Chapter seven...(Yuyu gang is not mine and thank you to the ones who reviewed my story...and I hope all of you like it. Pixie)
When he left it was pretty much silent. I rolled over and looked at Ebony, "What is it with men? I mean they'll try to tell you what you want to hear...but soon you catch them in their own trap of lies, and then they think it'll all be okay, right. Some of us girls aren't idiots...or dunces who just are here." I said to my cat. She started to doze off when another knock came to my door. "Yes?" I asked. "Hn, can I come in?" Hiei no doubt by the attitude.
"Yeah come on in." I stated sitting up. He came in and shut the door behind him. "You said you know everything about us!" I nodded at this new expression that was on his face, "Yeah I had a folder on you guys telling me everything from your past to your weaknesses." I stated. He nodded. "Don't you dare tell Yukina!" He ordered. "That you're her brother? That's something personal, and I don't tell things like that to others." He nodded seeming to ease up a little bit.
"Is that it?" I asked him calmly. "SO tell me don't you think what you thought about Shadow was a little mean?" I shook my head, "No it pretty much hit home. That's the way he is." Hiei just nodded, "Go to sleep you have to train the girls tomorrow." I nodded, "Yes I do...good night Hiei." He turned with out a word and walked out. I laid back down, and stared at the ceiling. I couldn't sleep so I walked on to my balcony. There was a nice light wind that played with my hair. I let my wings out, and jumped off the balcony.As I began to fly my mind became clear. So this is what it's like to fly! I thought after a little bit. I flew into the woods, and landed on a branch. And that's where I slept for the night.
The next morning I woke up to the bright sun in my eyes. I shook my head and looked around to make sure this was real. "So I didn't go back...damn! They're goin' to be pissed!" I mumbled to myself. My wings were still out from the night before so I jumped off the branch and flew back. I walked in the back door and found everyone talking about where I could be. Shadow looked up and saw me.
Shadow walked up to me and hugged me to him, "Where in the hell have you been?" He asked. "Just a little night flight...and I fell asleep in the woods." He pulled me to arms length. "Don't do that again you had me worried." I rolled my eyes as I pulled away from him, "That's exactly why I said you're more of a Father right there!" He shrugged and went back and sat down. "So you didn't run away and plan how to kill us slowly one by one...good." I looked at Kuwabara and sighed, "I should've planned on how to kill you though!" I then walked to my room to get changed.
I walked in my room, and got dressed in a white tank top and a pair of black boyish camo pants. I walked over to my door and opened it just to find Kurama there. I blushed because I had almost ran into him. "SO I see you're getting ready to train...no need to tell you that's what were doin' then." I looked away from him, and gave a hn. "Are you okay Phoenix?" Kurama asked me very kindly. "I'm fine...just let me pass."
He moved out of my way and followed me to the living room. "Do I have to have some one make sure I'm getting dressed?" I asked Shadow rudely. "He was coming to tell you to get ready for training." I shrugged, and stopped to face Shadow...but Kurama bumped into me slightly. And with everything in my past that happened I freaked out thinking someone was here for me. That's something I would never admit it though.
I turned throwing a punch, but I stopped it in Kurama's face. "I wouldn't touch me around my blind side I might kill you next time." I whispered. "Sorry that I scared you." I shook my head smirking, "I wasn't scared...just aware." I then walked out the back door calling for Paine and Paige. The others followed us to where we've been training. "You know that we do have an arena, right?" Kuwabara said stupidly. "Yes I know but I like training here...it brings more of your animal side out." I stated sitting Indian style as the girls did as well.
"What are you doin'...aren't you goin' to train?" Kuwabara asked. "Pay no attention to the idiot and close your eyes." I told the girls closing my eyes. "Yes Ma'am." The girls said politely.
"Hey!" I heard Kuwabara as he stomped over to me. I rolled backwards and stood keeping my eyes shut. "To bad I can't train a fool...if you were smarter you would know what they are doing." I stated calmly. "How did you know I was about to hit you?"
