Botan The Divinity of Happiness

Chapter 11 - Help Needed Here!

"Grr where's Botan?" Yusuke shouted and looked around to see no one but the group along with a few other people going down the slopes.

"I told her-" Kurama stopped to smile at Botan as he spotted her at the entrance. She had on a big heavy coat, with a beanie hat and thick boy jeans.

"Konnichiwa!" Botan ran over to the group. But before she reached the group, wearing all that clothing, she tripped landing in the snow face first.

"Ha ha..." Was all Botan heard from everybody and she smiled. Why did she smile? Because she was happy her friends were happy.

"Alright?" Kurama asked, not shocking Botan a bit. Of course, who else would it be helping her up? With a smile, she nodded.

"Ok! Lets hit it then." Kurama helped her up and turned to the group as they agreed and rooted on.

"Hold on, hold on." They heard someone say clearly in English to them, as if someone had hitchhiked along with them. They turned around...

"Where do you think you're going?" The guy who had called to their attentions said rudely. "This is OUR slope. We run this slope, so you better take it over to some other slope."

The tantei looked at the non look alike, quadrupled group. "Since you're some old newbies, suggest you take it to the jr. slope." He said with a smirk.

Hiei stepped up, "Does this so called SLOPE have your names on it?" The group looked at each other and then back at Hiei.

"Hey, aren't you supposed to be at the might midget slope?" The leader of the group said. This slope is too dangerous for infants." One of the others said, making everyone laugh.

"Hey! Hiei might be a small shrimp, but he'll kick your asses in a quick second!" Kuwabara shouted, making them take a small step back. Then he turned to Hiei, "Don't take it as a compliment."

Hiei narrowed his eyes, "That is true.." He turned to the group, "But I'm going down whatever slope I please." He hoped on a snowboard, knowing how to strap, he took off.

"Weh-well!" The leader shouted. "Someone go after him." He said, making the blond spiked haired guy follow. "So maybe he can go, but none of you!" The leader said, making Yusuke step up now.

"Listen you bastard, this dude paid over 200 bucks to get in this mountain side, and caused me to put 15% into it! I'm going down whatever slope I want to too. And if you think not, you're wrong."

Yusuke shoved one of the other ones out the way and put his snowboard on. "Nothing you guys are going to do about it either." He took off too.

"Grr!" The leader rubbed his face roughly. "Someone go get him! And kick his ass good!" He shouted kicking up some snow, then got in Kuwabara's face.

"So what now?" He said back in his low tone. "You're going to let out your lecture and go?" Kuwabara snarled. "Well, if you are.. you're going to have to handle this guy." He made the buffed guy step up.

"Hey, I can take this fat guy anytime. But I'm not doing a lecture all I'm saying is..." Kuwabara paused and stepped into the leader's face, "MOVE OUT MY WAY PUNK!" The leader stepped to the side and pointed so the buff guy would follow Kuwabara.

Then the leader turned to Kurama and Botan, "Who's next?" He stepped up to Kurama and Botan. "Because.. whoever is, they're gonna have to deal with me." He nodded.

Kurama looked at Botan to see she wasn't happy or sad. She was frowning, with a HUGE glare sitting on her face!

Kurama looked back at the leader and saw a name tag that said, Mike. "Ok big Mike. Wanna -try- take me on?" Kurama lifted his eyebrows. The leader crossed his arms.

Kurama stepped up closer to Mike's face, "Boy, I'll take out my thorn whip and when I'm finished with you, you'll be in thousandths." Kurama grunted as his eyes started to change golden.

The leader punked out and backed up. "Ok. Just.. get away from me dude!" He took a step out of Kurama's way as Kurama put on a snow board and went down the hill.

The leader was pissed, he grunted and sighed.. at the same time! Then he noticed the ferry girl, with her hood on, staring at him with a low faced glare.

"What are you looking at?" He stepped up to Botan. "Aren't you going to make your big speech too and try scaring me off?" He quirked his brows. "Well guess what.. I'm not scared of girls." He smirked.

"That's.. I.. me either." She said looking around to see what to say. "I'm not scared of you either!" She said with hesitation in her tone.

"Oh really." He crossed his arms again, "Looks like it. I can see it in your eyes." He said closing his eyes.

Botan stood still and looked around stupidly until she tried walking by. "Nu-uh." The leader grabbed her by her heavy snow coat and pulled her back. "You didn't wimp me off yet."

She sighed and looked to see the group down at the bottom of the slopes fighting the other group. Then she turned back to the guy, blocking her way to the slopes.

"Well if you would just move out the way I would really like that." She said in her regular tone. "Thank you." She started to shove him out the way.

He shoved her back, "That's supposed to scare me!?" He shouted in her face as she closed her eyes from her dangerously face to face contact.

"Ok."

"Ok what?!" He shouted and stepped away. "By the way, why do you have that big old hood coat on!" He jerked the hood off her head.

"W-woah...." He stared at her hair. "What the hell are you? A witch?" He said stepping back more, slowly. Then other people started to look at her with a weird look.

