Chapter One

Fate Intervenes

 

“Arc? What are you looking at?”

 

“Arc?”

 

Arc's eyes roamed over the tree tops of the woods, seeing shadows that shouldn't be there.

 

All was silent and then one of the shadows moved.

 

“Someone's here,” She announced.

 

Hiei and the others looked towards the trees and watched as shadowed figures moved from tree top to tree top.

 

Yusuke and Kuwabara got off the swings they were sitting in as Kurama pulled the rose out of his hair.

 

“Who do you think they are?” Kurama asked.

 

“Don't know. Don't care,” Kuwabara said as he cracked his knuckles.

 

“Get ready.”

 

Everyone was silent and then a smirk on Yusuke's face appeared as shadow after shadow leapt towards them.

 

A large shadow loomed over a tree and looked straight at Arc, who didn't move. The shadow jumped up, and the tree disappeared.

 

It was never in a tree.

 

Yusuke punched the demon in the face, shoving its face into the sand as Kuwabara ate dirt before he rolled out of the way as a demon's foot that came rushing down at the back of his neck. Kurama called on his rose whip and sliced two demons in half.

 

A large black hand with long razor like claws punched the small Mary-go-round, bending it and then breaking it in half as Arc jumped out of the way. She smirked as she slid in the dirt and a small blue flame began to engulf her hand and part of her wrist.

 

The demon roared and then advanced. Arc stayed in the soft sand and waited, but got a weird look on her face when she saw the creature stop abruptly. A long, shiny blade appeared through their chest from behind, ripping them in half.

 

“Damn you, Hiei. That one was mine!” Arc yelled at Hiei.

 

Hiei just smirked and said, “Hn.”

 

“Bastard,” She muttered as he disappeared.

 

She stood up just in time as a small fast demon ripped at her stomach, grazing the side of it. She grabbed their arm, with the flame still in hand, and ripped it off. A shrill cry was heard before the demon tried to bite her.

 

A pole of ice ripped out of the black flesh on the demon's back as Arc placed her hand to their chest.

 

The body fell and began to disappear into the night shadows around her. When she turned around, she saw the same thing happening to the other demons that had been killed or badly wounded.

 

A few minutes later and the gang was done. All the black shadowed bodies of their enemy were gone; disappeared.

 

“Who were those guys?” Kuwabara asked.

 

“They were shadow demons. They're used as assassins in Makai, which means someone sent them specifically after us.” Kurama stated.

 

“Well that's great. Guess we'll have to go see the toddler tomorrow.” The detective said.

 

“Joy,” Arc muttered as she walked past the others and made her way through the small park. The others began to follow after her.

 

When they cam across the entrance, Kuwabara and Yusuke went in one direction, while Kurama went in the other. Hiei and Arc both left together, on their way back to their new place. Or really, Hiei's new place.

 

XXXXX

 

“So, you wanna stay up and watch a movie tonight?” She asked.

 

“Hn.”

 

“OK, I'll take that as a yes to a chick flick, then.”

 

Hiei growled and Arc smirked as she put an arm around his shoulder.

 

He threw it off and placed his own around her waist and held her tighter to him. She sighed, but let him hold her and growl at a few people that passed by and stared at her.

 

“You know, you're a little over protective.”

 

He didn't listen to her. When they finally reached his apartment, they walked up the stairs and went inside.

 

Arc went to their room and pulled off her clothes and got into a large white button down shirt. She then placed on a pair of black, silky boxers and took her hair down from it's pony tail.

 

Hiei walked in a few moments after she was done, and began to disrobe himself as well. They weren't ready to see each other naked yet, after only a few months since they had defeated Ruri.

 

“When are you going to go visit your parents?”

 

“In a few days.” She had been staying with Hiei and her parents off and on for the last few months, even though her parents thought that she stayed with her friends.

 

She just wasn't ready to go home. She was still afraid of what she was capable of. She didn't want to hurt them anymore, even though they practically begged her to come back.

 

She wouldn't do that to them again.

 

Arc turned around once Hiei said he was done dressing, and walked towards the living room. She started picking through movies while Hiei watched her with something in his eyes.

 

“You wanna watch Underworld?”

 

He didn't answer her.

 

Sigh.

