I sat outside the door in the hallway and thought about it but I was also eavesdropping. "Do you think she took it the wrong way?" Yusuke asked. "No, just give her time to think about it and she'll be fine," Kurama said. "I hope so," Yusuke replied. "You should be more worried about what the Jagan will do to her. If I remember correctly when I first got the Jagan it tried to take control of my mind," Hiei said. "What?! You told me it wouldn't hurt her!" Yusuke exclaimed.
By that time I was running down the hall going out of the building and into the woods. When I got there I stood in front of a tree with a tremendous pain going through my head. It was a pain like the Jagan was trying to talk to me. I screamed and yelled because the pain was so bad. That's just where Yusuke found me, on my knees, holding my head, screaming. He tried to comfort me by telling me to not scream and it would be alright but he didn't get it, I didn't have control. When I yelled the loudest he held my shoulders to stop me from doing anything stupid but I pushed him away from me and started to bang my head on anything.
Then he stopped me and did something I never knew he would do. "Kiri, Get a hold of yourself! You are not going to give up, you can't!! You cannot let the Jagan take control!" Yusuke yelled. I stopped screaming and looked him in the eye. I blinked twice, and shook my head. "Yusuke, what happened? Why does my head hurt? All I can remember is running out and standing in front of a tree in the forest," I stated. "You lost control to the Jagan," He stated, "you started to scream and bang your head on stuff, just like I did when I received the spirit wave orb." So Yusuke and I sat down and Yusuke told me the story of how he got control of the spirit wave orb(like i care).
After a few hours Yusuke and I went back to the room to find every one sitting in the living room waiting for us to return. "Is she ok?" Kurama asked Yusuke. "She lost control just like Hiei did, but she's out of it now," Yuske replied. "I'm glad to see you're alright," Rikku said. Rikku then turned to Yusuke. "I'm so glad you saved her. I know how scary that must have been. I don't know what I would have done without her," Rikku said to Yusuke.
"No problem, she is my adopted sister I'm supposed to take care of her," Yusuke said hugging me. "So what do you think about being a demon?" Rikku asked. "It feels the same to me," I replied. "Come on let's go do something," Rikku stated. "Okay," I answered. So we went into the girls' part of the room, shut the door, and listened to the boys talk. "Hey Hiei, you're the expert, will she need a wrap around her head like you?" Yusuke asked. "Yes" Hiei replied quietly.
"Okay. Kurama if she has a Jagan does that mean she has spirit power?" Yusuke asked again. "I don't know. We can't ask her because she probably doesn't know either, so we have to try to bring it out of her," Kurama answered. "How will we do that?" Yusuke asked. "Challenge her to a fight." Kurama suggested. Hiei stayed out of the conversation. "We could make her mad but what does she hate," Kurama asked. Hiei and Kurama both looked at Yusuke. "What?" Yusuke asked when he saw them staring at him. "You know her better than anyone else what does she hate?" Kurama questioned. "Spiders," Yusuke said. "Spiders...spiders...aha! I got it!" Karama said.
Then the voices turned into whispers and we couldn't hear anymore. "I wonder what there going to do," Rikku stated. "Whatever it is I'll give them a show," I laughed evilly. "What you have sprit power?" Rikku asked. "Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you," I replied. "What's your attack?" Rikku asked. "Shadow Electricity," I answered happily. "Is that your primary or secondary?" Rikku asked again. "Primary," I said, "My secondary is Darkness Bind, but I only use that when I kill my opponent because it goes into the heart of your opponent and cuts off the circulation of the blood flow to the brain." "Cool!" She replied.
We stood up from leaning against the door and when out laughing and talking like we didn't hear anything. The boys, Kurama, Yusuke, and Kuwabara were still huddled together when we walked out. "What are you guys doing?" I asked. They all turned to look at me with innocent smiles "Nothing," They all said in unison. The next morning I was up before everyone except Hiei, who was sitting in the windowsill as usual.
"Hi, Hiei. Are you always the first one up?" I stated. "Yes," Hiei replied. I walked over to the windowsill and sat down beside him. "What do you think about when you sit here?" I asked. "My family most of the time, sometimes other things like the tournament," Hiei said. "Oh. What was your family like?" I asked.
"I was born in the Floating Kingdom of the Koorime, high above Makai. The Koorime were a race of ice youkai, legendary snow maidens who had the ability to cry pearls. Tradition had long held that the mothers of the Koorime gave birth to female twins, both ice youkai, but my mother, had loved a fire demon, and as a consequence, she gave birth to me and Yukina – me, a male fire youkai, the other a Koorime girl.
I was condemned by the Koorime elders as a sign of misfortune, not to mention a grave threat to the Floating Land of the Koorime, being a fire demon. They commanded Ruri, a friend of my mother's, to cast me over the edge of their lands to die far below in the wilds of Makai. My mother could do nothing but watch as I was dropped into the fathomless cloaking mists that surrounded their land," He turned away, something restricting his chest till it was painful. "Oh I'm so sorry," I said, "I didn't mean to cause you pain," "You don't understand," Hiei answered.
"Now that I know I'm a demon...I don't know where I came from or my real family, and it is painful and I do understand.... well you probably won't believe me anyway. Never mind," I said sadly. I turned away from him. "Wait," he said quickly, "I would believe you," There was a moment of silence, both of us where thinking about something.
"Well I know where I got my Jagan..... My father.... He was a scientist and I'm not even sure who I am any more. I was experimented on and....." I stopped thinking about it. Hiei waited silently for me to continue. "And I was used to my limit. After that I was just annoying to my father. I wanted attention, I was only 6 and I needed someone. My father committed suicide and I was left alone....but you seemed to turn out ok, right?" I asked with a half smile. "Yeah," Hiei replied, "and you did too."
"No, I didn't. After I watched my father kill himself I became a shadow child...my hair turned dark and my body slowly died not from starvation but from disappointment and confusion. Two weeks later I ran out into the woods. I didn't eat, I couldn't. I had forgotten. When the police found my father they had immediately come to look for me, they missed me 6 times. For two years the only two things I had were Rikku and distant memories of my older brother, Yusuke. After two years of searching for my brother I learned he had died and I gave up. I didn't want to live anymore and it hasn't gotten much better for me and I'm still recovering. Not like you, you've had time to think it over and to get over it but from what you've told me I'll probably never get over it." I explained. "I guess you do understand," Hiei said.
There was a moment of silence. "Why didn't you come tell me you liked me yourself?" Hiei asked. "I was afraid you would act differently if you knew," I said. "I don't treat people differently for any reason," Hiei stated. "That's good," I answered. "Here I have something for you," Hiei said taking something out of his pocket, "It's a bandanna for around your head. Yusuke couldn't find one so this is one of my spare once in case one breaks. You need to where it until you learn to control your Jagan, but even then you should only take it off in battle."
"Thanks," I said taking it and trying to put it around my head exactly right. "Let me help you," Hiei said. So I turned around and he tied it exactly how I wanted it. "Cool, how'd you do that?" I asked. "Practice," He replied. "Can I ask you something?" I asked him. "Sure," He replied.
