Hiei's Love: Chapter 7

Last chapter we found Hiei does know what guilt is, and that it was somewhat rubbed in by the blunt and aggressive Yukari. Now for chapter seven.

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho. Nor do I own Yukari Kagiri or Yoru Kageno, they are property of their respectable owners. But I do own Zaylana.

Emerald eyes opened, and gazed around a hazy room of white.

What happened? . Where am I? . Why can't I move? Questions floated through the fog-filled mind of the assassin.

"Rest now." She heard a voice and felt a dull pain in her arm as she floated off to sleep.

"HIEI!"

Hiei bolted up in his window, his dream having been disturbing enough to wake him. His harsh breathing slowed to a rasp as he thought back on the dream, still running through his mind.

In his dream, the world was brown-hued, and a pair of eyes, a pair of green piercing eyes appeared and floated in front of him. They were, at first, soft and caring, and a low humming tone came to his ears. Then the eyes became happy, and light laughter swirled around him. They changed again to a sort of arrogant, stubborn glare, daring him, but to what?

He could almost hear a growl as the eyes became angry and defiant. They soon turned doubtful, then frightened, then terrified, and that was when he heard it:

"HIEI!"

That was what had woken Hiei: her scream for him that he could not answer. The dream unnerved him, and he didn't like it. He looked out the window, the sun beginning to pour light into the world as it rose.

Yoru walked down the hall, looking for the short youkai she had tried to hit; she wanted to "talk" to him some more. Instead, however, she found that damn kitsune Kurama. He looked at her with angry eyes, and she glared back. As she walked past, he said something she could not hear, so she faced him.

"What was that, kitsune?" She yelled. Kurama looked back at her and actually smiled.

"Oh, nothing. You wouldn't want to know," He said, and so continued on his way. Yoru ran up to him, grabbed him, and rammed him up against the wall.

"What did you say?" She ground out. He looked into her angry turquoise eyes.

"It was nothing, really. I just said that if you keep on scowling like that, you'll ruin your pretty face," He said, and smiled.

Yoru's grip loosened, and she just gaped at him. Kurama shifted out of her grasp and turned to walk away, but looked back at her. He said, " See the good in people before you seek to kill. You'll make more friends that way."

Yoru just looked at him, and he left. She forgot about her mission to find Hiei, and went to her room, which was scattered with weapons of all kinds. It was a truly amazing collection, but compared to Zaylana's wall of war weapons, it was not much. Still, compared to many other collections, it was impressive. Looking around, she thought about what Kurama had said.

"See the good," She mumbled.

No, there is no good in demons, she thought. But then she thought of the half-demon Zaylana. She was good, but of course that had to be the human side.

I hate demons, thought Yoru, Therefore, I hate myself.

She went to lie on her bed of red silk, and looked up into the crimson canopy. As she dozed into a half-sleep, she mumbled, "I hate all demons."

Green eyes soon appeared in her dream mind, floating on a sea of red. A soft smile joined the eyes, and before she realized who it was, a face was formed. It was a man's face, adorned with a caring smile as rose petals swirled around it. Yoru's eyes snapped open, and she pushed herself up on her bed, the face burning into her mind. She shook her head vigorously.

"What is wrong with me?" She whined before saying flatly, "I need to get out of here."

She got out of bed, looked out the window, and yelled, "What a day to run away from troubles!"

She ran to her door, flung it open, and collided with Kurama. As she fell on her butt, she cried, "Itai!"

Kurama soon joined her on the floor, and both were now in a heap, looking at each other.

"Déjà vu," She whispered before yelling, "You baka!"

Kurama started laughing, and choked out, "Yes, I believe you're right."

Yoru just stared at him in surprise, but the laughter was contagious. Soon her shoulders were quaking with suppressed laughter, which burst forth to join Kurama's. They carried on like this for a while, until.

"What the Hell happened here?" Yukari yelled over their laughter. The two of them stopped to look at her. She had a small bump on her head, which sparked their laughter anew, and made them laugh even harder. Soon both were collapsed on the floor, laughing and crying because it hurt to laugh so much.

"You two are nuts," Yukari said, confused, and turned to leave the two laughing idiots to themselves.

After a while, their laughter died, and Kurama got up and helped Yoru to her feet. He said, with a small laugh, "Yoru, I apologize for hitting you earlier yesterday."

"That's okay," Yoru replied, "I'm sort of sorry for trying to kill you, but I'm still not sure if I like you or not. I still hate demons, and that includes you."

Kurama's smile turned sad. "Hate destroys the soul. And yes, some demons do have souls, and you are one of them. Take your time. One day you'll find that you no longer hate yourself or others."

Yoru just shook her head. "Look, I've got to go. I've spent too much time chatting. Later." She ran off down the hall.

"So, Kurama, what do you think of Yoru?" Hiei mimicked from a window high above.

Kurama laughed, remembering that he had said that to Hiei about Zaylana. He said, "I think she's an okay person. She's still a little rude for my taste, but I don't entirely dislike her."

Hiei turned to jump out the window.

"Hiei, how's Zaylana doing? I know you went to see her," Kurama said seriously.

Hiei continued to look out the window. "She's alive, if that's what you mean."

That was all he said before jumping away.
