Thank you all for the support you give me. You all made me feel so much better!! My thanks to DameNight, Sherkoni, Hieilover28 , Amanda/Artiste, HieilovesBotan, maslerne, and Chrisoriented Sorry for the short chapters, I'll try to make them longer. I can't really go into the whole training thing so I'll just right about the last lesson. And Botan's hair isn't going to be that short, it'll be like about a little above her chin, just to let you know.
After these long three weeks, Botan finally made it to her last lesson. As she fell asleep, she was starting to hear Genkai's voice, sending her into a trance, where they could be in their own little world. Botan looked around in hers and Genkai's 'dream world'. The setting was a baron field, Botan searched for Genkai, her combat robes swaying in the wind. When she finally spotted Genkai, Botan smiled and waved to her only to be greeted with a punch in the gut. Botan understood what Genkai was implying as she attacked Genkai back.
Botan dodged a powerful spirit gun, as she put her hands together for her attack. A beam of pink light shone between her hands as the light began to take the shape of wings and moved from her hands to her back. The 'spirit wings' attached themselves to Botan, turning into actual white wings with long flowing feathers. She flapped her wings, as two tornadoes erupted from the gust of wind her wings made as they surrounded Genkai, rendering her helpless.
One of the tornadoes, appeared behind Genkai. It neared her, but Genkai noticed too late, as she was engulfed in the might wind, she knew, she trained Botan well. Genkai was shot out from the top of Botan's tornado, her clothes tattered and torn. Botan ran to the injured Genkai, her wings disappearing as she ran, leaving a single feather to sway to the ground.
Botan knelt beside Genkai, helping her up, Genkai let out a little laugh as she said, "If I had put my heart into this fight I'm sure I would have won." Botan smiled as Genkai continued, "But, I'm dead now, and I have no need to be number one anymore. Now, I should have given this to dimwit, but, it seems that he did fine without it, but....here." Genkai said as she opened her hand to reveal, a spirit energy orb, floating in her hands.
It shined and sparkled all the colors of the rainbow as she put it in Botan hands as it floated up, making her face glow. "Now..." Genkai began, "this is a spirit orb, it is my energy, that I have been saving for a very long time. I was going to give it to dimwit, but I didn't think he would need it, especially when I was giving him the ability to do the spirit wave. This will be very painful, but it will be worth the pain I assure you of that. Are you willing to do this?" Genkai asked, Botan looked skeptical, but them nodded. Genkai took Botan's hands in hers with the glowing orb in it, positioning her hands on her chest. "Concentrate your energy into the spirit orb, as you do so, slowly push the orb into your chest."
Botan took a quivering breath, closed her eyes, and began to move the orb into her chest. Botan felt nauseous as her body began to feel like jelly as she inserted the orb. As if on cue, right when it entered her body, Botan gave a long, and shrilling cry. She clutched her chest and toppled over tossing, turning screaming, pulling her hair, crying for Genkai to take the orb out. "Please Genkai!!! AAHHHHAAA!!!! PLEA-AAAHHH!!! IT HURTS!!! PLEASE!!! AAAAAHHH!!!" Botan screamed. But all Genkai could do for her was to stay there for her, and let her
After fifteen minutes, Botan's screams had subsided but turned into heaves and long heavy gasps for air. Genkai put a hand on Botan's head, as she pulled Botan's head onto her lap for a pillow as Botan sobbed quietly. She rubbed Botan's back, which seemed to calm her, when she thought she was ready, Genkai began to talk to her, "If you can hear me Botan squeeze my hand." She slipped her hand into Botan's, as she felt a weak squeeze. Now that she knew that Botan could hear her, she told her about her new abilities.
After she explained them all to her, she began a more touching speech. "You know Botan, during these few weeks of training, I've began to become to feel like a mother to you, seeing as a never had to have children of my own, my heart has selected you and dimwit, of all people for me to feel this way about. Consider you and Yusuke very lucky, it's not every day the mighty Genkai loves any individual so much you know." Genkai smiled, as she saw a smile creep on, what looked like a slumbering Botan. Genkai began to stroke Botan's hair in a motherly manner, as Botan drifted into a deep slumber. The dream world was beginning to disappear, as was herself. Genkai noticed this, and quickly lifted Botan's bangs and planted a kiss on her forehead before she turned to nothingness. (Motherly kiss, how sweet)
Botan saw all this, not with her eyes, but with her mind, as she jolted up. No longer was she in the baron battle field, but was in the safety of her room in Genkai's old temple. She clutched her chest and breathed heavily, there was still a little stinging feeling, but it wasn't as bad as it was before. Botan smiled as she barely remembered the heart to heart talk Genkai had with her as she was slowly slipping into unconsciousness, and then the kiss. Botan's smile got bigger as she remembered how she always thought of Genkai as a mother.
Botan's trail of thoughts was vanished by the sound of little footsteps running down the hall, and towards her room. Her head perked up as Yukina hurriedly slid Botan's door open and sighed as she saw Botan was alright. "Another rough night of training?" She asked as she sat next to her. Botan nodded and said, "Yeah, my screaming wake you up again?" Yukina nodded and said, "Well this was your last night, so you know what tomorrow is!" Botan smiled and replied, "Yea my interview for the new Reikai tantei is tomorrow." Yukina smiled and said, "That's right so you need your rest Botan-Chan, good-night." Botan said her goodnight to Yukina as she left the room, leaving Botan to worry more about the next day.
Sorry for the short chapter, I'll update often. I love you guys!
Hugs and kisses,
Mitsu
