Hiei's Dare
Chapter 21:You'll Just Have To Play By My Rules
June 14, 2003

A/N: Summer is here and more time to write. I'm sorry that it's taken so long. I had my Senior Board to finish as well as other personal obligations and then at the last minute I found myself moving from my dad's house to my moms (my parents are divorced for those who don't understand that). Anyway enough of my boring life and lets get to the good stuff. I'll try to make this an extra long chapter so that your wait won't be in vain.
Oh and just for reference. In the English version of YuYu, Kurama's stepbrother's name was changed to Kokoda. I think I like Suichi better.
************************************************************** **********
The end of the school day couldn't end quickly enough for Yusuke. Hiei and he had been going back to school for a week and it was as boring as ever. Yusuke wanted to go sit on the roof but couldn't because he had to watch Hiei. He sighed as he looked over at Hiei. He seemed to be engrossed in the lecture Mr. Iwamoto was giving.
That was the other weird thing of the day. They had walked into the classroom to find the two most hated teachers in the school had returned. The good thing was that they were so scared after the attack that they wouldn't let anyone get near them, let alone touch them. Needless to say their classes were getting a refreshing release from the teachers they knew as pains.
Yusuke yawned and looked back down at his notebook. He had been drawing goofy pictures instead of taking notes. He looked up at the clock to see that the bell would ring in a minute. Yusuke wanted to yell when it did. Iwamoto was the last teacher he had so he could go home after this.
“Now don't forget class. Your reports on The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter are due next class. Dismissed.”
(A/N: I know that's an odd book to pick, but there really is a book called that. I have to give credit to the Author, who I don't know the name of, and the 2nd Inu-Yasha movie for the title).
Yusuke got out of the classroom so fast that he almost forgot about Hiei. He stopped and leaned up against the wall in the hallway. When Hiei didn't come out of the classroom, Yusuke began to worry. He barely stuck his head into the room only to see Iwamoto at his desk.
“What do you want Urameshi?”
“I didn't see my cousin come out of the classroom so I came to see if he was still here.”
“Well he's not so you can leave. I have things to do.”
Yusuke turned and ran out of the classroom. He had to find Hiei before there was a repeat occurrence of a few days ago. He ran till he found Keiko and Kuwabara.
“Have either of you seen Hiei?” he asked quickly.
“I haven't seen him since class ended,” Keiko replied.
“Did he take off again Urameshi?” Kuwabara asked.
Yusuke nodded.
“Yeah, help me find him.”
“Let's split up. Yusuke, check your usual places to hide and the third and fourth floors. I'll check the first and second floors. Kuwabara go outside and see if he's on the grounds. We'll meet back here in a half hour,” Keiko said.
Yusuke and Kuwabara nodded. The three of them split up and began the search for their friend.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~
Yusuke ran up the stairs to the roof. It was the last place on his list. If Hiei wasn't on the roof he had to hope Kuwabara or Keiko had found Hiei. He slammed the door open and winced as the sunlight blinded him. When his eyes adjusted he looked to see Hiei standing next to the fence. He was overlooking the landscape.
“Hiei, what are you doing?” Yusuke yelled.
Hiei turned to look at him.
“Hn, like it's any of your business detective,” Hiei replied and then turned back to face the sunset.
“The hell it isn't. You're my responsibility.”
“I've been here the whole time. I don't need a babysitter,” Hiei said, not turning around to face Yusuke.
“The hell it isn't. You're my responsibility.”
“I've been here the whole time. I don't need a babysitter,” Hiei said, not turning around to face Yusuke.
“But you didn't tell me you were coming up here. I've spent the last half-hour looking for you. The least you could have done is told me, especially after what happened last week.”
“It won't happen again.”
“The hell it won't. It could happen again.”
“The hell it won't. It could happen again.”
Hiei didn't turn to face him. He didn't even respond to Yusuke's comment.
“Look Hiei,” Yusuke said with a calm voice, “You're going to half to play by my rules from now on.”
“Or what?”
“Or maybe it's time to turn you over to Koenma. His father would certainly be happy to have you in his grasp.”
This made Hiei snap around. His face was pale and he wasn't happy.
“You wouldn't dare.”
“Try me, Hiei. I've had trouble up over my head since you took that stupid bet and I've been trying to help you, but you won't let me. As it is, you may be taken by Koenma's father anyway.”
Hiei didn't respond but he scowled.
“Now Hiei, are you going to play by my rules or are we heading to Spirit World. And trust me, if you decide your coming home with me you better mean it. One more slip up and you'll be in Spirit World faster than you can say no to stop me.”
Hiei looked away. Yusuke knew Hiei was mad at him. Hiei was physically shaking with furry. Yusuke was angry too, but if this was how it was going to be than this is what he had to do. The silence was soon interrupted by Kuwabara's voice.
“Urameshi, where have you...”
Kuwabara stopped when he saw what was going on. Keiko came out from behind him and also stopped when she saw Hiei and Yusuke. Yusuke ignored them both.
“I'm waiting for you answer, Hiei.”
“I'm thinking,” Hiei growled back.
“You have one minute before I drag you to Spirit World.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~
Hiei look away again.
If I go to Spirit World than I'm dead, but if I stay with Yusuke I have to follow his every rule. I hate that. Damn it, but what choice do I have.
“Your minute is up, Hiei.”
“I'll stay. I'll play by your rules,” Hiei whispered in defeat.
