Hey guys! I hope some of you who are currently reading HGttS are reading this also! I'm trying to work in some humor on this fic, but it won't be like Hiei Goes to the Shrink. There will be romance, because I have a Hiei/oc pairing. I'm not sure if I'll work in any other couples, but just tell me if you want me to, and I'll try to fit it. The story will mostly be told in my character's pov and Hiei's pov, but some of it will be in Kurama's. OK, here is the prologue, and I don't own anything except my characters and the plot. telepathy, 'thoughts', and obviously "talking" Enjoy.
I thought I was just an ordinary fifteen-year-old girl with spiky midnight-blue hair who ran away from home. That is, until it seemed that everybody was hunting me down. And I found out that I could shoot lightning-bolt arrows out of my palms. Guess I'm not so ordinary after all huh?
The Boy Outside My Window
Chapter one: The Four Who Watch
Ever since I ran away from home people and demons have both been after me. I guess it's because of my new found "power." That's the only reason I can come up with anyway. Now, for about a week four others have taken interest in me. And it's weird, because they don't come after me or anything, they just watch me. Since they don't bug me or anything, I just ignore them. Or sometimes, I'll watch them.
I found out that it really creeps one of them out. Which makes it all the more fun. As I already mentioned, there are four of them. Two are human and the other two are demons. They take turns watching me. One of the humans has black hair and I've noticed he's kind of a punk. The other human (who I've dubbed carrot-top ) is the one I watch. Then there are the two demons. One has long-ish red hair, and the other has spiky black hair with a starburst. His hair is gravity defying! Seriously it sticks straight up and it's kind of long.
Now, the time they watch me. The punk follows me around on Mondays and Tuesdays, while carrot-top follows me around (much to his dismay) on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The demon with red hair (dubbed Red) and nice green eyes follows me around on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The other demon, who I find really cute, watches over me at night. Every night he is outside my window. I live in an empty warehouse for those who were wondering.
Of course the first time I saw him sitting on my window sill (my windows are sunken in towards the house) I freaked out. I had woken up for some reason close to morning, to see a demon on my window sill. I fell out of bed and screamed. Which is pretty bad since my bed just consists of a pile of blankets on the warehouse floor. Of course my scream woke him up, and he looked in my window, his hand immediately coming to rest on the hilt of a sheathed Katana.
When had wrestled out of the mass of blankets and looked out the window, I saw him staring at me and recognized him immediately. Since I had seen all four together before they had decided who would watch me and when, I knew he wasn't a crazed psycho trying to get through my window.
Why'd you scream? The icy voice sounded like it came from inside my head. So I tested my theory. You scared me. I thought. Hn Was my only answer. I saw the demon settle himself back to a comfortable position on my window sill. What's yourname?I thought back. He looked at me , and I noticed he had beautiful ruby red eyes. Go back to sleep. He thought to me, and he turned to stare out at the woods behind the warehouse. I looked at my watch, 1 a.m. 'Mine-as-well do what he says, there's nothing else to do.' I thought to myself as I crawled back into bed and fell asleep again.
Hiei's Pov
'I wasn't supposed to talk to her, the toddler won't like it. Hn, good. I'm sick of just watching her, we should just ask her if she's the one we're looking for and stop wasting time. Although, it is fun seeing the baka scared by her.' I can't believe I actually smiled at that thought as I contacted Kitsune. Kurama, let's just talk to the girl and stop wasting time. I told him. Hiei, Koenma just wants us to watch her, at east until school starts again. Came the irritating response. Then what?! I have to watch her while the Detective, the dimwit and you go to school? And what about Botan? She should be helping too. I told him skeptically. I don't know Hiei. Look, it's Friday and I have a cold, so will you watch her for me? I can't believe he asked me that! Of course I won't do it, I have to watch her every night. Fine. Did I just agree to do it? Thank you Hiei. And with that our conversation ended, leaving me baffled. 'Why did I agree?' I thought to myself as I watched the girl, "Sakari" Koenma said her name was, get up. Time to go.
Sakari's Pov
'Ugh, I wish this place had a bathtub.' I thought as I got up. It was really a pain to take a bath, since I was always watched and the warehouse didn't have a bathtub. So, after I ran away I went to a stream and dug out a section. Then I piled the sides all around with big rocks, but I left one spot clear so it didn't flood. That's how I've been taking baths, and it's cold, believe me. I ran away in summer, when school was out, so I could blend in better and now I can't think of what I'm going to do for a bath in winter. I am sure as heck not going to break ice to take a bath, and freeze my butt off.
After I got dressed, (of course the demon was never in my window when I changed, I checked), I grabbed my bathing bag and headed to the stream and my "bathing hole". Now, I dug out the bathing hole soon after I ran away, so of course when the four started watching me, I had trouble taking my bath. I didn't trust the punk, but carrot-top I told one day: "Look, I have to take a bath, and if I catch you watching me, I'll kill you. OK?" And he got so scared! All he could manage was a weak nod.
