It was Nighttime and the black skies were so cloudy that the usually silver moon cannot penetrate the clouds and shine silver glimmers of light into the demon realm, Makai. It was blizzarding heavily and the grounds were covered with thick white snow. Deep in the woods of Koorime, the ice realm, a little girl with an outer appearance of no more than nine years old could be seen playing in the snow, unaffected by the frigidness. Her hair shone a turqiouse color loosely tied up with a spikey red ribbon. An Ice Maiden. She wore an aqua colored kimono to match up with her hair and her face showed pure innocence mixed with compassion and even prehaps even naiveness as she froliced in the snow with woodland animals, umaware of the figures around her that she cannot see.
A very attractive young Fire youkai child, no older in outer appearance than the little Ice Maiden was watching her through his bright crimson eyes from the highest branch on the pine tree. He had black hair that was spiked upwards with a white gleam in it. He wore a long black cloak around him with black pants and a light blue boy's tanktop underneath. The cloak was a little wet because the boy used his youki to melt the snow that landed on him. He gazed at the little girl with concern and caring. Strange for a fire appartition who usually felt campassion for no one. He stayed on the branch for a few hours before her giggles penetrated through his mind and brought him flashbacks from over centuries ago (Dont forget, Youkai age slower than human)
FLASHBACK
The boy remembered back when he was a newborn. For some reason, he remembered that the moon was blood red on that day. He was wrapped in a blanket and held lovingly in his mother's arms along with his twin sister. His mother gazed at him silently with her gentle and kind face and pondered silently. Finally she reached her desicion with a smile and ticked him on the nose. " I'm going to name you Hiei. Promise me that you'll take care of you sister, Yukina." Hiei giggled and smiled up at his mother. That was the first and last time Hiei ever smiled again for as soon as he was named, he remembered seeing her mother's horrified look as the door was being knocked down.
" They have come for you," his mother said to him with tears silently streaming down her face. "You are a fire child, unlike us ice maidens. They also fear your Jagan eye which symbolizes evil. But dont worry, I'll never let them have you. You are my precious son." Those were the last words Hiei ever heard his mother speak.
He could not remember much afterwards. He only had flashes of memories. Her mother running closer to the cliff to protect him. He remmebered how the people like his mother finally caught up and pulled him from his mother's grasped. He never cried however. He stared up at the woman who now held him with so much hate, he could feel fire engulfing him with blazing anger even though he was merely a newborn. The woman, however looked determinly though with fear in her eyes and whispered., "If you survive, take care of her, your sister, Yukina. With that, she threw him off the cliff. He remembered falling and hearing her mother break down in tears. He remmebered landing in the water below and seeing a red jewel falling down from above towards him as if seeking him.He floated on the water, unable to move and could only stare upwards as the Jagan eye showed him how his mother's head got chopped by the other ice maidens as a punishment for protecting him and fed to pond fish.
Hiei could not move for years, and stayed floating in the water watching Koorime, his old home from where he was banished. He watched Yukina getting bullied by other maidens for her cursed heiratage and abnormal life. She had not parents and lived by herself even though she only had a physical appearance of three years old.
As soon as Hiei grew old enough to walk, he untied himself from his bondage and tested his power and skills by stealing a katana from a nearby lord and leaping into the air and onto Koorime in the middle of the night. That night, he took joys by slaughtering all the maidens that partook of his mother's demise. The only maidens who killed his mother that he spared was the woman who whisperd to him to take care of Yukina. He was covered in blood by dawn and silently left the masquerade so no one would know he was there. However many of the maidens knew it was he who had killed everybody and whispered ,"The curse has come upon us after all. The Forbidden child has returned" Yukina always knew she had a brother but she never knew who he was. She vowed to search for him but she didnt know how, and he never planned to tell her. Now he just follows her and kill all the demons that wish to harm her iwth out her notice. Thats how it always has been and always will be.
END OF FLASHBACK
Hiei was woken up with a start. He tightened his hold of his mother's red tear gem, her last gift to him, which he fished from the river, long ago. He heard the sound of screaming and saw Yukina being dragged forcefully by muscular men who seemed to be bodyguards of a very conspicuous (sp?) man in a suit. Hiei felt his blood boiling and unsheathed his katana to kill the men. However, the men noticed him and shot guns at him. He looked down at his arm which was shot several times and saw neddles sticking out. Tranquilizers. The boss walked up to Hiei guarded by more muscular guards. Hiei watched through a blurry gaze as he heard the boss say to him, "Do you want this girl to stay alive? I can not kill her if you don't want me to but you have to listen to my deal..."
That was when Hiei fell uncoucious and the men took him to the bosses lair. Unknoweth to Hiei, after he fell uncouncious, the cloudy skies parted to reveal a blood red moon.
