Chapter 17
After dinner, Shiroi and Hiei went to their room. It had been a very long day.
“Let's see,” Shiroi said as she reclined against her pillows, “What has happened today?” She held up her hand and began ticking off on her fingers, “Hikori woke up, he has paralysis issues, he got raped, Raimeihi teased him, I blew up the desert plains, had a snow fight with you, Hikori accused himself of being a monster,” she thought for a second, “Am I missing anything?”
“Not at the moment,” Hiei answered as he sat next to her. “But,” he reached inside his coat, “you might be able to add something to that list when I'm done.”
“Done?” Shiroi asked.
Hiei pulled his tear pendent out and held it out to Shiroi, not really looking at her. “I want you to have this.”
Shiroi looked at the pendent. “But, that's your hiru stone, the one that you got from your mother. I can't take that from you.”
Hiei sighed. “Why not?”
“It's the only thing you have of your mother, your only connection. It's too important for me to have.”
Hiei looked at her, “I'd throw this pendent away if it meant keeping you, Hikori, or Kaika. That's where this thing sits on the importance list.” He held it out to her.
Shiroi took it and looked at it. “I just don't feel like I'm worthy enough to have it.”
Hiei felt like ripping his hair out of his head. “If I didn't have a sister from the ice apparitions, I would have killed all of them a long time ago, that's where the rest of them sit with me. You're more then worthy to carry it, probably more then me.”
Shiroi sighed, “Why are you giving this to me? I thought you would give it to Hikori or Kaika when they came of age.”
Hiei smirked, “So you did know that I had it. I was considering giving it to Hikori, but he's easy enough to find.”
“Find?”
“Find,” Hiei answered. “That's why I'm giving it to you. Not only does it emit my energy, over time it will also start to emit your energy. I'll always be able to find you if you wear it. I've been thinking about giving it to you since you were brought back.”
“It took you four years to decide that?” Shiroi asked.
Hiei shrugged, “I blame Kaika, she was on my mind first, always needing something.” He stretched and put his hands behind his head.
“Hmm,” Shiroi mused. “May I change the cord?”
“I don't care,” Hiei answered, eyes closed.
Shiroi carefully pulled the cord out, and then, hold the pendent up with her energy, she created a chain out of diamond and ice to hold it. Once it was finished, she put it on. When she finished, Hiei rolled over and stood over her and his hands and knees.
“I didn't get to finish something earlier,” he said, and kissed her.
Shiroi giggled and used her spirit power to turn out the lights and lock the door.
ooo
Later that night, Shiroi tossed and turned in her sleep. In her dreams, which weren't dreams at all, but nightmares. She was being tortured and raped by something that always seemed to look like her father, but it would morph using a black, fire like source, becoming other men she knew.
The pain was so real, and the laughter so cruel and cold. The thing ripped her baby from her body, holding the bloody form in black, slithering tentacles. It ate it, becoming the face of her father again, with blood dripping from his mouth. He laughed as he raped her again.
“Shiroi,” he said, his face turning into Hiei's. The pain continued, and still it called out her name.
“No!” She screamed, sitting up in bed.
“Shiroi?” came Hiei's voice. But her mind wasn't that of her normal self. Her mind was when she was fourteen years old, terrified of men and demons, and uncontrolled power. She sensed the male demon close to her, too close. She blasted him with uncontrolled wind and spirit power, sending him through the wall and partially through the next.
Naoru and Raimeihi were awakened by the crashing, and ran out of their room to see Hiei slowly pulling himself out of the remains of the wall.
“Hiei,” Naoru went to him. “What happened?” As she spoke, Raimeihi went to the door and started to walk into the room.
Hiei saw Raimeihi walk in. “Don't-!” he called, but he wasn't fast enough. Raimeihi was blown out of the room and smashed into the fireplace in the living room.
Hikori and Kaika came running out their rooms. “What's happening?” Hikori asked as he went to Raimeihi.
“Something's wrong with your mother,” Raimeihi answered hoarsely. He knew he had broken ribs. “She sent your father through their bedroom wall and partway through the next. Obviously she sent me into the first place. I'm glad we didn't have it going.” He gritted his teeth as he tried to sit up. “Where's Kaika?”
Hikori looked around. “Kaika no!” he yelled as the little girl went in to her mother's room.
“Kaika don't go in there!” Naoru yelled. The little girl ignored her.
“K…Kaika,” Hiei gasped. The wind was knocked out of him. He had broken ribs and it felt like his left arm was broken.
Kaika approached her mother. The woman was sitting on her bed, head down, and had a white aura glowing around her. “Mama?” Kaika asked tentatively. She reached out to touch her mother's hand.
“Don't touch her!” Hiei gasped, but again he was too late.
Kaika's fingertips touched Shiroi's hand. Shiroi, feeling the contact and not being in a normal state of mind, was only on the offensive. She zapped the little girl with several hundred volts of electricity.
Kaika screamed as she was hit and sent backward out of the room. Hiei managed to get himself up and leapt, painfully, and caught Kaika before she hit the wall. The force of catching her sent him into the wall. Ribs shards punctured, and Hiei coughed up blood. The sent of blood and burned skin filled the air.
“Kaika!” Naoru exclaimed as she slipped over, trying not to draw Shiroi's attention. “We have to get out of here,” she whispered. “It's not safe to stay here.”
Hiei grunted in reply. “Take Kaika,” he gasped. The woman carefully took the little girl, and he got painfully to his feet. -Hikori, - he sent. -Get yourself and Raimeihi out of here. - He got a touch of a reply, and he and Naoru quietly made their way away from the room out of the house.
“What happened to Kaika?” Hikori asked when they approached.
Hiei groaned as he lowered himself to the ground. He glanced at Naoru, wanting her to answer.
“Shiroi shocked her with several hundred volts of electricity,” she answered. “She has some bad burns from what I can see, and smell…”
Hikori gulped and approached his little sister.
“What about Shiroi?” Raimeihi asked.
“She's still in the house,” Naoru answered. “She's too dangerous to be close to. I actually want to get a little farther away, just in case.”
Raimeihi nodded, and helped to move everyone further away from the house.
“What happened to Mom?” Hikori asked Hiei.
“I woke her up from a nightmare,” Hiei answered hoarsely, “but her mind wasn't there. It's like she's lost herself, and only the fear and power remains.”
“How do we bring her back?”
“If I knew, I would have done it already.”
Hikori sighed and looked back at the house. “I wonder what she's doing in there?”
“Hopefully not destroying anything,” Raimeihi said, and then the house blew up.
Naoru threw up a shield just in time. “You just had to say that did you?”
“You think I wanted that to happen?” Raimeihi asked.
“Why would Mom blow up the house?” Hikori asked.
“I doubt she knows what she's doing,” Naoru answered. “Her mind seems to be enveloped by fear. I doubt she can see or hear anything. Just sense energies.”
“I'd look for her,” Hiei said, “but I know that if I do she'll sense me. She could very well trace my energies and send killing blow in our direction.” He looked down at Kaika. The little girl was unconscious, which was a good thing. If the little girl had been awake, she would be in agony.
“Let's get to Elder Sansa's house,” Naoru said. “I have work to do.”

A/N: Short chapter, I just wanted to finish it. I've had the dream idea for a while. If there are any typos that both the computer I and missed, I'm sorry. My old computer(which really wasn't that old in my opinion) had to be retired because the logic board died and it was pointless to get it fixed. So I now have a new computer, and I need to get used to the new keyboard. (All of my computers, which have only been three in total, are laptops). Review me and tell me what you think!
