Chapter 9
Kurama P.O.V.
For about a week, Hiei showed no signs that he existed. Then, the noises in the woods began. Every morning, all of the people walking to school started hearing strange noises from the woods near the city. It always seemed bad for some reason. Perhaps it was the enormous booms, crashes, and screeches emitting from the forest. Or, it could be that for a while, the city was covered by squirrels and other forest animals with fear in their eyes, and shadowed by birds hauling butt. Or, was it that when the police went to investigate, only one returned (He was put in the hospital's sector for mental patients)?
While the rumors circulated, and the noises went on for many weeks, Yusuke, Kuwabara, and I listened, and told Koenma, who refused to look at the human world in fear that Hiei would find out, and kill him. When he heard, he exclaimed, "What the hell was Hiei doing?" Botan actually tried to locate Hiei on Koenma-sama's screen, but, for some reason, it always fazed out in a particular section of the forest. We had gone to investigate, but were stopped by a stampede of very scared wildlife. We got away before they could permanently injure us.
I sat looking over the city on the roof of a building. I turned toward the woods. No sounds right now... perhaps Hiei had fallen asleep. Then, a sudden crash cut through the idea, and I winced as the crash was followed by the shrieks of birds and wild animals as they stampeded the city.
Hiei P.O.V.
How could I have let here go? Why did I not try to help her? Damn it! I kneeled on the ground, panting for my breath, as the cut trees near me fell across the clearing. They then disappeared, and reappeared in their former, upright positions. It seems the trees around here were immortal, and also, fireproof. They would also restrain me if I got too temperamental (don't ask!). I stood up, and then fainted on the ground, fatigue running through my aching body.
I woke up the next morning. It was sunny, yet no birds were chirping, and no animals were making disgusting, primitive noises. I got up and stretched, wincing at new bruises and cuts. Did I really cut that many trees last night? And, what was I thinking? I looked around the clearing. Holes in the ground, trees looking like they had been cut a million times, tree sap gooing out of trees and sinking into the ground...
I walked over the to lake, which was half filled with leaves and stuff. Not caring about sanity, I dunked my head into the water. It was very cold, and I woke up. Then, after I walked straight into the lake to 'clean off', I walked toward the only uncut tree; Yaru's tree. I sat down at her grave, and thought about her. It was about 2 months since she had died. I thought about her attitude, her smirks, the way she laughed when I fell into the lake. I then started to get angry that I hadn't saved her, and just before I went crazy, I thought, "Oh. That's why I destroyed the area." Then, the insanity began again.
I stopped a little later, to catch my breath. I listened to the cacophony outside, and looked at the grave. My eyes started to get watery, and a few seconds later, lots of tear gems fell to the dirt, and rolled around, until they got stuck in sap. I then, got even more insane, and my head seemed to pound. A voice kept saying it's your fault... it's your fault...it's your fault...it's your fault... it's your fault...
I started to swing my sword, not caring what I hit, not feeling the pain of falling trees, branches, and everything else. I just was about to kill another tree when my swipe was blocked by another sword, and I glared at the person holding it. My eyes then met blue eyes...

Man, if you can't guess who that is, then you are definitely sad...
REVIEW! REVIEW! REVIEW! (Three times!)

So, any ways, in the next short chapter:
If you're truly so stupid, then you'll find out who it is with blue eyes. It you actually have a brain, then you'll find the next chapter way too short...
You can get the next chapter before anyone else! First to guess which couples these are get chapter 10 before everyone else...of course, you'll have to review it when it does come out for everyone... If you've got a guess to either, then tell me! No next chapter until someone gets it one of the couples right!!!
