Hiei looked about the forest briefly. He was familiar with this forest, seeing as he trained in it so often. Looking over to Ashira, he smiled. She was looking about the forest with wonder, seeing as she had found one of his favorite spots.
The golden and crimson flecked leaves littered the dark brown earth and the air was crisp and a bit cold. The cold didn't bother him, seeing as what he was, though he looked to Ashira to see if she was alright. She didn't seem to notice the change of the temperature, in all actuality it was colder in the hideout, probably what first gave him the indication it was warm outside.
A small trickle of water cascaded down the surface of a formation of boulders, sending a steady pleasant sound into the area. The trees surrounding the two children were in the shape of a circle, making this spot open and clear. The cloudy sky above was calm, making him feel at ease. He sighed in content, not feeling the need to make something scream out in pain for the moment.
He opened his crimson eyes to see Ashira very close to his face, her nose barely touching his. "W-what?" he stammered.
"What are you doing?" she asked, "Are you just gonna stand there?"
"No... I thought we were going to play..."
"Don't worry! What do you want to play?" she asked smiling brightly.
"I told you I don't know how to play."
"Oh.. that's right.... Well I'm gonna teach you!"
He smiled faintly at her efforts. She was the first that had actually asked what he wanted to do.. no one ever did that. He looked over at her and found himself smirking at her. She sat thoughtfully on the ground, amidst the colored leaves, pondering on what game they could play. He stood thinking to himself, when she suddenly jumped up and yelped happily, "I know! We can play hide-and-go-seek!! It's so fun!! It's real easy too!"
"Easy, aren't games supposed to be challenging?"
"Don't worry it will be! I'm a good hider!"
"So what exactly do you do?"
"You count to thirty and I go hide somewhere, while you count and close your eyes. Then you come find me!" "Doesn't sound very challenging...."
"Kay! I'm gonna go hide now!!! No peeking!" she cried back, as she ran off. He stood silently for a moment, trying to comprehend her nonchalant actions. She was so....different, but he found himself liking this difference in her. She was like no other person he had ever known. He hoped this wouldn't be their last meeting. He secretly wished for this deal to go over well with Ashori and his leader. If so, they would have to meet with each other every so often and Ashira would probably follow her father's footsteps.
He remembered the game and closed his eyes, counting silently to himself, though he knew had at least spent fifteen seconds standing there thinking. Opening his eyes, he looked about for her, 'Where could she have gone?' he thought.
Ashira watched Hiei through her mind, 'Wonder what he's waiting for...' she sighed and readjusted herself in the small space, between the crevice of the boulders. She remained silent but let out a small sigh. Phasing would be useful to control right about now. She knew she could phase, yet unfortunately, couldn't control it yet. It was like her voice; now it was beautiful, but until she hit the teenage years, she wouldn't be able to use her voice to charm others.
Hiei flitted about the area quickly looking for her. Was he allowed to try and sense her ki... probably not. That wouldn't be a challenge at all. He scanned the clearing for possible places to hide before settling on the boulders. He smirked to himself as he stopped a few yards away from them. Full on smiling, he kneeled down to smirk at her between the crevice. "Found you." He stated.
She gasped, surprised he found her and found herself phasing through the boulders and out of the other side. Smiling, she stood up and ran in the other direction, "You gotta catch me first!"
He smirked and hopped over the boulder. This was her first definite mistake. She didn't know about his speed...well, at least not yet. Running after her he decided he would start off normal and measure her own speeds. Grinning, she looked behind herself, almost sure she wouldn't see him yet. Oh how wrong she was....
Seeing her look of surprise, he sped up, a smirk gleaming on his face. She yelped and ran faster, trying to avoid the fire youkai. Hiei had a look of pure amusement sketched on his face as he raised his speed to be the same as hers. Of course he could go even faster, but for her, he assumed, it was pretty fast.
She could feel his presence directly behind herself, but did not dare look back. She was so surprised that he found her so quickly and then, even, caught up with her as quickly as he did. Snapping back to the reality of the present, she found herself about to go over a small slope. Stopping abruptly, she was able to stop herself from tripping over.. for the moment at least.
Hiei, not realizing why she had stopped and couldn't stop himself from running into her, hit her full on and toppled them both over the slope. After all, he had been following very closely and he hadn't had enough time to stop, even with his speed. As if by instinct, he pulled her into his arms and held her close to himself, protecting her from the fall.
They finally finished rolling downwards and opened their eyes. Hiei's red eyes met with her grey ones and he smiled. They had stopped right at the wall of the hideout. Sighing he looked her over, to see if she had been hurt during the fall. Smiling, she sighed, "Guess I'm It now, ne?"
He nodded and smiled at her. It was then he noticed how they had stopped. He was leaning over her, pinning her to the ground with his weight. He blushed, not knowing why this position was bad, but feeling uncomfortable being in it.
She smiled up at him, "Something wrong?" she asked. Shaking his head, he started moving to get off her. It was then, that two thieves came around the corner and stopped to stare.
The first, a blue-skinned youkai smirked, "Hiei? Getting it on with the rich guy's daughter?!" he called. The second nodded, "Don't you think you're a little young?" he said, snickering loudly. Hiei blushed then glared at the two. "Kamasaki! Ichito! Go away, before I kill you!!"
Kamasaki frowned slightly, "Hiei should you really be doing this without the leader's consent?"
Ichito nodded, "Yeah what about the rest of us?!"
Hiei blushed bright red, but his eyes burned with hatred and rage, "Cotosu......" he whispered getting up off Ashira. His hand unsheathed his katana before either could say anything more. Within moments, the two both had rather large gashes along their chests; not enough to kill quite yet, but to torture for a couple of days as they slowly bled, then they would die.
Hiei ignored their cries of pain and helped Ashira up. "Are you alright?" he asked looking over her yet again.
She nodded, "Uhn! So what were those two talking about?" she asked innocently.
Hiei found himself blushing again but quickly gained control of it, "I think... they didn't.... er... I mean, they meant...--" He sighed thankfully as he heard the whistle of the leader calling them in. "We should go in, your dad and the leader are probably done negotiating..."
"Oh. Um, Hiei can I ask a question?" she turned to look at him. "Sure.... What is it?"
"Are we friends?" she asked. He nodded, "Yeah," he paused. "Friends 'till the end."
