Chapter Four
Trans Fusion Between Body and Soul
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Daio Enma, the Lord of Hell, knew that something was not right as his most respected kato onna banged her fist on his chamber doors before summoning them to open. She flew in upon her oar, which soon disappeared, causing Botan to fall to the floor. It didn't really hurt, as she had been hovering three feet from the ground, but it stung for a few short moments.

The huge Lord in front of her strummed his fingers on the desk in front of him with anxiety, while the kitsune Lord beside her knelt to assist her to her feet. When all was taken care of, she bowed to her afterlife employer, uncertainty shining in her lilac eyes.

"Yes, Botan?" Enma asked, his voice rumbling in her ears. She looked to the side, 'Lord Enma has always been known for his short fuse...and if the prisoner was that powerful, then he must have been of some importance to my employer and caretaker...hopefully this will play out better than it is in my head...'

She cleared her throat nervously, "Lord Daio, Lord Youko," she stared, bowing at each as she spoke their names, "A convict has escaped from the Reikai Prison. He wields invisible blades of wind, has bloodstained bandages wrapped around his upper torso, " she felt the color flood from her face as both Lords' eyes widened, "and has four arms." she finished meekly, flinching as Enma's lips began to curl up into a snarl.

"Tokai Li has escaped!" the Master of Hell bellowed, startling all residents within the Palace of Reikai. He stood up abruptly, pounding a fist harshly on the desk he had been sitting at just moments ago, cracking the rose colored marble. "Why wasn't he stopped! He was unconscious, how did he escape! Where were the guards!"

"He killed them, my Lord! As he began to pass me in the halls of the prison, he sprang up and pushed his lower arms straight through their backs!" Botan was very pale now, glancing wildly around between each of the Lords, the weight of the situation finally pressing down on her. There was no doubt that this prisoner had been very important.

Botan was always known for her cool-headedness, it was a skill that was required in her profession, "He put one of his Blade Winds to my neck and held me hostage! If it wasn't for Hiei then I'd be-"

"Wait," Kurama cut in, "Jaganshi Hiei? I thought that he was a prisoner?" The deity nodded, "Hiei was in a nearby cell, but he was close enough that his Kuro Hi managed to badly burn the convicts lower, right arm..."

This information surprised both Lords, as the Reikai Prison drastically reduced the ki of all convicts brought within it's expansively numbered hallways. It's power did not take away all of it, as some would become lost souls if they could not keep their body temperatures up or down, but it hid the largest portion of ki within the spirit from the owner. If Hiei could summon his Kuro Hi, no matter how small it had been, then he was most certainly the most powerful spirit within the Prison.

"Botan...summon the army...leave no rock unturned...find the convict!" The large hi demon ordered, pointing toward the doors, pushing them open with his ki. Botan gave a small squeak and materialized her oar. After she sped out the doorway, the large doors swung shut with a terrible force, shaking the entire castle.

Youko Kurama looked worriedly at Daio Enma, who was shaking as he lifted his fist into the air, before bringing it down upon the desk set aflame. The desk collapsed into a weary heap of broken chunks of marble with the force that had been inflicted upon it.

The Master of Hell let out a guttural roar, before picking up a piece of the thing that used to resemble a desk. He put long cracks into the wall after he flung the marble at the wall, "He was two feet away from me! I could have ended Sakura's pain right then! She would have rested in peace!"

Youko Kurama quickly got out his Rose Whip, and took on a fighting stance, lest the larger demon's fury be turned on him. "Enma, forgive me, but there are more important matters that have to be attended to. Jaganshi Hiei...are you positive that he will be able to defeat his father?"

Enma glared at the marble floor, "No...reviving him would also be a problem..." Kurama's eyes narrowed, "What do you mean?"

"We will be able to revive him into his original body, even though we would be violating the peace treaty between the three world by taking his body from a ningen morgue, but to get his body back...he would have to push his ki into a strong enough form that could pass it on into his body...because his soul is incomplete, all of the studies taken have proved that there is only one way to do this..."

"Mating?" Kurama whispered, realization dawning on him. The larger demon nodded, "That is the single factor that the hi koorime may not want to follow through with. Jaganshi is known as a mass murderer, he is very clever and will have specific demands if we ask him to do this...he is well-known...if his revival becomes known, then there will be a reward placed on his head for his past deeds...not to mention that who he mates with would have to be near to him, would have to travel with him because they would be his source of power...putting them in potential danger..."

