Sorry for the extremely long hold, but yah, I'm really lazy and report cards are coming p, but other then that yah, there is something else but I'm partly over it…I think. Blah, well here's the long awaited chapter! Also uh it might be weird since yah I don't remember how many characters I used…and short chapter too.
A Dark Moon and a Red Rose
Chapter 9: Kidnapped (I bet you can't guess what's going to happen p)
As the smoke started to fill the area the ten (ten right?) hero's started getting into a defensive position. There was never anything good coming in a package with mysterious smoke. Kagome and Sango were back to back, so were Kurama and Hiei. Koenma was hiding behind the two demons not wanting to fight… Botan was seeking refuge with Kagome and Sango however as Kawabara stood in front of Yukina protecting her from any upcoming danger. Yusuke did the same, nearly shoving Keiko behind him. A dark cackling filled the air, at first Kagome and Sango didn't recognize it, but it was there…and it was familiar, too familiar and much too dark. "I've let you have your peace," the voice continued to cackle. Kagome and Sango finally remembered who it was… "Now let my rein of terror be reborn!" A terrifying scream filled the air and the smoke thickened.
"Shield your selves, the smoke is the residue of miasma!" warned Kurama who had sensed the danger first, even before the ever aware Hiei. Sango pulled out her mask and Kagome followed suit, but what was the scream, what was that horrible shriek. That was when Hiei heard the small plink of crystals clashing with the hard ground. Hiei snapped his head around, that sound; it was too familiar it was a sound that was never meant to be heard.
Hiei shouted, he was worried, he was showing much emotion, this couldn't be…"Yukina!" shouted Hiei into the mystified miasma, he was frightened, and yes he was scared.
"Hiei! Kazuma!" a frantic voice replied. It was that sweet voice, but filled with the everlasting terror. It was the voice, the voice that held the crystal tears. "Help me!" Hiei was once again frantic, this was bad, and sadly Sango and Kagome didn't know just how bad. But Kurama knew, Yusuke knew, and even the "fearless" Kawabara knew… this is called a worse case situation…
"My first prize is won; I'll come back for more." There was a slight pounding on the concrete floor, the sound of hooves, and then the smoke started to diminish. In the sky, the hero's saw, two flying horses, the mystical Pegasus, but they were black, and there was also a carriage. But with the keen and trained eye you could see it, the glimmer of turquoise strands of hair and small pearls falling, falling from the carriage. Falling from the sky, swirling with magic, swirling with the fear of the ice maiden…Yukina.
A loud slam radiated on the crust of the earth, Hiei was down on his knees. Not yet was he crying but nor was he emotionless anymore. His sister, his prized little sister, was gone. Kawabara was in a daze, how did Naraku get by him, how did he let the evil monster get his dearest, his love. (That sounded weird…) Sango seemed worried she was staring intently at Hiei, not really at the remaining bump that was still on his head, but into his eyes. In Sango's eyes were pure sympathy, nothing else out of it, nothing more, nothing much less. Kagome was a tad bit confused, she looked to Keiko who was being supported by Yusuke, this was bad and everyone knew that now.
Kurama however was different from the rest; he stared at Kagome and her confused look and then looked to his best friend. Nothing abnormal were in his eyes, they were like they always were, calculating. And guess what he knew what was to happen next, a look of sympathy flashed across his face for a second as he glance at Kawabara, boy was he in for it. Just as predicted, there was a large gust of wind and before anyone could react Hiei had Kawabara up by the neck. "You didn't protect her," growled Hiei.
Kawabara remained silent, he did not want to pressure Hiei into anymore rage, even he knew that much. "You didn't save her, how could a strong presence like that get by you undetected!" Hiei continued to snap at his supposed friend.
"Calm down Hiei!" shouted Kurama, trying his best to calm his best friend, oh why did he not stop it before when he knew what was to happen. Kagome and Sango tried to help Kurama as well as they tried to cool, the over heated Hiei.
"Get out of my way, he didn't protect her. He let Naraku, the bastard, get her!" growled Hiei clutching Kawabara's neck even tighter then before. That was when a dark red liquidly substance started seeping through Hiei's fingers.
"Don't kill him," shouted Yusuke, now also helping Kurama, Kagome and Sango release the trapped Kawabara.
"I'll kill him, if I must," snapped Hiei throwing Sango off him off him. She screamed as she flew back and clashed with the concrete ground.
"Sango!" cried Kagome but accidentally loosened her grip on Hiei, he threw her off him as well. Kurama's head snapped back to watch Kagome hit the ground and roll slightly before staying still.
"Kagome," muttered Kurama worriedly, he turned back to his best friend, "stop this nonsense Hiei. Where has your logic gone! Naraku wants you to react like this, he wants you to kill us off with anger so he need not dirty his own hands. Hiei's hands slightly loosened but were still around Kawabara's neck. Kagome groaned in the back ground followed by Sango.
"My head…" mumbled Sango before realizing where she was. "Stop it Hiei, stop it please." Hiei's grip loosened even more, that voice, that sad voice…
"I feel so obedient," thought Hiei as he dropped Kawabara, "so stupidly humanly obedient, I'm listening to a fire onna." Hiei kept his cool, and walked to Sango, casually he lifted her up gently to her feet.
"I'm sorry," muttered Hiei so that supposedly only Sango could hear.
"WHAT!" shouted Yusuke, Botan, Koenma, Kagome, Keiko and even Kurama, "did he, did Hiei just say…?" Hiei sighed, he shouldn't have said it. Kawabara was in a light daze, boy was he happy to be alive.
"We better save Yukina," mumbled Hiei, watching Sango's smile unleash.
"Agreed!" chirped Kagome and winced, her arm slightly hurt but the rest was just slightly bruised and scratched, not much there.
"Let me see your arm," demanded Kurama, Kagome nodded and smiled, they were about to search for Yukina and destroy Naraku, once and for all.
"Ouch!" squealed Kagome jerking her arm back, well at least after Kurama some how completes the nearly impossible task of healing Kagome's arm faster with the combination of his plants and her miko powers.
