Hiei conjured up a fireball and started walking up the stairs. He flipped the switch and turned the lights back on. He turned around to go back down the stairs but was stopped. " Holy shit!… Oh Yukina, you scared me. "………….." Yukina stared at Hiei. " Are you alright Yukina- san?" " Oh yes oni-san. I'm fine" " On-san…. But how did you!" Hiei glared at the stairs. It was probably Kuwabara. That idiot always tells everything. He looked back up at Yukina. " Don't worry oni-san. You won't have to think about that much longer." Hiei eyed Yukina warily. " Why not?" Yukina looked at him, her eyes glazed over as if in a wonderful dream. " Because" she said as she pulled a knife from her obi. " Yukina? What are you doing!" Yukina looked a him insanely. " Good bye Hiei. " she said, and thrust her arm forward plunging the knife into Hiei's chest.
Hiei winced in pain as the knife went into his body. The burning heat was so hot it felt cold. Maybe because it's holder was an ice demon. Hiei coughed up blood, grabbed Yukina's hands, and pulled the knife out. " Yukina" Hiei stuttered. He coughed up a fresh wave of blood and sank to the ground. Yukina laughed insanely and repeated to stab Hiei who was now close to death. She slashed at his throat but missed and cut his cheek, leaving a huge gash on Hiei's face. Hiei struggled and with the last ounce of strength he smacked the knife out of Yukina's hands and drug her to the floor with him. Yukina struggled out Hiei's grip and started looking for the knife. The last thing Hiei saw was Yukina finding the knife, cackling, and turning to Hiei to get another swipe or two in. Then he fell into the warm comfort of eternal sleep
That was a year ago. Hiei stared down at his arms where… she had slashed them open. Why… Why him why… her. Yukina had been put in the psychiatric ward at a nearby hospital in Tokyo. Kurama had healed Hiei and Yusuke had dragged Yukina away with the help of Kuwabara. Nothing felt right after that. People always avoided the subject of Yukina. Hiei had gotten really jumpy and had almost killed Kurama when he was walking up to his tree. No one knew what to do. To tell the truth there really wasn't anything anyone could do.
