-Chapter 23-
Chi Chi stood in the shadows of the room… was this true… about her daughter being a demon… were these words she was reading from her heart? A young raven haired woman had handed several of Ross' journal entries before hastily leaving while pulling a spiky haired guy behind her.
Gohan felt his thoughts choke as he read Ross' words… how could he have been so blind to her true feelings about all of them… they were merely puppets in her game.
Kurama, Yusuke and Kuwa walked into the silent room to see Ross' relatives reading what looked like packets of copied entries of something or another…
"Can I get any of you anything?" Kurama asked, Chi Chi's face shot up.
"You can get my daughter for starters" she said fiercely, Kurama just kept his calm presence.
"I'm sorry I don't know where she is right now…" Kurama said lowly… but then heard a piercing scream from the kitchen.

Ross' walked through the kitchen door… eyes blank, she heard someone scream… knowing it was her mother she just kept walking… nothing mattered anymore.
Ross' opened the door weakly, only to see a few blurred figures in front of her, red tear streaks ran down her cheeks as she heard mumbling throughout the room and then a sudden smack across the face sent her tumbling.
Chi Chi's hand stung from the blow she had given her daughter, she was furious from the words she had read earlier, her daughter flew backwards from the force of the blow and landed in the wooden wall behind her, smacking her head in the process.
A groan emitted from Ross' form as she looked up only to see a more clear view of who had hit her.
"HOW DARE YOU WRITE THESE WORDS!" Chi Chi screamed, Ross just looked down and let the tears roll down her face.
"You're right… I shouldn't have" dead silence filled the room from her response, Chi Chi's brow ruffled as she stared at her daughter.
Ross felt her stomach lunge once again; she grabbed something sturdy and stood up.
"Are you DRUNK!?!" Chi Chi screamed, Ross didn't answer but back fisted the wall behind her, sending a bottle tumbling from the rafters and falling into her possession… another whiskey bottle to drain her pain.
"No… but I will be… if you'll excuse me" Ross mumbled but as soon as she began to step forward she heard weeping from the kitchen.
"She's going to turn into a drunk just like her father, Jiro do something!" Rosa's mom sobbed loudly from the kitchen, Ross groaned from her plea…
"Damnit mother" she mumbled under her breath but her words where caught by a sudden shock of pain sending her crawling to the floor.
"SOMEONE KILL ME PLEASE!" she sobbed as she held her gut and moaned in pain, Kurama stared at his fallen sibling…. her ningen family couldn't do anything but stare, they had just found out the whole truth in the last few hours… and didn't know how to react. He on the other hand… should know what to do… but he was lost as well.
Ross sobbed into the wall, Chi Chi's expression softened… how could she watch her daughter in so much pain.
"Rossalynn… are you ok?" she asked dumbly only receiving stifled whimpers from her daughter.
"So you care now… now that I'm dying mother?" Ross screamed a hidden anger arising… no… she shouldn't take it out on her mother… she had nothing to do with this, she was the one that pushed Hiei away.
"Ross… you need to lie down… maybe I can find something that can-" Ross lifted her hand to Kurama's response.
"No… I don't want help… I just want to die… right here… just… leave…" her voice was staggering, Kurama was enraged, Hiei had something to do with this, he shouldn't have left, and this WAS his best friend after all.
"Are you sure you're ok?" He asked already knowing the answer.
"Just go… go to bed ALL OF YOU… we'll discuss this… later" she mumbled as she clutched something that was wrapped around her… Hiei's cloak, tears came to her eyes as she remembered why she decided to move from the greenhouse… he had drowned all her dreams with on action… hatred, she could stand being there knowing he had left her on crumbled the floor
"I'm not leaving you like this" Gohan said determined to make his sister better with his words.
"There's nothing to see here but my pain… and I'd rather you not see that… read my words if you must… Firea seems to have taken care of spilling my guts for you… so just leave me now; I'm nothing more than the past for you… I'll be better in the morning" Ross groaned as Goahn stepped back.
She wasn't making any sense to him, he stepped back and only nodded to her crippled response… the others could only stare at her as they walked out of the room slowly with Gohan who had grabbed his mother prying her from the scene.
Ross moaned in pain, her kittens snuggled themselves into her arms, Ross could only comfort them… they were feeling her pain after all.
"So this is… what a broken heart feels like" she thought as her eyes filled up with tears, she took a swig of the copper drink she had in her possession.
Kurama heard what she had said… it was time to talk with a certain fire kroomie, no one hurt hi sister… especially like this.

Hiei took another shot, Firea had dragged him to a club, and his only goal was to get drunk enough to get his onna off his mind.
' I shouldn't have left her… she's in too much pain… but DAMNIT if only she knew what was going on, I have to tell her when I get back' Hiei looked up to see who had taken his drink from him, Firea smiled widely at him.
"Dance with me!" Firea giggled as she dragged him staggering to the dance floor.

