I'm finally retyping this over again… Anyway, there are lots of things happening in here and junk like…kidnappings, betraying, getting married, fighting, and stuff like that. Hope you enjoy it though. This story is sort of like a YYH 2. Well, this will take me a while to write. But…it's worth it if you review… Review please! LOL
Hiei's Prologue: After Hiei returned from Makai and Mukuro training or whatever, they've been known as lovers and heir. Now, about 2 year later he came back to Ningenkai to see the Spirit Detective and the kitsune. The kroomie had told Mukuro that he'd be back in a few months after his visit to the Ningenkai but that didn't turn out so.
Kurama's Prologue: Kurama on the other hand works at his stepfathers company and all (He didn't go to collage) was quite glad that the fire demon had time to drop by to see them. He had no lover yet though but was seeing some one…(lets just say that he hasn't told her yet)
Kuwabara's Prologue: Kuwabara, he's a different story, he went to collage and all. (Yeah, by force from Shizuru) It's summer of course so he is off from collage now. Still, he has a little crush on Yukina.
Yusuke & Keiko's Prologue: Yusuke is now engaged with Keiko and owns a restaurant that they both work in. He's been thinking through the "marriage" thing over and over repeatedly. Atsuko married a guy who owns a shipping industry. (Well, I think Atsuko was a widow before)
(Prologue) The packing: Okay, lets just say the boys are on vacation after doing some stupid mission from Koenma. It'll be their first trip to Kyoto and of course, it's Yusuke's idea. Hiei, who would probably argue if they go and have fun, actually agreed to go. And it's a whole day of packing and junk. (Did I mention that the boys are all about…2 years older?) Kurama brings clothes, (of course, he's practically the only one that changes clothes more than the others.) hairbrush, and stuff…(make it up yourself…) Hiei brings mousse (And a lot of it for his hair to stand tall. His hair makes him look taller.), his katana, and his precious tear gem. (Why would he pack a lot anyway?) Yusuke and Kuwabara? Well, they bring…a lot of clothing, and about everything that they own…
And Kurama's the only one who knows how to drive and got his license about 2 months ago and his new red convertible few weeks ago. So anyway, instead of talking about what they packed lets get back to the story. Okay, the goal is to get to Kyoto before nightfall and rent an inn. Lets just say they're there already. Oh, I forgot…Keiko and Botan are coming… (They pack what all girls usually packs)
"Well, it's not my fault that Kuwabara got us an inn with no bathroom! But look on the bright side, we have a hot spring, pool, 6 beds, morning breakfast, tennis court, laundry facilities, sauna, mini restaurant …and…massage booth!" Yusuke laughs nervously.
"It's not my fault, Shizuru rent it for us!" The orange-headed boy growls with a shrug. "But you know there's a restroom down the street."
"That's okay, as long as there is some place where we can use the restroom I'm good," Keiko replies calmly.
"We should get our stuff packed out and hit the springs. I guess Botan and Keiko should split since there are only 3 beds in each room. I'll stay in Yusuke and Kazuma's room," the brown haired girl smiles at Botan. The pilot of the river Styx nods.
"I really hope the both of you don't snore," Botan giggles as she goes in the room followed by Kurama and Hiei. The room was dark and quite big, a window stayed between the bunk bed and the single bed. It had white wall surrounding them and a little draw sat under the glass window. The blankets and pillows were all the same dark blue color with a mini radio by the end of the room along with a mini television.
"I don't think neither of us do," Kurama answers for Hiei as they enter viewing at the beds.
"You know, we should really throw a party tonight! It'll be great and Keiko and I brought some music with us," the blue haired girl smiles as she threw her luggage under her single bed. "I hope you guys don't mind taking the bunk."
"I have business tonight," Hiei folds his arms and leans on by the window.
"So you won't be joining us tonight?" Botan asks. "That's too bad cause we're gonna have a blast! Well, Kurama, could you get the neighbors to come too later?"
"Guys! Are you ready to jump in the springs?" Urameshi hops in the room wearing a white towel around himself. Every one stares at the detective.
"Is that anyway to enter a room, Yusuke. None the less, without knocking first? Botan could have been changing you know," Kurama talks to him with a tranquil manner.
