Sayonara, Bye-Bye

Chapter 17

Kurama's Point Of View

" Yukina? Are you ready yet?" Botan asked Yukina.

" Hold on Botan!" Marron yelled back for Yukina.

" What's going on?" Botan asked.

" Just a second!" Kuwabara said.

" Yeah Botan! Hold on!" Yusuke said.

" I swear, you're all being weird." Botan said, walking into the living room. Everybody was wrapped around the television, even Hiei. Yusuke and Marron were pressing buttons on the controllers madly.

" Come on! Just a few more hits Yusuke!" Marron encouraged.

" A video game!" Botan scolded.

" It's the last level. Yusuke and Marron have teamed up and are fighting the evil Flounder!" Yukina said in an adventurous tone.

" Baby, don't you mean Bowser?" Kuwabara corrected.

" Well, isn't Hairo trying to save Princess Beach?" I asked.

" You demons don't know anything, you mean you don't even have Mario World games?"

" Oh! His name is Mario?" Yukina asked. " Then what is the Princess's name?"

" Peach, not beach."

" What a pretty name! Kuwabara, if we ever have a child I want to name her Peach!" Yukina smiled. Hiei flinched at the mension of children. I smiled at him.

" Can we go now?" Botan asked irritatedly.

" Okay." Yukina said, getting up.

" Shitaki Mushrooms!" Marron yelled, throwing the controller.

" This stupid game!" Yusuke yelled, punching at the game console.

" Good, we can go now." Botan said.

" Where are you all going Botan?" Yusuke asked.

" Shopping for bridesmaid dresses and my own dress. Speaking of which, I need another bridesmaid." Yukina said, troubled. She walked out the front door, following Marron.

" Have fun, okay?" Botan waved, following the rest of the girls.

" What do we do now?" Kuwabara asked.

" All the females left." Yusuke said.

" So Yusuke! I heard you had the hots for Botan!" Kuwabara teased Yusuke.

" Oh shut up!" Yusuke said, punching Kuwabara.

" Don't get mad at me just because you like her!" Kuwabara said again, punching back.

" This is stupid." Hiei said, getting up to leave for the room.

Meanwhile With The Girls:

" Ah, Yukina! I found the cutest dress!" Marron said, rushing over to Yukina with a sikly white dress.

" No Marron. I don't want to be cute. I want to be me, after all. That's who Kuwabara fell in love with me."

" He fell in love with you because you were a damsel in distress."

" But you don't know Kuwabara like I do. He's different from any other guy, he's special to me. That's why I said yes so early in our relationship, I know he's the right one. Hiei knows it too, that's why Hiei is allowing me to do this."

" Hiei isn't allowing you to do this. Hiei knows this is what you want." Marron said.

" How do you know?" Yukina said.

" Mother's intuition." Marron said suprisingly.

" You're a mom Marron?" Botan said, quite confused.

" Are you pregnant?" Yukina asked.

" Oops. Forget it."

" Tell us!" Botan begged.

" Forget it!" Marron yelled, going off to search for new dresses.

" What color bridesmaid dresses should we get?" Botan asked.

" I don't know. Maybe a lavender color?" Yukina questioned. They continued to one of the halls with dresses and heard Marron scream loudly.

" Was that Marron?" Yukina asked.

" Probably. It seemed far away." Botan summoned her oar. " Hop on." Yukina quickly jumped on the oar behind Botan and quickly soared threw the hallways of the bridal dresses. There was Marron, surrounded by black flames, being over powered by huge demons.

" Come on out Hina!" one of the demons crackeled.

" Hina!" Yukina hopped off the oar. " What do you mean by that?"

" Ah, Yukina! Boss said he wanted her first." the demon said to another one.

" AHH!" Marron screamed, being constricted by the demon's large hand.

" Who is Hina?" Yukina asked worriedly. One of the demons grabbed Yukina and squeezed her tight, watching her scream and yell.

" Little pest!" the demon laughed over Yukina's screaming.

" You let go of them!" Botan said, smacking the one holding Marron in the face with her oar. He dropped Marron, who was gasping for air. The demon watched as Botan rushed to Marron's side.

" Bitch!" the demon yelled, smacking Botan powerfully into the next wall.

" Yukina!" Marron yelled, sending out repeated ice and fire energy balls. They all missed.

" I guess we'll just take this one." The demon carrying Yukina said, flying off. Marron looked up, seeing Botan, battered and bleeding on the floor. Marron felt her arm, warm blood was gushing from a wound the demon's nail caused. She quickly passed out.

Back At The House:

" Ah! Yukina! Marron! Botan!" Kuwabara yelled, standing up.

" You feel it too." I said, looking up at him.

" Their energy just shot downwards. Something must have happened." Yusuke said. Hiei came out, katana drawn and his Jagan revealed.

" Who's coming with me?" Hiei asked. We quickly rushed to the bridal dress salon and busted open the doors, only to find Marron and Botan in serious condition.

" Botan!" Yusuke cried, rushing to her side.

" Marron." Kurama said, running to her. " Marron, what happened?"

" Kur-Kurama?" she stuttered.

" Marron, what happened?" Hiei asked.

" Demons stole Yukina. I don't know why." she said, hissing in pain.

" Botan, she is getting cold and breathing heavily." Yusuke said, holding her close.

" Yu-Yu-Yusuke." Botan cried softly.

" What Botan?" Yusuke asked in surprise.

" If I die, I have to let you know that I-I am in love with you." Botan confessed, fainting after her words.

" Botan!" Yusuke yelled in anger. I looked to Kuwabara who's eyes were full of tears.

" Yukina!" Kuwabara yelled.

" Those bastard demons will pay for this." Hiei said, keeping his cool.

" I guess this is our fault." Kurama said.

" How this this our fault Kurama!?" Kuwabara yelled.

" We stopped paying attention to why we were here. Playing video games, planning for weddings, that wasn't why we came here. Koenma told us to come here because there was a problem. If we had been playing more attention, this wouldn't have happened."

" Kurama has a point." Hiei confessed.

" How do we save them?" Yusuke said.

" We need Yukina." Kurama said.

" Why?" Kuwabara said.

" Her healing powers. Marron is a self healer so she'll be fine but Yukina is the only one that can heal Botan with her injuries." Hiei answered.

" I'm going with you." Marron said, standing up.

A/N: It's getting closer and closer to the meaning of the story; but sure as hell not the end! It's just starting to get good!
