'Ack!' Miyeko cries as Kuwabara prods her wound none too gently. 'Watch it!'
'Sorry, love,' Kuwabara says, gentling his ministrations. He stands back up, 'It isn't too bad.'
Miyeko stands cautiously, wincing a little, 'Yeah, but it hurts like a bitch.' She looks around, 'Where's the fire brat?'
Kuwabara looks around as well, cursing himself for not remembering his presence before his love was harmed. I've always wanted to kill the little bastard, but now it's personal.
'Well, that goes both ways,' Hiei says, seeming to materialize from the shadows. He wore his trademark scowl. He turns his gaze briefly towards the female demon, 'And you- you will die for touching Yukina.'
Kuwabara moved to stand in front of Miyeko, producing his ki sword. 'Don't you touch her!'
Hiei simply looked uninterestedly at him, 'Che' baka.'
'ARRGH!!' Kuwabara said and charged Hiei. 'DIE!!!'
'Big mistake, ningen!!' Hiei said, quickly blurring out of the way. He took advantage of Kuwabara's recovery time and sent him flying into the wall with a fireball. The ningen hit the wall hard enough to crack it. A piece of the wall fell atop him, effectively pinning his unconscious form.
'Now that he's taken care of...' Hiei turned his attention to the smiling Miyeko. 'You may drop the disguise.' At Miyeko's shocked look he continued, 'Your mask is pitifully simple to detect. I'm surprised that the idiot didn't sense it.'
'Ha,' Miyeko laughed, 'I suppose I did underestimate you, Hiei.' She raised a hand to her face and pulled away the mask of her beautiful face. A white cloud surrounded her, then drifted away to reveal Miyeko's true form.
Her body was scaled with the exception of her stomach, face, and palms. Long claws tipped her fingers. Her clothes had been reduced to a barely decent, gauzy robe and a pair of slippers. She tilted her head, spilling her long blue-black hair over her silver scaled shoulders. 'I am Miyeko. What do you think? I live up to my name, ne?'
Hiei narrowed his eyes, 'All I see is an ugly whore.'
Miyeko scowled, then smiled, 'I see, you just don't want to admit you see my beauty.' She moved into an offensive stance, baring her scaled thighs. 'Don't worry. You'll get the chance to admit it once you are mine.'
'Hn,' Hiei said, taking a similar stance with a hand on his katana, 'We'll see.'
-Inside-
Kurama sucked a breath in through clenched teeth as Yukina quickly healed his wounds.
Yukina winced along with him, 'Gomen nasai, Kurama-kun.' She withdrew her hands as the last of the wounds healed.
'It's all right, Yukina,' he said, relaxing. He shifted his gaze to his friend, 'How's Yusuke?'
'Resting,' she turned back to the detective. 'I healed his wound, but he lost a lot of youki sustaining his life beforehand.' She smoothed a sheet over him, 'He'll be all right after a nap.' She turned towards the fox with a smile, 'You should rest as well.'
He smiled back, 'I'll be fine.' He looked around, suddenly realizing his best friend's absence, 'Where's Hiei?!'
Yukina frowned, 'Back in the courtyard.' She looked down, 'He told me to stay in my room.'
'That's Hiei for you...' the fox frowned, 'Taking everything on his shoulders...'
'I know...' Yukina looked up, 'But I believe in his strength. He will win.'
'I know, but it won't hurt to help him...' Kurama said as he attempted to stand. He winced as his leg collapsed under his weight.
'Kurama-kun,' Yukina gently scolded, 'I told you to rest.' She pushed him back onto a futon and pulled a sheet over him. 'But you are right- I will go and see if Hiei-san needs help.'
'Yukina...' Kurama said, sitting up.
She tilted her head, 'Yes?'
He leaned forward and kissed her gently, 'Be careful.'
Yukina felt a blush color her face, 'O-of course.'
Kurama smiled and leaned back, 'I'll be here if you need me.' He closed his eyes and promptly fell asleep.
Yukina sat there for a few seconds, her hand resting on her mouth. Then she smiled. Kurama...Suddenly she remembered what she was going to do. I must go help Hiei-san!!
With that, she ran off into the hallway towards the courtyard.
