The Caretakers
Chapter 2:
The Chaos
Kurama and Botan exited their rooms at the same time and looked at each other. Kurama was wearing a dark green robe and house shoes, while Botan wore a skinny strap lavender gown that was clinging to her body quite nicely, her hair was down, and she also wore some bunny slippers. Both of them blushed to themselves.
"Well, it appears we dressed for bed quite early don't you think Botan?" Kurama said looking at his watch, it was 7:30pm. He smiled.
"Well, I'm sure you and I are dressed for bed because we feel more comfortable wearing pajamas in the house." Botan answer with a giggle.
"Wow, that's exactly why I am wearing my pajamas." Kurama said surprised. "Well, that's one thing we have in common."
"Yeah, I guess." Botan said blushing. The two stopped talking when they heard a huge bang from upstairs in the attic.
"What was that?" Botan asked, fear was written all over her.
Kurama didn't even know himself. "I'm sure it's Hiei…hopefully doing something to make himself comfortable."
"Um, Kurama, actually, there's been an odd smell in my room. Believe it or not…it smells like…well I don't know but it's odd." Botan said looking at the fox demon with worry in her eyes.
"Isn't that strange, because in my room…it smells of dead bodies…" Kurama said. "But I covered it up with the smell of roses."
"You don't think Hiei's doing something bad with the attic do you?"
Possibly…Kurama thought in his mind. "I'm sure he's just doing something that has nothing to do with killing people."
"What?" Botan said shaking in fear.
"Nothing. Let's just go downstairs to relax." Kurama said putting his arm around her and leading her downstairs.
As soon as the two went downstairs, Kurama sat down on the couch and Botan went into the kitchen. Kurama grabbed the remote and turned on the t.v. Suddenly, he heard a noise of an creature that he hated most. He turned slowly to see a giant fat rat resting on the table next to him.
"AH!" Kurama screamed running around while the rat chased him.
"SOMEONE! PLEASE HELP ME! HELP ME! I'M SCARED OF RATS!" Just then Botan came into the living room.
"Kurama whats-OH MY GOSH! AH!" she shouted upon seeing the rat.
"Botan! Botan! Help! Get this fat piece of crap away from me!" Kurama shouted jumping up onto the couch.
"Kurama watch out!" Botan shouted as the rat jumped onto his leg.
"AHHHHH!" He shouted. "GET IT OFF ME!"
Botan didn't want to touch the creature but she had to help Kurama. Botan ran into the closet that was in the corner and found a broom. She raced back over to Kurama who was now holding back the rats mouth so it wouldn't bite him in the face.
"Kurama! Look out!" she shouted. Kurama looked at her and while she was about to hit the rat, it jumped away and she ended up hitting Kurama, knocking him out.
"Oops…sorry…" she said to the now unconscious Kurama. The rat was over on the other side of the room. Botan looked at it and it snarled at her.
"Jesus…please help me…" Botan said. The rat jumped at her but she swung at it, knocking it across the room.
The rat jumped up and tackled her biting onto the broom. Botan didn't know what to do, she was so scared. Though she hated to…she had no other choice.
"HIEI!" she shouted. "HIEI! PLEASE HELP ME!"
To her surprise, Hiei came to the stairway and looked at her. His eyes widened in shock as to what she was battling.
Holy shit. That rat is huge. He thought. He grabbed his sword and jumped off the stairs hovering over Botan and the rat.
"Ferry Onna, move!" he shouted. Botan pushed the rat off her with the broom and ran over to the other side of the room.
Hiei started swinging at it and chased it threw the kitchen and out the back door. He then came back into the living room and looked at Botan who was still freaked out.
"Onna, you should've been able to take care of that beast yourself." He said.
Botan looked to the ground. "I'm sorry to have caused you trouble Hiei. And thank you for helping me."
"Hn. Just don't tell anyone." He then looked at Kurama who had twirling eyes (anime like). He frowned. "Baka kitsune."
Botan giggled nervously. "Well, while I accidentally hit him with the broom while trying to hurt the rat."
Hiei snickered. "That's what happens to idiots who have fears." He then walked up the stairs.
"Thanks again Hiei!" Botan shouted happily. She walked over to Kurama and sat him up. She then grabbed the remote flicking on the t.v. She rested Kurama's head on her lap and flicked threw the channels until she crossed the news.
"Good evening Tokyo, I'm Aiko Sarota and I'm hear with your latest news. Just a few hours ago, three people went missing from Nobunaga Park. They go by the names Iwahoshi Menimo, Kyoshiro Baisho, and Takito Kubano. If you have any information on the whereabouts of these three please report it to the police station."
"Three people missing? Wow." Botan said. Just then she looked down and noticed Kurama was waking up.
"Wha…what's going on…OH MY GOD! WHERE'S THE RAT?" he shouted hopping up worried.
"Relax Kurama." Botan started. She pulling Kurama back down onto the couch putting his head back on her lap. "Hiei chased it out of the house. Now you just rest up. You took quite a hit to the head."
"Botan…you hit me in the head." He grumbled.
"And for that…I apologize my dear-est-Kur-am-a." she said placing out the last words.
Kurama just sighed. "How long have been out?"
"Not long, I say about…15 minutes." Botan said looking threw the channels again.
"Oh, well, Botan?" Kurama began. She looked at him smiling. "Why am I resting on your lap?"
"What? Your not comfortable there?" Botan asked cocking her head to the side.
"No. That's the thing. I'm very comfortable here." He admitted.
"Aw. Kurama likes my lappy." Botan teased. Kurama blushed.
"Well, I'm hungry. What you want to eat?" Botan asked lifting his head up.
