This chapter isn't as long as the other two, but has a point. The next one will be more interesting as many different things happen. Stay tuned!
"Here you go, Yusuke-sama." Inazuma said, opening a large door for the detective.
It was a vast room with a king-size, four poster bed on the wall the door was. There was two 10 ft tall windows/doors that lead to a balcony. A battle scene painting adorned the wall opposite the bed. Weapons covered the wall to the right of the door. Kuwabara gazed at it wide-eyed.
"I hope my room is this big." he mummbles.
"Yes...it is. All the rooms in this wing have a wrap-around balcony so they are all connected. Kazuma-san's is next to Yusuke-sama's on the right and Kurama-san's is to the left. There are three guest rooms across the hall and Koenma-sama will stay in which one of those he prefers. Hiei-san's room is up one floor, as is Yomi-sama's. If you need me, I am down the hall, the large ash door on the left. Have a nice rest. Breakfest is served promptly one hour after the sunrise."
She bowed deeply to them and turned to leave but was stopped by Yusuke.
"May I ask you a few questions?"
"But of course, Yusuke-sama."
"Why do you keep calling me that?"
"Why, you are to become king and you are also Raizen's descendant. He would like it if I treated you with respect."
"Did you address him as sama?"
"Well...no...he did not like that."
"Then please don't address me as such also. It gets kind of annoying."
"I apologize." she nodded her head at him.
"Why do you seem so familiar? Have you been to Ningenkai?"
"Yes, on many occasions, doing errands for Enma-sama and Koenma-sama. You might have seen me and I probably stood out."
"Well..yeah..that seems..."
"I must be heading off now. Sleep well everyone."
She bowed deeply and met all their eyes. Her own blue orbs held no emotion in them. They were curious about it. She hurried out and closed the door behind her. Not seeing where she was going, she bumped into Hiei and would have fallen to the floor had he not caught her. She found herself pressed against his chest. Most girls would be blushing by now, but not her. Her face remained calm.
"I apologize Hiei-sama. I did not see you there or else I would not have been so clumsy."
"How many times must I ask you to just call me Hiei?"
"I am sorry." She bowed low.
He cupped her chin and pulled her up to meet his gaze.
"May I have a word?"
"But of course. Let us go to my room."
She led him down the hall to her room. It was similar to Yusuke's in design and size, yet the painting on her wall was the full length and height of the wall. It was of a large cliff in Makai that Hiei visted many times. The water of a large Makai ocean glittered in the painting. Two figures stood looking out at the water. One he could see was Raizen, but the other's face was not visible. Hiei saw this particular piece of art many times and has yet to figure out who the strange person IN Raizen's arms was...obviously a woman...but who? Inazuma saw her comrade studying her painting.
"What is it?" she asked, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Who is the woman in the painting?"
"Someone who was very close to him, a person who misses him a lot."
He looked into her eyes and saw the flicker of sadness and love in them.
'That must be her with him. Were they...? It would make sense. She speaks admirably of him and the only emotion I see on her face is when she thinks of Raizen. How I wish she would look at me with such affection? What? Did I just think that?'
He gazed to his side to see Inazuma walking to her wardrobe. She peeled off her cloak and slid off her shirt.
'That girl has no modesty.' he thought, blushing and staring.
Plucking a simple yukata from her wardrobe, she slid it on and buttoned it up part way to where the tops of her breasts were visible. Hiei's eyes bore into her body and thoughts flickered in his mind. Turning, she met his gaze.
"What is it Hiei?"
Shaking his head of the bad thoughts, he looked away. She made her way over to him and stroaked his cheek. An almost unnoticeable shutter racked his body as he saw her rather large breasts tease him.
"Nothing." he responded, swatting her hand away.
"Why do you not see me Hiei?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why do not notice me?"
"I do."
"Not like that." she rubbed her forehead into his neck. "Why do you not see me?"
"But.."
"But what?"
"Raizen."
She gazed up at him.
"What about him?"
"That is you in the picture with him. That is you sitting in his lap watching the sunrise."
"Of course it is."
"Then we can't."
"Hiei?"
"What?"
She lightly giggled. A smile grazed her face. He was in awe. She looked absolutely beautiful when she smiled.
"It was not like that. Raizen was not my lover. That would be very strange. In the picture, it was a brotherly gesture. Him and I were very close, but not like that."
"Ohh." he felt foolish.
Looking up at her, he rushed out of her room, completely forgetting why he wanted to talk to her in the first place. She gazed at where he last stood and sighed. Buttoning up her yukata, she laided down in bed and immediatly fell asleep.
