Hey its chapter 4!......................
Disclaimer: I do not own Inu-yasha or Yu Yu Hakusho. I do however, own Ayisa and Hiei, and Botan owns Kurama.
Kurama: She does not own me!
Botan: Yes I do, don't you see the sticker on your shirt with my name on it?
Kurama: That doesn't mean anything, and untie me from this tree!
Botan: Um, well, maybe I will....
Kurama: What do you mean maybe?
Botan: I don't feel like it.
Hiei: *from attic* Help!
^_^ hehehe, ok on to chapter 4!
**************
Later that night, Ayisa and Hiei sat on top of a cliff staring at the large moon. Tonight, it was bright and full. "What are we going to do?" Ayisa asked, "We're stuck here until they complete that jewel. All we do is fight, how are we going to live with each other, much less travel with them?"
Placing his hand on her knee, he answered, "We'll see. Pretty soon they'll realize how strong we are and will come to admit that they will need our help. As for the fighting, I'll always protect you. You won't have to worry about the monk or that dog." He sat back and sighed. "You can really see the stars here, not like back home with all of the city lights."
Ayisa sat back and looked up. "Yeah, its so beautiful. I wish every night could be like this."
They sat there together for a while until Hiei stood up. "I'm just going to go think for a while, don't worry about me." He turned and began to slowly walk towards the forest.
Ayisa continued to stare at the stars for what seemed like forever, "Ahh." She sighed laying down. Suddenly she felt a tug at her skirt. She looked up and saw Shippo standing next to her. "Oh!" She exclaimed, a little surprised.
"Can I sit here with you?" The small kitsune asked.
"Um, sure, I guess." She sat up.
"Can I sit on your lap?" He asked quietly.
"Well, I guess its ok." She said as she picked the boy up. She placed him in her lap and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm just lonely." Shippo replied. "Everyone has someone to be with, that is, except me."
"What do you mean?" Ayisa asked, now becoming concerned.
"Well, Kagome is the one who cares for me most, but she's always fighting with Inu-yasha and it seems as if they belong together. The same for Miroku and Sango, I know Miroku can be a creep, but he and Sango really get along. But there's no one that I can really relate to. I'm the only full demon of the group, unless you count Kirara. But Kirara belongs to Sango and you can't exactly talk to her and get a response. But on top of all of that, my father was killed by a pair of demons, he was always there for me, I feel his spirit watching over me, but I'll never actually see him again."
Ayisa put her arms around the lonely child and said, "You can look up to me if you like. I don't know how long we're going to be with you, but while I'm here, you're welcome to talk to me whenever you like."
Shippo looked up at Ayisa with bright eyes. "Really? You'd do that for me?"
"Well sure, you can't go through life without any friends."
He smiled and looked up at the stars.
"I just can't help but think that we're all just stars in the sky, each star may feel small and unimportant, but without every star, the sky would be pitch black." Ayisa whispered to Shippo.
The two kitsunes stood up and walked hand-in-hand back to the hut.
********************
Meanwhile on the next cliff over...
********************
"Oooh how I'd love to cut that red hair of his and burn it." Miroku said to himself as he hid in the bushes. Sango and Kurama were sitting on the edge of the cliff talking.
Kurama knew Miroku was in the bushes, he could smell him, but he chose to ignore the monk. "The moon always made me feel better when I was separated from my friends. I felt as if as I looked up at the moon, my friends were looking at the same moon and that we were together." Kurama stated.
"That's so beautiful, I feel the same way when I'm thinking about my brother Kohaku." Sango replied. "I miss him so much, we've been separated for so long, I thought he was dead and I was badly injured. I left without thinking whether he was alive or dead. But Naraku changed that, he's keeping Kohaku alive on borrowed time. At any given moment, Naraku could end Kohaku's life. It makes me feel better when I think that the closer we get to completing the jewel, the closer I get to saving my brother."
"Naraku?" Kurama said, a questioning look on his face.
"He's the demon who now holds almost the whole jewel. He's the one who's caused us the most pain in the past year. He tried to put me against Inu- yasha and the others, but his plan failed. Now he holds my brother in his control in hopes to destroy me and everyone I care for."
Kurama put his arms around her and quietly said, "I promise, my friends and I will help you complete the Shikon No Tama and I'll help you free your brother."
"Yoko," She whispered, tears began to form in her eyes. "Thank you."
They sat there staring at the stars and Miroku continued to watch from the bushes.
