Chapter 3: The Prince of Thieves
"Did you see her come in last night?"
"Yes, she looked quite odd, if I may say so."
"Calypso, do you think something happened after we left?"
"Something had to have happened for her to look like that. Something good
must have happened. Something very good."
"Why do you say that?"
"Did you not see her face? She looked quite happy, if not a little
confused."
"But all I saw was a frown on her face."
"Don't worry about it Arianna. You'll learn to read her better as time
passes. Shall I wake her up, or would you like the honors?"
"She's going to scream either way, so why don't we both?"
"I like the way you think. Maybe then we can find out what happened last
night."
Arianna and Calypso opened the door to the room only to find everything in
perfectly in order, the bed made, and no Botan in sight. This confused them
to no extent as Arianna was the one to wake up earliest usually, and she
was sure that Botan had been sleeping when she last checked.
While Arianna and Calypso continually searched around the grounds for her,
Botan was at the other side of the island, searching out an entirely
different person.
"Hello? Is anyone out here?" Botan shouted, "Yumi? Aunt Yumi? Are you
there?"
"Yes child, I am here, now quiet down some would you? I am trying to
meditate." Yumi quietly replied.
"Oh, sorry Aunt Yumi, but this important."
"What is it child?"
"Something happened last night, but I don't know what to make of it."
"What happened?"
"I was in the hot springs with Calypso and Arianna after a hard day of
work. Then they both went to go to bed, but I stayed behind wanting to
relax a little longer in the spring. Then this amazingly gorgeous man comes
along, we argued for a little while, and then he kissed me and left after
his friend called for him. I started thinking impure thoughts and
everything." Botan looked confused, "He was absolutely gorgeous, Aunt Yumi.
He was perfect."
"Well, that's no good child. You can't be thinking those thoughts." Yumi
frowned. "You're a high priestess. You're not allowed to. Now tell me more
about this man. What did he look like, what was his name?"
"He had the most luxurious hair I've ever seen. It was silver and had to be
made out of silk. It looked so soft and silky, it was amazing." Botan had a
faraway look in her eyes. "And he had the most piercing amber eyes. When he
looked at me, I just got caught in his deep amber pools. I would love to
just stare in his eyes all day long. Just stare. That's how beautiful they
are. He was tall and slim too. He was a little on the pale side, and a
kitsune. His ears and tail were both beautiful silver as well, and he was
muscular. You could just see his strength under that slim body of his. Very
toned. His name was Youko. I know I've heard that name somewhere before,
but I just can't place it." Botan looked towards Yumi and saw that she has
a worried expression on her face. "What do you know of him Aunt Yumi? Your
face seems so shocked."
"Child, Botan, dear, you've had a run-in with the legendary Prince of
Thieves, Youko Kurama. His beauty is said to be unmentionable, and he beds
quite a few women. No one fights with him and lives to tell the tale unless
he deliberately lets them, but there have been only a few such cases. I
don't know what you've gotten yourself into, but stay away from him. He is
trouble. If you say a friend called him, it must have been either the
Koorime Hiei, or the raven Kuronue." Yumi's frowned deepened. "They are his
accomplices. He is a legendary bandit, but the elders have purposefully not
allowed you to hear anything of him or the others because they were worried
you might do something drastic. However, I will have to bring this up with
them at the next council. There is no reason for them to be here. Not
unless he is after the Sacred Jewel, which I've no doubt that is the reason
for him to be here. Beware of him. He uses plants to his advantage, and the
shrine is home to many plants, both inside and outside its walls. Do not
allow his eyes to captivate you, or his kisses to blind you. He is merely
using you child to get what he wants. Do not stray from your post for it
will only bring trouble should you do so. Please, child, I am only saying
so for your own good. Child, you are connected to the gods, do not get
caught up with him. He will only hurt you. That is what he is known for.
Does this help child? Have I answered your questions?"
"Yes Aunt Yumi. Thank you. I knew that I had heard the name before, but
seeing as I was not supposed to, I never mentioned it before. I will be
careful Aunt Yumi, I promise. Don't worry too much; I always have Arianna
and Calypso there to help me. They will never leave my side. Of this I am
positive."
After ending her conversation with the Hermit Hsealer Yumi, Botan left
towards the shrine knowing she would have much training to do should the
Prince of Thieves decide to fight her. She could only pray, it would end
with her still living.
