DREAMSCENE
"Anna, why haven't you told me yet that we're sisters?" Setara asked.
"I didn't think it would be necessary. You were happy thinking I was only your best friend." The other girl said, shrugging.
"But still, Anna, I'm happier right now than ever! I have an older sister! I'm not the only one left from my family." The black haired girl exclaimed. She embraced her newly found sister with flowing tears. "I'm so happy to know that we're sisters! I love you, Anna."
"I love you too, little sister." The other laughed crying too.
CHANGE IN SCENE
Setara walked in a forest, and suddenly, she heard crying. She ran towards the voices, and she found Yukina sitting on a rock. She was crying silently, hundreds of teargems falling in the grass.
"I'm so lonely… I'm the only one in my family. I still couldn't find out who my brother is. I really would like to have a big brother. Even with Kazu-chan, I'm still so lonely. My heart is just aching." She whispered to herself, as she cried even more.
"Yukina!" Setara yelled, but she didn't hear her. She just cried and cried.
END DREAM
Setara woke up with a start. She stared at the wall in front of her.
"Setara, are you okay?" Hiei asked, sitting on the bed, next to her.
"Tell her." Setara whispered then looked into his eyes. "Tell Yukina that you're her brother."
"Huh?" Hiei stared at her.
"Look, I've never really asked you anything. Just tell her who you really are." Setara asked with tears in her eyes.
"No, I won't." The demon shook his head, looking away from the pleading eyes.
"Her heart is aching so much after her long lost brother. Just tell her, Hiei… please." Setara started crying as she remembered how good it felt to finally realize that Anna is her sister.
"I can't tell her. I'm not allowed to, Setara." Hiei mumbled, hugging her, and rocking her back and forth.
"You're not?" Setara asked, sniffling.
"No, I'm not." Setara nodded her head and wiped away her tears.
"I understand." She said. "It's your life anyways." She got up to get dressed. The fire apparition got dressed too then he walked to the door.
"You are very wrong, Setara." He said quietly.
"Huh?" Setara looked up at him with confusion.
"It's not my life. It's ours." Hiei answered.
"Of course, love, I know." Setara said, hugging him from the back. Hiei took her arms off him, and walked out.
"Gods, did I hurt him that much with that sentence? I didn't mean it like that…" Setara whispered, running out. She saw Hiei disappearing into the forest. She followed, and caught his wrist just in time.
"Love, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it like that…" She said. Hiei didn't answer; he just stared stubbornly in front of him.
"Let's not play this game again, okay? I'm sorry. I truly am." Setara said fearing the worst, when all of a sudden Hiei burst out laughing.
"You should've seen your face… that utter fear!" He laughed.
"Oh, shut up!" Setara glared, as Hiei cocked one eyebrow.
"Make me." He said challengingly.
"You're going to regret that wish." She answered, chasing after his running form. They ran into the woods deeper and deeper. Soon Setara realized that she didn't remember where did she come from.
A/N: CLIFFHANGER! Kill me if you'd like to, but then you'll never know what happened to Setara, or our dear Hiei. Sorry, it's short. CHECK OUT MY EYES LIKE YOURS FOURUM!