The red-haired kitsune looked up at his ally, a grim expression firmly set in place, "It may violate the treaty, but it has to be done to protect not only my mate, but the three worlds...is there possibly any being in Reikai that may be strong enough to handle his ki?"

Enma grew silent and stared at the rubble that used to be his desk. "Lord Enma?" Kurama asked the dark-haired hi demon, frowning in concern when Enma still did not reply. The demon finally looked up, a tumult of emotions swirling within his dark, troubled eyes, "Yes...however, I cannot force her to do this..."

"You place trust in her strength, though?" Enma nodded, "She was strong enough to release the Dragon of the Darkness Flame from it's artifact and direct it to a certain source...she directed it to Jaganshi Hiei, in fact..."

"Who is she?" Kurama gently pressed, trying to keep the Lord of Hell calm. Enma looked down once again, and, through clenched teeth, growled, "My most respected kato onna, the azure-haired woman that informed us of Tokai's escape...we know only that she has a large amount of ki that centers on the element hi, and the healing powers that she gained when she became a kato onna..."

Kurama frowned, "You said that she gave the Dragon of the Darkness Flame to Hiei? Then they must have some connection...maybe we will be able to acquire her assistance because of that?" Enma shrugged, which he does not do often, "I will not force her to do anything that she doesn't approve of..."

Both Lords were torn...putting someone through this was morally wrong...but even if all of the armies of the three wolds combined into one, it was unprobable that they would be able to defeat Jaganshi Xian or his army...if Lord Enma's army couldn't find or capture Tokai Li, they stood nearly no chance against his superior.

"I know that this is going to be difficult for Botan and Hiei...but we have to try." Enma sighed and scratched the side of his face with a large, clawed hand. Then, growling through grit teeth, he spoke, "We will discuss it with her...I'll have one of the kato onnas summon Jaganshi Hiei..." Kurama nodded slowly. He knew that this had to be the least desirable situation for Enma to be caught up in, but they had few options left.

Reikai Prison
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Hiei was sitting on the floor of his dark cell when his meditation was interrupted by a kato onna with long, green hair and pointed ears. 'A water nymph...' he thought absently, 'I could turn all of the guards around her into ash, even from within this cell...' A slight smirk accompanied the detailed gore that sprung up from the depths of his mind.

The water nymph looked warily at the unmoving hi demon. She had heard of his misdeeds. He was sentenced to a life in limbo, also known as the Reikai Prison, because he was missing half of his soul and could not be sent to Hell to live out eternity in pain. She knew not how he died, for she used to believe that Jaganshi Hiei could never be killed.

"Guards." she stated, her voice melodic, causing some of Hiei's cell block partners to stir from within their boring damnation. Most water nymphs had melodic voices, so they could charm ningen sailors and and drown them within the water. 'Deceitful maidens..' Hiei recalled them being called once.

The oni guards unlocked the cell doors, sliding them slowly open. "Raise your arms." they ordered in gruff, but stupid voices. It was quite rare to find an oni that could have a mind of it's own, in general, they were mostly dull, and required a slightly smarter leader. Hiei did as he was told, knowing that there was nothing that they could actually do to harm a half soul. Ancient shackles were then placed on his wrists. They were rusted on the outside, and cold to the touch, which meant that they had not been used in many years.

The hi koorime could feel a large amount of ki radiating from the artifacts that bound him. To test a theory, he tried to use his Kuro Hi. Nothing happened, in fact, the most he could now do with his hands was twitch his left index finger slightly. 'Interesting...' Hiei thought, 'I can no longer use any ki, these artifacts must be very powerful...if they are as effective as I believe them to be, then a lower class demon would most likely be paralyzed from the waist up...'

"Alright, don't try anything, Lord Daio has demanded your presence." the green-eyed water nymph spoke, her gaze hardening on the hi demon. Hiei smirked and walked, a guard at either elbow, out of his cell. He glanced back at the closing bars of his eternal boredom, bidding it good riddance, because as soon as the shackles had been removed, noone would be spared any of his wrath. He would find a way to posses a body, so he could, once again, wreak havoc upon the three worlds.

The kato onna walked behind him, another artifact pointed at his back. He opened what was left of his Jagan, only to have searing pain tear through his forehead. His greatest asset had been destroyed, and his smirk fell from his face as he remembered, once again, the damage his father had caused.

