I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho, Heck we cut cabel, so I can't even watch it anymore. That's part of why this chapter took so long to get up. the other part is writers block

The couple returned to campwhere the others were just waking up.

"Where were you two?" The speaker was Kurama of course, the younger boys were still trying to sleep.

"Around." Botan replied, I couldn't sleep so I went for a walk and you how Hiei is. Never stays around." She kicked Yusuke and he scrambled out of his bedroll.

Why'd you kick me?"

"It got you out of bed"

He sent her a death glare.

"Meow"

Hiei was still brooding over the events of the night. I don't want to get close to anyone, he thought,it would hurt both of us. I saw what happened to Paulita and the ruin of her garden. I reaaly don't want to hurt Botan that way. Whne Nimshaygo showed up, he really was going to kill her.

Even when Hiei was thinking of those depressing things he couldn't help noticing how pretty the ferrygirl was as she kicked Kuwabara awake.

The rekai tantai ate a quick breakfast while discussing the plans for the day. Everyone agreed that they should go after the artifact. Indeed Kurama had to keep Yusuke from rushing ahead and going after the thief.

"We, have to be careful of the wishes it grants, remember?"

The detective sat down with a sheepish grin,. "oh yeah."

Krama was calm as he went on, it would grant wishes that you don't even know you wished. The pendant cannot be safely handled"

Kuwabara spoke, "I don't understand how we are to get the thing if we cant even touch it."

"You don't understand anything." Hiei quipped, while thinking that the redhead was right. The couldn't do their job if they couldn't touch the item to retrieve.

"Well at least I am not like you."

That last one hurt. It was true. Hiei looked away and his eyes landed on Botan, she was fiddling with her hair ribbon again. How many times had Jenna heards the same insult, Lily had been the only one who didn't tell her how glad she was not to be like her.

Your sister is happy now, you said that yourself>

Botan nodded but, "I'd wish her back and probably land her where she couldn't mangage" she whispered.

"We stiil need to find it."

They joined the others and proceeded to search the demons for the pendant.

A menacing voice stoped that Tantai in their tracks, Looking for this? Nimshaygo asked.
