Hidden Kindness

The man who looks like a clown left and there she saw the Golden Seal radar is moving west which then means that the clown has what she came for.

*You may want to come out Miss.*

That gentle voice interrupted her reverie. She slowly peek if she is really that screwed. Blinking in surprise, yes the man whom she assumed that pulled her out of her reverie is standing infront of her.

~Am I that senseless? How come I didn't...~

The man cleared his throat and spoke in a polite manner, *It seems that you're new here.*

She can only nod in agreement and decided to feel care free before the man.

*Hai! I am Botan.

She muttered with perky attitude.

He turned away from her and introduced himself.

*Just call me Ruu. You may want to stay with me for the night? It's not a bad offer for an astray cat.*
He turned to face her with such a smile that any woman would swoon but she is not just any woman so she did not. Besides, she get used to seeing HANDSOME men. But his smile was enough to betray herself. She nodded and blushed without realizing.

He find her amusing so he teased her, *Since the astrayed cat have agreed. You might want to follow me instead of just standing there stunned quite blushing. Let's go.*
His bruised face didn't pass unnoticed to her.

~Now, I have an idea in repaying his kindness. Just like Yusuke, always getting bruised. When will they go after me here? Kuwabara... Yusuke... Hiei, not that much will he care to... Kurama, yes! His brain will be a great use.~

*Botan, let's go!*
She heard him and so she ran after him to catch up with him as well.

The Reikai Tantei are attentively watching the scene. They were upset at her decision but Koenma were able to brought out the positive side of it.

Koenma told them proudly, *Trust me! She has a good idea! Either him or the clown like has the Golden Seal that's why she decided to go with him.*

He looked over from Yusuke and something with a pissed off face is in him then to Kuwabara, who's eyebrows were twitching then to Hiei, who has the look, *who cares with her?* then to Kurama who has his eyes shut.

Yusuke could not hold his outburst anymore.

He thought of it first, ~Could I? Nope! Botan need us. I should...~

*Just watching her here will do nothing! Now! Lead us to the portal! You could care less but we, we couldn't!*

That mad outburst pulled him out of his reverie and decided to claim what is his.

He argued, *That was me who supposed to burst like that Kuwabara! I WAS SUPPOSE TO SAY THOSE WORDS TO THE BRAT'S FACE!*

And the argument began. Koenma decided not to intervene. He will just have to wait until it is over and he will lead them to the portal. They didn't notice, except for Hiei that Kurama is loosing his patience.

*Stop arguing! This will just eat up our time unless you would still want to continue, Hiei and I will go on ourselves. Mind showing us the portal?*

The first sentence of Kurama is enough for them to stop dead on their tracks.
