Hiei's Harem - Pt. 1 - Establishment

Scene 7 ------------------------------------------- The River's Edge


* Since his jagan is open, guarding against any demons that would attempt to sneak up on him, Hiei feels Sarista approaching. When she stops at the edge of the woods she watches Hiei scrubbing his pants vigorously. He half glances toward her as she notices that his shirt is already laid out on a large nearby rock to dry.


Hiei- Go back where you came from! I'm in no mood to deal with you..!


* Sarista flinches slightly at his angered tone, then she gathers herself and goes over to kneel beside him.


Sarista- Why are you washing these? It's not like you were wearing them when we screwed around.


* Hiei's comment is stolen when Sarista snatches the pants and takes over the cleaning. Then he catches her scent, blinks aside, and growls.


Hiei- Didn't you hear me?!

Sarista- Of course, Master. But this isn't your job now.. We will take care of your washing and your..

Hiei- I don't need taken care of! I've raised myself my whole life!


* The Fire demoness looks toward him in time to catch him sniffing toward her again.


Sarista- No, you haven't caught me yet.


* The apparition huffs and turns away, clenching his fists.


Hiei- Just keep the d--- pants.. I have plenty more back..!

Sarista- You were a loner then, huh? A rogue?


* For some reason Hiei doesn't respond. Sarista goes back to her task.


Sarista- You are free to leave, M'Lord.. We have no say in whether you stay here with us or not.


* Hiei turns to glare at her.


Hiei- And what do you think will happen to you? To the others?


* Sarista shrugs, then stands, and moves to lay the pants out on the other side of the drying rock.


Sarista- You already know the answer to that.. Of course, the boys will do their best to try to protect us.. But you know how weak and inexperienced they are.


* Sarista crosses her arms, but keeps herself facing away from Hiei.


Sarista- Eventually they will either be killed or.. die with the rest of us..


* Hiei looks toward her again.


Hiei- But I've.. marked you..


* The demoness sighs and raises a hand to touch his mark. Hiei almost staggers as the brunt of her sadness floods his mind through their developing bond.


Sarista- I will probably be found alone here in this canyon by other rogues and killed.. But I guess this is the price I'll pay for my treachery against you.

Hiei- Treachery?


* She feels Hiei's jagan brush her mind and grants him full access to the devious plot she laid. The sensation is brief then a short silence resides between them as Hiei processes what he's learned.


Hiei- You.. knew I was..? Even from that distance?

Sarista- Gamock was old and dying.. If my sisters and I.. and our sons weren't claimed by another.. We would have died not long after him.. It was a gamble I..

Hiei- D---, Woman! Didn't Gamock realize this?

Sarista- Of course he knew.. He didn't care.. But I couldn't allow them all to die.

Hiei- Hn.. You really are a full blooded Fire b----.


* Her eyes flare a bit as she glances toward him.


Sarista- I'm the Alpha Female! Those girls' fates were in my hands.. There were times I had to just stand by and watch Gamock beat on them.. or pleasure them.. But I could not stand by and allow them to die just to stroke the b------'s pride!


* She lowers her eyes again.


Sarista- I would rather you banish me as punishment.. if you would only accept them..

Hiei- Enough of your babbling, Woman.


* By his tone Sarista knows that he has calmed down some. Once more, he forgets her heat and goes over closer to her.


Hiei- I have honor, as well.. I won't punish you for taking the risk you felt you had to.. J-Just.. why the.. h--- did it h-have.. to be..? Ahhh, d--- your.. still in..


* Sarista looks at Hiei as his nostrils flare, then calmly turns to lean against the rock facing him. Hiei feels himself being drawn closer to her again and struggles to resist.


Hiei- I.. d-don't.. understand.. Explain t-to me.. why I can't seem to.. ig-ignore.. your heat.. I've n-never been so..

Sarista- You are part Fire, correct?


* Hiei forces himself to look away, tries to will himself to blink away but his body won't listen.


Hiei- Hn..

Sarista- Have you ever been around another Fire demon in heat?


* Hiei shakes his head, partially in answer to her question but mostly to try to clear his head.


Hiei- I'm.. forbidden.. N-No self-re-specting.. demon w-would..

Sarista- So, you think I have no pride in myself?


* The Koorime snaps his eyes up to meet hers.


Hiei- Don't put words in my..!

Sarista- If it were only myself.. in this mess.. I would have taken your initial rejection and moved on.


* The surge of anger at her words gives him the strength to move away from her. Since there's hardly any breeze now he only has to put some distance between them for his mind to clear.


Hiei- Let me make a couple things clear, Sarista..!


* He scowls briefly at knowing her name so well already.


Sarista- I am listening, Lord Hiei.

Hiei- I've come to know a few things about looking after.. friends.. and family.. There was a time when I would have taken my pleasure from you and left without any remorse or concern of whether you lived or perished.. This jagan eye that I use is not natural.. I wasn't born with it..