I smirked, "It was obvious the way you were stomping that my remark hit and hit hard. I've mediated for a very long time and it makes you focus on your other senses besides sight...like hearing. From what I can gather at the moment you haven't understood a word that has came out of my mouth." I then opened my eyes to see him standing there stupidly. "What?" He asked scratching his head. I shook my head, "Someone take him away...or my bad side will be out. And right now that side should stay controlled." I stated sitting back down where I had been.
I closed my eyes, "I can sense stress in all of you...you should try this." I stated. I then directed my unsightly attention to the girls, "Let the animal in you out. Control it, but still let it enhance your senses." I could feel them do what I told them to. Extreme power...no wonder this Amaya wants them...but I know some reasons for her to destroy two worlds. I thought cruelly.
"Harvest the energy...yet let it soar...it should bring something special to you." I stated smirking. I waited a moment then heard the bone in them grow. I opened my eyes to see them in pain. The others were up and standing by Paine and Paige's sides. "Back away from them!" I screamed at the guys. "No way...can you not see what's happening!" Yusuke screamed at me.
I stood silently my wings out, and raised my self off the ground just hovering. "Step away from them...they are growing their wings!" I screeched as fire took over my body! Kurama and Hiei both nodded, and backed from the girls. The others stood there looking stupid. "Back away now!" I'm being too protective...why? I shouldn't even care for these girls. They backed away slowly. I then stood back on the ground, and walked over to the girls.
"Let your animal revile it's self." I said whispering to them. "It hurts!" Paige screamed. "Of course it does...but if you don't let it pass then it will hurt worse. And you have to go through a little pain to gain something!" I stated harshly. I looked at Paine and watched as she listened unlike her sister who soon screamed out. I turned to see the bakas try not to run to their sides.
"I've got it," I then looked back at Paige, "Listen if it helps I had to go through this in a way...just I was out of it...I know I screamed out. If that doesn't help I can tell you something that hurts a lot worse then this." I said slyly. This is a way for them all to understand my past, I thought coldly. "What can hurt worse then this?" She asked holding in a scream that got caught in her throat. "Try an iron five foot bullwhip being taken to your back...along with another to your front. Your legs being broken, and then thrown into a cell where every day for the next month you were kicked while you lie on the floor unable to move."
"Damn that had to hurt." I looked over at Paine who already had her wings out. Black silky looking wings came from her back, but all the wings went from black to red at the ends. "Good job Paine...Paige there will always be pain in something you do...for those who don't think love is weak...you can always get a broken heart.
Either way from a fight, or because your love found someone else there will always be pain." I stated grimly. I heard a growl come from her. "It's not weak! Emotions are not weak!" She stood as wings came out her back, and a black and blue flame took over her body turning her hair silver instead of the white she had.
Her eyes became black and silver mingling together, but never really mixing; she had red silky looking wings that turned black at the end of a feather. I looked back over at Paine to see her in her demon form. She had the same color of hair but it had more of a jewel quality. Her eyes were black and ruby red and her skin was almost silver; where her sister's was a every pale peach.
"Well that worked...your demon forms are out." I stated making them look at each other then look down at them selves. "How did you know she would react that way?" Kurama asked. "She was one of the people who told me I needed a soul...and to tell me emotions are what make the world go round. God help us all if she turns out to be on a soulless plain." I said smirking. The girls were laughing and seemed to like this form.
I hovered in the air, "And now to learn how to fly." I stated. The girls looked up at me smiling. "Oh yeah this is gonna be fun." Paine said smiling evilly. "You're always up for a challenge!" Paige said rolling her eyes. "As you are for flirting dear sister." Paige went red. "Girls...think of the wind for a second can you?" They nodded. "Feel it...become one with it." They closed their eyes.
Five minutes later they were in the air. They did tricks, and happily scared Kuwabara. Yusuke had a laughing fit. I flow high up into the sky, and left them for a little bit. I went back to my tree.
I needed to mediate, but that wasn't going to happen. "So the Hell Phoenix is here." I looked down to see about ten demons. "Yeah what's it to ya?" I stood on my branch. "We have a score to settle with you! You killed Lord Yuki and left us with no place to go!" I knew that voice. Blaze appeared from behind the one I had been looking at.
