Hey everyone I update every Sunday, I think I said that before.
**************************
I'm sorry if my spelling and some of my grammar is confusing to you, I pretty much suck at it and I confuse myself, and this is my first fic so I'm trying my best.
The plot isn't that bad though but the way I write the story is kind of confusing.
Sorry everyone.
I read over my fic and I seen my own mistakes and how I keep changing the way I write the fic.
The lovey dovey stuff between Botan and Kurama will come soon, but before that happen there will be.. Well you will see. Thanks for reading this important message.
BTW I think I will write all the chapter's this way for now on, the exact way I'm writing it in this chapter it seems easier to read. I don't know.
Review and tell me.

It was a regular chilly Wednesday Night. The air was cool, and the sky dark, and only lit by the stars. The stars were shining more brightly then other nights. The shiny white aura around each star that glint in the dark. Each star looking as beautiful as the next and seem to make every eye that lie upon them to gaze deeply at them as if hypnotized. The chilling air drifted through the night and blew a slight breeze past beautiful delicate blue hair.
Botan had been watching Kila show her what to do all afternoon. She just wanted to rest before starting again. She sat on her oar merely a few feet from the ground. She looked up and smiled. She felt empty or was it that she was missing something, or someone.
The air was filled with a toxicating sweet smell of flowers and it all seemed so peaceful and quiet. The breeze would blow hard at times and then calming down to a soft halt, and then once it got it's chance it would sneak up unexpectedly and make Botan shiver.
Her hair flawlessly swayed in the air and went in front of her eyes at times, but not distracting her from what full focus she had in her view of the sky.
She sat there gazing at the stars. All life seemed frozen to her, not a minute passing and everyone gone into nonexistence, as she looked on in confusion on how she had ever ended up being chosen to be a ferry girl.
She had no choice in this, but only to decide if she would stay a ferry girl or go back to living her regular boring life, where nothing ever exciting happened. It just seemed so unfair when she thought about it.
Having something important to you that you really didn't take notice of before, until that one day when something bad happens and takes it all away is when you treasure it the most and want it back. This is what Botan thought about and felt.
There would be living for all eternity, but what's great about living forever if she couldn't be with family and with friends and learning new things everyday.
Knowing that her family and loved one's will pass away and she would still live seems sad. What joy does it bring? None only grief and sorrow for her.
Sharing emotions and precious time with the people she loves is the right decision right? She didn't mind being a ferry girl but what she did today seemed to remind her of everyone she knew and loved.
A silent tear slid down her soft cheek. She was still smiling, but just was remembering. She was remembering all the precious moments she had in life. Today was all so upsetting.

Botan tried to keep up with Kila on her oar. It was around 5:00 in the afternoon. She had been watching all her friends and now its time to get down to work and learn things from Kila.
Kila seemed sweet and looked young. She always kept a small smile on even though it looked forced, so Botan thought about that for a mere second on why she might be sad. Her thoughts were interrupted when Kila had stopped and Botan was still going and finally Kila got through to her by shouting Botan's name.
"Oh sorry, just thinking about something" Botan replied hopping it be a good excuse. Kila did not look angry though and softened up a bit. A wide grin placed its self on her small face.
"Botan its time you learn to be a ferry girl." She looked at Botan still smiling and told her to come down a bit and go through the house she pointed to with her.
Botan nodded and followed Kila into the house. They were able to go through the walls and were in a small light pink room with pictures of teddy bears and baby blocks. It looked like a baby's room.
"Now what." Botan said filled with so much excitement. She had no idea what she was going to have to do.
"Ok now you see that small child's spirit there." Kila looked like she was once again forcing a smile and pointed to a floating baby girl.
"Yes of course I see, but how is she flying as well." Said a confused Botan.
Kila floated over to the spirit and the baby looked like she was sleeping. She then placed her index finger on the infant's forehead.
"Botan this baby is, how can I say this..., no longer able to cry or laugh or even be hugged or played with anymore."
Botan stared and frowned. "You mean she is dead isn't she."
"Yes Botan your duty is to guide spirits back to the spirit world where it would be judged to either go to Heaven or Hell."
She then placed all her fingers gently on the baby. "I'm doing this a different way then you would, but it's the same thing."
She turned to look at Botan, but Botan looked away to hide her tears that she had shed for seeing a baby dead in her presence.
"Now that I have got her spirit to cooperate with me it will follow me to spirit world where they will do their duty." Kila said.
"I will be going now Botan, bring this baby to spirit world then you should know instantly what to do with her after getting there." "Just place your thoughts into the spirit to communicate with it to make it cooperate so it will follow you."
"Older spirits like perhaps a 50 year old women for example will be able to move and talk to you that's when you let them know they are dead and make sure they follow you, that's a different way as well."
"You will learn more, but for now I have to report your progress and I will be back soon." Kila looked at Botan and frowned and took off.
Botan sat there on her oar above the ground a few inches with a spirit in her arms. Botan could not control her tears no more, and it came down fast like a stream of water from her eyes and slid down to her chin and fell off onto her pink kimono she had been wearing.
For a short period Botan stayed there in the room. She saw the mother of the infant walk into the small bright pink room, to bring her baby a bottle. The mother lifted the baby and almost fainted. The mother fell limp and began to cry and scream. Se found her baby's body in the cradle without a heartbeat or pulse.
Botan watched the scene and cried her eyes out. She then left with the spirit to bring to spirit world.
Botan had to do this three more times. Each family she visited crying and mourning over their loved one's death. She could not tear her eyes from the scene but tried her hardest to. It was so sad.
***~~End of Flashback~~***
Just one more day Botan thought to her self.
One more day.
She wiped her face with her sleeve and went off into the sky on her oar.

