CH.4

The drums sounded. Everyone got ready for the giant knife to fall. In the crowd, a young woman is dragged to the wooden stares. She makes no effort to escape. Her long silver-blue hair was swaying in the slight breeze. Her scarlet red eyes glowing with hurt and anger. She was tall and slim. Her beautiful face showed nothing but sadness.

As the crowd quieted from the cheering for this death, the woman's silky hair was brought to the side of her slender shoulder. Her head was lifted into the small wooden circle. A man in black stood at the edge of the rope ax in hand waiting for his signal to bring it down.

A curious young child no more then 7 years old walks into the crowd and up to the front. Once he gets to the front of the crowd, he meets the familiar face of his mother. A giant knife was hovering just above her neck. As she looked at her son, she turned pale.

"Hiei"! Don't look! Don't look! She shouted to her son in the crowd as she turned from sadness, to worried all at once. The drums went wild and everything seemed to come to a pause. The young child stared wide eyed at the horrid scene before him. His mother's attempted screams to save her son much pain was futile. She gave one last cry to try to get her son to turn back. But he seemed paralyzed. The boy could not move, move from the shock and pain. "NOOOOO!" Hiei! The ax was lowered and the knife fell. The boy stared in shock at what he had seen. He looked in horror at the blood on the rope and wooden circle.

The boy fell to his knees as tears slowly made their way down his cheeks. "Ma…ma". The boy chocked out. His head fell into his hands as he burst out into tears. "MAMA"! He yelled into his hands. "MAMA"!

"MAMA"! Hiei burst from the chair and stood in the middle of the room shivering. Hiei stood for a few seconds before falling to his knees on the soft carpet.

Kagome herd the scream and sat up in her bed. She put the night coat on and went to the top of the stairs. She looked down and saw Hiei in the middle of the room shivering. She then remembered that she did not know absolutely everything about what was going on. So she would ask in the morning. She only had two days before her mom, brother, and grandfather came back from their vacation. Once that day came, she would have to explain to them why she has a demon living with them for a few days. Kagome walked back up to her room waiting the next morning.

Kagome quickly walked down the stares to the find that the fire-demon was already awake along with Shippu watching TV. Kagome sat in a chair nearest to the one Hiei was in. "So, she said drawing the demons attention, there are a few more things I must know. Hiei looked at her. Of coarse the woman-child had to make his job even more difficult by asking some stupid questions. Humans should really learn to keep their mouths shut and do what they are told. "Hn"

"Well, she began, why are you protecting me, and from what? Hiei sighed. "Stupid human, Hiei thought. "Wench, did we not already go through this? Kagome sighed. "I guess I'll have to teach him the way I taught Inuyasha. Kagome got up and went upstairs.

When Kagome came down again with a strange beaded necklace (hint, hint nudge, nudge) and walked over to Hiei. "Put this on. She said. Hiei eyed the piece of jewelry and then narrowed his eyes at Kagome. "Why? He asked suspiciously. Kagome gave him a two second evil glare. And then before he could blink, the overgrown bracelet was around his neck. Hiei desperately tried to get the necklace off (unsuccessful of course) gave Kagome a very, very cold stare.

Kagome however, just smiled. "So, I think it would be in your best interest to tell me everything you know about this. Shippu looked at the fire-demon and smiled. If he did not obey, then he will most likely become good friends with the dirt. Hiei huffed. "Hn. Just because you have succeeded in putting a stupid bead ring around me, does not mean I am to stoop to your level.

Shippu looked at Hiei, getting ready to see the poor fire-demon's face smash hard to the dirt from the beads' spell. Kagomes anger flared. But she also had a hint of amusement within her. This would be fun. "You know what, you need to cool it! Suddenly Hiei's body froze. It felt like a very large glass of ice water spilled right down his body, covering every inch with the freezing cold wetness. Then he fell to his face into the floor.

Once Hiei recovered, he wanted nothing more then to just strangle the troublesome vixen within his own hands. To hell with his stupid job! This girl was getting on his god damn NERVES! Hiei brushed himself off. "So" Kagome said happily as if nothing had just happened; I want to know more, can you help me out?

Hiei sat again into the chair and looked at the floor. Not wanting to go through that again, he replied the only way he knew. "Hn. Kagome leaned forward to hear better. Hiei sighed. She will not give up. And for the life of him, he could not figure her out. She was small, but she was strong, and brave, choragus, yet not a showoff, pretty, breathtaking, bloody hell, I'd better stop, before this, gets out of hand. Hiei mentally shook himself for the strange thoughts and went back to her question.

"I am sure you know of the Shikone Jewel of four soles" Hiei asked. (For those of you that don't know, the Shikone Jewel of four soles, or the Shikone no Tama is a jewel that, if wished upon, will grant that persons wish, then vanish. But if the person just simply keeps the jewel, and does not wish upon it, but still wants to use it, they will gain at least 50 times their own strength) Kagome nodded. Well, we believe that someone has found out about the jewel being here. If that is the case, then you are in grate danger. As much as I may hate it, my job is to watch over and protect you. Kagome closed her eyes.

"I think I may need more protection from you then any other demon after the jewel". Kagome said. (Ok, so saying she wasn't happy with the particular arrangement, was a bit of an understatement, so what) Hiei smirked, then smirked even more when he saw the look she gave him when he did so. "But wait, I haven't even gotten to the best part yet. Right now we don't have a painless way of getting the jewel out so… he was immediately cut off when Kagome slammed both hands on the table. If you don't mind, I have a few things to say right about now! One, the jewel can't come out, I am chosen as it's protector, second, F.Y.I, I am a powerful priestess, and not completely helpless, third, how the hell do you get your hair in that position (just had to ask that one), and last, wha, what do you mean painless? Hiei sighed; this will be a long day.

Well, that was that chapter. I will try to update soon, please review!
