YAY third chap! I haven't updated in soooooo long. Two weeks, I guess?Thank you Randall Flagg2! I got a review! –cheers- k, "words" means speech, 'words' means thoughts.

There she was. Yukina. She was talking to a bird perched on each finger, as well as the birds clustered around her.
"Sweet birdies," she was saying. "Do you think I'll ever find my brother? He has to be here, doesn't he? He wasn't in Nigenkai… but what if I never find him, even here? What if he doesn't want me?" Teargems hit the ground softly.
Hiei started. She was sad? In paradise? He did want her, she was the best sister... he was the one who wasn't worthy of her… but to tell her... He leaned back against the tree and tried to work up the courage.
Hiei stepped into the clearing, scaring off the birds."Hiei-san! Hello! But what are you doing here? I didn't know Koenma- sama allowed the living to visit."
"He doesn't. But--" He held up his hands to ward off her questions/comments. "I have something to tell you."
"What? Have you found my brother? Please, tell me!" She gripped his wrists.
"I have…" he said hesitantly."Who is he? Where? Tell me! Please!" Tears formed in her eyes. "Where is he?"
"R- right here. I-I'm you brother." He waited. Waited for the rejection, the denial.
"Hiei-san… you?" He nodded. She let go of his wrists. She opened her mouth to say something, then, as if thinking better of it, closed it again. Hiei's heart sank to his stomach. Finally, Yukina flung herself at Hiei in an enormous embrace, knocking him off his feet almost sending him into a state of shock.
"Hiei-niisan! I can't believe it's really you." Tears dripped down her face.
He wiped away one of the tears with a finger."Why are you crying?"
"I'm happy! I'm so happy. I've finally found my brother."
"But.. I mean… aren't you… upset?"
"Why would I be upset?" she asked, pulling back. They both sat up.
"Because. I'm a horrible person! You deserve better as a brother."
"Hiei-niisan, you are not a horrible person! You shouldn't insult yourself like that! You've done only good in my eyes and all of the others. Kurama-san, Yusuke-san, Kazuma-san."
"I've murdered and stolen and lied! How can I have done only good?!"
"Hiei-nissan, you're a good person, a great friend, and you'll be a wonderful brother. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise! You're not like that, you've made up for all you've done, and that's all that matters! How else do you think that you'd be here? Just be happy." She hugged him again tightly and he hugged her back. Tears were dripping down Yukina's face and Hiei could feel an unfamiliar burning sensation behind his eyes. A lump formed in his throat and his face felt almost flushed. Could he be crying? A few tears slipped down his face, until he and Yukina were both flat out crying. And as those two figures sat there, hugging and crying, they felt as if they could stay that was for eternity.
Yes, I know, short chapter. Please, R&R! oh, and I think "niisan" means "brother" I'm not sure if I used it right, though. Nigenkai is the human world. And yes, Hiei has cried twice before this chapter (at least in this fic's timeline), but he wasn't in the right mind to realize what it was like either time Oh, well. Bye!
