Chapter 4: Offers of Danger
Hiei P.O.V.
Koenma is screaming at me in his office. I can't hear him, as I have just found out I have a telepathic connection with Yaru in my head. I ask her to come. When she asked me why, I let her hear the commotion around me, or at me. She mentally winces, and cuts the link. I come back to the real world, noticing that Koenma is no longer screaming at me, but at a passing ogre carrying papers for his Royal Pacifier to stamp. I sigh, and say in a sharp tone, "She's coming, so shut it, baby." I let sarcasm drip on my last word, and Koenma turns red. Whether from embarrassment or anger, I never found out, because Yaru burst in the room. Everyone gaped at her, except me, who knew that Yaru had a portal to the Sprit World in her house.
After a pause, the baby asks Yaru to sit down. She stays standing and glares at Koenma, who slightly shrinks back. After another silent period during which all of us had the pleasure of seeing the baby nearly wet his pants, Koenma hesitantly said, "We would-If you could-um..." Yaru growls at him, "No, I will not be a Sprit Detective, because I don't want to, and because I have better things to do then go around killing troublemaking demons...unless I feel that I need to kill someone." Here, she looks at Kuwabaka, Yusuke, and Koenma, and they all squirm to my delight.
H: Let me have a turn! (A.N. That sounded really childish...exactly the way I want it!!!!)
Y/SK: NO!
H: * grumble grumble *
As Yaru leaves the baby's office, Kurama and I follow after her.
SK: Hiei?
H: Hn?
SK: Did you notice anything...strange around your eyes when you were in Koenma's office? Because they changed around the time where Koenma was going banshee on you...
Hiei: ...how?
SK: They turned...blue.
I was shocked. Yaru's eyes were blue, and I had been talking to Yaru...
Kurama P.O.V
I watched in slight puzzlement as Hiei took off. Then, I went home. I took the long way home this time, and I actually avoided ¾ of my fan club. The other quarter chased me to my house, and banged on my front door for a while. However, after I called the police, they left. I sat down on the couch, my legs and heart very tired from running. I fell asleep on the couch.
* Kurama's Dream *
I see the silver kitsuine again. But this time, she's a baby, and I'm a tiny Youko playing with her. Then, I fall backward into a room. There is a movie showing me and the other kitsuine growing up; playing together, and I look happy and joyful. Then, things start to speed up, and I find myself looking at the scene where she's dieing, but I not there. She falls through the screen, onto the ground in front of me. Her blood rises from her dead body and falls over me, submerging me in a wave of acidly blood threatens to drown- and dissolve- me. Just before I give up, I hear the voice again... "Watch for me, my cousin!"
* End Dream *
I was on the ground, gasping for the air that had been kept from me by a dream. I staggered to my bathroom mirror. As I checked my face for the burning acid that had nearly killed me, I remembered it was a dream. Yet, as I staggered out of the bathroom, I felt a dull ache on my ankle. I sat on the couch and rolled up my pant leg, to revel a red name engraved in my skin in neat handwriting; Hiroma
Hiei P.O.V.
The trees sway slightly in the breeze as I watch over the forest from the top of the tallest tree I could find, despite the smell (I swear Kurama will blackmail me one day with that piece of information), near Yaru's home. She wasn't at home-her home, I should say, and so I was waiting for her.
I suppressed my chi, so I could surprise Yaru when she came, and waited for a while. I began to doze off, when I felt an aura coming this way...Yusuke? I jumped down, and went to the path that that accursed fox and I had walked on about a month ago. He ran toward me, and I tripped him as he went by. He fell, and got back in his feet in a hurry. He almost tried to punch me, but I glared at him. He recognized me, and asked, "Hiei? Is that you? Kurama was right in saying that you would be here!!" I snorted and thought, "I am going to KILL YOU, KURAMA!" I asked him what he was doing, and he said that Koenma had sent him here to get me and to go to Yaru's home. I said in a bored tone, "Yaru's not here." Yusuke nodded and said, "We know! Someone kidnapped her-"
"WHAT!!!!" (A.N. Uh-oh, Hiei's angry)
I sped down the hallway in Koenma's building, my feet barely touching the ground. I slammed into Koenma's doors so fast, that they splintered into tiny bits of wood. I glared at the shocked group gathered in there; Kurama, Koenma, Botan, and Kuwabara (A.N. He must be really mad, because he's not calling Kuwabara Kuwabaka or something!). I shouted, "WHERE IS SHE!!!!!!!!!!!" Koenma wrapped himself into a tiny ball and didn't reply, and all the others backed away. I walked toward the baby, and grabbed him by the back of his shirt.
After some more shaking and shocked gasps from Botan, Koenma uncurled, and screamed, "Please don't kill me!" I shook him, and whispered in a menacing tone, "I will if you don't tell me where she is. So TELL ME!" Koenma winced and pointed with a shaking finger at a map on his desk. I dropped him on the carpet, where he stayed, curled and whimpering. I went to his desk and looked at a blue dot blinking on the map. It was labeled "Yaru." I turned around, and ran out of the room.
Kurama P.O.V.
We all sighed in relief as Hiei disappeared. He had been quite scary. We tried to help Koenma to get up, but he seemed traumatized. Kuwabara, who was quite clueless about what had happened, said, "What was that about? Why was Hiei worried about the girl so much?" I looked at Yusuke. He was writing on a notebook, and as we filed out of Koenma's (Almighty, and recently, Scarred-For-Life Prince of the Dead) office, I looked over his shoulder to see what he was writing. I sweatdropped as I saw the words "WAYS TO BLACKMAIL HIEI" scribbled in red. As I looked at the red writing, I suddenly could not look away, and the red writing changed:
Don't forget Youko! - Hiroma
Then, Yusuke whisked away with his notebook, and I found myself looking at the retreating backs of the others.
*&^%#@~~@#$%^&*()__(*&@#@#@^%^&&*(**())_()*(^&%#@@$%^&&&**(@$^$#&#$%$#^
No, that's not cursing. It's just a line that I, the authoress Takeide, put there to separate my notes from the story. Tat chapter was long for me. And I rushed....I am not that good at writing, am I...By the way, Kurama is not going insane. ^_^