So after that I took a bath on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Then on Friday, I just turned to Red and said: "I am going to take a bath, please do not follow me." He nodded, and I trusted him. Of course I had to trust him, I was not going to go five days without a bath.
When I walked out of my back door, I was surprised to see the cute demon with the spiky hair instead of the other one. Where's Red? I asked him. He seemed surprised that I asked. Kurama is sick. He replied. So his name's Kurama then. He didn't think anything, and his face never changed. That's when I first figured out that he didn't show much emotion. Well then, I am going to take a bath in the stream . Don't follow me ok? Hn. I'll take that as a yes. I thought, and then I could have sworn I saw the ghost of a smile playing on his lips. I smiled back and walked into the woods. I don't know why we didn't just talk out loud.
Once at the stream I emptied my bag of its contents. Shampoo and conditioner for color-treated hair, soap, a razor, a toothbrush, toothpaste, a towel, and a change of clothes. All taken from my house when I left, and replacements since then have been stolen. I have to save the money I have left ( stolen from my abusive stepfather) for food, which is way harder to steal.
At least I dug my bathing hole where it would be easy to rinse my hair. The water comes in between two rocks and comes down . My own personal mini-waterfall for hair washing. And since the water flows in , and then goes out between the rocks(on the spot I left open) it's filtered. Well, at least the soap goes out, so I can brush my teeth at the same time. The only problems are; 1. The water's always cold and 2. The rocks hurt to sit and step on.
'I bet those four are watching me to see if I use my "power" so they can see if it's me they're after. They certainly haven't been watching me for nothing I'm sure. It doesn't really bug me that they're watching me though, I almost feel safer. Plus, the spiky-haired one is hot even if he is short, but that's cool because we're almost the same height. I think he's even taller than me by an inch.' All those thoughts were chasing themselves around in my head as I got up, dried myself ,and changed. Then I walked out of the woods and into the warehouse. I had thrown my stuff onto my bed and started to walk to the front door when I saw that the front door was already open.
Now, this warehouse was in good condition when I found it and had two doors with working locks on the door knobs. I always locked the front door , but if I was out, I left the back door unlocked. So even before I noticed the doorknob was currently on the floor, I knew the door was forced open. I had already gone to my bed (which is below the window, next to the back door) and grabbed my Katana. I have no clue how to use it, but my mother had always wanted me to learn and I had gotten it for my thirteenth birthday. 'I wish I had learned how to use this.' I thought to myself as I saw a few shadows on the wall. The intruders were around the corner, probably by the bathroom. (Yes, I have a working toilet and sink!)
The demon had apparently been watching from the window, because he suddenly materialized beside me. 'He's one of those demons who are really fast!' I thought to myself.
Hiei's Pov
Someone's in her house, and judging by her reaction, she wasn't expecting company. Maybe now she'll use her powers and I can bring her to Koenma. In the mean time I have to protect he. I want to protect her. 'Whoa, where did that come from?!'
Sakari's Pov
The intruders came around the corner. There are six of them, and they're all demons. They're ugly, with yellow skin and horns, red eyes, claws, and they all have guns. 'Great.' "Hiei, we heard the Spirit Detectives were watching over the girl, guess the rumors are true." One of them said in a deep, clear voice. I had expected it to have a guttural voice. "We'll take over from here Hiei, just tell Koenma she went missing." Another said. "I'd rather tell Koenma to get a cleaning crew out here to clean up what will be left of you." Hiei growled. "But we thought you didn't like doing assignments from Koenma, unless that is a rumor." A third one said. "Where are your teammates?" One more said. "I don't need them to take care of you." Hiei said. I was sick of them talking. They all came closer. Hiei( I guess his name is) drew his Katana. "Touch her and die." He threatened them. One look at his face told me it was no empty threat either. I suggest that you draw your Katana, or get ready to use your powers. Hiei thought to me.
I drew my Katana as it started to pour outside, just like in some horror movie. But unlike in those movies, I wasn't going to play the damsel-in-distress.
A/N: Ok, so did you like it? Believe it or not, that took me like more than two hours to type! The things I do for you guys. I just hope you liked it. Ha ha, I left off in a cliff hanger, well, sort of. Anyway, the next chapter may be up today, if I get some reviews. Please no flames, but constructive criticism is welcomed. I have up to chapter five written, but that is at 18 pages, written, so I won't get all that up today. I will also have an update for HGttS up today, hopefully. I probably will, because I've been here all morning typing. So anyway review, and you may find out what happens today. (Unless my dad picks me up before I'm finished typing. He still doesn't have internet. And my mom wants to go to lunch!) Well, I have to upload this before my mom is ready to go.
Hasta Luego,
Katana Blade
