"Hey, I think Minamino's cracked."
"Well. I knew SOMETHING had to be wrong with him."
Kurama wasn't listening to his classmates.
His eyes were locked on a battle taking place just outside the window of his classroom. A battle which moved so fast that to everyone else it looked like he was watching the tree branches move in the wind.
"Minamino, please return to your seat." The sensei was saying and touched his arm.
It was like a jolt.
He pulled away from the teacher and settled his eyes back on the fight.
Hiei had been suprised, but that didn't account for the way he was fighting.
Unfocused, almost...clumsy.
The demon he fought should not have landed even one blow and yet there was Hiei, bleeding.
"Hiei!" Kurama cried and ran from the room.
Behind him there was a deep and thorough silence. "Who's Hiei?" someone said.
"No idea." was the answer.
"It's always the bright ones that go nuts." The teacher sighed then returned to the board.
