Okay, I wanted to make another chapter. Don't playa hate on meh…go playa hate on somebody else! YO!

Chapter Two:

Rock Lee smiled at a butterfly that had passed him. Today was going to be a great day! He just knew it! He did a quick turn around the corner to see a bus arriving. A girl with black long hair walked off the end of the vehicle. Lee grinned. He was right. Today just might be his lucky day. He knew that girl.

"Etsu-Chan!" He called, running toward her. The girl looked back at him and smiled forcefully. At this, he knew something was wrong. He stopped a short distance in front of her to see her face was tear-stained and she was trying desperately not to cry. Lee's expression changed at the sight. He never remembered seeing Etsu like this before. Not the Etsu he knew. "What's wrong, Etsu-Cha-…?" He started but, the girl's face was flowing with tears now, and he couldn't bear to continue. He bit his lip and carefully put his arms around her. In return, the girl leant against him and sobbed. Lee looked at the sky. What had caused such a happy girl to become so sad?

Hiei was a mess. He knew it as he hopped around from roof to roof searching with his demon eyes. Etsu had left days ago and he and his friends had been looking day and night. Still, they had no idea where she could've gone. With no background on her before she moved to Genkai's temple, the chance of finding her was slim. And the fact that Hiei had been banned to use his jagan in the human world didn't help much. The fire-demon hadn't eaten or slept since she went away. He'd barely even spoken to anyone. He knew why she'd left. It was all his doing. Now, Yukina was sad. Along with everyone else in the temple. He was miserable. All of it was his fault. If she got hurt or raped he would never forgive himself. He moved faster than before at the thought. Where was his woman?

"I'm sorry for that, Lee-kun. I didn't mean to break down in front of you…" You told your friend, once you were inside of his house. Lee turned away from the soup he was making to give you his nice-guy pose.

"It is alright, Etsu-Chan. I am happy that you've returned to Kohona. My special recipe should make you feel better." You smiled back. Lee's face constantly had a way of making you feel better. He sat down next to you at the table and put a bowl of soup in front of you both. "Eat up!" You nodded and picked up your spoon.

"Thank you, Lee-kun…" He just smiled tenderly at you. He looked down at his own bowl but, didn't pick up his spoon.

"Etsu-Chan…" He began, "Whenever you decide to tell me what's happened to make you so unhappy…I'll be there for you." He peeked at you from the corner of his eye to see you push your fingers together nervously.

"The one...that I love...was not fateful to me…So, I left…" you stated, partially telling the truth. Lee eyed you wearily.

"Etsu-Chan…is…that all that happened?" You looked up at him with big sad eyes, looking like you were going to cry again. Lee waved his hands in front of him. "You don't have to tell me right now!! I know…umm…L-Let's talk about something else!" You nodded and waited for him to continue. He looked around the room uneasily but, then found something to discuss. "Gaara-Sama became the Kazekage while you were gone. He's really changed. Naruto-kun helped him to be a better person. Oh! And everyone has missed you so much!" Remembering Gaara of the desert, you cringed. Could that really be true? You had both finished by the time he was done talking and you yawned, smiling at Lee. "Oh, are you tired? Please, sleep here in the guest room tonight. My room is right next to that one if you need anything during the night. I have to go out and inform our friends about your return! Good bye!" He went out the door, not giving you much of a choice in the matter of wanting to stay. You didn't care, though. You liked being around Lee. You wondered what your friends at the temple were doing…

Yukina wiped away her tears. She'd been crying a lot lately. No one could blame her. Etsu looked up to her as a big sister figure and was always trying to do things right to impress her. Now, Yukina felt the sting of loneliness. Her little sister was gone and no one seemed to know where she'd gone to. Everyone seemed to lose their cheer when the little girl ran away. But, Yukina knew more than what the others had known.

Flashback

Etsu was holding her bleeding arm while Yukina healed it. The girl had said that she'd fallen but, she knew it was a lie. Yukina pressed on until the girl finally told her the truth. Hiei. Hiei had did that to her in a fit of anger.

"Please don't tell anyone, Nee-Chan!" she'd begged, "I don't want Hiei to get into trouble! Besides, he didn't mean to do this!" Her arm was healed now. Yukina sighed, giving in to Etsu's chibi eyes.

"Alright, I promise not to tell anyone if you don't get hit anymore."

Present Day

Yukina heard a noise from Etsu's room and got up. She opened the door slowly and saw a very surprised Hiei sitting on the bed. She saw him put something in his pocket and walked in to look at him better.

"Hiei?" She began, "Do know the reason why Etsu-Chan could've left?" Hiei just avoided her gaze, not saying anything. "You spent more time with her that anyone would like to admit, Hiei…I was sure you would know." This time he looked up at her.

