Chapter 14
Almost as soon as Hiei walked into the room, he knew things weren't good.
"Chimera is gone?" Naoru asked. She already knew the answer.
"Yes," Hiei answered as he came in. He went over and sat down next to where Shiroi lay. The woman appeared to be unconscious. "How is she?"
"She's been unconscious since Chimera came," Naoru answered. "Are you feeling anything?"
Hiei nodded, "It impaired my fighting abilities. It's not as bad as I was expecting it, but I'm sure it's not done yet."
Naoru shook her head, "No, it's not. She is far enough along to where if she were at full strength and in good health she would be able to deliver it without difficulty. But the condition she is in now, delivering at this point will kill her. I'm glad she's unconscious right now. It dulls some of the pain that you both feel, and allows her labor to continue without prohibition." She looked up as everyone else came in.
"I hear she is progressing," Kurama said as everyone came in and situated them selves.
"Basically," Naoru answered as Hikori entered. "Are you all right?" she asked him.
Hikori nodded, "I'm fine," he answered, and went and sat next to his father.
For the next several hours they waited. Shiroi regained consciousness after they had been there for an hour. It was hard to watch the ordeal. Even with half of the pain going to Hiei, Shiroi was still in agony. Hiei wasn't much better, but he still had much easier than Shiroi.
After a time, Hikori was sent outside. Hikori didn't want to leave, but everyone thought it would be better for him not to see what may happen. He wasn't the only one sent out, Mitsuki was sent out with him.
"You're mom's going to be just fine," Mitsuki said, trying to sound positive. "She has what, four healers in there? There's no way that with all those healers that she's going to die."
"Thanks for the thought Mitsuki," Hikori said. "I really don't know how this is going to turn out." He picked his staff that had been leaning against the wall and jumped off the walkway.
Mitsuki watched him practice, knowing that the concentration kept his mind off of Shiroi. She knew he had never used a staff before, and watching him try his own moves was rather interesting. By the time Keiko came out to check on them, Mitsuki was sure how much time had passed.
"How long have we been out here?" Mitsuki asked as Hikori approached.
"Just over an hour," Keiko answered. She looked down at Hikori. "I know you want to see how your mother is doing Hikori, but I'm afraid neither of you can come back in yet."
"Can you at least tell me?" Hikori asked. "I want to know at least something, anything you can tell me."
Keiko sighed, "She could be ready at anytime. Either way, Naoru isn't sure what the outcome will be. I'm sorry, that's all I can tell you."
"That's all they need to know."
The three of them looked up to see the teenage Koenma walking toward them.
"Koenma," Keiko said. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here for several reasons," Koenma answered. "One reason is to talk to Hikori." He turned to the boy, "You do know what you became, don't you?"
Hikori shook his head, "All I knew was that I could beat Chimera."
Koenma sighed. "You became a white-haired demon, Hikori."
Hikori gulped, "Oh. Is that bad?"
"Under normal circumstance, yes," Koenma answered. "And this is why I came to talk to you." He sat down next to Keiko. "You know that whenever a white-haired demon is born it is dispensed with, correct?"
Hikori nodded.
"Seeing that you weren't born one," Koenma continued, "There's no reason to jump to conclusions, yet."
"Yet?" Hikori asked.
"As long as there is someone around to train you to control your powers," Koenma continued, "There's no reason for anyone to be concerned."
Hikori nodded, "Okay."
"But," Koenma added, "If you lose control, even once, there will be consequences."
Hikori gulped, but nodded. "I understand."
"Good," Koenma said, "That's one thing out of the way."
"What else do you have to do?" Keiko asked.
"We'll see," Koenma answered. "It depends on how things end." Suddenly screams came from the room, both male and female. Shiziru came out of the room as Koenma and Keiko got to their feet.
"So much pain," Shiziru said, "I couldn't stay in there." She looked up and saw Koenma, "What are you doing here?"
"We'll find out soon," Koenma answered as he grabbed Hikori's shoulders as the young man tried to go back into the room.
