Ok peoples I have decided not to make the triangle between Hiei, Kurama,
and Kagome. I'm taking Kurama out of it and putting Inuyasha in his place.
I'm so sorry to all the Kurama fans, but I don't want to have to make Hiei
and Kurama fight. I don't like it when that happens in other fics, so I'm
not going to let it happen in mine. I'M SO SORRY! Please don't abandon me
for this!
Also, thanks to all my reviewers! I'll eventually get around to thanking you all individually, but for now this will have to do. I love you all!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in this fic.

Chapter Seven- A Quick Detour
The group finally got Sango calmed down and they were trying to get Kagome out of the tree, but she refused. "How do I know she's really not pretending to be calm? I want proof!"
"Oh come on Kagome. I was just mad. I'm fine now. So come on down," Sango reasoned.
"I'm still not convinced!"
"Feh, stupid wench." Inuyasha jumped on to the branch and grabbed her arm, ready to pull her down. He found a katana at his throat within the second and a fire apparition growling at him.
"Release her halfbreed," Hiei said coldly.
"Inuyasha immediately let her go and jumped down to the ground. Everyone asked him what happened (Hiei had jumped to a branch out of their sight when he "saved" Kagome).
"Feh, stupid youkai. Wouldn't let me touch her." This statement shocked the hell out of Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama.
'Seems the koorime(Sp?) has taken a liking to the miko.'
Yes it seems so.
'Perhaps we should encourage him some...'
No. We'll let him handle it himself.
'You're no fun.'
Whatever. Kurama decided to then ignore the mischievous kitsune for what he hoped was the rest of the day.
"I'm going to try and get her down," Kurama said. He walked up to the base of the tree and looked up. Even with his enhanced vision he could barely see them. He listened in to see if he could hear anything and was shocked to hear them carrying on a conversation. The normally quiet Hiei seemed quite talkative. Kurama smiled and walked back to the others and suggested they let Kagome and Hiei catch up later.
"What! We need the wench to find jewel shards! She has to come!" our favorite inu hanyou yelled.
"We're perfectly capable of walking. We can head out and she can point us in another direction when she catches up later," Kurama explained.
"I agree with Kurama. It seems Kagome-sama needs a little more time to cool down after her run-in with Sango," agreed Miroku.
"Feh, fine. The wench can stay here. But I don't think it's safe for her to stay here with that short guy."
"Okay then. Let's move out. I'm betting Hiei heard our plans so there's no reason to tell them," Yusuke said.
~*~*With Hiei and Kagome~*~*
It had taken her a lot of persuading, but she had finally gotten Hiei to tell her a little about himself.
"So your sister doesn't know that you're her brother?"
"No."
"I think you should tell her. I mean, from your story it sounds like she's a nice girl. I don't think she would care about your past crimes."
Hiei was silent for a moment. Then, "Perhaps I'll tell her. But you have to come with me. It is your idea after all."
Kagome smiled at him (she does that a lot, doesn't she?). "You want me to come with you?" He nodded. "Thank you. You just made me feel better than I have in a while. With all of Inuyasha's put-downs I was beginning to think I wasn't very well liked. Speaking of Inuyasha... Where'd he go?"
"Everyone left ten minutes ago," he replied.
"What? Why didn't they tell me?"
"Kurama and the monk thought it best to let you calm down. We can easily catch up with their slow pace."
"How easily?"
"For a day at their current pace, I could probably reach the same point in 45 minutes."
"So why don't we go see your sister now? I really want to meet her."
"Fine." He grabbed her and dropped down out of the tree. As soon as his feet touched the ground he took off with Kagome I his arms.
They arrived at the well in a few seconds and immediately jumped in. After being transported to their time, Hiei leaped out of the well and started to run towards Genkai's temple.
They were there in a few minutes and Hiei put Kagome down right in front of Genkai. Her face had been flushed from the wind and she was giggling like a giddy schoolgirl.
"What brings you here Hiei? And who is this girl? I sense tremendous power coming from her," the old psychic said.
Kagome bowed politely and introduced herself. "Hello, I'm Kagome. And you must be Genkai-sama." Genkai nodded her head at her and she continued. "Hiei is here to talk to Yukina."
Just as she said that, Yukina walked out. "Did somebody just say my name?"
"Are you Yukina?" The ice apparition nodded. Kagome pushed Hiei forward and said, "Hiei wants to talk to you."
"Oh, okay. But may I ask who you are?"
"Oh, sorry about that. I'm Kagome. I came with Hiei so that I could meet you and Genkai-sama."
Yukina smiled and said, "Pleased to meet you." She turned to Hiei and asked, "What did you need to talk to me about?"
Kagome, seeing that Hiei was uncomfortable, said, "I think he wants to speak with you in private."
"Okay. Follow me. I know a place where we can talk in private." She started to walk away, but stopped when she noticed that Hiei wasn't following. "Are you coming?" Hiei nodded and grabbed Kagome's arm.
"Huh? Hiei, why'd you grab my arm?"
"I told you already. You are coming with me."
Kagome sighed and said, "Fine. I'll come. But I thought you only meant come with you to Genkai's temple." Still, she went with them.
The two followed Yukina into a garden at the back of the temple. She turned to Hiei and Kagome and waited for one of them to speak.
They were both quiet until Kagome got impatient. "Hiei, tell her now. We have to get back soon."
So, Hiei told her everything.
~*~*After explanations~*~*
Yukina was about to cry because she was so happy. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
Hiei remained silent, so Kagome answered for him. "He was worried that you would reject him. He thought that his past would make you hate him."
Yukina turned to her brother and asked, "Is this true?"
He stayed quiet, but nodded.
"How could you think that? You're the only family I've got. How could I hate you?"
Hiei looked at her, searching for any trace of a lie. He couldn't sense any lies in her words and was overwhelmed with pent up emotion.
Kagome took this chance to slip away. She snuck back to the front of the temple, only to run into Genkai.
"Kagome, I want to ask you a question."
"Umm, okay."
"Would you like me to train you so that you can become stronger?"
Kagome's eyes lit up and she said, "Really? You'd be willing to train me?"
"If you're willing to cooperate, then yes."
"How long would the training take?"
Genkai shrugged. "Depends on how hard you work. It took that slacker Yusuke six months to complete the first half of it. He still hasn't come back for the second half."
"Six months, huh? I'll do it! It would be great to have some kind of power that I can actually control. Is it okay if I come back in a week for the training? I think that's probably the earliest I can get away from Inuyasha."
"I like your attitude. I'll give you one week. If you're not back by then I'll not train you."
"Thank you so much, Genkai-sama."
Just then, Hiei and Yukina came around the corner. Kagome ran up and hugged Hiei, startling him to death. She pulled away and said happily, "Genkai-sama said she'd train me!"
"Hn."
"Wow Hiei. Thanks for the support."
He raised an eyebrow at he and she smiled. "I think we should be getting back now. Inuyasha is probably really mad by now. After all, he needs his 'shard detector' to find the jewel."
"Goodbye you two. Come back soon," Yukina said.
"Bye! I'll be back in a week," Kagome replied.
Hiei picked her up and took off. They soon arrived at the shrine and jumped into the well. When they arrived back in the Sengoku Jidai, Hiei went directly to Kaede's hut and set Kagome down.
Kagome sighed. "The easy part was deciding whether or not to accept the training. Now comes the hard part. How in the world am I going to convince Inuyasha to let me go?"
