cunning." Koenma said.

"Let's just get this over with." Hiei said walking into the portal without waiting for the others to join him.

"Hey, wait." Kuwabara said.

"What's with him?" Yusuke asked.

"We better catch up with him before we lose the element of surprise." Kurama said. Kuwabara and Yusuke entered, but Kurama hesitated for a moment and looked at Akari.

"Try not to worry, Akari. Hiei will come around." He said and entered the portal.

"I'm not so sure, Kurama. Maybe Hiei doesn't want to be a father." Akari said placing a hand on her flat stomach, praying that foreboding feeling she had would not come to pass.
