Scene 19

Scene 19 ------------------------------------------- Three Days Later

* After travelling steadily, but slowly through sparsely populated areas to avoid unwanted attention, the group of rogues finally take a break when Sabaktu collapses. Hiei just has time to snatch Jiro from him as he falls to his knees.

Ashuru- Boss!!

* Kichiro and Dasan, who were a little ways ahead chatting, turn around. They come back quickly when they see Hiei checking Sabaktu.

Kichiro- Who touched him?!
Ashuru- Nobody. The little b---- just collapsed.

* Hiei glances up.

Hiei- He's slipping into hibernation...

* Kichiro hesitates, then looks around at the other three demons.

Kichiro- Spread out and keep watch... We'll rest here for tonight.

* Hiei's four-day-old twins dig their tiny claws into his cloak as he makes their older brother more comfortable. Kichiro opens his third eye to examine Sabaktu calmly a moment. But he doesn't like what he finds.

Kichiro- (Quietly) The boy's not well.

* Hiei rolls his eyes.

Hiei- No f---ing s---, Einstein.

* Kichiro tilts his head a little confused. Hiei silently berates himself for using the line that he's heard Yusuke say too many times. The koorime shakes his head.

Hiei- Nothing, never mind...
Kichiro- I meant... He's not going to live long after he has his b------.

* Dasan looks up at his leader.

Dasan- Is there something I can do, 'Chiro?
Hiei- No... The Master is correct...

* Hiei lays a hand on Sabaktu's bulging belly when the boy's eyes fully shut. The two demons then watch Hiei move a flap of Sabaktu's dirty blue yukata aside. When they see the mark Dasan looks back up at Kichiro.

Dasan- A claim mark...
Kichiro- D---... His claimer is dead?

* Hiei just nods, not wanting to give out any more information than necessary. Kichiro looks at Dasan.

Kichiro- I smell water nearby, Dasan. Go get a cool rag for the boy... We don't want him overheating in this afternoon sun... He's part koorime, rermember.

* Dasan bows then blinks away. Kichiro squats down beside Hiei.

Kichiro- There's nothing we can do...
Hiei- I know this... I've dealt with it since we left...

* Hiei clamps his mouth shut with a quiet growl.

Kichiro- (Quietly) Satjiyu's?

* Hiei looks up quickly and notices Kichiro's half open jagan.

Kichiro- Serve me well and his remaining time will be as comfortable as I can make it.

* After a moment Hiei looks back down at Sabaktu.

Hiei- I already agreed to that... humiliation... back at the cave... I also know that you have no intention of allowing me to return to...

* Kichiro places a hand on Hiei's head quickly.

Kichiro- (Quietly) The rest of these morons have no idea who you are. For my safety I prefer to keep it that way, Shiyounin... Do you understand that?

* When Hiei finally nods, Kichiro begins to stroke his ebony spikes. The koorime looks away, but doesn't protest the "handling".

Kichiro- I thought I recognized this mark on your head... I knew that rogue well enough...
Hiei- The b------ is dead.
Kichiro- By your hand, no doubt.
Hiei- No... By his.

* Hiei looks back down at Sabaktu, then leans to caress one of his pale cheeks.

Kichiro- He killed his own claimer?
Hiei- Hn... He did it to... free us...

* Kichiro looks at Hiei, but just stands up. Dasan returns.

Dasan- Here, Shiyounin.

* Hiei glares up at the mage briefly as he takes the damp cloth.

Hiei- Shi d--- it...
Kichiro- We're only a couple hours from home, we can afford to camp here tonight. Rest and nurse your little brats,.. Shi.

* Dasan follows Kichiro off as Hiei bends to begin swabbing Sabaktu's face. When Kichiro sits on a dead fallen tree several feet away Dasan remains standing, studying his boss.

Kichiro- What now, Dasan?
Dasan- (Quietly) When the boy dies... won't you lose some of your leverage over...?
Kichiro- (Quietly) By the time Blueboy has his halfbreed mutt, we'll have Shi... You remember how to make those collars Satjiyu showed you, right?

* Dasan nods. Kichiro does as well. Hiei glances toward them briefly.

Kichiro- (Quietly) We're going to make good money off of that koorime... and his little mutts for a very, very long time, Das... Trust me, I know what I'm doing.

* Dasan glances toward Hiei as the koorime leans to brush his hibernating son's lips. The mage then grins and sits down beside Kichiro.

Kichiro- (Quietly) I'd say the boy has one, possibly two months left... By that time, Shi will be all ours... I got some big plans, Dasan.
Dasan- Too bad the boy's going to die... A Father/Son working team would be...

* Kichiro cuffs Dasan up side his head.

Kichiro- Shut up, you moron... (Quietly) Besides, I told you. Shi has those two babies.
Dasan- (Quietly) Ahhh... Planning for the future... Now I see...

* Kichiro rolls his eyes. He then looks to check on Hiei to find him nursing his twins now. The way Hiei is hugging them lets Kichiro know that the koorime's probably got excellent hearing.
