Thanks a lot to Animefouryou for reviewing my story. . Here it is Chap.3. I hope its better than 2. I absolutely hated 2. Please review. It would make Hiei and me so happy.

Orpheus lost his beloved wife. He went down to hell to save her. He made a pact with Hades; he was never to look upon Eurydice while they were on their journey back to earth. Orpheus broke the taboo and looked upon his wife. Eurydice returned to the darkness, which would be her home for the rest of eternity.

"Please, Kurama, stop crying. I'm beggin' ya!" Yusuke said.

Poor Kurama was surrounded by his friends. They were trying to comfort him. Hiei hadn't been seen in three days and they still needed his help to fight Micha. Kurama was so upset because he had told Hiei he loved him. Hiei had run out and hadn't returned.

"I don't know what I was thinking." Kurama said through his tears. "It just came out, I didn't mean to say it. Now he hates me and its all my fault."

"No, no. He doesn't hate you. He's just doing some…soul searching…" Yusuke stuttered out.

Keiko glared at him. "Kurama, calm down. He cares about you a lot. He's just confused. I doubt he's ever been in this situation before. Give him some time." She said softly.

Koenma was furious. He and Botan had been searching for Hiei all day, but they just couldn't find him. He still needed to help them defeat Micha. Botan and Koenma had ridden past the park, but they failed to notice the small fire demon in the tree.

'So, they're looking for me. Fools.' Hiei thought from his spot in the tree. He couldn't stop thinking about Kurama. 'That stupid fox. I can't believe him. I wonder what he's doing now. I bet he's really sad. I hope he's not crying. I don't want to see his pretty eyes filled with tears.' Hiei stopped for a second. 'No, his eyes aren't pretty. They're just eyes. But they are a little pretty. Hehe. The green eyes match perfectly with his red hair. He is really pretty.' Hiei stopped again.

"I need to stop thinking like this. Damn." Hiei looked to the sky then bounced off to find Koenma and Botan again.

He had made it to Koenma's office. The tiny leader just stared at him.

"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? ITS BEEN THREE DAYS! DID YOU FORGET I GAVE YOU A MISSION?" he yelled.

"No." Hiei said calmly. "I simply went away for awhile. But now I'm back."

"Well, I'll tell the others your back and then you guys need to train so you can defeat Micha." Botan said. Then she flew away on her big oar.

"Hiei, I think we need to talk." Koenma said.

"Why? There is nothing to talk about." Hiei said.

"Yes there is. You shouldn't have ran away like that. You really hurt Kurama." Koenma said.

"What was I supposed to do? It's not fair. He's my best friend then he did something like this. Why should I be the bad guy?" Hiei said.

"You know he didn't mean it. It just slipped out. He was in a bad state of mind at the time. A really bad state of mind. Besides I can't have you two fighting each other when I need you to fight Micha. You two work together better than anyone." Koenma told Hiei.

"Whatever. I'll help you fight Micha, but right now I don't want anything to do with Kurama. " Hiei said. Then he turned his back, signaling the conversation was over.

'I'm sorry I'm hurting you so much, Kurama. But you're my best friend and that's all I want to be.'

"Hiei's back. He's waiting in Koenma's office." Botan told everyone at Yusuke's apartment.

"He's…back? No, no, no he can't be back." Kurama cried.

"Wait, I thought you wanted him to be back. I'm confused." Kuwabara said.

"I did want him back. I mean…I wanted to know if he was OK. But…I can't face him. I don't want to." Kurama said.

"If it makes you feel any better, Kurama, he didn't seem angry at all when he came to see Koenma and me." Botan reassured him.

"He didn't?"

Botan shook her head.

"Well…that doesn't matter. He's an expert at hiding what he's feeling. He's probably furious at me right now. Oh, what am I going to do?" Kurama said, burying his head in his hands.

"Well, I know this isn't really going to help, but you have to meet him. We can't beat Micha without you and Hiei. You don't have much of a choice." Yusuke said.

"I know that Yusuke! Just please let me think!" Kurama yelled.

Yusuke backed off. It wasn't often when Kurama yelled so when he did, you listened. The others couldn't help feeling sorry for him.

"OK. Yusuke's right. I don't have a choice. I have to meet him if were going to defeat Micha. Let's go." Kurama said. He got up and left. Botan, Kuwabara and Yusuke followed him. Keiko stayed behind for obvious reasons.

"I've never seen Kurama like this before." Botan whispered to Yusuke and Kuwabara. Kurama was a good ways ahead of them so they didn't think he could hear them. Plus they were whispering. A fox demon's hearing could only be so good.

"I know. But, can you blame him? Hiei has been his partner in crime and best friend for a long time now, and then something like this happens. He's broken hearted." Yusuke said.

"Yea. So, what do you think is gonna happen once we defeat this demon? Do you think Hiei and Kurama will be friends again?" Kuwabara asked.

"Who knows? Hiei is pretty much a cold-hearted person. I don't know what he's going to do." Botan said.

" I hope he doesn't do anything to hurt Kurama even more. This isn't right. Kurama is usually a happy person. I hate seeing him like this." Yusuke said.

Kurama suddenly stopped walking. "Could you guys please talk about something else? I'm already upset as it is and you three whispering behind me isn't really helping. I know you didn't mean it, but please change the subject." Kurama said to them.

The other three just stared at him. He started walking again.

"Sure thing, Kurama!" Botan said cheerfully.

"How was he able to hear us? Wow, he must have really good hearing for him to be able to hear us." Kuwabara said.

"Umm…. OK guys. Let me take you all to the spirit world." Botan said.

'I'm really sorry, Hiei.' Kurama thought. 'I didn't mean to hurt you like this. You weren't supposed to know. What will you do when you see me? Will you act like nothing happened? Or will condemn me and curse me to no avail? I couldn't blame you if you did. I deserve it. I had no right to ruin your existence like that. I was your only friend, then I went a betrayed you. I don't even deserve to wield the rose. It's so beautiful and could never hurt anyone. Yet I soiled it, just like I ruined you. I'm sorry, Hiei. I'm sorry."

They finally made it to the spirit world. Kurama readied himself for meeting Hiei. Anyone with eyes could tell he was nervous.

Kurama walked into Koenma's office with the others behind him. He saw Hiei sitting on a couch. He looked at the ground then walked over to a chair and sat down. Yusuke kept standing and Kuwabara sat by Hiei on the couch.

"It's about time you guys got here! You've all had a long break so I expect you to train hard in order to beat Micha. You have to work together if you want a chance to beat him." Koenma said, emphasizing the have.

"Sure, sure. No problem. When haven't we worked together? We'll take down this guy and everything will be all right.:" Yusuke said.

"Don't be too cocky, Yusuke. Never underestimate an enemy." Hiei said.

Kurama's eyes widened when he heard Hiei's voice. It was only three days, but it felt like eternity since he had heard it. He kept his head down and didn't look up for the rest of the meeting.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Go train!" Koenma yelled.

The boys left and went to train. Kurama didn't know what to expect from Hiei. He would no doubt work with him. Kurama didn't want to think anymore. He just wanted to go home and cry in his pillow. And after the meeting that's exactly what he did.

OMG! This is taking so long! I know I keep promising Kurama will die in the next chapter but it never happens! Gosh! Ok this time for real! In chapter 4 he will die! I will refuse to not have him die! Then Hiei will go down to hell and save him and that hell saga will really be interesting. Please be patient with me. Kurama will die in chap.4 I promise!
