Different Ways of Torture
(My Notes)
"Speaking"
'Thinking'
Telepathy
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho.......but I really wish I could, then there'd be lots of Hiei and Botan fluff!!! MWHAHAHAHAH! Ahem..enough with that. Oh yeah Hiei is taller in this story and Koenma is always in his Teenage form ok?
Chapter: Amnesia sucks.
"Well?..Who am I?" Botan asked again as everyone stared at her blankly. "Oh, so I take it you guys don't know who I am either..." Botan said sadly as she looked down. "We know who you are y-you're Botan." Koenma managed to say. "Oh that's a nice name." Botan replied as seh smiled. "Yeah it is but, are you sure you don't remember anything, not even us?" Keiko asked. "No, I can't remember anything at all." Botan told her.
"We should take Botan to the hospital." Kurama said to Hiei as Botan got up. "We are taking you to the doctor." Hiei told her. "Oh will the doctor help me remember who I am and everything?" Botan asked hopefully. "He should be able to." Hiei reassured her. 'Or i'll slit his neck....' Hiei thought as he followed the others. "Great." Botan said as she followed everyone. When they reached the hospital they walked up to the counter.
"Hello, what do you kids need?" A woman asked polietly as she smiled at them. "Well you see our friend, she can't remember anything at all." Kuwabara replied as the womans smile turned into a frown. "Oh my that's bad. Hmmm Dr. Katsu is free now." She said as they all hurried off to find him. Soon after they came back. "Ehe...would you mind telling us where he is?" Yusuke asked as he scratched the back of his head.
"Well I was going to tell you kids but you ran off so fast. Room 218 on the second floor." She answered. "Thank you." Yukina said as they all hurried off again. They walked into the elevator and Kurama pressed the button. 'I hope she's ok.' Hiei thought as he watched her from the corner of his eye. They walked inside the room to find a doctor waiting for them. "Hello, I am doctor Katsu." The doctor said as they walked towards him.
"Our friend has lost her memory." Koenma told him. "Miss do you know who you are?" He asked as he walked towards Botan. "No." She said sadly. "I see, what about them?" Dr. Katsu continued to ask. "No." She replied again. "Hmm...what's her name?" He questioned. "Botan." Yukina said. "And last name?" He continued. "Er..Jaganshi." Yusuke said quickly as Hiei glared at him and everyone else looked his way.
"Yusuke how could you be so cruel one of your closest friends has just lost her memory and you're making fun of her?" Keiko whispered angrilly. "Well do you know her last name? I think not, I just saved your butts and plus I'm guessing Hiei's the one she's gonna marry." Yusuke whispered back. "Alright, would you guys mind waiting in the room to the left of this one?" Dr. Katsu asked as they nodded and walked out.
"I hope she's going to be alright.." Keiko said. "She wiill." Hiei shot back. "But, what if she never gets her memory back!" Keiko said as she stood up and Hiei shot a death glare unnoticed by her. "What if the doctor can't fix this?" She continued as Hiei's hands were now clenching on the the chair so he didn't go after her. "What if my bestfriend will live a life that she knows nothing about..." Keiko said as she sat down.
"Don't worry Keiko, Botan will get back her memory." Kuwabara said as Kurama nodded. "Well we better be careful more than ever." Koenma said aloud. "Why." Hiei said as a demand more than a question. "Because I bet Jurenju already knows that Botan has lost her memory! He'll be doing everything he can now that we have a disadvantadge." Koenma explained. "She's more vulnerable in this state." Kurama added.
"I guess you're right." Yusuke said as the rest of them nodded. Ten minutes later the doctor called them to come inside. "I'm afraid Botan Jaganshi has amnesia." The doctor said as they all looked down. "It seems she has been shocked or something..." He explained. "Has she by any chance been shocked?" Dr. Katsu asked. "Yeah.." Hiei answered. "You can put it that way.." Kuwabara muttered.
"Well the shock was sent up to this part of her brain. It affected her memory." He said. "Is it temporary?" Yukina asked hopefully. "I'm afraid I don't have the answer to that." Dr. Katsu replied as they all sighed and/or looked down. "You should try and take her to familliar places and tell her stories of what happened, tell everything about her life, tell her about herself. These things should help her regain her memories." The doctor said as he smiled.
"Thanks." Keiko said as they all walked out. "Oh and kids, don't bother paying." He said realizing how bad they felt. "Thank you." Yukina said as they walked out. "Let's take Botan to the mall, and then we'll take her to each of our houses." Keiko said. "Fine." Kuwabara replied. "So uh was I nice? I mean am I a good person?" Botan asked. "You're energetic, bubbly, always on top of things, and you're the best friend I've ever had." Keiko said honestly.
"Heck you are the closest thing to an angel!" Kuwabara said. "Oh come on really I-" Botan said as she was cut off. "No really you're the closet thing to an angel...well if you minus all of the beatings you gave Kuwabara and me with your oar. Oh and you're really good at fighting demons." Yusuke replied. "Oars?..Demons?" Botan asked puzzled. "Oh yeah you know nothing about Spirit World and stuff...ehe.." Yusuke said.
They told Botan everything they knew about Spirit World, herself, and Jurenju. "So you stay away from demons." Kurama told her. "Ok." Botan said as she processed all the information they just told her in her head. "So should we go to the mall now?" Keiko asked. "Yeah." Yukina replied. "We're going shopping?!" Botan asked as she brightened up. "Yup." Keiko said as they walked towards the mall. After the mall Botan still didn't remember anything so they went to all their houses.
"Kurama's house was the last one." Kuwabara said as they came out of Kurama's house. "Do you remember anything at all?" Kurama asked. "No." Botan said to everyone and her dissappointment. But each one of them but a smile on their face and acted like everything was alright. Hiei just left his normal expression on as they walked on. "What are we gonna do?" Yusuke whispered to Koenma. "I don't know, we've taken her everywhere and it's nine something!" Koenma replied.
"Yeah and it's already ten something." Kuwabara added. "Ok I'll tell you what how about we go over to Genkais Temple tomorrow and we'll take Botan to some other places." Kurama said as they nodded. "Tell her about places she's been before." Keiko said. "Remind her of some old missions." Koenma told Hiei. "Show her pictures from that party we threw for her before." Kuwabara replied devishly.
'Hm..tell her, remind her, and show her...what advice could I give?' Yusuke thought as something clicked in his brain. "Kiss her!" Yusuke shouted as everyone looked at him like he was crazy and Hiei glared at him. "What it was just a suggestion!" Yusuke defended. "Bye guys." Kurama said as they walked the path to Genkais temple. "I'm sure you'll be able to remember something tomorrow." Yukina told Botan. By now they had been walking for a while so they were close to Genkais'.
"I'm sure you're right." Botna said as she put a smile on her face. "Ok so you're Yukina that's Hiei your twin brother, Keiko is the other girl, Yusuke is the boy with the black hair, Kuwabara is the one who he always figbts with, Kurama is the other red head, and Koenma is the one with the brown hair, Ruler of Spirit World." Botan said. "Right." Yukina replied as she nodded.
