Heroes Unite
Chapter 10 of 30
Under Too Much Stress
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hiei awoke to a dark sky that was slowly beginning to lighten up, he looked down at the mass of red hair spread across his chest. He smiled feeling arms wrapped around his waist and a leg thrown across his own. The fire demon slowly ran a hand down over Kurama’s hip and then back up. He repeated this several times before his mate began to awaken. The fox tightened his arms and then relaxed them. Kurama tiredly lifted his head to look at his lover, but found himself in a deep kiss. The demons finally parted when they needed air.
“I’m sorry that I had to wake you, fox. I know you’re tired.” Hiei spoke softly. “But we need to head back.”
“I know, Koi.” Kurama said as he sat up. He reached up and pulled their pants off the branch above them.
Before they had went to sleep, the fox had closed the branches around them to give them some privacy. The two demons quickly dressed and moved to a sturdy branch beside the hammock. Kurama easily manipulated the vines back into seeds and put the back into his hair.
Hiei descended the tree first with his agile fox right behind him. He noticed just how quick the sun was rising and knew they had to hurry up. The fire demon scooped Kurama up into his arms as soon as he hit the ground. The startled fox clung to his lover as he darted for the Capsule Corp. house. They were under the balcony of their room in no time. Hiei put Kurama on his feet and they quickly climbed up the vine. The fox untied the vine and transformed it back into a seed which he stuck into his hair.
“So, should we go back to bed for awhile or stay up and take a shower?” Kurama asked, turning to his lover.
“Whatever you want to do.” Hiei shrugged as he walked into their room.
“Well, I’m still a little tired, so if you don’t mind. Can we go back to bed?” Kurama said, following his lover into the room.
“Hn.” Hiei grunted his acceptance.
They walked over to the bed, took off their clothes, and climbed in. the fire demon pulled the cover up to their waists while the fox snuggled into his side. The two demons quickly went to sleep, but they were soon startled awake for the second day in a row, hearing minor explosions coming from the hall. The fox and fire demon were out of bed and had their pants on in a flash. Hiei grabbed his katana from under the bed and ran to the bedroom door, his fox with him. He yanked it open and they were met with mini explosions in their faces. The door right across the hall was jerked open, revealing two scared looking kits and another round of mini explosions.
“DADDY!!” Kaihei squealed, launching himself across the hall and into the fox’s arms. Toushi didn’t say anything, but he did quickly cross the hall and wrapped his little arms around the fire demon’s waist.
Hiei and Kurama looked at each other, hearing more explosions coming from down the hall. The fox gestured with his head back into their room. The fire demon nodded slightly and led Toushi into the room. Kurama was right behind them, carrying a clinging Kaihei. Hiei made Toushi let go of him and sat the child on the bed. Kurama on the other hand was having difficulty trying to get the kit off of him.
“Kaihei, let go.” Kurama urged, pulling slightly on the boy’s arms. Sometimes, he was amazed at how strong his kit was, though the boy hadn’t realized it yet.
Kaihei was the complete opposite of his parents. He was very clingy; he loved to be around people, and lacked confidence in his abilities. The lack of confidence wasn’t good at all for a demon so the fox and fire demon worked on that constantly. Kurama finally felt the arms loosen around his neck. Quickly taking the opportunity, he sat Kaihei on the bed next to his brother.
“You two stay right here until we get back.” Kurama ordered gently.
“But…” Kaihei started to protest.
“No buts.” Hiei insisted, cutting off the boy. “Stay put!”
“Okay.” Toushi quickly nodded. Kaihei only silently nodded, chewing on his bottom lip.
Hiei reached out, cupped the kit’s chin, and tilted the boy’s head back so they made eye contact. “Relax, Kaihei, you worry way to much. Dad and I will be back in a few minutes. Okay?”
“Okay.” Kaihei replied quietly.
Hiei took his hand away and watched the boy for a moment. Kaihei turned and curled into his brother’s side and Toushi put a comforting arm around his brother’s shoulders. The fox and fire demon shared a secretive and knowing look before turning and quickly leaving the room. They ran down the hall in the direction of the mini explosions came from. They found themselves approaching an annoyed looking group of Saiyans.
“What was all that noise?” Kurama asked as he came to a stop along with his mate.
