I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho or anything related to it.

Hiei woke up the next morning early. His room was now completely black, although he did leave the light on most of the time. Without his demonic abilities, he found himself hindered very much. He couldn't see in the dark as well, he couldn't search for energies, and he even was finding it hard to practice with his katana for a long time. Hence, getting up early.

That half-breed...I will show her what true power is. I'm not weak and I won't live under her rule. Especially if it means going to one of those...torture places Yusuke and Kuwabara are always talking about.

Her quick defeat of him the night before was still fresh in his mind. As he went through warm-ups, the scene kept replaying in his mind. She thinks she's so tough, just wait until I get my powers back. For hours Hiei went through workouts, pushing himself and finding his new "human" limits. He didn't like the fact that he now had limits.

A knock on the door was loud compared to the only sound in his room–his heavy breathing.

"Hiei, Koenma said he was coming over in an hour or two, and he's bringing your friends," Katina's voice called. He listened for her footsteps leaving, but he couldn't hear them. Then he heard a similar message being repeated at Angel's door. He felt deaf and blind suddenly, and it wasn't a nice feeling.

The next knock on his door came a little while later. He was now just sitting on his bed, staring off into space.

"Hiei, it's me Kurama. Everyone else is here too," Kurama said from the other side of the wall. "Hn," Hiei replied, but he walked out the door. Kurama looked at his friend with concern. He knew how difficult it was to be stuck in a human's body.

They walked out into the living room were Angel was on the windowsill, Katina was chatting with Koenma and the two buffoons were wrestling. Amaya was cheering Yusuke on, but stopped clapping when she saw Kurama.

"Kurama, do you know how to set up a Playstation 2?" she asked sweetly. He seemed a lot smarter to her than anyone else in the room, and he was nice and smelled pretty. Kurama smiled and was about to say yes, but Kuwabara and Yusuke had stopped at the word Playstation. They jumped up, previous battle forgotten, and grabbed the game console that Katina had just dug out of the cabinet. They squabbled over the cords, but after a few minutes got it set up. Soon, they and Amaya were staring at the television, controllers in their hands.

Katina sighed, "Well at least now they can't break anything."

Hiei sat down on the couch and shot a glare over in Angel's direction. Kurama sat next to him and smiled.

"So, which school are they going to be going to?" Kurama asked. Koenma paused a second before saying, "Yours, Kurama. I thought it might be nice to give Hiei some contact with somebody besides these two girls." Then he frowned. "Maybe you can also help Katina exercise some control over Angel's skipping problem." Kurama laughed softly.

"If Keiko can't keep Yusuke from skipping, then I'm afraid I won't be a match for anybody."

Angel abruptly stood up. "I'm going to train." Koenma waved her off and continued to talk with Kurama and Katina, with Hiei injecting a "hn," every now and then.

(Wow, way too many K's to type. xx)

Later, everyone drifted outside. Hiei tried to spot a tree he could climb, but could find none. It was one of the things that bugged him most about being human. He couldn't jump into a tree. Instead he sat on the concrete wall surrounding the backyard. Everyone else settled on the porch and talked.

"So that girl, she's intense, huh?" Yusuke asked, referring to Angel. She was currently on the other side of the house, at the small arena their forest contained.

Katina sighed, but replied, "She isn't so bad, she just isn't good with people in general."

"She's a fire demon, though, isn't she?" Kurama asked. "She doesn't seem to get angry easily."

At this Katina smiled slightly. "She tries extremely hard to keep her emotions in check but so much so that she doesn't seem to feel anything." Kurama nodded, as if agreeing. Then he glanced over at Hiei. "Next week Yukina wants to come visit. She couldn't come this week because she had a client that Genkai needed help with." He didn't direct the statement at Hiei, rather he said it to everyone.

Kuwabara frowned, which, if possible, made his face look even uglier. "Why would Yukina want to come see Hiei? She ought to be spending her weekends with me instead," he said. It was a good thing Hiei was currently powerless. Instead a light-weight dagger found it's way right in front of Kuwabara's nose. He gulped and took it out from the wall and laughed nervously.

He was interrupted by Angel walking over and sitting on the wall opposite to Hiei. Katina looked over at her then asked, "Upper or lower?" "Lower," Angel replied. "What are you talking about?" came Yusuke's question. Angel smirked, "Hiei's height." Hiei snarled and stood up but Angel was gone in a blur. Hiei looked around but couldn't see her. Then a slam was heard. Angel had a yellow-skinned demon up against the wall, her katana to his neck. Everything else was silent when she asked, "What are you doing in my forest and who sent you?"

The demon hesitated. Angel growled slightly. "Speak quickly, I will know if you are lying."

Unseen by everyone else but the demon, her green eyes turned gold. The demon began to tremble beneath her grip. "I was spying for Keiji! Please don't kill me!"

Angel looked off into the distance for a second then swore, "Keiji, dammit." It was under her breath but everyone still heard it. She then threw the demon into the air, and glared at where his body landed. He burst into flames and, in a second, was a pile of ash.

Angel started to walk off, but Yusuke jogged up to her. "Who's Keiji? Is he someone who's after Hiei?" Angel didn't even glance at him, she just kept walking. Yusuke grabbed her shoulder and turned her around. "Hey, I want to know if that dude is after my friend! The least you could do is say something." Angel glared at him, before replying evenly, "Keiji is none of your concern, he's not after Hiei." Yusuke scoffed at her. "How do you know that?"

Angel clenched her fists. "Because he's not concerned with some ningen."

Katina, quiet until now, yelled out from the porch, "Angel!" Angel immediately stopped. Her aura had crept out. It looked like gold fire. She closed her eyes for a second and it disappeared. Hiei looked confused, because he couldn't see it, but Kurama whispered it to him. Angel then walked off. Yusuke looked stunned. How powerful is she?

Katina broke the silence. "So, what does everyone want for lunch?"

Tell me what you think, review PLEASE! I decided to put Hiei in school next chappie, cause this one was getting a little long.
