CHAPTER 7

"Demons!" Kurama exclaimed, glaring at the things flying toward the tower.

"Demon?" Starfire asked, standing behind him and looking up into the sky. "Is that what they are?"

He nodded.

"Did they come from your world?" she asked, putting a hand on his shoulder.

Again he nodded.

"But how did they get here?"

"I don't know," the fox replied, taking his rose wip out of his hair. "But they can't stay." He ran at them and swung his wip. "Rose wip!" His wip hit one but the others were able to avoid it. He fought most of them off but there was too many. As they over ran him a green glowing orb hit the demons and they screamed in agony as they vanished. Kurama stared at the sky, not sure what he'd just seen. What?

"You stay away from my Kurama!" a voice shouted behind him.

Kurama looked over his shoulder. He saw the alien girl flying in the air, her eyes bright green as she threw more green dics at the demons. He stared at her in confusion. What in the world is this?

Starfire flew toward him and threw another star bolt at the demon that was just about to bite Kurama's head off. It disintigrated with a shriek and Kurama turned back to the threat, realizing he'd have to figure out Starfire's powers later. It wasn't just her who got into the fight, Beastboy, Cyborg, and Robin, who had been spying on them come out of their hiding place and joined in the fight. There was no way they were going to let those demons take over their tower. Kurama to say the least was surpirsed at how well these teenagers could fight then realized he wasn't much older than them and could fight just as well at their age. He caught himself admiring Starfire for a moment and resumed defending the titan's tower.

"Another thing," Terra said as an after thought. "I don't know why that demon fell for you but when he realizes what you are he'll think twice about falling in love with you."

'That's not true!" Raven protested, straining against her shackles to get at Terra. "I told him my past and he accepted it! He loves me no matter what I've done!"

"Then why did he leave you?"

A stab. Raven was silent. Terra smirked, proud of herself. "He doesn't love you as much as you think he does," she said rather cockily. "Otherwise he never would have left you."

"He's back now!" Raven shot back. "He came and back he's looking for me."

"I'm sure he is." Terra thought about it a moment. "I think I've seen him once."

Raven stared at her. "Where?" she asked. "Where have you seen him?"

Terra shrugged. "I don't know," she said. "But I think I saw him once. Tell me; does he have black hair that spikes like an inferno?"

Raven nodded.

"Does he wear black and a white scarf?"

Raven nodded again.

"Then I have seen him," Terra mused, turning from her former friend. "He's cute. I wonder if he changes loyalties in relationships easily."

Raven knew what the earth controling girl was getting at and didn't like it. "You stay away from Hiei!" she shouted, her eyes red in anger. "He's my boyfriend! If you go anywhere near him-"

"You'll what?" Terra asked, her voice mocking.

The half demon girl looked away, trying to control her rising temper. Stay away from him, Terra! You have a boyfriend! You don't need mine!

"Oh yeah," Terra said as if she was just remembering something. "You can't do anything while you're stuck down here," she laughed. "I guess I have nothing to worry about then." she turned away. "See ya later, Raven." then she walked away.

The half demon girl didn't bother calling her former friend back. It was obvious something was seriously wrong with Terra. Raven could tell by the look in the girl's eyes and the way she moved. Something didn't seem right. It felt almost as if the girl was being controled by something...

Hiei woke gasping for breath. He'd drempt someone was choking him and was still half asleep as he sat up gasping and coughing. When he was finally more awake he realized no one was there and his breathing slowed down a little. He looked around himself but all he saw were stone walls and a dirt floor, that and he felt a weight on his arms that for some reason wouldn't move from behind his back. What the hell? What did I do to myself? he tugged on his arms and a cluncking, clinking sound met his ears. That's when it hit him that his arms were going to stay where they were and he couldn't do anything about it. Damn it! he thought growling in anger. I let myself walk right into it!

He sat there a moment thinking and taking in where he was. It seemed to be some kind of dark little room, like a dungeon cell or something. The only light seemed to come from a dim illumination of the walls. He tested out his arms again and figured a heavy chain held them behind him and that chain stretched a few feet and connected to a link connected to the wall. It looked rusty and he tried to break it off by jerking his body hard but the link was stronger than it looked and all he got for his trouble were sore wrists and arms. He sat back and let his body relax for a moment as he tried to think of another way to get out of this situation.

I can get out of this, he told himself. I've done it before. Something came to him. But what are they trying to hide anyway? Why are they trying to keep me from finding Raven and getting her out of here? Just what are they doing to her?

The rest of his thoughts were interrupted when he heard the door opening. He looked up at the door as it created a rectangle of light around him. He saw a shadowy figure standing in the door way. This one didn't look like the others but it didn't look like Raven's either, not that she'd even know he was there is she had managed to escape by herself.

"Who are you?" he asked the figure.

The figure stepped toward him and now he could see who it was. A skinny blond girl with dark blue eyes and a smirk on her face. He had no idea who it was.

"Who are you?" he asked again, slightly surprised to see a girl besides Raven down here. "What are you doing here?"

The girl stood over him and folded her arms she studied him a moment. "You are good looking," she comment. "Too good for Raven."

"Raven?" he gasped. "Where is she? Is she down here?"

The girl rolled her eyes. "Of course she's down here," she said, putting her hands on her hips and leaning down toward him. "She about to make a bit contribution."

"A what? What are you talking about?"

The girl just smirked. "On you'll find out," she said, laughing in a low voice.

Hiei didn't like how she'd worded that and he suddenly realized he didn't like this girl very much either. There was soemthing about her that was off and annoying. true she didn't seem as annoying as Starfire but she was annoying him none the less.

"Unless you're here to tell me something important I suggest you leave me be," he growled. "I have no wish to get into a sily conversation."

The girl laughed. "So you do talk like that." she said. "Well then. I just came in here to check you out."

"Check me out?" the statement disgusted him.

"Yeah," she said. "See if you are good enough for Raven." she looked him over again. "Turns out she'd not good enough for you."

Yup. Hiei did not like this girl one bit. "Shut your mouth," he growled. "What do you know about us? Why do you even care? Mind your own business, wench!"

Terra gave him another once over. Maybe she fell for him because of his personaility. he's a real cold one and a bit of a jerk too. What does she even see in him? "Fine," she said stepping away from him. "But I will tell you one thing. The love of your life is just fine for now but..."

"But?"

"Even if you did get out of here and rescue her it will be too late."

"What do you mean by that?"

Terra opened the door and looked back at him. "Her fate is sealed."

A/N

I am having a hard time with personalities lately. Especially Hiei and I can't seem to find any Yu Yu hakusho episodes on Youtube so I can't refresh my memory. I hate that. People's fanfics can only get me so far. I need to see how he acts rather than read it. :bashes head against keyboard:
