bladed katana..blah, blah, blah. However, steal anything from my stories

Hiei, Kurama, and Hinoki continued their journey toward Koenma's castle. They were near the gates when Hinoki grew pale. Hiei and Kurama noticed the sudden change in color and stopped just short of the gate and turned around to face her. "Are you alright, Hinoki?" Kurama asked. Hinoki looked up, she had been looking down at her feet the entire time while trailing behind them slowly. She nodded, "Yeah. I'm fine. I was only thinking, not only that, but I despise these gates. They give me a sense of insecurity." Hinoki explained. Kurama nodded, he understood, the gates were a bit discomforting. They continued inside. It resembled the inside of some giant beast's stomach. Hinoki did not look up, she disliked this part the most. Hiei pushed the intercom, "Let us in, you fools. We have the detective, Hinoki." Hiei said in his usual cool tone. The doors opened and two ogres greeted them at the gates, "Lady Hinoki, it is so good to see you. Welcome back." One of them crowed. "Yes. Yes! Indeed it is very good! Such an honor to see you alive and well. We hope you will be able to work again." The other said happily. Hinoki looked at them both blankly, "Uh.yeah. First thing after the weekend." Hinoki answered them. The two ogres strolled away, leaving Kurama and Hiei with awkward looks on their faces as they glanced at Hinoki over their shoulders. Hinoki laughed nervously, "I.I'm known very well for the effort I put into my work." Hinoki explained.
The three approached Koenma's office. They could hear Kuwabara and Yusuke arguing again. Hiei pushed the door open to reveal the scene before them. Yusuke had Kuwabara in a headlock and Kuwabara had reached up and grabbed a handful of Yusuke's black hair. Koenma was standing on his desk cheering for Yusuke. Suddenly all of them froze on the spot, staring at one another.
Yusuke released Kuwabara and straightened, sleeking back his hair after Kuwabara released it. Kuwabara ran passed Hiei and Kurama right up to Hinoki. Kuwabara took Hinoki's hands in his own as he smiled broadly, "Hello, Hinoki. I'm the brave Kuwabara. Koenma, Urameshi, and I have been watching you on his screen. You're a very good fighter. I'm Kuwabara, I'm sure Hiei and Kurama have told you all about me." Kuwabara crowed. Hinoki's face faltered, "No, I don't believe they mentioned you." She said, pulling her hands away from Kuwabara. Kuwabara fell in surprise, but quickly regained his posture. He strolled over to Hiei, "You didn't tell her about me?" Kuwabara shouted. Hiei shoved his hands into his pockets, "No. Why would I say anything about such a worthless fighter like yourself." Hiei said coolly. "Settle, Hiei." Hinoki snapped. Hiei's eyes locked onto Hinoki, but he quickly looked away. Koenma grabbed all of their attention when he cleared his throat. "Hiei, Kurama, I thank you for rescuing Hinoki. Hinoki, I think it would be wise if you returned home. I'm sure your mother will be very worried about you." Koenma announced. Hinoki nodded and quickly walked out after giving a brief wave to everyone in the room. After she left, a long silence crept over them.
Note: Okay.this was the last chapter. I want to know what your opinions are on Hinoki.
