The Trouble With Sports And Recreation







I couldn't see. In fact, I couldn't even think. All I could do was lay there in the grass and feel the wave of pain that coursed from my Jagan. I heard someone shouting and I felt the vibrartions through the ground as they ran up to me.

"Hiei! Hiei, are you alright?!" It was Kurama.

<<No baka, you just slugged me in the face with a baseball, I'm NOT alright>> I thought, but "Uhhn..." was all I got out.

"Wow Kurama, you got him good." I heard Yusuke laugh.

I felt a hand carefully brush away the hair in my face. "Shimatta, he's bleeding." Kurama observed.

More laughter from Yusuke. I would have to do some serious face smashing soon.... By now I could feel the warm trickle of my own blood as it flowed down my face. My head was starting to clear now, the dull throbbing of my forehead forcing me to stay conscious. "Baka." I growled from my place on the ground.

"The shrimp has a thick skull. Hey Hiei, you look funny sprawled out like that!" Kuwabara taunted. Just the sound of the tall human's voice made me want to cut him into tiny peices with my katana and watch as he wriggled in the dirt.

"Hiei, can you get up?" Kurama asked me. I felt him grab my wrists and pull me into a sitting position. I growled and gingerly touched my third eye. It hurt like hell.

"What a shot, Kurama! You pegged him square in the forehead! the poor guy!" It was Boton. That baka fairy woman just had to show up... When I opened my eyes everyone was crowded around me like I was some kind of spectacle. "STOP HOVERING!!" I yelled at them. I winced regrettably at how loud my voice rang in my own ears and I tried to stand up. My vision blurred and I had to blink a few times to clear my head. Kurama and Kuwabara helped me up.

"I thought you told me nothing ever happens in left feild, Yusuke." I grumbled rubbing the back of my head. For some reason he and the Idiot found my comment amusing and they doubled over, laughing like hyenas. Kurama looked like he was going to pass out with guilt. "I'm sorry, Hiei. But you should have been paying attention."

I snorted. "I didn't even WANT to play your stupid human game. I have better ways to kill time."

Kuwabara laughed harder, slapping his knees, "Yeah! Like being unconscious!" He slapped me on the back, sending me flying forward into Botan. I was totally unprepared for this assult and I knocked her over, following her to the ground.

Boton moved from underneath me. "Hiei, get your face away from my--"

I lifted my head realizing suddenly why the fairy woman was freaking out. Because of my height, I had landed...uhh...strange. Strong hands pulled me off of her and we both brushed ourselves off. I glared at KuwaBAKA. Yusuke howled at my perdicament: "Kuwabara, you don't just wallop an injured person!"

I raised an eyebrow at the leader of our team and shook my head. "I'm leaving."

"Hiei, don't go.You can watch, you won't have to play." Kurama told me, grabbing my shoulder as I turned to go.

"I don't want to." I shrugged his hand off.

"Please? I'll buy you ice cream when the game's over." He bribed me. That fox knew how fond I was of human ice cream... I stopped walking. Intrigued by the promise of the cold treat.

"If I stay until the end of the game?" He smiled, knowing he had won me over. "Hai."

I snarled, looking over his shoulder at the others. Keiko and Shiziru had joined us and were looking expectant behind Botan and Kuwabara. Yusuke tossed me my baseball glove, I caught it and muttered as he passed me by. Everyone took up their positions on the feild and began to play. I climbed the short wooden fence that seperated the feild from the bleachers and stood with my arms folded on top of a post. The game resumed and I found myself bored to death of watching them hit and throw a ball around the feild while running in circles. I heard the framiliar THOCK of the ball hitting the bat and felt my eye lids getting heavy. I had just started to doze off when I heard the shouting.

"Hiei! HEADS!!"

I opened one eye. Everyone was waving their arms in the air like a bunch of morons. The girls had closed their eyes and were visably flinching as though in pain. Heads?? What on earth was THAT supposed to mean?

KONK!

For the second time in one hour I found myself in that same world of pain. Not only had my skull been pushed in by several centimetres, but the force of the ball's impact sent me reeling backwards off the fencepost. Hence my current position on the ground. Once again I was the centre of attention and a circle of faces loomed above me. Kuwabara was laughing his ass off, rolling around in the grass. Everyone was asking me if I was alright and watching for my reaction. I felt like a bloody display in a Makai museum.

"Kurama?" I purred through clenched teeth.

"Yes Hiei?" He leaned close to hear what I had to say. In response, I snagged one of his sidelocks tightly in my fist and pulled so that he cried out in pain. "You're going to have to buy one helluva lot of ice cream to make up for this."


~End~






Saku note: I know this is NOT one of my best, in terms of writing style etc. but I though it would be funny as hell to see Hiei get beaten by a baseball. Let me know what you thought of it please! I'll write another if I get ten or more reviews for this one...*wink* Am I bribing you? Yes, yes I am.