Sarista- To have one implanted is quite painful, I've heard.

Hiei- The operation was the worst pain to date that I have ever endured.

Sarista- They're also hard to master.. But the power they can give tempts many..


* He half glances toward her, being careful to avoid her beautiful, ruby-colored eyes.


Hiei- It wasn't the power that enticed me.. It was my desire to find that Koorime Island.. and my birth mother.


* Sarista settles down to sit with her back against the drying rock as Hiei continues. She finds herself becoming totally enamored by the sound of his voice and the mystery of his life.


Hiei- I found the d--- island.. and her grave.. She couldn't live with the pain of having me torn from her arms and thrown off that island like trash..


* Hiei and Sarista both look to the side when they hear a sharp gasp. Klarice sinks to her knees.


Klarice- Forgive my intrusion.. I only meant to come draw water.


* Hiei notices the two water buckets beside her and huffs.


Hiei- Fine! Gather your water then!


* Klarice hurries to the river.


Klarice- Forgive me for asking.. But your mother.. Her name was Hina?


* Hiei looks back at the aqua-haired hybrid.


Hiei- Hn.

Klarice- I remember my mother telling me of her awful story.. I was too young at the time to really understand what was going on.. Only two years old at the time.. We all believed you to be dead.

Hiei- A larger river than this broke my fall.. Your mother?

Klarice- Hai.. Her name was Myra.. It was my Aunt Ren who was forced to.. drop you.


* Klarice glances nervously toward Hiei.


Klarice- That incident weighed heavily on my mother, especially.. They didn't know of her own affair because I was born a girl.. But the fear that my heritage would someday be detected became too much for us to even stay on the island.


* Hiei scowls and Klarice quickly turns back to fill her second bucket.


Klarice- If I m-may ask, Master.. How is your sister? Yukina, is it?

Hiei- Hn. She is well and living in Human World now.

Sarista- So you used the jagan to find her?

Hiei- Hn.


* Hiei and Sarista watch Klarice hurry away to take the water back to the encampment. Hiei then sighs and paces back over to lean against the rock beside Sarista.


Hiei- I won't bore you with my whole pathetic life..


* Sarista looks up at him.


Sarista- None of us will judge you here.. You have earned the right to be our Alpha, Lord Hiei.


* Hiei looks down at her. His nose twitches at her scent, but he does his best to ignore the effects it's having on him as he continues talking.


Hiei- I actually am a Lord, Sarista.. I earned the position of Lord Mukuro's heir and Second In Command.. So I do know all about being in a leadership position.


* He pauses briefly to press back a sudden thought of how he could position the willing beauty beneath him. Sarista laughs softly a bit as she nods.


Sarista- Word did reach us that Demon World had been.. restructured, so to speak, since that Royal Tournament last year.. The Three demons that struggled against each other for centuries are now Territorial Lords under that new King.. Correct?

Hiei- Hn.. Lord Mukuro is one of them.. The other two are Lord Yomi and Lord Yusuke Urameshi.

Sarista- Two names..?


* Her eyes widen and Hiei almost gauges his arms with his claws to control himself.


Sarista- One of Demon World's Lords is a.. human?


* Hiei snorts and waves a hand dismissively.


Hiei- Long story about that one..

Sarista- And you know them all personally?


* Hiei's nose twitches as her excitement spikes her scent a bit more. He rubs it a moment, then nods, and looks down at her. The apparition almost gets lost in the excited gllimmer in her eyes.


Sarista- This is better than I could have ever..


* The Fire demoness clears her throat and lowers her eyes once more. Finally, she nods and looks toward the river. Hiei hears the sorrow in her voice when she speaks again.


Ssarista- (Quietly) I.. understand now.. why you must leave us.. I only felt your strength and it clouded my judgment.. The shame will lay solely on me.


* Sarista wipes her cheeks then stands. As she moves to leave past him Hiei's hand shoots out to grab her arm quickly. She starts with wide eyes when he next pulls her closer against himself a bit harder than he intended to. Sarista watches his intense red eyes bore into her own, unable to look away herself.


Hiei- S-so.. you were s-supposed to tell me.. why the h--- you.. get to me like this..


* She gives him a small smirk.


Sarista- Fire.. can't resist Fire,.. M'Lord.

Hiei- Hn.


* Hiei barely controls himself as he reaches up and pulls her mouth down to his. Once more, albeit a bit more easily, her scent, taste, and touch work together to override his restraint yet again. The next thing Sarista knows, she is spun around and pinned against the rock. Although Hiei is somewhat shorter, he finds himself at the perfect level to lavish her ample breasts that are soon 'somehow' exposed. Sarista closes her eyes, feels that Hiei is much more willing this time, and allows herself to submit readily to his dominance.
