Chapter Two:
Midnight Meeting
I had arrived home and went to my room.
I had undressed and went to take my shower before putting my pajamas on. When I got back to my room, I looked out my window and saw Hiei.
I went over and opened my widow.
"Hiei? What are you doing here?" I asked smiling at seeing him.
"I wanted to come and see you," Hiei said softly.
"You. Wanted to. See me?" I asked feeling my cheeks grow hot.
"Yeah," Hiei said also blushing.
"You can come inside," I said backing away from my window.
"Thanks," Hiei said climbing inside my window.
Hiei closed the window and all of a sudden I felt a cold draft enter the room.
"What's going on? It just got so cold in here," I said rubbing my arms.
Hehehe," Hiei said laughing evily.
"Hiei?" I asked looking towards him.
"Im not Hiei, Kara." The voice paused saying, "my name is Yakon." He said transforming.
What was transformed in front of me was a green monster with blue hair.
I had tried to back away, but my feet wouldn't move.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"You," Yakon said evily.
--------------------------------------
"Kara, please be safe," Hiei thought moving swiftly to my house.
"Hiei, help me," I thought desperately as tears filled my eyes.
"Knock. Knock." Hiei knocked on my front door.
"Coming," Mom said. "Hiei?"
"Kara's in danger," Hiei said moving fast to my room.
Hiei placed his hand on my bedroom door.
"Ahh!" He screamed when he touched it. "Dammit! I have no choice," Hie said pulling his sword out and slicing my door into peices.
I was knocked out laying over Yakon's shoulders.
"Kara!" Hiei yelled running towards Yakon.
Before he reached us, we had disappeared.
"Kara!" Hiei yelled.
"When you see Kara again, she won't be the innocent girl you know."
"If you harm Kara in any way. I'll rip you to peices," Hiei said leaving my house.
"Come with me to Genkia's temple," Hiei said looking at Mom and Shota. "You'll be safer there."
"Okay," Mom said walking outside with Shota.
--------------------------------------------
"Watch over them, Genkai." Hiei paused then said, "I'm going after Kara."
"Hiei? Do you want us to go with you?" Yusuke asked.
"No. I'll go alone," Hiei said pulling his bandage off of his forehead. "There they are."
When he pulled his bandage off of his forehead. A third eye called a jagan, appeared on his forehead. With that eye opened he could see anything from any distance.
The next instant he left.
"He'll save her. No matter what the cost is to him," Kurama said smiling at the others.
---------------------------------------------------
"Where am I?" I asked waking up. I saw I was chained naked to a bed. "What in the hell is this!"
"You finally woke up Kara," Yakon said walking towards me.
"What do you wnat!" I asked angrily.
"I told you," Yakon said placing his hand on my intimate part. "I want you," he said sliding his fingers inside me.
"Stop it," I said weakly.
"Never, Kara." Yakon said placing his tounge in me.
"Stop it!" I yelled thinking, "help me, Hiei!"
"Leave Kara alone!" Hiei yelled appearing in front of me and kicking Yakon in the stomache.
Yakon flew across the building.
Hiei drew his sword out and swung it towards the chains that held me captive, breaking them.
"Hiei," I said weakly with my eyes filled with tears. "I love you," I said fainting in his arms.
"I love you too, Kara." Hiei said wrapping his cape around me. "Let's go home," Hiei said picking me up then left as fast as he came.
"Damn it!" Yakon said getting up. "I'll get you soon enought you bastard."
----------------------------------------------
"Kara!" Mom said shockingly when she saw me.
I was unconscious in Hiei's arms. The only item of clothing covering me was Hiei's jacket.
"Is Kara okay?" Shota asked looking at Hiei.
"She's fine Shota," Hiei said smiling at Shota.
"I'm glad," Shota said smiling back.
"So am I," Hiei thought.
Hiei took me to a room to lay down. He laid me down still covered with his jacket.
Kurama went to see Hiei.
"What attacked Kara, hiei?" Kurama asked standing in the doorway.
"The creature said it's name was Yakon." Hiei said placing a towel over my forehead. "Kurama," Hiei paused then said smiling at his partner. "She told me."
"She loves you?" Kurama asked then said smiling, "I'm glad. Now you both can live happily together."
"Not yet," Hiei paused then said. "Not until that monster dies."
"Are you going to go after him now?" Kurama asked.
"No." Hiei paused then said, "I'm going to stay with Kara for now. Tomorrow I shall go after him. But tonight I want to stay by Kara's side and protect her," Hiei said brushing his fingers across my cheek.
