Chapter 9
"Creeper Status"
Hiei sighed as he leaned against the wall in the medical room. It hadn't been that long since he left koenma's office with Kagome in his arms, maybe an hour, and Kagome was still unconscious. Kagome lay on the medical bed while the rekai doctor checked all her vitals and wrote things on a piece of paper. Hiei growled a little.
"Well is she going to be alright, you haven't said anything for a hour."
The doctor looked up and glared a little.
"Excuse me for doing my job. Her wounds have already healed and they weren't the cause of her passing out."
"Then what was it?"
"She's been cursed, very reticently, like an hour ago. What was going on before you brought her in?"
Hiei began to think back.
He remembered coming in with everyone and Kagome holding him back from attacking Koenma and then Kage coming out. He remembered himself about to kill him and then Kagome kissing him to make him stop. He blushed a little at this thought but then felt anger at him self for remembering that he was the one who shed her blood. Hiei paused then, he did remember Kage moving his lips when he dropped him on the ground but didn't hear what we said. But he was almost certain He cursed her. Anger filled Hiei's body as he left the room in a blur of black.
"Furthermore, I do not appreciate you riling up my spirit detectives Kage" Kage bowed before Koenma as his hour long speech just ended. He glared at the ground as he heard said spirit detectives, minus one, and their friends snickering at his expense. "A thousand apologies Koenma sir, guaranteed it will never happen again." "Damn right it wont!" Everyone turned to see Hiei charge at Kage and grab him by the throat slamming him up against the wall. "Not again." Boton said. "HIEI! What is the meaning of this!" Koenma yelled standing from his desk. "Why not ask your little pet what happened to Kagome and why she's still unconscious. Kage snickered. "Why Hiei, I think everyone in here knows why she's unconscious thanks to you." Hiei griped his throat tighter causing him to gasp for air. "Hiei let him down and explain yourself!" Hiei turned his glare on Koenma. "He cursed Kagome and that's why she's unconscious not because of me." Everyone in the room gasped. "You can-t prove I did any-th-ing." Kage's strained voice said as he smirked.
Hiei growled loudly.
Because he couldn't prove it.
"Well Hiei, can you prove it?" Koenma asked.
Silence was his answer.
"Then unhand him now!" Hiei looked at Koenma and began loosening his hold on Kage.
Suddenly the doors from the medical department swung open and Kagome's doctor ran through holding a big book. "That's a big book." Kuwabara said as he and the others continued to watch this story unfold. "Hiei don't let that criminal escape!" And Hiei tightened his grip and grinned at Kage. "What is the meaning of this doctor?" Koenma asked exasperated. The doctor walked over to Koenma's desk, placed a big open book there and pointed into it. "We found this mark on the girls inner wrist." Koenma looked at the picture of a Black snake devouring a black heart. "What is this?" "This is a curse used to devour the heart of whoever its placed upon, a quite literal curse actually. The one who places the curse takes the victims heart and can do what ever they want with it. Use it to create a duplicate, use it in another spell ect." The doctor explained. "Ok but why is Hiei still holding Kage against the wall!" Koenma yelled. "Because Koenma sir, the mark also shows up on the one who placed the curse and if you look over at his left wrist I think you'll have your answer."
Hiei grabbed Kages wrist with his other hand and Koenma gasped seeing the mark. "Kage explain yourself!" Kage let out an evil laugh. "What can I say, she brings my desire to life! I need her heart to be mine!" "Soooo you try and eat it? Dude that's creeper status." Yusuke said. Koenma shook his head and pressed a button on his desk. "Yes Koenma sir?" Came a voice through the intercom. "Yes, please send in the SDF, we have a criminal here." "Yes sir!" Letting go of the button Koenma sighed. "You think you can trust a guy." he mumbled. "Hiei I owe you an apology and Kagome as well. I'm sorry I was so rude to you Hiei." "Hn."
The SDF came in and took Kage away and the doctor started leaving as well. "Wait doctor! What about Kagome how are you gonna get rid of the curse?" Kuwabara asked. The doctor chuckled. "We've already removed it, she should wake in a little while." And with that he left, Hiei close behind.
"Well I guess I should make arrangements to get her back to the Maikai." The others looked at each other before Yukina spoke up. "Koenma sir, couldn't Kagome stay in the nengenkia? She isn't dangerous and Hiei has taken a liking to her, even if he wont admit it." Koenma looked deep in thought. "I suppose he has, and I do owe them both an apology. Alright then she can stay here. But she'll have to attend school with you and keep her out of trouble. Boton get her a uniform." "Yes sir Koenma sir!" Boton said happily. Soon after Hiei came in with Kagome on his back. "How is she?" Yukina asked. "Fine, still unconscious." he said looking at Boton. She made a portal for them all to go home.
