Kurama pulled Hiei for awhile until no one was around. "What's your problem?" he asked loudly, causing Hiei to jump at the sound of his voice.
"Nothing. What's yours?" Hiei asked trying to sound calm, but there was a definite quiver in his voice.
"Hiei. I didn't mean to yell, but you make me so mad sometimes."
"So I don't care if you yell."
"Come on."
"Where to this time?"
"I told you I wanted to take you somewhere. So let's go."
"Don't… no!"
"You were going to say it, so say it."
"No!"
"Fine then, let's go."
"No."
"Hiei I fed you, now you have to do what I want. I just want to show you something fun."
"I don't believe you."
"Why not?"
"Because… I don't deserve it."
"That's beside the point. I said I was going to take you before you growled at Kaito, so I'm still going to take you."
"Hn." Hiei followed Kurama down some stairs in the sidewalk and into a weird man-made cave. Kurama went and looked at something on the wall while Hiei looked around at all the people. There were so many, most were just standing around, but some were playing music and people would drop money in their hats while others were holding up signs and little tin cups and people would give them money as well. 'Hn, well that seems stupid,' Hiei thought before going over to Kurama and tugging on his shirt.
"What is it?" Kurama asked without looking at Hiei.
"How come ningens are paying the people who aren't doing anything?" Kurama looked at Hiei confused. "See they're just sitting there and the others are at least playing music even if it is horribly." Hiei pointed to the people getting paid to do nothing.
"Hiei it's rude to point," Kurama said pushing Hiei's arm down before continuing to look at the large map on the wall. "They're beggars. They just sit there and beg people for money because they can't play an intrument or get a proper job." Hiei nodded and tried to ignore the fact that he himself couldn't play an intrument and didn't have a job. Suddenly Hiei became aware of a loud noise coming from a tunnel in the cave that he hadn't seen before since he couldn't see over the heads of the crowd. Just then a big gust of wind went through the tunnel as a large metal demon ran through. Hiei reached for his sword, when he realized he didn't have it and quickly hid between Kurama and the wall. "Hiei it's just the train. It's not going to hurt you."
"Hn I knew that," Hiei said but stayed hidden. When Kurama started toward the tunnel looking at his watch, Hiei stayed where he was.
"What's wrong? They're just like giant cars okay?"
"So we're gonna get in that thing?"
"Well in the next one yeah. Come on you'll be with me. I'll protect you." Kurama held out his hand and Hiei slowly walked closer to the tunnel. When the next train started to come Hiei hid behind Kurama and watched as it stopped and a lot of people got off before others including Kurama and himself got on. The first thing Hiei noticed was how crowded it was, then he noticed there were rows of seats on each side. Kurama grabbed his arm and pulled him to one corner before sitting down away from the crowd. Hiei didn't like all those people around him and he really hated being in such a small place with all of them. Kurama noticing Hiei's anxiety slowly began to rub his back to try and calm him down. Once he started to calm down, he noticed the smells around him. It was a mixture of urine, fresh baked goods, and too much perfume.
"How long do we have to be in here?" Hiei, feeling dizzy, asked so quietly only Kurama's fox ears picked up the sound.
"About forty five minutes. You gonna be okay?" Hiei nodded but leaned closer to Kurama when someone sat next to him.
They were only five minutes from their destination when Hiei groaned and moved away from Kurama. "Are you okay?" Kurama asked placing a hand on Hiei's shoulder.
"No," Hiei moaned.
"What's wrong?"
"I think I'm gonna- bleargh," Hiei couldn't stop it from coming out and threw up on the guy next to him. The man angrily got up and was about to hit Hiei when a bunch of women started hitting him with their purses and yelling at him for even thinking about hitting a child. Meanwhile Kurama rubbed Hiei's back as he got it all out of his system.
Hiei was thankful when they finally got off into another cave and Kurama led him to a bench to sit down. "It's okay Hiei. It wasn't your fault."
"Of course not, it was the damn smell in there!" Hiei stated before taking a deep breath.
"Well you added another scent for future riders," Kurama said with a smile and to his surprise Hiei laughed a little. "Let's just sit here until you feel better." Kurama sat down next to Hiei and Hiei began to look around at all the people waiting. Just like the other cave there were people playing music for money and people begging for money. Hiei noticed a beggar squatting in one corner and focused on him. The guy didn't have a sign out like the others and wasn't holding up a cup for money.
'Why's he over there? No one's gonna go into the corner just to give him money. It looks like he's-' Hiei didn't like where his thoughts were going and began to tug on Kurama until he looked down. "Can we leave now?"
"Are you sure you're okay?" Kurama asked standing up.
"Yes! I just wanna leave."
"Okay." Kurama headed up the stairs and onto the sidewalk with Hiei following.
