Misami tore from tree to tree. Her mind was reeling from what she had just encountered. She stopped on a tree branch and sat down, her breathing ragged. Avoiding Hiei’s blows took a lot out of her. She took a few moments for her breathing to calm down. She leaned against the tree trunk and thumped her head onto it. Did just that happen, she pinched herself, much to her dismay, she happened to pinch the shoulder were Hiei wounded her. Pain shot through her shoulder and she winced. She forgot she was wounded and began to send youki to it again.

 

The wound closed up and she managed a faint smile. She was so tired she could fall asleep then and there. She looked down at herself, she was a mess, and blood had dried on her arm and had stained her shirt. Her feet were full of scratch marks from running through the trees. She uttered a low curse. Trust herself not to where boots when your going to run through trees. And wisps of red hair had fallen from her braid and her face was full of dirt and sweat.

 

She thumped her head again on the trunk. Baka! Baka! Baka! Why did you let him go? Her heart clenched as she remembered how cold Hiei’s eyes were when he looked at her, like he was disgusted at her. She cringed at the memory then her expression changed into anger as she recalled how Hiei looks at the redheaded fox when she watched them a few days ago. She had researched who that redheaded fox was and found out that it was Youko Kurama, Makai’s most fearful thief.

 

How dare that fox touch Hiei!! She had to come up a plan to get Hiei or she would never get him from that slut. After she took a bath on a lake nearby she had her mind set on a plan. Her face turned into a smirk as she made her way to a gate to Makai. She stopped in front of the gate. “I swear you’ll be mine Hiei. I’ll kill Kurama if it’s the last thing I do” she swore and disappeared inside the gate.

 

*^^*

 

Hiei had returned to Meiow High in time for Kurama’s class to end. He waited outside the gates and waited for the fox to arrive. He saw Kurama’s-or rather Shuuichi’s-fan club, coming out of school. And right on the center of the group was Kurama, who was being swarmed by gifts from his many fans, girls and boys alike.

 

He smirked as the redhead made and excuse to his loyal fans and ran over to him with his school bag overflowing with gifts. Kurama flashed him one of his special smiles, the ones he only showed to his family and loved ones. He felt himself smiling back and started walking, the fox stepped beside him and they started to walk towards his home.

 

He listened half-heartedly while Kurama talked about what happened at school and what his loyal fan club just to get his attention. He was contemplating whether to tell Kurama what happened before when they reached the Minamino household. Kurama stopped in front of the door. “Why don’t you come in this way?” The fox asked teasingly. “Hn.” Hiei replied and disappeared, Kurama chuckled and went in the ‘ningen way’. He greeted his mother and talked to her for a while and went up to his room.

 

He found his precious Koorime in his bed asleep. He smiled and walked over to the bed, he stripped down to his boxers and white undershirt and lay down on the bed and snuggled with Hiei. Hiei stirred and moved closer to him until he was pressed up against his chest. Kurama gave a sigh of contentment and fell asleep.

 

*^^*

 

Kurama woke up when he heard the phone ringing on his bedside table. Shattering his peaceful slumber. Hiei, who just heard the annoying ringing, started to stir. “Shhh…go back to sleep” He patted the fire demon on the rear and picked up the phone.

 

There was a long pause. “Okay” Kurama said and hung up. Hiei was now awake and blinked his ruby eyes at him. “Who was that?” he asked. “Oh, Koenma said that we should go to his office tomorrow. *Yawn* he said that there’s a mission we have to take care off…” Kurama snuggled up to Hiei. “Ai shitteru koibito…” He whispered just before he fell asleep. “Hn.” Hiei sighed and fell asleep.

 

*^^*

 

They arrived at Koenma’s office the next morning. Koenma was stamping file after file while they were waiting for Yuusuke and Kuwabara to arrive. Kurama was sitting in a chair, reading a book while Hiei was sitting on a chair beside him and polishing his katana.

 

Koenma looked up a moment and looked around the room. “They still aren’t here yet?” He asked impatiently. At that moment, Kuwabara and Yuusuke burst through the door. They stammered apologies and sat down on the remaining chairs. Koenma stood up in his chair and looked intently at them.

