Chapter 6
Several months passed in the village. Everyone got used to the different life style, and to Naoru, it seemed as though her daughter had always lived with her.
The relationship between Raimeihi and Hikori, Shiroi, and Hiei was still on edge. Hikori trained with him daily, and developed a friendly but still reserved friendship. Hiei wouldn't let Raimeihi near Shiroi, which Shiroi gladly accepted. No matter what her mother said, and no matter how forgiving Shiroi was, Shiroi would never forgive Raimeihi. Kaika continued to be the same as usual. It only took her a few days to adjust to their new place.
Naoru's pregnancy became visibly noticeable at the end of her fourth month, when she could no longer where the sash she always wore around her waist. Shiroi though, even into the fifth month, still didn't show any visible signs of pregnancy.
Hiei was passing by their room when he noticed Shiroi lying on their bed, just staring at the ceiling. "What are you doing?" he asked as he stood in the doorway.
Shiroi looked at him, "Just thinking," she answered quietly.
"What about?" Hiei asked as he took a few steps into the room.
Shiroi sighed, "I'm wondering why my mother is showing and why I'm still like this."
Hiei didn't know what to say, "Why don't you talk to her then? You see to talk to her about everything else."
Shiroi shook her head, "No, I don't think that will do anything. I mean every pregnancy is different."
"I know," Hiei grumbled.
Shiroi closed her eyes, "I'm wondering if it's even still alive."
Hiei sighed and came over and sat down next to her on the bed. He removed his bandana. "Come here," he groaned as he gently shifted Shiroi closer to him. He settled his hand on her abdomen and closed his main eyes as the Jagan opened.
He searched through blackness, until he found a form glowing a pinkish color. There was a rhythmic pulsating in its center, and Hiei knew what it was. He pulled away from the form and back to himself. He opened his eyes and closed the Jagan.
"What did you see?" Shiroi asked calmly as he retied his bandana.
"Nothing unusual," Hiei answered.
Shiroi glared at him. "Please Hiei, don't tease me."
Hiei sighed, "It looked alive to me."
Shiroi smiled and sat up. She reached over and hugged Hiei. "Thank you." She kissed his cheek and hugged him again.
Suddenly Hikori appeared in the doorway. "Hey, Naoru said this season's traders have arrived."
Shiroi let go of Hiei, "Have they now?" She stretched, "Well, why don't we go on out and see how things are going?"
Hikori grinned and left the room. "Come on Kaika," Shiroi heard him say as she got out of bed.
"Are you coming?" Shiroi asked Hiei.
Hiei shrugged, "I might as well, there isn't anything else to do." When he got to his feet, Shiroi hugged him tightly. He returned her embrace, not as tightly, but still with feeling, and then they both left the room.
In the living room, Hikori had Kaika on his shoulders and he, Naoru, and Raimeihi were waiting for them.
"You two are so slow," Hikori whined.
"I'll be getting slower as time goes on," Shiroi warned. "Get used to it."
Hikori made a face as they left the house.
They headed toward the edge of the village, seeing carts and wagons being unloaded as they approached.
"There doesn't seem to be as large of a group this year as there was last year," Naoru said, as they got closer. "That happens though. Sometimes the group will start out large, but the some people will run out of things to trade and head back home while the rest of the group keeps going."
Raimeihi was scoping out what traders had come this year, and grimaced at the sight of a trader who had an unusual choice of trade. "I believe there is one trader who will be doing very poorly here."
"Which one?" Naoru asked. Her husband pointed out the trader, and Naoru made a face of disgust. "A man like that should not be allowed to stay in t his village."
Hiei looked where those two were looking. "And you let Raimeihi stay here?"
Naoru hit Hiei in the head. "This is completely different."
"What are you talking about?" Shiroi asked.
Hiei pointed as he rubbed his head. "Over there," he answered.
