Hi. It's me again. Okay I am so sorry. I meant to put this up last week, but I was so busy on this project. Put it up now, right? That's what matters, right? () Heheh…yeah…anyway. A lot of you think I have this Botan and Kurama thing. Well it's true I like them together. I also like Yusuke and Keiko. - Yusuke can be very sweet if he wants to. If he wants to not be a perv that is…I wasn't trying to have Botan and Kurama in this fic. Because it's not supported in the show and I want this fic to be as real to the show as possible. Bloody Mary is just a sicko, okay.

Oh, and some of you have been saying that you have heard of other versions of summoning her. I know, there are tons of versions, but this is the one that I'm most familiar with: You go into a locked room with a mirror in at midnight and chant her name three times. So that's the one I'm using and will be using in future chapters. In addition, I'm sorry if some of you had nightmares. But, hey, did I not say the point was to scare you, back in chapter one? Besides its not real. It's amazing what your imagination can do, huh? That would explain why no one that has 'seen' her has the same description. Oh, by the way, I sleep by a mirror door closet. So if anyone should be scared it's me. -()

Chapter Ten

You're not out of the water yet

A wicked laugh echoed in Kurama's ears. He stared at Botan's body, through her flesh, right towards the evil being that possessed her.

"So Kurama," she said, a wicked smile on her face. "How does it feel to know that the person who ends your life is a very dear friend of yours?

"You are not Botan!" The fox yelled at her, his voice shaky. Bloody Mary laughed slightly, causing Botan's face to show a wicked side that he had never seen before.

What am I going to do? I can't hurt Botan. He looked down at his hands. He clenched them together in frustration. Then something shiny caught his eye.

Kurama looked down at the source of the gleam, towards Botan's foot. Embedded in her shoe was a shining hook. Blood soaked the leather material around it. He's eyes traced the hook back to its origin, it looped around her foot and into the crystal like ground, where it seemed to vanish under the floor.

The hook made him wonder. "That's strange," he said under his breath. "Why is that there…? Unless…"

Bloody Mary heard him muttering to himself. "What's that you said?" she questioned putting her hand to her ear. "Were those your last words?" Sarcasm rung in her voice, but it swiftly changed to cold and menacing the next time she opened her mouth to speak. "If so, they better have been good."

She held up her hand and, in answer to the motion, a silver hook with a long chain connected to it appeared. She grabbed the end of the chain with her other hand and began swinging the hook over her head like a lasso. "Now where should I strike first?" she asked herself. "Should I end this fast or make you suffer?"

She laughed. "I think…" she began. "I'll let you suffer!" She swung the chained hook back and then shot it towards Kurama.

Kurama didn't move, nor react at all, for that matter. He stood perfectly still and let the attack come to him. The weapon sliced across Kurama's cheek.

For a moment he stood there motionless. But then a wide grin appeared on his face. As the hook swung back into Bloody Mary's hands a soft chuckle escaped his lips.

Bloody Mary scared at him, wide-eyed. "W-why are you laughing?! Has the thought of dying made you mad?!"

Kurama continued to laugh. "So that's how you're controlling Botan," he said coldly.

"What?! What are you talking about?!"

"The source of your mind control." He lifted his hand up to his hair and pulled a red rose out. Soon it transformed into a long, spiky, green whip which fell to the floor around him. It slivered forward, nearing his enemy.

Bloody Mary stared at him, intimidating. So he knows now. No matter. He won't live much longer.

"And," Kurama continued. "the source is…" He raised his head up, staring into her eyes, wickedly. "…that hook embedded in Botan's ankle!" His whip shot from the ground where it lay straight at Bloody Mary's foot.

She jumped out of the way, the whip barely missing the hook in her foot. The rose whip continued forward, but then swung backwards, right at the unsuspecting girl. It coiled around her, immobilizing her. She crashed to the floor with a thud.

"I never said I was aiming at your leg," Kurama commented walking over to her.

