Author's Notes:
"Out of Nowhere: Chapter Three" by Baka Gothic Kitsune
Kurama and Hiei crept stealthily down a long corridor, Hiei leading the way.
Unfortunately, the two were paying too much attention to what was ahead of them to even notice the band of guards that was following closely behind, until, that is, one of the guards shot an arrow at them, narrowly missing Hiei's skull. Another arrow flew by, nearly giving Kurama an ear- piercing.
"Well, isn't this lovely?" Kurama asked sarcastically. "No weapons other than our bare hands; Perfect." He smiled wickedly.
Within seconds, they found themselves surrounded by various youkai guards. Hiei attacked the first demon that cam within his reach, slamming his fist into its' face. As the demon fell to the ground, Hiei fiercely picked up the demon's katana and began randomly slicing guards to ribbons.
One demon carrying a whip ran at Kurama, lashing out at him. Kurama narrowed his eyes and smiled in a crazed and bloodthirsty manner. As the whip came in Kurama's direction, he grabbed the end and, using all his strength, he pulled the whip, pulling the youkai to him. "Thanks for the toy," he said. He smiled sadistically and thrust his sharply clawed hand through the demon's chest. Pulling the whip from the crumpled and bloody demon's hand, Kurama began slashing left and right, killing one demon after another.
Soon enough, Kurama and Hiei found themselves standing in the middle of an empty corridor, save for the knee deep layer of corpses. For some inexplicable reason, they were both remarkably clean of blood. The wall, however, was another matter; a grisly and blood spattered matter.
"That was fun," Kurama said cheerfully, licking blood from his fingertips. Hiei only rolled his eyes as he wiped the stolen sword clean on the clothes of a dead demon that lay at his feet.
"Let's go," Hiei said, calmly.
"Hmph. Fine," Kurama said with the faintest hint of a pout. Then, he added in a low mutter, "Rotten, grumpy little bastard. . ."
Unfortunately for Kurama, he'd said the forbidden word: "little".
"What was that?!" Hiei asked, glaring at Kurama.
"Oh, nothin'," Kurama said, innocently looking at the ceiling and putting his hands behind his back.
"Uh-huh, well if I'm little, then you're. . . you're . . ." Hiei stopped to think a moment.
"Take your time, take your time," Kurama said coolly. "Comebacks can be a little difficult to come up with."
"If I'm little, then you're a sugar-high jackass!" Hiei finally retorted. "The word of emphasis being 'high'!!"
Kurama blinked and busted up laughing. "You're pretty slick for bein' such a hotheaded little shrimp."
That did it. Hiei now had to resort to total lies. "Yeah, well, you're ugly!!"
Kurama, being the ridiculously vain creature that he was, thought to himself, 'What the hell is he talking about?! He knows damn well I'm gorgeous!' He raised an eyebrow and looked in Hiei's direction. "What is that supposed to mean? Are you blind man?!!" He Pushed Hiei roughly against the wall, bringing his face very close to Hiei's. He lowered his eyelids in what he knew was a seductive fashion.
Hiei fought to keep himself from blushing and to slow his heart beat. Somehow, he managed to keep his usual cold glare firmly in place and rolled his eyes. "I call 'em as I see 'em, bitch."
"Mm-hm," Kurama said carelessly, leaning closer to Hiei and speaking directly into his ear. "And exactly how much experience do you have in this particular area, Hiei?"
Hiei's mind was reeling as he tried not to outright moan. Gathering his strength, Hiei shoved Kurama away from him. "Enough," he said coldly.
"Hmm. . . It seems I've hit on a touchy subject, but I wonder what exactly it was? Was it the question about experience. . .or was it the comment about your being little. . .?"
"I said 'enough'," Hiei stated flatly, his heart rate finally returning to normal. "Are we going to get out of here or not?" They were at last nearing the exit of the building.
"What's wrong? Are you in a hurry to get home to your mommy or something?" Kurama asked jokingly.
Hiei froze in his tracks, and did an about face to look at Kurama. "You know that line people are always talking about? Well, you've just crossed it. . ."
Kurama's eyes widened. He hadn't really meant to offend Hiei, but it appeared that he'd unintentionally struck a truly vital chord in the smaller demon. So, naturally, he did what any self-respecting fox demon would do; he turned tail and hauled ass in the direction of the exit, which was now in sight.
Hiei was surprised by Kurama's cowardice as he turned tail and hauled ass. (A/N: Sorry, my friend RinRin-chan made me use that phrase twice. *sweatdrops*)
Kurama made a sharp right as he exited the building—
And ran right smack into a very familiar frame.
TO BE CONTINUED. . .
A/N: Yeah, well, I said I was gonna try and make the chapters longer, so me and a couple friends (RinRin-chan and Starlit-Night1) sat up 'til 4 somethin' in the morning writing that whole insult scene. I realize it's rather pointless and that both Kurama and Hiei are incredibly OOC, but I hope you enjoyed it none the less. You can tell that we were all sleep deprived and had had way too much sugar. I shall try not to revert to such horrible randomness again. HA!! I used a cliffhanger!! Cookies for whoever can guess who the "familiar frame" is!! Anywayz, R&R. Sayonara.
