Jin had been searching for a way to enter the Reikai that didn't involve killing himself. Eventually, he succeeded, though he was a long way from Koenma's palace. However, he closed the distance rather quickly, flying faster than he could remember ever having done. He was so distracted; he almost crashed into Botan, who flew out of the way moments before.

"JIN?!" Botan yelped, chasing after him. Both she and Koenma knew exactly what he'd done to Touya from the records, but they had refrained from telling the others since, apparently, Touya didn't want to share. They also knew that Jin wasn't fully aware of just all he'd done. They had been keeping tabs on him since Touya had stayed with Yusuke, deciding that it would be advantageous to be informed.

Jin stopped with a huff. "Botan! Thank God!" He flew back to her, then in stride, so to speak, as they both headed towards the castle.

"Why are you here, Jin?" Botan asked carefully.

"I gotta find Touya! I think 'e's stayin' with Urameshi, so I figur'd you guys would be able ta' tell me where ta' look!" He said, speaking in an even greater rush then normal. With the thick accent, the way he slurred some of his words, and the unusually heightened speed, Botan couldn't understand a word he said.

She frowned, "Again, slower please." She said.

Jin sighed. "Da' you lot know where Touya's at?" He asked, striving to be understood this time.

Botan paused a moment. "Why?"

Jin stopped in front of her and stared a moment. "I gotta apologize!" He said breathlessly.

Botan's eyes widened. She hated to ask this and make Jin have to go through it, but she needed to know how much Jin remembered. "Just what all did you do to him. Everything you remember."

Jin shifted uneasily. "I'm not sure a' e'rything. I got drunk. I dun' tend ta' r'member much the day aft'r. I know I beat 'im. And Reisho an' Bakken said I kissed 'im firs'," he said. "I dun' r'member anymor'."

Botan shook her head. "Well, we don't know where he's at."

Jin was devastated, but quickly countered, "Nu-uh, I see it in 'ur eyes, 'ur lyin'! Where is 'e damn'it!" Jin grabbed Botan's shoulders, his face maybe an inch from hers. Her face showed her fear clearly. ((LOL, Botan is thinking, if We were anime chars, my nose would be blue and I'd have a lil sweat drop and Jin would have those weird lil' pulsing nerve/blood vessel thingies on his head LOL))
