STRANDED!!

Jewls?

"You…are such a baka onna…" Hiei sweat dropped as he held onto Botan's leg, because somebody had to not watch where they were going and fall right off a freakin cliff!

"HEY! Blame it on the damn ducks, not me!" Botan screamed as Hiei lowered her a bit for amusement.

"No I blame you for doing the unthinkable and actually hitting a duck." Botan glared up at him. Hiei finally pulled her up and Botan ate dirt. "Also...to blame the ducks for falling off the cliff, they actually have to be around to do it...not just day dream and walk straight off."

"Well I'm sorry Mr. High and Mighty, but at least I have things to day dream about!"

"Whatever, lets just go."

They walked in silence for the next twenty minutes. Finally Botan broke the silence. "Maybe…maybe we should have stayed on the beach where we knew where everything was."

Hiei snarled. "Onna, with you in a bathing suit, I couldn't control my instincts, so now with you in pants and a shirt that actually covers you, I can control them a little bit better."

"A little?" Hiei just kept walking and that's when Botan realized that she had stopped. Hiei's eyes flashed when he saw a shadow move to the right of them. Behind a purple bush…what the…

"HIEI WATCH OUT!" Botan shouted and just in time for Hiei to dodge a dagger aimed right for his chest.

The figure landed on the ground in a heap. She turned and glared at Botan and Hiei. "What…oh, a human and a demon, what are you doing on this island?"

Botan was utterly confused and Hiei was slightly shocked and confused though it didn't show on his face. "Who are you and why are you here and how did you get here?"

"I'm a multi-human who trained to be an assassin, but my plane crashed and I got stranded on this island, thought about my ways, and my assassin days are over. The names Jewls. Yada Yada." (That's how her name is spelt)

'Should we trust her?' Hiei sent telepathically.

'Uh…NO!'

Hiei winced as Botan's shout sounded out through his head. "This is Hiei and I'm Botan." Jewls kept staring at Hiei.

"Nice to meet you. I haven't seen people in a year, and I was getting lonely." She smiled softly.

"That still doesn't explain why you attacked us in the first place."

"I thought you were a demon."

"Well duh, you said it yourself." Hiei growled.

Jewls shrugged her shoulders. "Well you had a mate with you and I assumed you too were stranded on this island as well." She blinked when she saw Botan and Hiei turn beat red.

"Us…mates…hehe…yeah right." Botan was nervous. Hiei only glared at her.

"You mean you two aren't mates?"

"Not in a million years." Hiei said. Jewls smirked at Hiei. This was gonna be fun.

"Well then you two won't mind if I come along with you guys, I just don't want to be alone anymore." Jewls shivered at the thought.

Hiei and Botan shrugged. "Just keep your distance." Botan said glaring. Something was up with her.

"I can see why you all don't trust me yet, but I'm gonna have to win that trust." Jewls balled her fist in the air in determination with sparkles in her eyes. Hiei and Botan sweat dropped.

"Whatever…" Hiei and Botan muttered walking the other way, Botan slightly behind Hiei. Jewls realized that they were leaving and ran after them.

"Hey wait up!"

OoO

"This forest is creepy, why did we have to come to a part where I've never been?" Jewls was getting uneasy and moved a bit closer to Hiei who was in the middle of Botan and herself.

Botan glared at Jewls and moved away from her and Hiei. Hiei caught this and turned to her with a quizzical look. Botan didn't look at him and just stared to the left. She really didn't want to feel jealous.

So much for quality time with Hiei.

Hiei's sensitive hearing picked up the rumbling of bombs. "What the hell?"

"What is it Hiei?" Jewls asked.

"Can you run?"

"Yeah, almost as fast as a cheetah why?"

"WATCH OUT ONNA!" Hiei shouted as a bomb came bombarding down on top of her. She screamed and the bomb hit.

"RUN NOW!" With Botan unconscious in his arms, Hiei and Jewls ran as fast as they could, Jewls barley keeping up with jealousy boiling inside of her. He was really fast. Faster than a cheetah.

He had trained Botan, but she was not trained to block a bomb coming straight at her head. All Hiei was focused on now, was getting Botan to safety.
