Chapter 2- "Sayori and Akemi"
With the girls
"Ouch!"
"Sorry, I can't get it."
"Keep trying," Sayuri encouraged her sister while she struggled to pick the lock on her restraints. The two sisters were back to back, each of them with their hands restrained behind their backs. Akemi struggled to pick Sayori's restraints (A/N: The locks on them.) with a bobby pin but so far she wasn't having any luck. She kept trying.
With Hiei and Kurama
Breaking into the building was no problem, even though it was guarded by demons.
"You know, Hiei, that wasn't a very long or hard battle at all, but I think we attracted some attention none the less," Kurama stated.
"Which is exactly why we should end this mission as soon as possible," Hiei responded, both of them absentmindedly picking up their pace while wandering through the halls.
"Stop," Kurama said suddenly, stopping and waiting for Hiei to walk back to him.
"What is it?" Hiei asked, Kurama sensed some impatience in his voice. Kurama put a finger to his lips and pointed towards a door. He put his head closer to the door, listening, as did Hiei.
"Do you hear it?" Kurama asked, which was a stupid question of course. This time it was Hiei's turn to put a finger to his own lips. They could hear two quiet voices. So similar that they almost seemed like one. They were listening so attentively that they almost didn't hear the demons that were creeping up behind them. Simultaneously, Hiei and Kurama swiftly turned around ready to fight, Hiei with his katana drawn. Hiei sighed, "Let's get this over with."
With Sayuri and Akemi
"Do you hear that?" Akemi asked as she stopped trying to pick her sisters restraints.
"Yeah," Sayuri answered, "What is it?"
"Shhh! Listen!" They both stopped talking and listened. They heard two voices, along with occasional and multiple screams of torment and pain. (A/N: The demons, not Hiei and Kurama) They kept listening. They heard mainly dieing scream of what the girls hoped were their enemies. Then a voice, "Rose whip!" The girls heard a loud crack, then another voice, "Nice one, Kurama." The first voice again, "Nice one yourself, Hiei, I hope he doesn't want his head back too badly." Sayuri gasped, a disgusted look on her face. She hated blood, and the thought of someone with their head cut off didn't really excite her. Speaking of excitement, the noise abruptly stopped, then...the door to the small room burst open and two boys, what looked like normal teenage boys, came walking calmly through the doorway. Sayori's eyes lit up at the sight of Kurama, but defused at the sight of Hiei and his katana.
"Now, Hiei, was that really necessary?" Kurama asked.
"The door was locked," Hiei answered. They kept walking towards Sayuri and Akemi. The two girls stood up, Sayuri's hands now unbound. "Who the hell are you?" As soon as Kurama got close enough, Sayori swung a punch at the side of his face, but Kurama caught her hand before it could make an impact. He smiled, "Shuichi Minamino, but Kurama suits much better." He gently let her hand go. Sayori didn't say anything, just walked behind Akemi and stayed there. Akemi remained silent, not showing any sign of fear or panic. (" " = talking, Italic = thinking, = Telekinetic talking) Why isn't she scared, or even suspicious? Kurama thought to himself.
Kurama, not everyone gets scared like Kuwabara Hiei said to Kurama.
The other girl does
Pathetic human...
"You can calm down, we're not here to harm you," Kurama said out loud.
"Yeah, right," Sayuri said quietly as Hiei walked up beside them and pushed Sayori away from Akemi. Akemi didn't move, didn't even turn around. Sayuri, however, ran up to Hiei and started to shake by his shoulder (from behind) to get him away from Akemi. "What the hell do you think you are doing? Get away from my sister!" Sayori shouted.
"Take your hands off me unless you me to cut them off." She did. Hiei raised his katana. Akemi squeezed her eyes shut as Sayori's widened.... Akemi's bonds were cut off in a split second. Her eyes snapped open. She rubbed her wrists, which were red from being held tightly by the restraints for two days. While she did so, Hiei walked back towards Kurama, and Sayori walked back behind Akemi. Kurama and Hiei watched them a moment to see if they were going to do anything. Sayori whispered something into Akemi's ear. Then Akemi quietly asked, "Could you please put your sword away?" Hiei looked at Kurama, who nodded. Hiei "hned" then sheathed his katana. "Better?" Akemi asked her sister over her shoulder. She just nodded, now staring at Kurama again. Who was, at the moment, looking out the door.
