Chapter Six: Short-lived Revenge
"Where is the bastard!?!" Hiei cursed to himself as he shot through the forest like a bullet. The others had remained in their refuge to tend to Kurama's injuries while the enraged fire youkai went ahead to finish the search for their friend's relentless attacker. "When I find the one who is doing this he will be the one begging for death's early arrival." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Don't get up," Kuwabara warned Kurama when the Fox finally came to. Kuwabara couldn't tell if he was disoriented or just plain out ignoring him as Kurama propped himself up with his right arm. "Kurama!"
"It's not...that bad..." Kurama lied blatantly.
"You heard 'im, don't get up," Yusuke threatened, but Kurama still wouldn't listen. "Man, what's wrong with you? Don't make me shoot you to keep you down." Kurama looked up wearily too see Yusuke's index finger pointing straight at him, giving off a faint glow of blue light. Kurama slowly let himself back down, gently lying on the hard ground. "Why are you being so damn stubborn Kurama?" Yusuke asked when he was sure that the former thief wouldn't get back up.
"I don't know," he replied, his voice was weak. He was telling the truth though, it was almost as if nothing was registering in his mind properly that morning. His body may have been in the cave with his two concerned friends, but his mind was only half present. It was the same feeling as just waking up from a peaceful night's rest, half there, half still lost in the dream. But Kurama's rest had been anything but peaceful, and the nightmare was the last thing he still wanted to be locked in.
"Yeah, well, your not going anywhere until a while later," Yusuke said. Kurama had already explained to all three what had occurred. He had been slightly surprised by Hiei's reaction, and his sudden leave of the cave.
"Where's Hiei?" Kurama asked.
"Probably out knocking the crap outta some demon, or burning a village, he could be beginning the next apocalypse for all we know," Yusuke answered jokingly, "Just taking out some frustration. He'll be back once his mass murder streak is over." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You know who's coming don't you, Chisa?" Nobuaki said darkly to his sister.
"Hiei?" she replied, her interest perked. Nobuaki nodded. "Can I play with him?"
"Do what you want. For being the eldest you are the most immature out of all three of us ever were, you do know that don't you?" Nobuaki complained, wishing to himself that his sister would take their job more seriously then she had been. "I suppose that if you do you'll want me to take part in it as well?"
"Of course, how could I leave my little brother out of all the fun?" she replied playfully. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hiei stopped abruptly. He could sense the two. They were waiting for him, they already knew he was going to be there. Hiei felt his jagan flare with rage beneath the white cloth that concealed it.
"Your Hiei correct?" a playful female voice called from around the clearing he had stopped in.
"It won't matter who I am after I kill you," he replied back challengingly, his anger rising.
"Must be. You have the shitty attitude down perfectly!" she said.
"Get down here so I can slice you in the same manner that you have Kurama!" Hiei yelled.
"Jeeze your such an impatient bastard!" Chisa yelled back as she jumped from her perch in a nearby tree. Hiei shot her one of his patented death glares and silently grasped the hilt of his sword firmly. Chisa walked toward him slowly.
"Your eager to die then?" Hiei said with a smirk. Once she was in his range he pulled his sword from it's sheath fast as lightning and swung at her. It was meant to be a final blow, severing her upper body from her legs in one clean swipe. It was meant to kill her.
But it didn't.
"Crap Hiei you wanna end it so soon? You take all the fun out of my game!" Chisa complained, pulling her ebony shirt from her body, examining the slice in it with disapproval. The tear's fringes were stained lightly by her glistening blood. The wound was so small, however, it wouldn't have effected her as much a paper cut would have.
"Then it's a game of cat and mouse, I'm the cat you're the pathetic mouse. You better start begging for mercy now," Hiei replied, anger over flowing in his voice that his attack missed. Hiei prepared for another assault. He ran at her quickly, then seemingly disappeared. Chisa looked around frantically, her eyes unable to keep up with the fire youkai's unmatched speed.
