Oh my gosh, I am so sorry it took me so long to update! You all must hate me now ." I also apologize that this isn't even much of a long chapter...I meant to get it out on the 10th, and have chapter eight out on the 16th, but I got caught up in school work! SORRY!

Soyuko and Siyam

Siyam looked at her son, they were on an airplane, and they were on their way to America. They wouldn't be bound by that damned law any more. They wouldn't go by Siyam and Soyuko any more; they'd be Keno and Haiku.

It would be a change for her son to be called Keno from now on, and pretend he hadn't framed his sister for murder. But she was used to it. She'd done it before. How else would she have gotten rid of Botan's father, Tsuya?

Botan

Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can't shut my mouth.

No one understood her because she wouldn't let them, "Why, Hiei...why...?" She broke down and sobbed into the ground. She only ran a couple blocks and hid in an alley. She was hiding behind a couple boxes as she cried. "Why did dad have to go away?" She whispered to herself. She remembered when her mother came home with another man and a baby in her arms.

(Flash back)

"Brat! Get up. We're leaving!" The three year old botan sat up in her bed, "Mommy? Where's daddy?" She didn't get an answer she was only slapped. "Don't you call me that." Botan rubbed her cheek and bowed her head. "Sorry ma'am."

"Get up bitch. We're leaving now." Botan never understood why her mother had brought her with them as they fled the country. And she never understood why her dad couldn't come.

(End flash back)

Till the smoke clears out and my high burn out
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.

"Where did you go dad? Tsuya?" She felt the tears rolling down her face, she could hear them hit the ground, and they didn't make the tiny splash that they should have though. They sounded like marbles hitting the ground. Truth is her dad was part koorime, like Hiei. Only her dad wasn't a forbidden child. He had been welcomed into their village with open arms. His father was a winter demon. So it wasn't like Hiei. Hiei being part fire demon was too dangerous. She just felt guiltier at that thought.

Soon as a verse starts I eat it at MC's heart
what is he thinking? I'ma not to go against me, smart.
And its absurd how people hang on every word.

She felt more tear gems fall down her face, she continued to cry, until she passed out from exhaustion and hunger. There was almost a hundred little gems surrounding her.

I'll probably never get the props I feel I ever deserve
But I'll never be served my spot is forever reserved
If I ever leave earth that would be the death of me first.

Hiei, yukina, Keiko and yusuke the next day

"Damn it where is she!" Hiei growled and punched a wall. They'd been looking all morning for Botan. She hadn't come back the previous night. "Calm down Hiei. God if you're so worried just use your damn jagan to find her!" Yusuke was irritated with him now. "I've tried that. It doesn't work baka." He growled again and looked down an alley. If the sun hadn't come out for behind the clouds he would not have seen the little gems scattered in the snow.

Cause in my heart of hearts I know nothing could ever be worse.
That's why I'm clever when I put together every verse
My thoughts are sporadic, I act like I'm an addict
I rap like I'm addicted to smack like I'm Kim Mathers.

"What are those?" Yukina approached them; she picked up the closest one and examined it. "These are tear gems. There's another koorime here?" Hiei walked over and picked one up too. "Must be." They turned and left the alley, continuing their search for Botan. Not noticing the snow moving.

Botan

She heard voices, "...these are tear gems. There's another koorime here?" She recognized it as Yukina, "Must be." Her breath caught in her throat. That was Hiei. She didn't move until she was sure they were gone. She sat up and a few inches of snow fell off her. "That was so close." She didn't notice Keiko walk towards her. "Botan?"

But I don't want to go forth and back in constant battles
The fact is I would rather sit back and bomb some rappers.

She froze. Uh-oh busted. She turned to see Keiko. "Botan, why are you surrounded by tear gems. You're human not koorime." Botan sighed. "Might as well tell you. Just so long as it's only you I tell and no one else is listening in." Keiko nodded, "Hiei, Yukina and Yusuke are looking a couple blocks away." Botan took a deep breath and sighed. "Okay. But you have to promise not to tell anyone. Okay? That means Hiei and Yukina especially." Keiko nodded, "I promise."

So this is like a full blown attack I'm launching at them
The track is on some battling raps who want some static
Cause I don't really think that the fact that I'm Slim matters
A plaque of platinum status is whack if I'm not the baddest.

"Okay well, these tear gems are mine. You remember how we met when we were almost four rights? Well, what I didn't tell you then, because I didn't even know it, was my mother framed my father for murder because she found out he wasn't human. He was part koorime and part winter demon." Keiko gasped, but she didn't interrupt, "See he wasn't hated by the koorimes though. He and his father had both been welcomed into the koorime's village, because they were winter demons, so they dealt with ice, snow, that kind of stuff. The thing is I feel so guilty." Botan took a deep breath again, "My father and his father were welcomed into the village, but Hiei's father wasn't. Even I was allowed to go there when I was born, but Hiei wasn't."

Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can't shut my mouth.

Keiko put her arm around botan's shoulder. "It's not your fault though. You were just a baby." "So was he. But my mother being a human wasn't able to come to the village with us, my dad and I, so she became jealous and took my father out of the picture when I was three. Hoping I'd forget who I was, that I had plenty of people just like me who would have loved me. Until I met Hiei and Yukina it worked." Keiko looked confused, "But surely you must've wondered why you cried gems?" Botan shook her head, "I was told that I was just a freak. My mother took the gems and sold them to support her, soyuko and her new husband, soyuko's father."

Till the smoke clears out and my high burns out
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.