"We have to go now before more demons get in our way," Hiei said as he walked hurriedly towards the door. The two girls knew about the demons, and knew that they didn't want to run into any anytime soon.
"How do we know that we can trust you?" Sayori asked nervously, clutching her sister's arm very tightly.
"Who cares, let's go!" Hiei said as he came to the door and looked out.
"Can you see any, Hiei?" Kurama asked, as he did so, Hiei, whose back was still to Sayori and Akemi, untied his bandana. The girls just stared at the back of his head. After a few seconds, he re-tied his bandana. "About ten coming from this way, and five form that way," he announced, pointing in the appropriate directions, "We have seven minutes before the portal opens," He turned to the girls, "Are you coming or are you going to stay here?" Sayori's grip only became tighter.
"Sayori, they cut my bonds, the least we can do is pretend to trust them for a while, right?" Akemi asked quietly. Sayori didn't answer as Akemi began to walk forward.
"That's what I thought, now let's go!" Hiei said, "lightly" pushing the girls ahead so they were behind Kurama and ahead of Hiei, who unsheathed his katana again.
"Don't worry, you'll get used to him soon enough," Kurama said over his shoulder.
"Hn." They picked up their pace and kept walking, Kurama leading the way. Until he lost his sense of direction.
"Uh, which way is it, Hiei?" He asked, not looking back.
"Fox!" Kurama turned around as he heard Hiei respond, to see Hiei easily manage to decapitate three of the fifteen on coming demons. Kurama ran towards the brawl.
"Rose whip!" He yelled as three more demons lost their heads. As the two prepared to continue their attacks, two large flying discs shot through the air, heading straight for Akemi and Sayori. Sayori, who was hiding behind Akemi, screamed as Hiei sliced one of the discs in half with his katana while Kurama did the same thing with his rose whip. Both of them sending the remains of the discs flying in random directions. They struck the ceiling. As they did so, Kurama and Hiei ignored the remaining demons and ran towards the girls, grabbing their arms as they passed by; Kurama taking hold of Akemi's, and Hiei grasping Sayori's, though a little more rougher and careless than Kurama.
"Don't let them get away!" They all heard one of the remaining demons shout as they kept running. Akemi couldn't figure out why they were running away. There weren't many demons left, and by the looks of it, Hiei and Kurama could have killed them easily. But her question was answered when the ceiling started to crumble.
"Those discs must have ruptured the stability of the building. In about thirty seconds the whole thing is going to cave in," Kurama announced as large pieces of the ceiling began to fall. Akemi was surprised at how easily Hiei and Kurama avoided them.
"We don't need a status report, we need to get out of here," Hiei stated, picking up his pace, as did Kurama. Akemi and Sayuri were still being dragged along. Akemi thought they were going to fast, and she started to lose her footing. As she did so, she saw then turn a corner and head straight for a wall. Akemi heard Sayori scream as she almost did herself. Akemi's eyes snapped shut as she waited for the collision, but it never came. Instead, it all stopped. She opened her eyes and found them all outside.
"Where are--" Akemi stopped as another discs came flying past her, just missing her head.
"Let's go!" Hiei said as they started running again, Kurama still holding on the Akemi's wrist, and Hiei taking Sayori's arm.
"Not again!" Akemi could hear her sister complain as they gradually slowed down.
"Where is it, Hiei?" Kurama asked. Hiei paused for a moment.
"There!" Hiei pointed to the portal, Kurama saw it, "We're far enough ahead, we can stop." They did, just as they approached the portal.
"Go!" Hiei ordered, pointing in the portal.
"Why?" Sayori protested. Hiei didn't say anything as he walked behind her and pushed her in, Sayori dragging Akemi along with her. Kurama went next, then Hiei.
The girls became confused as to where they were as they stepped into Koenma's office.
"You took a little longer than expected boys. I bet you girls would like to know why you're here?" The girls quickly turned around as they heard the voice. They turned around, but didn't anything.
"Ouch!"
"Sorry, I can't get it."
"Keep trying," Sayuri encouraged her sister while she struggled to pick the lock on her restraints. The two sisters were back to back, each of them with their hands restrained behind their backs.
