CH. 15
Hiei ran towards the tree with his sword drawn ready for attack. He jumped into the air easily dodging any whipping vine or hurtling branch. He slashed the tree in half and it became completely still in an instant. Hiei had a look of victory until Kuwabara walked up and tapped his shoulder. When Hiei responded, Kuwabara slowly pointed in front of them to reveal that every tree in the forest was alive and each one a mind of its own. Hiei nearly tripped in surprise and no longer thought of his dilemma as an easy task. He knew without a doubt, things were only about to get worse.
Kagome ran up next to Hiei and whispered something into his ear. Meanwhile, Kuwabara and Yusuke were thrashing about fighting the evil ghost trees. Hiei drew his sword and Kagome gave it a gentle touch, giving it Miko powers as well as making it glow a black aura. The sword was used by Hiei, a warier of the dark, so the sword turned black. It is said that you can tell a lot about a person by the color of his or her aura.
Hiei merely pointed his sword at a tree and it burst into flames. A look of excitement adored his features as he turned every tree into a flaming torch. Kagome was pleased that she could be of at least a little help.
"Bloody Hell," Shouted Sesuren, "Miko powers, didn't see that one coming." He chuckled and realized that all they were doing now was torching all his trees so he tapped the book and the spell broke. The servant girl looked up to think of another spell. She had been taught many spell as a young child as her mother was a spell caster of some kind; she never thought to ask. Just then she came up with the perfect spell, although it may be overdoing it a bit.
"Things aren't always as they may seem
As there are many enchantments in the forest of Thee
Sometimes you may not always feel like yourself
But you won't know why, and get no help
As people switch bodies and bodies switch minds
Your voice will cry out in a variety of kinds.
But don't worry, it isn't really that way
The question is will you find that out today?"
Hiei sheathed his sword. Yusuke walked over and looked a bit antsy. "Now I've been attacked by spiders, demons, zombie humans, normal humans, hit-men, teachers, an old hag, my relatives, Hiei, boy bands, big things of energy, doctors, mind readers, women…sort of, big cats and Hell, I've even been attacked by a gas truck; but I have never, ever been attacked by a tree!" Yusuke yelled at the top of his lungs.
Hiei nodded. He walked over to Kagome. Kagome looked at him and smiled. She walked over to Kuwabara and held his hand. Kuwabara gawked and Hiei nearly fainted. Kagome started walking but Hiei stopped her. "What in Hell are you doing?" Kagome stared for a moment. "What's the mater Yusuke…I always do this and you never had a problem with it before." She said as Kuwabara slid out of her grasp.
Hiei walked up to her and nearly growled. "This is me Kagome, you have just touched Kuwabara!" He yelled. Kagome looked confused. Shippo also looked confused. "Kagome, they are telling the truth." Kagome looked over at Shippo and Hiei walked up to him and picked him up. "Then this must be some sort of fox magic if you are immune to it." Hiei said as the little fox climbed onto one of his shoulders. "It isn't fox magic that is making Kagome think you are different people, I'm immune to almost all magic, but I guess this is a very weak spell then. It should ware off after a weak or so…"
Hiei looked at the fox. "Can it be sooner?" He asked. Shippo smiled. "Yea, sure I can, but Hiei, there will be a little bit of pain, and all three of you have to be far away from each other. That way I can reverse the spell no problem." Shippo explained. Kagome giggled. "Way to go Shippo, my little man always on top of things!" She exclaimed. Hiei snorted.
They all went to different parts of the forest. Genkie had come to help after Hiei sent her a mental note. She would look after Yusuke, Kagome would look after Hiei, and Shippo would look after Kuwabara along with reversing the spell. Kagome sat Hiei down in a cave and started a fire. She didn't like the idea that this person that looked like Yusuke was Hiei; she liked the way Hiei looked, not that she didn't like the way Yusuke looked or anything, in fact if Hiei hadn't come into her life first, she probably would have fallen for Yusuke…that is if he didn't already have a girlfriend. Kagome felt strange. Why was she thinking about things like this now? Hiei sat looking at her with a strange expression. She knew he could hear her.
"Would it kill you not to listen to my thoughts?" She asked irritated. Hiei smiled. "I wasn't listening to your thoughts love, but if you are thinking something of my interest…" He suggested. Kagome then blushed and that made Hiei nearly laugh. This girl was so very precious to him, yet why he could not understand. He had never felt this way for anyone much less a human. He used to think that humans were useless creatures with not a single good trait in them. Once he met Yusuke and the others, he began to see differently. Although he hated Kuwabara with every inch of what he had of his soul, he still thought of him as a friend and would back him up in battle. He had learned the meaning of friendship with them, but Kagome had taught him something else, something he thought most important, but at the same time, painful. That was why he never cared for the human emotion. Love was the one thing that had made him afraid to talk to Yukina for so long. Love was the thing that mad him cry so much when his mother died. Love was the thing that bothered Kagome to no end.
So why did this emotion even exist? Why does no story sound right without a little romance? Why does there have to be a happily ever after? But with love always comes consequence. The person may fall out of love and go to someone else leaving the other person to wallow in their grief. This was the kind of thing Kagome was going through; the kind of thing that pushed her away from him. Human emotion seemed so useless to him, yet he felt incomplete without it. He knew that she had feelings for him, but why? He had done nothing to earn the love of a pure creature like Kagome. But no matter how much he knew he did not deserve her, but he could not bare the thought of loosing her. As he was thinking this, Kagome had gotten sleepy and, without realizing it, curled up in a ball on the cave floor.
Hiei looked at her and smiled. This was the great warrior who had apparently lived through so much torment and defeated Naraku, a terrible and monstrous beast who was the cause of so much pain. Hiei wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her hair. This act he would never get tired of. He loved her, he knew that now. Kagome was the only person ever able to make him truly happy. She gave him noting but love and trust in return. How that stupid "Inuyasha" person didn't see this magnificent girl was beyond him.
Hiei started to feel warmness inside; the spell was breaking. Kagome groaned as she snuggled a little closer to Hiei. Hiei closed his eyes for a little while just to rest his eyes…or so he thought.
"Are you done yet, because I'm really starting to feel like Hiei?" Kuwabara complained. Shippo nodded. "How does it feel?" He asked with his hands over Kuwabara's chest. Kuwabara grunted. "Like a pain in my neck that's what. I don't see why some sick person would want to turn me into some little creep. I swear I'll…hey, hehe, getting a little sleepy…"
Shippo sighed. This was going to be a long night.
"How do you feel Dimwit?" Genkie asked. Yusuke rolled his eyes. Of all the things he could have turned into, he had to be this dope. He had gotten his share of being Kuwabara a long time ago and he never wanted to go back. Yusuke felt like just jumping off the face of the earth and go to sleep. But he'd have to deal with sleeping here.
Well, that's that for today! I hope you all read more stuff I put up here and I will try my best to make you guys happy!
