A/N: Hey there!
There is a list of stories at the end that are kicking me to update so
please read those! And again please look
into Collective-Imaginations. If the
link in the last chapter didn’t work put the name into Google search engine.
-“Other line of phone”-
“Other presence in mind.”
“Thoughts.”
Within the mind
Chapter 8
White. All I can see is
white. I can feel a strong wind
battering me and I know I should be cold, but I just can’t seem to feel it.
“Find me.”
That voice again, it is deep and to me it sounds like this storm is the
one doing the talking. But that isn’t
possible. Wait; maybe that isn’t
right. Demons are real, so why can’t
this be real. I need a heading.
“You must fight the storm.”
I understand that…but I will not move until I have a heading. I will not move blindly into a situation I
know nothing about. Whether this is my
own mind or not.
“Hahaha! Amusing little human. Fine then, sense the energies around
you. This is your mind but this is where
I reside.”
Energies? Fine then…no need to
laugh. Can he read my mind? I’m positive I was thinking to myself here.
“You need to work on that little
human, you are not actively broadcasting but I can still here you.”
Well that’s great. Alright so
energies right? Let’s see.
Color seemed to thread its way through the swirling world of white,
greens and blues mixing together and separating into strands to trail through
the snow.
Now there’s color. Two
colors. But which…which one is
mine? The green….or the blue?
000000000000000000000000
Kurama glanced
worriedly out the bedroom window from his spot on the bed beside the still
comatose child. It had been four days
since Yusuke had left his sister in his care.
And yet still…
“Shuichi?”
Looking back towards
the door he smiled slightly at his mother.
He knew that she was concerned over the child’s condition; so was he
really; but he had a feeling that things wouldn’t end well if he took the girl
to the hospital.
“She’ll be fine
mother.”
He had told her the
same thing for days now and he knew she doubted it but it was really all he
could do.
Shiori looked
skeptically aver her son but sighed, letting it go. She trusted her son too much to question him
right now.
“Alright dear. I just wanted to let you know that I was
going out. I’m not sure when I’ll be
back.”
Kurama’s brow
furrowed in concern.
“Are you sure your
well enough for this?”
Shiori smiled at her
sons concern.
“Don’t worry; I’m
taking the car.”
Still slightly
concerned Kurama nods.
“Alright. I’ll see you when you get back.”
Shiori smiled happily
at her boy and after exchanging a few more words with him she leaves. Watching his mother leave Kurama sighed and
looked back out the window, beginning to send out a concentrated portion of his
energy; giving it a desperate feel to it.
“Hopefully this will
catch your attention Hiei.”
Halfway across the
city ruby eyes snapped open before the owner of those eyes flitted off.
000000000000000000000
The storm continued to rage as Yuki studied the strands of color before
her. Emerald eyes followed the strands
out, into the storm before something else caught her attention.
Wait a minute! Both of these
lead both away from me and to me.
“And?”
The voice sounded almost amused to her, but she ignored it as she
thought.
And since there are no other strands…these strands lead to me. And you are a part of me!
“Very good child; you’ve figured
it out.”
But why are there two strands of different colors?
“Find me and I will answer your
questions.”
As the voice faded away Yuki blinked at the storm and huffed.
“Great, I have to battle a snow storm in my own mind. How does that work?”
Deep, resonating laughter was her only answer.
00000000000000000
Kurama jumped up as
he felt Hiei’s fiery energy approaching the bedroom window. Hurrying over he opened it just as the fire
demon landed on the sill. Emerald eyes
smiled into irritated ruby as Kurama moved his body slightly to block the
bed. No need to get the unpredictable
little demon even angrier before he could explain.
“Hello Hiei, thank
you for coming.”
Hiei glared;
irritated that he had responded to his partners call at all when there was
obviously nothing wrong.
“Hn. What do you want fox?”
Kurama winced;
hopefully this wouldn’t anger the other even more. But he wasn’t sure, with how protective he seemed
to be of the child.
“Try not to get angry
Hiei but Yuki-chan hasn’t woken up yet.”
Hiei growled, red
eyes flashing angrily.
“What?”
Kurama cringed and
moved out of the way so Hiei could see the child lying still beneath the
sheets, the only thing letting anyone know she was even alive being the slow,
frail looking rise and fall of her chest.
“I couldn’t find
anything wrong with her when Yusuke called me.
That was four days ago.
Apparently Botan; the reaper girl; couldn’t find anything either.”
Hiei growled angrily
and flitted from the sill to stand beside the child’s bed. Placing a clawed hand on the girl’s forehead
Hiei’s eyes narrowed even further when there was no reaction.
“Where is the
detective?”
“He had a mission;
which is why Yuki-chan is here with me.”