“Firecrackers.” Trunks answered, holding up a burnt looking string.
“Firecrackers?!” Hiei spoke harshly. He didn’t like that his boys were scared by firecrackers.
“Yes, they were tied to all of our bed room doors.” Videl quickly added, hoping to smooth things over.
“When Vegeta opened our bed room door, it all began.” Bulma said, sounding quite apologetic. “Everybody else opened their doors to see what had happened. It was just a chain reaction from there.”
“Did your and your children’s door have firecrackers on them too?” Gohan asked quickly.
“Yes, they did.” Kurama answered, taking the string from Trunks and examining it. “It seems the prankster has struck again.”
“Apparently.” Vegeta growled angrily. “The question is; who is doing it.”
“Well, any of us could easily put the firecrackers on the doors.” Goten said, looking over the string he held.
“That’s true.” Gohan agreed, glancing to the string he held. Suddenly there was a bright flash of light, that quickly disappeared.
“And that flash! There was one at diner last night too.” Goku said glancing around the group of adults.
“Yes, there was.” Kurama said softly. “As for who is the prankster, we still can’t tell since there were firecrackers on all of our doors.”
“I have to agree.” Bulma nodded, looking thoughtful.
“Well, we can’t keep standing around this hallway all day and worrying about who is doing these pranks.” Bra stated, finally entering the conversation. “I suggest we get dressed, eat breakfast, and then go about what each of us had planned for the day.”
“I second that.” Chi Chi added before turning and walking off towards her room. Goku only grinned and quickly followed his mate.
The rest of the group disappeared, heading in their separate directions. Kurama and Hiei walked into their room, finding their kits snuggled together asleep on the big bed. The fox smiled softly, walking over and then sitting down on the edge of the bed. He was about to wake the boys up when a hand on his arm stopped him. He turned slightly to look at his lover.
“Don’t wake them yet, let’s take a shower first.” Hiei smirked, slowly running his hand down his mate’s arm. Kurama smiled when the fire demon laced their fingers together and pulled him to his feet. He allowed his lover to lead him slowly into the bathroom.
Thirty minutes later, the demons emerged from the steamy room with towels wrapped around their waists. One glance to the bed told them that their sons were still asleep. Kurama pulled on a pair of his new boxers and then his pants. He turned around to see Hiei pulling up his pants and then tying the sash. The fire demon hadn’t worn all those belts since the kits were babies. The things would get in the way when they were in a hurry.
Kurama walked over and carefully sat down on the bed. Hiei hurried over, grabbed the hairbrush from the nightstand and then sat down behind his mate. He slid forward until his inner thighs were pressed against the fox’s backside and hips. He began brushing the long red hair, running his free hand through it too.
After awhile, Kurama felt his lover’s strong arms wrap around him, pressing their bodies together. Hiei laid his head against the fox’s back, snuggling into the soft and now dry hair. He took in a deep breath and then let it slowly escape, mumbling something.
“I love you too.” Kurama whispered, knowing exactly what his mate had said. The demons quickly glanced to the side, feeling the bed shift.
“Daddy? Father?” Kaihei asked, crawling towards them slowly.
“Yes, kit?” Kurama smiled, watching the boy move closer. He knew Kaihei couldn’t tell if they wanted to be left alone, like they did sometimes. The fox only opened his arms and beckoned his son into them. “Come on.”
The smile on the Kaihei’s face matched his father’s as he scrambled into the fox’s lap. He looked up, smile still in place. “What was all that noise, daddy?”
“It was just a prank.” Kurama answered gently, hugging his son.
“Oh.” Kaihei mumbled, snuggling into his father’s chest. This forced the fire demon to readjust his arms and snuggle back in. Kurama almost laughed at his predicament. He was in the middle of a nice family cuddle session.
“Did your brother take good care of you while we were gone?” Kurama asked in almost a whisper.
“Yep, he wouldn’t let me go.” Kaihei nodded, not even bothering to look up. The obvious answer made the fire demon chuckle and mumble something else into his mate’s hair.
“Yes, I have to agree, Hiei.” Kurama chuckled too. Movement on the bed again drew their attention to the side. Toushi crawled towards them and sat down, crossing his legs. The fox opened his arms again for the boy to join them, but the kit just shook his head no. He then felt an amused chuckle coming from the chest pressed against his back again.