"Fucking Kami! A witch!" The guy tripped trying to run off as the other people screamed. Then one of the older Japs came up to her,

"Are you really witch?" He asked in Japanese, then slowly walked off with all the other people.

Botan sighed heavily, pissed. She bit her lip as the patrollers of the slope put a big light on her and spoke into the mic: "Warning, blue headed girl, please put your face down on the ground along with your hands."

Botan sighed again and glanced around to see people hiding behind trees. She got down and put her face in the snow, like they said.

Then a bunch of Jap patrollers ran over and handcuffed her, "Hurry, hurry. Bring her to the gates!" They shouted in Japanese as she made a confused expression.

When they reached the entrance the chief of the patrollers glanced at her and quickly said, "Lock her up for temporary."

After the Tantei and the other group stopped fighting at the bottom of the slope,

"Hey.." Kuwabara said panting. "Where's-" He stopped again. "Where's-"

"Botan?" Hiei finished, panting himself.

Kurama looked to the top of the slope to see nobody then looked at all the other people circled around the fight. "I don't know. Last time I saw her was when we were at the top of the slope."

"Aw jeez." Yusuke said breathing hard.

They walked back to the top of the slopes leaving the other group stranded on the ground. Finally reaching the gates they saw a lot of people standing around talking about witches.

"Excuse me sir, have you seen a teenaged looking girl standing around here.. and wasn't Japanese?" Kurama asked, knowing she had on a hood.

"Hai." He grunted. "She is locked up. People say she was witch." He said looking back at his newspaper.

Kurama looked back to the group, "They said they locked her up because people said she was a witch." He laughed. "Mind telling us where that is?"

The police officer pointed to a small little shed with a sign hanging over it called "Lock-up" in Japanese writing. "Oh.." Kurama said in a stupid tone.

"Hey Botan-chan." Kurama said, seeing her sitting in the corner of a dirty room behind bars. He laughed, "What happened?"

"They locked me up." She said in a low tone, not happy, and definitely not her regular look. She looked as if her bubbly soul was taken out of.

"What did you do he mean?" Yusuke asked, concerned from her unusual tone and appearance. "And.. what's wrong with you?"

Botan shook her head. "That dude took my hood off and they saw my blue hair.. and thought I was witch. I kept cool, tried. And then they all pissed me off with the witch crap."

She stood up from the shadowed corner and walked over to the bars so she could leave out, "But really I wasn't pissed. It was painful to see everyone looking at you so hard!" She started to frown up.

Kuwabara wasn't acting stupid now, in fact Hiei was also into the story. Usually Kurama would be the one really concerned, but not this time.

"Don't worry about it. Lets just go back to the slopes and finish this trip off huh?" He said patting Botan on the shoulder and then turning to the rest of the gang,

"It's kind of getting late." He said as they walked off. Then Hiei stood behind, waiting for Botan to catch up.

"I know what you are talking about." Hiei said making Botan look at him. "I'm always getting looked at strangely. Not just because my hair either, my height, and without my bandana.. my eye."

"But, you could always change your hair color. Not your height, or your eye on your forehead." He looked to the people watching her walk passed them. She put on her hood,

"Yeah and why are you talking to me all of a sudden about peer pressure?" Botan asked rudely. "Usually you don't ever want to talk."

"Yeah whatever, don't push me." Hiei said, stubborn. "Anyway, I thought about having that day out with you. And I will if we go to a ice-cream pallor."

Botan took her sight off the ground and back onto Hiei with a small smile, trying not to get back into her own moody way. "Hai! Ok." She nodded as they caught up with the rest.

¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤

Back at the hotel's lobby,

"You guys, I'm hungry." Kuwabara said making everyone sweat drop. "Kuwabara you're always the one hungry." Yusuke said in the background with a laugh afterwards.

Botan and Hiei was sitting at the counter of the lobby. "Are you ready?" ^-^ She smiled her cheerful smile and pointed her finger up at him. Now she was back into her bubbly mood. ::Yay::

'Oh god.' Hiei said in his head. 'As long as she doesn't go back to being dim.' He stopped wondering and shook his head.

"You're not?"

"No! I'm ready." Hiei hopped off the tall stool along with Botan.

They went to a nearby ice-cream pallor and had ice-cream for the rest of the night blah, blah. Then they went back to the hotel rooms to go to bed.

The next morning,

"Hey!" Kurama shouted as Yusuke and Kuwabara laughed. "Stop pillow fighting with those pillows!" Kurama shouted again. "God damnit!" Yusuke and Kuwabara gasped and laughed again.

Koenma laughed on the communication mirror. "Oh hai, I wanted to thank you and Yusuke for destroying the glassed cello.. or did I already do that? Oh well. Uh," He stopped.

"Hai Koenma-sama, anything for you!" She grinned as he smiled and went into his teenage form. "Awww." Botan said snickering afterwards.

