Ch9: A lonely soul
Kagome looked out of her window… and sighed as she realized that she couldn't put off going down stairs forever.
She didn't want to face the truth… that Hiei wasn't coming back.. a pang of guilt shot at her…. At what she had done to him… she had grown to love him… to accept him… over such a short period of time… and obviously so had he… she wondered where he had gone to… she knew why he had left…. He couldn't stand her… and she didn't blame him….
But it hurt her to know that he was in pain… and she had put it there… she should have known what he was thinking… with the way that he had been acting…
Kagome turned her head … casting a quick glance at her clock….
3:00pm
She heard commotion going on down stairs and she knew that she would soon be disturbed….
She reluctantly got up and walked into the bathroom… she felt sick…. She was hungry… and she was in so much pain…
She walked over to the mirror and watched her reflection as she undressed…
Dizziness over took her as she bent down to turn on the water… grabbing at the plain white wall to steady herself..
She looked down at the bubbles that the water had sprung to life….
I cant… I cant be-
Tears stung at her… threatening to over take her.. and ruin her with emotions she had thought long gone….
She shook her head to clear it as she stepped into the silky warm water… lowering herself into its comforting embrace..
Her hand rising to rub a slow circle gently on her stomach… -can I be…-
She choked as she thought of what this meant…
She couldn't deny that it would be something that she had hoped for ever sense she was a small child… but if it meant Hiei would get hurt… for her selfish reasons… she couldn't do that..
She curled her body into a tight ball in the water.. as she started to cry and shake horribly over the choice she knew she would have to make…
Could she do it…
I want Hiei-
Her body cried out for him… her soul needed him… but he would never come to her…
-Am I pregnant?- she thought her heart aching… telling her that she couldn't be… she cant be
But her brain beat at her… knowing the answer… -yes-
She cried as she wrapped her arms around her more securely pulling her soul as deep down as she could.. hoping it would hurt less..
But it didn't…..
Kurama… picked up a blue napkin and started to wipe up the tea he had just spit out….
"What are you thinking Kurama?" Yusuke asked Kurama as Sota went to into the other room…
Kurama shifted his stance to look at his friend… " what are you talking about?"
Yusuke gave him a look that had ' im not stupid written all over it'
"What did Youko say to you that caused that kind of a reaction" He again gave Kurama a look that told him he meant business..
Kurama sighed .. knowing that he had lost the battle.. " Youko thinks that Kagomes illness… may be related to Hiei" he looked up waiting for Yusuke to say something..
But he didn't… he just stared at him.. " what?" Kurama asked trying to put an end to the eerie silence that had fallen between them…
Yusuke stopped himself before he started to scream.. " please don't tell me that… because what I am imagining now is making my head hurt…." Yusuke mumble… shaking slightly at his attempts to control his rage…
-how could Hiei do this to Kagome.. if she is really.. well that would explain her throwing up-
Kurama let a small chuckle escape his being at another thought of a little Hiei running around…
"Its not funny" Yusuke looked over at Kurama from his spot in the corner of the kitchen… " think about Kagome… how she must feel.. im sure that if we can figure it out.. that she has already found out herself.." he whispered not wanting Sota to hear and cause Kagome more pain then he was already sure she was going through…
Kurama could sense the hate and anger coming from the calm looking Yusuke… " do not think that I have not taken her thoughts into my consideration.. Yusuke… and I to want to find Hiei and tare him limb from limb.." he trailed of his Ki spiking at the thought of Kagome in any kind of pain..
Kurama… he didn't know what that thought was but he knew he didn't like it… he had grown a kind of loyalty to the girl.. and seeing her hurt by his friend just did things to them.. not just him.. but Youko to…
"We need to find Hiei… I think he'd want to know that Kagome is Pregnant.." Yusuke stated flatly…
"Do you think that I haven't tried.. really I have… but he's nowhere to be found" Kurama grimaced at the look that took hold of his friends face…
Yusuke pushed himself away from the cold kitchen counter… " I have had it with his bull shit… when that midget gets back… im gonna kill him.. then strangle him… then kill him again…."