“Now, fox, you know Toushi isn’t one for cuddling.” Hiei reached forward and ruffled the boy’s long sleep tousled hair.
“Showing affection is a weakness. I won’t have any kind of weakness because I’m a demon.” Toushi suddenly announced proudly.
Kurama and Hiei started laughing at that comment. They knew very well that that train of thought was wrong.
Hearing the laughter, Toushi got defensive. “What’s so funny?!”
“Nothing really, I just know a couple of demons who once thought that same thing and were proven wrong.” Kurama answered when he was able to stop laughing.
“They’re probably weak.” Toushi mumbled quietly.
“They’re far from being weak.” Hiei said, lifting his head from his mate’s back. “In fact, they’re stronger then most all demons.”
“Hm.” Toushi grunted, unimpressed.
“Toushi, do you think your father and I are weak when we show affection to each other?” Kurama asked quickly, looking sharply at the boy. He didn’t like his son thinking such things when he hadn’t been raised in that way. The kit had been trained to avoid weakness, true enough, but not taught that love was a weakness. This thinking could seriously damage what he and the fire demon had been working so meticulously for.
“Yes.” Toushi whispered, looking away from his parents. “Especially when you and father act all lovey-dovey. It’s gross! Maybe if one of you was a girl…….”
The demons sat stunned for a few minutes, not sure of what to say. Kaihei flattened his ears against his head and looked sadly to his brother. He knew Toushi was in very deep trouble.
“WE ARE NOT WEAK!!” Hiei exploded, reaching out quickly and fisting his hand in the boy’s pajamas. He yanked the scared boy closer with a nasty growl.
Kurama winced, hearing the angry noise, but kept quite. He knew his mate wouldn’t hurt their boy. The fire demon knew he had lost his temper with Toushi, something that rarely happened with his sons, but he didn‘t care at the moment. The kit was walking a very fine and dangerous line.
“We’re strong separately, but together, we’re unbeatable. Our love for the other is what allows this. You of all beings, will not disrespect it! We get enough disrespect from just about every ningen that we don’t need it from you too! It’s so bad we can’t even hold hands in ningen public! If Kurama and I didn’t love each other as much as we do, you wouldn’t be living with us and Kaihei wouldn’t exist at all! You need to realize how lucky you really are. If you hadn’t been found and we hadn’t taken you in, you would be dead by now. You wouldn’t have survived in the Makai as weak as you were. If you don’t like how or how often Kurama and I show affection to each other, you can certainly leave and live in the Makai any way you want. I can guarantee, you will be dead by the end of the first night!”
By the time Hiei was done speaking, Toushi was trembling with silent tears running down his cheeks. The fire demon released the kit and wrapped his arms tightly around the fox’s waist. He turned his head away from his son, already feeling guilty for what all he’d said, and laid it against the fox’s back, trembling too. Hiei had never lost his temper in such a way with his sons. He was breathing hard, trying to get himself under control before anything else came out of his mouth that he would regret.
Kurama felt his lover shaking and the soft sobs coming from the kit in his lap. Kaihei was scared; he had never heard his father speak so harshly. He glanced to the silently crying boy beside them. He felt bad for his mate’s hateful words, but they needed to be said, Toushi had to learn his place.
“Alight, everything that has been said now needs to be forgiven, and you two need to calm down.” Kurama spoke softly, hugging Kaihei to him. He reached over and pulled Toushi into a tight hug too. After a couple of minutes of silence, the fox spoke again. “You two kits, go get a bath and get dressed. We’ll be over in a few minutes to get you both and then go down to breakfast.”
The boys reluctantly pulled away. Kaihei was calm, but Toushi was still crying. They got up from the bed and quickly exited the room, closing the door behind them. Kurama took a deep breath before pulling out of his lover’s arms and turning around on the bed. Hiei had regret clearly present on his face as well as anger, for himself and for the kit he’d just reprimanded.
Kurama leaned forward quickly and embraced his lover, trying to comfort him. Hiei returned the hug before leaning back and taking the fox with him. He didn’t care if Kurama wanted to lie down or not, he needed the emotional support. The fire demon needed the strong arms around him to calm him, to anchor him in this sea of raw emotions, and to reassure him that he hadn’t been wrong for being angry at their son.
