Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Hiei's (Attempt at) Revenge ❯ Doors ( Chapter 6 )

Hiei grunted, sat up, and then looked around before he flopped back down again. His head hurt, his hands hurt, his legs hurt, his toes hurt ...

Hiei hurt.

No more jumping off of towers for me for a long time ... He wriggling his hurt toes and fingers, and deduced that nothing was broken. Just sore. Everything just plain hurt.

His guts even seemed to sing out in pain.

But there was something a bit odd to his pain, and Hiei looked over at his left arm. Right where it had been severed by Shigure in their fight ... it hurt right there - and where Shigure had sliced open his stomach, it hurt. He thought on that for as long as he could. Was there something special about that? Was Shigure talking to him in some way? If so, wouldn't his Jagan be hurting too ...?

Yet, it didn't hurt, and for a while, he laid there longer.

He exhaled hard, and sat up again, slower than the last time. Maybe there was something about that fight that reminded him of the fight with the Mary Sue. For the life of him, he couldn't remember what that might have been though. Hiei got up to his feet. (Finally.)

Looking up, he said, "Just shut the hell up. I'm sick of you."

(Just saying. You've been laying there for a long time.)

"No fucking duh! I've just been in a fight that left even my asscrack hurting!"

(That was a lovely visual.)

He muttered angrily to himself, and stalked away. He didn't like talking to the author-person anyway. Whoever it was didn't make a whole lot sense.

(... Uh, wrong way, dude.)

Hiei stopped, and looked around at the sky, "What do you mean? The damned tower is gone, and now I've got nothing to do now. Might as well go recuperate."

(Uh, sorry, I know that you must be tired and all, but you got to finish your mission or ... well, this wouldn't be much of a story, I guess.)

"Mission," he said slowly, and then spat. "What mission?"

(Remember PERSON THAT YOU LOVE?)

"... Should I? Love isn't meant for people like me," he started to walk away.

(Or people like THAT PERSON?)

The Jaganshi stopped again, and shouted at the sky, "Why does it matter anyway!? I'm sick of this! I haven't heard THAT PERSON's name in so long, I think I've forgotten it! Your stupid, fucking bleeps-!" He ceased his next words, and collapsed down to the ground, sitting on it, and cradling his bleeding head, "Doesn't make any sense ... None of it. I tore down the stupid tower. Everything should be fine now."

(Actually ...)

His eyes widened, "What? ... What!? Tell me what's going on!"

(That was just a tower full of Mary Sues, Hiei, and ... well, it was a tower, and the Sues were Sues. They signify nothing. The fan fics are still around, and there are still authoresses around making even more Mary Sues, and soon the tower will come back, and the other towers dotting the globe will fill up till bursting.)

"'Other ... towers?'"

(Fuck, I'm sorry, Hiei. Should've never started writing. Then you wouldn't be in such a big mess.)

"So stop writing!"

(I could do that, but then your world would be left like this.)

"... What about Yukina?"

(She'll be sweeping steps.)

"And Yuusuke and Kurama ...? Oh, shit! I never even ran into Kuwabara!"

(Yuusuke's acting more like Kuwabara as we speak, and getting in a shitload of trouble with Keiko since he's hitting on everything with two legs. Kurama's holding a search party for you - he thinks you're hiding under his bed for some reason. Kuwabara ... is now an invalid. Those stories hit him pretty hard. He can barely even drool.)

Hiei stared down at his hands, "Is ... Genkai still okay?"

(She's fine. Playing a new DBZ game on her Game Boy Advance actually, but you know that she has to leave that house sometime to get groceries or something.)

"Kurama's mother?"

(Stalking the halls with an axe. Kind of reminds me of Ranma's mom really ...)

"Who?"

(... Forget I said that! So ... uh, yeah, you got to do your mission now, Hiei.)

"I don't remember my damned mission anymore!"

(... What about PERSON THAT YOU LOVE?)

Hiei shook his head hard, "I don't even think that I got the name right in my head anymore. I'm not even aloud to think it! How the hell am I supposed to go around with those fucking bleeps in my head and remember a simple name!?"

