Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Hiei One Half ❯ Chapter 9

"Ah!" A piercing scream echoed through the air of the evening. Yusuke and the rest went running towards the yell. What they found as they went around a city block and into a dark alley disturbed them greatly, um… not really. On the ground laid Ayami, appearing paralyzed by something and drool started to over flow from her mouth. In the corner of the alley was Miroshi, doing the chicken dance and doing it quite well.

"Okay…so, where the hell is Kurama?" Yusuke said as he scanned the alley.

"Who's Kurama?" Little Shuichi looked at him with confusion.

"Well… it's…no one, just a person I know…We should be search for your brother." Yusuke said he tried to think of a logical excuse. A powerful energy flickered through the air. Yusuke and Kuwabara grew tense and directed their sight to the top the building. Pure surprise was all they could feel as they seen the moonlight outlining the shape of a fox demon. The fox demon gave them a sly smile as he jumped on another building and continued on into the night.

"Keiko, Yukina, Why don't you take Shuichi home, it's getting kinda of late for him to be out. And me and Kuwabara will keep looking?" Yusuke said with a stern tone that Keiko recognized that something serious was going to happen. Shuichi could be heard protesting the idea. Keiko put a hand on Shuichi's shoulder and said, "This is one of those rare occasions that Yusuke is right about, it's too late for a boy of your age to be out."

"You sound just like my mom." Shuichi said as he gave in and guided Yukina and Keiko to his house.

Elsewhere, Hiei was standing on top of a roof and looking down into a large studio window, the people inside caught her eye. They were gliding across the floor with so much grace she which is unexpected from a human. Hiei watched as each preformed a different move across the tilted floor.

Abruptly, a pair of hands wrapped around Hiei's waist and dragged her into an embrace.

"Miss me?" A masculine voice questioned.

Hiei twisted her head up and was met with golden eyes. Long silvery hair swayed genteelly in the breeze. The person started to run his finger through Hiei's black hair while softly blowing in her ear. There was smoldering desire in his touch, and he waited for Hiei's cold resistance to melt underneath the heated touch.

"Kurama…" Hiei said barely above a whisper.

"Yes, Hiei…" Kurama said in a seductive voice.

"Will you stop touching me?" Hiei's voice rose. Kurama frowned slightly at the reaction he got. "Tell me, what are those people doing?" Hiei pointed at the window.

Kurama moved closer to the ledge of the roof and peered into the window.

"They're standing." Kuruma said in a dull tone.

"No, what were they doing before? The part, when they were walking on their toes." Hiei grew more irritated with the conversation. Kurama gave her the look that he still didn't comprehend. Hiei let out a sigh and walked out to the middle of the roof. Kurama watched with curiosity as Hiei spread her arms out and position her legs in an L shape. Then Hiei began to pirouette across the rooftop in wide, sweeping circles.

Somewhere during this time, Kurama remember an American commercial for a credit card that fitted this situation perfectly.

There something you can buy like:

The sweet taste of Candy coating your mouth - 50 cents

Two scoops of hot caramel Ice Cream- 4 dollars and 39 cents

Watching Hiei dancing across a rooftop…priceless.

(authoress note: can I get any stupider? Answer is yes.)

Hiei stopped, with a slight blush across her face, as her new human body started to feel…embarrassed. And there was Kurama trying to withhold his laughter as Hiei gave him the evil eye.

"It's a human dance called ballet." Kurama said as he was trying to keep a straight face.

"What purpose does it serve?"

"They do it for entertainment."

"It's not for a ritual but for pleasure." Kurama nodded his head yes at Hiei's statement.

"What a ridiculous waste of time."

"I wouldn't say that. There are dances that are quite enjoyable to perform." Hiei didn't get the subtitle meaning of Kurama words as he slowly approached. One thing Hiei, did get, was that it would be a long night.
