Thank you to those of you who reviewed and are sticking with me despite the iffy updating. And thank you to AlleluiaElizabeth for pointing out a few things that need correcting.
Prompt: Supernatural
All in Due Time: Break Through
Nearly two weeks since the start of the mission, and still Botan and Hiei had barely anything to go on. They were nearing one of the last portals in Demon World that they had not checked yet. Information had been scarce and tempers had been on high. So far, it was a wonder to Botan that Hiei hadn't snapped her neck yet. She sure had tried to crack his skull open with her oar.
They had never fought this much at Mukuro's castle, or been so angry at each other. And she certainly had never been so bold as to try and hit Hiei before. She wasn't quite sure what was wrong with them. Perhaps Hiei was angry because she wouldn't answer his question. And well, his attitude was making her angry!
Stopping suddenly and feeling a little woozy, Botan grabbed Hiei's shoulder so she wouldn't fall over, "There's something wrong with this place, Hiei. It... it doesn't feel right."
"Hn. What are you on about, woman? I don't feel anything."
"No, there's something very wrong. There's a lot of spiritual unrest, like something bad has been happening here, a lot of death."
Well, that would explain why he couldn't feel anything. Hiei may be a demon, but he had nothing to do with souls, ghosts, or anything spiritual. Except the part where he kills things.
"Good. Let's keep going, then. This is what we've been looking for."
