Alright, I will explain a lot more in this chapter so prepare for a long lecture by none other than The Explanation King himself, Kurama! Enjoy!

Chapter: I stopped counting

Botan's stomach twisted and turned with each step she took up the stairs to Kurama's room. She hoped it wasn't anything bad.

Kurama sighed as he started his explanation. (Kurama knows everything, ne?)

"Botan, while you were unconscious, we brought you to Makai. I already explained to you about how we needed the koibiashmaru herb to cure you, well it was located in Makai. While we were in Makai, Yukina became weak and wasn't able to heal you anymore, that's when we lost you. After you died, Hiei had Shizuru see if you had some life still in you, which you did. Hiei, used nearly all his spirit energy to revive you. Since you are a Ferry girl, one step removed from an angel, and Hiei being a demon, and he being stronger than you.......well, it is most likely that you have more demon energy in you than......angelic. Either you will become a demon, or you may be too weak to sustain the demonic energy inside you, so you may just have no spirit energy at all and become human or............you..."

Kurama sighed, he had to tell her the only way to get rid of her terrible burden. "The only way..........to release the demonic energy inside you is........to......transfer the energy back to Hiei."

Throughout the explanation, Botan thought she would rather die than be a demon, but once she thought she could get rid of it she smiled a weak smile and said, "Well how do I transfer it? Do I heal him or something?"

Kurama blushed and said, "It's not that simple. You have to give the energy back in a different form to Hiei."

"Do I have to transfer it to someone else?"

Kurama replied, "Sort of. You have to.......a kind if.........ritual, and after it......there's a life force that grows until.....it's ready to live and THEN it's in a different form."

"Please explain simpler Kurama" Botan stated out of confusion.

"Alright, I'm just gonna say this straight out Botan, and please don't hurt me. Hiei and you must have sex, after that you WILL get pregnant, wait about nine months and there it is- Hiei's energy. You see Botan, when a demon transfers it's energy to a female demon, the male demon is giving his legacy to that female, so that if he should die, sooner than expected , than he would have an heir and so than the child would avenge his/her fathers death. But since you WERE not demon before Hiei gave you his energy, Hiei thought he could get off easy and that nothing, other than you coming back to life, would happen. Well now it's just harder, now, for a demon it takes a great amount of energy for a demon to make herself pregnant, and the male saves this amount of energy all his life when he kills, eats, and sleeps. So if a male demon were to die, the female demon, would store than energy her mate gave her until he did die, so she could trigger the energy and become pregnant herself without having sex. Hiei gave you that energy, so that he would not die giving you his energy. And since you are in the process of becoming a demon, you are still not strong enough to trigger that energy, you need more of Hiei's energy to make the baby. When demon's have sex, when the sperm is released into the male demon's mate, a great amount of energy is also released to bring the demon baby to life. You NEED that energy to bring that baby into this world. Understand?"

Botan stared at Kurama, and at how much he could say with two minutes. She couldn't speak, due to the shock of all this, but finally spoke up, "Why do I HAVE to have this baby?!"

Kurama looked down and said, "If you don't....... you and Hiei would most likely die, since this demonic energy is now yours too. It would be a slow and painful death too." Botan stared into Kurama's eyes, he wasn't kidding. She saw something in the corner of her eye, and as she looked to the door, she saw Hiei's frightened crimson eyes as well.

Botan felt a wave of dizziness as she fell off the chair, and everything went black.
