~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let me tell you about one of the worst cases I ever had. Case? You're probably wondering. Well see my friend Yusuke is a Spirit detective and I am his partner. So whenever Koenma assigns a case I'll tell Yusuke and the rest of the team. Afterwards, while on the case I'll help where I can. So anyways Koenma assigns yet another case. Nothing new here, right? Wrong. I had no idea I'd be playing such a big part in this case. By the way my name's Botan, the deity of death at your service.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Last time we left them~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"We can't look if you won't come out of the dressing room."
"This is degrading." Botan walked out wearing a black shirt that went to a little below her breasts and had a white collar with different colors of stars on it and the back went down to her butt and ended with two coattails oh and she was wearing a thong too. (sometimes I wonder if I'm a bi for the things I think..)
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Can I be the assistant instead?"
"YUSUKE!!!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Botan hid behind a curtain. "Are you sure I have to wear this?"
"WHAT ABOUT ME!!!! The fangirls are still after me. I think they're camping out in the lobby."
"Calm you two. They might try to rape you but don't worry.."
"DON'T WORRY!?!?!?!?!?!?!" Botan and Kurama gaped/glared at Mr. Gi-yuh simultaneously.
"Don't look at me like I'm crazy. If you don't like the job Miss then you're fired and get of my property. If you choose to stay come to my house at the edge of town and maybe we can talk about a bonus for you." Bhad Gi-yuh licked his lips as he look at Botan. "Oh and live with it Shuuichi.."He walked away.
"I think I'm going to be sick..."
"Hey come on people I know you're new but get to where you're supposed to be. Will Botan and the wee one come 'ere?"
Botan let out an exasperated sigh."Jin, what are you doing here?"
"I have a job. It's time for you to do yours. Now get to the stage the items for your tricks will already be on the stage and I'll be backstage with cue cards saying what to do."
"What, no rehearsal?!"
"Hn, onna maybe if you didn't give those bakas such a rude awakening you would of been able to get to work on time and rehearse."
Botan glared at Hiei. "You're not very helpful for an assistant."
"Hello ladies and gentlemen Welcome to Bhig Bhad Casino. You're entertainment tonight is Ms. Terious the magician and her assistant Fluffy."
"FLUFFY!!"
Botan looked off to the side and rocked back and forth on her feet. "Well they needed a name for you besides Hiei so I may have made a few suggestions...."
"I almost forgot!" Jin threw a pair of cat ears and a tail to Hiei. "Hurry up and put them on."
"You've got to be kidding me..."
"Nope." Botan shoved the cat ears on Hiei's head and put the tail on his..butt. Just the the curtains lifted reveal the rather large crowd.
"Hello Las Vegas! Me and my assistant fluffy just flew in from a magician's camp in the middle of the jungle and were aching to try out our magic tricks. Isn't that right, Fluffy?"
"Bite me."
"Hehe...Fluffy's been a little upset since we left he had little girlfriend. Shh..don't tell anyone." Hiei gaped at Botan in disbelief while she had a triumphant look on her face. The crowd was laughing.
Hiei frowned but it slowly formed into a smirk. "Well at least I didn't sleep with the intructor to pass.."
Botan eyes widened in horror as catcalls and hoots arose from the audience. Her eyes drifted to backstage where Jin was franticly signaling to start the show. "ANYWAYS! With out further ado let's start the show! For my first trick I will saw Hiei in half, blindfolded while being dizzy, and stading on a shaky board over a pit of shark while standing on my hands. If I don't saw it in half perfectly in 30 seconds the bottom of the coffin will open. So, jump in Fluffy!"
"Oh hell no!"
"Uhoh..Is Fluffy scared?"
"I'M NOT SCARED I'M SANE!!!!!!"
"Sure..."
Hiei glared at Botan as he stepped in to the coffin. "I hate you..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Oww...Hello miss can I take your order. OUCH! Hello to you too. OWW!! Hi Sir..." Kurama quickly ran over to the bar.
Yusuke smirked. "Having fun Tarzan."
"Very funny Yusuke...I think my ass is starting to get sore at all the pinching and slapping."
"I almost feel sorry for shrimp over there."
"What are you doing here Kuwabara? Don't you have a job to do."
"It's a packed house tonight no more people can fit in here. Hey look they're starting."
"Seeing that this is Botan and not a trained professional Hiei's chances of surviving are slim to none."
"That's nice to know."
"Eww...gross that looks so real."
"I really hope that isn't blood."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"And now to put him back together and VIOLA!!!!!!!"
Hiei jumps out of the coffin while holding his stomach and glaring at Botan. ~You didn't tell me I had to bring my knees to my chest you could of really been cut in half. I REFUSE TO DIE BECAUSE OF A BAKA FERRY ONNA!!!!!!~(~this means telepathic speaking~)
~Hehe...Relax Hiei..~
~RELAX!!!! YOU WANT ME TO RELAX!!!!!!!!~
~Yeah...kinda....~
~Fine I'll relax. But I get to do the next trick~
~But...~
~Fine I'm quitting~
~Fine you can do the next trick just don't leave me in there~
~...~
~HIEI!!!!!!!!!!!~
"Well we saw Ms. Terious do that amazing feat but now she is going to be put inside a basket full of live snakes and I'm going to tie and gag her then close the lid. If that wasn't exiting enough I'm going to stick a bunch a Knives and a sword in the basket. We'll see how she does as a human pin coushion. >;-]"
"You can't be serious.."
"I'm perfectly serious. Now stand still..."
Botan gulped and started to inch off the stage untill Hiei tackled her down and tied and gagged her before dumping her into the basket.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yusuke shook his head. "Well it was nice knowing Botan...who's going to do the eulogy?"
