Chapter 7
Yoshihiro charged into Ruko's office, the darkness greeting him.
"Did you get both the things I have asked?" Came his masters voice.
"No sir." Yoshihiro replied with a smile on his face.
"Then why are you smiling?" he asked threateningly.
"Its Hiei Jagonshi. He has no clue that Kimura possesses the necklace of Takara, and neither does she. Hiei also has no clue that Shueisha is dead, or has a daughter."
"Hm.this could be an advantage. I want you and your men to spy on them for a bit. We don't want to keep attacking like this, or they might get suspicious. We will wait until they are caught off guard." Said Ruko rubbing his chin.
"Yes master." Yoshihiro said walking out the door with a bow.
Kimura listened to the guys talk about Hiei's strange behavior while she was riding on Kuwabara's back. He had offered to give her a piggy back ride considering Hiei had dropped her on her back.
"Did shortie ever tell you he had a master?" Kuwabara asked addressing Kurama. "No he didn't. it must have been hundreds of years before though." Answered Kurama. "I can recall him talking about how he was a forbidden child and grew up away from his village, but he never went into detail." Kurama continued as he looked at the ground.
"You still awake back there?" Kuwabara addressed Kimura. "Oh yeah.just thinking" Kimura replied. She was thinking very hard. That man, he knew my mother.he ..killed her. And he scared Hiei. I could see it in his eyes. He seemed so horrified. Who was this man in Hiei's past?
They finally reached Kimura's house. Kuwabara put Kimura down to her feet.
"Thank you Kuwabara." Kimura said with a smile. "Heh, any time." He replied.
They all stepped inside her house for some tea. "Mom? I'm home! I brought a few friends over." Kimura called.
"That's all right Kim-Chan I'm just working on the computer.more office work." Kimura's mother called out from the study.
"Ok, we'll go upstairs so we don't bother you." Kimura called back out to her mother.
They all went up to Kimura's room. SLAM! Everyone jumped and turned around. They found Hiei standing there with his hand still on the door. He had clearly been behind it.
"Hiei! Where have you been?" asked Yusuke yelling loudly.
"Something had come to my.attention." Hiei answered slowly.
Hiei didn't want anyone to know where he was. He had gotten a little suspicious about Yoshihiro's appearance and had been sneaking around looking at files in spirit world about the Necklace of Takara. Unfortunately the latest file was where it had been last located, in the cave where Hiei and his master found it over a hundred years ago. Nothing more than that. They didn't even have a record of it being taken out of there. and Hiei was definitely not going to tell anyone this.
Hiei wasn't exactly sure why Yoshihiro had came to him. Yes, him. He was sure he didn't want any one accept for him. He could tell that Yoshihiro didn't want to train Kimura like Hiei wanted, no not wanted, like he was going to. There was something much greater than that, that he wanted. And Hiei had a feeling it had to do with the necklace. He was hoping that maybe later he would find Shueisha so he could have the pleasure of killing her for his master's sake.
"Yoshihiro wants something." Hiei said walking over. "I have dealt with him before. He is an experienced, well trained person. He is very dangerous, and destroys anything or anyone that gets in his way. I don't have an exact reason why he is here. But I think we should be a little more cautious. It is clear he wants something, and no, it is not to train Kimura either."
"This sucks. Just when we were about to have some fun, now we have to be cautious!" Yusuke said in a whiney voice as he sat on the carpeted rug. "Well, Hiei might be right Yusuke. We should be a little more cautious." Said Kurama walking over to a small bouquet of roses that lay on Kimura's bedside table.
"Yeah but pacifier breath didn't even give us an assignment and now we need to do this ourselves!" Yusuke complained. "Do what?" Kuwabara asked sitting on Kimura's bed. "Yeah, he has a good point Hiei, what do we have to do?" Kimura asked looking desperately at him. His eyes staring back into hers. Hiei would always feel a jult in his stomach when this would happen and couldn't figure out why.
"We don't do anything. At least, not yet. There is nothing to do." He responded walking over to her window and looking out into the sky, watching the sun disappear into the darkness as stars appeared.
It was quiet for a moment, and then Kimura's stomach growled to break the silence. "jeeze! I'm so hungry.ill go down stairs and see what I could find for all of us. Ill be back." Kimura said with a smile, relieved to get out of the room while everything was at a strange and uncomfortable silence.
