Hiei looked at her out of the corner of his eyes when she spoke. It wasn't the most obvious question to ask but he had nothing against answering it. "His name is Alastor," Hiei replied simply. Alastor was a demon of control and vengeance. The only reason he'd come to the human side was because the other demons pissed him off. That was their big mistake. Alastor had found Hiei with the same goal he had: kill off as many demons as possible, until there aren't any left. With that goal and his powers, Hiei had become a formidable Hunter. Ironically, no demons were ever sent after him specifically. Most of the time, they didn't know how their demons were just dropping dead in hoards. Hiei didn't leave witnesses.<br/><br/>As they continued walking, they found themselves moving into the more beat up parts of town. Every building was at least a little smashed in, and people and demons alike had cleared out of the area. Hiei was leading her to the spot where he'd met Yami. Despite what he'd told her earlier, a little more had happened than just an exchange of respects.<br/><br/>---------------------<br/><br/>As Hatsu had expected, the wounds were fake. Well, at least the really serious ones. Sam was still scratched up a bit. "I think I'm going to train on my own," Hatsu voiced. "Yami has a lot he can teach me, and I'd like to spend the month training with him. Let's meet up here when the month is over," Hatsu suggested. "And maybe we should warn the other Hunters so they can start training too. Otherwise, they'll all die in the crossfire."