Jeers from Hiei's fellow inmates followed him as he walked down the hall, his nearly see through index finger twitching, but doing little else. 'These dimwits are becoming annoying...' he thought, contemplating on whether to use his Dragon of the Darkness Flame or not, 'If I used that much power, I would only trap myself in this bothersome place...though I'm positive that it would at least release me from my bonds...'

Some of the prisoners were ningens, ones that, in their own world would be considered "strong" or "elite". They were now reduced to confused, delusional idiots that were vastly overpowered by every other occupant of the prison. These prisoners were few, but were abused physically, sexually, and mentally as though they were the cause for every prisoner's sentence. Many of them had been to a ningen prison before, but, while they were still alive, couldn't fathom how horrible Reikai Prison truly was.

The halls were damp, dirty, and cold, the bars closed in, quite literally, on their occupants at times, swallowing them whole, and the guards were corrupt, taking bribes or listening to threats and releasing or relocating the prisoners which convinced them to wrong. The prison was a living thing that sapped your ki, and it appeared to have acquired a taste for Hiei's own, as it didn't appear to want him to leave with the kato onna and the oni guards.

A barred door from an empty cell swung suddenly open, catching the guard on Hiei's left in the face. It then proceeded to mold into a steely arm, before reaching out to grab the hi demon. Hiei, however, was much faster than Daio Enma's monstrous prison, and kicked the hand in it's palm, sending it backward into it's own gaping mouth. The mouth of this creature used to be the door of another cell, but after devouring a part of it's own body, the beast rattled the cell bars deafeningly and retreated back into it's normal state.

The water nymph still watched the kuro-haired demon warily, but caught her breath five feet further back from him. The attack left Hiei feeling slightly refreshed, so he cracked his neck and nodded for their walk to resume. 'Putting a prison into the form of a monster is brilliant, I'll concede to that, I also admire how sneakily he gets rid of long-time prisoners...' he thought as another inmate was absorbed by the bars of his cell.

Near the exit a bright light shined, and the group appeared in front of a huge black beast. The three-headed dog snapped at Hiei, but it's attack was halted by a strange yellow whistle that the kato onna blew. Cerberus then backed off, allowing Hiei, the water nymph still behind him and an oni guard at either elbow, to proceed within the Palace.

Cerberus has been a long time guardian to the gates of Hell, as long a time as Enma has been ruling, because Cerberus has been his pet before royalty. In the belly of the monster, lies the many cells and halls of the Reikai Prison, an intense ki coming from within the mutant dog, holding it firmly in place. Portals, an instrument used commonly among kato onnas, were used to teleport and shrink all visitors. It was almost ironic that limbo would be so close to the gates of Hell, seeing as a sentence to Reikai Prison was a damnation of it's own.

Hiei was stopped in front of two very large doors. The water nymph knocked loudly, before the doors sprang open, almost on their own accord. A very large hi demon stood beside a crimson haired kitsune, they were both critically analyzing the black-clad demon, which was beginning to annoy him to the highest of intensities.

Hiei was escorted into the chamber by the guards, who left right after bringing him to the room's center. Hiei also noticed that the artifacts that bound him were not taken away, which meant that these demons weren't as powerful as they felt ki-wise, or that there was a weaker being inside the room as well.

"Jaganshi Hiei. You have been sentenced to an eternity in the Reikai Prison because you broke terms of your parole. We would be willing to shorten your sentence if you were to assist us in the capture of a few criminals." Enma's voice rumbled through the chambers, a dark glare finding it's way into his eyes.

Hiei's own eyes widened an unnoticeable fraction, before he smoothly replied, "By how much will my stay be shortened?" Enma's glare became fiercer, so the redhead cut in, "I am Lord Youko Kurama, your sentence will be, if you choose to accept our conditions, three hundred millenniums to this date."

Hiei scoffed, "Then I choose no to accept your conditions. If I do this, I am to be released from my sentence, given a replica of my old body, and my weapons will be replaced." At his words Enma growled, "You insolent convict! I'll hear of no such agreement! Your sentence will be a million eternities if you dare to cross me again, Jaganshi!"

The said demon looked calmly into the face of the Master of Hell, "You have heard what I want, I have no need to repeat myself. There isn't another prisoner as strong as I, and your army takes too long to move from one place to another. This mission is far too important, and the situation far too fragile to be placed into the hands of amateurs. If it wasn't, you would not have bothered summoning me to your chambers. You accept my conditions or I'll be going back to my cell."