Bloody Mary began to laugh, a wicked laugh. "You think this will end it?" she said lifting her head up to look at Kurama, who was now crouching above her leg, ready to pull out the hook. "She was merely a puppet." A wide grin appeared on her face. "I'll be back."

Kurama placed his grip on the hook and yanked it out of her leg. Blood gushed out of the wound as the hook dissolved away in Kurama's hand into the red liquid known as blood.

Bloody Mary's cry filled the air. "Aaaaarrrggghhh!!! I'll be back! I'll be back!! You and all your friends will feel my wrath. You'll all pay for what you did to me before! You'll pay!!" As the last syllable came out of her lips Botan's body became limp, felling to the ground, unconscious.

Did we do something to her in the past? But before Kurama could put anymore thought into the matter the crystal world around him vanished and water busted from out of no where around him and Botan.

Before he knew it he was surrounded by a ocean of a clear liquid. Kurama opened his mouth to breath but only managed to swallow a mouthful of water. He had to get out of the water fast or he'd drown. He began to swim upward, towards the surface. As he swam he realized something: Botan must be here too! But where? He looked around in the underwater world. Then he saw her, facing downwards, and floating down towards the bottomless sandy floor.

Kurama swiftly swam over to her, grabbed her around the waist, and pulled her upwards. He kicked his legs faster, trying to get to the surface before his oxygen supple ran out.

The surface came nearer and nearer. Until it was almost in reach. With one last kick he and Botan rose above the water's surface. Kurama gasped for air.

When he's breathing returned to normal he looked around, while making sure to keep Botan's head above the water. He say ice surrounding him on all sides, but above him he heard shaving sounds of blades cutting into the ice and the frightened whispers of people. He looked up to see a crowd staring down at him. Some people gave grateful sighs of relief and joyful shouts of "They're alive!"

Then remembering Botan, he quickly got out of the pool of water he was in and onto the ice, pulling Botan up with him.

As she lay motionless on the ice Kurama put his hand a few centimeters in front of her mouth, but no gentle breeze from her mouth met it. She wasn't breathing!

Kurama quickly put his hands on her chest and pushed down. Botan's body lounged upwards, but that was all, she didn't begin to breathe again. He pushed again. This time when her body lounged upwards so did a mouthful of water. She hastily coughed it up, gagging. When she was done she opened her eyes.

She stared up at Kurama and the surrounding crowd. Her vision was at first blurry but it slowly came back into focus.

"Kurama…" she said quietly. "Where…are…we? What…happened?"

A warm smile appeared across Kurama's face. "Welcome back, Botan." he said softly.

"Get away from me, Yusuke!" a brunette young woman yelled as she slapped at the face of a young man with a Japanese gangster hair-do.

They were standing in front of a bed in the middle of a small studio apartment. Only one light in the house was on and the only other light that shown through was that of the moon, shining through the blind less closed window.

"Aw, Keiko, what'd I do?" asked the man named Yusuke.

"You got drunk again, Yusuke! You think I can't smell it on your breathe!" yelled Keiko.

"Man…" Yusuke muttered under his breathe. "I knew I should have taken more Tic-Tacs…"

"What did you say?!"

Yusuke paused a moment. Then said. "I said if you always get mad like this how's our relationship going to stay intact."

That was close. But smooth come back. Yusuke praised himself.

"Yusuke if you don't stop doing this there may not be a relationship anymore."

"Keiko don't say that." He moved closer to her and hugged her. "Look, I'm sorry."

Keiko let Yusuke cling to her a moment but then pushed him away. "If you're going to get all sweet with me," she said. " Then please do me a favor and brush your teeth first. And use some mouth wash too."

Yusuke stared at her a moment, disbelieving. He was just about to open his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by the door suddenly swinging open.

"Sorry if we're interrupting anything," said a soft voice from the entry way. Yusuke and Keiko turned to the source of the voice. As the light of the moon and light bulb hanging from the wall fell upon the voice, they slowly revealed two figures. One that belonged to a red headed man and next to him a blue haired female.

"K-Kurama?" Yusuke asked shocked. "What are you doing here?"