"Um, I could go for some rice balls." Kurama said alittle disappointed that she moved.
"My specialty! And for desert, how about a cake?" she shouted with glee.
"Sounds wonderful. Need some help preparing anything?" he offered.
"No thanks! Just leave everything to me!" she skipped towards the kitchen.
Kurama just shrugged his shoulders and began to look threw channels on the t.v. Sometimes he didn't understand that deity, but for some reason she was such wonderful company.
Aww…Shuichi's got a crush…you big fat idiot…Youko said.
"Shut up! Stay out of my life!" he shouted to himself.
Well damn…don't be so angry at me…just because your scared to touch a woman in her nice areas. Youko teased.
"Shut up. Please Youko just go away." Kurama said laying down and stretching out on the couch.
As you wish faggot. Youko said again. Kurama growled. One day, he was going to make it so Youko could never talk again.
A hour had passed and Botan came out of the kitchen wearing an apron that said 'housewife to a wonderful man'. Kurama stared at her and chuckled to himself. Botan didn't notice, she was too busy setting up the table.
"So I take it dinner's ready?" Kurama asked standing up and walking over to her. Putting a hand on her back.
"Oh, why yes it is! The cake's still though." She said with a smile. Kurama smiled as well. "Could you be a dear Kurama and call Hiei down for dinner?"
"Sure." Kurama walked over to the stairway. "HIEI! COME DOWN FOR DINNER!"
Hiei looked down the stairway behind him and shouted back. "ALRIGHT!"
"I want some dinner." A man over in the corner next to two more people stated.
"Silence!" Hiei shouted. "Boba. Lower the giant screw."
"Yes master Hiei." A big man wearing all black, his face covered by a mask said. His muscles were very large, and his name is assumed to be Boba. He walked over to a lever on the other side of the room and pulled it. Then a giant screw appears from the floor coming towards the three men. The noise it made was like 'ERWWWWWWWWWWWWW'.
"AHHH! I'M SORRY! SERIOUSLY! I'M SO VERY SORRY!" The man shouted in fear.
"Boba. Stop the screw."
"Yes Master Hiei." The big man said stopping the screw.
"I'll be back. I'm going for dinner. Boba. Watch the men." Hiei said walking downstairs.
"Yes Master Hiei." Boba said.
When Hiei got downstairs he saw Kurama at the table eating while Botan was setting other foods onto the table. He sat down next to Kurama and a moment later, Botan came and sat down.
She sighed tiredly. "Phew, that took a lot out of me." She looked at Hiei. "Glad to see you joined us Hiei."
"Hn. Whatever. Just feed me, ferry onna." Hiei said. Botan did as she was asked.
Kurama looked at Hiei. "Um Hiei, what was that noise I heard coming from the attic. It sounded like screaming and a loud noise that is hard to make out."
"Yes Hiei. What exactly did you do to the attic?" Botan asked looking at him in the face.
"Hn. Nothing. I certainly didn't turn it into a torture chamber." Hiei said. Botan and Kurama's eyes lit up.
"WHAT?" they said in a union.
"Nothing!" Hiei began nervously. "I was playing…I uhh…saw that on a movie…"
"Oh, phew." They both sighed. Then there was a ding noise coming from the kitchen.
"Oh, that's the cake! Be right back!" Botan said running into the kitchen.
A minute later Botan came out of the kitchen with a huge cake that had pink icing. Kurama's eyes widened with amazement. Hiei just stared at it.
"Well, who wants to cut it?" she said sweetly. Kurama grabbed a knife and cut into it when suddenly his worse nightmare popped out of it.
"AHHHHH!" Kurama shouted. It was another giant rat.
"eep, eeep, ep, eep!" It said. Translation: Revenge you son of a bitch!
"AHHHHHH!" They all screamed in a union. Even Hiei. Just then, lots of rats began coming out of the cake.
Kurama grabbed Botan's arm, and Botan grabbed Hiei's as they all ran into the closet in the living room. They heard the rats trying to get inside but to no avail. Botan was holding onto Kurama, who was holding onto her, and Hiei surprisingly was holding onto Botan. They all slumped down to the floor on top of Keiko and Yusuke's shoes, cuddled up in fear.
An hour had passed and the three were still inside the closet cuddled up. Were their lives going to be taken by an army of rats? No. It couldn't. Suddenly Hiei let go of Botan and stood up, peeking out the door key hole.
Hiei took a deep breath then shouted loudly. "BOBA!"
"Boba?" Botan and Kurama said at the same time.
"Yes. Boba. He's my servant." Hiei answered.
Hiei, Botan, and Kurama heard loud footsteps, a lot of commotion, and then a big BOOM. Botan held onto Kurama tighter, and Hiei took a deep breathe then slowly opened the door, but Botan grabbed his shirt.
"Hiei, please don't let those beasts in here." She begged. Kurama had his head against the back of hers and his arms wrapped around her stomach.
"I have to see if Boba is alright." Hiei said. He slowly opened the door to see all the rats laid out in the floor dead and Boba sitting on the couch with a rat killer bomb.
Hiei walked out with a smirk, followed by a still freaked out Botan and Kurama. They all looked around, all the rats were dead. Botan and Kurama sighed in relief, then they looked at Boba.
"This is Boba?" Botan asked, slightly scared. She grabbed hold to Kurama, who was looking at Boba in confusion.
"Boba scary." Botan said.
"Boba, come on, lets go back to the attic." Hiei said. Then he and Boba left upstairs. Botan and Kurama looked at each other.
"Well…" Botan began. "How about a scary movie to put us to sleep?"
