Experimental Obsessions

Chapter 9

The sun came up enough that it started to shine into the windows of the temple, sure to wake up most if not all of the others. It was about 7 in the morning when moving could be heard in some rooms. Kurama came out of his room first and yawned a bit, covering his mouth while he did so. He shut his door right as Yukina would open hers revealing that Kuwabara was passed out on her bed which happened often since they were a couple. She turned and shut her door soft as if not to wake up the sleeping giant in her room. She then turned back around to see Kurama, "Oh! Good Morning Kurama. How did you sleep?" She asked holding her hands in front of her body out of pure habit. He smiled softly over at her, "I slept alright and how about you Yukina?" He asked and she just nodded her head a little with a simple reply, "I slept fine." She yawned after answering his question. He lifted and eyebrow, "Are you sure?" She smiled and her cheeks turn a slight pink, "I'm sure." She stated as she walked to Nissa's door now and went to crack it open but stopped when Kurama whispered, "What are you doing?" She glanced at him, "Seeing if Miss Nissa is still doing alright after earlier." She stated this caused him to raise an eyebrow slightly, "Oh?" Now he was a tad curious. She nodded, "Mhmm… Woke up to a thud earlier… it looked like she had fallen out of the window…" She stated before going to open the door sure Kurama wasn't going to talk anymore, not wanting to wake up Nissa if she was sleeping.

She peaked her head in and looked around not seeing Nissa anywhere and the window wide open. Her eyes got large as she pushed open the door more. "Nissa?" She called out softly. When Yukina did this Kurama walked behind her seeing that the window was open and no sign of anyone in there. He let out a sigh, "I'll wake up Yuuske mind seeing if Hiei is awake Yukina?" He asked and she nodded, "I hope she's alright…" She seemed very worried about Nissa now. Kurama walked to Yuuske's door and knocked softly before opening the door slightly, not looking in though. "Yuuske…?" he called into the room just hearing loud snoring. Yukina knocked on Hiei's door, which after a moment he answered, in his training pants, his black shoes and black top. He seemed to brighten up though it couldn't be seen it just was in his cold eyes, "Hm?" He asked. Yukina looked up at him with her worried eyes making him a tad angry on the inside not liking her being worried. "I'm sorry for waking you Hiei… But Nissa isn't in her room and the window is wide open…" She seemed really upset, "Don't worry." He said in a cold but comforting tone to her. She smiled slightly at him, "Thanks…" She whispered some how knowing he'd go to find her when he could.

"She what!" was heard coming from Yuuske room, making Yukina and Hiei look over to see what was going on. Kurama sighed coming out of Yuuske's room, shutting the door behind him. In the room there was thuds and what not as Yuuske was freaking out a bit getting dressed. Hiei shook his head also and Yukina laughed just slightly. "That's the quickest he's ever gotten up in a while." Kurama stated with a small sigh and a little bit of a chuckle. He looked at Hiei, "You coming to find her also?" He asked. Hiei glared just slightly and 'Hn'ed at them shutting his door. Kurama chuckled a bit and Yukina smiled, "That's a yes." He stated and Yukina nodded with a smile on her face as she began walking to the kitchen, "I'll go start breakfast." She stat in a calmer tone now that she knew that her new friend was going to be looked for though she was still nervous and worried about it.

After a few minutes Kurama and Hiei were out in the hallway right before Yuuske came running out dressed now. Hiei didn't have his cloak on at this point but his katana was strapped to his side like usual. Kurama looked at Yuuske who was still angry and worried at the same time. "You need to calm down." Hiei piped up in a blunt way making Yuuske glare at him, "Shut it Hiei. She's family." He stated and kept his eyes on him. Hiei rolled his eyes while Kurama just looked at both of them and shook his head. "Should we check her room first?" He asked seeing how bad Yuuske wanted to leave without thinking. Yuuske nodded a bit as he walked to her room and opened the door rather roughly as he was mad. Something rolled across the ground that was shiny when Yuuske swung the door open. This caught their eyes and Hiei went to it quickly as it looked like something he had seen before. He knelt down and grabbed it, examining it a bit but was shocked at what it was. Kurama looked down at it while Hiei had it in his hands. Kurama also looked surprised while Yuuske was behind him, "What is it guys?" He seemed very irritable as he waited for the answer. "Tear gem." He stated bluntly though there was some shock in his voice. Kurama piped up, "But it's not like any of the Koorime tear gems… Color wise it's very different." He seemed fascinated by the gem in Hiei's hand.

"So?" Yuuske stated in a somewhat bitter tone and a 'why does that matter' look to his face. He looked around the room as Kurama stood up now, "Doesn't look like there was any struggle." He stated in a matter-of-fact tone. Hiei made his signature 'Hn' noise as if agreeing with Kurama. Yuuske groaned a bit, "Then where is she?" He asked all pissed off about it all. Hiei rolled his eyes as Kurama responded, "Well we can go out and locate her." He stated, Yuuske nodded in agreement as he they went to jump out the already open window and went to find where she was, though Kurama and Yuuske were calling out her name. Hiei didn't see the point in that as he walked with them through the forest though caught something and pointed, "She's that way." He stated in a cold bitter tone. They could all feel the faint energy signature coming from the direction Nissa was in and they started heading that way quickly.
