ARGH!!!!!!!! I AM SO SORRY!!! It has been over 2 weeks since I last updated!!! I APOLOGIZE!!!!!!!! I was very busy!! Please don't kill me!! In the last chapter I didn't mean to say anything bad about anyone!!! I was just lazy and didn't know how to put Keiko in the story!! Anyhoo, I hope you like this chapter, I just thought of it at school two days ago and decided to put it in.

This FF might be on hold for a while as I make another story or two!! I will update once in a while though!! Just a little slower! Gomen!! Gomenasai!!! SORRY!! But I just can't think correctly on this story anymore =_=...

Don't kill me if some of the characters are OOC please ^_^ I probably won't even notice that they are out of character =^o^=

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho unfortunately =_= I do own a few characters though!! Like HIEI!! (J/K I just wished this) I own, Maiyu and Youkoto!!

**last time** "Ah, I see that you have all FINALLY come." The teenage version of Koenma said staring at the five. "This mission is...." Koenma then paused and looked at Botan and then to the rest of the team one by one 2 minutes passed. "GET ON WITH IT ALREADY!!" Yelled the impatient Yusuke. Koenma just frowned and started to tell them about their new mission.**

*_*_*_*_*WHAT'S THE MISSION?*_*_*_*_*

Koenma's office use to be nothing of a real surprise, it was actually pretty dull and plain. (Don't know/ can't really remember what it looks like... so I'll just say that he remodeled it ^_^)Now, it had drawings of dragons and such all over the room, posters of wanted Demons were also hanging from one side of the wall. Near the desk was piles and piles of paper work. On the desk was a mug, pens, some paper work, a stamp and a video tape.

Four spirit detectives stared at one prince that had a pacifier in his mouth and the Jr. mark on his forehead and one ferry girl staring at the four and then to the prince back and forth curiously. The prince was staring at them saying utterly nothing. The orange top just started to pace back and forth and waiting. The red head was very patient and the black slick haired one was pissed off. The short black-defying-gravity haired one was emotionless.

....................................... .............................................

"..." Koenma said nothing and turned around he stared at his desk. Hiei getting very impatient glared at the prince's back. It was all Koenma's fault for the "incident" with Botan and now he the toddler wouldn't even tell them what the so called important mission was?! "Hn, would you stop stalling and tell us the mission already?! Or shall I look into your mind with my Jagan and tell them everything myself?" Hiei smirked as he saw the prince look uncomfortable.

(Ok, this is sort of like Hiei's point of view in this sentence)Then the stupid big mouth had to open his stupid big mouth and say, "Sheesh shorty!! Do you always have to have it your way? Can't you wait a few stupid seconds? Maybe the toddler can't remember or something!!" Kuwabara was glaring at Hiei and then stuck out his tongue. This irritated him even more, "What the?! Baka, can you make any sense for once? How could he forget something so 'important?!' If it wasn't important he wouldn't have made us come here that quickly!!"

Kuwabara seemed to be in deep thinking when he suddenly said, "Maybe he can't really say it? Maybe...." Kazuma was cut off as Yukina walked in. Kuwabara was staring at her and then ran to her and did many lovey-dovey things that Yukina just seemed to brush off. She walked to Koenma and said, "King Yama wants you to go to his room!"

Koenma's eyes widened, 'Father is back? I thought he was on vacation!!! Why is Yukina here anyways? Oh well~! I hope father isn't angry or anything.' Koenma then looked at the Spirit Detectives and said, "Honestly, I don't really know of the mission myself, I just got a letter and Father... err.. I mean King Yama said that he needed us to do a very important mission."

The Spirit Detectives just stared/glared at Koenma hardly believing what they were hearing, why did they have to go through so much for something the prince didn't even know himself?!?! They just followed Koenma as he walked out of the door without another word.

"I honestly don't know what's going on. But, if King Yama wanted us to do a mission I would take it very seriously sense he hardly ever gave us any missions." Koenma said as he felt the gazes of the team on him. They walked past a lot of doors and ogers holding stacks of papers.

They saw paintings on the walls, most of them were of King Yama and Koenma but quite a few of them had a beautiful lady-demon on them. She had light blue hair with dark silvery blue highlights. She was holding a bundle in her arms. She looked really beautiful and kind. Around, in the back ground, was ice and such, just seeing it you could already tell she was some type of ice apparition.

