Ok, I have decided not to take down the other story since I found that someone has it on their favorites. So, I'll just leave it up there but it is now discontinued. Anyway, on the last chapter, Mayline told Hiei a little bit about herself. Her story and Lina's will unravel soon. Oh and there will be kinda an OOC with Hiei. Sorry. Ok, on to the chapter.

Chapter 7

Mayline stood in a fighting stance ready to fight. "Ok, Hiei, what the hell is up with you?"

Hiei just grinned. "Nothing."

"Uh huh. Yeah right. What the hell is up with your eyes? I don't like that one bit," Mayline said. Hiei blinked and his eyes became normal. Mayline relaxed a bit seeing that his eyes weren't white anymore. "Hiei?" Hiei looked around confused and then suddenly growled again causing Mayline to jump back into her fighting stance. Hiei then stormed off. Mayline sighed and stood up. "That was freaky." She then sat back down under the tree and looked around. She didn't feel like sleeping anymore after that last attack. She soon zoned out, deep in thought. 'What the hell was up with that man? That was too weird. I doubt he knew what the hell was going on.' Her thoughts were soon interrupted as Kurama sped by. She didn't have to wait long to see why. Hiei was chasing him.

"Kurama, get back here!!" Hiei yelled as he continued to chase him. Mayline blinked at them.

"A LITTLE ASSISTANCE PLEASE, MAYLINE!!!" Kurama yelled.

"Why is he chasing you?" Mayline asked as they both sped by again.

"He snapped one of by best swords with that stupid whip of his!!" Hiei yelled.

"I'm sorry, Hiei! I'll buy you a new one!" Kurama yelled as he continued to run.

"You'd better!!" Hiei yelled as he skidded to a stop and glared at Kurama.

Mayline laughed. "You two are amusing." She then looked up in the tree when she heard someone yawn.

Lina swung down and hung from the tree branch by her legs. "You know. Some people are trying to sleep."

Mayline sighed and shook her head. She continued to watch as Kurama shook his head and walked off. "We have to do something about those insignias and fast. A few minutes ago, Hiei was about ready to attack me."

"That's not good," Lina said.

"No kidding. Anything from Koenma?" Mayline asked as she looked up at her friend.

"Nope," Lina replied.

"Damn that stupid toddler. He's useless." Mayline sighed and watched as Hiei walked over and snorted. "Not too happy I take it."

"No," Hiei said as he pouted. "That was my favorite sword." Lina laughed.

Mayline bit her lip to keep from laughing. "Oh my god."

"It even had the grooves form my fingers worn into the hilt," Hiei said before sniffling. Mayline shook her head with her hand over her mouth and red from trying not to laugh. Lina continued to laugh. "And the blade was the perfect sharpness." He stuck out his bottom lip and it started to tremble. Mayline gave up trying not to laugh and just burst out into howls of laughter. Lina fell from the tree holding her stomach and laughing her ass off.

After a while, Mayline and Lina sat up still laughing a bit. "That was too good," Mayline said. Lina nodded as she whipped some of her tears away.

"Thank you ladies. The other think I'm uptight," Hiei said with a slight bow.

"I don't think so," Mayline said as she stood up and stretched.

"Me neither," Lina agreed. Hiei grinned evilly at her. "What did I do!?"

"I have an idea for my friend Kurama," Hiei said with a smirk.

Mayline looked interested. "I don't wanna know," Lina said.

"Why not Lina? It sounds fun," Mayline said.

"Cause it involves me."

Oh come on. Please Lina."

"No, Mayline," Lina said as she stood up and walked off.

"Lina. Oh, you brat," Mayline called after her.

"She was right you know." Mayline turned to Hiei. "It involved her," Hiei said.

"Oh, darn," Mayline said as she snapped her fingers.

Hiei looked at Mayline and smirked. "Wanna help?"

Mayline blinked a bit before a grin spread across her face. "Sure. Just let me get some sleep, and I pray to whoever can hear me that you wont attack me."

"I'll try not to."

Two days later, Mayline was waiting for Hiei in spirit world. She didn't have to wait long when she saw Hiei dragging an unconscious Kurama over. Mayline laughed. Hiei dragged him over and dropped him on the ground. "Hello."

Mayline laughed even more. "Ok, wait here," she said before disappearing. She reappeared inside her apartment and looked around for Lina. "Lina?"

"What?"

Mayline walked into the kitchen to see Lina sitting on the counter and Karen looking through the refrigerator. She walked over to Lina. "Sorry, Lina," she said before hitting a spot on the back of Lina's neck causeing her to pass out.

Karen suddenly looked up. "What did you do!?"

She didn't get an answer as Mayline picked Lina up and disappeared again only to reappear in front of Hiei. "Ok, so what's the plan?"

Hiei picked Kurama back up and walked off. "This way." Mayline followed quickly. Hiei led her to a cage surrounded by living vines that had strange buds on them and moved around like snakes ready to strike. Hiei went over and threw Kurama into the open cage.

Mayline did the same with Lina and rolled her shoulder. "Lina may be my friend but she isn't light."

"Same with Kurama," Hiei said as he shut the door to the cage and began to set up the locks.

Mayline rolled her shoulder a bit more and blinked as she took a closer look at Hiei. He was shivering slightly and his skin was slightly pale. "Are you alright? You look pale."

"Just a little cold. That's all," Hiei replied. He sighed as he saw Mayline narrow her eyes at him. "Look, I'm fine."

"Lina said my instincs were good and right now they're telling me that you're not as fine as you say you are," Mayline said.

"I'm fine," Hiei insisted.

"I don't buy it," Mayline said before walking off leaving Hiei to finish locking Lina and Kurama in the cage.

Is Hiei really as fine as he says he is? Or is there something else that he's not saying? Find out in the next chapter of Don't Know Yet.
