The raven haired koorime scowled. "You really don't have to bother, you know. It's a waste of time."

The redheaded kitsune rolled his eyes and continued to apply the salve to the poisoned wound. "Save it, Hiei. I know you're fully capable of healing by yourself, but this salve will help with infection and purging the poison out of your wound."

"Hn. Just let me go."

"Nope. Sorry Hiei, but you're staying here until I'm sure your injury will be able to heal successfully."

"I don't see why I have to stay here, or listen to you, for that matter."

Kurama's eyes narrowed as he leaned forward and whispered into Hiei's ear, his voice soft and threatening. "One, because it's for your own good, two, because I'm currently stronger than you, and three, because I said so."

The half-koorime face settled into something that looked somewhere close to a pout.

After a few seconds, Kurama added cheekily, "I also have 53 flavors of ass-kick."

Hiei wasn't sure what to say to that one.