"Shit, that's what we forgot." Hiei said to himself. "What?" Botan asked. "We forgot to go to Spirit World I'm sure that's where you will get your memory back." Hiei replied. "Oh I'd love to go and see Spirit World!" Botan said. "Yeah we'll go tomorrow when the bakas come over." Hiei answered as they walked inside the temple. They all went inside their rooms and Botan sat on her bed trying in vain to remember something.
"What are you doing?" Hiei asked her as he walked inside her room. "Trying to remember something....anything." Botan told him. "Do you remember the day you told Yukina I was her sister and I vowed to kill you?" Hiei joked. "But I thought you were my boyfriend?" Botan asked confused as Hiei was caught off guard. "Well...er no not at that time." Hiei told her. "Oh." Botan said.
"So how did we get together?" Botan asked as she blushed a bit and managed to get Hiei caught off guard once again. "..Well after a party we had you told me you loved me. I was too concerned about what was going on with Jurneju and all so I told you that even thought I might love you I couldn't get with you. Then you stormed out of the house and when I reallized I was wrong I found you and told you..." Hiei said as she sighed and said. "How romantic."
It got quiet again but then something started beeping. Not expecting that Botan absent mindedly clung on to Hiei's arm while he just smirked and grabbed soething out of her pocket. "Communication device remember?" Hiei told her. "Ehe..oh yeah." She said as she scratched her the back of her head. "Hiei I'm going to bring Botan's oar over just incase anything happens." Koenma said. "Ok." Hiei replied.
"Hi Koenma!" Botan said as she waved. "Hello Botan..I'll be over soon." He said as they got disconnected. "Just then there was a knock on the door. Botan got up and ran to the door. "Hey Koenma!" She said as he came inside. "How the hell did you get here so fast?" Hiei asked. "A portal." He answered. "Well I have a lot of work to do so I can't stay for small talk." Koenma said as Hiei nodded.
"Here's your oar." Koenma said as he handed the oar to botan. "Thanks!" Botan replied as a portal opened up near Koenma. "No problem, that's my cue. I'll see you guys later." Koenma told them as he stepped into the portal and was transported to Spirit World. "Wow this is so cool! I can actually fly on this thing?!" Botan asked in amazment. "Yeah you can." Hiei replied as her eyes widened with delight.
"Oh wow that's great I'm going to go right now!" Botan said as she hooked her arm with Hiei's and ran outside. She mounted herself on the oar and slowly began to rise. She flew aruond a few times until she finally came down. "That is...amazing!" She said as she held on to her oar. She shivered a bit realizing how cold it actually was since she was wearing a tank top and shorts. "I think you should go back inside." Hiei told her as she nodded in agreement.
They both walked into their seperate rooms. Botan put her oar next to her closet and as she walked back towards the bed. On the way to the bed she saw a few pictures on the dresser. She picked them up and sat down on her bed. There was one that caught her eye. It was a picture of Hiei on top of Botan and they were both covered with food. Botans hair was stained red with ketchup and Hiei had a mixture of different foods all over him.
Yukina and Keiko were both on the left side of them. Keiko had heart-eyes and Yukina was smiling with delight. Kurama looked like he'd just accomplished something and Koenma was smirking. 'Kuwabara and Yusuke must've taken this.' Botan thought as she couldn't help but giggle. Just then Hiei walked by. "What are you laughing at?" He asked as he walked inside her room and went to see what she was holding.
"These." She said as she showed him all the pictures, the one on the top was the one she had been looking at. 'Shit..I thought I took all the pictures the bakas took.' Hiei thought as he blushed slightly. "We all look so happy...' Botan said as she smiled sadly. "Uh yeah..." Hiei replied. "I wish I could remember everything...really I do." Botan said as she could feel hot tears spring to her eyes.
"Do you know how it feels living with all these people who know and love you but you don't even know yourself? I am really trying hard to remember everything so you guys will be happy again, but I can't.." Botan replied. "You don't have to try so hard, you're not letting us down or anything." Hiei told her. "But I am....I can see it. Everytime I can't remember you all get sad but then act like it's ok." Botan said. "Don't worry, it will be ok." Hiei replied.
"No, what if it won't? What if I never remember anything?" Botan continued as she flung herself on Hiei and cried. Yukina and Genkai were right outside because they had heard some crying and they were wondering what was going on. Yukina moved foward as if she was going to help comfort Botan but Genkai stopped her. "Let him do it." Genkai told the ice apparition as they walked away.
He put his arms around her and tried to comfort her. "You will be ok, promise." Hiei told her hoping that it would be enough to calm her down since he wasn't really good at this sort of thing. "You're right." She said as she let go of him and wiped her tearstained eyes. "Thank you Hiei." Botan said as she smiled. "Your welcome." Hiei said softly as he left the room and walked into his. Just then he stopped.
Hiei grabbed his katana from his room and walked into hers. She was already asleep or so he thought. "Maybe I should stay in here just incase anything happens." He said quietly to himself. He sat down on the chair but he heard Botan speak. "You could sleep on the other side of the bed it's huge and plus I don't think it's very comfortable to sleep in a chair." Botan said as she laughed and sat up from the bed.
"Trust me I've slept on harder things." Hiei told her as he walked and sat on the bed. "Oh yeah Yusuke told me that you have a tendency of sleeping in trees!" She replied as she giggled. "It's not that funny." Hiei told her as he slipped into the bed. "It really is." Botan said as she layed down and covered up. "Thanks." Botan said as she closed her eyes. "For what?" Hiei asked her. "For staying in here to protect me." Botan replied as she silently fell asleep and soon after Hiei.
Morning
Botan woke up and Hiei was already in the kitchen. She got herself ready, put the communication device in her pocket, and then she walked into the kitchen. "Good morning." Botan said to everyone as she sat down. "Morning." They all replied as they continued to eat. "Oh guess what?" Botan bursted out. "What?" Yukina responded. "Hiei said that he'd take me to Spirit World! I can't wait." Botan replied as she finished eating her food.
She walked back inside her room and saw the pictures. She looked at it once more then placed it on her bed with a smile on her face. Just then Hiei walked in. 'Telling her old stories and stuff should help..' Hiei thought as he sat down on the bed next to her. "You want to hear some stories from before?" Hiei asked. "Yeah sure." Botan replied happily as her eyes lit up with joy.
"Ok we went inside the Demon Cafe to obtain information on Jurenju. You had to dress up as a waitress and you were wearing...let's just say really revealing clothes. You were so pissed we all thought you were going to murder Koenma." Hiei said as Botan laughed. "Really?" She asked questioningly as she held back another giggle. "Yeah." He replied as she laughed. "Got anymore?" Botan asked.
"Yeah, well there was this one time when-" Hiei started as he suddenly got cut off. "Hey guys what's up?" Yusuke asked loudly as they turned their attention towards him. "Oh hi everyone." Botan said as they all replied. "Hmm what's this?" Kuwabara asked as he pulled the picture off of the bed. "Ehe..that's nothing, I was just looki-" Botan replied as seh was cut off by Yusuke.
"Hey this is from the picnic!" Yusuke replied as he smirked. "Keeping it as good memories eh Hiei?" Yusuke questionned as Hiei glared at him. "No." Hiei replied as he grabbed the picture and put it on her dresserr. "So does she-" Kurama replied as he stopped when he saw Hiei mouth the words no. "Let's take her to Spirit World." Hiei said. "Oh yeah" Koenma responded realizing they forgot about going to Spirit World.