"For crying out loud we all need to lighten up and have some fun you guys.she just left us here all alone in her bedroom!" Yusuke said standing up in excitement looking at a bra that was hanging out of a closed drawer. "Ha! She should know better than to leave me in here!" Yusuke was now walking over to the black bra that was teasing him.
"I don't think Keiko would approve Urameshi." Kuwabara said folding his arms. "I have respect. It goes against my code to do anything like that." Yusuke rolled his eyes as he tugged it out of the drawer.
Hiei was secretly impressed by her wardrobe of black today, and now even more at the fact that her underwear was also black. "Yusuke, stop being arrogant, put it back." He said turning away from the window to look at Yusuke. He had seen him in the reflection. Hiei was in fact, saying this so his strange urge to look through all her drawers would disappear.
Yusuke, Hiei is right, put it back." Kurama replied looking at him with disapproval. "She needs to lean to trust us, and this isn't the best way to convince her. What would happen if Kimura walked in here now and saw you holding her one of her underwear?"
"Oh she won't." Said Yusuke with an evil smirk on his face. "Because your going to put it back right?" Hiei said very sternly standing up and walking over to him. "Nope.." Yusuke's grin widened. "..Because your going to be wearing it!" He yelled loudly tackling Hiei to the ground.
Hiei fell to Yusuke's body weight. "Kurama!" Yusuke yelled struggling to keep Hiei down. "Grab his arms!" to everyone's surprise, Kurama walked over and pinned Hiei's arms to the floor.
"Baka Kitsune! Let go!" Hiei spat, his jagon eye glowing, as he viciously struggled.
"Never Jagonshi!" Kurama called back with a teasing laughter in his voice.
" Hiei, don't worry we are going to make you look beautiful," Kuwabara laughed hysterically, watching Hiei actually struggle for once. He wanted to get in on the action so he walked over and held Hiei's feet.
Hiei now aggravated that Kuwabara was actually touching him finally struggled free and grabbed the bra from Yusuke. He stood up and started beating him hard with it. It left little whilp marks on Yusuke's cheek.
Hiei was about to pull his katana out and do serious damage when the door opened and Kimura walked in. Kimura stopped at the sight of Hiei frozen with her bra in one hand, and Yusuke's shirt collar in the other.
Hiei just stood there wide eyed. He didn't actually think she walk in on them like this. A sweat drop fell from Hiei's forehead. Kimura broke out into a laughing fit. She fell to her knees clutching her stomach.
"I'm sorry Hiei, but you looked so funny. It was like a deer caught in car headlights!" She whaled as everyone around Hiei started laughing as well. Hiei could here sniggers from Kurama. He turned to face him. Kurama was trying so hard to hold it in.he failed. Kurama joined Kimura on the ground laughing hysterically.
"Alright you guys." Kimura said struggling to get up. "My mom said you can all eat over. She had to leave to do some office work, but she left us money for a pizza. I called about fifteen minutes ago so it should be here any minute. Lets go downstairs." Kimura said running down her hallway to the stairs. Everyone followed. When they got to the stairs, Hiei pushed Yusuke causing him to roll down all 12 stairs. Yusuke landed hard on the floor, his lip bleeding. Hiei walked down the stairs and stepped over Yusuke going to join the others. Yusuke sat up and whipped his lip with his sleeve, and ran after Hiei.
The pizza finally arrived. Kimura walked back into the family room where Yusuke was lying on the couch laughing hysterically at sponge bob square pants, Hiei sitting in the bay window, Kurama leaning against a wall, and Kuwabara sitting on the floor watching TV With Yusuke.
Kimura placed the pizza boxes down on the table and everyone ran to grap a piece. Kimura walked into the kitchen to get soda, napkins, ans plates. She walked back out to find everyone eating accept for Hiei, who was still staring blankly out into the darkness. "Uh Hiei? Don't you want pizza?" Kimura asked walking over to him. "I don't eat ningen food." He said still looking into the darkness. "But pizza is the best!" Kimura ran over, got a plate and put pizza on it. She ran back to Hiei and put the plate on his lap. The sudden heat on Hiei's legs startled him. He looked down at it in discussed. He spat on it and looked away. "Fine, but we will get you to eat it by the end of tonight!" Kimura said with a grin and walked over to the pizza box. She pushed Yusuke's legs off the couch so she could sit down.
