Looking for her, Looking for him
"We need to find her if she is the key then this could bring the end of the world." Yusuke said, "What else is new." He sighed
"Calm down Urameshi, geez." Kuwabara said
"This is my fault, I should have told you, and I should have broken that promise, keeping her safe was more important." Yusuke said leaning against a wall in an alley "Dammit!"
"We will find her, we just have to split up and look everywhere." Kurama said
"Hn, what a waste of time." Hiei said getting dark looks
"Do you have a better idea shorty?" Kuwabara asked
"Hn, leave her be, she should have trusted us, she brought this upon herself." He said vanishing
"Hiei! You asshole! Get back here." Kuwabara yelled
"Calm down, Hiei's just as frustrated as we are." Kurama said "he cares for her as much as we do." he said
With Botan
"Okay you see that target?" Haru asked pointing to a target about ten yards away.
"Barely." Botan said holding her bow up and placing an arrow on the shaft.
"Well you have to get a perfect bull's-eye." He said "I know you can." He said
"Okay I am ready to try." She said pulling back and letting the arrow go. It landed in the grass only five yards in front of her
"This is hard." She said
"Well keep trying. I expect you to know this by tomorrow morning." He said
"What?" Botan exclaimed "But I cant do It." she said
"That's not what I want to hear, do you want to save our father or not?' Haru asked
"I do." Botan said
"Father used to tell you that you would amount to nothing, don't you want to prove him wrong?" he said "or do you want to be a pathetic little girl forever?" he asked
"No! I can do it." Botan vowed, "just watch me." She placed another arrow on the shaft and pulled the string and arrow back. Letting go it made a flicking sound as the fletching dashed past the string.
The arrow whistled though the air cutting the wind hitting its mark, the center of the target. "I did it! Did you see?" Botan jumped up and down.
"I did. Now try it like this." he said closing her eyes.
"Hey I cant see." she said, "how can I hit a target like this?" she asked
"Feel the air around you, sense the Target and tell your mind where you want this arrow to go." He whispered
"Okay, I'll try it." Botan said
With Kurama
He was casually walking down the street lost in thought falling to see the girl before him, She too was lost in thought, BAM! They crashed.
"Ouch." She exclaimed looking at Kurama, "sorry. I was thinking about something, I guess I should sit and think next time huh?" She asked
"Yes, well it seems we were both lost in thought, "I am Kurama."
"Hey, I know of you. You were in the dark tournament!" the girl exclaimed and Kurama covered her mouth as the public watched them. He pulled her into an alley.
"How do you know about that?" he asked letting his hand slip.
"Oh well, since you are a demon too I guess I can tell you." She said, "my name is Nakia, I am a demon as well, I have been looking for one of my friends, I was told that he was confined to this city and so I am looking for him." She said
"I am looking for someone too." He sighed. "You say you are looking for a demon who is confined to this city? That sounds a lot like someone I know."
"Yeah, well we grew up together, well up until the point the bandits exiled him," she said, "The only thing I can remember about him are his red eyes." She said
"Hiei." He breathed.
"What?" She asked
"Nothing," Kurama said "I hope you find who you are looking for." He said
"You too." She said waving him off.
With Botan
After finishing her bow training she was worn out, lying in the grass with her bow clutched in her hands.
"Very good, you are ready." Haru said "go wash up, dinner will be ready soon." He smiled 'foolish girl, soon you will give up your soul to free father and I will use you to kill those detectives of yours, I better think of something good...' Haru thought turning from Botan with a dark smile.
"Haru thank you for helping me remember." She said
"No thank you," he said
