========
Botan stared at the fox tailed beauty in front of her. Wasn't this the great thief Youko though? Shouldn't be scared? Shouldn't she just stop staring?
Youko smirked at the deity. Yes, another victim to his looks and charms. Youko leaned closer to Botan, who only blushed in response.
"Ready to go?" Youko asked.
It seemed that those three words snapped Botan out of her trance. Standing up, she brushed the dust of her kimono and huffed at Youko.
"No! Your the thief Youko, there is no way Koenma asked you to rescue me! Your just here to take me hostage so you can get back at Koenma!" Botan accused.
"No, that's a good idea, but no. (A/N: plus I already wrote a fic about this ^_^;;; see sn kokorodrgon)" Youko said. He leaned himself against the wall. "Look, we can do this the hard way, or the easy way."
"NO niether way! Just get away from me!" Botan yelled.
"My god your stubborn." Youko said camly. Just what did he get himself into?
"Look there they are!!!"
"Guess I forgot to kill one." Youko said. He stared down at the orge in front of him. Youko jumped from his postion and grabbed the orge by his neck. Youko sneered before crushing the neck. Blood burst everywhere.
Botan was horrified. She couldn't even move. "H-how can you kill so..easily?" She asked.
Youko just shrugged and walked over to Botan. "Like I said, we can do this the hard way, or the easy way."
The deity cringed at Youko's stare. "I-I want proof that you have to be rescue me."
"Hard way it is." Youko said. Completely ignoring what Botan had just told him. Grabbing the screaming Botan, Youko hoisted her over his shoulder and sighed. "By the way, does your oar still work?"
"Why should I tell you?!?! Your a dirty, rotten, evil,"
"And that's a no. Well then, it's going to get bumpy."
Youko smirked, with a blast of his plants he made yet another whole on the wall.
"Hey." Youko called to Botan.
"What." Botan demanded.
"You better hold on tight."
"Hm what do you mean?"
Youko sneered at Botan and jumped through the hole...which was ten stories up.
Botan started to scream like mad as Youko fell through the air. With a very loud thump and dust Youko landed. Botan of course, still was screaming.
"Will you shut up woman?!?!" Youko yelled. Botan was silenced. The thief looked to hsi side and saw a group of guards heading over where they were. "Wonderful..." Youko said sarcastically.
Nudging Botan, Youko decided to try again. "Now, tell me now woman. Can you or can you not summon your oar?"
Botan paused before answering, "I can't. They shot it in half."
"Rest is on foot then." Youko swirved and summoned his plants to his aid. He started to stroke a flower delicately. "Kill them all." He whispered to his beloved plants. The plants started to make their way to create a blood shed.
Youko felt the woman draped on his shoulder stiffened. "What's wrong?" He asked in a smooth dark tone. "Just don't look back if you hate it so."
"You..you animal!" Botan yelled. She started to wham her hands against Youko's back.
"That's what I am." Youko said. With that, he sprinted off.
youko's cave
Kuronue sat on the rock and huffed. It was three hours. Three. Youko still hasn't returned with the deity. Without Youko none of the men didn't really know what to do. Yes, they were independent. But they couldn't go off stealing something without Youko to guide them. Kuronue knew what to do of course, alomost as good as Youko. But for some odd reason, the men chose to listen to Youko more than Kuronue. Isn't that ironic?
Than something moved. And then another. Kuronue quickly turned into fight stance as he waited for the enemy to spring forth.
"Come on out now...." Kuronue mumbled.
The bushes moved and then....
"Kuronue!!! It's me!!!!" Youko yelled.
Kuronue stopped his sickle from making contact with Youko. Instead he took the end of the handle and whcked Youko with it. "What the hell are you trying to do!? Scare me?!!?"
YOuko rubbed his head. "I was, than I thought, oh gee, Kuronue's been so NICE lately, i'll just leave him be."
"Yeah right." Kuronue said. He heard another rustle and was about to dive for it until Youko restrained him.
Botan came out of the bushes, both timidly and tired. She just couldn't stand it, it must've been at least more than two hours since they ran from the castle. Youko got lazy and when they were a safe distance from the castle he made her walk.
"Do you really want to destroy the thing that will clear my records?" Youko asked as he crossed his arms.
Kuronue mimicked Youko's moves and crossed his arms. "Yes, yes I do."
Kuronue and Youko started to have a staring contest. Botan just looked at them both, sighing she knew something had to be done and went to Youko. Taking her hands she made a loud..
...CLAP!
Youko blinked in surprised as Kuronue laughed and patted Botan on the head.
"Now, I'm starting to like this girl." Kuronue laughed.
"Oh shut up you two, I'm going to back to Rekai now, only because it seems you two will have little use to me." Botan started to walk away until Youko reached out and grabbed her arm.
Youko tisked at Botan and waved his index finger at her. "With what? A broken oar? Now now love-"
"Love?! What the hell-" Kuronue clasped his hand over Botan's mouth, motioning Youko to continue.
"Your going to be my ticket to getting those rekai people off my back, if I let you die out there in Makai, I would kinda enjoy it, but it would be bad for me."
Botan bit down on Kuronue's hand and huffed. Kuronue, surprised by this action, let go and screamed.
"She bit me!!" Kuronue yelled at Youko.
"I can see that....so, anyways...woman, were leaving tomorow, at dusk. Get some sleep now!!" Youko waved. He turned and headed toward the cave.
"Wait! Where do I sleep?!" Botan yelled.
"I'll show you.." Kuronue mumbled. "Stupid fox, making me do all the work..."
Botan followed Kuronue into the cave. Little did she know, her unfotunately long journey, was about to begin..
aiko: how was it? good? bad? review!!! ^___^
