Nightmares and Pains


Hello, sorry it took so long, I was more busy on school work and how I was suppose to write this chapter. Anyway on with the story!


A/N: This is mostly about Botan and her feelings towards Kurama and how it effected the gang and how Kurama fought Sachi. I made up some parts and there are some spoilers so enjoy!
Meanwhile Botan spent her afternoon up on the blue skies. She was still only a bit worry about Kurama, but the other side of herself said that she has faith in him. It was almost time for her to go back to the temple before Yukina gets too worried, while landing she sensed something strange. She looked back and there was nothing. It must be my imagination, I must of spend too much in the sun. She thought, again she sensed it and it made her worry even more. "Puu are you there? This is not the time for playing hide-and-seek. Puu?" She said. She looked everywhere and she can't whoever it is, all of a sudden she heard something behind the bushes. She was about to panic and yelled for help, but it was too late the demon had made a gash on her forehead. It hurt so much that she cried out in pain enough to let Kuwabara or anyone to hear. "Did you hear that it sounded more like Botan!" cried Kuwabara, Koenma made a run for it in search for her Kuwabara followed him into the forest and summoned his spirit sword and sliced a demon who looked like a snake with an knife-shaped horn. Koenma ran after Botan who was laid on the cold ground with blood coming out of her head, "Botan are you alright? Answer me!" said Koenma, he was worried about his head ferry girl till Kuwabara hold his shoulder and said, "We should bring her in the temple and let Yukina or Genkai to heal her wounds.'' Kuwabara carried the unconscious Botan back to the temple.

Meanwhile at Makai, Kurama has this feeling that something was wrong but he doesn't know what. He was on the hallways of Yomi's castle and he felt a prescense of a demon, "There's no use to resort to violence, so I suggess that you should leave me be or you'll suffer my punishment.'' Kurama said in a cold voice. Away from the shadows revealed the former second-in-command; Sachi. "I don't care about your pathetic warnings, I challenge you to the death!" he said. He ran to Kurama's dirction who wasn't moving an inch, "DIE!" He cried, Kurama kept dodginghis attack then summoned his rosewhip to move his attacks away from him. While they pause for a moment, Sachi then gave a sinister grin and said, "I know your secrets half-breed, and I'll kill that pathetic spirit guide of yours." Kurama was about turn into his fox form; but Sachi tried to stab him with his trident making Kurama unable to transform into Yoko. "Alright you parasite destroy that human brother of his!" ordered the fishman. "No can do sir.'' he replied. "What?" He yelled, "I work for Kurama now sorry to say that sir." "What!Why you traitor after all I did to protect you!" Sachi couldn't belive that the parasite have turn his back on him, he then face Kurama who was no longer the red-haired man who now transformed into a silver haired demon with the resemblance of a fox. "You should know not to trust an insect like him, now I will show no mercy.'' Said the cold-blooded Yoko Kurama, he then used his rosewhip to kill Sachi. "Now you know that I show no mercy." Sachi who was lying on the floor was suprise that his energy level was even higher then before he looked at Yoko Kurama and died.

"So Genkai how's her condition?" asked Keiko. She was so worried about Botan since Kuwabara and Koenma had dropped her off the temple. "She has a mild fever from the shock, but I don't know if she'll be alright. That cut on her forehead was long and we don't know what happens if she can recover." Keiko was even more worried that her friend was hurt and that she can't find a way to help her. Botan was lyingdown on a futon while Yukina place a warm cloth on her forehead, which was covered by a bandage. Yukina left the room and went straight to the living room. But unbeknownst to them the cut on Botan's head was inflicted by a poison, inside herhead she was having a horrible dream

Botan's Dream

'Where am I? Is this some kind of dream?'

Flashbacks were occuring to her head, some were the previous tournament and the beginning of working as an assistance for the spirit detective. She saw an image that wasn't suppose to be there, it was Kurama. And he was fighting Karasu.

'No this. Anything but this.'

Tears were forming in her eyes on seeing the most gruesome fight she ever witness.

''Well folks the suspense is in the air, can you feel it? Just one more attack from Karasu means curtains fromyou-know-who.''said Koto.

'This can't be happening, it's just a dream. But why am I seeing this?'she ask herself.

It was sad to see Kurama hurt especially from some obssess fighter who wants to kill him. Kurama tried to fight Karasu with all he has inside Botan's mind and it was hard for her to stop looking at it because it was hard to close her eyes,

''Come any closer Kurama and your a deadman, you know well that I can manipulate bombs.'' said Karasu.

''I shall not be afraid of something I can not see!''answer Kurama.

He ran up to Karasu and planted a seed in his chest, which didn't affect him. Botan in the other hand couldn't move from the view and was force to open her eyes, which was now filled with tears.

Moments later Karasu held out a seed and said,

''I thought you were something special, but this is orginal. You really think this should kill me?but you lack of tact Kurama, that you should need some. I must say that you injured me more then once I congratulate that.''

Suddenly an object grabbed Kurama's left leg, it was a living bomb!

'No, please not this. Anything but that. I can't see him getting hurt like that, please let me wake up from this nightmare!' she cried.

''Mwahaha, time to say bombs away! said the demonic bomb.''

''That's what I call my mad bomb.''

''Nhahahaha, out of luck now your dead.'' said the bomb.

Thedemonic bomb had detonated hurting Kurama's left leg, he cried out of pain. The voice of his pain made Botan yelling out of pain she cried so hard to stop seeing him getting hurt.

'Please, I can't take it anymore! I don't want to see Kurama getting hurt! I want to get out of here please!'

She yelled and pleaded for help, but no one was there to save her. She was on her own, the images of Kurama who wasgetting hurthave made noises on her ears till it was over. It was quiet, everything turned black and there was nothing. She was crying, she doesn't and never want to see Kurama hurt, because there was something that made her feel that if he's hurt she too can feel him getting hurt and it was hurting her. (a/n: sort of like a soul bond.)

'Where am I?' she asked herself.

She then opened her eyes and saw Kurama fighting the elder Tugoro, then next in his fox form washimfighting Sensui, all were himfighting and risking his life. She couldn't hold it any longer.

End of Dream

"KURAMA!" She yelled out his name, she found herself in a room wearing a white kimono and was sweating. She was breathing rapidly, it was only a nightmare.

It was only a nightmare, but why would I dream about him getting hurt? She asked herself.

"Botan are you alright?" Cried Koenma, he opened the room and found Botan crying. Keiko, Yukina,Shizuru, Kuwabara, and Genkai came in the room what the commotion was. Botan was crying and nobody except for Koenma and Shizuru knows what she was crying about.

keiko: Why is it Yukina? What happen to her?

yukina: Botan's been depress after that nightmare she had and she isn't herself lately.

keiko: Well Kurama hasn't been sleeping good either.

yukina: Hey shizuru are ok? Do you know what happen to Botan?
