Chapter 3: O

Botan waited anxiously on her couch, all ready and packed up, Botan jumped at a loud screeching noise, followed by a few crashing sounds and ear piercing screams. She didn't need to hear anything else to know that it was Yusuke. She hopped off the couch and ran down the stairs. She greeted everyone with a wave and hopped in the back seat of the tiny, packed car with Kurama, Yukina and Kuwabara. She decided that she would keep the little incident from the night before be hers and Hiei's little secret, she didn't want her friends to worry.

The ride seemed like forever, since Yusuke drove like a drunk. (A/N: The YYH gang are around the age 16 in this, some younger some older, in this case Yusuke is old enough to drive.)

The beach was beautiful, the sky was the most beautiful color blue, same for the water, no skies, and it was a nice warm summer day. Botan lay a towel on the warm, yellow sand and decided to get a tan. Just as she closed her eyes. A shadow loomed over her. She popped one eye open, to see a confused Hiei glaring at her, *very* close to her face. She screamed and sat up, smashing BOTH of their head together, their eyes going wide as they fell down anime-style.

Botan sat up and rubbed her head, "GGRR....what's your problem? Don't you know its rude to stare at people?!"

Hiei sat up and glared at her, "I was only STARING at the ugly creature on your hand "

Botan's eyes went wide as she looked down to her hand to see.......a spider.

Botan gulped and shrieked, "AAAHHHH!!!! GETITOFF!!!! GETITOFF!!!! GETITOFF!!!! GETITOFF!!!!" Hiei looked at her plainly, as he took her hand in his and removed the spider from her hand. But little did they know that this spider had bitten Botan before Hiei disposed of it. Botan sighed and replied, "Phew, Thanks." Hiei just replied with a "hn" and brushed it off.

Yukina and Keiko called Botan over to them to play with the beach ball in the water. Botan nodded and ran over to them happily.

But Hiei couldn't help but think that something was wrong, so he started looking around for that spider. When he found it, he noticed a little aura around it. He picked it up carefully so it wouldn't bite him as he went to show "the kitsune" the spider.

He found Kurama, reading, as usual, and tapped him on the shoulder. Kurama lowered his sunglasses and looked at Hiei curiously, "Yes, what can I do for you Hiei?" Hiei opened his hand and showed Kurama the little spider, Kurama examined it and noticed it had an aura of spirit-energy. "Hiei......where did you find this?" Hiei sat down and said, "It was on the ferry onna's hand." Kurama's eyes widened as he asked, "Did it bite her?" Hiei thought and replied, "How should I know? It wasn't on my hand?" Kurama got up, and put the spider in a container which once held his lunch, and said, "Well, we should at least check Botan just to make sure."

"Why?" Hiei asked with a hint of concern in his voice. "That spider was no ordinary house spider Hiei. That spider was from Makai, I don't know how it got here but if there's one there has to be more. These spiders travel in the hundreds, this particular spider is called the Spider Charmer, they breed faster than any other known spider, and have the deadliest poison than any other spider in all three worlds. When it bites, it leaves a little sucking thing, almost like a straw, as it sucks the victims energy. It starts slow but then it takes energy in drastically, its symptoms are weakness, fatigue, dizziness and high fever. Its poison can kill a dog in less than thirty minutes, but I don't know how long it will take to kill a human, but we better make sure Botan is okay." "So your saying there are probably millions?" "Indeed, Hiei." Kurama turned around, in search for Botan as Hiei closely followed scouting the area for more of those spiders.
