Notes: Written for the livejournal community anime100's challenge: a chase, a lamppost, sunset.
Summary: Botan is on a mission, and Hiei comes to her aid.

Botan swore under her breath as she flew on her oar all the way from Reikai to Ningenkai on a wild goose chase. One of the recently fired oni had stolen an important document, and she had only until sunset to retrieve it.

She zoomed past trees, buildings, and various structures before coming to an abrupt halt.

She saw Hiei, standing perfectly balanced on top of a lamppost. His right arm stretched out to the side, hand wrapped around the throat of the oni she was after.

"Do you need this one alive?" he asked.

"Actually, yes," Botan said nervously. "Thanks for the help."