Kurama rubbed his forehead as Yusuke trailed off still grumbling as he held out his hands in front of him to demonstrate what it was he was think in his mind.. and rambled on about how to beat Hiei into submission with naked pictures of Kuwabara…
Kurama sighed again as he left the room and re-entered the living room…. He glanced around.. not finding Sota anywhere… then he heard a faint sound at the corner of his mind… his eyes went wide
/Hiei/
/ hn… what are you doing now/ Hiei growled out
/Standing in your mates house… where are you Hiei/ Kurama tried to drown out the other sound… that he could hear coming from upstairs… he resisted the urge to go to her and comfort her…
/ I need to speak with you… it is urgent… / Hiei let a note of sorrow slip into his voice…
/Kagome needs you Hiei… shes not good…… but tell me where you are and I will come/ Kurama pretended he didn't hear Hiei's pain in his last comment
/ is she ok/ Hiei let slip his emotions for just a second…
/ she is safe but…she is very… / Hiei all the sudden cut into what the fox was about to say.. / we don't have time for this… meet me in Makia… an bring the stupid ningen with you … now/
Then the connection was cut off… and lost.. Kurama smiled.. he knew where Hiei had wanted to meet…
He walked into the kitchen to find Yusuke was still doing the same thing he had been doing when Kurama had left..
"Ill take .. his …. Head.. and shove it in .. the ground… then pictures… of Kuwabara… in his wallet…" Yusuke grumbled as he felt Kurama come into the room .. " what do you want?"
Kurama gave Yusuke a sly look that said he knew something.. Yusuke visibly lightened at this… "what do you know?"
"I know where Hiei… is.. we have to meet him.. call Kuwabara.. get him over here to guard Kagome…"
Yusuke smiled at this change in events … pulling out his black communicator… " hey Boton… get Kuwabara.. over here now…."
Kagome sulked as she picked up her body and stepped out of the tub… her body dripping… she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her …
She walked into her room and pulled on some pants and a blue tank top…
She stood in front of her mirror and brushed her hair.. then crossed her room and opened the door… slowly stepping down the stairs…
She walked into the living room and was about to walk into the kitchen.. when she heard what Kurama and Yusuke were talking about…
She walked up to the door and leaned against it and listened.. masking her aura
" I know where Hiei is… we have to meet him… call Kuwabara.. and get him over here to guard Kagome.."
she then heard a small ringing noise then a girls voice…
Then she felt it… a large amount of Ki.. then it was gone… Kurama walked to the door and let a pissed sounding Kuwabara in… Yusuke couldn't help but snicker at the carrot top… his comment about the pictures coming back to him.. Kurama turned to Kuwabara " stay here… we need to find Hiei… I think we may have a problem"
Then they left.. Kuwabara walked into the room and spotted her.. " hey Kagome.. what are you doing there.."
Kagome pasted a fake smile to her face… " nothing.. im just getting a drink… you want something?" she asked as she entered the kitchen.. " hey.. that sounds great!" Kuwabara said.. oblivious to the fact that she was lying…
Kagome smiled at him as she handed him a cup of hot tea…
-Hiei don't you love me?- she asked herself as she excused herself from Kuwabara
she walked out of the back door after putting on her shoes …. And setting her tea down on the table… She walked around the house … hoping that no one could see her … then she jumped down the shrine steps… and onto the street… intent on helping some how….
" THERE SHE IS…. AND NO ONE AROUND TO SAVE HER… THIS WILL BE EASY…"
A dark figure stood in the shadows as it watched Kagome leave the main street and walk for miles till she came to the out skirts of the city… heading down a deserted old road… that he was sure led to a very old.. very renowned temple…. But not for another 3 miles….
" But shes not alone… she has another soul with her… shes with child… cant you tell… have you no shame…"
a small voice echoed to the dark figure… his blood red eyes never leaving the girl… " that only makes it that much funner…" he smiled to the small demon… his lip curling up over a large white fang … as he left the shadows.. heading right at Kagome…