-------------------------------------------------
(in my dream)
"Where am I?" I asked waking up in a forest. I got up and started walking towards an open feild. When I got there, tears burned my eyes as I saw my family and friends massacered.
Hie was the only person left.
Yakon had him tied between two trees.
"No more, please." I yelled, but not a single sound of my voice came out.
The next thing I knew I was crawling towards Yakon and Hiei.
I was able to find my voice and screamed outloud to Yakon.
"Yakon!" I yelled to get his attention.
Yakon and Hiei both looked towards me.
"Please! I'm begging you! Let Hiei go!"
"Why?" Yakon asked.
"If you let him go. I'll do whatever you want," I said.
"What do you mean?" Yakon asked.
"I will sacrifice myself for them. No matter what the cost is to me," I said as tears filled my eyes.
"They're that important to you?" Yakon asked me.
"They're priceless friends to me. You took them away from me. Don't take my heart away! Please, I'm begging you!"
"You love this demon?" Yakon asked.
"More than you could ever imagine." I said looking at him.
While Yakon was paying attention to me. Hiei was working on getting free.
He was free a few seconds later.
The next second Hiei drew his sword on Yakon and swung it cutting off his head.
Hiei ran towards me and picked me up then left the forest.
----------------------------------------------------
I had woken up from the nightmare and saw Hiei watching me.
I smiled at him as tears filled my eyes.
"I'm glad you're okay," I said wiping my eyes.
"I'm right here Kara. I will always be with you." Hiei paused then said brushing his hand across my cheek. "I love you. And I will never leave you." He said kissing my lips.
My heart began to race as soon as soon as his lips touched mine.
"I love you too. With all of my heart." I said laying my head on his shoulder with my arms around his neck.
Kurama, Genkai, Yusuke, and Kuwabara had watched us silently with smiles on their faces.
Hiei looked behind him and smiled saying, "we have guests."
I looked and saw Yusuke and the others.
I smiled at them.
They returned the smiles.
"Kara," Genkai paused then said. "Starting tonight, my temple will be your home and your family's home."
"Genkai?" I asked.
"You're family and you shall be much safer here. That demon won't be able to get into this temple easily."
"Thank you, Genkai." I said smiling at her.
Genkai smiled and left with Kurama, Yusuke, and Kuwabara.
I looked at Hiei and said, "now Mom and Shota won't have to worry as much over me. And you don't have to worry as much anymore."
Hiei leaned towards my forehead and kissed it, "I'll always worry over you Kara."
I had blushed when Hiei kissed my forehead.
"But you don't have to. If I'm going to live here it should be safe to ease your woriness," I said kiising him on the cheek.
"Okay. I'll try not to worry over you as much," Hiei said brushing his fingers across my cheek.
"Where are Shota and Mom?" I asked.
"We're right here Kara," Mom said in the doorway.
"Did you talk to Genkai?"
"We did and agree with her," Mom said smiling at me.
"I'm glad," I said smiling.
"Kara?" Shota asked looking at me.
"Yeah, Shota?" I asked back.
"How come your cheeks are red?"
"I'm just really happy," I said smiling at him.
"Well, we'll let you sleep now. Goodnight Kara," Mom said.
"Goodnight Mom. Goodnight Shota," I said smiling at them.
Shota ran to me hugged and kissed me. "Goodnight Kara."
"Goodnight," I said kissing his forehead.
Mom closed the door behind her. Leaving Hiei and I alone.
"Do you want me to stay with you tonight?" Hiei asked looking at me.
"Yeah," I said smiling at him. "Maybe if you're here. I won't have another nightmare."
"Tell me what the nightmare was about?" Hiei asked looking at me.
I had told him everything I had remebered.
-------------------------------------------
"That will never happen. Except for the part of me killing him." Hiei said kissing my forehead.
I had smiled at hima as I laid my head down next to him.
"Goodnight, Hiei." I said with my eyes closed.
"Goodnight, Kara." Hiei said kissing my lips.
Hiei wrapped his arms around me and held me close as he fell asleep next to me.
Kurama and the others smiled at seeing us sleep while holding eachother.
------------------------------------------
"I'm glad they're finally together," Kurama said smiling at the others.
"I just hope they'll be safe from that monster," Yuske said looking towards our room.
"They should be. I don't think Yakon will be able to get into this temple," Genkai said.
---------------------------------------------
"I'll get that bastard. That girl is mine one way," Yakon paused making a tight fist breaking the skin. Greenish-blue blood dripped from his hand, "or another."
