Chapter 2
"Another victim has been found, but this time it's the body of young Michael Clemens. He was discovered by his mother this morning around 5:00 A.M. Is this the work of the same killer that killed the Claire sisters. More information at ten."
Sighing, Kurama closed his eyes as he muted the commercials and leaned back in his chair. Picking up a rustling noise he opened his emerald green eyes and glanced at the window.
"Ever here of knocking Hiei?"
"That only applies to doors."
"Right."
"I know I don't have to ask about Michael Clemens. The clues are just as helpful as with girls."
"Nothing."
Hiei shook his head, "Nope, nothing. Except this." Kurama looked his as he pulled out a silver Rolex watch."
"So? It's a watch. That's not a real clue."
"Humph, notice the color, It's silver just like the necklaces."
"Lockets."
"Lockets, necklaces, whatever. They both are worn on the neck. The point is this is the work of Reiku and Damion."
"I thought that Reiku attacked girls."
"Have you ever thought that Damion is the one that did this?"
Kuramas' eyes furrowed as he though about Damion. Her blond hair shifting in the breeze: her pale skin that shimmered in the moonlight the way her gray eyes shimmered when she laughed. He could see her as plain as day. Her soft voice speaking to him. Hiei raised his eyebrow as he watched Kuramas' glazed eyes.
"Earth to Kurama, anyone home?"
"Sorry," Kurama sighed, " What were you saying?"
"Never mined. Keep your self-updated. I've things to do."
"See ya."
"Hn."
Shaking his head he stood to his feet when he heard his mother come home. He walked down stairs as she walked in the door he smiled at her. She looked up at her son and gave him a sunny-motherly smile.
"Hey honey. Sorry it took me so long I got caught up in traffic and I meet the sweetest man, look what he gave me."
"What is it?"
Kurama looked down at what his mother held. What he saw he stood in horror. In her hand was a silver locket, embodied with silver crystals in the shape of a heart.
Hiei jumped up onto the top of a building. He looked down at the far away mansion. Narrowing his eyes he watched the manor. Leaping from the top of the building he landed in a nearby tree.
"Alright Reiku, where is your sorry ass?"
"He's right there in that mansion."
"Hiei whirled around at the sound of a female voice. Behind him stood a woman whom was slightly shorter than he was. She had knee length forest green hair. Her fierce blood red eyes fixated on him. She wore a short black mini skirt. Above the knee boots and a second skin red shirt covered by a black leather jacket.
"Where did you come from?"
"Nice to see you too."
"Things are never nice when you are around."
"You always know what to say don't you?"
"What are you doing here Austin?"
"Can't I ever just drop by to say hello?"
"You've never just dropped by just to say hello, ever. What the hell do you want?"
"Still as charming as ever, aren't you?"
"Cut to the chase Austin!"
"I just wanted to say hello, I told you?"
"Are you working for Reiku?"
Austin just smirked and stalked towards him, before saying.
"Let's say we are close friends now."
Then Hiei was grabbed from behind, pinning his arms at his sides. Austin sauntered up to him and pulled out a bandana, but before she tied it on his lips. She kissed Hiei. Hiei Tried to pull away, but with this big idiot holding him, he couldn't do much of anything. Austin pulled away, smirking. Then she tied the bandana around his lips.
"I apologize Hiei, but Reiku can't have you getting in the way of his plans."
Hiei just glared at her. Austin laughed as she snapped her fingers and disappeared. That was the last thing Hiei remembered before the darkness took him captive. The bulky brute tied him up and threw Hiei over his shoulder then he was gone in the blink of an eye.