"She left because of me. Hn, that girl is being childish. Always giving into her feelings…" He scoffed. Yukina frowned, beginning to see why Etsu had left. "And you? Do you have any idea where she wanted to go?" Yukina paused, remembering something Etsu had shown her.

"See? This was taken before I left. It's all of my friends in Kohona. There's Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke. Hiei reminded me of him when we first met. And Rock Lee was the nicest person! He always gave me gifts to let me know that he cared. Neji was a lot like Sasuke. Tenten and Ino were nice too. Here's Choji and Shikamaru. There's Hinata's team. Kiba was born in a family with alot of dogs. His little puppy Akamaru was cute too. Shino liked bugs. He never once said two words to me. Oh, and Hinata was so shy! Always blushing but, I knew she meant well." Explained a very excited Etsu, holding the picture. Yukina had never seen her so happy.

"They all sound so nice. Maybe you'll see them all again." Etsu hugged her and giggled. For some reason she only told Yukina about her past.

"Yes, she once showed me a picture of some people from her old village. I think she called it Kohona." She told the fire-demon. He stood up.

"The village of shinobi fools." He glared at nothing. Etsu had left him for those fools? Now, he was getting angry. "I'm leaving." He was about to jump out of the window when Yukina stopped him.

"Wait…" He looked at her. "Please, Etsu-Chan might not want to see you right now…and she won't want to come back…" Hiei's eyes widened in realization. Yukina had known. She'd known all along. He sat on the window-sill.

"Then, what am I supposed to do?!" He snapped. Yukina flinched and Hiei forced control over himself. "Hn…"

"Take me." Hiei rose to protest but, Yukina continued. "Etsu-Chan won't be convinced with anyone else. She'd want me. She'd want her big sister told be there for her." Hiei sighed silently and looked away from her.

"Alright, fine." He got up at walked out of the room to tell the others.

You opened your room door in the middle of the night. You were thirsty and wanted a drink of water. But, Lee's house looked different than it did when the sun was up. It looked more…intimidating, now. You tip-toed around to the kitchen and poured yourself some water. Then, you froze. Something had made a soft whisper around the house. You gulped and shivered in fright. Then, you finished the water and decided to go back to your room as soon as humanly possible. But, when you turned around a familiar face stared back at you. Hiei. He was there, inside Lee's house…wanting you to come back with him. His hand was at your throat, now. He was choking you! You tried to pull away, kicking and gurgling as he held you up.

"Did you think I'd let you get away so easily? You foolish little girl…" He tossed you across the kitchen and into the table. You yelped and tried to crawl away. Where was Lee?! You didn't have time to think about it when Hiei stepped in front of you. "Now, now…don't get so impatient. Just come back so everything can be fine again." You shook your head and noticed that tears were falling freely from you eyes. "Aw…don't cry. You'll be back soon enough. Even if I have to bring your burnt corpse back." You screamed and backed away into a wall. You closed your eyes and shook your head violently.

"No…No…NO!" You opened your eyes to see that you were back in your bed. And there was Lee, beside you. He had come in when you screamed. "Lee?" He touched your hand while looking at you worriedly.

"Etsu-Chan…please, tell me what's wrong. You were shaking and crying in your sleep." He explained. You hugged him and cried again.

"Lee…Please, don't leave me…He…came back to get me…and you…you weren't there…" You told him between muffled sniffles. Lee's breathing stopped for a moment for a reason you didn't know. Then, his heart beat sped up and you felt him get warmer. You pulled away and looked at him confused. His face was red. "What's the matter?" He continued to blush.

"It…it is nothing, Etsu-Chan. Come on, back in bed. I'll stay with you." He assured, climbing under the covers with you. He clearly didn't understand what two people sleeping in the same bed meant. You blushed as he wrapped his arms around you and snuggled up to you like you were a teddy bear. He made a cute little –squee- sound. "Good night, Etsu-Chan."

"G-Goodnight…" You stuttered out but, Lee was already asleep. You smiled, and looked at his face. Lee had grown quite handsome while you were away. His hair had grown a little longer and out of the bowl cut. Now, he looked like any normal boy. He even picked out normal clothes to wear when he wasn't training. You blushed as his arms wrapped around you tighter, making his face come down next to your ear.

"Sakura…Chan…Mmm." He moaned loudly, his lips pressing up against the side of your face. You blushed furiously. He still liked Sakura, then. You knew this, and still you felt sudden warmth from him. You smiled and fell asleep, unaware of the one watching from outside.

Hiei was fuming. How dare that human fool sleep next to his woman! Earlier, he'd told Yukina that he was going for a walk and came to Kohona to make sure no one was hurting Etsu. Yes, it was a lie. Yukina wouldn't have let him leave if he told the truth. What really got him angry was when the human boy whispered next to her ear…and she acted like she liked it! Hiei clenched his fists. Did she really hate him so much as to already find interest in someone else?

"Damn," He cursed, turning to go back to the temple.
