Chapter 12: Did someone spell treble?

 

“No no, don't worry Kurama, you'll see him in time... I just-- needed more information from him. Yes. Mm-hm. Yes. Alright. Good bye.” Koenma hung up the phone and glanced at his watch. It had been fourteen hours since Hiei was trapped inside that demon proof room with a comatose mythical creature waiting to be awakened.

 

'I hope he succeeded...' silently wished Reikai's toddler Prince. 'Otherwise-- we're in trouble... Big trouble.'

 

“And why did he have to slice that camera off!? Now I can't check on things!” continued Koenma out loud, wanting to stomp his foot on the floor-- except he was too short, so he slammed his tiny fist on his desk instead. '... I just hope nothing went wrong...' he sighed and tapped his fingers on the desk.

'Where did Mizu disappear to?' pondered a puzzled Kurama, stopping by her apartment for the fifth time in three days. 'She usually calls if she's sick...' he frowned slightly and headed back to his house.

 

“And now Hiei...” he muttered to himself, “That's very unlike him to disappear without a reason.” he sighed. Nothing he could do if he was unable to locate either of them. Nothing besides waiting, and his patience seemed to grow thinner every hour.

 

~*~
“Time's up Hiei! I hope you did the right th--” The green wall parted to reveal the invisible wall and Koenma's mouth hung open. Hurriedly, he parted the invisible wall while shouting for medics to “get in here!”

 

The room seemed completely normal, except for the minor detail of Hiei sprawled on the ground in a very livid way. The doctors rushed in the room and swarmed around the unconscious fire demon, then gently turned him on his back.

 

“Hiei? Hiei can you hear me?” asked Koenma while tapping Hiei's cheek. Nothing. “Hiei that's not funny! What happened? What did you do? Is she awake!?” Koenma apparently lost it and started yelling his questions as loudly as he could.

 

As if to answer at least one question, Mizu's eyes fluttered opened silently. And as if in a daze, her body sat up in a swift movement, which made everyone in the room jump in fear. Koenma put a hand over his heart, “Jeez, scared ten years of my life!” he complained while exhaling profoundly. “She's awake?” he muttered to himself, blinking in pleased way with a tiny smile tugging at his lips.

 

Mizu slowly sat up, her eyes holding a strange shade of blue, and walked forward, oblivious to the people in the room. So oblivious in fact she almost stepped on Koenma and a doctor. “Close the wall! Close it!” shouted Koenma when he saw the girl had no intention of stopping.

 

A doctor hurriedly pressed on a button on the remote control in his pocket, and the invisible wall closed right in front of Mizu, who walked right into it and stopped. Still in a strange daze, Mizu put both hands in front of her and touched the wall that didn't look like it was there then took two steps back and a giant step forward.

 

Well now, what happens when someone runs into a glass door? One of two things: the door breaks, or the person... collapses. In this case, the latter happened. Mizu smashed into the demon proof wall and fell on the floor, unconscious.

 

Koenma and the doctors looked at her as if she was a mentally sick patient. “Did she--?”

 

“Yes.” nodded a doctor.

 

“... Why?”

 

“Who knows?” shrugged another.

 

“Find out what's wrong with Hiei and put her back on the bed. Until we find out why everything happened the way it did, separate both of them.” ordered Koenma, standing up again to grab the ancient book and open the wall. He let the doctors take the unconscious demon out and closed the wall once the girl was back on her bed.

 

'Now I'll rummage through this and find out what happened.' thought Koenma as he sat at his desk and opened the voluminous book to the page with a picture resembling Mizu. Brown eyes skimmed the pages quickly and stopped once again at the instructions.

 

Nodding and mumbling to himself, the toddler turned the page and kept on reading until he caught a fine print on the bottom of the page. His eyes widened considerably in shock before his face crumbled into a desperate frown and he whined loudly.

 

“No, no no no! Why do we always see this last!?” Koenma gripped his face and pulled downwards, as if pealing his skin off would solve his problem. Not.

 

“Koenma sir! Koenma sir!” yelled George, bursting through the office doors.

 

“Yes, what now?” sighed the toddler, sucking on his pacifier.

 

“The doctors, they say Hiei's dehydrated. A lot!” said the blue ogre seriously.

