Once, in the Koorime islands -- a place where people  
                                                 were all Ice Demons... A koorime named Hina gave  
                                                 birth to two babies. One is an ordinary and healthy  
                                                 young baby girl but the other was said to be forbidden.  
                                                The baby boy was a fire demon. The elders said that the  
                                                 boy would bring destruction to their place and they  
                                                 should eliminate the child. Hina didn't agree, she doesn't  
                                                 want her child to be thrown down the floating island but  
                                                 she couldn't do anything. The elders ordered Hina's  
                                                 best friend, Rui to do the job of getting rid off the fire  
                                                demon. Hina produced two pearls for her two children,  
                                                one for the girl and for the boy. Before Rui would throw  
                                                the boy away, she gave him the pearl and told him,  
                                                "Promise me you'll survive and return to this Island.. and  
                                                take my life and destroy this island..." And the boy was  
                                                thrown down the island. The forbidden child was known  
                                                as Hiei.  
                                                One time, a bunch of thieves returned to their hideout  
                                                when one of them saw Hiei floating on the river. They  
                                                took care of him and as he grew, he became one of them  
                                                but a better thief. He likes to see blood on his blade/  
                                                katana and fond of hearing anyone shrieking in pain or  
                                                anyone dying. Everyday of his life, there's someone who  
                                                wants to kill him, take his life but they always failed.  
                                                When he grew up, the thieves that took care of him  
                                                got scared of him and didn't want his company anymore.  
                                                They said that he was a ruthless and heartless demon,  
                                                that I day he would kill them all. He knows when he is  
                                                not wanted so he left them, that's why he's a loner. The  
                                                pearl that her mother gave him made him calm and made  
                                                him feel safe.At first, the only thing he wanted to find was  
                                                the place of the Koorimes. But the youkais that wanted  
                                                him dead, fought seriously. His pearl fell to the cliff and  
                                                that's the second thing that he wanted to find.  
                                                In Makai, he heard that there's a doctor that can give  
                                                him a third eye --- JAGAN ---, it is an evil third eye that  
                                               allows him to see things that ordinary youkai can't see.So  
                                               he finds Shigure that helped him out. When he got the  
                                               Jagan, he quickly searched for the Koorime island and  
                                              when he found it, he went there.When the Koorimes saw  
                                              him,everyone got scared and nobody wants to talk to him  
                                              or see him. On his way, he found Rui, the one that threw  
                                              him out.He swore to kill all the koorimes but when he  
                                              saw Hina's grave and heard Rui said that Hina had a  
                                             daughter named Yukina. That she disappered few years  
                                             ago to find his twin brother and since then they never  
                                             heard news about her. He changed his mind..  
                                             When he knew that Yukina's his sister, he quickly  
                                             searched for her. He thought that she might be in  
                                             Ningenkai. And there, he crossed-path with Shuichi  
                                             Minamino-- the fox thief that got wounded in Makai  
                                             (Youko Kurama) that's hiding in a human body. And his  
                                             story goes on when he and Kurama and a youkai joined  
                                             forces and get Reikai's three valuable things : a sword, a  
                                            mirror and a ball-like thing. He fought with Yusuke  
                                            Urameshi but he was defeated and then on, he made  
                                            friends with him and became one of the Reikai Tanteis.  
                                            One of their missions, was to save a young girl named  
                                            Yukina. At that time he saw her sister but never told her  
                                            the truth-- that he was her brother.  
  
                                            As times passed, Hiei and the gang fought their enemies  
                                            one by one until one day , the three powerful beings in  
                                            Makai send them invitations to join them. Yusuke went 
                                            first to his father RAIZEN. Hiei went to see Mukuro.  
                                           At first, he hated her so much but after a fight with Shigure 
                                           that he almost died, thanks to Mukuro, he still lives. He 
                                           became Mukuro's right-hand man. And from that day on, 
                                           he's always with her. At the Makai tournament, Hiei fought  
                                           with Mukuro but had been defeated. At the end of the series, 
                                           he stayed in Makai with Mukuro.  
  
                                              
                ( I just don't know if he still goes back to Ningenkai to see Yukina )