"If she were changing why would you guys be in here?" Yusuke points out sarcastically. Hiei and Kurama's faces bloomed in pink.
"Hehehe…I should go get Keiko and we'll head over to the salon," Botan giggles as she picks out a towel and bathing suit then walks out the room.
Later in the springs…
"Half-pint, aren't you gonna join us? You can't just sit there all night, you're beginning to reek," Kazuma jests. Hiei crossed his legs and arms then replied with a "Hn." "What? Are you afraid of a little water?"
"No, it's simply just that I would never go in the same spring with you fools. It's hardly hygienic. Who knows what disease you humans carry around," the spiky haired boy grunts.
"Chicken! Cluck! Cluck! Cluck!" Kuwabara flaps his arms around in the water splashing it on everyone. "The fearless Shrimp is afraid of the water!"
"Don't tease the kroomie anymore, Kuwabara," the boy with red locks chortles a little. "Won't you join us Hiei?" Hiei starts to give a dirty look to them.
"Come on, Short-stuff!" Kuwabara leaps out of the water and grabs the kroomie by his ankle and pulls him in. Then Kazuma stuffs Hiei's head under the water. The boy struggles to stay above of the water but fails to do so and comes out of the water choking.
"You BAKA!" Hiei yells climbing out of the spring still coughing continuously. "Where to about to do a homicide!" The ruby-eyed delinquent asked in an unbearable tone. He walks out of the room wearing his soaked baby blue shirt and long soggy black pants.
"I think you were a little hard on Hiei, Kuwabara. He's a being like us too," Kurama says softly as the door slam closed beside them.
"Well, he had it coming," Kuwabara pouts with his lips curved out. Yusuke stayed quiet through the whole thing. Kurama stands up and wraps himself around a long red bathrobe.
"Well, Botan said we were gonna have a party tonight so I'm going to ask the neighbors if they'd like to join. Be ready in the living room later," Kurama tells them while squeezing some remaining water from his silky red hair.
A little while later, Kurama entered his room all dressed up in normal clothes with his hair tied behind him in a ponytail. He looked around and didn't see Hiei there, probably already out on his business he tells himself. Then the boy goes off to the living room where he saw Botan and Keiko working the stereo and Cherokee. Botan was wearing something suitable for her fashion and Keiko in a bright orange kimono with flowers embroidered on it.
"Hi Kurama," Botan expressing a cheerful acceptance. Her voice so soothing and gleeful with her hair flipping around in one braid. The emerald eyed boy stared a moment and then slapped himself out of it.
"Hey, I've already asked the neighbors but I guess they refused. It seems that they were busy with a movie, so the claim. But I did get some other guests to join," Kurama grins.
Kurama's notion:
I sensed something in one of the room there… There was demon blood in the room, but all I saw was a man in a red baggy shirt with black hair and a girl who seemed human for all I could see. Something's weird about the guy though. He didn't seem human, nor did he seem demon. Oh well, it doesn't appear like they are any danger.
And when I was walking back to my room I felt as if some one or something was behind me, it smelled like dogs. Watching my every step, I sensed demon presence. But it faded a while later; there's no need to get everyone worked up about it. If something serious were to happen I'd better notify the guys.
"I got it!" Few gleams of colorful lights shot out from all directions. "One…Two…Three…Testing!" Botan calls form the microphone. "I think it's working now."
"Yusuke Urameshi here to crash the party!" The boy with slick black hair combed back came in along with Kazuma who began to boogie. (http:utenti.lycos.it/magikmanga/yuyuhakusho/kuwabara5.jpg)
"Bring on the hot babes!" Kuwabara jumps in the scene and starts doing some of Elvis's moves. Still in his Little Rock and roll moment, Botan rolls up some newspaper and slams it on Kuwabara's head.
"Come out of that little brain of yours Kuwabara. There will be girls tonight but don't think that any of them would want to be with you if you keep acting up like that. Have some self respect," the magenta eye colored girl comments.
"Hey guys," three girls enter the living room. Kuwabara's mouth falls over his chin and his eyes pops out. "The names Yumi, my little sister Yui, and my older sister Yue."
"Hi! My name is Kazuma… Kuwabara, Kazuma," the baka runs over to Yumi half-drooling. "Nice to meet you! I'm free any time any place so call me, this is my number…" He instantly gets a paper and pencil then writes down his number.