(... Shit. Just a moment. I'll be right there.)

Blinking in confusion, Hiei said, "Hey ... what? What does that mean?" When he got no answer, he burst to his feet, and scowled up at the sky, "What are you doing!?"

Then the ground shook, and he looked down in shock.

"Dude," said a voice from under the random trap door, "you look small, but you're heavy. Get off."

Perturbed, Hiei backed off of the trap door which then opened, and out stepped a young woman with big blue eyes and unruly blonde hair worn in a messy ponytail. She was wearing a rust-colored tank top that said 'Cogito, ergo sum, bitch!' in a silver script.

He looked at the description, and raised an eyebrow, "Is that true?"

"About half of it. Messed with a random generator I found. I didn't feel right describing myself ... Anyway! So you forgot THAT PERSON's name?"

"I ... think so," he said uneasily - not too trusting of an author near him. "It's like I remember, but it's really a word that I see out of the corner of my eye ..."

"Well, shit," she leaned against the still open door. "Uh ..."

"Nice to know that you're on top of things," he snorted.

"Ah, hush, puppy, I'm trying to help," she let the door fall to slam shut. Her hands went to her hips, and she paced around the trap door, looking down at it as if it might disappear. "Do you remember THAT PERSON's face?"

Hiei thought for a moment, taking a few steps back from the author just to make sure, "... I think so. Those cheap bleeps messed me up when I tried to describe THAT PERSON to the jeweler."

"... Hey, at least you still love THAT PERSON. Those bleeps wouldn't be there otherwise."

"Maybe ..."

"Uh, I'm the author. There aren't any 'maybe's with me."

He gave her an exasperated look, "Why do you make it sound so simple?"

"Because it is as simple at that"

"Love isn't supposed to be that simple!"

She pulled out her pocket dictionary, "'A deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness.' There is no kinship with you and THAT PERSON, and ... attractive qualities maybe, but I'm not so sure on that one. As for that whole sense of underlying oneness, I think that most definitely exists ... So maybe it's not so simple, but it's true. You love THAT PERSON."

"I ... love her ..." His eyes widened, "You-! But ...! What about the bleeps? Why did you take them away?"

"You already knew that, Hiei. Why tell me something that we both already know?" The author opened the trap door up, and went back inside, saying, "Oh, and Hiei?"

"Yeah?"

"I didn't create those bleeps."

"Huh!?" He grabbed the door to make it stop from closing, and making her raise an eyebrow at him, "If you didn't make them, who did?"

"I didn't create them. Ignorance did. Those authors that created those stories had such a hatred for your lover, they did the only thing that they could do to affect you. Your Jagan really is a remarkable tool ..."

"So they created those bleeps to cover over my thoughts and voice?"

"They used the majority of their powers to make those bleeps, but now you're free of them. Now let the door go. I have a lovely DBZ lemon that involves gender bendering that I must write after I finish this up."

"..." He shuddered, and let the door go, backing away.

The trap door clicked shut, and then there was silence for a long time.

Hiei opened his mouth to try saying his love's name, "..."

From FanFiction:

Kohaku Hoshi: Toes.

RoninsOath: Hiei will eat whoever he wants to eat. XP Actually the twitch was for ... something else. Thanks for another review!

HieiFan666: Darling, next time you want to judge someone, get some good solid evidence for yourself other than going on what others tell you. You haven't seen the last saga? Then go see it, or buy it since Funi's an ass. Hiei went willingly into Mukuro's arms. He lost the fight, and a tired boyo searched for her arms - and if he passed out, it was after falling into her arms. I don't think anyone was hitting on anyone in YYH other than Yuusuke on Keiko.

Jasmemini: ^-^ Mwah. Thank you!

Crimson Dreamer: Nah, I like the rants. I just hope someone got something out of my own rant.

Kylarkallana: O.o; What a name you got going there, hun ... ^^ Anyway, thanks for the review!

The end is in sight! Hiei goes to find PERSON THAT HE LOVES! Are the bleeps still in effect or was that just a one time thing for our poor hero?
