"You sure seem to know what you are doing," I told Hiei one evening when he was rocking Kiken to sleep. "Yeah well I've had previous experiences," Hiei replied. After a few minutes Kiken finally fell asleep. I took Kiken out of Hiei's arms and laid him in his crib. I sat back down on the couch ever so quietly. "Well we better get some sleep," I said. "Sure," He replied laying down on the couch. I cuddled up against him. He was behind me, playing with my hair as I fell asleep. About six hours later I awoke to the baby crying once again. I got up trying not to wake Hiei and took Kiken out of his crib. I wrapped him in a blanket and went to sit in the windowsill. Kiken was wide awake and he could probably tell I wasn't because he tried to go back to sleep. "Hun-n goo," Kiken gurgled. "Are you hungry?" I asked him. I knew he couldn't tell me but he smiled at me. I went and got a bottle from the pantry. I filled it up with the baby solution and put it in the microwave. I was careful not to wake anyone up with the microwave. I pulled the baby bottle out and gave it to him. He gladly accepted it and eventually fell asleep again. As soon as I laid him back down again Yusuke came out of his room. "What's a matter couldn't sleep?" Yusuke asked quietly. "Nope, I just got Kiken back to sleep," I whispered. "Oh we got a mission from Koenma. You were sleeping when we got it and I didn't want to wake you. He wants us to go and investigate this old lab," Yusuke explained. "Sure…When?" I asked. "Tomorrow," Yusuke replied. "Ok," I said. "Botan said she could take care of Kiken that day so you could go," Yusuke said. "Alright I'll go but I don't think we're going to find anything important," I replied. "Doesn't hurt to look. Anyway we better get some rest," Yusuke said. "Alright," I said. "Goodnight," Yusuke said going back in his room. "Night," I replied. I curled back up on the couch with Hiei and didn't wake up until ten o'clock the next day. I woke up on the couch only to notice Hiei wasn't behind me anymore. "Figures," I thought. I sat up and tried to fix my hair. "Well it's about time you're up," Yusuke said walking in. "About time? What do you mean?" I asked. "Hiei has been up with Kiken since early this morning," Yusuke said. "He has?" I asked. "Yep. He just took him out into the woods to play…he seems to be growing really fast," Yusuke pondered. "Yeah, I noticed too," I replied. I went and changed and then ran down the stairwell. I tripped once again down the last flight of stairs. This time I turned only to see two large red eyes staring at me. I got up slowly and backed out the door. The demon slowly reached for me but stopped as soon as it hit the sunlight. I used that advantage to run into the woods where I found Hiei and Kiken sitting on a rock playing in the water. A blanket and all of Kiken's baby supplies were laid out on the grass near them. I crept quietly up behind Hiei. Kiken immediately saw me and I put a finger to my lips. He must have understood because he looked back at Hiei who was talking to him. "You know Kiken if you call me dad and you call Kiri mom wouldn't that mean you're ours…or we're together or something?," He stopped, "You probably can't understand me anyway… girls are so hard to figure out," Hiei sighed, "I know she wants to have a relationship with me, or at least I think she does but…if we don't trust each other we really shouldn't." Hiei stopped and looked away. "Do you think we should?" Hiei asked him. Kiken nodded and smiled happily. "I know you would like to and I know I would…but do you think she does?" Hiei asked again. I stopped and thought about it. I was planning on pushing him in the water, but now I refrained. "I think she does," I said sitting beside Hiei. He looked at me and smiled. "Were you there the entire time?" Hiei asked. "Yeah I've been here for the past five minutes or so, listening to you talk to Kiken," I replied. He looked slightly embarrassed, "You said you thought we should but…are we?" Hiei asked. I pulled him towards me and I kissed him. This time Hiei stopped. "I think we are," I said. Hiei smiled at me. "What are you out here for?" Hiei asked me. "I heard you were up with him since early this morning," I replied. "Yep, you were asleep and I didn't want to wake you," Hiei explained. "Do you want to get some sleep?" I asked him. "No, not right now," Hiei said, rubbing his eyes. "I think you should but whatever," I sighed and Hiei put his arm around me. "I'm fine," Hiei said. "You look terrible," I said. I laced my fingers in between his. "If it makes you feel better I'll go to sleep when we get back," Hiei said. "Fine," I said. I let go, stood up and picked up Kiken. I went over to Kiken's stuff and changed him into his swim trunks. When I went back to where Hiei was he was staring out across the pond. I slowly set Kiken down, crept up behind him and pushed him in. He quickly steadied himself and pulled me in. As soon as we finished our little water fight I held Kiken in the water. He didn't like it that much and soon enough he had fallen asleep in my arms. Hiei got out and I handed Kiken to him. He laid Kiken on his blanket and quietly crept back into the water. We were both still in our clothes and soaking wet. About half an hour later we finally got out of the water to dry off. I was laying on a rock in the sun while Hiei was leaning under a tree. I sat up and looked at him. He had his eyes closed and was probably deep in thought. "You know you'll never get dry if you sit under that tree all day," I said. "Well you'll probably get a sunburn if you sit out there all day," Hiei replied. I knew there was no changing his mind. I looked over at Kiken. He was sound asleep. Suddenly I saw the two red eyes that I had seen in the stairwell. They were right behind Kiken. I stood up and slowly walked forward to get Kiken. About halfway there the creatures claw shot out and knocked me into the water and held me under. The claw was getting tighter and tighter around my neck. Suddenly I heard what sounded like a sword cutting through something thick. I knew it must be Hiei but before I new what was happening Hiei had fallen into the water as well. He had been cut down his shoulder so bad that the water had turned red. I tried with all my might to get the claw off from around my neck. Hiei regained his strength and helped pull the claw off. A soon as we got it off we made for the surface. We swam to the shore only to see the demon standing over Kiken who was now screaming. Hiei quickly climbed the shore and ran to Kiken. Hiei grabbed him just before the demon's other claw hit the ground where he was laying. Hiei returned back to where I had just regained my breath. He handed Kiken to me. "Take him and get out. I'll take care of this," Hiei said. "Alright but promise you'll come out alive," I pleaded. "Promise," He replied. We kissed but it was soon interrupted by the demon who had tried to hit one of us again. Luckily Hiei pushed me out of the way and moved to distract him. I turned and ran as fast as I could back to the temple. About halfway there I heard Hiei yell.