Shiroi looked. A demonic looking trade was setting up a rather scruffy looking stand as his quarry stood close by. His quarry was a young woman whom looked no older than Hikori. She was scarcely dressed and her wrists and ankles were in chains. Shiroi seethed with rage, and headed toward the cart.
"Shiroi," Hiei said as he and Raimeihi followed her. "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to get that girl away from that thing," Shiroi answered.
"You might need a little bit of help," Raimeihi said as they approached the trader.
The trader noticed them. "Can I help you?" he asked in an oily voice.
"Your choice of trade is not allowed in our village," Raimeihi said quickly before Shiroi could say anything.
The trader glared at Raimeihi. "I have never heard of such thing in a village."
"Well," Raimeihi said warningly, "Now you have. I suggest you pack up and leave quickly." He whistled loudly.
The trader continued to glare, "I will leave and take my charge with me."
"That's where you're wrong," Raimeihi, said. Behind him, Takken and his group of fighters appeared. They all carried weapons. "The girl will stay here, and I'm afraid it's going to be through our offer."
The trader gulped, but before he could say or anything, Hiei slashed at the girl. The girl flinched, but was surprised when her chains feel away. "You can't do this!" The trader argued.
"Give it up," called another trader. "We want you gone too. You give us traders a bad reputation by coming along with us." Several other traders agreed.
"You heard them," Hiei said as he held his sword up to the trader's nose. "Beat it, before I decide to use this on you."
The traders backed up several feet, and then turned toward the exit of the village. When he'd made it to the edge, he turned around and called, "You have seen the last of me! I'll be back for my charge!" Suddenly a blue staff landed in front of him, the shaft shaking from its impact into the hard ground. The trader yelped, but then blushed when his clothing fell from his body, but in half.
"Oh darn" Hikori said as he landed amongst the traders, "I missed." The other traders laughed. The trader glared and gathered up his clothing. Hikori held up his hand, and his staff shot out of the ground and flew into Hikori's hand. The trader could now see the narrow, sharp blades on the ends of the staff. "I suggest you leave before I try again, and I won't guarantee that I'll miss again."
The trader gulped, and ran down the road and out of sight.
The other traders laughed as he disappeared. Hikori walked over to his parents. "That was fun."
"That was foolish," Shiroi, said as she took off her cloak and draped it over the girl's shoulders. "He could have had a weapon concealed on him."
Hikori rolled his eyes. "I cut his clothes off, anything that would have been concealed in his clothes would have fallen off. If he had something tied to him, then I wouldn't have gone near him."
Shiroi glanced at Hiei, "He gets this from you."
Hiei blinked, "Uh...okay..."
Shiroi shook her head, and then turned to the girl. "I'm sorry, I should introduce myself. My name is Shiroi. The young man holding the staff is my son, Hikori. This is my husband Hiei, and that's Raimeihi."
The girl bowed her head. "My name is Reyna. Thank you for getting me away from him."
"My mom would consider trash like that an 'it'," Hikori said. "Right Dad?" Hiei nodded.
Reyna actually smiled, "Yes, I agree."
"What's going on?" Naoru asked as she approached. "Who is this?"
"This is Reyna," Shiroi answered. "The trader gladly handed her over to us when he found out what would happen to him if he didn't." She turned to Reyna. "This is my mother Naoru, and my daughter Kaika."
Reyna bowed to them, "I can see I family resemblance."
"What was your first clue?" Hikori asked. "The hair?" He smiled.
Reyna smiled back, "No, I thought they looked alike." Everyone started laughing.
"Come on," Naoru said, "The traders will not be finished setting up until tomorrow. Why don't we go in and get our new friend settled?"
Reyna smiled, and they all went back inside.
ooo
Author's Note: Hmm, I wonder how Reyna is going to fit into this story? Hah! Of course I know how she's going to fit, but you don't. If you want to find out you'll have to continue reading...when I post the chapters. Thanks for your patience. Review me and tell me what you think.