Hiei blinked
momentarily distracted as he glanced at the red headed fox.
“He trusted you with
his sister’s safety after everything?”
How foolish could the
detective be? How naïve?
Kurama smiled,
guessing what was going through the others mind.
“I think that might
have more to do with Yuki-chan here.”
He indicated the
child with a tilt of his head.
“It seems that Yusuke
values his sister’s thoughts and opinions.
She trusts us so, so will he. It
also helps that we cared for her after the Orb took her soul.”
Hiei scoffed, though
his estimation of the detective did go up some.
A shift in
temperature caught Hiei’s attention as the hand on the child’s skin became
significantly colder.
“Her temperature just
dropped.”
Brows furrowed,
Kurama moved forward to look over the others shoulder.
“How could you tell?”
Hiei blinked, lifting
his hand up to look at.
“…My hands cold.”
Kurama’s eyes
widened. For Hiei to say that it must
have dropped drastically; especially because as a child born of both fire and ice
Hiei had a very high tolerance for those elements.
“Why though? There is nothing physically wrong with her.”
Hiei’s eyes gazed at
the still, pale face for a moment.
“Hn. Then that leaves spiritually and mentally.”
000000000000000000000000
Panting Yuki paused for breath, bending over her knees as she scanned
her surroundings. She had no idea how
long she had been walking, battling the harsh winds and heavy snow but she
could feel her strength fading.
“You won’t last much longer
child. Give up for now and try another
day; I will still be here.”
The voice sounded almost sad and Yuki glared into the mass of swirling white.
“I will not back down and I will not fail! You and this storm will not beat me!”
Stumbling back to her feet and taking off into the storm again she
firmed her resolve.
00000000000000000
Kurama glanced over
at where Hiei had the youngest Urameshi cradled on his lap on the bed from his
new seat on the window.
“How are you going to
check how she’s doing spiritually?”
Hiei glanced at his partner
as he removed the warded headband from his forehead, exposing the closed Jagan.
“With the Jagan. I’ll check that first.”
Gold tinted emerald
eyes lit up with curiosity as the red head leaned forward.
“Is there anyway I
can see that too?”
Hiei looked up at the
curious eyes of his partner and sighed.
Damn the curiosity of the fox.
“Hn. Get over here.”
00000000000000000000
“OW!!!!”
Yuki rubbed at her ankle slowly, glancing back to see what she had
tripped over this time. Emerald eyes
caught sight of the spike covered root sticking out of the ground not far
behind her and narrowed.
“That is the fifth time I’ve tripped over one of those! What are they? And how have they even survived here?!”
“Ignore them as best you can
right now. If you can find me we will
discuss it.”
“IF?! WHEN!!”
00000000000000000000
“What…is this?”
Hiei didn’t answer as
he studied the child before them. After
using his Jagan eye to let Kurama see what he did he had used his Jagan to see
the flow of energy within the little girl they had laid out across their
laps. But never had he expected this.
A blue energy with a
cold feel to it seemed to flow freely through her body. But there was also another energy beneath all
that. This one was an emerald green the
same shade as the child’s eyes. It sat
relatively passively within the center of the mass of blue energy; though it
appeared to slowly be trying to merge with the blue energy.
“I’ve never seen
anyone with two forms of energy before other than…”
Kurama knew what Hiei
was implying but ignored it for now in favor of a more pressing issue.
“There are
gold…chains wrapped around most of her form and you’re worried about two
different energies?!”
Hiei flinched away as
the fox’s irate yell hurt his ears. He
scowled at the other demon for a moment before turning his attention to the
‘chains’.
Maybe that wasn’t the
best way to describe them though. They
looked more…dangerous and primitive than that.
But the fox was
right, that was cause for concern. They
seemed to crisscross over the small girl’s entire form, the only place left
untouched being her head. But that
didn’t look intentional, the chains appearing broken around the area of her
neck.
“…It looks to be
restricting her.”
“Restricting what
though?”
Hiei’s eyes scanned
over the girl’s form, studying her energies movements within its ‘prison’.
“Her growth, her
power, her potential and at one point her mind.”
Kurama’s eyes
hardened as he eyes the broken portion of the chain.
“What do you think
made it break?”
Ruby eyes narrowed as
his Jagan began to scrutinize everything.
“A trauma of some
kind; or a drastic change in how she viewed things.”
Kurama blinked,
thinking.
“Could Yusuke finding
her and taking her in have done it?”
Hiei didn’t answer
for a moment as he studied the chain even closer with his Jagan. The ends seemed almost…like they
exploded. Hiei smirked.
“I think it was the
detective himself actually. The chain
appears to have exploded.”
The red head blinked,
highly confused now as he too looked at the chain.
“What do you
mean? This damage looks old.”
Hiei shook his head.
