Chapter 7 SUGARSUGARSUGARSUGARSUGARSUGAR SUGARSUGAR

When they came back they ate dinner at Botan's and Yusuke, Keiko, and Kurama had to leave after. Hiei sat on the couch eating his sweet snow that he picked out and Botan did the dishes. "Hiei, if you are going to eat all the food in my apartment at least clean up after yourself."

"Hn," Hiei watched a movie and ate his sweet snow not caring. Then a plate broke in the kitchen and Hiei was there like...that! Botan was at the sink with blood stained water. "What's going on?" Hiei asked and walked over to Botan. He lifted her wrist out of the water and her face turned white. "What did you do?" Botan's wrist had a huge gash in it and blood was seeping out. Hiei put pressure on it to stop the bleeding and grabbed a towel with his other hand and wrapped it around her wrist. Hiei looked around to see what could have caused the cut and saw that the widow above the sink had a small hole in the bottom. Hiei looked back at Botan and down at the towel. The towel was full of blood. Botan's breathing was deep and harsh. "Botan, are you okay?"

"Yes," Botan spat out and took in a deep breathe.

"No, your not," Hiei said and lead her to the living room and made her sit down on the couch. "Botan this might hurt a little," Hiei took off the towel and Botan gasped. Hiei put his hands over the wound and gave her some of his energy. His energy had healed the cut. Botan pasted out when Hiei took his hands away. Hiei caught her before she hit the floor. "Botan!" Hiei said. "Botan, look at me," Hiei hit her cheek genteelly. Botan's eye's opened partly and than closed. Hiei smirked, than picked her up and carried Botan to her room. Hiei set her down and pulled the covers over her and sat in a chair by the window and looked out it.

Botan woke in the morning and looked around at her surroundings. Hiei sat in a chair by the window, asleep. Botan stood up and walked over to him. He woke at the sound of her approaching. "How are you doing?"

"Fine thank you," Botan said.

"Hn," Hiei said. "You should be more careful."

"What do you want to eat? I'll make you something," Botan said and Hiei stood up.

"No," Hiei said. "Come with me," Hiei led her to the kitchen. Than pointed to the hole in the widow. "What do you

think that is?"

"A hole in my window," Botan said, "which wasn't there before."

"Exactly," Hiei said. "That's what happened yesterday. Someone shot you with something and that's how you got that gash."

"Meaning...someone wants to kill me?" Botan said.

"You are a baka!" Hiei walked out of the room and into the living room where he sat down and started to watch TV. Botan slowly walked into the room with tears rolling down her face.

"I'm not that bad," Botan said and walked into her room and sat on her bed and sobbed in to her hands. Hiei walked into her room and sat next to her. "I can't take it any more!" Botan said. "I can't see why any one would want to kill me, I haven't done anything wrong."

"It's not what you did," Hiei said. "It's what your mother did."

"Nani?" Botan looked at Hiei with tears streaming down her face.

'I know now that I am way too soft...I think I...No! I can't like her!' Hiei thought.

"You knew my mother?" Botan asked.

"Your mother is Yuma," Hiei said and Botan stood up. Hiei stood up too. "Botan you have to face it, your mother is a demon; so are you."

"No! I'm human!" Botan screamed. "People want to kill me for the power my mother had..."

"Yes," Hiei said. "Botan..." Hiei put his hand under her chin and turned her face so she was looking at him. "I had a lot of respect for your mother..."

"That was her not me," Botan said. "I was abandon at birth..."

"She couldn't keep you with her in Spirit World and your father couldn't keep you because he died shortly after you were born," Hiei said.

"How do you know this?" Botan asked.

"I told you, when I was kicked out of my city your mother took me in and gave me food and shelter," Hiei said and Botan turned away from him. 'Kurama was right...I shouldn't have told her.' Hiei walked out of the room and out of the apartment. Than the window broke... A/N: I know this chappie is short but hey! I did good writing it so SHUT UP! Hope ya likes it!