There were also a few pictures of Botan on her oar or in a fancy kimono with her hair in many different hair styles. If you looked closely you would see a little ice in the background. Some pictures even had Yusuke or one of the others in it. Then followed by many BEAUTIFUL pictures of wanted demons. There was one on Youko Kurama. Which made everyone except Kuwabara and Koenma smirk. (Why did they smirk? Don't ask me, they probably just thought that it would be off BY NOW!)

They finally got to King Yama's office. The doors were golden and had some design on it. (Think royally, Reikai.... What more do you want? You can imagine for yourself ^_^) Before Koenma or the others could knock, King Yama said, "The door is open!" Koenma looked at Kurama and then back at the door and then opened it.

King Yama was now staring at them. "Come in, I shall tell you about this mission!" Yama boomed very loudly that didn't even seem like anything to him. "Botan, she is here with you correct??" asked Yama.

Koenma looked at him and said, "No, I sent her out to ferry the newly- deads." "FOOL!!! How could you do that?" Yama's voice boomed through the walls as he said is statement. Koenma stared at his father in shock, "I didn't have any other ferry girls to do the job for me. Why do you care if she went or not fa... King Yama?"

Yama stared at them, helplessly sighed saying, "Botan has powers that are unknown to even herself. She is the reincarnation, no she IS Maiyu!! The legendary ice apparition. The one who seemingly destroyed Youkoto and the founder of the rulers in Makai."

The Spirit Gang and Koenma were very shocked. Their Botan? Maiyu? The founder of the rulers in Makai?? Koenma suddenly stepped forward and asked, "King Yama, what do you mean? Surely you don't mean that OUR Botan is Maiyu? She was said to have died many years ago."

King Yama looked at his son and frowned, "Don't you remember what happened when you found her? She had no memory! Also, she was different, her eyes were a deeper purple, more wise and such. That was Maiyu!!" King Yama remembered clearly what happened and saw in his son's eyes that he too now remembered.

Koenma was in his teenage form walking around Ningenkai as it was raining when suddenly he heard soft crying. He went to investigate and found a young women holding a small child in her arms. She cried and looked up at Koenma. She was wear a tattered outfit and her blue hair hung to her sides and back soaking from the rain. She was shielding the small child and was on the ground on her knees.

Koenma just looked at her. The girl was obviously confused and frightened. She had many scratches and bruises all over her. She glared when she saw Koenma near her and the child. She whispered something to Hiei and he started to float in the air.

The women folded her hands together and used the last of her energy to protect the child and transport him somewhere safe. She smiled as Hiei slowly disappeared, "Surely we will meet again, live well dear child." The women then fainted as Koenma went up to her to help her in any way possible.

*~*~*___Five Hours Later___*~*~*

The women had started to stir and the first thing that came to her mind was, 'Who am I?' 'Where am I?' 'Who???' Suddenly she tried to get up only to fall back down on the bed with a dizzy spell. She held her head and noticed that her wounds were healed and didn't leave a mark. She had lost her memory ever since Koenma saw her.

Koenma suddenly came in and asked, "How are you? Do you remember your name?" The women shook her head saying 'no' and Koenma sighed. "I guess we will have to give you a new name.... ummm..... how about, Botan?" She smiled and repeated, "Botan...*giggles* and what is your name sir?" Koenma smiled at this and asked/said, "My name is Koenma also, will you become a ferry girl?"

Botan blinked, "Ferry girl? Huh?" "Your body couldn't handle all of the power so, you are defiantly dead, but you have a solid body that only people/youkai with high spiritual energy can see you OH~! The dead can can too! So what have you got to lose? Will you become my assistant and ferry girl?" Koenma asked politely as he advanced her.

Botan smiled slightly and nodded, "Alright! I shall~! Thank you Koenma sir~!" Koenma nodded and explained everything from how to ride an oar, how to ferry dead souls and missions in finding people with high rank of spirit energy. After that, 'Botan' was officially a ferry girl.

~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_End Flash Back_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Koenma looked up at his father and sighed. He didn't realize it back then at all. When she became a ferry girl her appearance and personality changed a lot and was almost the opposite of Maiyu and Koenma didn't think she would be HER! He forgot about her power. He thought she was just one of few with very high spiritual energy.
