"What do you mean not being close to anyone?" Hiei asked as they walked around the big pond that was somewhat far from Genkai's Temple. The area that she lived in was quite big; with the fact that her temple was surrounded by a huge forest.

"It seemed that she wanted to be distant, as if she got in trouble with someone in the Makai." Kurama said to Hiei.

"When she's in trouble with someone in the Makai, it's not an if," Hiei said back to Kurama. Kurama looked at him. "She is in trouble with someone in the Makai." They both sighed. "Who's watching Yukina?" Hiei asked.

"Botan and Keiko should be watching her. Yuki probably also went out for a walk. . ." Kurama replied to him and noticed that Hiei had calmed down a bit. "Don't worry. I'm sure that they won't suspect anything." Kurama said, hoping that would help even more.

"I wonder though. . ." Hiei mumbled to himself.

"What do you wonder about?" Kurama asked, curious what the fire demon was thinking about.

"I wonder if she has learned anything new. . ." Hiei then stopped walking. Kurama then stopped a few steps away from him.

"New? Such as what?" Kurama asked.

"As in attacks or weapons." Hiei replied. Kurama thought for a while and then remembered something he had seen on tied on to Yuki's hair.

"Have you seen the bells that are tied onto her hair?" Kurama asked.

"Yea. What are those for?" Hiei replied, wondering what the Fox was thinking about.

"I think she has learned a new style of fighting." Kurama said, smiling at Hiei then thinking about Yuki.

"But what kind?" Hiei asked.

"I have no clue. I wish I had asked her before she left. . ." They then continued walking, but Kurama noticed that Hiei was still a bit distressed. "Are you still worried about Yukina and Yuki?" Kurama asked, looking down at the fire demon. Hiei didn't answer back, but Kurama could still tell that Hiei was worried. "Don't worry. They'll be fine. I'm sure Keiko and Botan are taking good care of Yukina."

"Yea, I guess. . ." Hiei then trailed off as they both heard a distant scream coming from Genkai's temple.

"Yukina!" Hiei then started quickly his way back and so did Kurama, but they were soon stopped by demons of the strongest level. "Get the hell outta my way!" Hiei yelled out as he pulled out his katana and then started slashing his way into the demons.

"Rose whip!" Kurama then threw his rose and started helping clearing a path for the both of them back to Genkai's temple, but then Hiei was taken off course when he dodged arrows that were flying his way. He landed on a tree limb and took off the bandana that was covering his Jagan. He then saw a girl that was on another tree limb and was aiming an arrow at Kurama. He looked down at Kurama and noticed that he was still busy fighting the demons. The arrow was then released towards Kurama.

"Kurama!" Hiei yelled out to get his attention about the arrow. Kurama turned around and was already too late to block the arrow, but then a spark of lighting came down and then struck down the arrow. Kurama looked from where it came from. It was another girl standing on the tree, smiling at Kurama and then turned her attention to the arrow girl.

"Who are you and why are you helping us?!" Kurama yelled out, but she motioned her attention to the demons that were going towards him, charging at him with swords. Hiei jumped down from the tree and then he stood back to back with Kurama.

"Do you think we should trust her?" Kurama asked he slashed his whip at them. Hiei smirked.

"She did just save your life." Hiei said as he jabbed his sword into a demon's stomach and then pulled it out.
