~ Dark Takeover: Chapter 3 ~

Aklyis sighed as she closed her eyes and leaned against the large tree.

"That was close, way too close," she scolded herself unaware she was being watched.

The black haired fire demon stood silently on a tree branch watching the girl's every move. He had never seen her before, but she was wandering on his territory. Hiei knew neither of the girls had any intention of trespassing, but he couldn't stand humans like them. Humans who didn't know their place, and didn't know how to stay away from places they didn't belong, particularly HIS forest.

Aklyis could have sworn she saw out of the corner of her eye a shadow zip by the side of her head. Having that gut feeling they were not along, Aklyis spun around only to find the cool feeling of a sharp blade against her throat. Panic instantly began to cloud the young girl's mind.

'How did they find us?! I thought we had run far enough!'

However, she was cut out of her thoughts when she saw the person holding his katana to her throat. He seemed to be around her age, with wildly spiky black hair, and haunting blood red eyes. He was wearing a cloak, and no signs that he was a spy or soldier in disguise. Slowly beginning to calm down, Aklyis realized she and her sister had probably just trespassed somewhere. The problem was, the boy seemed pretty upset about it.

"HEY!! LEAVE AKI ALONE!!" came the glass-shattering shriek from Miya

"Shut up or I'll kill her." Was the boy's monotone reply.

Aklyis could tell he was deadly. He was no ordinary thug or common thief. This guy knew what he was doing.

"We're sorry for walking into your territory. But it was the only place we had to go." Aklyis stated calmly, trying to seem as professional.

"Hn, whatever, you little girls should learn to stay home and do as your told. Not wandering around like two chickens with their heads cut off."

"HEY!!! WE'RE NOT LITTLE GIRLS!!! AND WE HAVE NO HOME TO GO TO!!!" came Miya's protests.

Unfortunately Hiei wasn't too fond of loud people.

"Be quiet, you're scaring off the trees," scowled Hiei.

Aklyis was starting to become uncomfortable with a blade at her throat and she wasn't too happy with the insults being thrown at her sister. It was time to take action. Noticing the boy was off guard, Aklyis used the opportunity to kick his arm away, and jump high into the air.

'I'll just knock him out, and we'll run for it' she thought to herself, completely unaware of the fire demon's true skill, or even the fact that he was indeed, a fire demon.

Hiei looked at the girl calmly, smirking to himself he used his ungodly speed to get out of the way.

Aklyis' eyes widened. 'He just...disappeared!'

But before she could complete her train of thought, she took a hard blow to her left cheek, sending her crashing into the ground. Meanwhile Miya was attempting to shoot the quick little bastard down. Even though she was probably the best archer around, Hiei was too fast.

'A fire demon..' Aklyis thought to herself wiping some blood away from her mouth as she pulled her bruised body off the ground with great difficulty. 'We have no place here. Unless..'

Miya was still trying to shoot down Hiei, but neither her, nor the feisty little demon noticed Aklyis summoning Yutaka and Leiko, her dragon spirits. However the silence was quickly broken when a red light engulfed Aklyis and the ground began to shake.

Both Miya and Hiei turned their attention to the girl summoning the immortal spirits.

Suddenly, two giant red dragons charged at Hiei out of a giant glyph that had appeared in the sky. Hiei, not knowing what to do exactly, knowing he could never outrun these, decided the only thing he could do, was summon his own Black Dragon Wave.

'What's he doing? Don't tell me he can counter Leiko and Yutaka..' Pondered the brunette dragon wielder. However, her question was soon answered when a giant Black dragon erupted from the boy's already bandaged hand. It wasn't a living dragon, but a black wave of fire, with the head of a dragon. However, it seemed very alive to Aklyis and Miya.

Red and black fire clashed in an eruption so great it sent all three teenagers flying, and landing very ungracefully on the ground.

Hiei had never seen anyone, or anything withstand his dragon without being turned to ash. Aklyis had never seen anything give her dragons so much trouble.

Hiei was frozen; he couldn't believe what was happening.

'How can a GIRL defeat my Black Dragon Wave?!'

The battle raged on, but neither side seemed to be really winning. It seemed that both sides were beginning to let down, becoming tired of fighting. Suddenly the Black Dragon Wave began to dematerialize and disappear into the air. The red dragons Leiko and Yutaka began to move away, and slowly disappeared back into the rubies on Aklyis' katana.

Aklyis could do nothing but stare.

'What was THAT?!'

However in a flash she was on the ground her katana out of her hands, with Hiei standing above her, his katana once again at her throat.

Hiei stared down at the girl. He had to admit, he was impressed. Slowly his expressionless face turned into an amused one, as a smirk played upon his lips. Aklyis stared up at him in confusion. Why was he smirking at her? But once again, in a flash, he was gone.

Aklyis stayed put for a few moments, trying to contemplate what had just happened.

"Aki!!! Are you ok??" Miya asked her dazed sister worriedly.

"Yeah, I'm...fine."