"Alright then let's go." Keiko said as they all nodded. "Spirit World here we c-" Yusuke replied as he opened the door and cut himself off. There were demons surrounding Genkais temple, and there were too many for them to fight. Yusuke quickly shut the door and looked at the others. "Ugh guys I think we have a problem..ehe.." Yusuke said as they nodded. "It must be Jurenju." Hiei spat with disgust.
"He probably found out about Botan so he's sending demons here to kill her." Genkai said as Botans eyes widened. "What are we going to do now?" Yukina asked. "Botan get in your room, hurry." Hiei told he ras she obeyed him and walked inside her room. "Hiei you should follow her befo-" Kurama said as he was silenced by the screaming of Botan. With a nod from Kurama, Hiei ran inside the room.
There he found Botan next to a demon in the corner of the room. He threw a punch at her but she dodged it. When they heard Hiei enter both their attentions were turned towards him. Botan took this chance to run behind Hiei. "Ha! Hiei's going to beat you good!" Botan said confident of Hiei's skills. "What did you say ferry girl?!" The demon shouted at Botan as she jumped at the sound of his voice.
"N-nothing." Botan replied as she shut up and continued to hide behind Hiei. "Go close the window." Hiei said as he ran towards the demon. Botan took this opportunity to go up to the window and shut it. She could see many demons in through the window and once they saw her they started shouting. "I did it." Botan told Hieias she looked to see he had already killed the demon too.
"Wow you beat him so fast!" Botan said amazed as she smiled at him. "Is everyone ok in here?" Yusuke asked as the others soon followed behind him. "Yes. The demon got in through the window so we should close all the others." He said as they all took his advice and closed all the windows in the temple. "Ok, Kurama has a plan that will buy us some time." Koenma said when they all finished window closing.
"Someone will go and distract the demons while I plant a seed that will act as a shield and protect the temple." Kurama said. "You can do that?" Hiei asked. "Yes." Kurama replied. "So who are we going to use?" Kuwabara asked fearful that it might be him. "I'll go you wuss." Yusuke announced as he walked outside and shut the door while Kuwabara muttered a few words. "Wait someone needs to go in the back since the demons are there too." Yukina informed as Kuwabara spoke.
"I will go and risk my life to protect you anytime babe." Kuwabara said as smooth as he could as he earned a glare from Hiei. "Well what are you freaks waiting for?! Come and get me!" Yusuke yelled obnoxiously as none of them amde an attempt to move. "What do you think we are stupid?" A blue demon said as he shook his head. "The moment we go to attack you, you'll sneak that ferry girl right out of here."A red demon replied as he steeped foward.
"Hmm..that would've been a good idea." Yusuke whispered to himself. "No! Why would we sneak her outback when there are demons there too huh?" Yusuke asked. "I don't know but I can tell you're planning something. I can see it in your eyes." What appeared to be the leader said. "Come on guys..-er demons. You can't be that afraid of little old ningen me!" Yusuke mocked angering some of the demons.
"Us demons afraid of you ningens? Ha." A green large demon said. "Then come on and take some of that anger out on me...unless you're too afraid to do it." Yusuke replied once more. A demon stepped foward as the leader put his hand in front of him. "No don't you see he's trying to anger you?' The leader spoke. "But Ziryu!" The green one pleaded as he was cut off by none other than Yusuke.
"Yeah that's right, hide behind your leader. Just like the coward you are!" Yusuke shouted enraging the demon. "I can't let you mock us any longer ningen." The demon said icily as he shot a red energy ball towards Yusuke. "Spirit Gun!" Yusuke yelled as his blue energy consumed the red and went hirling back towards the demon. It hit him and killed him. "Yeah anyone else want a piece of me!" Yusuke replied at his victory.
"See that is what happens when you are careless." Ziryu said as he pointed to the demons ashes. "Make no mistake we will succeed in capturing Botan." Ziryu told Yusuke as he glared at him. "Damn it someone attack me already!" Yusuke yelled in frustration. Yusuke walked inside Genkais temple not seeing the others eager faces to see what had happened out there. "This is shit." He told himself as he looked up to see everyone watching him.
"I take it you didn't go so well out there on account of your profoun words." Kurama said as Yusuke nodded. "Yeah they wouldn't budge they said we'd slip Botan out of here." Yusuke told them. "That's the same thing the baka said." Hiei replied. "I think we should bring Botan out there." Kurama stated as they all looked at him like he was on crack. "What? Are you out of your freaking mind? That's just like sending her to her death bed." Hiei yelled.
"Calm down Hiei, come on what do you take me for? We'll be out there protecting her the whole time of course." Kurama said as their faces became relaxed again. "You guys can go out through the front while I go out through the back. Form a protective circle around Botan just long enough for me to plant the seed." Kurama said as they nodded. "I'm going too." Genkai replied. "Are you sure you're up for it, grandma. We wouldn't want you breaking your back or anything?" Yusuke asked.
"Shut it dimwit." Genkai said as they walked towards the door. "I'm going o-out t-there?" Botan asked as Hiei nodded. "Yes. Don't worry. I-we will protect you." Hiei told her calmly as she smiled sincerly. They walked outside and as soon as they did the demons had spotted Botan. "Hey look there she is." A demon replied from the crowd. The demons quckly forgot about the mission and tried to overpower them.
The demons from the front heard the fighting and came to them to fight as well. When everyone was too engrossed in their fighting, Kurama snuck out of the temple and into the back. Every now and thena demons hand was able to reach Botan but she either screamed or hit it away herself. Genkai sent a variety of energy blasts, Yusuke used his shot gun, Kuwabara used his spirit sword, and Hiei used his katana.
Kurama pulled something out of his pocket. It was a purple seed that seemed to have an aura around it. He transferred some of his Spirit Energy into it and threw it a few feet away from the temple. Soon after, vines began to grow and cover Genkais temple. When it was all done he ran inside through the front door. When the others saw the vines they ran inside the house and quickly shut the door.
"The shield is a barrier that will last for a short amount of time. This will give us more time to plan out our next moves." Kurama said. "So, what should we do?" Keiko asked. "What about that portal thing you used before Koenma?" Botan asked as Koenmas face lit up. "That's it Botan you're a genius!" Koenma said as she smiled. "Thanks." Botan replied. "Hand me your communication mirror." Koenma said.
"Sure..it's..uh it's somewhere." Botan replied as she continued to search her pockets. "Oh no." Botan said as she frowned. "What is it." Hiei asked her. "It must've fallen out when we were outside. "Now what are we going to do?" Yukina asked. "I can go back out and look for it...I mean I remember where it was." Botan suggested. "We could distract the demons again. They're all in the front right?" Kurama asked as Kuwabara nodded.
"Well why don't you say if they can defeat you five, they get Botan?" Koenma replied. "That's a good idea." Yusuke said. "While we fight them Botan can look for it..just be careful." Hiei told her. "Let's go now then." Kuwabara said as they all nodded and walked back outside except for Botan. "Hey! We don't want you ningens and demon betrayers out here! All we want is that damn girl!" A demon shouted.
