Yay! Second Chapter is finnally up!

Kurama sighed as he stared at his celing. He was lying on his bed, and was trying to sleep. His head hurt from the thoughts whizzing around in his mind. Hiei, Hiei, Hiei. Why was that all he thought about?

He had not spoken with Hiei in a whole year. Why? Because the demon was in a coma. Hiei had been in a coma for an entire year. An entire year of worrying and loneliness had taken a great toll on Kurama.

He sighed again, rolling over to his side, shutting his eyes. His last sleepy thoughts were of the fight. The fight that had sent Hiei into a coma, and Kurama into a state of constant anxiety.

Flashback

"Baka ningen!" Hiei yelled at Kuwabara. The whole team was trying to bring down a rogue demon.

This one was different from the ones that they had ever fought before. This one could confuse people and demons alike with his voice. He had a beautiful baritone voice, and would sing ballad after ballad, until the song was drilled into your brain and you started to sing the words to yourself. Then he would pounce on you, unexpectedly. It was rather handy for him, but very annoying for his attackers.

Hiei couldn't think straight anymore. The music was filling his brain and he had to fight the urge to sing along. His glowing, purple jagan eye was blazing from his forehead, clearing his mind as often as it could.

He could sense Yusuke start to waver in his defense, so Hiei yelled at him mentally, snapping him awake.

"Ow! Why'd ya have to go and do that, Hiei? Show a little sympathy." Yusuke rubbed his temples and started to fire up his spirit gun.

Kurama had his rose whip out and was cracking out and the rocks that the demon was throwing at him, with apparent ease. His red hair was tangled in places, giving him a very wild look.

Hiei frowned, and then turned to Kuwabara, who had started to mumble to himself in rhythm to the music. He bonked the oaf on the head, and he stopped.

Hiei had his katana drawn when a huge rock flew towards him. He jumped out the way and sliced it in half powerfully, sending pebbles and little stones everywhere. He was getting tired of this demon.

Right then, Yusuke's spirit gun barreled past him. It hit the big, singing demon square in the chest, knocking him off his feet.

Hiei flew up to him, slicing through the air with his katana, strongly and purposefully. The sword promptly ended the singing, and silence ensued.

He withdrew his sword and plunged it into the dirt, to clean the blade. Kurama came up to him, smiling. Kuwabara stopped walking and shook his head rigorously. He seemed to have snapped out of his reverie. Yusuke was smirking.

Hiei stuck his katana back in it's sheathe and stooped to pick up something shining at his feet. Kurama noticed it and his face froze. Kuwabara was walking up to them, grinning.

Hiei didn't have time to cover his face when he touched the round object, because it exploded in his face. There was bright light, and then a scream. There was a huge flash of spirit energy that ripped through the air, carrying the sound of Hiei's horrified scream.

Kurama was thrown back, as were the rest of them. The flash of light was gone, and there was complete and utter silence. Nothing moved.

Kurama stood and looked around him. He stared at Hiei's lifeless form. He bent and turned him over, very carefully. Hiei's chest was rising and falling slowly, and his pulse was erratic. He scooped up the small fie demon and rushed over to where the others were.

"Yusuke, Kuwabara, I'm going to bring Hiei to Koenmas. I think he has a hospital ward somewhere in his castle. You can come, when you are ready." He rushed out, now panicking. Hiei's heart-beat had quickened in his arms, so he turned towards the rekai, and started running. Please let him live, please let him live..."

End flashback

Yay! Did you like it? I think that is fairly long, and explains what happened in pretty good detail. Ch. 3 should be up soon. Please review! Your opinions on my work are welcomed.
