Chap 15
Kimura awoke, and turned to look at the clock. It was about 8:00 am. She sighed and got out of bed. She felt a shiver run down her spine. "Someone is here." She said quietly. She tiptoed cautiously over to her dresser, turning to the doorway every so often to make sure no one was behind her. She bent down, and pulled out her sword from underneath. She stood up, and tip toed down stairs.
A black figure walked by, and she jumped on its back, knocking it over onto its stomach. She turned it around and held her sword to its head, to find it was Hiei.
"hn. I let you do that."
"Hiei? What are you doing here? You scared me!"
"Hn. Someone had to watch you. You passed out as a cat. I was studying your demon form."
"This is really weird, then it wasn't a dream. Whats wrong with me Hiei? I bet no one else is like this. Its just really weird that's all..c'mon, ill go make breakfast.
Kimura walked into the kitchen, and Hiei walked behind her. He sat down at the kitchen table and put his feet up. Kimura looked in the fridge. She pulled out the left over pizza, and took out two plates. She gave a piece to Hiei, and to herself. Hiei watched her eat. "Hiei...are you going to eat?" Kimura asked finishing her piece. "No." Hiei replied looking around. "er...ok then..." Kimura said getting up from the table. "Hey Hiei? Did you ever think about wearing..normal clothes?" Kimura asked. "Hn. Why would I want to wear ningen clothes?" Hiei asked raising his right eyebrow. "I dunno I just thought you would look cool in like jeans and stuff..." Kimura said with a smile. "Hn."
Kimura left the kitchen, running upstairs to her mothers room. She went into the closet, and pulled out her cousin's pants he had left over her house a year ago. They looked about Hiei's size. She giggled and ran back down stairs, chucking the pants in Hiei's face. He caught them, and stared. "What the hell do you want me to do with these?" Hiei asked. "Put them on!" Kimura said smiling.
"No."
"Please."
"No."
"Aw c'mon Hiei."
"No"
"Do it before I tell everyone including Yukina you have a crush on her!"
"That's sickening."
"I know...just do it!"
Hiei groaned, then got up looking at the pants. Kimura smiled then turned around. She could here Hiei's belts clinging as they hit the floor. A few minutes later, Kimura turned around to find Hiei folding his arms and the death look expression on his face. She started to laugh. "You look great Hiei...accept...the cloak and shirt don't go with low rider boot cut jeans." Kimura said smiling. "NO!" Hiei said. "Please...c'mon...just a shirt..." Hiei roled his eyes, and took off his cloak and shirt. "damn!" Kimura said to herself. "He looks so sexy in those! Maybe I shouldn't give him a shirt."
"Are you going to gove me a shirt?" Hiei asked impatiently.
"What? Oh yeah! Come with me." Kimura walked out into the hall way to the small closet. She opened the door and walked inside. Hiei followed. "Wait Hiei! stop the door!" Kimura yelled. Hiei ran to it, but it was to late, the door already closed. He tried to open the door, but it wouldn't open. "The door is jammed from the inside." Kimura said. Hiei tried to kick it opened, but the room was so small, he couldn't lift his leg all the way to reach it. "You have got to be kidding me." Hiei said sitting down. "Why is it so hot in here?" Hiei asked. "were over the room with my drier...im drying all the towels and stuff...wow your hot, but you're a fire demon" Kimura said sarcastically sitting down across from him. "Hn." "I guess we will just have to wait until Yusuke gets here...he's coming around... two." Kimura said.
Minutes passed, and the heat was getting unbearable, making both Hiei and Kimura feel very sleepy, and feel like they were running out of air. "You're an ice demon, make it cold." Hiei said sleepily. "I cant...im too tiered." Kimura replied. "Hey Hiei?" "Yeah?" Hiei asked opening his eyes to look at Kimura, "What am I?"
Hiei sat up straiter and looked at Kimura a little confused, and speechless. "...We're trying to figure this out. Its nothing abnormal, it just doesn't happen... that often." Hiei replied looking down at his dragon tattoo. He looked up to find a tear running down Kimura's cheek. Hiei looked at her wit a questioning look. "I...I...dont know Hiei...whats going on? I don't understand, I just want to be normal again." Kimura said whipping off the tear. Hiei looked at her, very serious. "Kimura...What is normal? There's no such thing. Your like this all your life, and you have to deal with it. You should be thankful your not just another common ningen. You should take this as an opportunity to figure out what you can do. You have so much, don't ever wish to be like a low class fool.
