Chapter 2: Darkness Meets Light
Three boys walked down a quiet neighborhood. The taller boy out of the three was staring strait ahead. He was wearing a blue, school uniform. His hair an orangish red color. He spotted a girl sweeping the steps of a shrine. A strange tingling sensation went up his spine and he was about to say something to his friends when a comment escaped his friends mouth. Turning he glared at the boy with short slicked backed black hair. The boy wore a similar outfit as his own, though a green color instead of blue.
“Take that back Urameshi,” the taller boy fumed, only earning a grin from the shorter one. He clenched his fists and moved into a fighting stance “Do you want to start something Urameshi?” The shorter boy only laughed at him. But before anything else could happen, the third boy walked between them. He had red hair and deep emerald green eyes. His outfit consisted of a pinkish uniform. “Yusuke, Kuwabara, we don’t have time for this. Keiko’s waiting for us.”
Yususke sighed and ran his fingers through his hair, “Keiko’s not going to be happy with the news.” He shook his head knowing what was going to be the outcome. Then a smile spread across his face. He looked at the red head, the smile turned into a grin. “Hey Kurama can you do me a favor?” Kurama smiled and shook his head, “No, Yusuke. I’m not going to tell Keiko. You’re out of luck with that one.” Yusuke groaned, “But she’s going to be pissed at me.” They fell silent for a while and continued walking.
They were about to pass the shrine when Kuwabara stopped and looked around with a puzzled expression. The others continued walking until they noticed that he wasn’t following. They stopped and turned around. Kurama sighed and walked over to him, “What seems to be the problem?” He shook his head, “There was a girl standing here a moment ago, now she’s gone. I can’t even sense her.” Yusuke, who by this time was getting impatient, “you baka, the reason why you can’t sense her is because she wasn’t here. There is no where to hide and she we would have seen her heading up the shrine steps.” He began to tap his foot impatiently.
“I’m not an idiot I really did see her! She was wearing one of those old style kimonos.” Kuwabara felt hurt that he wouldn’t believe him. He tried to sense her once again but found nothing. He knew he wasn’t seeing things; he had a gut feeling that there was something wrong with the girl. Yusuke sighed and turned to kurama, “Can you hear or sense her?” Kurama shook his head, “No I can’t even smell her, you must be mistaken.” With a triumphant look on his face, turned back to Kuwabara, “You see, now can we hurry up? Keiko is going to be mad if I’m late.” He turned and continued down the street. “She was there, I know it.” Sighed Kuwabara and followed Yusuke in deep thought. (Kuwabara’s pov)
“Where did she go? I should have been able to sense where she went, or at least been able to see her run up the shrine steps. Plus why did she give off that strange aura. I’ve never sensed anything like her. She couldn’t be human; I wonder if Koenma knows who she is. I’ll have to ask him before we start or new mission tomorrow.” (Normal pov)
Kurama was about to follow but stopped. Turning around he stared at a tree that was nearby. A strange sensation went through his body. He could sense her now, the girl Kuwabara was talking about. Her aura was different; he had not sensed anything like her in a while. He turned then and followed Kuwabara a small grin on h is face. (Kurama’s pov)
“So there are a few more left. But she is different from the rest of her kind. She gives off the feeling of the old ways. But she is not of the old ways. Her aura also gives of the sense of much experience, which one would get only in battles that normal humans can no longer take part in. This should bring about an interesting puzzle.”Kurama could feel feel Yoko getting interested at the mere mention of a puzzle. Both him and Kurama enjoyed puzzles of all kinds. (Normal pov)
They turned down the street and headed to the movie theater where Keiko was waiting for them. Kurama turned his head slightly when he sensed a familiar aura in a tree next to them. He smiled knowing the other two didn’t realize he was there. He looked up into the trees, “Hello Hiei. Do you wish to join us?” Yusuke and Kuwabara looked around with confused looks on their faces. Kuwabara walked over to Kurama, “where’ the shrimp? I don’t see him.”
A “hn” can be heard as a short figure dressed in all black, except for a white cloth his forehead, jumped down from the trees. He had spiky jet black hair with whit in the shape of a star. He looked up at Kurama with an annoyed look on his face, “We need to talk Fox.”
