Chapter Two: The Hilarity Ensues Further


"Okay, so that didn't work out as well as I would have thought or wanted it to....I'll have to do better now. Now I wonder....damn, Yukina is Hiei's sister, well that rules her out. I can't try Kuwabara again, Yukina would kill me, geez that girl can have a temper as bad as her brother...

(A/N: Yet again, I remind you all, this is a parody fic. Would you think that Yukina would ever have even a tiny temper? Nope.) Stupid, stupid, stupid." Botan thought and then whacked herself in the head with her oar. "Owieeeeeeee!" She grumbled nearly incoherently to herself, but no one heard her, for she was sitting on a bench, in a deserted park, contemplating what she must do next; her next plan of action.


Now with little oars flying around in front of her eyes because of her self-inflicted injury, Botan tromped off to find her next victim in her 'Dating Experiment'...


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


"Why me? What did I ever do to deserve this? Now I'm sitting at a table with Botan nearly forcing me to sit in my seat, a freaky gleam in her eyes, which, as much as I hate to admit it, scares the hell out of me. Oh no, there's that freaky perky smile. Dammit, what in hell is wrong with her, it's freaking psycho. Ah, here we go....someone's coming through the door, who's that? Oh it's Hiei! Maybe I can just ask him to use his katana to get Botan away from me, or maybe a glare from him will send her running, yeah that's a good idea, now if only I can get him over here...wait, he is coming over here already, oh he looks a bit pissed...wonder why, maybe it has something to do with this 'I'm too overly perky for my own good ferry girl'." Yusuke thought, clearly disturbed by being in the presence of the supposed psychotic Botan.


Hiei came over to the two of us who were sitting, well, Botan was sort of leaned over, keeping her hands on my shoulders to keep me in my seat.


"Hn. What this time Botan." Hiei said lowly, a deadly edge to his already deadly edged voice.


The ferry girl behind me almost winced at Hiei's tone, but then composed herself quickly and said, "Well, Hiei, eh..why don't you sit down, and then you two have a good time!" she said perkily...too perkily, and grabbed Hiei and forced him to sit in a chair and was out of here by the time you could say 'katana'.


"What?" I said, confused. Hiei just sighed exasperated, and rested his head on his fists. Wait a minute, Hiei? Sighing? Was the world ending so soon? I'm too young to die! Wait a minute, I already did die, it's not so bad. Oh well.


I looked at the fire demon, trying to figure out why even both of us were here, so I recalled what took place before Botan dragged me here.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~Earlier that day~*~*~*~*~*~*~


I was just walking along the street, kicking some annoying little punk kid out of my way, wondering what to do with the rest of my day off, and if maybe I should just go to Keiko's.

When suddenly, a perky blue-haired, pink eyed girl popped up out of nowhere beside me.

I was thinking, "Oh come on! It's my day off! No assignments, please no assignments..."

But she just smiled up at me with this odd gleam in her eyes, so of course, me being the blunt one asks, "Botan, are you on something?"

I mean, geez! She didn't have to whack me with her oar for that! It was an honest question for Kami's sake! That hurt too, geez it's like she put lead inside of the wood! Ow, I still have a bump on my head...Then she says,

"No baka! I need your help with something."

"Not another mission!" I exclaimed, already seeing that my day off was gone before me now.

"Well, in a way I guess, you could say..." she replied. I really did not like that look in her eyes dammit.

"You see, I want to 'help' Hiei with his little...dilemma, shall we say," Botan started again, Christ, this girl was nuts!

"What do you mean, 'dilemma'? Hiei doesn't have a dilemma." I said, getting more confused by the minute.

"Well, with your help Yusuke, and if everything goes right, then our little fire demon won't have a dilemma anymore now will he?" Damn this girl was confusing as hell.

And for who knows how and why, I agreed, not knowing what I was in for....and that brings me here.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


Hiei's POV


"Now that stupid girl has pulled Yusuke into this, oh Kami, I wonder if he even knows the reason that he's here....more than likely not, hell, I don't even know why I'm here, to hell if I care about that baka oar-rider, why can't she just leave me alone, I have my Foxy Mama, already, my Kurama...*mental sigh* I want to be with him right now, not with this clueless kid sitting in front of me." I thought, nearly smiling at the thought of my Ku Ku....


(A/N: Ku Ku, another nickname of Kurama, god how do I come up with this stuff....with the help of my just as crazy as me friend!)



I looked up then, a bit bored, and saw that Yusuke was staring at me with wide eyes. "Well looks like someone figured something out." I thought and Yusuke opened his mouth to speak, then closed it, and then finally after, how many minutes has it been, oh yeah, three, he spoke in a stammering shocked voice.


"You mean, this i-is a d-d-date?" he finished in a hushed whisper.


"At least that's what Botan is trying to do, crazy oar-rider." I replied, my tone reflecting my dark mood about this whole charade.


"Hey! Then that means...that your g-gay....Whoa...didn't expect that one, well, yeah kinda did actually. Oh well, I'm not, so yeah, this really wouldn't work. Eh..." Wow, look who's Captain Obvious, and what did he mean he kind of expected it....


I narrowed my eyes in suspicion and said scathingly, "Did I every say that I had a say in this? That baka ferry girl is the one who's dragging me into this and you too is seems, and everyone else in a matter of time. Hn. And who said I'd ever even want to be with you that way." I ended in a satisfied smirk as I saw the undignified look on his face.


"Hey, now that's just mean..." Yusuke said, for lack of anything better to say.


I turned my head at the sound of the door opening and saw Keiko come through, she seemed to be looking for soemone, more than likely the baka ningen sitting across from me. She spotted the two of us and ran over saying,


"There you are Yusuke! Hi Hiei, yusuke where have you been, you said you had the day off! I've been looking all over for you, I want you to come shopping with me!"


The boy groan and whined, "But Keiko....-"


"No buts Yusuke, come on, you promised."


Yusuke got a look on his face that said, "When in hell did I promise THAT?!?!" yet he stood up and dejectedly followed Keiko out of the door to go to his torture sentence of shopping for a few hours.


"Hn." I said to myself and stepped out of the door as well, and just to my luck, it started to rain.

"Now I wonder where I'm going to go to get out of the rain....." I thought mischievously, smirking even more so, and started off to a certain red-haired kitsune's house...

Kurama's POV


It started raining very hard, I could hear the droplets splattering against my window repeatedly...

I sighed, resting my head on the side of my hand, my arm propped up on my desk, I was trying to concentrate on doing my homework. But the sudden storm made me worry about my Muffin, and how he was fairing. I looked at the window, tapping my pencil on my paper as I waited and hoped that Hiei would come, I mean, why wouldn't he? I smiled fondly as I thought about my little half-Koorime. I was so enraptured in my thoughts that I did not hear a sharp rapping on my window, or see a small figure sitting outside of it, getting more soaked by the second as it was out there.


"Oh! Oh I'm so sorry Muffin!" I apologized, unlocking and lifting the window.

"Why was the window locked?" I thought, "Maybe Kasaan did it, yes, she probably did."


Hiei looked annoyed and glared half-heartedly at me, he can't stay mad at me, I'm his Foxy Mama.


He stepped down and I closed the window against the continuously pouring rain, he took off his boots and his soppy cloak. I took the cloak from him and hung it in the bathroom while he changed into some clothes I had bought for him a while ago.


I came back out from the bathroom and looked at my fire demon, homework could wait until later...much later...
