Hayami's POV

"Hn. Whatever that fool ordered you to do, might as well not do it, Hayami." Hiei said, "I'm not stopping with my plans and I will destroy that spirit detective of yours."

"Even if it means fighting me, Hiei?" I asked him, making him look at me a bit surprised, "Let's be honest here, we never had gotten to finish our fight back in demon world since we first met. You could just easily kill me, because I'm half human and you hated humans because they're weak. You even told Kurama not to get me involve since I never wanted to be a part of your plans, but yet you respected my decision, even if I'm half human. What makes it any different that you just wanted to kill every human but don't want to kill me now? You had your chance back then."

"Do you think that I don't care about you, Onna?! Ever since you left, I've been trying to find you with my Jagan eye!" Hiei said clenching his fist. "Not only that, words have spread in demon world that Lady Wakumi was killed along with her family. Do you have any idea how difficult it is for me when I heard that you and your family were said to be dead?! Now tell me, Hayami. Is your mother, Lady Wakumi, dead or alive?"

"The rumors were through, Hiei. My mother did passed away...for 20 years now." I said looking at the ground, letting my bangs cover my eyes. "After we buried her body my father decided to leave demon world. Letting everyone think that we died along with her, because we didn't want to face on loosing someone we care about that could only break us inside!" I said feeling the same pain as I remembered my mother being pierced through her heart as tears begin to form in my eyes.

Hiei only stared at me in shock. After I left him, it only pains me, because I thought of him as my true friend in which he just wants me to be near him. And when my mother died, the pain just grew more.

"I tried to avenge my mother by killing the ones who had killed her, but only to be blinded by rage that my life was spared, just to mourn over her death!" Tears began to fall from my eyes as I told him of what he'd missed. "It took me a year to get over her death! I spent 20 years living in this world in order to control my new powers with someone and I promised myself that I would protect my family from anything else."

I looked up at his crimson eyes to see that he was shock. My tears turned in to colorful gemstones as they fell to the ground. I quickly wiped my tears as I picked up the gems on the ground.

"If you don't have anything else to say, I guess that your silence means that this conversation is over." I said giving him one last glance. "I hope your satisfied with what you've missed in my life. And I hope you find Yukina soon...at least you still have someone to call family."

I walked up to the house, opening door as I stormed up to my room. Not caring if my father questioned my sudden burst at the door.

Hiei's POV

I watched go in her home, slamming the door shut behind her. I couldn't say anything after hearing the pain she felt about Lady Wakumi- her mother's passing. The only things that I can see in her eyes now when she told her past are anger, sadness and pain.

'Hayami doesn't deserve to go through this.' I thought as I turned around and was about to jump away until a hand was placed on my shoulder.

I looked behind me to see Hayami and Ranumi's stepfather. Ryuji Ezume.

"Before you go Hiei, I would like to have a word with you and I know you know what it is about." He said as he removed his hand from my shoulder.

I turned around to face him. "I can reassure you that I don't intend to hurt your daughter. But what I don't understand is why did she left and never bothered to see me again." I said,
