Chapter 1 - This Is the Night

[size=2" face="Book]Disclaimer: I do not own YuYu Hakusho or the song "This is the Night."[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]This is my first songfic,to Clay Aiken’s "This is the Night." It’swritten in Hiei’s point of view. I put one line of the songin brackets *[ ]* because it doesn’t quite fit with thestory line – you’ll see when you get there – butthe rest of the song was perfect, so I had to use it. ~_^[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]First off, remember whenYukina was kidnapped by Tarukane and the Tuguro brothers? AndYusuke, Kuwabara, and Botan went to save her, while Hiei went byhimself? Well, that’s where this story comes in: when Hieiis hopping from tree to tree and the others are on their way.What would have happened if Hiei had reached Yukina before theothers did? Would this be the night for Hiei...?[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]The air wasn’t cold,but I was.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]Lonely, too.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]Solitude was the onefeeling I’ve always felt, ever since I lost her company.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]Yukina...[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]Whether it be good or bad,I always carried solitude within my soul. Right now, it was bad.I continued on my way through the trees at a quick pace. I had toreach Yukina as soon as possible...[/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]When theworld wasn't upside down
I could take all the time I had
But I'm not gonna wait
When a moment can vanish so fast
[’Cause every kiss is a kiss you can never get back][/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]At my speed, I was at thetower within a matter of seconds. Sitting on a nearby ledge, sothat I could see into the window but was invisible to her eyes, Iexamined her sacred image.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]Although our eyes were thesame color, hers were larger, more innocent, and more peaceful.But now they screamed of pain and fear. Not physical pain, butmental. The worst kind of pain.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]I had to save her – Ijust had to. Of course I wanted to, so much...[i]
[/i][/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]Lift meup
In your eyes
If you told me that is what heaven is
Well, you'd be right
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]I jumped, right onto thewooden bars covered with spell cards. They sent a continuouselectric shock through my body, but I didn’t care. Myattention was focused on her.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]She gasped when I hit thewindow, and looked up.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"Get down fromthere, you’re going to die!"[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"..." [/i]Ididn’t budge. I merely shook my head, for I was at a loss ofwords.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]She peered up at meworriedly. [i]"Please...don’t do this just to saveme..." [/i]She tried to lift her hand up – and push meto safety, I suppose – but recoiled when the electricityzapped her...[i]
[/i][/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]When theanswer to all my dreams
Is as close as a touch away
Why am I here holding back what I'm trying to say?[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]Finally, the words came. [i]"Ihave to save you."[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"No...not if itmeans you-"[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"I [/i][b][i]won’t[/i][/b][i]let them hurt you anymore!!" [/i]Some way or another, agreat power surged through my veins. I was able to pull my swordout of its sheath, and in one swift motion, slice right throughthe barrier that held Yukina and I apart...[i]
[/i][/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]Lift meup
In your arms
If you told me that is what heaven is
Well, you'd be right
Hold me close
To your heart
I would go with you to the ends of the Earth and we'll fly
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]I awoke on the floor, hertroubled eyes looming above me. I tried to sit up, but she gentlypushed me down.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"You’ve beenbadly hurt. You shouldn’t get up yet."[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]A few precious secondspassed, looking into her eyes. [i]"Are you okay?"[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]She nodded, leaned back,and looked down. [i]"Thank you."[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"No need to thankme. I had to..."[/i][/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]
This is the night where we capture forever
And all our tomorrows begin
After tonight we will never be lonely again[/i][/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]
Lift me up
In your arms
If you told me that is what heaven is
Well, you'd be right
Hold me close
To your heart
I would go with you to the ends of the Earth and we'll fly
I've been waiting forever for this[/i][/size]

[size=2" face="Book]Those eyes were grateful,but still sad. And I knew what to do to make they light up withjoy.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]What to do, what to say,what secret to tell.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]But I shouldn’t.Wouldn’t. Couldn’t.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book]But I did. For once,compassion took over. I sat up against the pain and wrapped myarms around her. She gasped and tensed.[/size]

[size=2" face="Book][i]"Don’t worry,it’s okay..." [/i]She relaxed somewhat, as a singletear fell onto her kimono. [i]"...Sister..."[/i][/size]
[size=2" face="Book][i]This isthe night...[/i][/size]
