Kurama tried to make eye contact with the fire demon across the room. The two demon’s were seated in Koenma’s office and were waiting-as usual-for Yuusuke and Kuwabara to arrive. He sighed internally. So far, he had attempted to make conversation with Hiei four times. And failed miserably.

 

He felt empty inside. Hiei’s been ignoring him since they got here and he hasn’t even said more than two words to him. How he just wanted to grab the fire demon across from him and hug and kiss him until he couldn’t breathe.

 

His blood boiled with anger. Everything was just going fine before Misami came back. But still. He still wanted to know why Hiei didn’t want to talk to her. And it incredibly bothered him that they looked alike. Why did she come back? What was her history with Hiei? And why did Hiei feel uncomfortable when Kurama asked about her?

 

He stopped in his train of thought when Yuusuke and Kuwabara burst into the room again uttering apologies. Kurama reeled back. Was this whole week filled with de ja vu’s? He thought ironically and turned to Koenma as the small prince of death began to talk.

 

After ordering them to check out a crime scene in the city. The tantei’s were now walking towards Sonaki city. Yuusuke and Kuwabara slightly ahead talking about the latest sports news. They stopped outside the scene of the crime and peered inside. A single uniformed officer was standing in guard in front of some police yellow tape.

 

“How are we gonna get in?” Yuusuke said. Kuwabara placed a hand under his chin. Deep in thought, “We have to get someone who could leer the officer away. A girl who could distract him with beautiful looks and…” The carrot-top trailed off and both him and Yuusuke turned to Kurama who was waving his hands in protest.

 

“Oh no…I won’t do it!” Kurama protested. It was bad enough that his face looked so feminine that he was mistaken for a girl ever since he was a child. It was worst that he had to play one.

 

“Please Kurama. You’re the only one who looks like a girl and your beautiful enough to distract him.” Kuwabara pleaded. Yuusuke nodded.

 

Kurama sighed and turned to look at the fire demon. For once, they’re eyes met and the redhead pleaded with his eyes to help him out of this situation.

 

“Hn. You the only one who could do this.” He replied and Kurama’s heart sank. He had thought Hiei would help him but he just ignored him.

 

He masked his hurt and turned to the two boys. “Okay. But you guys owe me a lot.” He sighed and rolled his shoulders. Like he was going to do something drastic. But in this situation, maybe he was.

 

Yuusuke and Kuwabara could hardly contain they’re giggles when the officer went bright red after Kurama was finished talking with him. Even Hiei had an amused smile on his face. They saw the officer run off and the redhead walked to them with a triumphant smile on his face.

 

Yuusuke grinned and held up the yellow tape so they can pass. They saw a body covered in a white sheet and Kuwabara stifled a gasp as he saw the pool of blood surrounding the body.

 

“Oi! Look at this!” Yuusuke gestured them closer. “Look. There’s something written here. But I can’t understand it…” Hiei stayed back as Kurama stepped closer.

 

The youko emitted a gasp. Written on the wall with blood in Makai writing were the words:

 

“Hiei is mine and those who dare to steal him will die.”