"Sorry can't help it...he was using me, and you know how much I hate that!" Blaze looked up at me evilly, "And you know how things were." I looked at him weird. "What in the hell are you talking about?" He smirked, "I've always worked to be his favorite, but you were easily! You got paid more...you got the better missions...I wanted to kill the Urishame team, but you got it. Well I switched sides now Phoenix. Amaya pays better." I cocked my head to one side slightly, "You would work against me of course. What's you're pay?" I asked him grinning.
"I get paid enough to make up for what you got, and I get the one thing I want." I raise an eyebrow at that. "And what is it that you want?" I asked him crossing my arms over my chest. "You are that dense aren't you! I want you." I was shocked, "As a mate?" He smiled, "Of course who doesn't want a woman who can take care of her self while you're gone?" I sighed, "Fuck off Blaze...I need no man even if I do have a soul now!" I covered my mouth when that came out.
"You have a soul now...that's makes it even better! You can cry for me now then." I glared at him as my blood boiled out of anger! "Blaze you are worse then Yuki was...I hope nothing more then to show you how stupid and dense you are!" I said as fire came to one hand. My other arm felt cold meaning the ice needed to be released for once. I held out both of my hands, and freed what was needed to kill all of them. But when I got down there I relieved Blaze wasn't there. "Damn he got a way!" I whispered to my self.
I ran back to the palace to see the girls still in the air playing around. "Down to Earth now...we really have to be getting to more important things now!" I screamed at them coldly. "Show us your demon form Phoenix!" Paige said grinning. "Get down here now!" I screamed worried Blaze may still be around.
Kurama came over to me, "What's the matter Phoenix?" I looked over at him. "Nothing we just need to begin training for real now!" I said. "Something's bothering you what is it?" I sighed. I was a better liar when I didn't have a soul. "There was somewhat of an ambush in the woods. I killed all of them but one, Blaze." I whispered so the others wouldn't hear.
"Oh..." "Don't tell anyone. No one needs to worry." He nodded, and stayed there with me as the girls landed. "Come on Phoenix show us your demon form." I sighed and switched forms easily. I had long white hair with black and garnet streaks. One of my eyes were gold and the other silver, and my skin was silver. My nails were naturally black. My lips on the other hand were blue.
"Awesome." I looked at them like they were crazy and quickly changed back. "I hate it...okay girls I want you to test your selves with the guys." I stated. "But you're our trainer." Paige said sadly. "Yes I know but you need to know more then just your powers...more like fighting skills, and I know the guys can train you with that...while I go find something." I said.
They nodded, and everyone but Kurama left with them. "Can I help?" I nodded. "He can't just leave like that. Blaze is a second hand spy who now works for Amaya." Kurama nodded. "I just don't want the girls to freak out...I don't need more of my past coming out today." He understood and smiled, "Some things should be forgotten." I nodded, "Come on...we need to find him before anything happens." I turned and ran back into the woods.
I showed Kurama where it happened. "You work to hard...you shouldn't try to kill them but get answers from them." I glared at him, "Don't start on me...they were here to take me and the girls!" I smelt something. "Do you smell that?" Kurama nodded calmly. I ran off to find out where the smell came from.
Kurama behind me I saw Blaze standing there with a demon attacking him. "What the hell? Who's that?" I asked Kurama. This demon was green and had many eyes all over his body. Kurama frowned, "That would be Hiei in his demon form." I nodded, and darted over. Hiei glanced towards me...I punched him for a good reason.
(Honestly I did.) I looked at Blaze, "You can never have me!" I screamed changing forms. "Why not...did you entrust someone else with your heart?" He asked me as we began to circle each other. "You would never understand fire fox!" I screamed holding out my hands, "Ice diamonds!" I screamed as well ice daggers came out of my hand and killed Blaze.
I walked over to his dead body and spit on him. "No good second hand spy!" I turned to see Hiei standing behind me. He punched me in my face sending me flying into a tree. My back made contact and made the tree fall over. I stood up shakily, "Sorry had an old score to settle there rude ass...there's no talking to you in either form!" I screamed spiting out blood.
