Lily here! And this is the second chapter!
There is a dark room, lit only by a single candle but although it was dark, something lit the room making it seeable. A troubled voice broke the peaceful silence.
"Is he born yet?"
"Yes, he is born. This boy, whose fate I have made, will help us rule all of Demon World!"
Two people stood behind a man by the platform. Over the platform was a screen of the purest white, shining with such beauty and life. It was a mirror that showed not the reflection of the three demons but a baby, wide eyed and bundled, floating softly in the mirror. The blonde demon's laughter filled the whole room, causing even shadows to shudder.
"How can he help us? He is just a baby who might not even survive banishment! You really think he has a chance in this harsh world, Tsuki?"
"Do you distrust the demon of fate, Yomi?"
The blind king fell silent and the other man spoke quietly, "What is the boy's name?"
Tsuki turned around and his wild eyes bore into the other demon making him twitch uncomfortably. The maniacal laugh filled the dark room yet again.
"I shall give him a name that suits him like water suits a fish; I will give him a name that everyone will fear, that everyone will reject! His name shall symbolize our rule! He shall be called-"
"Hiei?"
The fire demon was awakened from his dream abruptly by the sound of Kurama's voice. The fox laughed playfully, "You jumped, Hiei!"
Hiei's glare met with Kurama's blazing emerald eyes. When their fiery staring contest subsided, Kurama played his charming smile on Hiei, "You're strangely jumpy today, anything happened?"
Hiei shifted on the window sill, feeling the warm sun from the outside settle on his white skin. The dream he had… it was so…
Real…
"Hm? Hiei?" The fox touched the demon's stiff shoulder, bringing him away from his thoughts.
"I had a… dream." He whispered slowly although Kurama heard it as clearly as day.
"What was it about?"
Hiei shrugged slightly, "No idea. I didn't even know the people in it," He recalled the dream again, "Well, except Yomi…"
Kurama's eyes shined with playfulness as he laughed, 'Oh Hiei, why did you dream about Yomi? Your not telling me the whole story, aren't you?"
The demon hissed angrily, "I'm not hiding anything!"
"Well, that's a first."
Hiei wanted to tell Kurama of the baby in that dream. About what the three men talked about and how Yomi had been worried and anxious in his dream. But Kurama was already looking at his watch, signaling Hiei that it was time to go to the dojo.
Then something hit Kurama, a wave of force in his mind.
Demon World is in danger Kurama… help… help… Was that Yomi's voice?
Hiei saw the shock on the fox's face, "What's wrong?" Kurama looked worried.
"Um… You go ahead Hiei… I'll catch up. I need to do something…" How he hated lying to Hiei, he knew the demon always trusted him.
Hiei had a sick feeling of leaving without Kurama but he knew the fox would be alright.
Hiei went on without him…
As Kurama ran towards the hole that led to Demon World…