Yakon left to go and find me.
-----------------------------------------------
"Uh-oh." Kuwabara said looking towards the temple's entrance, "Yakon's here."
Right before Kuwabara even spoke, Hiei sensed Yakon.
He opened his eyes angrily.
"Dammit!" He swore angrily.
I woke up and saw his anger in his eyes. "Hiei? What's wrong?"
"That monster is here," Hiei said brushing his hand across my cheek. "I'm going out there," he said getting up.
I grabbed his hand as he got up.
"Becareful," I said as tears filled my eyes.
"I will," Hiei said kissing my lips.
I had walked outside with him.
Kurama and the others saw us.
"Kara." Kurama paused asking, "what are you doing out here?"
"I didn't want to stay in my room by myself," I said looking at them.
Hiei started walking towards the doors. He looked back towards me then left.
"Please be safe." I thought.
-------------------------------------------------
"Where's the girl?" Yakon demanded.
"You won't get near her," Hiei said taking his bandana and cape off. "You'll have to kill me to get to her."
"Then that's what I'll do," Yakon said pulling a sword out of his hand.
Hiei pulled his sword out.
"I will never let you take the woman I love away from me," Hiei thought while focusing his energy.
--------------------------------------------------
"Hiei?" Kurama asked outload.
"Is he okay Kurama?" I asked looking at him.
"In all the battles I have seen him in," Kurama paused saying while looking at me. "I have never felt him put his whole heart into an attack. Kara, Hiei loves you more than his own life."
My eyes opened wide as I felt tears fill them while I asked. "Do you mean to tell me he'll sacrifice his life to protect me?"
"Yes, Kara." That's exactly what I'm telling you."
"I can't let that happen Kurama. I can't lose hi!" I yelled running towards the door.
"Kara! Come back!" Yukina yelled as I opened the door and ran outside.
As I ran outside I saw Hiei getting stabbed in the chest.
"Noooo!" I screamed as tears fell out of my eyes. I ran towards Hiei as he fell backwards. I had caught him in my arms.
"Kara?" Hiei asked weakly as he reached his hand up to caress my cheek. "It's okay. I'll be fine." Hiei said closing his eyes as he fell asleep on my lap.
"Hiei, please come back to me." I said as one of my tears started glowing.
All of a sudden the tear that was glowing grew bigger and bigger casting a diamond sheild around us.
"Kara! Hiei!" Kurama towards us.
"Kurama!" Mom yelled towards him.
Kurama looked back at her.
"Stay here. They'll be fine. Kara is protecting Hiei while healing his wounds."
"How do you know that?" Kurama asked her.
"Kara has the power of a Celestial Maiden. As do I. Our tears form into diamonds with the powers of healing while protecting the people closest to our hearts. Even if you are not in her diamond sheild it'll still protect you. No matter how far away you are."
"So they'll be okay? Does Yakon have powers to break the sheild?" Yukina asked.
"The power of the sheild depends on the will inside Kara's heart. The stronger her faith and love are, the stronger the sheild. But at the instant she starts to doubt her abilities will work, the weaker the sheild will become." Mom paused then said sadly, "that was how she never got to know her father. When I was pregnant with Shota, Kara had a terrible accident. She was attacked by demons. I couldn't go to her because of being pregnant. So her father went to save her. When he got there he died protecting her. Kara was about to use her powers. Before she could, her father knocked her out. After he did, he used his powers to erase any memory she had of him in her mind and heart." Mom paused then said, "Kara will never remeber who her father is. So she'll never remember any of the times she had with her father."
"She doesn't remeber him, even now?" Yukina asked looking sadly towards me.
"No she doesn't," Mom said.
------------------------------------------------------
"You bitch!" Yakon yelled swinging his sword towards my sheild.
When the sword sturck my barrier, the barrier had started to glow bright white.
"I won't let you beat us Yakon," I said looking him dead int he eyes.
Hiei looked into my eyes and saw the center starting to glow white.
"Kara? What's wrong with your eyes?"
"I'm releasing my powers Hiei." I paused saying, "part of nmy powers is to heal while protecting my loved ones. While the other part is to gain my strength to fight my enemies alon, or to give my strength to my loved ones to help them beat our enemies." I said looking at him.
Little by little, hiei felt his strength returning to him. He stopped bleeding and his wound started healing.
"I can feel my strength return while my wound is healing," Hiei said sitting up in my arms.
"I'm glad," I said smiling at him.