"Don't get too worked up Kuwabara," Botan laughs. "I'm Botan, this is Keiko, Yusuke, and Kurama. Another friend of ours isn't here tonight though."
After the little introduction and the girls got to meet the others, Keiko cranked up the music and turned the lights down a little. Yusuke starts to dance with Keiko while Kuwabara starts dancing with the three girls. Kurama sat comfortably on the sofa watching Yusuke and Kuwabara twirling around on the dance floor. Botan endured laughing at the boys while she sang some of the songs she learned.
As it grew darker, the moon shone its brightest and Botan began getting weary and sat down next to Kurama who did practically nothing but stare at them dancing and her singing.
"So did you enjoy the songs?" Botan asks smiling a bit. Her purple skirt and shirt glitter under the lights and her smile kept lightening on.
"Yes, you have quite a majestic voice," Kurama chortles.
"Thanks, my voice is getting quite shaky, I think I'll be up for some water," the blue haired grim stands up and combs back some of her hair with her hand.
"While you're at it, would you interest in a little snack downstairs?" The innocent ningen boy asks also standing up with her.
"Yeah, sure, why not," was the reply from her. She runs to the door and opens it. Kurama follows her and also goes down stairs with her on the elevator.
"Where do you think those two are going?" Kuwabara asks as he starts to dance with Yue now.
"Who knows, Kurama's had a crush on Botan for a while now. About two years I guess he's been a little too timid to tell her it. I think it's quite obvious though, he's been too nice too her," Yusuke answers. "But then again, he's always been too nice to everybody, even his foes."
"So you think he's gonna tell her?" Kazuma asked as he began to do 'The Point.' Keiko goes up to the Cherokee and tunes something up from the radio; it's a slow song this time. The brown haired girl goes over to Yusuke and clung to him as the danced.
"Yusuke, if it were so obvious that Kurama likes Botan, then why doesn't she know and why didn't I know? Are you sure you're talking about the same Kurama I am? It doesn't seem natural that Kurama would be interested in a girl," Keiko asks. Yusuke shrugs carelessly.
"Which one of you lucky babes wanna dance with me?!" Kazuma asks the three blondes. All three sat down on the sofa. "Oh come on! I thought you guys like my dancing."
"Yeah, we do. It's just that it doesn't involve you touching any of us," Yui replies laughing at him. Kuwabara sighs and starts to sit down with them and chats.
The two were eating some sushi and mixed rice for their snack. The glass windows around them were shaped like the moon and a single rose lay on every table, which was always covered with a piece of white cloth. Botan was eating pretty fast with her chopsticks and Kurama ate a bit slower.
"Botan, can I tell you something?" Kurama finishes with his snack and wipes his mouth. His voice half-trembling and his heart skipping every other beat.
"What's wrong? Your voice is quivering," Botan asks while she takes a sip of water and wipes her mouth. "What is it you want to tell me, Kurama?"
"Would it be okay if I told you…" he stops. "It's hard to explain."
"It's okay, take your time," Botan smiles quite interested in what he was going to say. She remained quiet as Kurama spoke in a low tone.
"It's just that I have this deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude towards you in some way. I hope you understand, to make it simple, I find myself falling in care for you," the crystalline emerald-eyed fox tells her.
"Meaning…you like me?" Botan asks looking him straight in his eyes. "I'm glad you got that off your chest, it must be hard holding that in."
"Yes, but you don't understand, it's more than that," he adds on. "But I don't think I want to talk about that part of the story. I'll be upstairs, sorry if you don't approve of me being fond of you in that sort of way, Botan."
Botan's sympathetic:
I didn't know what to think when he left off. I thought it was just a little crush like the one Kuwabara had on me years ago. But I guess he was quite serious about it. I couldn't tell him that I didn't like him because I do like him. He's a good friend but I guess no one knows that there is someone else. To tell the truth, I was really lurid.
Kurama enters his room; Hiei was on top of the bunk as he noticed. "Hello Hiei," he talks in a laminated tone. "I think you might know what I was up to?"
"My advice is to stay away from her," the kroomie talks in a strict yet orderly manner. "You do know the reason why you should right?"