"Well if you would shut your mouths you'd be able to listen to the proposition we have." Genkai said as they all quieted down. "If you can defeat us Botan is all yours. Just walk right in and kidnap her." Yusuke replied as the demons looked around at eachother in amazement. "It's that easy?" A red one asked. "Yeah." Kuwabara answered. Well lets fight then." One said as they all rushed towards the others.
All except Ziryu went to fight he stayed behind and looked for anything suspisious. Botan walked through the back door and she crawled just in case any demon would look behind them. She saw something blue shine so she walked towards the object. "Got it!" She said aloud as she gave herself a mental pat on the back. "And I've got you." Ziryu said as she slowly looked up to see his cold gray eyes meet her magenta orbs.
"Oh no." She whispered quickly as she stood up. Then she remembered when Yusuke said she was good at fighting demons. She closed her eyes and her fist made contact with the demons stomach. "Quite a punch you've got their girlie.." The demon said as he fell backwards unconcious. She opened her eyes to see Hiei looking at her as if she'd impressed him. "Come on let's go." Hiei said as they ran through the back.
"Great you guys got it!" Koenma replied as Botan handed him the communication mirror. "George I need you to get Ikaji to make me another portal. One that starts at Genkais temple to spirit world." Koenma said. "Ok." George replied as they got disconnected. A few minutes later George called back. Get read the portals going to be outside any second. "Ok thanks bye." Koenma said as they got disconnected once more.
"Get ready to run out there." Yusuke said as they all nodded. They opened the door and sure enough the portal was there. Botan went first, then Keiko, Yukina, Koenma, Genkai, Kuwabara, Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiei. They were transported to Koenmas desk and they took Botan everywhere. In every room that Koenma knew of, and even in the bathrooms. "So do you remember anything?" Yukina asked as Botan looked down.
She closed her eyes for a second trying to remember anything but nothing came up. "N-no." She said as she felt tears come to her eyes. "Hey Botan don't cry...um I bet this amnesia thing takes a while to recover from." Kuwabara reassured her. "Yeah once you get information in your head you just have to wait a while for you to actually process it and then bam you'll remember." Yusuke said trying his best to sound like he knew what he was talking about.
"Maybe." Botan said skeptically. "Come on I'm sure of it. Let's go to the park." Keiko said as they walked. "Here's some good news. The demons left." Koenma replied. "I'm going to go home and clean up the mess those demons left." Genkai replied. "When you come back I'm sure you'll have your memory with you." Genkai said as she left. "I have a lot of papers to stamp. I'll see you later Botan." Koenma replied as he walked towards his office
"To the park we go." Yukina said as they led Botan to the park. They went to a small clearing surrounded by sakura trees. They waited a while until someone brok ethe slience. "So uh you remember anything now?" Kuwabara asked. "No." Botan said as she sat down on the bench and started to cry. Hiei sat down by her just before he was about to say something Botan spoke.
"I- I'm really sorry I couldn't remember anything guys...I know how dissappointed you must be now." Botan said. "No, don't be foolish. We aren't mad or dissappointed in you Botan." Keiko replied trying not to cry. "Yeah we just want you to be able to remember again." Yukina added. "But I don't think I'll ever remember again." Botan said as she continued to cry. Hiei not knowing what to do just stared in shock. 'What if she really doesn't remember again.' Hiei thought.
Keiko and Yukina sensed that Hiei was in a small state of shock so they tried to help Botan. Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara just looked away with sad faces as reality hit them smakc in the face. As Botan continued to cry memories of past missions went through her head. Her childhood, dying, missions, friends, and everything was brought back to her. She stopped crying and looked up with a confused look on her face.
"Botan!" Keiko said the fourth time as Botans attention was turned to her. "I-I remember!" Botan cried with hapiness as her face was bright once again. Hiei looked towards her and he sighed in relief. Just then he remembered where they were. This was the place that Hiei told Botan he loved her back. "I remember." She whispered as she hugged Hiei. He almost fell back when she did this because he wasn't expecting it but then regained his composure.
He hugged her back and everyones faces were relaxed as they smlied watching the site. Yusuke and Kuwabara wondered why she remembered at this very spot, but they both decided to save that ridiculing for tomorrow. They stood up and Botan spoke once more. "Guys I wanna thank you for helping me and taking me to all those places." Botan said as she smiled. "How could we not?" Yusuke asked.
"Thanks guys." Botan said as she tried to ignore the weak feeling she felt. "No problem, it was fun dragging you everywhere." Yusuke replied as he smiled. "Hey Botan, you feeling ok? You don't look to good." Kuwabara stated as tehy all watched her. "I- I feel really weak now..." Botan said as her breathing became more heavy and her eyes closed slowly. Before she fell Hiei caught her. "What the hell?" He asked as they all turned to Kurama.
"What you guys expect me to know these things? I don't know everything." Kurama replied. "Oh man what do we do?" Kuwabara asked. "Ok so maybe I do know thist but still I won't know everything. Botan has just regained her memory, this has put a great deal of stress on to her body, therefore she fainted." Kurama explained as everyone nodded. "So what do I do with her?" Hiei asked Kurama.
"Let her rest." Kurama replied. "We should go back to Genkais temple then. Bye guys." Yukina said as she waved goodbye. "Bye." They replied as Yukina, and Hiei with Botan in his arms walked away. They walked and walked until they finally reached Genkais temple. Genkai was out there waiting for them. "Is she ok." She asked. "Yeah just tired, she regained her memory." Hiei replied as they entered.
He rested Botan on her bed and then left the room. For the rest of the day everyone was basically in there rooms minding their own business. Botan woke up a few hours later. She got up and off the bed, and walked into Hiei's room. "Hey Hiei." Botan said as Hiei turned towards her. "Oh you're up." He replied as he got up from the bed. "Yeah...um thanks for comforting me last night...I know that it was probably hard for you." Botan said as she smlied.
"Your welcome." Hiei replied. "I wonder when we're going to go after Jurenju." Botan asked as she sat down on his bed. "I was thinking around tomorrow...I mean he's just going to keep on sending demon after demon. We might as well go to him now. We have the horn, so it should be easy." Hiei said in a cocky tone. "Did you tell the others?" Botan asked. "No but I'm sure they're thinking the same thing." Hiei replied.
"I'm starving I'm going to go get something to eat. Thanks again." Botan said as she kissed him and walked towards the door. Before she saw the picture that she saw last night. "Keeping good memories eh Hiei?" Botan joked as she picked up the picture. "I put it here so Yusuke wouldn't say anything." Hiei replied back. "Uh huh right Hiei." Botan said as she laughed. "I'm serious!" He yelled as she continued to laugh and ran out the door before he could say anything else.
Jurenju
"So....the fools think they're going to get me tomorrow?" He said as he looked through the crystal ball. "Well ... they'll be in a state of shock once they see what I have planned for them.." He replied as he waved his hand over the ball and it stopped showing images. "Matsu." He called as she entered. "Yes master?" She asked. "Those fools are planning on coming here tomorrow." Jurenju said.
"Really!?" She asked. "Yeah. I want you to get everything ready for their arrival. Remember what we talked about." Jurenjus replied as she bowed and left.

