Back to Ningenkai
Kurama's POV:
It wasn't too long before Hiei and I reached ningenkai. He was humming, and making me feel even more uncomfortable than I already was. I wished he would be back to his old emotionless self. Sure, I hoped he would learn to show a little emotion, but not because of this, not this way.
When we got to my house, I realized a problem- how would I explain this to my mom? I hadn't though of this. I turned to Hiei. "Hiei, wait here just a moment. I'll be right back out." Hiei nodded and I went inside.
As soon as I walked in, I heard a voice call, "Shuichi, is that you?"
(A/N: Help- I really can't spell his name- I know there's at least three spellings- is that one even close to right? And I can't spell mother in Japanese right either. Does anyone know the spellings?)
I walked into the kitchen to see her there. "Hai, Okassan." My mother came over and I hugged her, and she kissed my forehead. I smiled. If not for my mother, I never would have understood how to love, or even what love was. I had been a horrible child, but after a selfless act put herself into to protect me, I had only wanted to be a perfect- or close to perfect- son. I knew I would have to tell her the truth someday, and even if she rejected me, I would always love her.
"How are you, Shuichi?"
"Fine, Okassan, but I have a problem," I said, quickly trying to think up something to tell my mother.
"What is it?"
"A friend of mine- his parents left for a short while, and he got into an accident."
She looked shocked. "Oh, how horrible. Is he alright?"
"Yes, but he lost his memory, and thinks he's much younger. I don't want to leave him all alone, and I was wondering if he could stay here until his parents come home."
My mother nodded. "Of course he can stay here. That's a very good idea. You're such a thoughtful boy," she told me, smiling proudly. I blushed a little, and as I walked back outside, I knew she wouldn't have felt that way if she knew half of what I had done as Yoko.
I walked back to where I had left Hiei. Only now, there was no Hiei there.
Crap.
I looked around frantically. I told him to stay right there! Where had Hiei gone?
I quickly ran down the street and around the corner to find Hiei kicking stones...
...in the middle of an intersection.
My heart nearly stopped as I walked cars trying to swerve around him, while he continued to kick stones in the middle of the street, paying them no notice. I ran out just as a car started to come up fast, not caring at all that he was there. Immediately, with all the strength I had, I ran out as grabbed him, pulling him away just in time. The driver honked, but didn't even slow down. Another car stopped in front of us and I dragged Hiei back to the sidewalk while trying to apologize to the driver at the same time. I was annoyed. What did he think he was doing? "What were you doing? You could've gotten hurt! I told you to stay put!" I yelled at him, angry, but at the same time, glad he was still in one piece.
Hiei looked up at me, and started to make a sound that sounded like a whimper. My eyes widened. I didn't want him to start crying. That would be just too weird. I sighed, and tried to use a calmer tone. "Don't cry. I didn't mean to yell. I was just worried. At least you're ok."
He nodded, calming down. Then he jumped up and threw his arms around my neck, pulling me down.
Whoa. This was a little too much. Hiei would never do anything like this. I was even more uncomfortable. It just wasn't him. The face and body was his, but he acted so...different. I missed the old Hiei, and wondered if he'd ever be back to normal.
He sighed. "I'm sorry, Kurama."
I hugged him back, feeling strange while doing it. "It's alright. Let's just go back to the house now."
We walked back to the house, and Hiei asked, "Is this our home, Kurama?"
I nodded, and then realized he couldn't call me that. "Listen Hiei- Kurama's a secret name. One that our mother doesn't know. When we're inside, you can't call me Kurama anymore. You have to call me Shuichi, understand?"
Hiei nodded, looking happy- he must've thought it was a fun secret. "Ok, Ku- I mean, Shuichi."
I nodded, and we walked inside. My mother came up to greet us. "Is this him, Shuichi?" she asked.
Hiei walked right up to her. "Are you my mother?" he asked her.
My mother looked at me, confused. I nodded as though to tell her to just play along. She understood. "Yes, I'm your mother. How are you?"
"I almost got hurt, but Shuichi helped me. He's a nice brother."
I sighed in relief. This might actually work. But I had no idea that this was going to be the least of my worries soon.
Scribble: Well, this was a short chapter.
Me: Yeah, they'll be a little short, by the power of pure laziness. Well, I hope you liked this, and please don't flame me, if you wish to review. The next chapter will be out soon. Long Live the Demons!