"Isn't Botan already dead? I mean she IS death." Kurama had an inquisitive look on his face
Yusuke looked like he was trying to think."I never thought of it that way.."
Kuwabara look at the 2 thought capable persons and decided to open his big yap. "I want a flying piece of paper with diamonds in it."
"Kuwabara, we serve drinks here...."
"SHUT UP URAMESHI AND GIVE ME A BEER!!!!!!"
Yusuke raised an eyebrow. "I thought you wanted a flying piece of paper with diamonds in it."
"Is it even legal for you to drink?"
"WHO ASKED YOU!!!!!"
"Don't ruin the fun with your logic."
"Time to get back to work Shuuichi."
Kurama looked back towards the tables where most of the females and some men had big grin on their face and had rope, gags, and paddles. He gulped.
"Well....they're kind of kinky...."
"Yusuke I need something to get me really drunk really quick.."
Yusuke smirked"Are you even legal? Do you have any I.D.?"
"I'm a 1000 year old Youko. I think I'm legal."
"Here. At least we don't have to drive back to the hotel."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Knife 664...665. Would a member from the audience like the come stick a knife in how about the retarded man in the front. Here you go for knife 666 you can use this kantana."
"Are you finished Fluffy?" Hiei turned around and saw Botan standing there with her hands on her hips.
"Oh Ms. Terious how did you get out?"
"I can't tell you that. Even though you switched the basket and locked the trap door!"
"Hn."
"Thanks for trying to skewer me it allway a pleasure I hope you didn't kill the stand-in."
"Stand-in?"
"Who in their right mind would actually let you do this to them, exept for the unfortunate stand-in..." Botan opened the basket and closed it fast. "Well let's pause for a brief intermission..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Hiei you killed her..."
"That never happened..."Hiei unsheathed his katana. "Got it?"
Botan gulped. "Forgeting...."
"Hey there lass what should I do with the dead lass?"
"What dead girl?"
"Hn. Just throw it out baka."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Hello everyone for our next trick Fluffy is going to be lowered into this pool of sharks then we are going to lock the pool and see if he makes it out."
"I'M GOING TO WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!"
"You heard me chop-chop.."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Taking out the trash. Taking out the trash. Hideho and smoke some mo' taking out the trash! Hi there."
"HISSS....."A figure suddenly jumped out from behind the trash can and attacked!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"NO HIEI DON'T PULL ME IN!!!!!!!!!!" A large splash was made as the two fell into the pool.
"LOCK THE POOL!" After a few seconds the water turn red and nothing could be seen. Then 'Fluffy' walked from behind the tank dragging a soaked Ms. Terious behind him. The crowd watched then in disbeleif.
Botan looked across the crowd. "Um...tada..?" The crowd suddenly went wild. "Um that's all for today!" Botan shrugged and took a bow which made the men stare long and hard at her chest.."Come on Fluffy take a bow."
"Hn, I will not."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Kuwabaras brain actually made a thought. "Hey where's Kurama?"
Yusuke shrugged. "I haven't seen him since I gave him that drink."
"What was in there?"
"Oh, I just put a lot of stuff in there and a whole shitload of Pepsi."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Hey Ms. Terious, do you do parties?"
"I got a bachelor party I want you to come to."
"Will you go on a date with me."
"I'll pay you $1000 dollars to come to my house for a little 'party' in my room."
"Umm..I have to go now..."Botan pushed through the crowd to get to the dressing room. She opened the door and slammed it a she got in.
"Have fun with your fan club, onna?"
Botan rolled her eyes. "You're so helpful Hiei..."
Hiei smirked. "It's my job."
"You're trying to kill me, huh?"
"Who me? Of course not."
Botan glared at Hiei. She then pulled out her baseball bat and BAM!
"Why you little wench!" Hiei jumped on Botan and they started fighting.(Notice he didn't pull out his sword...^_^ Aww..he cares!)
They suddenly stopped with Hiei on top of Botan in an ehem..interesting position. "Give up?" The door suddenly opened.
"Hey Botan, Hiei!" Yusuke stopped in his tracks. "Um...Am I interrupting something?"
"Hey Urameshi why'd you-SHRIMP GOT LUCKY WITH BOTAN!!!!!!!"
Botan tried to slap her forehead but her hand was pinned down. "GET OFF!!!!"
"Hn." Hiei got off reluctantly.
Botan stood up and dusted herself off. "I'm going to go change."
The door suddenly swung open and Jin staggered in and collasped. "Something..attacked..me..red..hair..." With that Jin was out like a light.
"Red hair? You don't suppose...?"
A door slam was heard and a bemused Kurama walked in while rubbing his butt and holding his head. "This is going to be a long case.."
"Well it just got longer. Something attacked Jin."
"Is he okay?"
"He got knocked out..he did however mention that whatever attacked him had red hair."
"Hey guy bussiness is great that's the biggest crowd we ever had on a weekday! Get ready, tomorrow you all are working in the casino. Be prepared for tomorrow an important guest is coming."
"Hey Mr. Gi-yuh what's that in your pocket."
Bhad Gi-yuh reach into his pocket and pulled out a red wig. "Oh its just a wig nothing special you can have it." He tossed the wig over to Botan before leaving.
Botan took a look at the wig in her hands. "Well that just increased the suspect list.."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Next time on the case~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Do they always have to take the girl?"
"Well they usually are the weakest. I'm just following orders. Capture Koenma's lackies by any means necessary and make sure that blue haired one is unharmed."
Botan rolled her eyes."Wow..So original.."
"I know isn't it.^_^"
Botan sweatdropped. "..."