------------------------------------------------
"Kara should be releasing the seal by now. Why is she waiting so long? Hiei's wound should have healed and his strength fully returned to him by now. If she waits any longer she'll lose all of her strength and die," Mom said.
"Kara," Kurama said looking towards me and Hiei.
-----------------------------------------------
"Kara? What's wrong?" Hiei siad seeing my face becoming pail and sweat running down it.
"I'm sorry Hiei. I held the sheild as long as I could," I said fianting.
"Kara," Hiei said catchinmg me in his arms.
The next second the sheild had disappeared.
Yakon swung his sword towards Hiei and I.
Right before he struck us. Hiei moved out of the way just in time.
---------------------------------------------------
"Don't worry Kara. I'll protect you now." Hiei said moving swiftly towards the mountains.
There he would find a waterfall deep into the mountains.
"There is where we can hide," Hiei said finding the waterfall.
He jumped down far enough to be in front of the waterfall.
He jumped underneath the waterfall so fast, we barely got wet.
Hiei laid me down and saw my face still pale. My body was becoming pale also. He had undressed me leaving only my undergarments on.
"I'll use some of my powers to heal you this time, Kara." Hiei said moving his body over mine.
He leaned down and kissed me passionately.
I slowly moved my hands up and around his back.
"That's right my love. Come back to me." Heie said pressing heated kisses down my neck and stepped an inch above my breasts.
Hiei looked up and saw my eyes.
"Am I doing something wrong Kara?" Hiei asked when he saw a little fear in my eyes.
"I'm scared, Hiei." I paused then said, "I don't want to remember what he tried to do to me. I want to give myself to you. But I don't want to to remember him when I do." I said as tears fell out of my eyes.
"It's alright, Kara. We can take this slow." Hiei paused with an anxious look on his face.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"I-," Hiei said then looked away.
I placed my hand on his cheek and turned him towards me.
"Tell me. What's on your mind?" I asked.
"I don't know how to say it," Hiei said looking down.
"To say what?" I asked.
Hiei looked at me and sighed. "I want to know how to make you my-."
"Make me your what?" I asked.
"My wife." Hiei said placing his hand on my cheek.
I felt myself blush as I said, "I beleive you just said it."
"Will you be my wife Kara?" Hiei asked.
"Yes, Hiei. I will be your wife," I said leaning up to kiss him.
Hiei returned the kiss with heated passion.
My own temperature started to rise with each kiss he gave.
Without either of us realizing what we were doing. Hiei placed his hand on my breasts adn started stroking them.
He traced kisses down to them.
He ran his tounge over them and smiled when he heard my intake of breath.
His hand ran over my stomache towards my most treasured area.
"Hiei?" I asked in a gasp.
"Am I doing something wrong Kara?" Hiei asked looking at me.
"My entire body feels like it's on fire," I said looking at him. "Is it because of my love for you? Or is it because you're a fire demon?"
"It could be both," Hiei said kissing my lips. "I won't go further, unless you want me to."
"I want to wait until I'm ready," I said looking at him.
"I understand," Hiei said smiling.
----------------------------------------------------
"Rose whip!" Kurama yelled swinging his rope towards Yakon.
The rope swung around his neck. Greenish-blue blood came out and ripped on Kurama's whip.
"What in the hell!" Kurama yelled when he saw his whip starting to melt.
You guys can't really hurt me. My blood will melt your weapons into nothing." Yakon said smiling evily at him.
"You're wrong Yakon," Mom said looking at him.
"Why is that Karen?" Yakon asked.
"Even if we can't defeat you. There are two people who can destroy you."
"Who Kara? Hiei?" Yakon said laughing. "They're dead. They can't come back. I had obliterated them."
Yusuke had heard enough. "I'm tired of hearing your mouth Yakon. We know them better than you. If they were dead we would know it. They would be better off, if your were dead." He said raising his right hand towards Yakon and pointed his index finger. His spirit energy started gathering into his index finger.
Soon his spirit energy increased so much his energy covered his entire hand.
"Spirit Gun!" Yusuke yelled shooting his energy towards Yakon.
Again Yakon appeared unharmed.
"Damn it!" Yusuke said angrily.
------------------------------------------------------
"Genkai and yukina were watching the others fight against Yakon.
"I hope Kara's alright," Yukina said.
"She should be. Hiei probably used his powers to recover her." Genkai said looking at Yukina.
All of a sudden yukina felt Yakon's presence upon her.
She looked towards him and he smiled evily towards her.
All of a sudden Yukina fainted.
Yakon rushed towards her, grabbed her, then disappeared.