Hiei smirked as he noticed both demons glance at each other, Kurama was the first to speak, "After completion of this mission, should you choose to accept it, you will be under maximum surveillance, and your parole will exist for one millennium. Your weapons will be returned, seeing as you will be engaging in strenuous battles during the mission. There are terms that need to be accepted by both parties concerning the placement of your half-soul into your past body."

"Both parties?" Hiei asked. Lord Daio glared at him, but stepped to the side so Hiei could glimpse the "other party". It was the kato onna that had caught him in the Reikai Palace and sentenced on the parole that caused his eternal boredom, the one that ferried his soul to Reikai, and the lilac eyed woman he had rescued from Tokai Li in the prison.

"Have you found my soul yet?" he asked nonchalantly, taking secretive glances toward the other male demons in the room, trying to decipher what she had to do with anything. Botan nodded slowly, "That is why you will need to take this mission, one of the fugitives that we will be pursuing has the other half of your soul."

"What do you mean 'we'?" he asked, his tone holding an icy tip to it. He found that he was able to move his arm numbly now, 'I must be regaining my ki...'. "Botan will be accompanying you because she has the most ki out of all of our healing onnas. She also possesses the power of hi, though it's not as powerful as your own, it's still quite strong. We also require her assistance to fuse your half-soul with your body. I will be accompanying you as well." Lord Youko explained. Hiei didn't relish the thought of an onna being on such a dangerous mission, but if her assistance was required, then he felt it best not to argue the point.

"How is she involved in the transfusion between my body and soul?" Enma stepped forward, "This is why we require the 'agreement of both parties'...Botan, Jaganshi Hiei...we require you both to agree to Hiei's marking Botan..."

At his statement, both Hiei and Botan's eyes widened. Hiei was the first to convey his disapproval, "There is no way in Hell that I am going to mark her! Taking mates is for the weak, she will only get in the way!" His body temperature increased drastically with every word until Botan had to back away slightly. Her sudden movement alerted her to the notion that Enma had declared.

"He is not going to mark me! It's against everything that kato onnas stand for, and I won't have such a stubborn and temperamental hi demon mark me!" Hiei growled at her description of him, "You haven't seen 'temperamental'! If I weren't bound by these shackles I would show you just how 'temperamental' I can be!"

"I would like to see you try! Even with the shackles off, the most you could do is singe the hair on my head because of my natural resistance to fire!" Botan shouted back, secretly startling Hiei. Noon had ever talked back to him that fiercely, but that held no value to him at the moment, "That's it!" he shouted angrily, and would have moved toward her so he could do anything to prove her wrong, but was stopped by a bellow from Daio Enma.

"Enough!" he roared, causing kato onnas on the opposite side of the palace to jump in surprise, "That is enough! You two have spent my patience! The fate of the three worlds rests on your shoulders! You both are hundreds of years old, yet you're acting like toddlers that don't get their way! If this mission is not completed, and soon, it will cause the undoing of everything! If you will not accept the mission, Jaganshi, then you will be taken back to your cell to await the coming apocalypse!"

Hiei glared hard at the larger demon, "Will my conditions be met?" Kurama nodded, "Then I accept." Botan's mouth dropped open, "How can you just say that! This is the rest of my life that you're throwing away!" Hiei shrugged, "With the bond, I'll be forced to protect you, so at least you know that I won't be able to kill you."

Botan glared at him, only to receive a much harsher glare from the receiver of hers. After moments of mental debate, Botan sighed heavily, "For the three worlds, I accept, but I will not have him do anything but mark me!"

"The mere thought of mating with you brings bile up my throat, baka kato onna!"

"Good!" she shouted back, after which she stood at the opposite side of the room from him, as far away as possible. Enma and Kurama looked at each other, hoping that this would work. "Bring in the body of Jaganshi Hiei!" Enma ordered to the oni guards outside.

The doors opened once again, and a table was rolled into the room. The guards placed it near Enma, then departed. "Is that my body?" Hiei asked. Enma nodded and removed the blanket which covered the corpse. On the body, which was clad only in the black pants that Hiei was wearing when he was murdered, you could see the destroyed Jagan and the other scars that symbolized both his and Jesus Christ's death.

Botan let out a small squeak, and turned to face the wall. "Botan, once the process is complete, you will have to heal the wounds on Hiei's body."

