Yumiko"s POV

I slowly felt myself regain consciousness. I shook myself to try to wake myself up, but quickly stopped that method. My head was burning with a headache. I stayed were I was for a second more, when I realized something. I wasn't lying on the hard forest floor, I was on something soft and warm.

I opened my slowly, so I wouldn't hurt my head. As my eyes slowly adjusted to the light, I saw where I was laying. I was on a fairly large bed, a dark blue silk pillow behind my head, with matching sheets, which were pulled up to my chin. I snuggled closer to the blankets, welcoming the warmth they were giving me. Out of nowhere a question occurred to me.

Why was I here? What happened?

I started to panic. In my panicked state I rolled over, falling off the bed, and onto my right arm. I let out of a shout of pain, but heard nothing. I tried to move, but the pain in my arm wouldn't let me. I started to feel tears in my eyes, but didn't allow them to fall. I silently prayed for someone to come and help me. I shut my eyes, trying to forget the pain, but unable to do so.

I still refused to let the tears fall. I tried to move again, but pain shoot up threw my arm, and I stayed were I was. I felt a tear trying to fall down my face, and found no strength to hold it back. The tear started to fall down my cheek, but I felt a hand gently brush it away.

I felt myself wish for help again. As if my wish was answered, I felt myself being risen and put back on the bed, with my head on the pillow and the warmth of the covers being brought back up to my chin. The pain started to disappear. I slowly opened my eyes again. As my eyes became less blurred, I saw a pair of eyes looking at me. The eyes were red. Crimson red. I stared at them, feeling drawn to them.

Wait, I know those eyes.

I broke my gaze to look at the owner of the eyes. It was the guy from the forest. The same one who saved my life.

Hiei. He must have been the one who brought me here, but why?

Why didn't he just leave me in the forest to die?

I tried to speak, only to find that no voice came from it. I tried again, nothing. I started to panic. I started to notice that he became distressed when I panicked, and he sat down on the bed next to me, and gently touched my arm, which was shaking. I calmed down at his touch. Something in my head told me he wasn't going to hurt me, if he was he wouldn't have helped me. I knew I could trust him. I decided to thank him.

I tried to speak to say thank you, but again nothing came out. I didn't know why. Was I unable to talk now? I looked at Hiei, trying to understand what was happening to me. He looked confused for a second as well. I then saw his eyes widen and narrow in anger, as if he realized something that made him angry. His anger scared me and I slowly backed away from him.

His gaze softened when he noticed me back away. He looked slightly hurt. I felt guilty, I didn't mean to cause him pain, and I found myself slowly edged closer to him again. I suddenly looked at my shoulder, and noticed it was bandaged. Did Hiei bandage me up too? I looked at him with a questioning glance. Again he seemed to read my mind for what I wanted to know. He shook his head.

"No, I did not do that, the fox…….I mean a friend of mine named Kurama helped your arm."

I was confused, who was Kurama? I knew that Hiei had said he was a friend of his, but why did he call him fox? He looked at me and stood up. He spoke in an emotionless voice.

"Come with me and meet the others if you would like to know."

He stretched out his arm to help me get off the bed, and I accepted gratefully. I really wanted to know who the others who helped me were. Once I was steady on the ground, I slowly tried to walk. It was a little difficult, and I could see that Hiei was watching me in case I fell, but I made it.

Hiei slowly led me down a long hallway, which led to a large room. It was obviously the living room. Along the wall to my left there was a long, black leather couch that I guessed could have held at least five people, along with three, leather, recliner chairs around it. Along the other side of the room was a big television.

Sitting on the couch were three people, I guessed that each one was around my age. One boy had slick, black hair and brown eyes, the one next to him had long, blood red hair and emerald eyes. The third one had orange carrot top hair. He was repulsive, but I decided I would give him a chance for helping me. In front of the television was a blue haired girl, who seemed really perky by the way she was smiling.

I slowly walked to one of the recliners, and sat down. I looked up to realize that everyone in the room was looking at me. I looked at Hiei who sat down in the recliner next to me.

In a moment, the repulsive boy was in front of my chair, almost drooling. I tried to be nice to him and gave him a polite smile. That proved to be fatal to me. He picked up my hand and started to talk dramatically. His voice was like nails scratching against a chalk board.

"Hi there baby, don't fear for I am the great Kuzuma Kuwabara, but please call me Kuwabara! I will protect you from anything."

He was saying other things but I didn't really care. I noticed that Hiei had a look of jealousy. I wondered why. Was it because Kuwabara held my hand? I didn't want him to get mad, I still remembered the fear I felt when he looked angry earlier. I was pulled out of my thoughts when I saw Kuwabara's hand waving in front of my face.

"Hello Yumiko, can't you talk?"

I was surprised. He knew my name, but how? I didn't even tell Hiei my name. I would have to ask them once I got my voice back. I saw the red head move nervously. I tried again to speak, nothing. The red head sighed and stood up.

"I forgot to mention one thing to everyone. I wasn't sure at first, but Yumiko proved my fears." He fidgeted. Everyone looked at him. He turned to me with a sympathetic look. I was scared to know what was wrong. Hiei seemed to have lost all patience. He shouted at the red head.

"Well, what happened Kitsune? Yumiko at least deserves to know!"

I could hear the anger in his voice. I looked at the red head with fear. He hesitated, he obviously didn't want to say what he was going to say, probably in fear of Hiei, but he spoke up.

"I am sorry Yumiko, but you can no longer speak at all."

I am going to stop here. The next chapter will be this same event in Hiei's POV so you know.
