Chapter 2
Hikori and Raimeihi arrived home a few hours later.
"Hikori!" Kaika shrilled as she attached herself to her brother's leg.
"Kaika," Hikori said as he stumbled inside. "I'm all dirty, and you're making it hard to walk." He braced himself with his staff. "Dad, can you get her off?"
Hiei came over and gently pulled Kaika off. "You seem to like your brother more than you like me," Hiei said as he set the girl down. The little girl grinned up at him.
"Hikori," Shiroi said as she came out of the kitchen, "What have I told you about bringing the staff inside?"
Hikori sighed, and shifted the staff back into two sias. "'You're going to break something'" He quoted. "Have I ever broken anything?"
"No," Hiei answered, "But that's only because everything at home is unbreakable."
Hikori made a face as he put his sias away.
Naoru came into the room and turned to Raimeihi, "How was training?"
"Normal, until Hikori showed up that is," Raimeihi answered. "When that happened, we ended up having a match and the kids had a fun time watching."
"And they laughed at me when he beat me," Hikori grumbled.
"No surprise," Naoru said. "It's been several years since you were last here. Most of Raimeihi's students are young, and they probably don't remember you."
"I know that," Hikori said as he sat down on the couch, "But they didn't have to hit me with sticks when I was down on the ground."
"You let them do that?" Shiroi asked Raimeihi, outraged.
Raimeihi shook his head, "No, I stopped them right away. Hikori's not hurt."
"It was a bunch of little kids Mom," Hikori said. "What could they have done to me even if Raimeihi hadn't stopped them?"
"Plenty," Shiroi answered. "I know from first hand experience. She glared at Raimeihi.
"Shiroi," Naoru said. Shiroi looked at her mother. "The man that did all of that to you is not the one standing here." Shiroi eyed her mother. "Well, it's true isn't it? Did the man that nearly killed you have eyes like that?"
Shiroi glanced back at Raimeihi. For all she wished her mother was wrong, she was right.
Naoru knew that Shiroi would never forgive her father, no matter what was said or done. She decided to change the subject to the one they had talked about. "Okay, time for some good news."
"News?" Raimeihi asked.
Naoru nodded, "You and Hiei may want to sit down for it though."
"How can something be good news if we need to sit down before we hear it?" Hiei muttered.
"You'll see," Shiroi said, smiling at him. She watched as Hikori snatched up Kaika before the little girl could wander off. "Ready?" She asked all of them. They nodded.
Shiroi and her mother looked at one another, and then turned back to them, "We're pregnant!"
"Cool!" Hikori said, though he was the only one who seemed to have a positive reaction. Kaika had a very confused look on her face, since she didn't understand. Hiei and Raimeihi had the most stunned looks on their face either of the two women had ever seen.
"Well I'm at least glad to get a positive response from someone," Naoru said. "Thank you Hikori."
Hikori grinned, and plopped Kaika into Hiei's lap and jumped up off the couch. He came over and gave his mother a hug first, and then Naoru. "Are you two just going to sit there?" Hikori asked Hiei and Raimeihi
Hiei and Raimeihi seemed to snap out of their stupors. Hiei seemed to recover faster, and got calmly to his feet. He came over to Shiroi and took her arm in his hand. He gave her a look that seemed unreadable to everyone else. Shiroi looked at him for a moment, but then nodded and they both went into Shiroi's room and shut and locked the door.
"What's with Dad?" Hikori asked.
"I don't know," Naoru answered as he husband approached. "I see you've moved. Well, what have you to say for yourself?"
Raimeihi cleared his throat, and then swept Naoru into his arms and kissed her.
Hikori laughed, "Nice response, but Kaika's still in here."
Raimeihi broke the kiss with his wife and glared at Hikori, "So take her and your hide into another room. You can also explain what's going on to her."
Me?" Hikori asked. He turned around to face Kaika, whom was still sitting on the couch with a confused look on her face. "Ah man," Hikori groaned. He sighed and picked up his little sister, "Come on, time for a Talk."
"Uh-oh," Kaika said as Hikori went down the new hallway and into his room.
ooo
Hiei closed and locked the door behind him.
"Is something wrong?" Shiroi asked as Hiei turned around to face her.
Hiei approached her and gripped her arms, "Why did you let this happen?"
"Let this happen?" Shiroi asked, "What do you mean?"
"I told you I didn't want you getting pregnant," Hiei answered. "Not again."
Shiroi glared at him, "It's my body and therefore my choice."
Hiei glared back, "I don't want to risk losing you again."
"I'm not stopping it," Shiroi said, "Nothing you say or do will make me change my mind."
Hiei sighed. She was right; nothing he could do would change her mind. He reached out and held her shoulders. "I'm not letting you out of my sight. I don't want anything happening to you. Not this time." He pulled her into a tight, but gentle hug. "Nothing's going to go wrong this time."
Shiroi sighed, knowing that always having him around would have its good points and bad points. "You don't have to."
"I know I don't," Hiei said. "I just don't want to take any chances this time."
Shiroi pulled away from him, "I know you don't want anything happening. I figured that coming here was the best option. There are always people around and less of a chance that something will happen."
Hiei sighed, "I think you forgot to take into account that bandits pass through villages like these."
Shiroi rolled her eyes, "I talked to my mother, and there haven't been any bandit attacks since she and Raimeihi returned. Even if there were to be an attack, I think the defense for Raimeihi has put together plus you will be sufficient enough to stop anything."
Hiei snorted, "You make it sound so simple. Fighting off bandits isn't easy. I know; I grew up with some."
Shiroi nodded, "I know, you told me, a long time ago. But if you know that, you also know their weaknesses, or at least some of them."
Hiei shrugged. "I don't want to get into that." He sighed, "Well, I guess there isn't much else we can do but go through with it."
Shiroi smiled, "Good. I'm glad you aren't going to try and force me to get rid of it."
Hiei blinked, "Even if I wanted you to I know you wouldn't do it. You're just stubborn that way."
Shiroi sighed, "Come on, lets go out and see what my mother is doing. And I'm pretty sure we'll have some explaining to do to Kaika."
Hiei groaned, "That's not going to be pretty."
Shiroi giggled as they left the room and went back out to the living room. Much to their surprise, Hikori had explained what was going on to Kaika.
"It was easy," Hikori said with a grin. "I gave her the basics, answered any questions she had, and that was that." He ruffled Kaika's hair. "Right Kaika?"
Kaika nodded, "I'm not going to be the little one anymore."
"That's right," Shiroi said. "You won't be. You'll be a big sister."
Kaika giggled and jumped up and down, full of her childish energy. "Is it going to be a baby brother or a baby sister?" she asked.
Shiroi smiled, "We won't know until after its born."
"Oh," Kaika said. "Okay."
"You won't be the only one who's going to be a big sister," Naoru said as she came up behind Shiroi. "Your mom is going to be a big sister too."
Kaika blinked it slight confusion, but didn't ask any questions, much to Shiroi and Naoru's relief.
ooo
