"What do you mean 'turning into a Demon'?" Hiei scoffed, eyeing the fox.

"I mean, she has mixed blood. Exactly half human and half demon. The blood cells are quite different and just killing eachother off. And the demon blood is winning."Kurama said. This all sounded ridiculous to Hiei."So..."He driffted off, as if not wanting to tell the rest.

"So," Yusuke started to finnish for Kurama, "If nothing disturbs her blood she will become a full demon. But then she wont have enough blood in her body, having killed so much, and she will just die."

"I could create a potion to destroy the demon blood slowly so that her body will create more blood to keep her alive, and keep her human. Or give her demon blood so that she will live as a demon."

Silence took over once again. Hiei couldn't stand it. What in Hell is going on? What are they talking about?

And Hiei was gone.

The girl lay in bed. Alone. Her father had left long ago to work at his office far away so that food could be placed on the table and a roof was kept over their heads. Her Mother had left not so long after to do...whatever it is she did. It almost seemed she did nothing but shop. Really, didn't she have enough? Couldn't that woman go five minutes without buying something?

None of that mattered though. Nothing really mattered to this girl. What was expected of her was her death. Her slow, painful, unknown death. But don't feel sympathy for this girl, oh no. She probably deserved every second of it. Why would this be happening if it wasn't part of something bigger? Like, maybe, her death would cause her Mother to freak out and divorce her father, then finding a new man whom was very rich and talented. That would make both her Mother and Father's lives better.

Maybe this girl isn't anything special and is just dieing of sorrow. That seemed most possible to her. Most likely to happen. This girl was only a tiny fragment of life in the expantions of the galaxies, having no hope and no fear only drove her to this fate. The world is cruel to those who are cruel to it. She had learned that a long time ago. But, what had she done that was so cruel? She couldn't remember. She tried to focus on just one event, one memory, but that made the pain worse.

Too many things had happened in the girl's life that could easily be added up to something greatly bad. Like when she broke that guys nose just because he was looking at her funny while walking down the sidewalk. That was not necessary and didn't help her to please a man at all. And that time when her teacher said she was a useless piece of "work" with no respect or disipline. She had guessed that tearing apart the classroom was a bit extreme.

She often thought aloud, Will anyone miss me? And once that was said, no one ever answered. And she thought that that confirmed her belief of dieing for punishment.

Really, I'm being too dramatic. All this crap is getting to my head. I need a walk. It is raining out...

Hiei was alone, sitting in the rain atop a building. He stared down at the streets and the humans and the lives being lived without him. Not that he wanted to be apart of these humans' lives. He actually didn't want anything to do with humans, regreting ever coming to this realm.

But he knew that he didn't regret it. Not that he would ever admit it.

Everything seemed too complex for this demon. Too complicated. Too...emotional (at least in this situation).

Caring for a human girl was strait out ridiculous. Hiei had no relation to her, had never even spoken a word to her (or, at least, not that she could hear.), and, dammit, didn't even know her name. Saving this girl's life would accomplish nothing for him. It would end up being a waste of time. A waste of his fucking time.

Sitting and complaining did nothing for the demon boy but make him feel worse. Worse about what, he didn't know. Just worse. Maybe it was guilt. He was guilty for thinking souly of himself and not worrying about the girl he had grown a strange liking for. But he did worry. And he did like this girl. And he really didn't think souly of himself.

This guilt was plagueing Hiei because he was going to let her die when he was capable of saving her.

He was going to let her die...

Because he didn't associate with humans.

...But, does it count if she is only half human?

Hiei growled. Yes, of course that counts! This girl couldn't mean anything more to Hiei than a sock! If she was going to die it wouldn't affect Hiei in the slightest bit. The only difference is that he wouldn't see her. Ever again.

Suddenly, without any warning, the demon boy jumped to his feet and yelled to the cold world, the fading sun, the crying clouds, "DAMN YOU, GIRL!"

And after all this time he didn't even know her name. Pathetic.