"Urasai." Koenma said rolling his eyes with a blush. "Back to what I was getting ready to say.." He paused again as Botan quirked, "I--don't mean to spoil your fun and ruin your day but-"

He stopped as he saw her losing her grin. "Um.." He said nervously and looked down. "You have to come in today. I'm sorry." He said calmly.

"But Koenma-sama!" She shouted not smiling anymore.

"I'm sorry Botan!" He shouted back at her, not smiling either. "I know how you want to.. do whatever you're doing so much but look at me. I can't holly do anything without King Enma getting mad."

"But Koenma-sama I was on a trip at the m-"

"Botan!" He shouted and there was a long period of silence. He sighed, "No need to argue. Be here in a gipsy..." He said sadly and cut off the communication mirror.

Botan sighed and growled loudly. "I hate Koenma-sama! He thinks everyone has to do what he says! He's always ruining my days! I can't have anytime for myself! Botan this, Botan t-!"

"What's going on?" Kurama asked as everyone else stopped fighting with the pillows and looked over to Botan.

"Koenma-sama just told me that I had to go back to Rekai as soon as possible." She said sadly sobbing afterwards. "I didn't even get to really enjoy a peaceful ride down the slopes." She said as she got her stuff and summoned her oar.

"Hope you guys enjoy the rest of your trip." She said with tears in her eyes. "I'll see you guys whenever I get to come back to Ninghenkai." She hopped on her oar and sped off.

"Hey Botan wait!" Kurama shouted but too late. He sighed and then turned back to the group who was all pooped out. "Ready to go back home?" He asked them as they all nodded silently.

¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤°¤

Back in Ninghenkai at the Ramen shop that afternoon,

"What!?" Keiko shouted as Yusuke told her Botan had to go back on duty. "Why?" She said sighing with a whining voice.

"I don't know. Koenma-sama just needed her." He shrugged. "Maybe he was missing her." Yusuke smiled as Keiko glared.

"Well she could have came by to tell me she was leaving back to Rekai." She said sticking out her bottom lip. "When is she coming back?"

Everybody shrugged as Hiei walked out of the Ramen Shop without a word, like he usually do.

"Well at least I got to spend a day alone with her!" Keiko smiled thinking back to their shopping day. "Whelp, back to work." She walked over to the cash register to serve the customers.

Sitting in the four people booth, "Huh?" Kuwabara said. "I didn't get a day alone with her!" He shouted as Yusuke laughed.

"Calm down baka. All I got to do was fight Syqashki with her and have coffee until she fell asleep." Yusuke let out a small chuckle. "I consider that enough." He looked over to Kurama staring at his cocoa.

Kurama noticed Yusuke staring at him while he was thinking and spoke out, "Yeap, I had a great time alone with her. We had pizza. We even walked there talking. We got to uh, run from other women."^-^ He laughed.

Yusuke laughed, "Oh is that all? I know you guys had to have went on a date." He said taking a sip of his cocoa, trying not to choke up on his words.

"For the last time! It w-" Kurama stopped as everyone in the shop was staring at him. He lowered his tone, "It wasn't a date." He said looking into his cocoa again to see his reflection and then Botan's. He shook his head and the illusion disappeared.

"Ok.. ok. It wasn't a date. But you still admire her." Yusuke said, serious. "I admit, if I didn't know Keiko-" He stopped as Kurama and Kuwabara looked at him.

"I would be a lonely loser." He changed what he was getting ready to say. "Oh Keiko, my pretty, most beautifullest, precious, treasure-like, life living worth-ful princeeeess." He said in a British tone and walked over to her.

Kuwabara sighed, knowing he would always be alone. ::Until he meet Yukina. Which is not going to happen like in the actual cartoon.:: "I'm always going to be alone and ugly. Well, not ugly."

Kurama coughed, joking with him. "I'm just kidding Kuwabara. You will find someone soon. I promise you that." He smiled at Kuwabara.

"Really?"

"Hai."

"Can you tell me her name?" Kuwabara asked stupidly.

"No I mean, I don't know who, but you know, someone."

"Well where!?"

"I don't know Kuwabara."

"H-how am I going to meet her!? Will she like kittens?! Is she going to be really pretty!? Tell me Kurama!" He grabbed Kurama by his shirt and pulled him halfway over the table.

"Uh!" Kurama said trying to get Kuwabara to let loose. "Uh, she'sgoingtobereallypretty, haveaquahair, andshe'sgoingtolovekittens!!" Kurama just randomly shouted.

"Cool!" Kuwabara let loose of Kurama. "Now.. where will she be waiting for me at?" Kuwabara asked, trying to act cool.

A/n: Lol, how did Kurama know about Yukina? Actually he didn't he just guessed. And Kurama's already thinking about our favorite ferry girl Botan already. Awww, and Botan said "Awww" to Koenma. But he blew it when he overworked her. Poor Kuwabara didn't get his day alone with Botan. *Shakes head* -.- Well.. we'll see about all this in the next chapter. Review... ^-.^