"Will my Jagan be restored?" the half-soul asked as he looked upon the body that he had previously inhabited. "Not completely," Kurama explained, "You will, once again, be able to use it, but it's power will be limited, and will drain your ki if not used carefully."

Hiei mulled everything over for a few moments before he looked up at the two Lords, "I need to speak with and perform the action alone with the onna." Enma was about to retort, but was stopped by a simple glance from Kurama. The dark eyed demon glared at his long-time friend, but said nothing.

"We will take our leave, but we will be watching all that happens with a portal. We will not intrude on your conversation, but when the marking and healing are complete, we will enter the room again." Kurama stated before exiting the room. Enma glared at Hiei, "I'll be going as well, but if I see even the smallest of suggestions that you're going to become violent, I will perform trans location between your blood and a vat of acid while sustaining just enough of your consciousness in a state of unlife so that you'd be able to experience the impossible pain of it before being driven insane as a fully aware, yet dead corpse rotting in your cold cell for beyond eternity. Do you understand me, convict?"

Kurama looked curiously at the Master of Hell. He knew that Botan was the top kato onna in Reikai, but he did not realize the real reason for Enma's obvious protectiveness. Fact was, Enma had been Botan's caretaker since before she could remember, and was more protective of her than he was over anything else.

Hiei nodded with a smirk on his face, and waited for the demon to leave the room. When the doors were firmly shut, he faced Botan once again, totally calm. "Hn. I am marking you only for the sake of the transfusion. Do not believe that this will give you any power on this mission. Should you feel anything, you are not to act upon it, do you understand?"

Botan nodded, "I would never act upon such a ludicrous notion of pursuing any kind of relation with you." Hiei nodded as well, "Then we are in agreement. You will be my mate, I will be yours. We belong to each other, and if you are around any males, I may not be able to control myself. So, just as a prior warning, keep watch on those around you, it just might save a few lives."

"You wouldn't actually kill anyone, would you?" Botan asked fearfully. Hiei looked thoughtful for a moment, "Hn. I have killed thousands, one more won't make much of a difference. I cannot guarantee that the bond will not control me, seeing as you have a decent amount of ki that may draw us together anyway."

Botan gulped and walked towards the hi demon, "Is this going to hurt?" she asked halfway to him. "I have to bite into the junction between your neck and shoulder, of course it will hurt." Botan sighed, she had reached the table. Hiei walked around the table and motioned for her to sit on the edge of it. She did so reluctantly.

He tilted her head to the left, cradling it in his right hand, the left still cuffed next to it, and searched for the area where he had to mark. He could already feel her blood rushing through her veins as he swept strands of azure hair away from the junction. He felt her heartbeat quicken as he moved closer, inevitably breathing on her skin.

He opened his mouth and whispered, as an afterthought, "You may want to hold on to the table." before plunging his fangs into the junction. She screamed and he felt her clutch to, rather than the table, his body. He felt a slight burn on his wrists, and peered at them from the corner of his eye, finding that the shackles had disappeared after he bit the junction. This allowed him to let his left hand wander so it rested at her waist.

He tasted her blood in his mouth, and found it to be oddly sweet, not at all unappealing. She whimpered as he sucked on the wound, filling his mouth with more of her amazingly delicious blood. Her whimpers got louder and finally broke through his stupor. He gently licked at the wound, lapping up any blood that still leaked out, and, although subconsciously, trying to comfort the whimpering onna.

Suddenly, he wanted her to taste her blood, but the only way to do it was to share what was left in his mouth, as there was no more coming from the wound he had cauterized with his natural body heat. He saw stray tears that had forced their way out from under her eyelids, and he felt a surge of guilt. He had caused that, he had made her cry.

When the rest of the blood had drained down his throat, though the sweet aftertaste remained, Hiei regained self control, and realized exactly what he had begun to feel, 'Why is this affecting me so deeply? I have no affections for the onna, this bond is making me think like a lovesick fool! Why should I care if she is hurt or not!' He phased to the opposite table, feeling cold seep into his palms as they disappeared from off of his new mate's skin. He was also disgusted at the wave of regret at having to remove his hands in the first place.

Botan was also experiencing the strain that the bond was putting on her emotions. The disappointment that swept through her when he moved away from her brought a throbbing into her chest. After she realized exactly what feelings were shooting through her, she nearly gagged.

