LilPurrfection: thanks for putting me on your favorite list and on your author alert list! You have no idea how much it means to me!
Hime Hitokiri no Hanne Usa: Thanks, I liked it too, but then again I'm the author…
HieiFan666: I doubt Hiei would kill her so bloody-like or else the rating would have to go up, but he probably will do something. : )
LonelyInDarkness: hehe. Sorry for taking long, too much things to do.
Gummi Bear-Yo bff: Thanks. I promise I'll try to stay in honors for next year with you and Maggie.
Thoughtless Darkness: I've been waiting soooo long for your review! Yeah, Dawn is based off of me. My favorite color is black, but I like purple too, dark purple. My parents are WAY strict too. They say I can only go on the computer every other day now, so I might take longer to update.
Disclaimer: I don't own YYH, if I did, would I be in a fan site?
The contest ended, with Kuwabara and Yusuke clutching their stomachs and Tyra jumping around. Tyra had won, but now it seemed as though her only prize was throwing up, which she did, on Yusuke's carpet. Yusuke was lying on the couch and didn't seem to notice though. After about fifteen minutes of lying on the couches, Kuwabara and Yusuke fell asleep, shortly followed by almost everyone else. Tyra, Kurama, Hiei, and Dawn didn't though. Tyra and Kurama didn't want to sleep in the same sleeping bags, Hiei would not go to sleep next to everyone else on the floor, and Dawn didn't feel like sleeping. By four in the morning, Tyra and Kurama had given up and slept on different sides of the sleeping bag, Hiei fell asleep in the windowsill, and Dawn just decided to go to sleep. Their slumber though, was disturbed at twelve in the morning when a loud noise was heard. Everyone suddenly woke up. Immediately, Hiei, Kurama, Yusuke, and Kuwabara picked up their weapons and went to see what it was. They came back about five minutes later, bloodstained and smelling of foul demon. Their eyes though, did not show pride for being victorious, but instead, they showed fear, sadness, and anger. All of this was directed at Dawn. Nathan was the first to break the silence.
"Did anything happen?" He asked.
"It seems as though there might be a traitor…" Kurama responded.
"We trusted you Dawn!" Yusuke yelled suddenly. Nathan got up and stood in front of Yusuke, being taller than him, he looked down at him with anger.
"What are you accusing my sister of doing?" Nathan asked coldly.
"The demons outside said she was their leader, that they were sent by her to kill all of us. They even knew our names," Kuwabara responded for Yusuke. Dawn looked around with helplessness and ran out of the room. Nathan sighed and ran after her. The girls looked at them, but didn't say a word. Thirty minutes later, Nathan came back, his arm around Dawn, who seemed to have been crying for a long time. Hiei glanced around the room, and took Dawn out of Nathan's arms. He picked her up bridal style and they exited the house. The car's engine was heard as they drove away. Everyone was left speechless. Nathan started picking up his sister's belongings, and put them all in a suitcase. When he was done, he too, left the house and walked all the way to Hiei's and Dawn's house. Meanwhile….
"Do you trust me, Hiei?" Dawn asked as soon as they were in the car, "How do you know I'm not their leader?"
"Hn. Baka onna, I have a Jagan. The demons were lying, they were sent there by someone else." Hiei said. They got to their house and got out of the car. Dawn smiled and went up to her room. She plopped on her bed and fell asleep. She awoke really late, it was dark in her room. She got up and looked out her window, it was dark outside too. She rubbed her eyes and glanced at the clock. It read midnight. Sighing, Dawn sat back down on the bed, not bothering to turn on the lights and thought about what had happened. Her 'new friends' had thought her a traitor. Heck, they thought she was going to kill them. She had seen Tyra's face, full of hatred, the only reason she cried. Tyra had trusted her, and she had never betrayed her trust, but Tyra thought she had.
'Well, at least Hiei and Nathan trust me,' Dawn thought. She got up again turned on the light and searched for something in one of her backpacks. She found what she was looking for, an album. She had refused to look at this album since her mother died. In it, were pictures of her, Nathan, her mom, and even her dad. Two years before her mom died, her father was caring, funny, young, and handsome. Now, he looked worn out and cold-hearted. She didn't know what happened to her dad, one day, he was just suddenly different. He wasn't around the house anymore, it was as if it had happened overnight. When her mother died, he wasn't there. He didn't care about her mom anymore. Sometimes, he even forgot their names. He would randomly leave the house and be gone for one to three days, not ever mentioning where he was going. He never noticed them anymore, he didn't greet them or care about where they were. He hardly even talked to them. Dawn sighed and opened the album. She looked over the picture of her mom. It was nothing like she remembered her. There was sadness in her eyes, her eyes didn't have a glint in them anymore, her face looked old, her smile looked fake, her hair was a mess, and she looked like she had let herself go. She looked over the rest of the pictures and found herself crying. She set the album down and took a nap. She awoke later though, from a nightmare. The same nightmare she had had at Genkai's temple. She got up and walked across the hall, where Hiei's room was. She didn't even need to open the door, Hiei was outside his room already. He followed her without a word, outside and into the car. She was driving this time. He got in and they drove off.
"Do you know where I'm going?" Dawn asked Hiei, who was looking out the window.
"Hn." He replied. Dawn sighed.
"Neither do I," She said. Her hands tightened on the wheel. " I woke up, because of the nightmare. You know which one, the one you saw with the Jagan. My father used to care, you know. He doesn't anymore, it's like he's a different person. I know it bothers Nathan, but he never says anything. We have no one there for us, except each other. The whole thing about me betraying you guys got on my nerves. You know I would never do that. Everyone thinks I did though." She quickly changed the subject, "My mom was a nice person, you know. She had red hair like mine and sparkling red eyes. She would live life to the fullest and was pessimistic. That was good though , for her at least. She always thought the worst would happen, so she wanted us to have the best time of our lives before it did. She used to take us out of school a lot, to go on road trips, and to restaurants just to chat, and amusement parks." She looked over at Hiei, who had a sad look in his eyes. "Can I ask you a question Hiei?" Hiei suddenly tensed up, could it be that Tyra had already told her about his past?
"Hn. Go ahead." He said, deciding how to kill Tyra.
"What happened to your parents?" Dawn asked. Hiei wondered whether or not he should answer.
"Hn. Fine, I'll tell you, but if you tell anyone, I'll kill you." Hiei said. Dawn smiled, she had Hiei's trust, and that was good enough for her, but she let him tell her the story.
Okay, that's it. Sorry, this one was really, really short. I need…four reviews until the next chapter. Oh, and one more thing, who knows about Hiei's past? I don't so….that's why I ended it there. I need someone to E-mail me to tell me about Hiei's past in order to type the next chapter.
