Chapter 32: Kawaii

Botan really wasn't sure why Koenma would entrust her with such a thing. She also wasn't sure why he would not tell her what it is or does, and keep it in a small dark box. He knew how curious she was, he should have known that she'd look in the box.

But when she did, all she saw was a golden chain with 'subdue' written in kanji. Her eyebrows furrowed, what on Earth could a deity need this force? She had heard that the great Son Goku already had something to subdue he great powers… what could this petty trinket do?

While musing over her questions, trinket loosely gripped in her hands, she bumped into a person. Wait… she was walking in the middle of nowhere… how could she bump into someone… unless…

"What the hell are you doing out here?" A haughty voice asked her as she slowly got up. She rubbed her in-pain back, grumbling about brick walls. "Well?" The blond haired man asked as the rest of his group stopped walking and turned around.

"I'm looking for Son Goku." Botan said looking at each of the four men's faces. She inwardly flinched, they all this sort of sickness in their eyes. Like Hiei had whenever he was told to tell Yukina the truth. Suddenly though, a very… short… brunette stepped towards Botan and she raised an eyebrow.

"Yes?" He asked, smiling cheerfully. Botan's eyebrow (that was raised) twitched and lunged forward hugging the deity tightly.

"Koenma-sama never told me that the great Son Goku was such a cute little boy!" Botan continued to gush, gaining a stuttering, blushing Goku. Finally though, he pushed her away and she rubbed the back of her head sheepishly.

"Sorry about that… it's a weakness…anyway, Koenma-sama told me to give this to Son Goku." Botan held out the trinket to the still blushing Goku who grabbed it.

"Uh… what is it?" He asked as Botan shrugged.

"It's probably a back-up power limiter. I wouldn't know, Koenma-sama never tells me things. It was very nice to meet you Son Goku, even if you do look like a child." Botan smiled and leaned down to kiss him on the cheek.

"Sayonara!" And with that, she summoned her oar and took off for Spirit World.