(My Notes)
"Speaking"
'Thinking'
Telepathy
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho.......but I really wish I could, then there'd be lots of Hiei and Botan fluff!!! MWHAHAHAHAH! Ahem..enough with that. Oh yeah Hiei is taller in this story and Koenma is always in his Teenage form ok?
Chapter: Amnesia sucks.
"Well?..Who am I?" Botan asked again as everyone stared at her blankly. "Oh, so I take it you guys don't know who I am either..." Botan said sadly as she looked down. "We know who you are y-you're Botan." Koenma managed to say. "Oh that's a nice name." Botan replied as seh smiled. "Yeah it is but, are you sure you don't remember anything, not even us?" Keiko asked. "No, I can't remember anything at all." Botan told her.
"We should take Botan to the hospital." Kurama said to Hiei as Botan got up. "We are taking you to the doctor." Hiei told her. "Oh will the doctor help me remember who I am and everything?" Botan asked hopefully. "He should be able to." Hiei reassured her. 'Or i'll slit his neck....' Hiei thought as he followed the others. "Great." Botan said as she followed everyone. When they reached the hospital they walked up to the counter.
"Hello, what do you kids need?" A woman asked polietly as she smiled at them. "Well you see our friend, she can't remember anything at all." Kuwabara replied as the womans smile turned into a frown. "Oh my that's bad. Hmmm Dr. Katsu is free now." She said as they all hurried off to find him. Soon after they came back. "Ehe...would you mind telling us where he is?" Yusuke asked as he scratched the back of his head.
"Well I was going to tell you kids but you ran off so fast. Room 218 on the second floor." She answered. "Thank you." Yukina said as they all hurried off again. They walked into the elevator and Kurama pressed the button. 'I hope she's ok.' Hiei thought as he watched her from the corner of his eye. They walked inside the room to find a doctor waiting for them. "Hello, I am doctor Katsu." The doctor said as they walked towards him.
"Our friend has lost her memory." Koenma told him. "Miss do you know who you are?" He asked as he walked towards Botan. "No." She said sadly. "I see, what about them?" Dr. Katsu continued to ask. "No." She replied again. "Hmm...what's her name?" He questioned. "Botan." Yukina said. "And last name?" He continued. "Er..Jaganshi." Yusuke said quickly as Hiei glared at him and everyone else looked his way.
"Yusuke how could you be so cruel one of your closest friends has just lost her memory and you're making fun of her?" Keiko whispered angrilly. "Well do you know her last name? I think not, I just saved your butts and plus I'm guessing Hiei's the one she's gonna marry." Yusuke whispered back. "Alright, would you guys mind waiting in the room to the left of this one?" Dr. Katsu asked as they nodded and walked out.
"I hope she's going to be alright.." Keiko said. "She wiill." Hiei shot back. "But, what if she never gets her memory back!" Keiko said as she stood up and Hiei shot a death glare unnoticed by her. "What if the doctor can't fix this?" She continued as Hiei's hands were now clenching on the the chair so he didn't go after her. "What if my bestfriend will live a life that she knows nothing about..." Keiko said as she sat down.
"Don't worry Keiko, Botan will get back her memory." Kuwabara said as Kurama nodded. "Well we better be careful more than ever." Koenma said aloud. "Why." Hiei said as a demand more than a question. "Because I bet Jurenju already knows that Botan has lost her memory! He'll be doing everything he can now that we have a disadvantadge." Koenma explained. "She's more vulnerable in this state." Kurama added.
"I guess you're right." Yusuke said as the rest of them nodded. Ten minutes later the doctor called them to come inside. "I'm afraid Botan Jaganshi has amnesia." The doctor said as they all looked down. "It seems she has been shocked or something..." He explained. "Has she by any chance been shocked?" Dr. Katsu asked. "Yeah.." Hiei answered. "You can put it that way.." Kuwabara muttered.
"Well the shock was sent up to this part of her brain. It affected her memory." He said. "Is it temporary?" Yukina asked hopefully. "I'm afraid I don't have the answer to that." Dr. Katsu replied as they all sighed and/or looked down. "You should try and take her to familliar places and tell her stories of what happened, tell everything about her life, tell her about herself. These things should help her regain her memories." The doctor said as he smiled.
"Thanks." Keiko said as they all walked out. "Oh and kids, don't bother paying." He said realizing how bad they felt. "Thank you." Yukina said as they walked out. "Let's take Botan to the mall, and then we'll take her to each of our houses." Keiko said. "Fine." Kuwabara replied. "So uh was I nice? I mean am I a good person?" Botan asked. "You're energetic, bubbly, always on top of things, and you're the best friend I've ever had." Keiko said honestly.
"Heck you are the closest thing to an angel!" Kuwabara said. "Oh come on really I-" Botan said as she was cut off. "No really you're the closet thing to an angel...well if you minus all of the beatings you gave Kuwabara and me with your oar. Oh and you're really good at fighting demons." Yusuke replied. "Oars?..Demons?" Botan asked puzzled. "Oh yeah you know nothing about Spirit World and stuff...ehe.." Yusuke said.
They told Botan everything they knew about Spirit World, herself, and Jurenju. "So you stay away from demons." Kurama told her. "Ok." Botan said as she processed all the information they just told her in her head. "So should we go to the mall now?" Keiko asked. "Yeah." Yukina replied. "We're going shopping?!" Botan asked as she brightened up. "Yup." Keiko said as they walked towards the mall. After the mall Botan still didn't remember anything so they went to all their houses.
"Kurama's house was the last one." Kuwabara said as they came out of Kurama's house. "Do you remember anything at all?" Kurama asked. "No." Botan said to everyone and her dissappointment. But each one of them but a smile on their face and acted like everything was alright. Hiei just left his normal expression on as they walked on. "What are we gonna do?" Yusuke whispered to Koenma. "I don't know, we've taken her everywhere and it's nine something!" Koenma replied.
"Yeah and it's already ten something." Kuwabara added. "Ok I'll tell you what how about we go over to Genkais Temple tomorrow and we'll take Botan to some other places." Kurama said as they nodded. "Tell her about places she's been before." Keiko said. "Remind her of some old missions." Koenma told Hiei. "Show her pictures from that party we threw for her before." Kuwabara replied devishly.
'Hm..tell her, remind her, and show her...what advice could I give?' Yusuke thought as something clicked in his brain. "Kiss her!" Yusuke shouted as everyone looked at him like he was crazy and Hiei glared at him. "What it was just a suggestion!" Yusuke defended. "Bye guys." Kurama said as they walked the path to Genkais temple. "I'm sure you'll be able to remember something tomorrow." Yukina told Botan. By now they had been walking for a while so they were close to Genkais'.
"I'm sure you're right." Botna said as she put a smile on her face. "Ok so you're Yukina that's Hiei your twin brother, Keiko is the other girl, Yusuke is the boy with the black hair, Kuwabara is the one who he always figbts with, Kurama is the other red head, and Koenma is the one with the brown hair, Ruler of Spirit World." Botan said. "Right." Yukina replied as she nodded.
