Surprise
Notes: Kathy was just an ordinary kid, until she met Botan.... Ships include BotanXOC and HieiXKurama Yaoi and yuri warning.
Ch. 1
Kathy had just moved into the neighborhood. She really didn't know anybody. After her father, named Nemean after the famous lion in the Herculean legend, had finished setting up his quaint little New Age shop, Nyassa finally was able to go to school. She clasped her rune for luck. It was Dagaz, the rune of destiny. The rune had been etched on a deep blue glass teardrop. It had belonged to her father and he had given it to her.
She boarded the bus, sitting next to a girl with pale, seafoam colored hair. She sighed, sitting back in her chair.
Botan had not been expecting to be joined that day. And the pendant the girl wore surprised her even more. That was Nemean's pendant! How did she get it? "Excuse me."
"Hmm?" The girl asked, not looking at her.
"Where did you get that pendant. It's really pretty."
"My dad gave it to me. There's a lion's paw print engraved on the back side of it. He was named after the Nemean lion in the Herculean legend." Kathy said sleepily. The cinnamon hot dark chocolate warmed her stomach, and her thoughts were more somnulent than startled. Her mother Norana never let her leave home hungry or cold.
Nemean?! She's NEMEAN"S daughter? Botan sweatdropped. Does she even know what her father IS? What SHE is?! A pause then. Yusuke?
Hnnhmmm*snork* Yusuke was almost asleep again.
WAKE UP!!
Yahhh! I"m awake already! What is it? Yusuke demanded.
I've found a girl, I think she's a demon, but I don't think that SHE knows it. Botan said, a bit flustered. Kathy was really pretty. Can you see us from here? She's sitting right next to me.
Yusuke squinted a bit in Kathy's direction. Yeah, I see. She's a demon alright! She's got fox ears! I guess she and Kurama would get along pretty well.
Fox ears? Botan wondered, chewing her lip thoughtfully. Just who HAD Nemean paired off with? Oh yeah, Norana, the fox princess. That girl was the princess of the Primal Tribe, a famous tribe of Youkos. They were famous for being the miners of gold and gems the size of a person's fist. Norana hadn't wished to lose her good looks to a mine. Okay that computes. I think I know who her folks are. The Youko Princess Norana and Nemean, the lion heart. Botan mused in Telepathy. Koenma thought that the coupling was rather odd though, but they're good demons alright. I guess they wanted to have their kids on earth, she doesn't seem to know what she is.
So introduce yourself. Yusuke said boredly.
"Um...I'm Botan, what's your name?" Botan asked.
"I'm Kathy, pleased to meet you." Kathy sighed. She picked up the padded canteen of cocoa and took a long drink of the frothy mixture. "My mom never lets me leave home hungry or cold." Kathy grinned. "I drink chocolate like some folks drink coffee."
Botan rolled her eyes. Nemean liked chocolate too. Some things never changed. "So, I never saw you around before. Where are you from?"
"America. I lived in Maryland. It shows because my father knows the best recipes for fish!"
"Cool, you can show me some. I work with a couple of boys, bottomless pits, you know how boys are."
"I sure do." Kathy sighed. "Back home they'd never leave me alone. I even had to beat one up because he kept hitting on me."
Tough kid. "That's cool. The boys around here can be a jerks sometimes. Yusuke is always getting into fights."
"Us girls gotta stick together." Kathy grinned. "Here, have a sip of cocoa. My mother mulled the milk with cinnamomn, allspice, and mint."
Botan took a sip. And so their friendship was forever cemented by a sip of cocoa.
Author's notes: I don't know when I'll get back to this one. Oh well. Enjoy. I eventually want to get a lemon between Kurama and Hiei. Maybe some reviews would encourage me a bit...*hint hint* I also generally don't bother with author's notes. I let my fanfics speak for themselves.