"Just look at that sly animal go after my Sango." Miroku said to himself.
"And you're doing what?" Miroku quickly turned around and was startled to see Inu-yasha standing behind him.
"I w-was just um, er," He stuttered, "Going to the bathroom! T-that's right, so um, go away."
"Right. I'm not buying it. I don't see why them being together bothers you, you're always going after the women we meet, you hardly pay attention to Sango unless you're just with us." Inu-yasha stated. "The right girl will come along, you'll see."
"The right girl has come along!" Miroku yelled as he fell to his knees. "The only girl for me is SANGO!"
"Shh!" Inu-yasha shushed, but it was too late.
"What do you think you two are doing?!" Sango yelled as she and Kurama stood up.
"We're um, we're, we're," They stuttered, "We're going to the bathroom!"
"I do believe that you Miroku have been hiding there for the past hour spying on Sango and I and you Inu-yasha began hiding there about ten minutes ago." Kurama stated. "Your scent isn't hard to miss."
"Hmph." The two guys snorted. They turned around and walked back towards the hut.
"Sorry about them..." Sango apologized, "They can sort of get out of hand sometimes."
"It's ok, at least we had some time to ourselves." He leaned over and gave Sango a kiss.
Blushing, she held out a lily which she gave to him. "I found it earlier today and thought you might like it."
He accepted the flower and they walked back to the hut together.
*********************
In the forest...
*********************
"What to do, what to do..." Hiei sighed, "I could help them complete the jewel and then just go home, or...I could help them complete it and then take it for myself." He sat up in the tree trying to figure out what to do. "They're taking a real risk having the three of us, three thieves, help them with a priceless, much coveted jewel. What makes them trust us? We can hardly say anything without fighting, what makes them think we can work together? It just doesn't make any sense. What are they hiding, they still haven't given a reason for wanting the Shikon No Tama in the first place. There has to be a reason, from what I know, demon's covet the jewel for its ability to enhance its power. But that doesn't explain why there are humans after it." He stopped and sighed. Talking to himself made him relax more and he was able to better think things through. "What if we're just walking into a trap, there's no telling what we could be walking into." He wondered what was happening back home, in the future. "Koenma's probably jumping for joy because he doesn't have to pay for any expensive hotels or anything. Stupid toddler, if he had been willing to give us more money, we may have been able to go somewhere worth going to. But no, he had to give us just enough to get us a couple hours south of the city. I swear, once I get my hands on him, he'll wish he'd never sent us on vacation. No thanks to him we're stuck in this strange land. Although, I have to say this is hardly different from Makai, except for the humans and the serious lack of huge A and S-class demons roaming about. Also for the fact that the sun is out almost all day, so I was wrong, this place is different from Makai, but there are similarities. I've survived Makai and I'll survive this new land." Convincing himself that he would survive, he stopped talking because through the darkness, a figure was approaching. "Who's there, I'm warning you!" He yelled.
The figure came closer but was still hidden in the shadows. The closer it came, the more demonic power Hiei sensed. The figure stopped about five feet away from the tense fire demon and spoke. His voice was deep and filled with evil. "You are not a demon from around here, what brings you to this boring village?"
Hiei did not know the demon, but judging by his appearance, long black hair, piercing eyes, and long purplish-black kimono, he looked like a demon of evil and great importance. "What do you care?" He sneered.
"Nothing, I was just passing by and noticed you were not from around here." The demon simply answered.
"It's none of your business as to where I'm from. I suggest you leave before I get ticked off." Hiei said, his blood beginning to boil.
"Ha...ha ha ha!" The demon laughed. "I'll go, but remember one thing."
"What?!" Hiei snapped.
"Remember, the name Naraku." With saying his last words, the demon created a cloud and rose up into the sky where he disappeared.
Hiei jumped out of the tree and started to walk back to the hut, it was nearly four in the morning.
***********************
So...what did you think? Review and let me know!
************************
Hiei: Um...anyone remember me? I'm still in the attic, hello? Anyone?
Kurama: Give it up Hiei.
Botan: That's right, my Kurama has given in, why don't you?
Hiei: Because I'm not weak!
Kurama: You're calling me weak!?
Hiei: Who else would I be talking to?
Um... guys, could you keep it down a bit?
Hiei and Kurama: NO!
^_^ heh heh whoops!
Disclaimer: I do not own Inu-yasha or Yu Yu Hakusho. I do however, own Ayisa and Hiei, and Botan owns Kurama.
Kurama: She does not own me!