"I would shut up onna." I glared at him as he changed his form, "The only baka I see here is you...if you hadn't realized we were behind you then you're just...the worst baka I've seen besides Kuwabara! You act like I tried to kill you when I only wanted to kill the one who caught me. Even so who cares?" I asked him cruelly.
"I will never understand why onnas can be such bakas!" I shrugged, "Same here for men human or demon...though your all the same to me." I then turned to walk away from them to find Hiei right there glaring at me. "You do know if you do that all the time your face could freeze that way? Well it might be an improvement for you at least we'll all know your real feeling about life." I changed back to my normal form.
"Do you always have a nice remark, or snappy come backs?" He asked me coldly. "Do you always try to get on my nerves?" I asked him snidely. He gave me an hn and went on his way. "I'll take that as a yes...midget." I smirked turning from him, and walking towards Kurama. "What did you call me?" I just continued. I soon started to smile evilly at the way this turned out. "Only I would know how it feels to be small...that is besides you. But I don't care if I'm small...though there was a saying I was taught once big things come in small packages'." I stated.
I reached Kurama and turned to see a fuming Hiei. "It was a complement the statement was! If you can't take that then you aren't worth my time you fuming little ball of fire!" I screamed. He conjured a huge fireball and threw it at me. I took the hit which knocked me about twenty feet.
I opened my eyes to see Hiei standing over me, "I guess I'm worth your time if I can hit you." I shrugged, "I took it...you didn't hit me because you could. You see I'm a better assassin then you are thief." He glared at me. I smirked and pulled us into the shadows to fight him without interruptions. I knew Kurama was worried for his friend, but I wasn't going to kill Hiei just teach him a lesson.
"I'm not scared of the dark onna." I smirked standing behind of him. "Good that would really say your weak if you were...I'm guessing the shadows are where we belong." I said as he turned to face me. I pointed my index finger up, and had a small fire come to show him I was standing there. "This is how I live...alone in the shadows." I smiled changing to my demon form, and turning out the light.
"You hide your demon form...why?" Hiei asked looking me in the eyes, "Because I just do...my other form looks better then this form." I said frowning. "Not from what I hear..." I was confused there. I shook my head, and iced him...he couldn't move so I let us out of the shadows. "I win." I said softly, and walked away changing form. I heard Kurama whisper to Hiei.
Kurama soon caught up to me. "Why do you hate your demon form?" He asked me kindly. "I just do." I stated looking a head of me. "And if I said I like it?"
"I would say you're mad." I looked at him. "Well I guess I'm mad then." I rolled my eyes, and began to walk a little faster. "What's the matter?" He asked matching my speed. "I don't want to talk about it."
"I do...I..." I looked at him confused. "What?"
"Can I take you to dinner tonight?" My eyes went wide. "You can't possibly mean that...you can't." I said looking away from him. "Well I do...will you please come with me to dinner tonight..." I stopped and looked at him like he was crazy.
"I don't know if you've noticed, but I just got a soul yesterday...I'm just now learning to make good friends. I'm finally somewhat free...though I still have a boss. I have to train two girls, and you're asking me to go on a date with you!" He smiled and nodded, "I would like it if you would accept." I sighed. My blood was boiling for no reason. "I can't not tonight...I want to train alone later."
He nodded lowering his eyes to his feet. "Will tomorrow work?" I asked him smirking. He suddenly looked at me surprised, "Of course." He then kissed me on the cheek making me blush. I stood there for a minute dazed...I then turned and ran off to my room. I sat down on my bed to think why I just did that. What did I just do? I barely know guy...what did I get myself into? God shot me now...well I guess I'll need a dress...wait...I ain't goin' shopping. There was a knock on the door. I opened it to see...
Pixie: Well hope you liked it. (Looks in the living room to see Hiei glaring at me.) What did I do now?
Hiei: Baka onna...you had Phoenix punch me...I never just let that go...I didn't get to kill her.
Pixie: YOu can't kill Phoenix she's a main character baka.
Hiei: hn ( and walks outside with my dog.)
Pixie: I hope he likes a hyper dog...she can't stay still for one minute out there. Oh well just review the story or Hiei might just end up killing me. (doesn't like the idea. shrugges and continues to type stories.)
