Hiei was angered by being interrupted but soon regained his composure when we saw Botan's smile, it seem to tell him that it was alright. "So where do you guys want to go on our vacation?" Botan asked them
"How about Hawaii." Yusuke said looking at Kayko. "You can wear the yellow bikini..." Yusuke nudged her only to get a slap across the face.
Kuwabara laughed and began thinking of Yukina. Unfortunately for him Hiei was reading his mind and hit Kuwabara with the hilt of his sword causing him to back out.
"Hey, what was that for?" Yukina asked her brother as she knelt down to help Kuwabara.
"Hn." Hiei then turned to Kurama who was holding Star in his arms.
"Hawaii?" Star asked, "What is Hawaii?"
"Is the name of eight islands in the United States, well Hawaii is the name of the big island. The island we are going to is Oahu, or the gathering place." Kurama answered, looking down at her.
"How do you know so much?" Star began to flirt with her mate,
"I don't know that much..." Kurama said trying to be modest
"Maybe I could teach you a few things." Star said causing Kurama to blush.
"Okay, enough of that, Star... So are we going to Haw...Oahu or not?" Yusuke asked getting annoyed.
"Yes." Everyone answered. "But first I think we need a day of rest and time to pack." Botan said.

Botan walked herself home. When she walking into her door she saw that her house was trashed. "I have not been here in years." She said and started to clean up. Two hours later she had fallen asleep on the couch. Hiei came through the window and placed a blanket over her.
"Hiei?" Botan said in her sleep.
'She is talking in her sleep again?" Hiei thought. "What?" he decided to play along
"Thanks for everything." She said softly as she turned in her sleep
He casually walked to her side and kissed her cheek, "Hn, no you are the one I should be thanking." He said and sat in a chair to watch her sleep.

Yusuke and Kayko were relaxedly (not a word but I sounds nice) walking down the street on their way to Kurama's house and then off to the airport. Kayko pulled Yusuke to a stop, "Yusuke look..." she said and pointed at an object in the store.
"What is it?" He asked not wanting to go shopping at the moment.
"Well, you know how Botan has been down for the past few days? Even with Hiei around, she seems distracted." Kayko said
"Yeah I have noticed that," he said in soft caring voice (the voice he gets when he is being mushy)
"Well that charm bracelet in the window might cheer her up." Kayko said. They went in a bought it, and then wrapped it in pink and blue paper. "Do you think she will like it?" Kayko asked Yusuke. (Description with come later)
"I think it's perfect." He sighed, "Now can we get to Kurama's house now, I wanna see some sun and gir..." Kayko looked at him with evil eyes.
"Some what?" she asked him
"Some..." think Yusuke think... "Great big waves, for uh surfing." He said with his hand behind his head.
"Oh, me too," Kayko said and dragged Yusuke to Kurama's house.

"Great is everyone here?" Kurama asked as Yusuke and Kayko showed up.
"No, what about the shrimp and Botan?" Kuwabara said
"Kazuma, please don't call my brother a shrimp," She sighed, "Why can't you two get along?" she asked rhetorically, "I will get you two to friends, if it's that last thing I do," she silently vowed.
"Sorry, Yukina, my sweet." He said
"Those two better show up, they aren't about to ruin my vacation." Yusuke said.
"Calm down detective." Hiei said from the darkness, "I was wondering how long it would take you to figure out I was here, but I guess you were all to slow...Even you Kurama,"
"Shut it Hiei!" Star yelled in Kurama's defense. "Wait, where is Botan?" Star asked just as the doorbell rang. "There she is."
Botan walked through the door with a smile, but it was a fake one, only Hiei and Kurama saw through it. "Botan..." Kurama paused, "where is your luggage?"
"Oh, big brother, I don't think I want to go on vacation." She said
"What?!' Everyone exclaimed
"Botan?" Kayko asked softly but Botan shook her head telling her that she had made up her mind. Hiei was surprised as well, he found himself thinking he should not have left her. He did not want her to know that he was watching her sleep. He was wondering what had happened to her. They really did not get a chance to talk to her since they all stopped Suzaku.
"Well, have fun guys." She turned to leave but Kayko told her to wait. "What is it Kayko?" Botan asked sadly.
"Yusuke and I bought you something." She said and pulled out the box. Botan gasped.
"For me?" She asked and opened it. She found herself looking at a silver charm bracelet. Each of the charms represented her friends. A Peony for herself, Ice blue tear shaped gem for Yukina, a Yellow heart for Kayko, a black star for Star, a Purple triangle for Shizuru, an orange carrot for Kuwabara, Blood red rose for Kurama, A blue orb for Yusuke, and...wait, Hiei was missing. "Wow, these shapes remind me of you guys." Botan said
"Botan please come with us on this trip, or we will worry about you the whole time." Kayko pleaded.
"Oh, okay." Botan said hiding her sadness with her bubbly disposition. "I just have to pack really quick." She said and went out the door.
"Botan." Hiei whisper in her ear as he passed her.
"Hiei?" she asked, "where are you?" she asked him
"Right here," he said and stood in front of her...