Coming out on the other side the sun was just starting to set. Yusuke was the first one to speak. "Well this was fun and all but I think I'm gonna go find Keiko and let her know what's up so she doesn't kill me." "Yes I do believe I should be going as well." The others watched as Kurama and Yusuke walked away. "Yukina do you want me to walk you to Genkai's shrine?" Yukina smiled. "No thanks Kazuma, I wanna talk to my brother for a bit. Boton can make me a portal." Kuwabara nodded and kissed her goodbye. "Boton can you wait at Hiei's apartment for me?" Boton nodded and disappeared. Yukina looked at her brother and smiled as they began walking to his place.
They were walking for a few minuets before Yukina spoke. "When you left to get Kagome Koenma was talking about sending her back to the Maikai." Hiei tensed and anger started seeming into everyone of his bones. Yukina felt this and spoke quickly. "But he said, as an apology, he'll let her stay." She felt Hiei calming down. "Under one condition." Hiei looked over at her. "She has to go to school. Boton dropped her uniform off at your place, we assumed she's staying with you." A red tint dusted Hiei's cheeks and Yukina smiled. "So what do you think?" "Hn, if she stayed here or went back to the maikai it would make no difference to me." Yukina giggled. "You don't have to lie Hiei, I know you like having her around. And I know she like being around you, otherwise she wouldn't have bought you that necklace you have on." Hiei looked down, he had forgotten he still had that on.
They both came to a stop in front of Hiei's apartment building where Boton was waiting. "I'll see you both tomorrow at school!" Boton said as she and Yukina walked into the portal. Hiei looked back at Kagome to see her still unconscious. 'little while my ass.' he though as he began walking up the steps lost in though. Finally stopping before his door he opened it and walked in, closing the door behind him. Going straight to his room he placed Kagome on his bed gently and covered her with the sheet. He sat on the corner of the bed for a minuet and looked at her. '….she's…so beautiful…' Shaking that though from his head he went into the kitchen to find something to eat. 'I guess she'll be hungry when she wakes up.' He began looking through the cabinets for food and stopped when he found…Ramen. About 10min later the food was done. 'Right on time.' He heard Kagome move around in his bed and headed to his room.
Opening his room door Hiei stopped in his tracks in awe. The room was alit with the last golden rays from the setting sun and it placed an almost celestial glow on Kagome. Sitting up in the bed Kagome looked at hiei and smiled. He couldn't breathe.
Her hair shined as if it were the sun itself. Her creamy skin, to Hiei, looked as if it tasted as creamy as it looked. Her smile to him seemed to light the room up even more, and her eyes, there was no way to explain how they made him feel. Her eyes, glowing pale blue and ablaze, stopped his heart, took his breath away, made him feel. "Hiei, how are you?" She said in a soft, musical voice. Her soft voice gave him back his mobility. He blinked and sighed as he moved forward. "Hn, I should be asking you. You're the one who was cursed." Confusion stretched across her face. "Cursed? By who?" "Kage, he wanted your heart." Kagome thought for a minuet and then giggled. "He did keep on saying that when we fought at the barrier." "He's in jail now in the Rekai." Kagome nodded and Hiei passed her the bowl of Ramen. "Hiei did you cook for me?" "Hn." Kagome smiled and began inhaling her food.
Kagome sighed in content as she patted her full stomach. "You know Hiei, if this Spirit Detective thing doesn't work out for you, you should become a Ramen chef." Hiei rolled his eyes and sat at the corner of the bed. A comfortable silence filled the room before their eyes met. Kagome smiled at Him, and he turned away blushing. "Hiei…" He turned to her, still glowing in the last rays of the sunlight. "Come sit up here with me." and he did. He would have done anything she asked of him at that time. Settling himself beside her in his bed, back against the headboard, he turned to her and she blushed looking down. "I…I wanted to say thank you, for everything." Confusion flashed in Hiei's eyes before it was replaced with shock. Kagome's lips pressed against his, not hard or demanding, but soft and gentle. And as soon as it began, it was over. He looked down to look into her eyes but only saw her bangs covering her eyes. He didn't know what to say or what to do, so, he said nothing and neither did she.
As the darkness spread throughout the room, Hiei looked down at Kagome once again to find her asleep at his side, moonlight cascading down onto her form making her all the more beautiful to Hiei.
