Chapter Five

Different Thoughts On the Matter

"No." Kurama whispered to himself. The red-head turned to see the family. The girls were all standing together with looks of horror on their delicate faces. Hiei, on the other hand, could be seen wide-eyed and mouthing the name 'Shakira' over and over again. Kurama had to turn back round at this sight. He never liked to see Hiei like this.

Hiei fretted over the loss of the sweet Shakira. Would he ever get her back?

Hiei's POV

No. This can't be. We were just reunited!! I swore to myself that when I found my family, I would never let them go!! But I did. I failed.

"So, what're you gonna do when you find your sissy?" asked a small Kurama. "How am I supposed to know?" Hiei retorted. "Well, if I was you, I'd have had this all planned out by now." Kurama stated. "If you was me, I'd be a school-loving dork." Hiei hadn't meant this to sound so mean, but that was just the way it had come out. He looked over at Kurama and apologized. "Sorry Kurama. I don't know why I said that." The fox-demon looked over at the fire youkai. "I do. It's your personal business and I shouldn't have insulted you." The friends walked along in peace for a few minutes when Hiei spoke up quietly. "I know what I'll do." he said. "I'll be as nice as I possibly can and never let them go. I, Hiei Jaganshi, swear on the Holy book of Makai," "There's a Holy book of Makai?" interrupted Kurama. "No, it just sounds cool."

"Oh."

"Right." Hiei cleared his throat. "I swear that when I find my missing family, that I will never let them go and I will make up to them for leaving them in the first place."

Normal View

Hiei clenched his fists. He yelled. "Ahhhh!!! We need to go save her!! Come on!!" He ran quickly out the door and grabbed hold of his katana along the way. The others folowed and soon they were out on the streets and were coming to an amusement park. "Hiei," Kurama said gently. "How do you know this is where she is?" "I smell it." Hiei said coldly.

The group went inside and found the place deserted. "Well, it just makes it easier to kill people." Yusuke said. High pitched screams were heard and they followed them to a cavern called 'The Cavern Of Death'. "No one takes my sister away from me and gets away with it." Hiei whispered to himself. They went inside and found a man with waist length white hair tying Shakira to a chair. Her eyes were not bound and she was gagged.

"You BITCH!!!" Hiei yelled grabbing his katana and running towards the man. The man turned round and very quickly grabbed his own katana and parried the blow. He had fierce blue eyes with a ring of white in each. Shakira's eyes warned Hiei not to cross this man. The man pushed the sword down and brought his back up quickly and stabbed Hiei through the stomach. Hiei fell backwards onto the ground on his back. He writhed with pain.

"Die, demon." the man said as fierce as his eyes were. "What's your effing name?!" asked Yusuke. "My name? Limara." "Sounds like a rat poison." whispered Yusuke. Limara raised the bloody sword and said,"You saw what I did to your unfortunate friend." Limara jerked his head in Hiei's direction. He was still writhing. Yukina rushed to his side and started to heal his wound but failed. "Don't-worry.........I'll-live. I've...had worse." Hiei said through clenched teeth.

"Hey Hiei?! What's it feel like?!" yelled Yusuke.

"Do you really want to know, idiot?" Hiei hissed.

"Well, duh! I wouldn't have asked if I didn't." Yusuke said arrogantly.

"It feels like I'm being cut up into tiny little strips with a blunt axe." he replied coldly.

"Well, it's good to know the charm is working." Limara said.

"Charm?" Kurama asked.

"I was going to use a pain charm on the girl if she wouldn't shut-up but now I see that the pain part works, not the shutting-up."

"You're gonna die!" yelled Kurama. "Rose-whip!"

"Spirit-gun!!" Yusuke helped the fox-demon to kill Limara.
