Katanas on Ice, Hearts on Fire YYH Hiei Preliminaries
You eventually take a nap. You wake up to a blaring horn. Then an intercom system starts up and says "Will contestants 1- 14 please report to the arena for the Preliminary Tournament." You mumble under your breath, as you get ready. While you are waiting in line, someone bumps into you. "Watch it- JIN!" He hugs you. " Hey, Sheila, It's been a while!"
" It's Sheika."
He shrugs. "Whatever, Rai."
" I didn't know you fenced."
He shrugs again. "It's a hobby."
You stare at him. His hair was the same bright red, and he still had the little horn in the middle of his forehead, and his eyes were still that blue color, and he was still as hyper as ever…
"Anyway, maybe after the Preliminaries we can chat."
He nods.
And the preliminaries begin. You were #13 so you went against #14, who was a beginner, and a wimp. After you disarmed him, he begged for mercy. You were very confused. You cocked your head and said: " What the heck do you take me for? I would never take an innocent life! And besides, you are embarrassed enough to have lost to a girl." He nods and runs of the arena. You pick up his sword and hand it to a judge. Then you go to meet Jin at the sweet snow place. He was there already, with about a dozen empty bowls next to him.
" Had a lot of sweet snow? " You ask as you sit next to him. He nods. You shake your head and order a bowl for yourself. Six bowls later Jin is walking you back to your room when he asks.
"Where's Hotaru? You never go anywhere without her." Your face darkens a little.
"She's…around…" He nods.
Hiei's POV
Hn. She fights well, for a girl. He was watching the fight from a perch way up high. Her hair stood out even from above. When she had bit him in the alley, he had been pissed. He glances down at the bite mark. It wasn't swollen, but it was a pale shade of blue. And strangely, it didn't hurt. She was leaving. He jumps across the rooftops, following closely. She meets Jin at a sweet snow place. What the heck is she doing with Jin? He feels a little hot, but listens carefully. It seemed they were just talking. Then they start walking. He keeps following them. They stop and take a seat on a bench. Then Jin whispers something in her ear and she slaps him- hard.
Ooo…that's got to hurt.
She looks kinda angry, and then storms off to her room. He stops following her and heads back to the place where he is meeting the rest of the gang. Why did I get mad when she was with him?
