Chapter 4 Flight of the Fugitives
Light laughed as Genkia was actually trying to train little Raven so she wouldn't lose her control for no reason.
The two were just as bad as Yuusuke and Genkia.
"Sensai please, what do game cubes have to do with actual training?" the little girl asked as she sat down to
play another game with her teacher.
"Just shut up and play." Genkia demanded.
The game went quite well until Genkia did a triple move that allowed for her to win their little tournament.
Raven being at the age where she thought everything should be given to her on a silver platter and nothing less was furious!
"THAT'S UNFAIR!!!! I should win! You always win, you never let me win anything!!!!" Raven said pouting to Genkia.
Genkia turned to her as she prepared to leave till their next training day, she ignored the complaining little girl till it
was time for her to go. "Raven,if you can't accept losing you can't win." Then turned and left.
Raven sniffed and then remembered her dad and mom saying it once. It had been in a story about the past and how
in one little moment together it had also involved some arrogant demons.
Flashback:
Kurone was laughing they were on their way to another theives guild and Dark had been complaining about the arrogant
idiots that tried to defeat the older wiser of the group.
"You think they would learn! But no, they try again even though they are idiots, wait…that's why they are idiots." She rambled.
Kurone had enough of her talking and grabbing her arms pushed her up against a tree and silenced her with a kiss.
"You get angry way too easy." Kurone said kissing her cheek, lips and neck.
Dark smiled, "and you don't get angry at all. I think that I am making up for the lack of anger that you don't seem to have."
"Hm. Well it suits you. Making you all the more desirable.." He said suggestively.
"Not here…" she looked at him and her eyes widened. "You wouldn't…"
"Would I?" He said pulling at the scarf at her neck. And just as it was about to go farther they were interrupted by some scoffing demons.
"Ooh it's that human woman that bat married. Eew what are they going to do?" One scoffed.
"Kurone, please let me handle this." Dark asked into his ear.
He nodded and let her go as she turned to them, pulling out the fire poker that brought the two together unexpectedly.
It was kept burning hot by a spell wedding gift from a fire demon. (Hiei)
"Excuse me, but you were interrupting me and my husband. I think you should appologize."
"Never, come on boys let's get her." the five demons charged Dark and she expertly maneuvered her fire poker
and killed the first two instantly and then blinded the second and the third furious went faster only to get a burn
across his cheek, while the fifth turned and backed up.
"Why you (bleep) of a female." he yelled "I will get you."
"If you can't accept losing you can't win buster and good-bye." She threw a small knife Kurone had given her
and it went between his eyes killing him.
"Well bravo wife, now where were we? Oh yes, I am planning on doing this thing my dear, right here." He said leading her behind some bushes.
End of flashback.
Raven sighed she was always getting mad and throwing temper tantrums. Light walked over, "Something the matter?" she asked
as they both went to the main house where everyone was getting ready for supper.
"I just don't see where all this 'you'll get older and wiser' stuff is coming." Raven said frustrated.
"It will come with time. One of these days you'll just realize that everything is clicking together, because life is not
a bed of roses, it will have some thorns too." Light said.
She was about to turn and go with Raven when she heard something come running. Standing right in the way
of Raven was ready for anything.
"Mistress, Mistress!!!!" Worried shouting called.
A little while later Morning from the clock of Time came running out of the woods. Light took a step towards her.
"What is wrong?" She asked.
The frightened looking woman/clock-piece paused and said, "King Enma has gone too far. He has sent out
warrants for your friends family and yourself."
"What?" Light asked, "Explain."
"King Enma declares that Dark and Kurone's relationship is not acceptable and having children is worth being
terminated. Also it seems he is looking for your soul. He found that a priestesses soul is floating around he wants
the Tentai to capture it and bring it to the spirit realm. They don't know that you live. You all must flee. They
are coming right now!!!!" Morning said with all urgency.
"Where will we go?" Light asked her mind flowing with possibilities as she was running in doors with
Raven and Morning at her heels.
"Come to the clock." Morning said quietly. "You all can be there till we find a better action the will be helpful."
Light nodded quickly finding Dark. "Dark we are leaving now."
Dark saw the look on her face and nodded not asking any questions dashed upstairs and started to pack
quick emergency bags to leave within the hour.
Raven realizing they probably weren't going to be coming back for a very long time grabbed her's and her
brother's favorite toys and then anything else that she would want to bring. Her brother came toddling into
the room holding the little bunny rabbit that he had stretched the legs on and asked, "You go?"
"No," she said grabbing his hand, "We both are going."
Down stairs Dark was calling for her children. Kurone was shouldering the bags they had frantically packed
and Light touched the bags and they vanished with Morning.
"Come on."
Suddenly they all felt it. An awareness of other beings in the clearing of their home. The Tentai were here.
"Hurry," Youko said stepping in from the gardens. "They come." He started to grow strong vines at the door
so they would have to do a lot of physical force to get through.
Light nodded and taking the little toddler in her arms, grabbed Youko's arm and then concentrating vanished,
with nothing left behind. The Tentai came through the door just as they vanished.
"Um, where'd they go?" Kuwabara asked looking around he could have sworn that there was about six people
at the entrance to the door seconds after they entered.
"They are gone." Hiei, "They used a transporting portal." Then to himself said, That will be hard to track.
"Kuwabara, Answer this question, "Shizuru asked coming in from behind, "The length of rectangle S is 20
percent longer than the length of rectangle R, and the width of rectangle S is 20 percent shorter than the width
of rectangle R. The area of rectangle S is
A.20 greater than the area of rectangle R
B. 4 greater than the area of rectangle R
C. equal to the area of rectangle R
D.4 less than the
area of rectangle R
Or E. 20 less than the area of
rectangle R"
Kuwabara paused and thought about this question as Hiei looked and Yuusuke and asked him mentally,
"You are sure that the Baka isn't going to make his brain explode by all this study."
"Who knows," he responded, "Maybe all that empty space in there is being actually filled."
Then Kuwabara said, "I say B."
"Wrong." Shizuru said, "Try again."
This time he thought about it some more and then said, "It's D. Isn't it?" He asked her.
She nodded, "The reason that it is D is because, if you represent the length and width of rectangle
R as x and y. Then the area of R is xy. The length of rectangle S is 20 longer than x, which is x + 0.20x,
or 1.2x. Similarly, the width of S is y – 0.20y, or 0.8y. The area of S is (1.2x)(0.8y), which simplifies to
0.96xy. From this it follows that the area of rectangle S is 4 less than the area of rectangle R."
Yuusuke shook his head, turning to Hiei said, " Think that Kuwabara is filling that hole of a brain finally."
Kuwabara thought about what Yuusuke said then growing angry said, "Why Urameshi I'm going to pound you."
He went to do it when Hiei stopped them by holding up a picture frame into the two angry bull's faces.
There in the picture frame was a family photo. A young lady with black hair stood holding a little baby
that looked like her. Beside her a bat demon stood with his wings out a laughing expression on his face
as the little girl in the photo was trying to make her wings spread just as wide as daddy's.
Tucked into the side of the frame was another picture. This one was old, and slightly dog eared at the
edges, it showed a young lady with golden blond hair with her arm over the shoulder of the shorter black
haired lady. They were smiled broadly at the camera and were wearing human clothes. Standing in front of
a huge tree they recognized it as the fir trees found in the western part of the world probably in the United States.
"That's the lady you have to capture with her family?" Shizuru asked looking at the picture. "They look happy."
"I wonder who that woman is?" Yuusuke asked tapping the blond's picture.
"Hn" Hiei set out to start using his Jagan eye to see if he could find this rogue family.