“No, it is old. The toddler Prince only taught him how to use
the power he’s always had.”
Kurama’s eyes widened
as he turned his attention to the silently but obviously amused fire demon.
“So you think
Yusuke’s power instinctually destroyed the chain?”
Hiei thought about it
a bit more as he studied the rest of the chain.
“I think his power
instinctively helped when he unconsciously felt something was wrong with his
sister and has continued to chip away at it all without his knowledge.”
“Can we do
something?”
000000000000000000000
Yuki gasped as he bloodied hands grasped the frozen stone before
her. Pulling herself up one final time
she collapsed to the ground, exhausted and in pain. She had tripped and stumbled her way through
the storm; cutting herself on those spiky roots the whole way; until she had
reached the base of a cliff.
…And wasn’t it just her luck that the energy went up. But at least she seemed to be outside of the
storm now.
“You’ve made it.”
Frozen air puffed over her skin, more like the breath of a large being
than the storm she had just fought her way through.
Tiredly, almost hesitantly, she looked up and dazed emerald eyes locked
with solid ruby.
00000000000000000
Kurama sighed, rubbing
his temples, trying to sooth away the headache that was prominent now that the
Jagan had released him. They hadn’t even
checked the girl’s mind, only getting as far as her spirit. And with all that had been found there…
“You’re sure there’s
nothing we can do?”
Hiei nodded, Jagan
now partially closed as he rested against the headboard of the bed.
“Yes. If we deliberately try something the ‘chains’
might tighten.”
Kurama frowned,
deeply troubled by all of this.
“So then what are we
supposed to do?”
Hiei glanced down at
the still girl, lying comatose under the covers beside his leg.
“We wait and
watch. That’s all we can do.”
Kurama growled;
catching Hiei by surprise; sounding very like the more animalistic Yoko Kurama
in his rage.
“But that-!”
A flare of frigid
energy had both demons tensing to run; remembering the last time they had felt
such a flare. Turning their attention
back to the child they watched as ice began to gather at her right hand, before
moving out from there, shaping itself.
“Hiei?”
“I don’t know.”
000000000000000000
Yuki’s eyes widened, the dazed look clearing as childish curiosity took
over.
“Who are you?”
“Your partner.”
Yuki struggled to push herself up with her tattered little hands as she
watched what she could now see was a huge dragon made of ice.
“Partner?”
She didn’t even start as a long, frozen tail came and wrapped around
her middle, picking her up off the ground gently; almost lovingly; and curling
its giant body around her.
“Yes, your partner; your
Zanpakutou.”
“Zanpakutou?”
The dragon’s giant head nodded, ruby eyes studying her.
“Yes. A Zanpakutou is…a sword with a soul I
suppose.”
Yuki studied him; for the dragons voice pointed rather obviously toward
male; before scowling lightly.
“You don’t need to beat around the bush here.”
Those eyes studied her a moment before that giant head moved down so
that his eye was level with head.
“Very well. Zanpakutou are souls, weapons that are born
when their wielder dies and die when they do.”
Emerald eyes blanked momentarily as the eight year olds quick and sharp
mind tried to process this.
“But…what?!”
“When the Orb of Baas took your
soul you essentially died and then were revived; awakening me….and your
powers.”
Yuki blinked alright that made more sense. But then why…?
“Does Aniki have a Zanpakutou as well then?”
A shake of the giant head was her answer.
“Why not?”
“Mostly because of how he was
revived, he will have a spirit beast rather than a Zanpakutou.”
Yuki blinked, remembering her brother’s story of his time amongst the
dead.
“Oh.”
There seemed to be amusement in that form now.
“…So…I’m confused.”
And oh didn’t she just hate admitting that.
“As your partner I will appear in
the outside world as a sword. Though it
is only once you activate me for the first time that I will take on my own
unique form; right now I will appear very ordinary. You will use my name; once you have it; to
use me and my powers through it. I will
also act as a guide here, teaching you what I can.”
Yuki gazed into those giant eyes for a moment. She wanted to know the name of this
beautifully powerful creature. But she
had a few other questions first.
“Do a lot of people have Zanpakutou's?”
The dragon shook his head.
“No. Each Zanpakutou is unique as is its
wielder. But the way a person awakens
their Zanpakutou is difficult as the wielder must die and then be revived...”
“And that doesn’t happen very often does it?”
Yuki deadpanned as she thought of her brother and herself. What were the chances really?
There was definitely amusement in the frozen form this time.
“No, it doesn’t.”
Yuki’s lips twitched into a smile before she turned her head to look
back at the edge of the cliff.
“Those roots…”
The dragons head rose as he too looked at the cliffs edge.
