Chapter 4: Confessions And Answers
"What?" Yuusuke yelled, "Hiei and that Katie girl were kidnapped?"
Kaita nodded, her expression one of pure worry.
"How?" Kuwabara asked, "Shorty may be an idiot, but he's strong enough to take care of himself. I don't know of many demons that could take him."
"What exactly happened?" asked Kurama.
"Well, I was coming out of the Makai when I felt Hiei's ki nearby. Suddenly, it dropped dramatically. I was worried, so I followed his ki. As I got closer, I also felt Katie's faint human ki. I found them just as a demon was closing a doorway to the Makai. I saw Hiei and Katie, bound and unconscious before the doorway closed." Kaita sighed and ran her hands through her purple hair, which has gotten lighter because of stress.
"It's ok, Kaita," Kurama reassured her, "There was nothing you could have done."
Yuusuke was internally shocked. He had never seen Kaita act even slightly less than cool, let alone act stressed enough to change her hair. He had come to expect her and Hiei to be the ones with the slightly rude, but sometimes-funny comments. But now she didn't even seem capable of smirking.
"Well, we can't just leave Shorty and the girl in the Makai," Kuwabara said.
"Yes," Kurama nodded, "But the Makai is a huge place. There are about a million places a demon clan could hide. Kaita, you know the Makai the best of all of us. Where do you think they could be?"
"No where," Kaita replied as she stared into space. All of her partners stared at her. She looked up into their questioning faces, "They're not in the Makai. They're in the land between the Makai and the Ningenkai. You know, where Hanging Neck Island is." (I'm not sure if that's in the Makai, the Ningenkai, or a land between. Plz tell me where it is.)
"But why?" asked Yuusuke.
Kaita answered slowly, trying to think while she talked, "I think that the girl is a portal controller. That means she can create holes in the dimensions and can travel around freely. The demons she was taken by probably work for another man like Sakio. (For anyone who doesn't know who that is, he's a guy who tried to create a permanent portal between the Makai and the Ningenkai during the Dark Tournament...I think) If they know that Katie is a portal controller, then all they would have to do is figure out how to get her to use all her energy in one boost. The massive energy loss would most likely kill her, but it would also create a permanent gateway between the Makai and the Ningenkai.'
"And then we could say goodbye to our normal, demon free lives," Yuusuke said sarcastically.
"But I still don't see how Hiei fits into this whole thing!" yelled Kuwabara, "Why was he taken by the demons too?"
"He was trying to save Katie," Kaita said in exasperation.
"But why?" Kuwabara and Yuusuke asked in unison.
"Bakas," muttered Kaita, "If you two had any observation skills, you would know he was in love."
* * * * *
Katie woke up with a throbbing headache. Her right hand was holding something very warm. She looked down, and realized she was holding Hiei's hand. Blushing furiously, she pulled her hand away. Then she noticed that there was a small pool of blood on the floor around Hiei.
"Oh no," Katie whispered as she ripped off part of her school skirt. She used the scrap to clean up the blood that had collected on the floor. Then she took off Hiei's coat to clean the blood off his wound. When she got the caked blood off the wound, it began to bleed again. She quickly applied pressure to stop the bleeding. She only took off the pressure as soon as the bleeding stopped.
Katie sighed from part relief and part fear. Then she realized how peaceful Hiei looked as he lay there. She ran his hand over his cheek. It was so hot that it almost burned her skin. 'He must be feverish,' she thought. But then she ran her hand down his chest and discovered that his whole body was this spiking degree. 'How can anyone live with this heat? Any normal person would be dead or at least in the hospital.'
But she didn't have time to wonder. Suddenly, the door of her cell opened. A tall man stood in the doorway. He wore a business suit and his hands were in his pockets. His expression was one of internal satisfaction. (Try to picture Sakio when he appears during the episode The Beginning of the End during the Dark Tournament Saga.).
Katie tired to look menacing, but was too scared to manage anything above looking extremely annoyed.
"You're awake," he said, "Good. We were worried the blow would have you out for several more hours."
"I wish it did," Katie said, voice shaking, "I'd rather be asleep or dead than here."
"That can be arranged in time," the man smirked. Katie didn't like that look. "Guards." he said.
He was flanked by five demons. They moved in and grabbed Katie's arms. She tried to fight them off, but they were too strong for her. She went limp so that it would be harder for the carry her. They lifted her off the ground with ease.
"No! Stop!" she yelled and started to kick them. They carried her out of the room, seemingly oblivious to her onslaught.
"Katie," Hiei murmured weakly as the door was slammed shut. He rolled over onto his side.
Katie screamed, "Leave me alone!"
The demons and the man leading them ignored her. They carried her into a room and dropped her onto the floor. Her hands were tied behind her back and she was pulled to her feet.
In a chair in front of her on a platform sat a man with long silver hair. He looked human, but Katie wasn't sure. There were two jagged scars on his cheeks, but otherwise he was quite handsome.
"Forgive the rough treatment, Katie," said the man. His voice was silky and deep. Katie thought that, if he hadn't kidnapped her, she would have been inclined to trust him.
"I'll forgive you when you let Hiei and me go!" She spat.
"Sorry," the man said. He got up and walked over to her. He studied her face for a second.
"Koi, are you sure this girl is the portal controller?" He asked.
The other human man stepped up, "Yes, Bito. I've seen her use her powers myself."
Seemingly satisfied, Bito went back to his chair again.
"Katie," he said, "I believe you deserve and explanation about why this is happening to you, of all people. You see, you are blessed with the power to open doorways to other worlds. This power, I must say, is very rare and can only be found in one person in every one hundred generations. We call this power being a portal controller. Now, there are people who wish to use your powers for only their benefit. But I plan to use your powers to open a permanent portal between the Makai and the Ningenkai. I assure you this would be for the ultimate good of all."
"All you had to do was ask to use my powers if you wanted to do this," Katie said.
Bito sighed, "There is, unfortunately, a problem with this plan. It's something you may not be all together fond of. You see, this plan has a ninety-nine percent chance of killing you."
Katie laughed in shock, "What? You're joking!" When she saw that Bito's expression didn't change she sighed, "I'm blessed, huh? Well, I don't think so. I think of this as more of a curse."
Bito scowled at her impudence, "It's obvious you don't see how beneficial this is. Your death will give others a chance to live freely."
"Tell that to my mom!" Katie yelled, "Tell that to the people who care for me! How do you think they'll take this?"
Bito ignored her. "Take her back to her cell," he commanded.
Katie was dragged out of the room.
