Chapter 20
"Please Nana?"
"I don't think so Shiroi."
Hiei smirk. He was listening outside the door of the room where Shiroi was supposed to be recovering, but the woman wanted to go to the festival. She had told the others to go ahead, and they had surprisingly done so, and right now she was begging Nana to go.
"I really don't think it's a good idea Shiroi," Nana said.
"It's not that bad," Shiroi said. She was right of course; nothing had been as bad as the wound she had gotten just before Hiei had killed her father. Compared to that, this wound was merely a scratch, felt like one too.
"Not that bad?" Nana asked, "Shiroi, you have a slice in you shoulder three inches deep."
"That's really not the worst she's had," Hiei finally felt like cutting in. "She used to have a wound that had gone straight through her, and she still went to the carnival that the town was holding, she did fine."
Shiroi smiled at Hiei, and turned back to Nana, "Please?"
Nana sighed, and glared at Hiei. "Well, all right, but I don't want you leaving Hiei's side. If the wound starts bother her," she said to Hiei, "bring her back."
Hiei only shrugged. Even if the wound bothered her, Shiroi wouldn't say anything, he knew that for a fact.
Nana got to her feet, "Well, lets leave her a lone so she can dress." She motion Hiei out, "Shoo, give her some privacy."
Hiei smirked and walked out of the room.

Twenty minutes later, Shiroi and Hiei were leaving Nana's place.
"Remember what I said," Nana told Shiroi, "Don't leave Hiei's side until you find your friends, and stick with them." She turned to Hiei, "If I find out she left you sight, I'll find some way to beat you."
Hiei smirked at the old woman, "Yeah, sure."
"Come on Hiei," Shiroi said as she started pushing him along. "Bye Nana, see you later."
They walked down the road in silence, but Hiei knew that Shiroi was extremely excited. She was wearing the same outfit she had worn to the carnival in the human world, the same one that Keiko had repaired for her.
Finally they reached the festival area. It looked similar to the carnival set up back in the human world, but there were a few ritual and dance rings set of the sides along with the various stands.
Shiroi was so excited, but she knew Hiei wouldn't let her leave his side, so she had to be patient. She wondered where everyone else was, and then noticed someone in one of the booths.
"Tana," she said as she stopped.
Tana smiled at her, "Hello Shiroi. I heard what happened, are you okay?"
Shiroi nodded, "I've had worse."
"Don't a know it," Hiei muttered
"So what are you doing?" Shiroi asked Tana as she surveyed the booth's contents. It was full of hand carved figures of animals, charms, wind chimes, and a few flutes. "This must've taken months to make."
"My husband helps," Tana, said. "It's what we do in our spare time."
"How much spare time do you have?" Shiroi asked. "From the looks of it, you must've had a lot to be able to have done all of this."
Tana smiled, "Enough, but these aren't very good. Many of the ones we were hoping to have here tonight still aren't finished, so we had to make do with these."
Shiroi surveyed the creations a little more, "Maybe I'll get one, but right know we're trying to find the rest of our group. Have you seen them?"
Tana nodded, "They went down the way. They're probably down where the live music and dancing is."
"On no," Hiei muttered, "Kuwabara and Yuseke are probably making fools out of themselves."
Shiroi smiled, "Well, if they are, I'll make it so they feel that way." She turned back to Tana, "See you later then?"
"I hope so," Tana answered as the two walked off.
As they walked pass the booths, Shiroi looked at what each held. Many had spices and herbs, some had tools, a few had clothing, but only handful had pleasant objects like the ones Tana was selling.
Shiroi spotted a booth that had a wind chime that she knew Genkai would love. "Should I get now or wait?" she asked Hiei.
The demon shrugged, "It's up to you. Who knows if it'll be there when you come back if you don't get it?"
Shiroi sighed, "I know." She gave in and bought it right away.
They headed off again; now able to hear the music the others were probably at.
"Do I really want to see this?" Hiei asked as they approached.
Shiroi could see the dancers, and none of them were Yuseke and Kuwabara. "It's safe to look," she said. "None of them are Yuseke and Kuwabara.
At her words, the two humans appeared in the dance ring.
"I take that back," Shiroi groaned and Hiei flinched at the sight.
Kurama and Botan appeared away from the crowed, pretending that they didn't know the two, and spotted them.
"So you convinced Nana to let you go?" Botan asked.
Shiroi nodded, "Hiei helped, a little."
"Why do Yuseke and Kuwabara always have to make fools of themselves every time we go somewhere?" Hiei asked.
Kurama shrugged, "Maybe it's a human, thing, and I'm glad that was one thing I didn't pick up."
"What did you get?" Botan asked Shiroi.
"A wind chime I thought Genkai would like," Shiroi answered.
Finally the music ended for the dance and Yuseke and Kuwabara came over.
"Finally got to come out?" Yuseke asked, slightly out of breath from dancing.
Shiroi nodded, "And hopefully I won't have to leave early."
They walked around the festival, watching more dancing and a few story enactments. When they reached the booths again, they stopped more often so everyone could get a better look at each one's contents.
Yuseke and Kuwabara dared each other to a few games, both of them losing, especially when Shiroi joined in to show them how the games really worked.
"Beaten by a girl," Yuseke muttered as they walked on.
"Meaning?" Hiei asked warningly.
"Nothing at all," Yuseke replied, trying to sound innocent.
Shiroi shook her head; Hiei was being way too protective of her. She noticed that they were nearing Tana's booth and sped up, hoping the others wouldn't get mad at her for doing so.
When she reached to booth, Tana grinned at her. "Did you find them?" she asked.
"Yeah," Shiroi answered as the rest arrived.
"Enjoying yourselves?" Tana asked them.
They nodded, "It's fun," Yuseke said.
Shiroi looked over the items left. Since she and Hiei and left, several things had disappeared, including all of the flutes. She had wanted to get one of them, so she wouldn't have to worry if she lost the other one or if something happened to it, but not now.
"See anything?" Botan whispered.
"Sort of," Shiroi answered, "What about you?"
"Huh?" Botan asked. She looked over the booth, "Not really. Besides, I wouldn't be able to get it anyway."
Shiroi nodded and continued looking. Finally, she spotted something. She looked around and noticed everyone else had somewhat wondered off, but they were still close enough so she could still see them.
She pointed to what she had seen, and Tana held it up for her. It was a miniature dragon, carved in white marble.
"I'll get this one," Shiroi said.
"My husband made this one," Tana said as she wrapped it up in a cloth and put it in a handmade bag so she could carry it easier. "He's good with marble, and one of the best at finding it."
Shiroi smiled, "Tell him that he's very good at this."
Tana smiled, "I will."

When they made it back to Nana's place, they noticed something, Shiroi was nowhere in sight.
"Now where did she go?" Yuseke asked.
"I think I may know," Botan said as she looked at the low western rise.
"Why would she go there?" Kurama asked.
"I don't know," Botan answered.
Hiei wasn't about to sit around while Botan thought about it. So, he did as he would normally do, he left.
"I knew he was going to do that Yuseke said.