Hiei looked at his hands, they were no longer semi-transparent, but were solid. He felt a sharp pang in his side when he moved his arm, only to look down and find a gaping hole in my left side that was bleeding more profusely per moment. "Onna." he called, causing her to turn around on the now empty table. His body had been summoned during the marking, completing the transfusion.

"Heal my wounds before I bleed to death, again." he bluntly ordered. Botan swung around to the table so she was facing him, her hands nearing the worst of his wounds. Hiei could feel the white magic flowing within his body, repairing tissue, easing pain, and sewing up the wound entirely. As the newly-marked Botan moved on to heal his Jagan, he began to feel tranquil, her healing powers becoming almost like a drug to the hi koorime.

As if the magic wasn't enough, as she pushed more of it into his wounds her fingers gently caressed the skin around the wounds, sending small waves of feeling that Hiei couldn't describe. As he felt her move on to his left wrist, he caught himself staring at her pink lips. He quickly turned his head, disgusted with himself, once again.

When her fingers grazed the symbol of the Dragon of the Darkness Flame on his right arm, her touch lingered slightly on the head of the dragon, causing Hiei to look curiously at her out of the corner of his eye. She quickly began healing his wound once she felt him staring at her as she touched the intricate tattoo.

When the time came to heal the wounds on his ankles, she motioned for him to sit on the table, as she had done earlier. As he situated himself on the cold steel, she found herself staring at his face, admiring it in her sub conscience. Her gaze unpurposely memorizing every scar and curve.

Soon, though, Hiei looked up, only to have crimson meet lilac as their stares connected. He felt a strange flutter in his heart, something that he had never felt before. The unknown experience was enough to startle the kuro haired demon into anger, "Get on with it already!" he snarled, making Botan jump slightly in surprise.

At first Botan felt sadness at the fact that Hiei had shouted at her, but it quickly turned into frustration. In retaliation, she pressed her fingers a little harder than necessary on the wounds, also pushing her magic into the hole agonizingly slow, allowing Hiei to feel the pain she put on to his ankles, causing him to hiss lowly and growl at her.

"Done!" the blue haired deity announced, almost happily. Truthfully, she felt a strange abandonment because she was no longer touching her new mate, but she pushed those feelings aside. "An 'arigatou' would be nice." she stated, glaring at the standing demon.

"Hn." he grunted, glaring back even more fiercely. Their staring battle was abruptly brought to an end as the large doors opened. Both demon Lords strode into the room, looking between the bonded pair. "Everything went well, I presume?" Kurama asked. Botan nodded, while Hiei merely cracked his neck and glared out the window.

Enma approached Hiei, a cold stare nearly boring a hole into the wall behind the hi koorime. "I do not entrust the care of Botan to you lightly, Jaganshi. If I find that any harm whatsoever has come to her, then I will fulfill my promise of ultimate torture and pain unto you." With that he turned back towards Kurama, "No going back now, you'll leave at dawn. I'll have Ayame get everything prepared for your journey, for now you will stay in the palace," he shot another glare at Hiei, who made no move to acknowledge the fact he was being pointedly stared at, "Where I can keep an eye on you all."

Lord Youko Kurama, Botan, and Hiei all nodded, and were shortly escorted out of the chambers, leaving a doubt-filled Daio Enma behind.

LET THE COMPETITION BEGIN!

Acid...heh heh...the whole "perform trans location between your blood and a vat of acid" thing was used from an online comic series that I recently have become obsessed with. The comic is widely known among Final Fantasy fans, due to it's lovable eight-bit characters and plot line.

If you can tell me the title of the comic series and it's creator in a review, then I will either dedicate a chapter to you, create a character (most likely an antagonist) in your image and to your liking, or give you a bowl of virtual chili! I will only create a character for the first person who names the comic series AND it's creator in a review, but everyone else who does so afterwards will be included in a mass dedication and receive chili!

I think this is my longest chapter so far. Oh well, at least now you know why I was elaborating on the habits of demon marking and mating in the first chapter! I apologize, but I love it when Hiei and Botan end up becoming bonded in fanfictions, and I couldn't pass up the chance to write one of my own!

So, what do you think of Reikai Prison? I put it into the belly of Cerberus, yes, because that will be a little side plot in future chapters. I seem to have alot of side plots, don't I?

I hope you enjoyed this installment of "Evasion of Normalcy", please review!