Kurama frowned but nodded, turning to Yusuke and smiled, “Sorry Yusuke, but I won’t be able to come with you. Give my regards to Keiko would you?” Turning around he began walking away with Hiei. Yusuke began to follow after them, “Hey! Don’t leave me alone with Keiko and Kuwabara!” Kurama waved and continued walking never looking back.
Kuwabara doubled his fists and shook them at Yusuke, “What the Hell is that suppose to mean Urameshi?” Yusuke turned around and sighed. Ignoring the question he continued walking to their destination “come on Kuwabara Keiko’s waiting.” Kuwabara huffed and chased after him demanding he tell him what he meant.
Kurama and Hiei walked quietly next to each other for a while, “Kurama, did you sense that odd aura a little while ago?” Kurama looked at Hiei from the corner of his eye and nodded, “It’s strange but Kuwabara sensed it before I did. I didn’t do anything because Yusuke and Kuwabara where around.
Hiei frowned, “Your getting soft hanging around all these humans Fox. But I will look into it and get some information from Koenma if you can. Also Kurama you might want to make that baka forget he sensed her. We don’t want him meddling in this situation he will bring in Yusuke as well. Something strange is going on and I want to find out what.” Kurama nodded, “It will not be easy but I will get something out of him.” They were about to split up when kurama stopped, “Oh, and Hiei, Koenma is hiding things from us. Things that are very important to know.”
Hiei nodded and disappeared into the darkness. Kurama looked up into the sky that was already filling up with stars. “What are you hiding from us Koenma?” Kurama whispered into the wind. A star suddenly blinked out and Kurama frowned up at the empty space. Than he to disappeared into the darkness with a million questions racing through his mind.
Hiei ran deep into the woods, trees flashing past him as he moved silently. Stopping when he reached a pond. Starring down into its endless depths of dark water. He leapt up into a tree, letting his mind drift of as he fell into a half sleep. His eyes snapped open when he heard the bushes from under him rustle. Then a young girl with raven black hair stepped forth. His eyes widened when the water glowed a silvery color as fog rolled over the still cool water, firefly’s dancing over the top.
He looked into her eyes; nothing held so much pain and loss. A pain no human can possibly ever get in their eyes in this era unless they went to the demon realm. Then he sensed it. That strange aura that should have died out years ago. He narrowed his eyes and stared at her back when she walked closer to the pond. He tried to enter her mind but a powerful wall blocked him from doing so. His eyes filled with distrust and danger. The aura around her was a strange aura. It was much different then the aura of a normal one of her kind. He waited a little while, just watching her.
Kagome tensed as a shiver ran up her spine. She could sense it, a demon. It wasn’t like the others she has seen that day, it felt like a fire apparition and an ice apparition. She slowly inched toward an area of trees on the opposite side of where he was. She could only sense the general direction he was in. Since she couldn’t sense where exactly he was it made her feel uneasy.
She was about to bolt but he grabbed her around the neck and slammed her against a tree, knocking the air out of her lungs. Fear clutched at her but she forced it behind her and put up a blank masked that hid her emotions. Hopping that all the training Sesshoumaru had given her paid off. (Kagome’s pov)
“Why does this always happen to me? Is he after the Shikon no tama? I have to protect it; I won’t let it cause anymore pain. I will find a way to end its destruction, even if I must die with it, and I won’t let anyone get in my way. I have come too far and lost too much to let it fall in the wrong hands.” (Normal pov)
“Tell me onna, what is this strange aura that surrounds you? It is much different than your kind, and I do not mean those pathetic humans you live with. Don’t even think about lying to me either I will be able to sense it if you do.”
Kagome gasped as she tried to get some air, her anger starting to flare up, “Demon, if you do not wish to be purified into dust, I subject you put me down. I cannot be held responsible for the outcome of the situation if you do not unhand me now.” Hiei’s eyes narrowed,” Answer my question and I will decide whether or not it will be worth killing you. Your power is not even close to mine, so don’t even try threatening me. It will not work.”
“If that is you decision demon, so be it. But don’t forget, I did warn you,” Kagome closed her eyes and searched deep within herself. Grabbing a hold of the power nestled deep with her soul and sent it into his hands. Hiei’s felt a sharp pain shoot into his hands as a bright blue light swirled around her. A flash of light exploded from her towards him as he dropped her and attempted to dodge it.