"Shit, that's what we forgot." Hiei said to himself. "What?" Botan asked. "We forgot to go to Spirit World I'm sure that's where you will get your memory back." Hiei replied. "Oh I'd love to go and see Spirit World!" Botan said. "Yeah we'll go tomorrow when the bakas come over." Hiei answered as they walked inside the temple. They all went inside their rooms and Botan sat on her bed trying in vain to remember something.
"What are you doing?" Hiei asked her as he walked inside her room. "Trying to remember something....anything." Botan told him. "Do you remember the day you told Yukina I was her sister and I vowed to kill you?" Hiei joked. "But I thought you were my boyfriend?" Botan asked confused as Hiei was caught off guard. "Well...er no not at that time." Hiei told her. "Oh." Botan said.
"So how did we get together?" Botan asked as she blushed a bit and managed to get Hiei caught off guard once again. "..Well after a party we had you told me you loved me. I was too concerned about what was going on with Jurneju and all so I told you that even thought I might love you I couldn't get with you. Then you stormed out of the house and when I reallized I was wrong I found you and told you..." Hiei said as she sighed and said. "How romantic."
It got quiet again but then something started beeping. Not expecting that Botan absent mindedly clung on to Hiei's arm while he just smirked and grabbed soething out of her pocket. "Communication device remember?" Hiei told her. "Ehe..oh yeah." She said as she scratched her the back of her head. "Hiei I'm going to bring Botan's oar over just incase anything happens." Koenma said. "Ok." Hiei replied.
"Hi Koenma!" Botan said as she waved. "Hello Botan..I'll be over soon." He said as they got disconnected. "Just then there was a knock on the door. Botan got up and ran to the door. "Hey Koenma!" She said as he came inside. "How the hell did you get here so fast?" Hiei asked. "A portal." He answered. "Well I have a lot of work to do so I can't stay for small talk." Koenma said as Hiei nodded.
"Here's your oar." Koenma said as he handed the oar to botan. "Thanks!" Botan replied as a portal opened up near Koenma. "No problem, that's my cue. I'll see you guys later." Koenma told them as he stepped into the portal and was transported to Spirit World. "Wow this is so cool! I can actually fly on this thing?!" Botan asked in amazment. "Yeah you can." Hiei replied as her eyes widened with delight.
"Oh wow that's great I'm going to go right now!" Botan said as she hooked her arm with Hiei's and ran outside. She mounted herself on the oar and slowly began to rise. She flew aruond a few times until she finally came down. "That is...amazing!" She said as she held on to her oar. She shivered a bit realizing how cold it actually was since she was wearing a tank top and shorts. "I think you should go back inside." Hiei told her as she nodded in agreement.
They both walked into their seperate rooms. Botan put her oar next to her closet and as she walked back towards the bed. On the way to the bed she saw a few pictures on the dresser. She picked them up and sat down on her bed. There was one that caught her eye. It was a picture of Hiei on top of Botan and they were both covered with food. Botans hair was stained red with ketchup and Hiei had a mixture of different foods all over him.
Yukina and Keiko were both on the left side of them. Keiko had heart-eyes and Yukina was smiling with delight. Kurama looked like he'd just accomplished something and Koenma was smirking. 'Kuwabara and Yusuke must've taken this.' Botan thought as she couldn't help but giggle. Just then Hiei walked by. "What are you laughing at?" He asked as he walked inside her room and went to see what she was holding.
"These." She said as she showed him all the pictures, the one on the top was the one she had been looking at. 'Shit..I thought I took all the pictures the bakas took.' Hiei thought as he blushed slightly. "We all look so happy...' Botan said as she smiled sadly. "Uh yeah..." Hiei replied. "I wish I could remember everything...really I do." Botan said as she could feel hot tears spring to her eyes.
"Do you know how it feels living with all these people who know and love you but you don't even know yourself? I am really trying hard to remember everything so you guys will be happy again, but I can't.." Botan replied. "You don't have to try so hard, you're not letting us down or anything." Hiei told her. "But I am....I can see it. Everytime I can't remember you all get sad but then act like it's ok." Botan said. "Don't worry, it will be ok." Hiei replied.
"No, what if it won't? What if I never remember anything?" Botan continued as she flung herself on Hiei and cried. Yukina and Genkai were right outside because they had heard some crying and they were wondering what was going on. Yukina moved foward as if she was going to help comfort Botan but Genkai stopped her. "Let him do it." Genkai told the ice apparition as they walked away.
He put his arms around her and tried to comfort her. "You will be ok, promise." Hiei told her hoping that it would be enough to calm her down since he wasn't really good at this sort of thing. "You're right." She said as she let go of him and wiped her tearstained eyes. "Thank you Hiei." Botan said as she smiled. "Your welcome." Hiei said softly as he left the room and walked into his. Just then he stopped.
Hiei grabbed his katana from his room and walked into hers. She was already asleep or so he thought. "Maybe I should stay in here just incase anything happens." He said quietly to himself. He sat down on the chair but he heard Botan speak. "You could sleep on the other side of the bed it's huge and plus I don't think it's very comfortable to sleep in a chair." Botan said as she laughed and sat up from the bed.
"Trust me I've slept on harder things." Hiei told her as he walked and sat on the bed. "Oh yeah Yusuke told me that you have a tendency of sleeping in trees!" She replied as she giggled. "It's not that funny." Hiei told her as he slipped into the bed. "It really is." Botan said as she layed down and covered up. "Thanks." Botan said as she closed her eyes. "For what?" Hiei asked her. "For staying in here to protect me." Botan replied as she silently fell asleep and soon after Hiei.
Morning
Botan woke up and Hiei was already in the kitchen. She got herself ready, put the communication device in her pocket, and then she walked into the kitchen. "Good morning." Botan said to everyone as she sat down. "Morning." They all replied as they continued to eat. "Oh guess what?" Botan bursted out. "What?" Yukina responded. "Hiei said that he'd take me to Spirit World! I can't wait." Botan replied as she finished eating her food.
She walked back inside her room and saw the pictures. She looked at it once more then placed it on her bed with a smile on her face. Just then Hiei walked in. 'Telling her old stories and stuff should help..' Hiei thought as he sat down on the bed next to her. "You want to hear some stories from before?" Hiei asked. "Yeah sure." Botan replied happily as her eyes lit up with joy.
"Ok we went inside the Demon Cafe to obtain information on Jurenju. You had to dress up as a waitress and you were wearing...let's just say really revealing clothes. You were so pissed we all thought you were going to murder Koenma." Hiei said as Botan laughed. "Really?" She asked questioningly as she held back another giggle. "Yeah." He replied as she laughed. "Got anymore?" Botan asked.
"Yeah, well there was this one time when-" Hiei started as he suddenly got cut off. "Hey guys what's up?" Yusuke asked loudly as they turned their attention towards him. "Oh hi everyone." Botan said as they all replied. "Hmm what's this?" Kuwabara asked as he pulled the picture off of the bed. "Ehe..that's nothing, I was just looki-" Botan replied as seh was cut off by Yusuke.
"Hey this is from the picnic!" Yusuke replied as he smirked. "Keeping it as good memories eh Hiei?" Yusuke questionned as Hiei glared at him. "No." Hiei replied as he grabbed the picture and put it on her dresserr. "So does she-" Kurama replied as he stopped when he saw Hiei mouth the words no. "Let's take her to Spirit World." Hiei said. "Oh yeah" Koenma responded realizing they forgot about going to Spirit World.