(Kurama's POV for now)
Hiei came with me and we sat in front of Botan's house. I don't know why but standing there felt weird. I was going to toilet paper it with Hiei. It was just a crazy Idea I got.
I just can't stand her. Well that isn't all true she is nice and a good friend when she is with Keiko and Yukina.
After Hiei's fight I told him I would bye ice cream but I got an idea instead. I gave him a mysterious kind of look I get from time to time when I have a plan or something. He just grinned back at me and we walked to the nearest store for toilet paper.
I had a roll in my hand and Hiei had one in his. It was dark out so one would be able to see us or blame it on us as well.
It was a perfect joke.
Harmless, yet funny nothing can go wrong.
Standing here though. Right in front of her house. I could not take my eyes off from her closed living room window.
Around this time she would be in the living room watching TV. I would know, because mother would ask me to go to the 24-hour store to purchase something she needed. I would have to pass HER house to get there. I peek out of the corner of my eye to see if I could get a glance at what she would be doing at the time of my passing by. It always bothered me if I didn't check. There she would be, blue hair near the window and a big screen TV that can also be seen from outside. The window was a pretty big and nicely painted window.
Right now she wasn't watching television. There were no lights on at all in the entire house. She didn't even show up at school.
It just bug's the crap out of me.
The next thing I knew I was angry and walked up to her door and Hiei tried to drag me back, but nothing was going to stop me from seeing why she missed her second day of school.
I don't even know why I went to her door and want to ask her that.
I pounded at her door quite fierce. No answer I gave up and just chucked the toilet paper over my shoulder. I didn't feel like doing this to her house.
Hiei went home disappointed because he wanted to have fun. I laughed when he actually used the word fun. His way of fun was a trouble's path. He is still my best friend no matter what.
I sat in her back yard and stared at her window.
{Maybe she went to vacation. No we had a whole summer vacation. It would not surprise me if she had some family and she decided to visit.)
I could not stop thinking.
Maybe I don't actually hate her.
I went home and fell on my bed softly and sighed. " Why?" I questioned myself out loud but only loud enough so I could hear so no one else could
"Do I like her?"

This is a humor fic, but..
I didn't have humor in this chapter because I wanted it sad and to show that Kurama was starting to get feeling's for Botan.
Okay there will be humor in the following chapters.
I'm going to try harder and maybe I will get better with some suggestions from people.
I will allow flames so I can see what I am doing wrong, but if its about grammar I really can't fix that.
Review and tell me if this is how I should write my fic in, the way I did in this chapter.
*Oh and I don't really know how Botan in the anime episodes guides spirits. Just a little of my imagination.*