"You know Hiei, you have a nasty way of putting things, but I know you mean well... if there was anyone else to get stuck in a closet with, you would be my first choice." Kimura said. She crawled over and wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her head on his bare chest. Hiei's eyes widened, and his heart skipped a few beats, but Hiei slowly wrapped his arms around Kimura, and leaned his head against the wall. Hiei felt Kimura get suddenly heavier than before. He looked over, and found her asleep. Hiei sat Kimura up and leaned her against his shoulder, brushing the bangs out of her eyes. He heard something jingling coming from somewhere on Kimura, and noticed a long chain that was hanging from her neck. Hiei carefull reached over and started to pull it out of her shirt slowly. He felt it was very heavy, and kept looking at Kimura to make sure she did not wake up. He was getting closer and closer to the pendant or what ever it was that was dangling off the chane. "Almost there"...BOOM! Hiei jumped backward, and Kimura woke up with a start. "What the hell was that?!?" Hiei asked.
"Hiei!?!? Kimura!?!?!?" a familiar voice came from the outside of the closet. "were in here!!!!!!!" Kimura yelled banging on the door. Yusuke ran over and opened the door. Kimura and Hiei both fell out of the closet, onto Yusuke's feet. "Im not even going to ask." Yusuke said. "Nice low rider jeans Hiei." Yusuke said with a smirk.
Yusuke whats wrong?" Kimura asked. "ok you guys cannot panic, but Kurama was... well he was badly hurt...buthesfinenow!" Yusuke said incredibly fast, trying to avoid all questions asked.
"what? How did it happen? Where the hell is he?" Hiei yelled. "He was attacked by demons probably sent from Yoshihiro guy.I found him in his house, he asked me to get you and to bring you over right away Hiei." Yusuke said very seriously. Hiei looked at Kimura, then at Yusuke. "I want to come too!" Kimura said "NO!...i mean." Yusuke started, "its too dangerous!" Hiei looked at Yusuke very suspiciously. Kimura thought that Hiei would surely kill him for that, usually it was Hiei who said it first. "Perhaps Yusuke may have feelings for me as well?"
"He's right Kimura, there could be more.I want you to stay here, where its safe." Hiei said. "No Hiei im coming!"
"Just listen to me!"
"I WILL NOT BE TREATED LIKE SOME CHILD!"
...
Hiei fell silent, then looked at the ground. It one swift movement, Hiei held Kimura over his shoulder, Kimura kicking and screaming the whole way. Hiei dropped her into the closet, then quickly slammed the door.
"Hiei you bastard! LET ME OUT!!!!" Kimura screamed at the top of her lungs banging on the door. "Ok Yusuke, lets go." Hiei said, running out the door as fast as he can with Yusuke right behind him. Hiei and Yusuke arrived at Kurama's, and Hiei kicked down the door as hard and as fast as he could. The door fell to the ground with a loud thud, and Hiei walked inside. Kurama stood there, frozen in shock as to what he had just seen. His hand was frozen in the air, and was curved like he was holding something. Sure enough, no the ground lay a shattered tea mug, tea spilt all over the floor.
"H..Hi-Hiei? Is there a ...problem?" Kurama asked in shock. Hiei looked around suspiciously, then looked at Kurama. There was a silence, and then, a moan of pain from Yusuke.
Yusuke looked down to find Hiei's sword strait through his stomach, to the hilt. Hiei was still holding the sword firmly and tight, digging it in as far as he can.
"HEIE!!!" Kurama yelled. Hiei pulled the sword out, causing Yusuke to fall to the ground. Hiei turned around and gave Kurama a questioning look. "W-what...are you..doing?" Kurama asked even more shocked.
"don't be so gullible as to believe this impostor Kurama.." Hiei said looking down in disgust. He looked back. "he was faster than Yusuke, and his energy was weaker.. This is nothing but a shape shifter." The demon started to laugh. Hiei and Kurama looked down. "you....very... foolish." He said, purple blood spitting out for his mouth. "What?" Hiei said . "you...left...the girl...where is she now?" Hiei's eyes widened. He flew out the door, leaving Kurama confused, and the dying demon.
Kimura awoke, and turned to look at the clock. It was about 8:00 am. She sighed and got out of bed. She felt a shiver run down her spine. "Someone is here." She said quietly. She tiptoed cautiously over to her dresser, turning to the doorway every so often to make sure no one was behind her. She bent down, and pulled out her sword from underneath.