 

Koenma nodded, “I should've read the fine print.” he mumbled miserably. “If Kurama learns about this-- no doubt he'll kill me!” lamented the poor ruler.

 

At that bit of information, George paled and took half a step back. “What?” frowned Koenma.

 

“... Uh--” uttered his assistant, poking his two indexes together.

 

“Don't tell me you let him come here, just don't tell me you would do something so grossly stupid!!” snapped Koenma, bouncing up on his chair in anger. George just paled some more, mumbled something incoherent and ran out of the room.

 

“Incompetent fool!” And in a fit, the toddler stomped both feet on his desk. Great, so his funeral had just been bumped up-- oh, a couple millenniums! Hurriedly, Koenma closed the wall so as to shield the creature from Kurama's sight.

 

“Ahh, Kurama, what a pleasant surpris--”

 

“Where's Hiei?” frowned Kurama, taking his menacing look.

 

“Aah... who? Oh, Hiei.” nervously chuckled Koenma. Seeing that Kurama wasn't fooled, Koenma stopped his forced chuckle and answered “In a room down the hall...” softly.

 

Kurama gave Koenma one last reproachful glare before heading down the hall to where he could sense his friend's weak demonic signature. Upon arriving in the room, he was shocked to see Hiei so livid. “My gosh Hiei-- what happened to you?” he quietly mused and rushed to the bedside of the fire demon.

 

An IV was hooked to Hiei's right arm, the liquid was transparent. On the other side of the bed was another pouch, this time of red liquid. 'Blood? Oh Hiei... what did they do to you?' thought a seriously concerned friend.

 

Koenma drummed his fingers incessantly on his desk, 'Damnit! I forgot to have technicians fix the camera!' he mentally punched himself, 'Now I can't see if she's awake or not.' he continued the face stretching.

 

No seriously Koenma, you don't need wrinkles. As soon as you have some, you'll switch to botox. And that's toxic! ... Pardon the interruption. Meanwhile, Kurama left his friend in the good hands of doctors and went back to see Koenma while trying not to kill him.

 

“Whatever happened to Hiei, I hold you responsible.” he glared coldly, “If he isn't better in three days, you'll wish to go back in time.” On that jovial note, he was gone through a portal.

 

“Oh brother.” sighed Koenma, letting his head fall on the desk where his hands met his face. “What did I get into now?” he whined softly. “The effort better not have been wasted...”

Or was it? I apologize if this seemed random (I hope it didn't though!) but... I should let my creativity run its course, it'll end up somewhere decent (I sure-- well, hope so!). So... yeah. ^^;; I actually wrote this in a pretty short amount of time since the last time I updated, just that thought should be comforting. Reviews are getting to me... @@ Or maybe I'm addicted to my own story again? o.o

 

DamnBlackHeart: Phew, no mistakes? I guess re-reading a chapter can be helpful, I just fixed a mistake in chapter 10. ^^;; I always say I'll try to update quickly, but I guess it's not quickly, it's quality... >.> Thanks for reviewing ^^ Re (your second review): Hehe ok, I fixed it... now I'll go and change it in the text... Thanks ^^

 

Nekomi_Meow: Lol, good in a weird way... Yeah, it still has the common "demon after her" thing and she's not totally human, but she's not a demon... @@ I don't know... but I did write a fic with a human! I was actually addicted to that one... How sad ^^;; But it's the first fic I finished o.o Thanks for reviewing =D

 

Salanti: "Hiei, to jail!" End. People would kill me ^^;; and I'd punch myself... So actually, there's no need to worry-- I'd never write it! unless... there's a reason for it... >.>

 

silver_wolf: Lol, well... yes, as sad as that is. ^^;; Thanks for reviewing, sorry for the wait! o.o

 

ChaoticAngelofElvenBlood: Thank you very much! And yay for reminding me to update on mm.org, I usually forget ._. But um, yay! I'm very happy I can write Hiei well without him being too-- OOC. Tricky :P And I did intend the story to be original, but I seem to suck at summaries so not many people read it, which makes me sad... But that's ok, as long as some people enjoy it. ^^; So very, very glad you like it! Thanks for reviewing! =D
