"I'm scared. Kuwabara-kun, what did you mean 'it's in there waiting for us'?" Yukina asked. Kuwabara looked at her and said in a soothing voice, "Don't worry Yukina-chan. I'll protect you." Hiei could just literally throw up. "What exactly is in that ugly nignen that made Yukina fall in love with?" he thought
"Let's rest for a while, yeah?" Botan asked them. "I'm so tired. We've been walking around in this big mansion for like two whole hours and still nothing."
"Yeah," Keiko agreed. Recca sat down. "Alright with me. What do you think Yusuke?"
"Yeah. I'm pretty wiped too." Hiei looked at them and said, "No. Let's continue. We have to go. It's only a short distance now. No need to rest."
"Hiei, aren't you tired yourself?" Kurama asked. "I've got to admit. I am pretty tired."
"No. I'm not. Just go on. Stand up lazy bums!" Hiei said urgently. Botan stood up. "Tsh. Fine! No mercy," she said as she stomped away. The others stood up as well. They were still tired but Hiei said go on. They didn't want him to be mad because they were scared of him. Botan was the only one who had the guts to do that to Hiei when he is in a bad mood. He could easily kill people with his Kokoryuha. While Botan was still grumbling to herself, the floor started to shake.
"What the?!" Yusuke said.
"AAHH!!!" Keiko fell on the floor. Yukina also fell as well as Shizuru. Recca went up to help the girls.
"AAAAAAAAAHHH!! HELP!!!" Yusuke and the others looked around and saw Botan falling. The ground under her collapsed!
"BOTAN!!" Kurama yelled. He went to grab Botan's hand. "Kurama!! Help!"
"Botan, don't let go of my hand," Kurama said as he gritted his teeth. The others were having a problem themselves. There was another after shock, which made all of them fall on the floor, even Hiei. Botan's hand started sliding away. "Kuuuuuramaaaa….." Botan cried. Kurama gave all his strength to lift Botan up. There was some progress until the final hit came. It was enough to let Kurama let go of Botan and let her fall into the dark pit.
"AAAAHHHH!!"
"BOOOOTAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kurama yelled at the top of his lungs. The shaking stopped. Everyone was shocked. They stood up, one by one. "Kurama, what happened?" Keiko asked. Kurama was crying (Hmm… unusual).
"Kurama… You did your best," Yusuke tried to calm him down. Kurama was so mad, he pushed Yusuke away and started cussing. He then, looked at Hiei. "You! This is all your fault!!" he blamed Hiei. Hiei was dumbstruck.
"If you had let her go to have a little rest, this wouldn't have happened," Kurama said, shaking with rage. Hiei just looked at him and a thought struck him.
"Me?… yes… It is my fault. If it wasn't for me… Botan would still be… No… It's my fault… No…" he thought to himself.
Hiei had to fight the tears back.
"My fault… my fault…" He was off in a dream land where only him and his conscience existed
Then there was another voice in his head:
"Who cares if you did do it?! Who cares if it was your fault? Just ignore them. You don't care about anyone…" said the voice.
Hiei snapped back to reality. "Hn," he said as he walked away. Kurama had an urge to kill him here and there. "Why you!"
"Kurama! There's no use in trying to fight him. It's not going to do any good," Yukina reasoned with him. Kurama dropped his guard. "Hm. I guess you're right. Let's just go. Maybe we'll find Botan on the way." They all agreed (except Hiei).
"Why? Why am I so weak? If only I have some extra powers left, I could still be able to summon my oar. I'm so weak. It seems that… holding on to Kurama… has made me weak… No! What am I saying? He's the one who tried to rescue me with all he's got. Thank you.... Kurama-kun."
Then suddenly, all went white.

"Botan, don't let go of my hand," Kurama said as he gritted his teeth. The others were having a problem themselves. There was another after shock, which made all of them fall on the floor, even Hiei.