"You don't want to go in there Hikori," Shiziru said. "Even your father's in agony. You wouldn't be able to stay in there for a minute." Hikori pulled against Koenma once, but he couldn't get loose. "Stubborn, just like your dad."
"Doesn't sound like he's being very stubborn now," Keiko said, hearing the screams.
"It shouldn't be long now," Koenma said.
"What do you mean?" Mitsuki asked.
"It'll all be over very soon," Koenma answered. "It won't last much longer now."
The five of them stood there and listened to the screams. After several long minutes, the screaming stopped. The only sound piercing the silence was the quiet sound of a newborn's cries.
"Like I said," Koenma said as Hikori pulled out of his gripped and yanked open the door. Hikori stopped as soon as the door was open. The sense of lose was pouring out of the room. "I knew it," Koenma whispered.
Hikori took a hesitant step into the room. "Dad?" he asked his father. "What happened?"
Hiei didn't answer. He sat on the floor, holding Shiroi like he had been when she had been going through her labor. His eyes were veiled in the shadows.
Hikori looked around at everyone else. Their eyes were also veiled in shadows. He began to realize what had happened, and he didn't want to believe it. "No," he shook his head. "It can't be."
"She's gone Hikori," Hiei whispered suddenly. His voice sounded different; sounded like nothing that any of them had ever heard before.
Kurama got up as Hikori started to come in. "No," Hikori argued as Kurama started to take him outside. Kurama refused to meet his eyes as he continued to force Hikori out of the room. Hikori struggled against Kurama's hold. "You can't keep me out again!" Hikori yelled. "You can't do this to me, I deserve to be allowed in!"
"Hikori!" Kurama hissed as he hauled Hikori out of the room. "There isn't anything you can." He met the young man's eyes, not ashamed of the tears he shed. "There's no point of you going inside. Remember Shiroi when she was alive, not how she looks now."
Hikori shook his head, still refusing to believe it. He looked back toward the room as tears began to stream from his eyes. Denial of this wasn't lasting long. The young man feel to his knees. "I got rid of Chimera, and after that I thought everything was going to be okay." Kurama knelt down next to him. "I thought everything would go back to normal, everything would be okay."
"I thought I felt bad when Shiroi left us the first time," Keiko said through her own tears. She held Mitsuki as the girl cried her own tears. "Now she's leaving again, and this time she's not coming back."
Koenma walked into the room, "I came here to take Shiroi's body away."
Hiei gripped Shiroi's body tighter as Yuseke got in front of Koenma. "You think you can just come in here and take her away?" Yuseke asked.
"I have my reasons for doing this Yuseke," Koenma answered. "You'll find out why later." He looked down at Hiei. "I need to take her now Hiei." He knelt down next to them. "It's for good reason Hiei, I can assure you. The only reason I won't tell you straight out is because I have been forbidden by my father to tell you."
"If that's the case then," Yuseke said as he came up behind Hiei and bent down. "Come on Hiei. There's nothing you can do for her right now. You have another person to take care of now." To his surprise, Hiei loosened his hold around Shiroi, and Koenma picked up the woman's body.
"I'm sorry for your lose," Koenma said. "I can't possibly describe it to you. But I can tell you one thing: everything is going to be all right." He turned and headed out the door. Kuwabara and Raimeihi followed him out. As Koenma reached the end of the walkway and stepped down, he heard the sounds of footsteps behind him. He turned around to see Hiei standing the doorway, Yuseke semi-supporting him from behind. "So he did come out."
"Koenma you had better have a good reason for taking Shiroi!" Kuwabara yelled.
"I've said it before Kuwabara," Koenma said. "I can't tell you why I'm taking her, but it is for a good cause." The glowing light of transportation surrounded him.
"I never thought I would see this happen," Botan said.
The glowing light brightened. Just as Koenma vanished, Hiei jerked out of Yuseke's grip. He ran too where Koenma had been standing less than a second before. He landed there and raised his head to the sky. "SHIROI!" he shouted, his tears shining in the moonlight.
