-1"Six months have passed since that day."

The little one whimpered and curled up in the corner of his dark and gloomy cell.

"And yet you haven't once tried to escape. Tell me, slave…why is that?"

He knew the question was not meant to be answered, and even if it was, he didn't want to, they both already knew the answer to that.

His body stiffened as the door to the cell opened, and he entered. He couldn't bare it anymore, he wanted to be with the fox, Yukina, and everyone else. For a moment he found himself asking why everything had to turn out like this, but he had already answered that question many times.

It's my fault he told himself as he watched the other walking toward him, that taunting smile playing upon his lips yet again. Oh how he hated that damned smile, he hated everything about that man.

"On your feet."

He knew better than to disobey this man, he'd be punished, but he didn't quite care enough about what happened to him anymore to bother pushing himself to his feet.

This angered the other, and he received a sharp blow to the head. IT felt as if his hair was being completely ripped out as the other pulled him up.

Then it happened. His head collided with the wall, and he could do nothing but watch as his blood splattered across the room.

Letting out a quiet whimper, he collapsed. He hadn't meant to, but he was dizzy, and he felt ill, but the other didn't seem to notice as he pulled him back to his feet by his hair yet again.

"You're really asking for it now, you little brat."

He watched the man's lips move, but he couldn't hear it. For a moment he wondered why.

Without another sound, he allowed the other to have complete control, and took every hit without the slightest struggle.

What does it matter anymore? Everyone's gone, and it's all because of me…

His vision began to blur, and everything got dark.

It's always because of me…everything is always my fault…

Flashes of the events that happened in the past few years plagued him.

Maybe Koenma was right…I did kill Kurama

He remembered being blamed for Kurama's death.

It was just three years later than what they thought it would be.

"Hiei, let's go." His eyes shot open at the sound of a familiar voice.

"Botan?" He called her name quietly, knowing better than to shout things out around here. They'd be caught.

"I'm here Hiei, now stand up." Her voice was so soft, so caring. When he finally did manage to spot her, he noticed the tears in her eyes.

It hit him like a brick to the side of his head, but instead of freaking out, he only smiled.

"I'm dead, right?"

"Yeah…"

"Where am I going?"

"…"

"Botan, where am I going? You know already, so tell me!"

"Home, Hiei. You're going home."

------

Okay…it's over. Go ahead, attack me with chainsaws and shit, I don't care. Everyone is DEAD, I cried too though…so…mneh!

OH, and incase any of you are wondering what Botan meant by home, she means Hiei gets to go be with Kurama and Yukina and all of them.

Koenma figures he's already been through enough.

So I guess technically it's a happy ending, Hiei finally gets to be with Shuuichi…everyone's gonna be happy…Um…I'm actually crying typing this so uh…I'm done now.
