HIEI'S HYPNOSIS @.@

Chapter Deux: Hiei's Revenge

. . .

AN: Well I didn't think I would be doing a second part to this, but I got so many requests for a sequel that I decided I'd do one, so thanks to everyone for the encouragement, I'm so happy you liked my fic so much! ^_^

. . .

Hiei jumped from tree to tree, rooftop to rooftop, keeping a close eye on Yusuke's home. He knew they were keeping something from him--the only question was, what? He reached the end of the block and turned around, heading back towards the building Yusuke lived in. It pissed him off that there was something they weren't telling him.

He paused on the top of a chimney as he watched Botan, Kurama, and Kuwabara walk by. Botan was carrying the same tape that she had taken out of the video camera...that damn tape. There was something on that tape that none of them wanted him to see, he knew it. He certainly was no idiot--what kind of a fool did they take him for? Somehow he just had to get that tape from Botan...Kuwabara was just an incompetent half-wit; he would be easy to get rid of, and an empty threat would be enough to scare the woman into handing the tape over. But Kurama was a completely different story...

Deciding to take his chances anyway, Hiei jumped off the chimney, landing neatly on his feet right in front of the three--two of whom were taken by surprise.

"Oh hey Shorty, nice day, heh-heh..." Kuwabara sounded a little nervous...perfect. Hiei couldn't help but let a slight smirk cross his face. He glared at the three of them for a few seconds before pointing in a random direction behind them.

"Look, a distraction," he said calmly. Caught off gaurd, they all turned to look in the direction he was pointing. When they did, Hiei quickly snatched the tape from Botan and jumped back into the trees with a speed that only he posessed.

A split second too late (for that was all it took for Hiei to confiscate the tape and get away), Kurama was the first to realize they'd been tricked. It had caught him by surprise that Hiei would do something like that, so he couldn't help but look. Botan was next to realize this and she was also quick to discover what was missing.

"Oh, no!" She looked around desperately to make sure she hadn't just dropped the tape even though she knew full well what had happened. "The tape, it's gone!"

"This can't be good," Kurama remarked. "I can't say I wasn't expecting this, though."



"Oh, he's going to kill us when he watches that tape!" Botan moaned. She looked at Kurama hopefully. "Wait--he doesn't have a VCR, does he?"

"No," Kurama answered. "But that isn't going to stop him."

"Hey guys," came Kuwabara's voice from behind them, "I can't see the distraction, where is it?"

. . .

The door to Koenma's office opened and Hiei stepped inside. Koenma peered up at him over the many stacks of paperwork he had been neglecting lately.

"Hiei," he said, surprised. "What brings you here?"

"Hn. I need to use your VCR," he replied shortly.

"My VCR? Now why would you want to use that?" Koenma appeared to be quite confused. Hiei didn't seem like the kind of guy who liked to kick back and watch movies.

"What does anyone use a VCR for, I need to watch something."

"...Well...all right. But first, tell me--what on earth is it that you want to watch?"

Hiei glared at him before answering, "Yusuke, Kurama and those other fools are hiding something from me and I know that whatever it is, it's on this tape."

"Ooh, okay, why didn't you say that in the first place? Let's see it, Hiei, put the tape in! OGRE! BRING ME SOME POPCORN, CHOP-CHOP!"

"Yes, Koenma sir!" Came the voice of the blue ogre from another room. Hiei put the tape in, wishing Koenma would leave him to watch it alone but realizing it wasn't going to happen, and Koenma pressed play

The very first thing they saw was Hiei zonked out on the couch and everyone else cracking up...and Kuwabara was saying something... 'Come on, Urameshi, let's have some fun with him before you wake him up!' Hiei scowled at the television screen as Yusuke agreed after a moment's hesitation. From then on, Hiei's scowl continued to deepen with every passing minute of the tape. It was bad enough to have tried to kiss Kuwabara, but singing and DANCING?

Absolutely humiliating! And the fact that it had been Kurama's idea to make him sing only made matters worse. But then...then he saw the part where Kuwabara had the idea to make him think he had a boyfriend who broke up with him... Hiei didn't even get to the part where he had burst into tears (which may have been a very good thing). The minute he heard Kurama ask what was wrong, he had thrown his sword at the screen, smashing the glass and destroying it.

            Koenma's fits of laughter were cut short as he heard the destruction of his beloved television. "HIEI!" He shouted. "That was brand new!"

            But Hiei wasn't paying him the slightest bit of attention--instead, he ripped the tape out of the VCR (breaking that as well), snapped it in half, threw it onto the ground, spat on it, crushed it with his foot, set it on fire, and blew it into oblivion with his Sword of the Darkness Flame attack.

            'How dare they!' He thought savagely to himself. 'How dare they make a mockery of me! I'll kill them; I'll kill them all, and I'll do it slowly and painfully!' He stood over what was left of the tape--a burn mark on the floor--and thought of what he would do to them when he got his hands on them. Teeth and fists clenched, hatred burning in his eyes, he felt that simply ending their lives would not be nearly enough to satisfy him.

            Sensing that the situation was about to go way beyond control, Koenma decided that he should think of a solution before Hiei went out on a killing spree.

            "Now, Hiei, don't get any crazy ideas!" He warned. "I'm sure there's a way to get even without hurting anybody," he added. "In fact, I'd be happy to help you do it just as long as you promise not to kill anyone...Hiei...?"

            Hiei glared at him, still royally pissed off but not about to lose his cool just yet. He rather enjoyed the freedom he had, and wasn't about to jeopardize it by going berserk and slaughtering a few certain people. He actually began to think that maybe there WAS a way to get even without killing anybody...
