A Warm Compassion | A Hiei Love Story

Every Demon for themselves

Third POV

"The edge of Gandara, the land of Yomi." Hokushin said as soon as they can see the city ahead of them,

"Thanks for the escort." Yusuke said to him, "Be careful on your way back home."

"What?!" Hokushin said in disbelief to what he heard from his own new king, "I can't go back. By now, Yomi is surely aware of our King's death and as his offspring you'll be endanger as soon as you set foot in Gandara."

"Well duh, why do you think I wanna go in there alone." Yusuke said cockily as he pointed a thumb towards the city,

"As the heir to the throne you no longer represent only yourself." Hokushin reminded the son of his king, "And I have sworn to protect my land's new king."

Yusuke sighed. "Fine, you can tag along. But let me talk okay. We want to be as diplomatic as we can on this." He said, raising a hand in reassurance,

"Perfect time to say that, my king." He said,

"And why's that?" Yusuke asked,

"We should be careful of what we say from here on. When Yomi lost his sight he strengthen his other senses." Hokushin said in caution to Yusuke, "It has been said many times that Lord Yomi is capable of hearing every word uttered within his domain."

"Really, is that so?" Yusuke said with a smirk before taking a giant deep breath. "YOMI! YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!" He yelled, shocking Hokushin of seeing him disobeying the warning he just gave. "CAN YOU HEAR ME 'CAUSE I'M COMING, SO BOIL UP A KETTLE OF TEA, YOMI!!! You think he heard that?" He asked Hokushin after yelling his incoming arrival.

"Quite diplomatic sir." Hokushin said unsurely of what to say until he noticed Yusuke holding something. "By the way your highness, what is in your bag?" He asked,

"In this?" Yusuke said bringing up the sack in his hand,

"Yes. Somehow I have a bad feeling about it." Hokushin said feeling nervous of what is inside,

"You worry too much." Yusuke said before jumping down the cliff being followed by his monk demon trainer.

While inside of Gandara, Kurama and Yomi were watching the monitors to see Yusuke and his escort coming near the city.

"Kurama, this friend of yours seems rather... silly." Yomi said in slight amusement, "Can he really be the descendant of Raizen? But let's assume that it is true, doesn't his presence here confirm that Raizen is no more?" He asked,

"I suppose so." Kurama answered his assumption,

"Well then, I am eager to hear what Raizen's heir has to say to me." He said as turned to his elder demon advisor. "Yuda, prepare to welcome our guest in proper fashion." He ordered,

"Yes." Yuda said,

"Inform the sentries of the gate to give them no trouble when they arrived. Just measure Urameshi's energy at the door." Yomi addded,

"As you command sir." Yuda said as Yomi turned to his fox companion,

"Kurama, I want you to have your men ready standing at the ready in the next room. Bring Wakumi's daughter as well." Yomi said, surprising the redhead in hearing this. "If he tries anything, I won't hesitate to issue the assassination order." He said as he turned around to leave, having Kurama slightly glare at him for bringing his beloved to witness such cruelty. "And I know as chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, you won't hesitate to act on it." With that, he walked away as Kurama stared back at the screen in concern of what Yusuke has in mind,
