Suki-dazed look at all the pretty lights.

Sis- and there goes Chocolate Chip Monkey Bye bye.

Suki-I don getit.

On with dah show


A new home

Botan woke up to whispering, she looked over and saw Kagome and the others talking by some weird gadget that had a pot over it. She groaned involuntarily, taking that purifying wave was catching up to her. Shippo, who had been nearby playing, yelled to warn his elder companions of her waking. She winced, man he was loud.

Then there was a heated discussion, Botan couldn't hear of what, which end in Kagome sitting InuYasha and then walking over to Botan with a steaming bowl of something. Kagome knelt down beside her.

"How are feeling?" she asked kindly handing Botan the bowl and some chopsticks.

"Like I was caught under a herd of bear demons." Kagome winced. Botan took the bowl and looking into it. "What is this?"

"It's ramen, it's from my time," said Kagome. Botan took a small sip then, after deciding she liked it, slowly started eating, taking small bites.

" Is that thing from your time to?" the spider demon asked curiously pointing to the stove. Kagome nodded.

A few questions later Botan finished her ramen and stood up shakily then started walking towards her sister. InuYasha thought she was escaping and jumped in front of her. Of course she still hadn't recovered from the day before and was unstable so the sudden movement startled her and she fell on her bum.

"Owie, my bum!" she whined rubbing her abused body part. Everyone sweatdropped. Botan oblivious to all, used InuYasha's white under thing (he still hasn't gotten the fire rat robe back yet) to pull her self up.

"Wow your tall," she stated before continuing to Suki. When she reached her sister's side she…started to poke her. Sango had untied Suki before going to bed, Kagome having convinced her that they meant no harm.

"I tried to wake her up," said Kagome coming over to her side. " But she didn't move a muscle." Botan nodded then started mumbling ways to wake Suki up.

"Hmm, water? No we've been through that. Tickle her? No that's more dangerous for me…"

While Botan mumbled looking around Miroku had taken advantage of Sango being distracted… hand twitched then…

Smack!

"Hentai!"

Everyone's head turned to see Sango's hand in the air and Miroku holding his red cheek. This gave Botan an idea.

"Sango, can I borrow Miroku please?" she said. The fuming demon slayer nodded and pushed the monk over. Botan then pulled Miroku down and whispered in his ear. Miroku started to grin and they watched as Miroku's hand moved down to the rear of the unsuspecting bat.

A fist came up and Botan leaned back quickly to dodge, but poor, poor Miroku wasn't fast enough and flew up into a tree. Suki sat up and blinked a few times, noticing everyone was staring at her, except Botan who was sitting back against a different tree with cloth in her hands.

"Uhh, did I miss something?" she asked. Everyone looked up where Miroku had landed and Suki followed their eyes and blinked again. Getting up she walked over.

" Miroku what are you doing up there?" she asked looking up the tree. Miroku unfortunately couldn't answer because he was out cold. All sweatdropped.


A while later and further down the road the group came to a clearing. Botan and Suki had joined the little band of shard hunters claiming that Kagome, InuYasha and Shippo were in need of some major training. InuYasha had finally let them come… with some coughencouragementcough from Kagome. It was about the size of a football field with a small lake on one side and forest on the other. Botan inspected the clearing critically.

She turned to the group behind her. Suki and Shippo were each licking a lollipop that Kagome had given them earlier. Actually she had given Shippo one, then Suki asked what it was so Kagome gave her one as well. Lets just say; now she's happy (Suki: I'm always happy when I have sugar!).

InuYasha was still sulking because Kagome was mad at him. Kagome herself had been talking to Suki about herbs ignoring InuYasha completely and Miroku and Sango were just talking.

"Ok," Botan said catching everyone's attention. " This is going to be our home base for now. We'll be training eating and sleeping here. The only time we'll leave is to get food or to answer calls of help." She looked around. "So first we're going to need to build a shelter, then we need to make two small pools for bathing…" She took a deep breath and continued, using her fingers to count. "…we need a large barrier around the clearing so people can't find us, and a smaller one for training so none of Kagome's energy accidentally purifies us, an obstacle course would be good a big one, and wood for fire wood, a garden and…" she looked at Kagome. "…and clothes. Any questions?" she asked innocently. Everyone but her sister looked at her weird.

"What?" the stares were making her uncomfortable.

"Who put you in charge?" InuYasha finally burst.

"You have a better idea?" Botan challenged.

"Yea, we go after Naraku and cut him to pieces," he said punching his hand.

"And how do you plan to do that? From what I understand he is always hiding, he has billions of demons at his beck and call not to mention incarnations and most of your Shikon jewel. He is smart and he uses strategies. You have no means of countering him other than brute strength, which he still has more of, and only two of you can actually use your full potential," Botan said watching as each of the shard hunters faces became sad, angry, taken a back, shame filled with a small spark of determination and her sister who found something more interesting to do… like pouncing on fish in the small lake ( Suki: Weeeeeeeeeeee!(Sis: -sweatdroppes-) What?). Sango finally spoke up.

"If you don't think we can do it why are you still here? Wait how do you know all this about Naraku if you've never met him?" she said, her voice shaking slightly. Her arm went behind her to Hiraikotsu. The others went on alert.

" My spiders," said Botan shrugging and then lifting out her hand to show a spider. "After you were talking about him I sent some spiders out to collect information. I like to know the reputations of the stronger demons wherever we go so we can avoid a fight if it's not necessary."

"And to answer your first question, we didn't say we thought you couldn't do it. We just said that you're a little rough around the edges you need more training. Also we, too, on a quest of revenge," Suki answered for her and her sister, Botan nodded. The shard hunters looked at them confused, Sango's hand had left her boomerang, until Miroku figured it out.

" Your parents." He said with a knowing look. The others looked at the two demons, who nodded.

" We have reason to believe some one tipped off Oberon that our mother had children and as far as I can tell it seems like something Naraku would do," Suki's eyes hardened. "We are tired of running and I'm sure your tired of Naraku getting away." When they nodded Suki gave them a huge grin. "Well then let's team up and kick some evil butt!" she yelled punching the air. Shippo joined her in jumping around until InuYasha knocked them both on the head.

"Owie!" they yelled crying, "What did we ever do to you?"

The others laughed and InuYasha 'fehed'

When they finished laughing and everyone had lightened up Botan took a deep breath, straitened and went all drill sergeanty.

"Uh oh," said Suki backing away slowly the others were confused.

"Now if we're done talking let's get to work! InuYasha you start cutting down trees for the house. Sango and Kagome you start moving rocks to make the bathing pools, Shippo you go find firewood don't stray too far. Miroku you put wards up around the clearing and Suki…" Botan turned to the retreating bat.

"I'm gonna start the garden," she said then ran as fast as she could away from her sister.
