Chapter 14 Over the Lamppost, through the ningens, to to Kira's plan they Go (Clever neh?)
-Few months later, about the end of October-
A pair of crimson eyes glared down to the crowd below him. Shivering slightly, he drew his long black cloak more tightly around him.
'Baka onna, tells me to meet her here for no reason and she's not even here when she tells me she's gunna be!' Hiei snapped in his thoughts as he quickly scanned the crowd for the third time, looking for Ixi from his perch on a lamppost. Finally the MIA (Missing In Action) kitsune was found. Her crystal blue eyes were scanning the crowd rapidly.
Her usual blue sleeveless outfit was gone, replaced instead with a light tan turtleneck sweater, and a pair of white jeans. Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail, tan heeled boots on her feet and a tan belt was around her waist.
'Finally.' Hiei thought as he inconspicuously jumped from the lamppost to the ground.
"Finally, what took you so long baka!?! And what is so important you had to drag me to the other side of town to tell me?" Hiei suspiciously asked.
"Drag you!?! You dragged me out here!" Ixi started.
"Kurama told me to meet you here!" The two snapped in unison and Ixi stopped, trying to hold back a laugh.
"What's so funny?" Hiei hotly asked.
"I'm betting Kira tried to set us up, then had Kurama tell us to meet each other here!" Ixi exclaimed. "Or Inyurro did. Either could have."
"Great." Hiei muttered, getting ready to leave.
"Where ya going? Might as well use this time to our advantage. Plot revenge and such." Ixi said lightly, hooking her arm with one of his.
"Right." Hiei said with an evil grin.
-With Kira and Kurama-
"So how long before they figure it out?" Kurama asked as he watched the minute hand tick past the time the two were suppose to meet.
"Not how long until they figure out, how long before they try to kill both of us." Kira said with a smile as she placed a cup of hot chocolate in front of Kurama.
"Right. Why was this a good idea again?" Kurama questioned as he watched Kira place her newest rose in the vase on the table.
"What, the hot cocoa or the setting the two stubborn ones up thing?" Kira asked, pulling a few roses out and moving them around to compensate for the new flower's space.
"The whole setting the two up one." Kurama said before taking a sip of hot chocolate. "You know you don't have to keep ever rose I give you Kira. They're not going to wither any time soon."
"Yeah, I know . . . but . . ." Kira started, a bit unsure of what to say.
"Hey Kira . . ."
"Yes Kurama?" Kira asked, mindlessly trying to fit all the flowers in the vase and not having it fall over.
"What ever happened to that friend of yours, Jynx?"
"Uh . . . dunno, sometimes she'll just leave for a while and not heard from, Ixi usually knows where she goes, but I don't think she even does this time." Kira said nonchalantly, still trying to fit the last flower in the vase.
"Oh . . . here, do you want some help?" Kurama asked playfully as he stood up and walked over to Kira who was still trying to fit the last flower in.
"Sure." Kira said, resting her head on his shoulder as he took the offending flower. Very carefully he took the now de-thorn-ed stem and wrapped it around her neck, making the white flower snake down her neckline for the pendant.
"Ooo, pretty." Kira whispered, running her fingers down the smooth stem.
"Yeah . . ." Kurama said quietly, looking at Kira instead of the flower. In one swift motion, Kurama swept Kira into his arms and carried her bridal style back to the couch.
--With Ixi and Hiei-
"Where the hell are we going kitsune?" Hiei asked in a huff as he followed Ixi through the crowded fall streets.
Ixi rolled her eyes and went back to the humming of some haunting melody with no name. Hiei muttered some foul language under his breath and continued to follow the silver hair girl. Ixi just smiled as she lengthened her stride to that of a nimble sprint. Hiei grumbling some more, sped up to follow her. He was amazed at her ability to vanish seamlessly into the crowd, and it was a good ten minutes until he found her again.
She was standing on the lowest bar of the metal railing that overlooked a crystalline lake. A few brave birds remained to swim the now likely frigid water, and their sunlit figures danced on the sapphire elixir.
Then, the vixen glanced back, coyly smiling as her image danced in the light before vanishing completely. Hiei stood rigid, wondering her intent, ready to defend if need be.
"Boo!" Ixi whispered right next to his right ear as Hiei cocked a smirk.
"You are fast." He stated calmly, still immobile as Ixi smiled. "But not fast enough." He quickly stated, darting from his position to quickly spin and pin Ixi below him.
The pair remained this way for around five minutes until Ixi spoke up.
"You can get off me ya know." She started with a smirk.
"Only if you are finished playing tag around the ningen city like a child." Hiei quickly replied, glaring into her azure eyes.
"Hmp, your no fun Hiei. I am Fox Child, not Fox Adult." Ixi stated, pushing Hiei off her. "And besides, I was going to take you to this dojo where we could swordplay for a bit, but you take all the fun out of it."
Ixi stood up, gingerly brushing off her white pants, turning to leave.
"Hn, fine what ever, you win." Hiei muttered as he went to stand up. He found he wasn't able to very quickly because Ixi had pinned him down, staring intently into his eyes.
"Nani?" Hiei asked impatiently. Ixi smiled slightly, in a pained happy way before jumping backwards and sprinting out of the park, Hiei quickly followed, wondering what that look meant.
Hiei quickly caught the kitsune girl, grabbing her wrist to make her stop. When their eyes locked, it was like time stood still. Then Ixi smiled, quickly twisting her arm to get out of his still stunned grasp.
Then, with a devilish smirk, the hi-youkai smiled and gave chase.
Ixi: Sorry for taking so long . . . but maybe if I had a few more reviews to inspire me . . . –looks innocent- Yeah well review responses below.
Nani? What?
Moonflower – Can always count on you girl. Your one of my most loyal reviewers –gives cookies and sugar- C'mon people, humor the sickly authoress . . . . please?
Hiei: Dammit just review already, she's nagging me about it.
Ixi: Yes, yes, what the annoyed fire demon said.