“Those are the representation
your mind has chosen to give the chains on you within your winter
mindscape. Forced and unnatural in such
a setting as they are forced and unnatural on you.”
Yuki’s head snapped around to stare at the giant, wedge shaped head.
“Chains?”
“Yes. As the fox and the flame that watch over
you. They will explain.”
Yuki watched the dragon solemnly.
There were other questions she wanted to ask but they could wait for
another time.
“Then what is your name?”
The giant head raised, eyes locking with her own.
“MY NAME IS-“
0000000000000000
“Hyorinmaru.”
The soft, slightly
distant voice from the still girl startled the two demons, but not as much as
the sword that was revealed as the ice shattered.
It looked rather
plain, the sheath and hilt appearing ordinary.
But there was power and a sense of knowledge that bellied that.
“Fox?”
In this instance Hiei
felt it best to turn to the older demon for answers. Kurama’s eyes never left the sword and the
girl who clutched it tightly in her small hand.
“I don’t know
Hiei. But it appears that that sword was
what was keeping her comatose, she’s sleeping peacefully now.”
And it was true, for
the first time in almost a week the small still black cloaked child moved. The little hand clutched the sheath of the
sword in her hand and turned on her side, pressing her face into Hiei’s thigh.
Hiei’s ruby eyes
widened in panic and surprise as he shot a desperate look to the fox still by
the window.
Kurama covered his
mouth with his hand to smother his laughter.
He highly doubted even his affection for the child would stop Hiei from
killing him should he let on how amusing Hiei’s panic was. Moving from his place by the window Kurama
walked past the bed; knowing ruby eyes were following his every move; and
stopped with his hand on the door knob.
Glancing back he studied
the picture the two made before smirking.
“She should wake up
by morning. I’m going to try to get a
hold of Yusuke. Watch over her for me
would you?”
He didn’t wait for
the answer, simply letting himself out and shutting the doo softly but firmly
behind him.
Blood red eyes glared
angrily at the closed doo, willing it to open so he could set the mischievous
fox on fire.
A shift against his
leg caused him to look down. Seeing the
scrunched up nose of the girl and the agitated tilt of her eyes he reached down
and hesitantly placed his clawed hand on her head.
Seeing the agitation
leave the pale face Hiei turned his attention to the window, his hand
unconsciously running through the thick dual colored hair as he began making
plans. It was time the youngest Urameshi
started her own training.
0000000000000000000000
Kurama sighed as he
listened to the phone ringing against his ear.
Finally he could give Yusuke some good news. The other teen had called everyday for the
past four days, his worry over his sister distracting him from his mission and
later his training. He admired that
about the teen though, his love and protectiveness for his sister.
After getting a brief
look at the Urameshi siblings home life Kurama had the feeling that little
Yuki-chan had been raised primarily by her brother, which explained some of her
traits as well as Yusuke’s protectiveness.
But it was also good to see that while protective, he was willing to
give her space and let her make her own decisions.
A click over the line
had Kurama pulling out of his thoughts.
-“Yeah?”-
Kurama blinked; that
most definitely wasn’t Yusuke. Could it
be…?
“Master Genkai?”
-“Who’s askin?”-
“Ah, my name is
Kurama…is Yusuke Urameshi there?”
Chances were the old
psychic wouldn’t like the interruption or the fact that Yusuke had given out
her number.
-“The dimwits out
training. What do ya want?”-
Well she was
abrupt. And what an affectionate
nickname…
“I just have news on
his sister’s condition for him.”
There was a pause
over the line and Kurama wondered what was going through the woman’s mind her
slightly rough voice came back over the line.
-“Sister huh? And what’s this about a condition?”-
Kurama blinked; could
it be that Yusuke had never told his teacher who he was calling and what about?
“Yes. The pair of them recently went through an
ordeal and his sister pushed herself too hard.
She had been in a coma for seven days now.”
-“Huh. And what did you want to tell the Dimwit?”-
Kurama glanced back
at the stairs, remembering the little girl and her strange sword.
“She seems to have
come out of it and should be awake by morning.”
Another pause.
-“And how do you
think she will be when she wakes?”-
Kurama thought it
over before remembering the mass of dual power he had seen and the mysterious
sword.
“I believe she will
be fine. Better than fine even.”
Another, much longer
pause and Kurama resisted the urge to shift impatiently.
-“I’ll tell him. Maybe now the Dimwit will take his training
seriously.”-
And then the line
went dead and Kurama pulled the phone away from his ear to stare at it a moment.
Sighing, the red head
made his way to the kitchen to get some ice cream for the fire demon. Hopefully that would put him back in the
unpredictable demons good graces after his little prank, so they could discuss
how to train the ice inclined child before she decided to take it into her own
hands.
0000000000000000000
And so six months
would pass.
000000000000000000
