He eyed me slightly when I yelled for him to put me down, but didn't stop walking .'Okay, that's it shortly.' I think as I slap him. He stopped and glared at me.

"Knock it the hell off woman." He hissed. I stared at him like he was nuts.

"Listen here, you little bug eyed creep, PUT ME DOWN!" I growled.

He finally set me down, and was going to say something when someone called out my name.

"Jackie," my best friend, Rachel, called as she ran up. When I looked back, he was gone.

"Hey, Jackie! You forgot your history book at my house yesterday. You kind of left in a weird daze." Rachel called as she ran up to me.

"Oh, thanks. Yeah, I was feeling strange yesterday." I mumble slightly, hitting my head. My hand moved to my neck. 'Mark' I thought as I rubbed it.

Rachel slightly blinked, seeing the bite mark on my neck. " Jeez!" she said. "Did a gremlin get you or something?" she gasped.

Hiei, who was watching from a nearby tree, practically fell out of the tree, with a dull look on his face. 'What the hell is a gremlin?' he thought.

"Maybe it's a snake bite?" Rachel said, scratching her head. "Do you feel sick?" she asked as I looked at her, thinking. My stomach had felt upset.

'Dammit, won't that girl leave already?' Hiei thought as he shifted.

"Well, I do feel a little sick. But it's not a snake bite, I wouldn't be up and about." I said as I started to walk.

"What if you're a vampire now?" Rachel said slightly. "I hope you're not, because I don't want to become a snack." she added.

I turn to look at her with a weird look before grinning. "Aawww, but I would think you would want to join me." I said in a low, vampiric voice. I laughed as Rachel ran off ahead of me. I ran to catch up." I was just kidding, come back." I mumbled as I raised and eyebrow.

Rachel laughed loudly as she stopped and waited for me to catch up. "Vampires are freaky." Rachel said. Unbeknownst to me and Rachel, Hiei had followed me. I smiled slightly as I caught up. "Vampires are cool, except for the bursting into flames when the sun touches my skin thing." I said. I stopped, slowly looking around.

"There's that feeling again." I mumbled. I really didn't know if it was him or some other freak.

"Eh?" Rachel asked. "What do you mean?"

"For about a month I've been getting this feeling that I'm being watched. And even more since I got this mark and..." I stopped, I didn't want to worry my friend by telling her about the guy dressed in black.

Rachel looked worried already, even without me saying anything about the guy that saved me, but wouldn't let me go. She was my best friend, and had always been by my side. "Do you want me to stay over tonight after school?" Rachel asked. It was Friday, and my parents were off on a business trip.

"Would you...I hate it when my parents leave on these long trips." I said as the two of us started to walk to school again. School seemed to go very slow, the classes seemed way too long.

Rachel and I walked to my home, of course, the feeling of being followed never left me.

next day

"Hey, Rachel, I'm running out to get donuts, be back in a little bit. Keep sleeping." I called up the stairs from the bottom of the steps. "Yeah, you woke me up now." Rachel grumbled to herself as she rolled over, trying to go back to sleep.

I had put my school uniform on, even though I didn't have school. Hiei's eyes snapped open. You were leaving the house, alone. He stood up and ran out to find you. He had returned to his place at the temple the night before, being he wasn't going to be able to get to you when you had a friend.

As I walked, I looked through my bag for money. Hiei watched you from behind, slowly and silently walking closer up behind you. I slightly looked up, I kind of knew someone was behind me. I quietly put my money back in my back and looked ahead of me.

'Smart Onna,' Hiei thought, 'just keep on going. Right into my trap.' He thought as he began to walk faster. I could hear his footsteps now.

I shifted as I listen to the steps, and at the right moment, I turned, moving down into a low kick, tripping him. Of course, I didn't stick around long enough to see if he went down or not. I had taken off running. 'Me and my stupid moves.' I thought as I ran. (ooo, the all mighty Hiei just got tripped, didn't see that coming. Lol)

Hiei cursed and got up, quickly running after you. He caught up to you and grabbed you from behind.

"Let go!" I yelled, kicking at his legs." Let go of me you freak!" I yelled louder.

"Be quiet Onna!" Hiei yelled as he held onto you tightly, but we both lost our balance, falling backwards. Hiei landed on top of me, pinning me to the ground. My eyes went wide as I stared at him.

"PERVERT!" I screamed, smacking him across the face. While he was a little shocked from the slap, I slid out from under him, quickly getting up. Hiei was getting aggravated. "Dammit, stay still!" He growled. He tackled me to the ground before I could take off again.

I looked up at him and started to cry. (Why the weird moods, you'll learn later. But who wouldn't start crying when this guy keeps coming for you?) "Let go of me, please?" I whimpered.

"Maybe if you didn't try to run away, I wouldn't have to hold you down." Hiei said. "Ugh...now don't cry." He added, seeing my eyes get watery.

"What do you want with me?" I whimpered as I looked at him, I couldn't stop the tears. I may have been strong, but everyone gets scared.

Hiei sighed as he looked at me quietly, before answering. "You're my mate Jackie." He said, wishing I would stop crying. I stared at him like he was insane.

"I am not. Now get off me." I grumbled. Hiei watched me, then gently traced along the bite mark with his fingertips.

"Where do you think that came from?" He said. I glared at him.

"How dare you." I growled. This guy was a whack job alright. He growled right back at me. "You should be thanking me. Do you have any idea who I am?" he said.

"Like I care!" I yelled. "Get away from me!" I scream, pushing him off me and getting up. He growled slowly as he went after me.

"Damn Onna."

I ran up the steps to my house and went inside, quickly shutting the door. I came into my hallway, and then into the living room. I paused and looked up as I realized he was standing in my living room, staring at me. The room across from me was dark, causing his eyes to glow an odd red.

I glared as I stood there. "You're not wanted here, get out." I growled. He walked closer.

"You can't deny that you're my mate." He seemed to have gotten closer than I had realized, and stood about a foot away. 'Can't you hear my thoughts?' He said in my mind.

I stared at him. "Just what the hell are you?" I grumbled.

"I'm Hiei Jaganshi...a fire demon, if you must know." he said dully.

"Well, if you're a demon, go find a girl demon." I grunted and went up the stairs to my room.

NOTE: Leaving you there. Why would Hiei mark you when you don't even know him? And why is he so pushy to make you his mate?
