Rhythm: I figured y'all would probably appreciate it if I put this up too; cuz then you get to see at least some, very possibly all of the canon characters. Hiei? Would you do the honors? *gives a sweet angelic look*
Hiei: Hn. No.
Rhythm *gives a dark look* Please Hiei.
Hiei: Mmmm.. No.
Rhythm *growls, eyes narrow*
Hiei *yawns* Fine. Since you won't leave me be. Rhythm does not own Yu Yu Hakusho.
Rhythm *Big grin* I just like to borrow the characters and play with them! ^_^
Hiei *blinks* You do know how that sounds....?
Rhythm *evil grin* Of course! See? *taps Hiei on the nose* Tag! You're it! (What kind of idiot am I? Tag with Hiei? X_x) For those who read my other story, I'm not intending for this one to interrupt the flow of the other one--
Seto: What are you talking about flow? How long did you go without updating until recently?!
Rhythm *frowns* Shuddup. As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted *glares at Seto* It may look as though this one is getting updated a bit more- only because I have the chapters already written down in a book- all I've got to do with them is type them up; the other one I'm writing as I go along. Hopefully if I have two stories to work on here, my writers block won't attack me. *looks around, then at Hiei and Seto, sighs and calls into a different room* Hey Kurama; could you come here and keep my writers block away? Please?
Kurama *enters the room* Of course.
Rhythm: Gracias.
Kurama: De nada.
Chapter 2- In which help arrives.
The 'guy's' voice rumbled when he answered the man behind them, "Stay out of it." The girl glanced over, a tall man with long very red hair stood, accompanied by a shorter man with really spikey black hair. The thing holding her moved his gaze over to them and tensed, unconciously, he held the girl closer to him, turning so that she was between he and the two men who were interfering. "K-Kurama; H-Hiei... What are you two doing here?"
The shorter man released a sigh, "That's no matter." He said simply, as he pulled a sword that glinted in the faint moonlight, a katana.
The red haired man pulled a rose from his hair, gently holding it in one hand; but his face was drawn and hard, "You see, the question should be... How long have we *been* here."
The 'guy' who by now had claws tightened his grip in the girls hair; she felt something give way, and a bit of blood trickle down her neck from her scalp. She mentally cringed, but kept her face expressionless. Foremost in her mind at the moment was the red head's state of mind... He'd pulled a flower at a fight. Though the next thing she knew, he had a long green thorny whip. Who knew? Maybe she'd just hit her head a little bit harder than she thought. The things grip in her hair tightened again, and a clawed hand curled around her throat, starting to dig in, putting a strain on her breathing. "I was just gonna help her into her car. Make sure that these two idiots don't hurt her no more."
She opened her mouth to interject, but released only a sort of squeak/groan as the things hand tightened a bit more. "Hn." The shorter man, who looked completely careless, said adding simply, "We've been here far long enough to know better than that."
The girl realized that it had been the red haired man with the whip that had spoken first, as he repeated what he'd said to begin with. "Release her. I won't give you another warning."
"And what is going to stop you from killing me if I do let the onna go?" The thing rumbled, "I don't feel much like dying tonight." She glanced over to see that the other two creatures were acting skittish, almost as if they wanted to run.
The man with the sword gave the demons a cold smile, "But what's going to stop us if you don't?" He moved his sword as he spoke to the red head, "All three at once?" He asked.
"No." The red head replied, then to the demon said, "I'm certain you know you'll be dead before you do anything else to her." She heard a sharp crack, then the pressure on her throat and the grip in her hair released. The body collapsed behind her. Its head, which looked distinctly inhuman with its horns, fangs and almost piglike nose fell to the ground in front of her. She stared at it blankly, still trying to fight the darkness which was slowly closing in on her. She backed up, until she bumped something; sending pain shooting through her severely bruised back. It took her a full minute to realize that what she'd bumped was her car; and that she'd sank down to the ground beside it. She absently brought a hand up to her forehead, feeling the cut that was still letting blood ooze down her face. She hissed in slight pain as her fingers grazed it. Still sticky. Bringing her hand down, she found it came back covered in red.
"That's probably not such a good thing." She murmured to herself. She flinched as another of the creatures tumbled to the ground in front of her. The shorter guy took off after the third. Then, as the red haired man came into her line of vision; the darkness won.
Kurama caught the girl before she collapsed into the snow, steadying her against the car. He pulled a small photograph from his jacket pocket studying it for a moment and then studying the bruised and bloodied girl before him. One and the same, of that he was certain. He'd watched her in the mall, he and Hiei had been trying to find the best moment to speak with her- they hadn't noticed the other three demons following her. But he hadn't expected her to realize that someone was watching her, nor had he expected her to take off outside when she did. What had caught both he and the fire youkai off guard though was how well she managed to hold her own against three demons. Though he could tell that after she'd been dropped to the ground on her back- it had just been instinct- there was no thinking involved. Humans got the fight or flight instinct- and she knew she'd never be able to outrun them. So she'd just automatically fought.
Hiei appeared in front of him, the fire demon looking down at the girl nestled in Kurama's arms. "Right ningen?" He asked.
Kurama nodded, "It appears so." He handed Hiei the photograph.
Hiei scoffed, "Why must all these ningens smile like fools in pictures?" He asked, a typical sneer on his own lips.
Kurama chuckled, "It's what they're supposed to do Hiei. Photos for happy memories."
"Hn." Hiei replied, rolling his crimson eyes in typical Hiei annoyance, "Come on Kitsune; We'll take her to Genkai."
The Kitsune nodded in agreement. "We can go get Koenma when she wakes up, or even take her to him."
The dark haired demon looked the human girl over quickly, "She didn't do bad. For a weak ningen onna. After she got that-" he gestured to the deep cut on the girls forehead, "I was surprised when she got back up. I'm not sure the fool could get up after that even with his hard head." (Sorry any Kuwa fans; it is Hiei!)
"No Hiei, she didn't do bad at all." Kurama quietly replied, "Let's get her to Genkai." he lifted the girl and they moved to a nearby portal.
