Lee: Finally I am on and ready to write. Sorry it took so long fans but I have been absolutely swamped at school.

Hiei: But you still found time to do all your homework.

Lee: That's a little more important since I need my grades up to get on the computer.

Hiei: Hn, you still could have written something.

Lee: Point taken and now I have an unexpected plot twist for everyone.

Hiei: Good! Now start writing.

Lee: Do the Disclaimer first, you evil boy.

Hiei: Lee does not own YYH. There, now do the story.

Lee: Okay here goes.

Outside Kayli's window stood a large oak tree. Its spreading limbs stretched out to overshadow part of the street. It also stretched its limbs to the very edge of the window of Kayli's room. One limb in particular was interesting that evening, not because of its size or shape but because of a short boy crouched on it. Dressed all in black, he carried a katana at his side and had a white bandana wrapped around his forehead. His hair seemed to defy gravity as it stood up straight 5 inches in the air, black with a white starburst.

Hiei yawned slightly. It had been almost 2 hours since he had changed shifts with Kurama. That made the time around 1 o'clock in the morning. Hiei yawned again. Taking off his cloak, he laid it on the branch above him and stretched out along the limb. Blinking lazily, he watched Kayli's chest rise and fall as she slept. He thought back to the meeting with Koenma. After the other boys had left, Koenma had called him back. Hiei had been the only one told about he powers and past. Apparently Koenma figured that Hiei would best be able to help this girl if she found her powers.

It seemed that the girl was the descendant of a race of dragon demons known as "The Guardians". These Guardians each had a sector of the earth to protect and each of them had a different element. None of the Guardians were ever supposed to mate, so no descendants could be made. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem since none of the Guardians would die without a fatal wound. In a sense, they were immortal. But Kayli's parents were a different story.

Kayli's father was the darkness dragon of the Guardians. He was also the head of the council of Elements, who presided over all of the Guardians and their choices. His territory that he was to protect bordered the Air dragon on one side and the Fire dragon on the other. Kayli's father met the Fire dragon on the border of their two lands one day and fell in love. Two years later, they conceived a child. From there, no one knew a thing except that her parents had been killed for their treachery. Kayli had disappeared.

Hiei smiled slightly. He had known a dragon demon around the same time that Kayli had been born. Thinking over these memories, Hiei suddenly thought of something. He rose and climbed over to the windowsill. The window was open a crack and was easy to lift. Entering her room, Hiei padded silently over to her bedside and looked down at her. The face was different but the slight smile was the same. Laying a hand on her forehead lightly, his Jagan eye opened and he slid into her dream world.

Hiei found himself on a large dark plain. It was black to the end of his vision, but only the ground was black. The sky overhead was a myriad of golds and reds. It looked something like a sunset and a sunrise melded together, except that no sun was visible. Hiei turned to his right to find mountains in the distance and a forest in front of him. He continued turning until his eyes found two figures facing each other. One was a huge dragon, jet black from tip to tail. He was so dark that the very plains around him seemed gray. The other figure looked like Kayli but she was without a doubt different. Huge wings sprouted from her back. These wings were as black as her father but they were rimmed with the reddish gold color of the sky. Her human ears were now long and black and silver claws tipped her black-scaled hands.

The two seemed to be arguing about something. Hiei walked forward a little ways until he was only about 10 yards away. Unfortunately for him, the dragon caught sight of him at this point. He spoke to Kayli.

"The Night one had come."

Kayli turned and looked Hiei over before saying, "Why is he here in my mind and what has he come to do?"

"He has come to remind you how to love and show you who you really are. When you turn 18, you will need someone to guide you, someone who had known you for what seems like forever. Someone who knows your true name," turning to Hiei, the huge dragon spoke the last word, "Kayliana."

Hiei threw himself out of her mind and jolted awake himself. As he jumped to his feet, he felt a hand grab his arm. He looked down. Kayli's eyes were open and she was staring at him with a puzzled look in her eyes. Hiei gently pried away her fingers from his arm. As soon as her let her arm go, she fell again into her dream world. The puzzled eyes closed and her face, no longer contorted with confusion, was peaceful again. The faint smile returned just as Hiei jumped out of the window.

Running down the street towards the portal, Hiei called Koenma, telling him to rouse the boys and call a meeting. Ending the transmission, Hiei's thoughts returned. Kayliana was the dragon he had known. She was his first true friend, the first one to stand beside him through thick and thin. She was the first one he had ever…loved.

Lee: There Hiei! Now are you happy?

Hiei: Interesting plot twist but lets see what the reviwers have to say.