"Yes, sorry Hiei, I guess I got a little carried away with it," Kurama replies softly and laid himself on the lower bunk. He stayed silent looking up blankly at the ceiling.
"Did she mention anything about that?" Hiei asks suddenly.
"My apologies, but no," he replies knowing exactly what Hiei meant.
"So does it mean that she doesn't…" the ruby eyed boy paused and came down form the bed. "Does the ceiling amuse you Kurama?"
"No," the boy with red locks said and then wrapped himself around with the blanket and turned around from Hiei. "I'll be hibernating tonight, it's been a long day. Good night Hiei," Kurama gives a fake smile.
Top of the morning. Lets just say that they're going to the beach and Botan and Kurama kept quiet throughout the whole ride over. Well, the girls are in their bathing suits and boys in theirs, Hiei…he's in whatever he's usually in.
"I will not be here to stand this filthy ningen water. It's disgusting and ridiculous," Hiei says to them as he walks off to woods. "I'll walk all the way home later."
"Botan," Kurama says in a sorry tone as the rest of the guys run off into the water. Botan stops and hesitates to turn around.
"Yeah?" She says slowly.
"Sorry about last night, I got carried away," he apologizes. "Are you up for volley ball?"
"Sure," a shaky smile lit up on her cheeks. "You get the ball and we'll set up the net."
Kurama's contemplation/point of view:
I know I got carried away last night about telling her that especially when I knew how Hiei felt. I've promised Hiei once that I wouldn't say anything about it but I had to get it off my chest.
I went to get the volleyball from the truck like she asked. The truck was full of junk; I should really clean it up. I prowled around in it until I found it. The trunk slammed shut as I took the ball over to the beach. Botan was over there setting up the net with Keiko and the guys.
Hiei's point of view:
I took off my bandana and slid out my katana. He had it coming… My Jagan flare open. The tear gem hung around my neck, I know Yukina forbids me to kill but he'll pay for his lie…
"Nice hit, Botan!" Keiko calls as the ball later came for her. She flings the ball over the net and over to Urameshi. He punches it over to the other side.
"Nice try but I think 3 against 2 has better luck," Yusuke laughs as Kurama slams the next ball over. Keiko gets the ball and hits it over again, this time Kuwabara shoots the ball back. Botan tries to get it but ends up falling in the water and the ball touches the ground.
"All right! 1 to 0! We guys have the best score," Kuwabara laughs.
"You all right Botan?" Kurama asks.
"Fine," she replies. She tries to get up but something's caught her ankle. "I…I can't move," she suddenly says to them calmly. "I'm caught on a weed." A long strips of black cloud covers the sun. They all look up at the sky when the loud roar of thunder growled.
"Looks like it's about to rain," Keiko says. Botan nods and unties herself from the weed.
"I'll take down the net with you Keiko," the blue haired feminine smiles.
"You boys should gather all the rest of the supplies and put it in the truck. We'll meet you at the parking lot," Keiko tells them as she began unhooking the net from the poles.
"It's starting to pour hard, Keiko," Botan says looking up at the crying sky as she wrapped the net up in a bundle and Keiko pulled out the poles. "Let's head for the truck before we get too soaked. Uh…here, Keiko, take this net, I need to go use the john."
"Okay, we'll be waiting in the car! Hurry!" Keiko calls as Botan hurries over to the little shack.
A few minutes later, Kurama's in front of the wheel and Kuwabara's in the back seat. Keiko stood out side of the convertible with Yusuke under an umbrella waiting for Botan. "What's taking her so long?" Urameshi whines. His girlfriend glares at him for a moment, knowing of course that she hates him whining, he stops.
"I think you should go check on her, Keiko," Kurama insists.
"Yeah, what if something happened? I can't go marching in the women's bathroom, it's against my honor code," Kuwabara adds. Keiko gives a small nod heads over to the shack holding the umbrella Yusuke gave her.
"Botan! Hey! Where are you?" Keiko asks as she enters the little girl's room. "Botan?" No answer came back. The place was a total trash bag, toilet paper laid everywhere over the ground and mole grew at every corner. "Eww… people got to learn some self respect." She looks around and knocks on every little door, "Botan? That's strange, where is she?"