 

She put the movie in the DVD player, and then walked past him to the small kitchen, and began to make popcorn. She grabbed a few drinks out of the fridge and a tub of ice cream.

 

A few minutes later she was trying to balance a bowl of popcorn, two beers, a tub of ice cream, and some chocolate in her hands.

 

Hiei watched her as she walked slowly across the room.

 

“Hurry up.”

 

She still walked slowly.

 

“Grr...”

 

He speed up beside her and grabbed the ice cream and a beer and then ran back over to the couch as the movie started.

 

“Thanks,” She said sarcastically.

 

She sat down and watched the movie. Half way through it, Hiei was done with his ice cream and beer, when he looked over at Arc, who was really into the movie.

 

He looked back to the movie, trying to get certain thoughts out of his head.

 

'She's hundreds of years younger than me! She's not going to want to do that!' He told himself as he tried to watch the movie.

 

A hand suddenly crept up his arm.

 

“Hey, Hiei. You want some-,” She was cut off as Hiei lunged at her and kissed her passionately. She didn't really mind, but she didn't like to be knocked to the floor with her shoes under her.

 

So, she pushed him back up onto the couch and straddled him. He placed his hands on her hips as she bent over and enveloped his lips with her own. Their tongues danced in each others mouths, fighting for domination, in which Hiei won, at least in this round.

 

His hands traveled up her back and then down her sides, causing her to shiver slightly. She in return rubbed his chest under his shirt, touching him in all the right places. She grazed her nails lightly over his chest and then stomach, making him moan lightly.

 

She smiled into the kiss as she broke free and started kissing him down his neck, sucking and swirling her tongue over his hot flesh.

 

He placed his hands in her hair, and looked to the side absentmindedly. The sword fight scene in the movie was on and he suddenly became interested in it. He pushed Arc off of him and sat up to watch the scene.

 

Arc just looked at him and then at the screen, her mouth open slightly before she started to laugh.

 

“You are so lucky that I like this movie so much, or else I might have hurt you for that,” She said as she sat down and watched the movie also.

 

They both fell into the movie, again. When it was over, Hiei wanted to continue what they were doing earlier, but Arc smirked wickedly and said, “I'm too tired.”

 

A fake yawn was also included as she went to their room, leaving a confused Hiei on the couch.

 

'Oh well, there's more ice cream in the fridge,' He said to himself as he went to go get it.

 

XXXXXX

 

The next day, Arc went for a run in the park. Hiei was still sleeping on the couch when she left, and didn't want to bother him.

 

After about thirty minutes of running, she stopped by a water fountain and took a long drink. She wiped her mouth and said, “Yuk.”

 

She decided to take one of the small paths in the woods, and started off again. Halfway into the woods, she came across a clearing. She stopped momentarily, feeling something.

 

She looked around the dense tree tops and spotted something. A small demon came flying at her from the tree's shadow and attacked her. She noticed how it was the same kind as earlier that night, and cut it down with her ice dagger.

 

The dagger immediately extended into a sword as five more came flying from shadows all over the clearing.

 

Her sword made contact with the black flesh again and again, ten bodies disappearing again. The more she killed, the more that came at her from the shadows.

 

She was outnumbered in a matter of minutes.

 

Sword in one hand, and a flame in the other, she ripped through demon after demon that came at her. A long slash made itself present on her cheek, that started to heal after she forced her flame engulfed hand into the demon's stomach. Her breathing was becoming harsh as she forced her sword into the chest of the black creature.

 

She stepped back a few steps as they advanced on her. Her back hit someone else's and she registered the warm feeling it produced. Unlike the creature behind her, the demons that were trying to kill her had no body warmth, just coldness.

 

She suddenly felt safe, even though she had no idea why, or who they were. But, they fought back to back, destroying the demons that came at them.

 

Arc could hear the sound of flesh ripping behind her as the person's claw made impact with another demon. This sound roared in her ears during the whole fight, until the demons stopped coming.

 

Arc turned around and looked at her companion. A tall girl with silver hair and maroon eyes stared at her. Small dog ears rested at the top of her head. She suddenly dropped to one knee and bowed her head.

 

“Princess Archer.”

 

XXXXXX

 

So... what you think?
