Gifts of good and evil
Normal POV
Botan awoke from her dream; sweat left a thin sheet of shine on her skin. She could not help but wonder what it was about. She quickly shrugged it off remembering with day it was. It was the day she would get to hand with the group as Botan.
Botan got up and walked to her phone to call Kurama. "Kurama, this is Oki Ran..."
::What is it are you okay?::
"Oh yes, I just called to thank you for helping me and to say that I won't be joining you at the party I have business to take care of."
:: Alright... you know you sound a lot like Botan.::
"I do? Well I guess I have a cold of something...bye." She slammed to phone down and sighed 'that was close.'
Botan's POV
After the close call on the phone I speed up to my room and pulled out the kimono I wore when I was out with Kurama, I knew that of I wore it he would know, so I pulled out my other kimono, the yellow one I wore to the dark tournament.
I took a warm shower and got dressed, then put a blue wig on over my hair, hoping it would be enough to fool the other into thinking it was real.
I looked in the mirror noticing that I still had the contacts in so I took them out. "I'm me again." I smiled at the mirror and looked at a clock on the wall, I had an hour left.
I hate waiting for parties and besides if the guys saw me there before the party they would ask questions so I decided to go for a walk.
Normal POV
"Masster," the demon hissed again, "I ssent a ssurprisse for Oki Ran, or Botan."
"Good now see to it that she gets the gift on time, just put the gift on the doorstep." The demon said and smiled darkly. The party would be a blast...literally.
Elsewhere
What should we get Botan?" Kuwabara asked Yusuke as he and Yukina and Kaiko were in the mall.
Yusuke smiled and looked at a Frederic's store, he brought up his eyebrows three times. Kaiko saw this and smacked him into the back of the head "what I was joking."
"I know, I saw this Kimono in this one store, it was baby blue and had yellow starts all over it." Kaiko said, "come on Yukina lets go get it, I also saw a matching bracelet that you could get for her." And with that the girls walked off. "Yusuke, I want to see the gift before you wrap it." Kaiko warned
"So what are you going to get her?" Kuwabara asked
"I don't know, how about a new oar, one that matches her..." Yusuke said
"Maybe, lets go look." Kuwabara said and they did just that.
Elsewhere still
"Come on Hiei just think about what she would like." Kurama said
"I don't care about that Onna and her Death day." He said
"Yes you do." Kurama said and Hiei blushed "see, now I know it might be hard to admit it but you care about her like you care about Yukina, I've seen you watch over her just as protectively."
"And." Hiei said
"Look I'll help you find something, we have less than an hour left." Kurama pushed his short friend put of the tree knowing that he would land on his feet.
"Fox!" Hiei looked up and sigh, "lets go." The two walked off to a small store in the city.
Botan's POV
"I wonder what I'm gonna get?" I asked myself. I really didn't care as long as they all showed up, I found myself hoping that Hiei would show up and that brought me back to thoughts of Kurama. Kurama, would he tell me he loved me at the party?
I blushed, hoping her would, 'do I love him too?' I asked and bumped into someone I looked back and smiled, "Touya?" I looked at the blue haired demon.
"Hello Botan. I've been looking for you." He said
"Why and how did you get into the human world?" I asked and he handed me a note with Koenma's seal on it.
"Koenma sent me to give you this." Touya said and waited for me to read it.
Dear Botan,
What are you doing? You have not given me the report, what the hell is going on! This is not a vacation. Report to spirit world ASAP.
Koenma.
"Oh, I can't go to Spirit world right now." Botan said, "Could you tell him that I have other plans." Botan said and Touya sweat dropped "don't worry I do think he will do anything to you." Botan smiled as she and Touya went their separate ways.
