Botan

The wind blew softly, it was midnight and the moon was full. It was a strange event though. The moon was blood red, and it would stay that colour, and full, for a whole month; it was some demon holiday. It reminded her of two different people. Two of her friends, they had blood red eyes, and she couldn't help but miss them. She ran away for a reason though. So she couldn't just go back because she missed them.

She sighed and watched some snow blow by. It was December 1st today; she had had a fight with her brother, Soyuko, and her mother, Siyam, about going away for the next few years. Not her, them. They were both going to university in America, but they didn't want her to come. So she left them, and she didn't plan to go back for Christmas. Why would she? They obviously didn't want her there.

Sure, she could have just gone to stay with her friends in town, Yukina, Keiko, Shizuru, Yusuke, and Kuwabara would let her stay with them as long as she needed, but it didn't feel right. If she was going to be alone for the next 4 years, why shouldn't she start now?

It was dangerous for her to be out here, sure it was some demon thing, she didn't know what, she just knew she was risking her life walking around like this. Unprotected, and completely alone. She wagered that she'd be safer on the bad side of town, but her mother and brother won't care if she doesn't come back.

She sighed and climbed up a tall tree, and sat down on a sturdy branch that was hidden so no demons could find her. She allowed herself to sleep for a couple hours.

Soyuko and Siyam

They had watched Botan run out of the house this morning, she hadn't taken their idea of going away for schooling while she stayed here very well. They hadn't expected her to, which was why they had suggested it. But they thought she'd have been back by nightfall.

"Soyuko, if she doesn't return tomorrow by noon, call the police. Have them arrest her for something." He nodded to his mother and they went to bed.

Everyone else

They had been at Genkai's, training all day. Well Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei and Kurama were training; Shizuru and Keiko talked to Yukina and Genkai about having a Christmas party.

"It'll be great! Botan can help with decorations and music. She'd love it, I know she would. She always talks about Christmas spirit. I'll call her right now and ask." Keiko pulled out her cell phone and dialed Botan's number; it rang twice before Soyuko answered the phone, 'Hello?' "Hi, is Botan there Soyuko?" 'Ummm, no...s-she went out...f-for a while, I'll tell her to call when she come home.' "Okay, thanks, bye." She hung up the cell phone, "Well Botan's not home." They all sighed.

"Wonder where she went? She wouldn't go shopping without us, she wouldn't go on a hike without the guys, she won't go to a movie without dragging one of us with her..." Shizuru tapped her chin as she listed all the things Botan wouldn't do alone. "Maybe she ran away? Her brother sounded upset..." The girls paused for a moment, considering it, then went "Naaaaahhhhhhh, she wouldn't do that." At the same time and started laughing at the thought.


This is my longest story (over 30 pages!) and I hope you like it. Umm, and when I say over 30 pages, that's not including the five more chapters I have to write to finnish it. I'll update sooner if you review. And, um, I should mention, it's a cross over with Naruto, and it's got a song in later chapters by eminem, there's only like two swears tops, but I thought I'd just warn you anyways. I hope you like (The story moves at a much better pace later on!)

Knock knock!

It's-a

It's-a who?

It's-a no-mine!