Ross had crawled onto the couch and was beginning to feel the pull of sleep, her kittens by her chest purring lightly while also giving her the heat desired… even if it wasn't from WHO she wanted it from.
She heard the music from her step brother's band, performing downstairs… oh how she wished she could sing again with them, just as she had so many years ago.
Kurama walked into the room , to see Ross' wrapped in a quilt upon the couch, he felt guilty for going against his better judgment as to leave her alone… he knew she was still awake.
"Who's there?" she asked, obviously too weak to sense who it was.
"It's me Ross" Kurama said kindly as he walked over to the couch and sat a cup of tea by her.
"Oh…" is all she could manage to get out before she dug her face into the covers once again.
"I brought you some tea, you should drink it, it might make you feel better" the red head requested, only receiving a groan from his sister, and then a moment of perpetuated silence.
"Kurama… why does a broken heart hurt so bad…" Ross asked as she let the tears fall, Kurama didn't know how to answer… he had never had one himself, always being the one to break it off.
"The pain will go away" he said softly.
'While I give Hiei some pain of his own' Kurama thought inwardly, Ross just sobbed.
"No… not this time" she squeaked out barely able to keep in her sorrow, Kurama rubbed her back lovingly as she shuddered from her unheard cries, they soon decreased and then stopped all together, signaling she was asleep.
Kurama stood up and took the cup from the table, walking out back to the kitchen to leave his sister in peace.

Hiei jerked upwards once he felt it… Ross' energy was completely gone; he looked quickly to Firea and rushed out of the club much to her disagreement.

Kurama walked back into the room only to find it empty.
'Where did she go?' Kurama asked himself, the door slammed open as Hiei emerged.
"Where is she!?!" Hiei asked, only receiving a glare from the fox demon.
"Why do you care...? I don't know where she is, she dissap-" but before he finished his sentence he noticed a note taped to Ross' pillow.
Hiei looked to see where Kurama was looking and saw the note, grabbing it before the fox could and tearing it open, Firea finally caught up, once she saw the note she smirked inwardly.
' I thin I'll have fun with this one… a wounded princess for my enjoyment'
Hiei growled once he finished reading the words printed on the paper in front of him.
"What does it say?" Kurama asked as the lights in the house went on and several bodies emerged into the room.
"She's been kidnapped…" Hiei moved his eyes to Firea and glared evilly.
"Where is she wench" Hiei asked angrily, only getting a chuckle from the fire skank.
"Well I noticed she was in pain and well getting in MY way as well… so I thought I would just speed up the process" Hiei had a handful of her hair in his grip once she had finished her statement.
"WHERE IS SHE!" he yelled his eyes brightening with anger, but then he dropped her.
"What am I saying I can just find her with my Jagan" he thought out loud as he untied his bandana and opened his eye, searching for Ross' life force.
"You have three eyes?" Tien asked, Hiei only growled but then got a fixed position on the fire kit, and left through the window.

'where am I?' Ross thought as she felt someone hauling her through the forest, she was too weak to move…
' Wha-… someone's kidnapped me?' She asked herself as she was dropped on the floor harshly and then kicked painfully in the side.
"Well lookie what I found, I wounded princess…" a male's voice said as a smirk played upon their putrid features.
"Who are you?" Ross asked, but felt a large weight land on her pinning her to the ground.
"You'll know me soon enough" a voice licked through her thoughts as they began to kiss her harshly.
' WHAT'S GOING ON?!?" Ross' mangled thoughts screamed as the man began to force himself on her… Ross' felt her insides squirm as she forced her head away from his, lifeless tears falling from her eyes.
'Why… why do I deserve this?' She felt the cold ground underneath her… was this how it was going to end… her being heat broken, torn, and raped?

Hiei rushed through the damp forest, rain drops sprinkled through out the greenery and he could hear the others screaming behind him as they fought to catch up.
'Where is she? Where's my onna!?! She probably hates me but I don't care DAMNIT I shouldn't have left… I should have stayed with her, I should have protected her' Hiei's thoughts were jammed when he heard a shriek not 100 yards ahead.
He reached for his katana but was suddenly thrown back by some sort of force field, the fire demon rubbed his head and stood up, peering through what seemed to be a pink bubble, he saw something that made his blood run cold.
A hand grabbed Hiei's shoulder; he whirled around shoving his katana, only to see it was the fox, breathing heavily.
"GET AWAY FROM ME FOX!" Hiei screamed as he yanked his shoulder from Kurama's touch and attacked the force field once more.
Kurama peered in, only to see that his sister was beaten on the floor, with what looked like a large green demon holding her down.

Ross screamed once more, her energy was gone and soon she wouldn't even have the strength to speak.
"What's the matter aren't you enjoying yourself?" the demons asked only receiving dark red tears from his prisoner; he smiled a greasy green smile only to jerk his head to the right.
He stared at what looked like a group of misfit demons, and one that was damn determined to get through the force field he had set up.
Ross couldn't do anything… this demon… this low life demon was going to take her life and virginity and she couldn't do anything about it.
' Please… whoever is up there… just kill me before he takes me PLEASE' she screamed through her thoughts as the demon went back to putting his filthy hands on her, ignoring whatever it was that had caught his attention before.
'I don't know what to do anymore
All I see is the window pane, full of empty rain
Streaming down the glass like crystal shards
Reflecting back the pain I once ignored
Light is caught in the balance of my eye
Ragged streams of empty dreams seamed across the sky
Purple haze and violent grays stitched into the air
Bring the smell of early mist and sorrow everywhere.'
((I wrote this don't steal it!))
"DAMNIT" Hiei screamed as he hit the dirt once more, Kurama couldn't do anything but watch the scene in horror… all of Ross' family was scattered behind him, Goku began to throw ki blasts at the shield… but soon heard a crackling voice behind him.
"There's no use in trying that… she's as good as taken" Firea growled evilly as she walked out of the shadows.
Hiei growled and charged at her, but as soon as the red ball appeared he stopped.
"What's the matter… don't like the fact that I can kill you anytime I please?" Firea asked, receiving several questionable glances from around her.
"What do you mean?" Kurama asked, Firea just chuckled in response