 

“There have been a series of killings in the Ningenkai and the way she kills is very different from other demons, I’m sure some of you have heard of it” Yuusuke, Kuwabara and Kurama nodded and a blue oni came in and started to give each tantei a copy of the demons profile. “She kills the victim first then cuts they’re tongues out.” (I can be a little dark now and then ^_^) Kurama opened his own file and stared at the picture.

 

The woman had very long, flowing red hair a little lighter than his and it was braided and just reached her knees. She had light brown skin that almost matched up to his. The redhead flinched when he saw her eyes, it was blue and they were so cold that it looked like it was made of ice. He read her profile and learned that her name was Misami. He heard Hiei emit a gasp and he turned to his lover.

 

Hiei stood up and was staring at the file he could have almost burned through it. He tentatively reached out a hand and touched it with Hiei’s. “Hiei, Daijoubo?” The fire demon heard Kurama’s voice and shook his head to clear it. “Hn. Daijoubo” Kurama gave his hand a soft squeeze and took back his hand.

 

Koenma had seen the exchange and walked to the front of his desk. “Do you know her Hiei?” Yuusuke and Kuwabara looked up to listen. Hiei nodded. “She was…an old friend” “Aah…” Koenma nodded and tapped his chin with his finger. “Do you know anything that might point out were we could find her?” Hiei shook his head. “Nothing, I didn’t know her long” He said then sat down again.

 

After a few more questions with Hiei saying that he didn’t know anything about her. The foursome had just gone through the gate and went to the easiest way to look for her. A skyscraper so Hiei could search for her using his Jagan. They reached the nearest one and went up, with Hiei-of course-refusing to use the elevator.

 

They reached the top and Hiei uncovered his jagan to search for her, it was much more easier because he knew her ki signature. He felt a trace of her ki and pointed to it. “There” Kurama followed his finger and saw were it was pointing; it was in a popular restaurant that High school students went to. He squinted his eyes a little to clear it and then she saw her.

 

Misami was walking towards a dark alley and she was wearing ningen clothes. She was immediately noticed because of her fiery red hair “Lets go!” Yuusuke called out and he, Kuwabara and Kurama ran down while Hiei flitted to where she was.

 

Kurama, Yuusuke and Kuwabara made it to the alley just in time to see Hiei start a sword fight with the female youkai. Kurama could barely see what was happening because of the tremendous speed the two fighters were showing. He instantly took out his rose whip when he saw Hiei fall down onto the cement floor. He cracked his whip threateningly and charged the youkai. Kuwabara and Yuusuke were already taking turns in fighting the woman when Kuwabara was hit and he fell down too. Yuusuke moved away when Kurama charged with his whip, which Misami defended with her katana expertly, the youkai even had the guts to smirk at him in between charges. Kurama muttered a curse. This woman was fast! He could barely keep up with her.

 

Misami had hit his forearm and he backed away just in time not to get beheaded. He back flipped and landed next to Hiei, he looked down. The fire demon was still unconscious. Kurama’s green eyes flashed golden and charged again. Misami was surprised and was it by his whip and she was sailed a few meters away.

 

She planted her feet on the ground to slow her down and glared at him. “Kisama!” She blurred from sight and reappeared in front of him, he immediately used his whip as a shield and avoided the blow.

 

Both of them heard a grunt and turned to see Hiei sit up and rub the side of his head where he was hit before. Kurama quickly ran over to him and began to rub Hiei’s injury, Misami saw the concern in the fox’s eyes and jealousy began to creep up her throat again. “Hiei, you didn’t tell him did you?” She said in a confident voice. Kurama’s head snapped up to meet her challenging gaze, while Hiei was glaring at her. Misami chuckled, Kuwabara and Yuusuke stopped to listen. “Poor, poor youko, you don’t know anything about Hiei” She taunted and Kurama stood up. “Urusai!” He spat out angrily, “What do you know about him? You don’t know him”

 

“Oh, I do know everything about him, do you know why?” She said. She smirked before she continued. “Because I was Hiei’s former lover”