"Alright then let's go." Keiko said as they all nodded. "Spirit World here we c-" Yusuke replied as he opened the door and cut himself off. There were demons surrounding Genkais temple, and there were too many for them to fight. Yusuke quickly shut the door and looked at the others. "Ugh guys I think we have a problem..ehe.." Yusuke said as they nodded. "It must be Jurenju." Hiei spat with disgust.
"He probably found out about Botan so he's sending demons here to kill her." Genkai said as Botans eyes widened. "What are we going to do now?" Yukina asked. "Botan get in your room, hurry." Hiei told he ras she obeyed him and walked inside her room. "Hiei you should follow her befo-" Kurama said as he was silenced by the screaming of Botan. With a nod from Kurama, Hiei ran inside the room.
There he found Botan next to a demon in the corner of the room. He threw a punch at her but she dodged it. When they heard Hiei enter both their attentions were turned towards him. Botan took this chance to run behind Hiei. "Ha! Hiei's going to beat you good!" Botan said confident of Hiei's skills. "What did you say ferry girl?!" The demon shouted at Botan as she jumped at the sound of his voice.
"N-nothing." Botan replied as she shut up and continued to hide behind Hiei. "Go close the window." Hiei said as he ran towards the demon. Botan took this opportunity to go up to the window and shut it. She could see many demons in through the window and once they saw her they started shouting. "I did it." Botan told Hieias she looked to see he had already killed the demon too.
"Wow you beat him so fast!" Botan said amazed as she smiled at him. "Is everyone ok in here?" Yusuke asked as the others soon followed behind him. "Yes. The demon got in through the window so we should close all the others." He said as they all took his advice and closed all the windows in the temple. "Ok, Kurama has a plan that will buy us some time." Koenma said when they all finished window closing.
"Someone will go and distract the demons while I plant a seed that will act as a shield and protect the temple." Kurama said. "You can do that?" Hiei asked. "Yes." Kurama replied. "So who are we going to use?" Kuwabara asked fearful that it might be him. "I'll go you wuss." Yusuke announced as he walked outside and shut the door while Kuwabara muttered a few words. "Wait someone needs to go in the back since the demons are there too." Yukina informed as Kuwabara spoke.
"I will go and risk my life to protect you anytime babe." Kuwabara said as smooth as he could as he earned a glare from Hiei. "Well what are you freaks waiting for?! Come and get me!" Yusuke yelled obnoxiously as none of them amde an attempt to move. "What do you think we are stupid?" A blue demon said as he shook his head. "The moment we go to attack you, you'll sneak that ferry girl right out of here."A red demon replied as he steeped foward.
"Hmm..that would've been a good idea." Yusuke whispered to himself. "No! Why would we sneak her outback when there are demons there too huh?" Yusuke asked. "I don't know but I can tell you're planning something. I can see it in your eyes." What appeared to be the leader said. "Come on guys..-er demons. You can't be that afraid of little old ningen me!" Yusuke mocked angering some of the demons.
"Us demons afraid of you ningens? Ha." A green large demon said. "Then come on and take some of that anger out on me...unless you're too afraid to do it." Yusuke replied once more. A demon stepped foward as the leader put his hand in front of him. "No don't you see he's trying to anger you?' The leader spoke. "But Ziryu!" The green one pleaded as he was cut off by none other than Yusuke.
"Yeah that's right, hide behind your leader. Just like the coward you are!" Yusuke shouted enraging the demon. "I can't let you mock us any longer ningen." The demon said icily as he shot a red energy ball towards Yusuke. "Spirit Gun!" Yusuke yelled as his blue energy consumed the red and went hirling back towards the demon. It hit him and killed him. "Yeah anyone else want a piece of me!" Yusuke replied at his victory.
"See that is what happens when you are careless." Ziryu said as he pointed to the demons ashes. "Make no mistake we will succeed in capturing Botan." Ziryu told Yusuke as he glared at him. "Damn it someone attack me already!" Yusuke yelled in frustration. Yusuke walked inside Genkais temple not seeing the others eager faces to see what had happened out there. "This is shit." He told himself as he looked up to see everyone watching him.
"I take it you didn't go so well out there on account of your profoun words." Kurama said as Yusuke nodded. "Yeah they wouldn't budge they said we'd slip Botan out of here." Yusuke told them. "That's the same thing the baka said." Hiei replied. "I think we should bring Botan out there." Kurama stated as they all looked at him like he was on crack. "What? Are you out of your freaking mind? That's just like sending her to her death bed." Hiei yelled.
"Calm down Hiei, come on what do you take me for? We'll be out there protecting her the whole time of course." Kurama said as their faces became relaxed again. "You guys can go out through the front while I go out through the back. Form a protective circle around Botan just long enough for me to plant the seed." Kurama said as they nodded. "I'm going too." Genkai replied. "Are you sure you're up for it, grandma. We wouldn't want you breaking your back or anything?" Yusuke asked.
"Shut it dimwit." Genkai said as they walked towards the door. "I'm going o-out t-there?" Botan asked as Hiei nodded. "Yes. Don't worry. I-we will protect you." Hiei told her calmly as she smiled sincerly. They walked outside and as soon as they did the demons had spotted Botan. "Hey look there she is." A demon replied from the crowd. The demons quckly forgot about the mission and tried to overpower them.
The demons from the front heard the fighting and came to them to fight as well. When everyone was too engrossed in their fighting, Kurama snuck out of the temple and into the back. Every now and thena demons hand was able to reach Botan but she either screamed or hit it away herself. Genkai sent a variety of energy blasts, Yusuke used his shot gun, Kuwabara used his spirit sword, and Hiei used his katana.
Kurama pulled something out of his pocket. It was a purple seed that seemed to have an aura around it. He transferred some of his Spirit Energy into it and threw it a few feet away from the temple. Soon after, vines began to grow and cover Genkais temple. When it was all done he ran inside through the front door. When the others saw the vines they ran inside the house and quickly shut the door.
"The shield is a barrier that will last for a short amount of time. This will give us more time to plan out our next moves." Kurama said. "So, what should we do?" Keiko asked. "What about that portal thing you used before Koenma?" Botan asked as Koenmas face lit up. "That's it Botan you're a genius!" Koenma said as she smiled. "Thanks." Botan replied. "Hand me your communication mirror." Koenma said.
"Sure..it's..uh it's somewhere." Botan replied as she continued to search her pockets. "Oh no." Botan said as she frowned. "What is it." Hiei asked her. "It must've fallen out when we were outside. "Now what are we going to do?" Yukina asked. "I can go back out and look for it...I mean I remember where it was." Botan suggested. "We could distract the demons again. They're all in the front right?" Kurama asked as Kuwabara nodded.
"Well why don't you say if they can defeat you five, they get Botan?" Koenma replied. "That's a good idea." Yusuke said. "While we fight them Botan can look for it..just be careful." Hiei told her. "Let's go now then." Kuwabara said as they all nodded and walked back outside except for Botan. "Hey! We don't want you ningens and demon betrayers out here! All we want is that damn girl!" A demon shouted.
