Wow, I can't believe I'm writing already, it's Thursday right now but this probably won't be uploaded until Friday or possibly Monday. Hehe, it seems that when I'm grounded my chapters come faster than when I'm not! Usually I get one out every like two weeks or so... Anyways, here's Hiei! Oh and please excuse any uneven spacing, this keyboard is more messed up than most.

Hiei

As he flitted through the trees, Hiei wondered what he had gotten himself into. He DID have insomnia and he probably COULDN'T go to sleep if he tried. He hadn't been thinking of how he was going to complete his bet, he had been thinking of his revenge against those idiots for plotting against them. Damn, what am I going to do?

Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara

Kuwabara was still in hysterics on the floor and Yusuke was staring at Kurama. Kurama was still looking at the door, seeming worried.

"Hey, What's wrong Kurama? We pulled it off didn't we?" Yusuke asked sounding confused.

"Yes I suppose we did get what we asked for..." He replied, smiling wryly at the hidden meaning in his words.

"So... I don't understand why you look so grim but me and Kuwabara are gonna go celebrate, you can stay here and worry if you like." Yusuke said amiably.

Kurama smiled softly, of course Yusuke hadn't caught the double meaning of his words, he wasn't that smart. As his other two companions left the room, he sighed, laid down on the couch, and fell asleep.

Hiei

It was around six o'clock, three and a half-hours after he had left the room, Hiei mused. He still hadn't found a way to force himself to sleep or, if desperation was reached, to knock himself out. His thoughts were along those lines of thought as he wandered halls of the dark tournament hotel.

"Hiei?" a soft feminine voice called, "Hiei is that you?"

Hiei spun around startled, he had been so deep into his thoughts that he hadn't realized he was no longer alone. His eyes lit upon a pretty, young woman with sea-green hair and eyes as red as his own. His sister, Yukina.

"Yukina? What are you doing here?" He asked trying to sound less frustrated than he felt.

"Oh Kazuma-kun has been having trouble sleeping lately so I decided I would try to find a sleeping potion for him, but I couldn't find anyone to sell me one." She replied.

Hiei sighed in annoyance, finding a potion had been his next plan of action.

"What's wrong Hiei? You seem troubled." Yukina asked concernedly.

He looked at her. Well, I can't very well lie to my sister, even if she doesn't actually know she's my sister. Maybe she can help. He thought to himself.

"Well, I heard Kuwabara, Yusuke, and Kurama plotting against me last night." Yukina's eyes widened slightly, "Not that way, they wanted to embarrass me. Anyways, they were discussing what would be the best way to get me to bet them that I could go to sleep. I was angry and decided on a plan, I would go along with the bet and get them to agree to stay up all night and one day when I won the bet. What I failed to think about was how exactly I was going to get to sleep. Because they were right, I am an insomniac and I can't sleep. So now I can't think of anything I could do and you just said there are no potion venders around so I am getting slightly worried." Hiei finished with another sigh.

"Well, there are human ways of curing insomnia. Kazuma-kun has some sleeping pills in his bags but they don't seem to work very well, he says he still has trouble sleeping even when he takes more than his dosage. Maybe you could ask Keiko what other humans do for sleeping problems." She suggested helpfully.

Hiei laughed, "Kuwabara is having sleeping problems because I think it is amusing to scare the shit out of him with nightmares so horrifying his puny mind wouldn't even be able to begin to imagine them on his own. I had been wondering why he was harder to scare lately, you say it's those pills?"

Yukina looked surprised, "Yes it's the pills, but Hiei! That's so mean-spirited! He's your teammate! You should want in good fighting condition for his fights! You could be endangering his life!"

Hiei looked astonished, Yukina was yelling. Yelling. Not talking with a raised voice, yelling, his sister his quiet soft-spoken sister was yelling at him! He shook his head slightly.

"I'll stop if you wish." He muttered.

Yukina looked even more surprised than before and stammered, "Y-y-y-you will?"

"Yes of course, I'm not quite horrid enough to unnecessarily worry a girl for the sake of my own amusement." Hiei said, slightly amused at her surprise.

"Oh, thank you Hiei-kun! Thank you so much! And I promise not to tell Kazuma-kun that it was you!" Yukina exclaimed.

"Erm, I have a favor to ask of you." Hiei paused looking uncomfortable.

"What is it Hiei? I'll do anything!" She said, her eyes shining with happiness at solving Kuwabara's problem.

"Would you try to get those pills from Kuwabara? They may be the answer to my problem." Hiei said quickly, rushing to get it out. Yuck, he thought, I hate asking for help.

Yukina smiled, "Of course Hiei! Kazuma-kun won't be needing anymore now that you've promised to stop tormenting him. Let's go right now!"

Hiei nodded and they headed in the direction of the room.

Okay, well it's nearly the end of U.S. history and I fell like now is a good place to end the chapter, I might update again later today, I'm typing during lunch and for an hour after school. Well, I hope you enjoyed this new installment of 'The Prank'.

OH YEAH! One of my reviewers had a question, Priestess Rin wanted to know what the author alert list is. It's an option that lets you get an email update of when that author updates any of their stories or creates a new one. If anyone has anything to add to this explanation, just add it in your review! Kay, Bye for now, be back soon!
