Chapter 1- It's not Possible!
"KAZUMA!" I screamed, running towards him, tears streaming out of my eyes. I couldn't believe that everyone was dead, except him. If so, I couldn't lose him, I can't lose Kazuma!
I ran faster, my sandals flying off my feet, thudding against the ground. Time seemed to slow down, and all I could do was run. In slow motion, right before my eyes, I saw Kazuma's end. A youkai, appeared out of nowhere, and slashed him across the chest, over the heart, the lungs, the stomach. He fell with a sickening thud, his eyes and mouth wide open. I tried to scream again, but nothing came out.
The youkais looked around fro more victims, so I crouched down next to Hiei, my body limp, my head on his chest. I smeared some of his blood onto my face and hands, so I appeared dead. Dead. The word sent shivers all over my body. I just couldn't believe it. Kurama, Yusuke, Kazuma, and my own brother, Hiei, were all dead.
My eyes swelled, with hot tears, and I heard the precious gems fall to the ground. Anger was building inside of me. I was a useless ice maiden! All I could do throughout the battle, was hide and watch as everyone met their demise. My eyes, frosted over and I felt myself go cold. I thought of blizzards, and ice shards and hail and blood. Soon, the battle field was surrounded by snow and the murderous youkais were caught in their tracks. Snow began to attach to them, freeze them over, as ice and hail cut through their skin and scales, exposing blood. Knowing that they couldn't move, I picked up Hiei's katana and charged. With a power unknown to me, I cut the youkais into millions of pieces. My energy used up, I fell to the ground, with a triumphant smile on my face.
I was cold, so very cold. Even though he was dead, I believed that Hiei had some warmth left in his koorime soul. I crawled over to him and huddled into a ball, using his arm as a blanket. My head was on his chest, and I felt a little bit warmer. Ever so slightly, I could feel the rising of his chest, and hear his heavy breathing. He was alive! "Hiei!" I cried, kneeling next to him. I raised my hands over his body and, using what ki I had left, started to heal him. Slowly, the color came back into his face, and his blood disappeared. His cuts closed and I could hear his breathing again. It was regular. He coughed and opened his eyes, and looked up at me. "Yukina?" he asked, probably surprised he was alive.
"Hiei!" I cried, flinging my arms around his neck and sobbing. "You're alive, you're alive," I croaked, so happy to see him. He looked around and saw everyone else lying on the floor. He got up and silently walked over to the dead bodies. He leaned his head over to their hearts, and listened for heart beats. He checked on everyone, and finally took Yusuke and Kurama in his arms. "Yukina, take Kuwabara. They're not dead, and we're going to Genkai's." With that he ran, faster than I could see, to Master Genkai's house. I ran over to Kazuma. Ripping a piece of fabric from my kimono, I wrapped it around his more serious wounds. I was not as strong as my brother, so I had to half-carry, half-drag Kazuma to Genkai's. I smiled as I heard his breathing, clearer and clearer.
