A Warm Compassion | A Hiei Love Story

Wakumi's, Ryuji's and Genkai's Ruse

Hayami's POV

Ranumi and Kurama got the two keys from the two kidnappers who are both on the ground as we entered the first two doors and came to a stop.

"What is it?" Botan asked as she carried the briefcase in her hands,

"Another note." I said as I took it off the doorframe, "It says that if we entered without Yanagitsuwa's permission, Yusuke will be killed before we could even get to him."

"Let's just ignore that." Kuwabara suggested as we looked at him dumbfounded, "I mean what happens if this note is any different from the last one."

"Still, we need to stay cautious about this." Kurama said to him, "Who knows what lies inside the other side and what of Yusuke's condition if we entered without his permission."

"Guess we'll just have to wake him up." Ranumi said as we go back to the hallway, back to Yana who is still on the ground,

I wasted no time and created and bubble of water and splashed it onto his face in which caused him to cough and wake up.

"Hayami!" Both Botana and Ranumi scolded me,

"What? Now he's awake." I said bluntly,

"Yes but you didn't have to drown him." Botan said,

"Well, at least he's awake." Kurama said as Ranumi got rid of the water that was splashed on him. "Nap time is over." She said to Yana who blush at her,

"Looks like you guys beat my old pal, Kaito." Yana said and chuckled in amusement,

"So far, we have been successful in opening two of the three door that will us to the subsequent room." Kurama said as he showed the two keys the got,

"Don't tell me that's the reason why you guys woke you up." He said,

"We woke you up because of this warning." I said and showing his the note in my hand, "Saying that Yusuke dies if we opened the door without your approval."

"That is a good reason." Yana said, smirking and looking at me like I'm a piece of meat. Perverts.

"If you know what's good for you, you will give us your approval." Hiei said blocking my view of him, "Unless you harbor a death wish if you keep looking at my girlfriend like that." He growled upon saying,

"May I remind you that those kind of tactics don't work here, Hiei. So keep your mouth shut and do exactly what I tell you." Yana said making Hiei growl in annoyance,

I grabbed his right wrist tight to prevent him from lashing out. Lala also growled from Hiei's shoulder.

"It really chaps my high that we have to stand here and swallow this dweeb's abuse." Kuwabara said making the man chuckle in amusement but let us follow him to the next room. "Now what's going on." He said,

"Interesting." Kurama said as we all noticed seven different colored staircase.

"Geez this place is big." Kuwabara said, "You got your own stair museum."

"Yusuke is on the next floor up, but each on of you has got to take a different staircase to get to him." Yana explained,

"What?" Kuwabara asked in frustration,

"What's your reason for separating us?" Ranumi asked as Kurama placed his hand on her shoulder,

The boy chuckled. "My reason? It's like the old saying goes: That's for me to know and for you to find out." He said,

"Listen weasel-" Kuwabara was was cut off by Lala poking his head, "What the- What was that for Lala?!" He said to my spirit who made a scoff and flew back to Hiei's shoulder and rested her head on his, "Why you little-"
