The girl was running, running away, "Coward, Jenna reproached herself,
"wimp" She knew she should go back, knew she couldn't survive life away
from her town, But she couldn't face the teasing, she got for her bright
blue hair, and lavender eyes.
Her odd looks and the way she hated to do housework but would willingly clean out the stable, and said the strangest things, led the village to fearing and mocking her. They called her demon's child, said that god had started to make her and then realized she wasn't worth it, so had given her to the devil.
Jenna always acted like it didn't bother her but it did. Even though she doubted that god and the devil were like the folk at church said. Every once in awhile she would sense a true demons presence, and was well aware that death was far from what they said it was like.
So she was running away. Jenna had run for miles already and was quite tired. She sat down to rest and when she woke up. She was in a cave staring up at a man with long black hair amber eyes and a moon charm around his neck.
Yusuke looked down at his unconscious friend. He was confused by the demon's words, but being Yusuke didn't think much about it, Hiei however, got busy thinking about the way Botan had fainted at his words. Obviously they had known each other, During the ferry girl's human life. Most likely she'd been called Jenna, but why would that have caused her to faint.
He didn't have much time to mull over it, as Kurama, and Kuwabara got back with the treasure that had been stolen. "Hey what's wrong with Botan" Kuwabara asked. The feeling he was getting from her was close to that of doctor Ichigakis team, but not quite the same.
Kurama had already seen her on the floor and had felt something was wrong. He answered Kuwabara's question. "It seems she overexerted her self." The kitsune wasn't speaking the whole truth, and they all knew it, but that was the only physical cause he could find.
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it" Yusuke said as he leaned down to pick up his ferry girl friend. The group left the cave, Only Hiei heard the word that Botan Uttered in her sleep, ". demon?"
Authors note. 1) The chapter starts with Botan's dream or rather a flashback to her life as Jenna. 2) Jenna lived in Puritan Europe I'd say about 9th century, which is a subject I know nothing about so bear with me.
3) There is a reason I'm having Hiei be the one to catch the last word out of her mouth, and will be for most of the story, and the reason has something to do with his sister.
