Chapter Thirteen: "Tyerva's Wish"

Kenji jumped, looking around into the shadowed abyss. He then looked to Tyerva, who was near them, her hands twitching.

Meanwhile, Yusuke twitched, "If she kills them…"

"She'll get into huge trouble with the underworld…" Kurama finished.

"That's why I'm going to stop her." Said a somewhat nasally voice.

"Koenma?" Yusuke shouted into the area.

A baby like person soon appeared in front of them, holding a pacifier in his mouth. Holding up a piece sign with his fingers, "The one and only. Now I'm going to stop her." He then vanished.

In the Shadow Realm, Tyerva took a step forward to the boys. "Who wants to die first?" She asked, rather evil like.

Kenji backed away with the other boys, all of them trying to act somewhat tough.

"Tyerva! Stop!" Soon appeared Koenma's voice.

Tyerva blinked, as she looked around. Her ears twitching, as they tried to locate the voice.

Soon Koenma appeared, looking at her. "Tyerva, you mustn't hurt them." He panted, still somewhat exhausted from the trip to find them of course.

Tyerva watched him, her ears focused upon Koenma. Her tail snapping at the air, leaving a more visible line of energy. "Yeah? And who's going to stop me?" She snapped, somewhat smirking.

Koenma sighed, "Tyerva, I had to explain to Hiei. I'm Koenma, ruler of the underworld. If you so kill a human, you'd have to be put under arrest. Yusuke would do it…" He explained.

Tyerva glared at him, "…Fine…" She muttered, believing him for now. She then snapped her head towards the cowering boys. "…Tell anyone of me, and I will hunt you down. And trust me…" She smirked evilly, "I don't need to kill for fun." She stated.

Kenji twitched, "O-Okay, Okay… J-Just let us go." He whined. The other two boys nodded as well, yet said nothing.

Tyerva sighed, "Fine." She growled at Koenma, basically blaming him for ruining her fun. Not at all believing that Yusuke'd take her in now. Sighing though, she then let down the Shadow Realm, and the boys ran out of the weight center.

Koenma watched Tyerva, as he hovered next to her. She shook her body out, and then walked over to her sister and the others. "Who's the baby?" She asked, gesturing to Koenma.

Yusuke, and Kuwabara started laughing. "We're not the only one's that say that to him!"

Tyerva watched them, blinking slowly. "…Answer." She merely said. Her voice somewhat cold, since she just was ridden of her fun, she was in a bad like mood.

Yusuke sighed, and looked to her. "Chill. Look, he is Koenma, ruler of the underworld and whatnot." He explained.

Tyerva looked to Koenma, who smirked. Then just vanished. She growled to where he was, "…He took my fun." She merely stated.

Hiei then spoke, "If he didn't interfere, then Yusuke here would've had to take you in." He merely stated.

Kurama, Yusuke, and everyone else looked to him. Kurama was next to speak, "Hiei, giving advice?" He smiled lightly.

Hiei scoffed, "…I just don't want her to get into trouble, before the tournament."

"Hiei, we don't know if she has to join…" Kurama added.

"Wouldn't hurt to make sure." Hiei snapped.

"Okay, Okay…"

Tyerva sighed, "… Fine." She folded her arms, looking around.

Atir looked to her, and walked over to her. "Please calm down mistress… I wouldn't want you to get into any trouble…" He muttered to her.

Tyerva blinked, as she looked to Atir. She smiled lightly, and nodded. "Alright Atir…" She sighed, as she calmed down somewhat.

Kurama and Hiei watched Atir, basically wondering why Tyerva listened to him, more then she did them.

Kyerga watched Atir, watching the area. Tyerva's tail swayed now, the line was still there, yet it was dimmer. Since her tail wasn't snapping the air. Her ears though remained twitching, as she listened for any odd sounds in the area.

Sighing, Yusuke looked to everyone, "Shall we head back to the hotel then…?" He asked.

Tyerva and Kyerga nodded at the same time, "Sure." They muttered, walking together, as Atir followed Tyerva. They both began walking out of the Rec. Center.

The boys began following them, Kuwabara next to Yusuke, behind the sisters. Then Hiei, and Kurama bringing up the back. Both of them watching Atir, "…Hiei, can you hear me?" Kurama asked, basically talking with telepathy.

Hiei looked to Kurama, "Yeah…?" He merely answered.

"…I don't know, but I don't trust that… Atir very well…"
"I agree…"

"What should we do?"

"…Let's just see what happens…" Hiei answered back, as he turned his head back to Atir, watching him.

Of course Atir was walking next to Tyerva, yet on his face was a different expression, like… he was planning something, as he watched Tyerva out of the corner of his eye.

Hiei glared at this, yet did and said nothing to Kurama or the others.

Soon they got back to the hotel, as everyone was walking into the room. Hiei went to Tyerva, "May I speak to you for a moment?" He asked her, somewhat quietly.

Tyerva blinked, and then nodded. "Sure."
Kyerga looked at her, as Tyerva smiled to her. "Don't' worry, I'll be in, in a moment, take Atir." She said, as Atir nodded going over to Kyerga.

When everyone was in the room, for the exception of Hiei, and Tyerva. Hiei took Tyerva's wrist, and began walking her down the row of rooms. "…Tyerva… I need to talk to you about Atir…" He finally said at the end of the row, near the stairs.

Tyerva blinked, as she looked up at him. Hiei of course being somewhat taller then she was. "What about him?" She asked tilting her head.

"…Kurama and I don't trust him really… and why… just why do you listen to him more then you do us?"

Tyerva twitched, as she listened to him. Her ears lowered, as she looked away from Hiei. Now watching the pool, where a good number of kids were playing. "…See Hiei… That's something even I don't know… Just for some reason… I listen to him more… like… a voice in my head is telling me to do so…" She murmured.

Hiei sighed, as he watched her, and then went closer to her. "…Tyerva… What kind of voice…?" He asked, rather seriously.

Tyerva twitched, as she looked to him again. Lowering her body somewhat, as if she was inferior… then again in her mind she was to Hiei. "…J-Just someone telling me to do as he-he says… H-He disguises his voice…" She murmured fearfully.

Hiei blinked, watching her movements. He sighed, "Shh…" He wrapped his arms around her frame, holding her close to his own body. Her head laid upon his chest. "…Tyerva, I know its' scary for someone to be telling you something in you head… just you need to ignore that…" He explained softly, as if trying to calm her down.

Yet before another word was spoken, they both felt hands upon their heads. "Say nothing." Came Karasu's voice, as he watched him.

Hiei twitched, looking at him, more or less glaring.

Tyerva whimpered, as she had a somewhat death grip to Hiei now.