"Your speed is impressive Hiei," Chisa said, then turned around and jumped back, "but my brother's tricks are superior to your blind strength!" Hiei's sword flew through the air that was once occupied by the lovely demon girl. Hiei cursed under his breath when he saw that she had narrowly escaped his wrath again.
"Is your ass hole brother too weak to come out and fight on his own?" Hiei asked, his short fuse about to burn out.
"You've got a short temper dontcha?" Chisa teased, only angering Hiei more. She jumped from his next attack again.
"Is that all your capable of? Pathetic dodging?!" Hiei fumed at the giggling girl.
"I've never had an invitation to start attacking someone before," she answered, perplexed at his statement, "but if you want me to go on the offensive..." She held up her slender hands, and her crimson nails began to pulsate dimly. She crossed her hands over her chest and closed her deep red eyes.
"You think you can win by standing stationary and closing your damn eyes?!" Hiei yelled as he ran toward her. At the last second before Hiei began his attack her eyes shot open, glowing blood red.
"Actually, I believe I can!" She answered and swung her arms forward. Arrows emanated from her nails and homed in on Hiei. In a split second Hiei had evaded, to him, the sluggish attack and was far harm's way. The arrows flew through the space he was just in and continued to fly in a straight line.
"Fool, you think you can defeat me with such a slow attack?" Hiei taunted confidently.
"Idiot, do you think I'm stupid enough to attack someone with your speed with an attack such as that?" Chisa spat back and smirked. Hiei stared at her. Her attention was else where, no longer on him. He followed her eyes and saw the bright reflection of the arrows in her eyes. Hiei's head darted to where her concentration was and realized the arrows had changed course, were coming back at him. Faster then before.
"What?!" he gasped as the group of arrows split in two, one half maneuvering to behind him and the second half coming head on. They were picking up speed, like a human falling to Earth. Hiei grinned, her timing was poor. He could easily evade the projectiles with the time he had discovered them. When the arrows were only feet away from the cocky fire demon he tried to leap out of the way.
But he couldn't move.
"What the -" Hiei barely managed to get out before the arrows plowed into his back and chest one barely a second after the other. Hiei's eyes widened. The arrows pierced his body as small trickles of blood began to flow from his wounds. After seconds of being protruding through him they gave off tiny explosions and disappeared. Hiei was in disbelief. 'Why the hell couldn't I move?!' Hiei wondered fiercely.
'Because I'm here. Her "pathetic" brother isn't so weak now is he?' Nobuaki's sly voice rang through Hiei's head.
"Where are you?!" Hiei demanded viciously.
"Like he'd tell you," Chisa interrupted. Hiei looked back at her, a look of loathing spread across his face. "Oh scary faces. I thought we were older then that." she continued pushing him.
"Your more like a teenage girl then a demon!" Hiei fumed, and ripped the white band away from his jagan. The eye glowed violently, and he charged at her again, faster then her eyes could follow.
"Same old stunt!" she claimed assured that she would now what he was going to do next. 'Where's he going to come from Nobu?' She asked her brother inside her mind.
'I...'
'Well?'
'I can't tell...'
'YOU WHAT?!' Chisa screamed in her head.
'He, I mean, his eye, I can't tell any more..'. Nobuaki pleaded with his temperamental sister.
"Lost your precious perception?" Hiei taunted. Chisa turned at the last second to face him, and he deeply grazed her left arm.
"Dammit..." She said darkly. "Nobuaki you bastard! I'm gonna kick your sorry ass!"
"Not so helpful anymore is he?" Hiei glared.
'I'm leaving...' Nobuaki told his sister.
"WHAT?! Your gonna leave me here to die?! You bastard!" Chisa yelled, and started to retreat into the deep forest surrounding them. Hiei began to follow her, but stopped slowly at the call of his name in Yusuke's voice. The fire demon reluctantly turned to face the annoying teen, letting the duo escape further into the catacomb-like woods.
