Disclaimer: If I owned YYH Botan and Hiei would be a couple. Kuwabara would evil (o.o) Kurama would be shown in the series more and Yusuke wouldn't be Keiko's boyfriend. In other words, I don't own YYH!

Chapter Two: Uh…….

(Hiei's POV!)

I walked into the darkly lit slave auction. Maybe she would be here this time. I saw her immediately. Her light blue tresses were held up in her usual ponytail on the back of her head. Her pink eyes were lost in thought. She wore barely anything which made me very angry. Not to mention she was so skinny they were probably starving her. If that was true, I would be very furious.

I didn't know when I started to like her. That baka na ferry onna. Maybe it was when I first saw her with that baka detective and healing his woman. Or at least she was trying too. Or maybe it was after the fight with Sensui when I had found out that she had agreed to carry me back. (A.N: Kuwabara asked her after they got out of the cave.)

Whatever the case, I knew I had a soft spot for her, although I didn't admit it at the time. And then I took over the Ningenkai and the Reikai. I was going to mate with her. With Botan. Sure, it was odd, but I couldn't help but feel the magnetic force that pulled me to her. It made me want to be around her.

"Five thousand for the girl," I said loudly. Everyone looked at me as if I had grown three heads. Everyone knew slaves weren't worth that much. I glared at them from under my cloak. Well, she was worth it.

"Alright, right this way, sir," The man said. I walked behind the red curtain of the stage. We walked past other slaves. I had to resist the urge to cover my nose from their filthy smell. Soon we stopped at an old oak desk. The demon told me to sign some papers. I did as he said and then I grabbed the ferry onna's arm and I pulled her to me. I don't want her touching anything in this filthy place. I then quickly placed the same arm around her waist. We left and walked back to the palace in silence.

We soon came to the gate and I saw two new recruits standing guard. I saw Botan blink a few times. The guards refused to let us in. I growled quietly in frustration. One demanded that I remove my hood. I rolled my eyes and removed in without protest. The guards' faces became very pale. I called them bakas under my breath. I heard Botan gasp at me revealing who I was. I was a little disappointed that she hadn't figured in out before.

I sighed as we walked through the large double doors that led inside. My arm tightened around her waist in a more possessive fashion. I wanted everyone here to know that she belonged to me. We walked through the long hallways until we reached my room.

I was sure that she had questions. Botan walked in first, her eyes glancing over the room. I saw her spot the Code of Hammurabi. A human actually came up with something interesting for once.

Before I would answer her questions, she had to answer mine, "Onna," I started emotionlessly, "Why the hell did you escape from the Rekai before!?" My voice that a pinch of anger in it.

"What do you mean, Hiei?" She asked. She looked so cute when she was acting innocent. I shook my head. I should stay on the subject.

"You know what I mean onna! When I took over the Ningenkai, you escaped and left the Rekai palace. If you would have just stayed you wouldn't be captured by those slave traders," I said, faking an angry voice.

"Oh, that time!" Botan sweat dropped, "Well, you kinda where trying to take over everything, I figured you would have killed me for that time I told Yukina she was your sister. It was an accident thought Hiei! You have no reason to kill me. And why do you care about me getting captured anyway?" Botan asked curiously. I blinked a few times. Wait, she was the one who told Yukina I was her brother! Okay, now I pissed.

I glared at her. I would get her back. Although I'm sure she wouldn't exactly like hearing what I'm about to tell her, "Mating Season" I mumbled.

"What?" Botan asked. It seems as through she didn't hear me.

"I said Mating Season onna. I was going to use you to relieve my stress during that time. Luckily I found you before the fire demon mating season started again," I muttered. Okay, maybe that wasn't the whole truth, but I wasn't ready to tell her.

"What!" She blinked. I could see hurt staining her beautiful pink eyes. "And when does this mating season start anyway?!" She asked her hurt replaced with anger.

I smirked. She looked cute when she was angry, "Tonight at midnight and it lasts for two months," I answered. She frowned. I had a feeling she wasn't going to cooperate. I sighed.

"I'm going to leave now, I will have Yoko come and check on you later," I said emotionlessly. Before she could protest, I left her in my room. I carefully locked the door and left. I was going to find out if they had starved her at the slave traders. If they did, someone would die.

(Botan's POV)

My eye twitched as he left the room. And what exactly was I going to do? I sprawled out on his bed. It was really comfy.

I heard a door unlock and open. My eyes traveled to a small figure walking into the room. The person closed the door quietly. I sat up as it turned around.

"Holy crap!" A feminine voice said. I giggled as she came out of the shadows. "Oh, it's just you."

I looked at her curiously. Did she know me or something? "Um, do I know you?" I asked.

"Uh…" she looked around the room, "Well no. It's a long story, I'll tell you later," the girl came out of the shadows and I saw a small girl that looked no taller than a fifteen year old.

"So, are you a slave?" I asked. She shook her head.

"Nope, I'm a prisoner here. Well, kinda. I feel like it. Yoko kinda wanted a 'friend' during the winter," she replied. She scanned the room with her dark green orbs, "Hey! No fair! You have paper in your room!" I sweat dropped as she ran over to Hiei's desk. She pulled a pencil out of her pocket and started to draw on the white paper.

I walked over to the strange fifteen year old, "So, what are you drawing."

"People," she replied. My eye twitched.

"Can you be more specific?" I asked. "And what's your name anyway?"

"I'm drawing an anime girl type elf person. And my name is Envy," I said. I blinked. What a strange name. Envy and I talk for about two ours before we heard someone –or something- turn the doorknob. I heard her gulp.

"Damn," I heard her mutter as the door began to open.
