Shezka: Trying to keep up with two stories is hard work! Well, this story is coming to and end soon. How many chapters we have left I have no idea. A part of me wishes it will never end, then again it has to end sometime.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Yukina asked her older brother nudging his shoulder with a worried look on her face. Hiei completely ignored her and summoned up the power of his Jagan Eye. With it he searched for the core of the problem, at the news he found he fell to his knees breathing heavily. Hiei gripped the place where his heart beat. It had almost stopped from the shock, he was sure of it.

"Hiede...had a heart attack...while we were gone." Hiei answered in one breath. Yukina gasped and covered her mouth, beginning to cry. Hiei stood back up breathing normally again. He pulled her close and held her in a tight hug. He let his younger sister cry into his shoulder, a few tears gathering up in his eyes as well. Hiei noticed he had been crying a lot lately, but that was okay. This was something to cry over after all.

"Yukina, stay here-" Hiei said, but she instantly cut him off.

"I'm coming with you, Hiei! I lost you once and I don't want to lose you again." Yukina snapped in a very Hiei'ish sort of way. He couldn't help but smirk at her for that. That was to be exspected from her every now and then. After all, they were twins. Even though twins always seemed so different, they always did seem to share the same type of attitude.

"Alright, I might as well carry you to where Uncle Hiede is. Don't worry though, Dad is with him." Hiei replied trying to unwinde his hand from her's. She had it in a death grip so he wouldn't grow running off. He could understand that, but now he couldn't even feel it. Yukina looked down and quickly let go mumbeling an apology.

"Dad?" Yukina asked a few minutes later. She clung to his shoulders as he ran. Hiei was shocked at his own sister's strength. She was just as strong as...him. He nodded his head and he leaped from branch to branch among the many trees of the forest. He mentally slapped himself for letting that slip by. How could he have forgotten? Oh well, she had been bound to find out sooner or later.

"Dad is alive, he's that man named Huroda. Mother is alive to if you must know." Hiei answered still running. That was when he felt Yukina wrap her arms around his neck and he began to choke.

"Yukina...can't...breath!" Hiei gasped and she quickly let go. He heard her gasp at this sudden news.

"What? Mom is alive? Hiei!" Yukina yelled at him.

Hiei growled at her to make her shut up. He wasn't trying to be mean and it hurt him deeply to have done that, but this wasn't the time. He would have to tell her everything as soon as things got cleared up a bit. Yukina went quiet and said nothing more. He heard her sniffing and felt even more bad. How deep a grave could he possibly dig himself? He muttered an apology, but she said it was alright. It didn't matter, and it was understandable. Hiede was ill and he was worried.

At Yomi's castle...

Hina waited outside on the frontsteps of the huge caslte. It was easily three times bigger then Murkro's caslte. She felt her hands shaking and clasped them together. She had sent Huroda out to meet Hiei half-way. Beside her slept a sleeping Lexi, who had just arrived and was exahuasted. Having just played tag with Shura for a very long time. As Hina waited she spotted Hiei coming towards her, running right past the guards. Her eyes widened in shock when she spotted Yukina.

"Hiei, what in the seven-"

"No time mom, where's Uncle Hiede?" Hiei asked hurridely, sweat dripping from his face. He walked no more then two steps and collasped. Hina was horrorified and quickly knelt down next to her son with Yukina.

"What happened?" Hina asked him, easily turning him over. Hiei was breathing, almost gasping for air. He stared up at her and mouthed the word "water". Yukina turned and sprinted into the castle, she was a blue blure as she rushed inside. Just as fast as Hiei himself.

"I must have pushed myself to hard." Hiei answered with a weak smile to his mother. She smiled down kindly back at him while she summoned up an ice ball. Hina put this on his forehead so that he would cool down some.

"I should have known, exactly like your father. If anything happened to me or you or Yukina he would come at top speed. Even if it nearly killed him. Calm down sweety, Hiede is stabilized now. He's in no danger at the moment." Hina said as Hiei tried to get up and go visit his uncle. He sighed and sank back down onto the ground.

Shezka: I'm loving this story so far! You know the drill.
