Chapter 2: Misinterpretations
^^A.N. Here's chapter 2 hope y'all enjoy. if someone's reading I think...
-*-*-*
" Are you alright?" The three-eyed koorime asked as he carefully wakes her up from her slumber.
Her wounds were now covered with bandages, did he made it an effort to care for her? She didn't know.
"I'm fine..." she replied softly as she tried to adjust her eyes from the dimness of the room. She can't seem to adjust... why? She thought.
"Where... Are we Hiei?" she asked again, trying to hear closely where his voice was coming from.
"You're in Mukuro's fortress, my. Room." He tried to sound civil as possible.
"Where are you Hiei?" she asked again, she just can't seem to adjust her eyes.
The koorime's patience is now wearing thin, she's asking too many questions that he figured out that she can answer herself.
"I'm right here in front of you." He replied, slowly approaching the bedside and hold her hand. Hold her hand? Why did he?
For comfort? Protection?
"I can't see... you.." She voiced out, trying to sound calm as possible.
Instantly, he cupped her face and moved it to his direction.
"Bo..tan. Your.... Blind." He summed, as he looked straight on her purple orbs. It looked like glass. Stiff.
A tearless cry echoed throughout the whole fortress.
He tried to calm her down, it hurts him to see her like this. She reached out to him, and welcomed her warmth with his own. And for the first time, he had shown an emotion he couldn't possibly believe he had the right to do.
He tightens his arms around her waist and protectively diminishes any space between them.
Her arms encircled his neck as she sobbed uncontrollably.
He cried with her.
-*-*-
"Cheers!!!!" The usual orange-haired tantei yelled happily as he took a sip from his sake.
"It's so nice to have all of you here." The blind young woman gratefully said.
"Awww now c'mon Botan!!! You've been going mushy-mushy on us for the past few nights now!!!" Shizuru replied, seemed to be half drunk already as she signals the others for another toast.
"Ya' know Botan..(hiccup) being blind is kinda an advantage!!" the certain class-s youkai pointed out.
Botan gave him a weak smile and urged the Raizen descendant to continue is fact.
"First of all, you'll never see how ningenkai is getting worse than before. Second (hiccup) you'll never see this stupid orange-haired good-for-nothing- --" The jet-haired detective was cut-off as a certain bumbling orange head tugged him from behind and started cursing and teasing him.
'She's beginning to show some color now' Kurama noted telepathically to someone. 'Hn.' was his reply. The kitsune smiled and asked 'How's the investigation going?' 'Those reinzien freaks just got out from Toujen. Those fucking youkais must've been preparing for the sacrifice ceremony, and they're bound to return to Toujen.' He replied calmly. 'So, you've been having some bad luck?' the Kitsune asked urging him to ask for help. 'I don't need you. It would be better if you just try to protect her there. I don't know but I'm sensing that they'll come after her. Just be there in case she needs help. Don't expect too much from that punk and his dumb ass friend. And do please keep an eye on Yukina that good-for-nothing---' the young man was cut-off as a familiar voice entered their telepathic conversation.
'Don't worry Hiei, Kuwabara just loves your sister I'm sure he'll not do anything to hurt her.' the soft gentle voice of their blind friend entered.
The two conversing youkais couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Telepathic conversation such as this couldn't as much be interfered by someone from Reikai. It could be interfered, however either by a youkai higher than them or probably if they'll gladly share their conversation with her.
The kitsune looked over to his blue haired friend, she was smiling warmly to herself. She probably didn't know how she came to interfere but she was happy to know that her koorime friend somewhat held her in some important part of him. and she is sure that he'll keep his promise.
'Botan? How did you?' Kurama asked her continuing their conversation.
'Kurama. I've been blind for nearly a month now.' She replied, as she tried to keep her cheery voice.
'You know that even if I catch them or not you'll still be blind right?' the koorime opened up.
'Yes. That's what I'm trying to ask of you---' she was cut-off.
'I know. I'll try to find them, so they'll not hurt other ferry girls like yourself... I CAN keep a promise.' The koorime replied calmly.
'I know. That's why I trust you.' She said softly.
"Botan!!!" a voice yelled at her distracting her from her telepathic conversation.
"C'mon!!! drink up!!!!" Shizuru tugged her a glass of sake.
'Hn.' the koorime ended as he said his goodbye to the kitsune.
~~~__~~
"What would Otousan want with me now?" The teenage prince walked to down the hallway followed by his trust blue companion.
"I dunno Koenma-sama but he said its urgent!!" he fidgeted his answer.
"I already told him. I'm not going to discuss with him my marriage not now not ever until I find those eye maniac youkais DEAD." He emphasized his reply to his assistant.
The oni just remained silent and sighed. 'How I wish that Koenma would try to consider what he feel for Botan is not likely as a friend anymore.' He figures out.
The two huge castle doors open. He strutted to his father with a smirk adorning his face. "What is it O great Enma-daioh?" he asked sarcastically.
"About Botan Koenma." his father replied in a serious tone.
"What?" the prince asked back.
The great king opened an old scroll and handed it to him.
"I think this will help you understand what I'm about to say to you." The big man replied as he began his painful explanation.