"I wonder what's taking Keiko so long?" Yusuke asks the guys.
"Yusuke! Kurama! Kuwabara!" The brown-eyed girl runs over in a brutal acceleration. "She's not there! Botan's gone!"
"Botan's gone?!" Kurama asks in a vexed tone. "Are you sure?" He says coming out of his car. "Any signs of where she's gone to?"
"No but there was some blood by the door when I came out," Keiko says irked. "Do you suppose something might have happened to her?" All five of them hastened over to the shack.
"Botan! Are you in there?" Kazuma calls besides the doorway, no answer.
"I'm worried that she might be kidnapped," Urameshi informs. "Kurama, you head to Reikai and she if Koenma's got any information on this. He practically watches us every second," the slick black haired ningen says grabbing on to Keiko. "And we'll search the area."
The red head flashes into a red blinking light, (like how he did when he entered the dimension from Maze Castle.) he settles in front of two large doors. They open up and lets him in, Kurama rushes to Koenma's office, seeing Koenma busy at work with his paperwork.
"I see Botan's gone," Koenma says in a calm yet upset tone. "WHY DID YOU GUYS LET HER OUT OF YOUR SIGHTS!" The munchkin screams. "You guys better find her," he orders.
"Did you happen to catch anything on your television?" Kurama asked simply. Koenma was still yet quite upset, and then it settled down because he did catch it on tape.
"Ogre, do a instant replay on my Koenma-tron T.V 4000!" He tells the blue servant. Ogre did as told and put on the rewind button. "Pause it when Botan comes out of the john."
"Yes, sir," he says back obediently. "Here? There's nothing on there? Huh? Botan disappeared! Did you see that sir? She vanished! Oh! And she cut her wrist on the edge of the door!" Ogre says eye widening.
"I can see that Ogre!" Koenma argues.
"What happened to her?" Kurama asks in a solicitude tone. "Pause it at where she parishes"
"Hm…" Ogre rewinds again. "Ah…she was being pulled by a black fade of flare."
"Clear the screen Ogre, we might get an acquit view of what the black blaze was," the toddler directed. "No… That's not right, where's Hiei, Kurama?"
"He took off, but it can't be him. Why would he do tha-…" Kurama's emerald eyes freezes in shock. "Don't tell me that's what it's about, Hiei," the red head indulges to himself. "My appreciation, Koenma," Kurama accelerates himself out the door.
Urameshi, Kazuma, and Keiko still scuffles to find Botan in the woods near the beach. "I give up. She's not here. If she were to be, we'd probably had found her already." A little rustle comes from the tree few yards from them. "Kurama, anything from the toddler?"
"Where's Hiei?" The boy jumps off the branch of the old maple and next to Kuwabara. Kuwabara and Yusuke shrugs to Kurama.
"Yeah, where's Hiei when you need him," Kuwabara asks.
"He's not here because he has her," Kurama frowns a bit. "If I know Hiei, he's probably nowhere near here. But he knows me well, so he know that the safest place is the most dangerous."
"What are you talking about? Does Hiei have part in this abduction?" Keiko asks clinging on to Yusuke's arm. "What's up with Hiei and his doing so?"
"I knew it! I knew that half-pint was a traitor," Kuwabara folds his arms and feels quite confident that he's right.
"Don't be too prideful, Kuwabara. He has his reasons and they're usually pretty good. This time most likely to fight for Botan," he says lightly. "No more talking, we should find her before Hiei does anything even more foolish."
At the end of every Chapter, there will be a little hint of clue of what happens and/or what will happen in the far future. So this chapter hint is: SESSHOUMARU BEATS UP YOKO! HIEI TELLS YUKINA THE SECRET OF THEIR KINSHIP!
First Chapter done! It is surprising how the little kroomie would go for Botan. Truthfully, I'm not much of a Botan fan. I like Yukina and Hinageshi (Hinageshi is from the YYH 2 movie) better. TELL ME IF I'M OVER DOING THE BIG WORDS? There might be some mistakes like the people that are already dead are in this story or so, but that can be fixed by asking Sir Koenma to revive them. I tend to do that quite a lot. PLEASE REVIEW! I WILL PUT UP THE NEXT CHAPTER WHEN I HAVE 10 REIVEWS!
