Continue reading. The names of the chapters will make sense soon. Yes,
though. This is another of my Hiei-centered fics. But it's spiritual,
really.

Death's Requiem Chapter Two: Burying
The night after Hiei preformed the Darkness technique...
Hiei held his arm, water was flying around his face. The pain, it was agonizing. Fire was burning the very marrow of his being. He could only take the pain so long. He tried to stay conscious but he knew that if he stayed awake, the pain would still be there. So what choice did he have? It was foolish, trying the Darkness technique. Why he had tried, he had no idea. Just to prove he was powerful. Just to show off. He tried to laugh, only for it to end in a low, painful moan. He hated his ego. Hiei stiffened. There was another presence nearby. He tried to turn, tried to look, but the pain of his arm was anchoring him to the rock. A cool hand on his shoulder made him flinch. "Do you want me to help you?" The voice was female, soft and quiet. He didn't know her. Hiei tried to respond, but couldn't. "If you want my help, you'll need to stand up. I can't help you unless you help yourself. Try to stand up." Hiei tried. His arm was a dead weight pulling him down. Slowly Hiei stood. Looking around, he saw the owner of the voice. She was dressed in black robes, her skin pale. Grey eyes seemed to reflect all the years of the world, and her black hair fell to her waist. Her question came again, "Do you want me to help you?" Hiei nodded, slowly. She moved her hand to his arm, concentrating. Slowly, the pain was lessening. He straightened, looking at his arm. It was still burnt. "I'm afraid I could only take away the pain. I wasn't able to heal it. But next time, it will heal quicker. Take care, Hiei." She walked away, but Hiei's yell kept her from going too far. "Who are you? And how do you know my name?" She shook her head, her expression saddened. "I cannot tell you who I am, but as for how I know your name, I have stood beside you many times before, though you have not seen me. I'll see you again, but not under favorable circumstances." She turned, nodded, and disappeared in a haze of smoke. Hiei stared, trying to understand what had happened. The fact the pain in his arm was gone proved that it had not been a dream, but what did she mean she would see him again? "Hiei?" Kurama's voice cut through the silence that Hiei had stood in. Hiei turned, pulling his cloak over his burnt flesh. "Hn, what are you doing here?" Hiei asked boredly. Kurama smiled slightly; it seemed like that expression never left his face. "I heard you yell. What about?" Hiei's mind raced, should he tell him? And would it matter? No, it wouldn't. "You're mistaken. I'm fine." Kurama tilted his head in a questioning manner, but didn't ask anything else. Instead, he started walking back to the hotel, "Hiei, it's getting late. Demons are around, they won't hesitate to kill you. You better come back to the hotel." Hiei walked, following Kurama.
