All characters here belong to the makers and producers of Yu Yu Hakusho and J.K. Rowlings respectively. I only own Raven and the storyline and since I make no money from this, don't sue me. I'm poor anyways. So sit back and enjoy and please review. As always, flames welcome as long as you are polite and give constructive criticism. I can't spell lol.
He sat alone at his desk in the corner of his living room. Over and over he did the math, reworked the numbers, the conclusion was always the same. Prices were skyrocketing and tonight they had gotten the notice that their rent was being raised. Kurama sighed to himself, damn. Hiei wasn't able to keep a job in the human world due to his full time involvement in missions from the spirit world, that left it all to fall on Kurama's shoulders financially.
Sighing he stood up and rotated his shoulders. No doubt about it, they would need a housemate to help with bills. He walked towards the bedroom, Hiei was gone tonight, on patrol with Yusuke. With nothing else to do, he crawled into bed and shut off the light. They would just have to discuss it in the morning.
Hiei stood on a street lamp, near the window, watching Kurama get ready for bed. The fox was worried about something tonight, he could tell. He watched him silently till he heard Yusuke's footsteps approaching below. He would just have to corner the fox in the morning is all. Muttering softly "Nothing I can do about it now" he jumped down beside his friend, matching his speed.
Yusuke looked at Hiei as he landed and then to the darkened window of his friends bedroom. "Kurama asleep already?" Hiei nodded but said nothing else. Yusuke shrugged and kept walking, these nightly patrols were so annoying. They continued their patrol for a few more hours before calling it a night.
Hiei went home his usual way, over treetops and lightpoles. He landed silently once again on the lightpole, looking into his own bedroom. He was about to make the jump to his windowsill, ready to crawl into bed next to Kurama when fast moving footsteps reached his ears.
Turning in surprise to the left and could make out a sole figure running. A dark robe and cloak hid the identity, but the person was short. Three taller, similarly dressed figures appeared out of the darkness, chasing the first person. He watched with narrow eyes as the figure ran past the lightpole and over to the canal across the street. "Stop" came the call out of the group of three as the small one jumped over the side of the canal, towards the water. Hiei was prepared to jump to save the foolish person when a black raven zoomed out of the canal and over the head of the three men, past Hiei. He decided to stay and watch the scene instead of getting involved.
The men had not seen the raven and were standing at the edge of the water, talking low. Hiei could make out their words, just barely. "Do you think she apparated?" "She must have, stupid woman, jumping like that." "The master is not going to be happy about this at all." The others nodded their cloaked heads when one spoke up again. "How was she able to deflect our curses?" There were muttered words of anger when suddenly all three pulled out small sticks and disappeared with a wave of the sticks. Hiei blinked in surprise "what the hell?"
A soft caw, bordering on a laugh, was heard near him, he turned and saw the raven on the next light pole. It was staring straight at him. With a shake of it's feathers, if spread it's wings and flew off into the night.
He blinked and then jumped on to his windowsill, letting himself in quietly so as not to wake Kurama. He must have been hallucinating. 'I must be more tired then I thought', he mused as he crawled into bed next to Kurama and curled up next to his husband. With a tired sigh and a small smile as Kurama pulled him close in his sleep, Hiei drifted off to sleep.
Two small green eyes watched the small man fall asleep from atop the lightpole on the other side of the street. The raven flew and landed on the sidewalk, turning into the small cloaked figure. A very feminine face looked up at the window and then shrugged and walked off down the street, disappearing in a soft word after five steps.
