Back When We First Met

Chapter Fifteen: Training With Hiei

Hiei Jaganshi and Reina Takashi walked through the forest surrounding Genkai's temple going towards the south which was the opposite direction Yusuke and Kari had taken. The two of them walked until they reached a clearing the they stopped. Hiei remained silent as he brought out an extra katana and tossed it to Reina. She caught it, of course, but she almost fell at the surprise weight of the the weapon. Hiei slightly smirked and watched her as she tried to get the sheath off. The key word is tried.

"What the helll is up with this stupid thing?!" Reina asked as shes began to waved the katana in the air vigorously as an attempt to get the sheath off. She continued to do that for a while the she sat on the ground. She placed a foot on the hilt of the katana and began to pull on the sheath. After that in attempt and a few minutes later, Hiei grew bored of watching the kitsune hanyou try to get the sheath off of a katana. The fire apparition walked over to Reina.

"Baka onna, give me that katana." Hiei demanded as he held out his hand expecting her to obey and the katana be put in his hand but of course not. That was not going to happen. Reina turned her head and glared at him then went back to her task of taking off the sheath.

"I don't need your help, Hiei. I think I can do this myself and I don't need to hear about how you think I'm a baka." Reina told him coldly as she continued to pull on the sheath. Hiei just stood there waiting for her to finally give up. Finally, after another five minutes of Reina trying different things and cursing under her breath, Riena sighed and stood up.

"Fine, here you go. I like to see you do it, Hiei. Knowing you, you probably put some kind of glue on it just so you can watch me fail." Reiina said as she shoved the katana in Hiei's hands. Hiei just scoffed and gave her a look.

"No, you're just a weak hanyou." Hiei simply told her then easily removed the katana from its sheath in front of her face. Reina glared at him coldly as Hiei gave her back the katana.

"I hate you." Reina told him simply as she snatched the katana away from him.

"Good. Let's keep it that way." Hiei told her in return then walked a ways from her spot and unsheathed his own katana. The three eyed fire apparition got into an attack position and Reina did the same. He graoned inwardly and gave her a cold look. "Hold it right or you will definitely hurt yourself."

"Aw, thanks for caring about me, Hiei." Reina told him jokingly with a small smirk. Hiei glared at her then attacked her with his katana. She barely blocked the attack as she was pushed back by the force of the attack. Hiei pulled back and smirked.

"See? That is the reason why you need to hold it right. You won't be able to block properly." Hiei told her like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Reina once again answered him with a glare that almost could be equal to one of his own.

"Thanks for the information but DID YOU HAVE TO TRY TO KILL ME, YOU LITTLE PRICK?!" Reina asked with her eye slightly twitching in anger. She scoffed then looked at how Hiei was standing in his attack position and how he held his katana but she couldn't see any difference. It looked like she was doing the exact same thing as he was doing. "Anyways, how is your stance any different from mine? We're doing the exact same thing if you hadn't noticed!"

"Baka onna." Hiei said with a scoff and stuck his katana in the ground beside him then walked past her. She thought he had decided to go back to the temple so she sighed and relaxed. Suddenly she felt someone behind her moving her hands into the correct positions in holding a katana. She instantly began to blush when she felt Hiei's warm skin over hers.

"Hn, stop being such a baka and pay attention to the positions of your hands." Hiei told her with an emotionless tone which made her blush even more knowing that he knew about how he making her feel. Even so he still didn't move his hands away from hers. Maybe he enjoyed torturing her like this. She was so easy to make feel uncomfortable. He leaned his face foward beside her ear. Reina could easily feel his hot breath on her skin. "Now do you see the difference?" (WhOa! OOCness!)

"Yeah, um, sure. I guess I see it." Reina told him trying to keep her attention to the difference of the positions of her hands. Hiei rolled his eyes and let go of her hands, goingback to his spot next to his katana which was still sticking out of the ground. He easily pulled it out of the ground and gave her a look.

"Onna, you either get it or you don't. Which one is it?" Hiei asked her slightly coldly. He was now wondering why the hell he was the one choosen to train such a baka such as Reina. Reina sneezed three times and sniffled. She then sighed and looked over the position of her hands were now in to see if there was any difference from how she was holding the katana earlier.

"Okay, so maybe I don't get it. Sue me. But here's something to consider though. I"m not the kind of person who always carries a katana with me wherever I go just in case I feel like killing someone." Reina said directing the last sentence towards Hiei. The fire apparition was starting to get sick and tired of her. What am I saying? He was already sick and tired of her. So much that he began to attack her. Reina was able to block his attacks even though it wasn't the easiest thing she has ever had to do in her life. Even though the attacks were hard to block, she knew that Hiei was not even trying. The kitsune hanyou began to walke backwards in attempt to make blocking his attacks easier but it only made it harder.

Reina began to look for a way out of this. As she began to try to get away from the pissed fire apparition, her foot stepped on a good sized rock and she began to fell backwards. The katana dropped out of her hand as a sharp cold metal entered her left arm, filling it with immense pain. Hiei pulled his katana from her arm and she let out a pained scream. Her body landed on the ground with a thud. The jaganshi scoffed and sheathed his katana. That's when Kurama and Kuwabara decided to show up.

"Hey, Shorty, what's going on over here? We just heard a scream. Is Rei okay?" Kuwabara asked as he and Kurama walked into the clearing Reina and Hiei were in. Hiei just scoffed and gave him a very cold look then disappearing to who know where. Reina let out a yelp of pain as she tried to sit up while clutching onto her left arm trying to get her wound to stop bleeding which looked like it wasn't going to stop anytime soon. Kurama and Kuwabara rushed over to her and helped her sit up. Kurama kneeled down beside her to examine her wound.

"Rei, what happened? Did Hiei do this to you?" Kurama asked concernly as he pulled her hand away from her wound to examine it. Reina tried to pull away from him.

"Yeah, Hiei did it but you can really blame him after I was the one who started it by insulting him. OUCH! Don't do that! It fucking hurts you know!" Reina told Kurama as he began to put healing herbs on the wound. Kurama ignored her as he continued to put the herbs on the wound. Kuwabara on the other hand, stood up in anger.

"Damn him! How could he hurt such a pretty girl such as yourself!" Kuwabara said as he tried to look heroic. Reina sweatdropped and gave her a questioning look.

"What about Yukina?"

"Oh, yeah! Well, it doesn't give him a right to hurt you." Kuwabara said as he calmed down. Reina just scoffed and looked away. Kurama lookedd at her for a moment. Her eyes were full of sadness, regret, and anger. Kurama decided to just ignore it for now as he took out some bandages he had in his pocket. (The bandages were for Kuwabara just in case Kurama hurt him during training.) The red head began to dress Reina's wounds as she tried not to flinch under the pain she was in. I mean come on! She just had a sword go through her arm! Of course she would be in a lot of pain. Damn, that would hurt.

"You should be okay now. When we get to the temple, we'll have Yukina heal your wound but until then, this should do." Kurama said as he finished and stood up. Reina looked back at the two and nodded. Kurama offered his left hand to her and she took ahold of it with her right hand. He helped her stand up and the three of them made their way back to Genkai's temple while Hiei watched them from the cover of a nearby tree. He scoffed and then disappeared.