Kimura shoved her forth piece of pizza down , reaching for her fifth. Yusuke just stared at her. She stopped and looked back at him. Everything fell silent. Yusuke got up and knelt on the couch, never losing eye contact with Kimura. Kimura soon after, did the same. Yusuke pointed his index finger threateningly at the girl. "I challenge you." Yusuke said in a serious voice. "Bring it on!" Kimura yelled. This even made Hiei break away from the window to look at them
What the hell were they going to do? He thought to himself. Kimura and Yusuke gave one last threatening look at each other, and then dove for the pizza box eating the pizza as fast as they could. Hiei rolled his eyes in disgust and looked back out the window, his jagon glowing slightly. What was she doing right now. Hiei wondered to himself.
"My money is on Urameshi!" Kuwabara said banging his fist on the couch. "I have to disagree Kuwabara, Kimura is pacing herself. She will definitely win." Kurama said cheering Kimura on. A few seconds later, Yusuke fell off the couch holding his stomach moaning.
Kurama cheered as Kuwabara ran over to Yusuke in disbelief that he actually lost. Kimura stopped eating. "Yusuke.you don't look so good. Maybe you should lie down." Kimura said hopping off the couch and helping him climb on. Hiei jumped off the windowsill of the bay window. He walked over to the couch and looked down at Yusuke.
"Pathetic fool, you got yourself sick." Hiei said shaking his head annoyed. "How am I supposed to think with your meaningless moans? It won't do you any good. Just vomit and get it over with." Hiei said crossing his arms and tilting his head slightly to the right side looking up at the ceiling.
Yusuke put his hand to his mouth, jumped up, and ran toward the bathroom. "Gross." Kuwabara said looking after Yusuke. "Hiei that wasn't very nice." Kimura said looking worried. "Please, That fool has slaughter many dangerous foes, don't tell me he cant take regurgitating." Hiei said putting his arms in his pocket and sat down on the floor leaning his head back against the couch, closing his eyes.
Why is he like that? Why does he hate ningens? Kimura thought to herself. She looked over at Hiei. His eyes were still closed. She had a strange feeling he knew she was looking at him so she turned her attention to the hallway where Yusuke had ran. She hoped he found the bathroom.
She ran down the hallway to the bathroom. Sure enough, the door was closed. "er.Yusuke?" she asked knocking on the door. "are you alright?"
".yeah..I'm-alright." Yusuke's voice came feebly through the door. The doorknob turned and out walked Yusuke, who looked very pale, and lost his shirt. Kimura never knew that Yusuke was built the way he was. He looked so muscular. Kimura knew partly because of his job, but she was almost in aw.
"Im going to beat you sa bad next time.." Yusuke said with a feeble smile. "Ok sure." Kimura said patting him on his bare back. He was all sweaty. Kimura whipped her hand on her jacket and lead Yusuke back out into the family room. He lay back on the couch while Kimura went to the medicine cabinet and grabbed a bottle of pepto bismal. Kimura picked up the pizza boxes and went to throw them away, when she felt one of the boxes heavier. She opened the box to find one more piece. A wide grin grew across her face.
Kimura walked quietly over to Hiei, who still leaned against the couch with his eyes closed. She knelt down and drew her face close to his, the pizza clutched in her hand. Hiei opened one eye. "what the hell are you do-." Hiei's voice was muffed by a small piece of pizza that was shoved into his mouth. Hiei gagged as it started to slide down his throat. He chewed and swallowed it with a face telling Kimura he didn't enjoy it.
Kimura giggled. "I told you I would get you to eat some. Kurama and Kuwabara sniggered. "See? Isn't it good?" Kimura asked eagerly. "It will do. Hiei said difficultly as his stomach growled. Hiei clutched it and grabbed the slice of pizza out of Kimura's hand quickly startling her.
Kimura smiled. Hiei was tough and very rude, but if you knew how to handle him, he turned out alright.
Yoshihiro charged into Ruko's office, the darkness greeting him.
"Did you get both the things I have asked?" Came his masters voice.
"No sir." Yoshihiro replied with a smile on his face.
"Then why are you smiling?" he asked threateningly.
"Its Hiei Jagonshi. He has no clue that Kimura possesses the necklace of Takara, and neither does she. Hiei also has no clue that Shueisha is dead, or has a daughter."
"Hm.this could be an advantage. I want you and your men to spy on them for a bit. We don't want to keep attacking like this, or they might get suspicious. We will wait until they are caught off guard." Said Ruko rubbing his chin.
"Yes master." Yoshihiro said walking out the door with a bow.