"Well if you would shut your mouths you'd be able to listen to the proposition we have." Genkai said as they all quieted down. "If you can defeat us Botan is all yours. Just walk right in and kidnap her." Yusuke replied as the demons looked around at eachother in amazement. "It's that easy?" A red one asked. "Yeah." Kuwabara answered. Well lets fight then." One said as they all rushed towards the others.
All except Ziryu went to fight he stayed behind and looked for anything suspisious. Botan walked through the back door and she crawled just in case any demon would look behind them. She saw something blue shine so she walked towards the object. "Got it!" She said aloud as she gave herself a mental pat on the back. "And I've got you." Ziryu said as she slowly looked up to see his cold gray eyes meet her magenta orbs.
"Oh no." She whispered quickly as she stood up. Then she remembered when Yusuke said she was good at fighting demons. She closed her eyes and her fist made contact with the demons stomach. "Quite a punch you've got their girlie.." The demon said as he fell backwards unconcious. She opened her eyes to see Hiei looking at her as if she'd impressed him. "Come on let's go." Hiei said as they ran through the back.
"Great you guys got it!" Koenma replied as Botan handed him the communication mirror. "George I need you to get Ikaji to make me another portal. One that starts at Genkais temple to spirit world." Koenma said. "Ok." George replied as they got disconnected. A few minutes later George called back. Get read the portals going to be outside any second. "Ok thanks bye." Koenma said as they got disconnected once more.
"Get ready to run out there." Yusuke said as they all nodded. They opened the door and sure enough the portal was there. Botan went first, then Keiko, Yukina, Koenma, Genkai, Kuwabara, Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiei. They were transported to Koenmas desk and they took Botan everywhere. In every room that Koenma knew of, and even in the bathrooms. "So do you remember anything?" Yukina asked as Botan looked down.
She closed her eyes for a second trying to remember anything but nothing came up. "N-no." She said as she felt tears come to her eyes. "Hey Botan don't cry...um I bet this amnesia thing takes a while to recover from." Kuwabara reassured her. "Yeah once you get information in your head you just have to wait a while for you to actually process it and then bam you'll remember." Yusuke said trying his best to sound like he knew what he was talking about.
"Maybe." Botan said skeptically. "Come on I'm sure of it. Let's go to the park." Keiko said as they walked. "Here's some good news. The demons left." Koenma replied. "I'm going to go home and clean up the mess those demons left." Genkai replied. "When you come back I'm sure you'll have your memory with you." Genkai said as she left. "I have a lot of papers to stamp. I'll see you later Botan." Koenma replied as he walked towards his office
"To the park we go." Yukina said as they led Botan to the park. They went to a small clearing surrounded by sakura trees. They waited a while until someone brok ethe slience. "So uh you remember anything now?" Kuwabara asked. "No." Botan said as she sat down on the bench and started to cry. Hiei sat down by her just before he was about to say something Botan spoke.
"I- I'm really sorry I couldn't remember anything guys...I know how dissappointed you must be now." Botan said. "No, don't be foolish. We aren't mad or dissappointed in you Botan." Keiko replied trying not to cry. "Yeah we just want you to be able to remember again." Yukina added. "But I don't think I'll ever remember again." Botan said as she continued to cry. Hiei not knowing what to do just stared in shock. 'What if she really doesn't remember again.' Hiei thought.
Keiko and Yukina sensed that Hiei was in a small state of shock so they tried to help Botan. Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara just looked away with sad faces as reality hit them smakc in the face. As Botan continued to cry memories of past missions went through her head. Her childhood, dying, missions, friends, and everything was brought back to her. She stopped crying and looked up with a confused look on her face.
"Botan!" Keiko said the fourth time as Botans attention was turned to her. "I-I remember!" Botan cried with hapiness as her face was bright once again. Hiei looked towards her and he sighed in relief. Just then he remembered where they were. This was the place that Hiei told Botan he loved her back. "I remember." She whispered as she hugged Hiei. He almost fell back when she did this because he wasn't expecting it but then regained his composure.
He hugged her back and everyones faces were relaxed as they smlied watching the site. Yusuke and Kuwabara wondered why she remembered at this very spot, but they both decided to save that ridiculing for tomorrow. They stood up and Botan spoke once more. "Guys I wanna thank you for helping me and taking me to all those places." Botan said as she smiled. "How could we not?" Yusuke asked.
"Thanks guys." Botan said as she tried to ignore the weak feeling she felt. "No problem, it was fun dragging you everywhere." Yusuke replied as he smiled. "Hey Botan, you feeling ok? You don't look to good." Kuwabara stated as tehy all watched her. "I- I feel really weak now..." Botan said as her breathing became more heavy and her eyes closed slowly. Before she fell Hiei caught her. "What the hell?" He asked as they all turned to Kurama.
"What you guys expect me to know these things? I don't know everything." Kurama replied. "Oh man what do we do?" Kuwabara asked. "Ok so maybe I do know thist but still I won't know everything. Botan has just regained her memory, this has put a great deal of stress on to her body, therefore she fainted." Kurama explained as everyone nodded. "So what do I do with her?" Hiei asked Kurama.
"Let her rest." Kurama replied. "We should go back to Genkais temple then. Bye guys." Yukina said as she waved goodbye. "Bye." They replied as Yukina, and Hiei with Botan in his arms walked away. They walked and walked until they finally reached Genkais temple. Genkai was out there waiting for them. "Is she ok." She asked. "Yeah just tired, she regained her memory." Hiei replied as they entered.
He rested Botan on her bed and then left the room. For the rest of the day everyone was basically in there rooms minding their own business. Botan woke up a few hours later. She got up and off the bed, and walked into Hiei's room. "Hey Hiei." Botan said as Hiei turned towards her. "Oh you're up." He replied as he got up from the bed. "Yeah...um thanks for comforting me last night...I know that it was probably hard for you." Botan said as she smlied.
"Your welcome." Hiei replied. "I wonder when we're going to go after Jurenju." Botan asked as she sat down on his bed. "I was thinking around tomorrow...I mean he's just going to keep on sending demon after demon. We might as well go to him now. We have the horn, so it should be easy." Hiei said in a cocky tone. "Did you tell the others?" Botan asked. "No but I'm sure they're thinking the same thing." Hiei replied.
"I'm starving I'm going to go get something to eat. Thanks again." Botan said as she kissed him and walked towards the door. Before she saw the picture that she saw last night. "Keeping good memories eh Hiei?" Botan joked as she picked up the picture. "I put it here so Yusuke wouldn't say anything." Hiei replied back. "Uh huh right Hiei." Botan said as she laughed. "I'm serious!" He yelled as she continued to laugh and ran out the door before he could say anything else.
Jurenju
"So....the fools think they're going to get me tomorrow?" He said as he looked through the crystal ball. "Well ... they'll be in a state of shock once they see what I have planned for them.." He replied as he waved his hand over the ball and it stopped showing images. "Matsu." He called as she entered. "Yes master?" She asked. "Those fools are planning on coming here tomorrow." Jurenju said.
"Really!?" She asked. "Yeah. I want you to get everything ready for their arrival. Remember what we talked about." Jurenjus replied as she bowed and left.
