I am back! Listening to Evanescense's 'Tourniquet,' which reminds me of
Hiei. Sick huh? Wait till you read that fic. I'll be flamed for sure.
Anyway, I'm glad you reviewed. Hiei's awake now, and Yukina's about to make
her move. Enjoy!
Don't Own Yu Yu Hakusho
Embracing the Ice Knife: Denied
Hiei tried to sit up. Why couldn't he move? Thoughts of what happened suddenly made themselves known, and he felt his anger and hate return. He pushed them down inside himself. Far down. No one would ever touch them. He became a creature of ice, his eyes cold, his voice sharp, his whole body stiff. "Let me up Kurama. I don't want my revenge until he's ready to face me. I have other matters that need to be taken care of. Let me go." Kurama looked at Hiei, suddenly scared. Hiei had made himself have no feelings, no pain, no nothing. He was more dangerous now than he was when he was angry. Because now, he would kill and not look back. "I can't do that Hiei. You'll hurt someone or yourself if I let you go. You can't, I'm sorry." Hiei knew that the things binding him were flameproof vines. He smirked. Unknowing to Kurama, he started to burn the vines with the darkness flame. "Kurama, I want nothing to do with Kuwabara. I want to see Yukina." Kurama shook his head. "No one knows where she is. Yusuke's looking for her right now. But after Kuwabara told her, she ran off." The door opened, and Yukina stepped in. Her face was calm, but like Hiei's, she had none of her usual emotions showing. "Can I speak with him?" Kurama nodded. Yukina continued. "Kurama, are the vines necessary? I'll make sure he doesn't do anything." Kurama, against his better judgement, released the vines that bound Hiei. He left the room, leaving to find Yusuke.
Hiei sat on the bed, Yukina settled in a chair. Hiei kept his face neutral, waiting for Yukina to speak first. And she did. "The pain of keeping that secret must have been immense. I don't know how you managed. I would have told you if the positions were reversed long ago. I'm not saying that what Kuwabara did was right. You should have been the one that told me. But he did, and now we're here, trying to figure out what should happen now." Hiei looked away. "I didn't want you to know. I was protecting you from myself. You deserved to have a better dream of a brother than the grim harshness of reality. That was why I didn't tell you, because I was ashamed." Yukina tilted her head. She had him now. "Ashamed of what?" "Of the fact that I am a killer, a ruthless murderer who has been convicted, and captured by a human. Hiei, who is a thief, liar and assassin. You deserve better than that." Yukina's face shone fiercely. Her true emotions came out. She was harsh. "You're right, I do deserve better. Never, in all the three realms, would I have wanted you for a brother. I would have picked anyone over you. I will never recognize you as my brother, Hiei. Never, ever, call me sister. Because I am not yours." She turned, and left the room. Hiei sat on the bed, shaking. He had expected this, but had never imagined it would hurt this bad. He turned, jumped through the window, and ran for the cave Kurama had shown him.
Kurama and Yusuke were headed towards the room Yukina and Hiei were when they bumped into Yukina rounding a corner. They were surprised, where was Hiei? Upon asked, she smiled sweetly. "I don't know, he stayed in the room after we finished talking." Yusuke was impatient, and asked a question. "Are you two ok? Did you work it all out?" Yukina smiled again, but Kurama didn't like it. It was a poisonous smile, ready to take you in and betray you. "Yes, we reached an understanding. Excuse me, I have to go take care of my plants." She continued walking, and as soon as she was out of sight Kurama spoke lowly to Yusuke. "Did you see her smile, hear the tone of her voice? Something went wrong. I can feel it. We gotta go see Hiei, he'll be more emotional than she at this point." "Agreed." They finished walking to the room the siblings had been in, and when they reached it, they immediately knew something was wrong. Hiei wasn't there, and the glass in the window was shattered. Who knew where he had gone? ~*~ I've totally destroyed Hiei! I love torturing my favorite characters! Yukina is as cold as the snow she is named after. And now, review for the finale!
