She kissed him.
It was a soft kiss on the lips, and it had the desired effect. His arms loosened and she wriggled free to flip him over her shoulder. Kairai gave herself a mental high five and pinned Hiei on his stomach with her hands holding his arms in a hammer lock behind his back. "Surrender?"
Hiei snarled inwardly when he heard her say that word. He would not lose. That was simply something that did not happen. "Never." he hissed icily.
Kairai pushed his arm up roughly, causing a searing pain in his shoulder. He gritted his teeth, but did not cry out. Then he felt a cold point against the side of his neck.
Then Hiei did something he would debate later as smart or dumb. He kicked her rear and she fell on top of him, her dagger skittering away on the hard ground.
Kairai suddenly found herself lying on Hiei's back. She blinked and felt for her dagger. Gone.
Then Hiei flipped over so he was on top. He shifted so that he held her shoulders roughly pinned to the ground and he was face to face with her, glaring down into her surprised eyes. "You cheated."
Kairai stuck her tongue out. "I improvised." she said simply. "You shouldn't allow yourself to be distracted by such things."
Hiei blinked momentarily, then his usual glare set back in. "You're asking for it, onna."
Kairai raised an eyebrow with a smile. "You're holding back. I can tell."
Hiei blinked again. He was holding back. But why? He was very confused and wanted to get away from this girl. "All right, onna. Here's the deal-"
End Flashback
Kairai opened her eyes. Why was I dreaming that? she asked herself as she sat up against the huge tree trunk she had been sleeping on. She hadn't seen the man in black since that battle. Well, it hadn't been much of a battle. The man had agreed to surrender without much of a fight. For some reason he hadn't wanted to fight her.
End Chapter Three
Trapped
Hello there
The angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim
Of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally
If we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends
Blink 182 - I Miss You
Kairai couldn't deny it. She wanted to see him again. But, she was currently on a mission. She was tracking down a youkai that had been a particularly annoying problem for Koenma and his father.
She was finally an official Reikai Tantei. If it hadn't been for the man in black, she wouldn't be. She sighed. She didn't even know his name...
Kairai shook her head. She had a job to do! She couldn't let anything distract her. Especially not some guy!
She stood out on the tree branch, searching for signs of her quarry. She jumped down from her perch, finding nothing. She tried to walk away, but something shocked her.
She let out a cry and backed away. "Wards..." she hissed under her breath. Someone had put wards around the tree while she was asleep. She was stuck under the branches of this tree.
