"...line being quoted...."

"Well…" Four and half months ago…

Hiei's left eye never stopped twitching. The idiots were partying at Genkai's for some stupid special human celebration, the name of it he really didn't care, for he was forced to come here by both the detective and the fox. Watching every one get drunk and partying was not his idea of fun. Even his sister was having a drink, that really pissed him off. The fox told him to chill and have a good time and if his sister was having a good time then he should at least try.

Hiei sat at the window to watch his sister closely. She did look like she was enjoying himself, and who was he to try to take that away from her. It would be the least he could do for her. He looked around the room from the detective and the idiot dancing and the detectives girl, the idiots sister, his sister cheering them on, while the fox and hag watch silently. Something was missing but he really didn't care. He closed his eyes and tried to silence every thing out.

It was when his sister started talking is when he was brought back to reality. "Kurama? Have you seen Botan?"

"No, not since earlier, she was here. She might have gone for a walk."

"Oh, okay." Yukina looked down a bit disappointed. Kurama then looked at Hiei and walked towards him.

"No." Hiei said in an icy tone, knowing full well what he was going to ask.

"Well if you find her and bring her back here we will be more than happy to let you leave." Hiei was out the door.

Hiei saw the woman sitting at the edge of cliff about in the middle of the hags forest. Botan was staring off into the setting sun, her hair wasn't in its original ponytail, it was down. She was wearing a pink tank top and jeans.

"Woman." He said loudly as he stood far away from her. he expected her to eep and freak out, but nothing. "Woman!" again nothing she didn't even turn around. Did she loose her hearing? "Look, Kurama sent me to fetch you, your ass needs to go back to the others so I can leave and not have to deal with you humans. Not going to say it again, woman." Hiei eye twitched out of anger as she continued to ignore him. He was just about to go over there and push her off the edge when…

"Ha, Ha!! 'You know what? I don't care about your fucking relationship problems, you can just shove them up your ass for all I care…." She said in a mocking tone.

Hiei's mouth was open in shock, left eye twitching like crazy and his body was shaking out of complete anger. He grabbed her by the back of her shirt and before she could even comprehend what was going on she was thrown back words slamming into a tree.

"Nyaghhhhh!!" she cried out in pain as her back hit hard on the tree trunk. She landed on her knees and hands, coughing. When she hit the tree it felt that all her inside shifted and her ribs were on the verge of breaking. Having a hard time breathing Botan couldn't stop coughing, her face was red and there were tears going down her face.

That's when he noticed the head phones falling off her ears. The sounds coming from it wasn't music but it sounded like one of those human comedians. Obviously she didn't hear him and was just quoting a line.

Oh … He thought coolly, he didn't regret what he did but he could have done it a bit more gently, she did have a human body after all. She continued to cough heavily, gasping for air, when her body calmed down she looked up to see what had happened. Her face was red and wet from tears and coughed up saliva, she tried to wipe off with her arm.

"…Hiei…-cough-…?" She looked up at him, his dangerous unreadable face looked back at her.

"You ignored me when I called you."

"…-cough- you… you threw…-cough- …me against a tree…cuz… I couldn't hear you –cough- ?"

"You were cussing at me" He wasn't going to say that he might have made a mistake.

"…What? …I don't cuss? –cough-"

" Direct quote, …"Ha, Ha!! 'You know what? I don't care about your fucking relationship problems, you can just shove them up your ass for all I care!!'"

"-Cough- … hey that's … a line from foamy…" She said the 'foamy' slowly as it just hit her at what happened, "Ooo… I s-said that out loud… -cough- I-I didn't realize… I was listening to -cough- my ipod… I get caught up with listening to Foamy the squirrel… I a-am –cough- I am really sorry about that Hiei." She said wiping her eyes and mouth again.

Hiei looked at her, She was sorry? He threw her into a tree! She wasn't at all a bit upset with him? She looked up at him with a smile. Before Hiei could think about saying He was sorry he changed the conversation in his head.

"What is, dare I ask, Foamy the squirrel?" He tried to sound interested, the least he could do.

"I-It's a cartoon squirrel… who shares his opinion on the world, he… he thinks all humans are idiots… -cough-… who should die horrible death, and…he rants about every thing that bugs him through explicate cussing and insults." She told him , she was now able to speak a bit normal, but her red face and shaking body wasn't returning to normal. She tried to get up, holding on to the tree to help her up but failed miserably as she fell back down, rubbing her back. Hiei didn't know why he did it, but he did. He grabbed her by the arm and waist and helped her on her feet. He held on to her to help her with her balance.

"Sounds interesting." He was telling the truth. "Not something I would think you would be interested in."

"Yeah…" She tried to smile but failed. She leaned on to him to try to stop the pain in her back. She cringed and held on to him tightly.

"You always healing everyone, why aren't you healing yourself?" Hiei asked her. She looked at him as if she was the stupidest girl for not think that.

"Well I've never really done that before." She held her hand out letting her spirit energy spread through her fingers and pressed it against her back. Her healing energy flowed through her back, to her surprise it healed quickly, better than if she would have healed any one else. She instantly felt better and smiled at Hiei. He looked at her to make sure she was ok. "Better. Thank you Hiei." She blushed and pulled away from him, and he stepped back giving her, her space. "Next time you want to throw me could you do it more nicely? Why are you here anyways?"

"...The others wanted to know where you were." He told her, next time, possibly…

"Lemme guess Kurama said you can leave if you bring me back?" He gave her a nod. "Hm… I really don't want to go back."

"Why is that?" This was not like the woman. She usually was all for the partying. And what was she complaining about, she's not being forced to be there anyways.

"I'm not into drinking." She said that not in her usual tone. Hiei didn't believe that that was the main reason, but he wasn't too interested to care.

Botan looked up at the sky. She really didn't feel like interacting with the others but Hiei was different. "Hey Hiei. Since you and I don't really want to be here do you want come over? If your interested in the foamy the squirrel, I have some of the DVDs. There is a store near my apartment we could get some ice-cream. Kurama told me that its one of your favorites."

Hiei looked at her, and nodded. He was ashamed to say it but if there was situation that involved with ice-cream he was in. And this would be much better than being stuck at the temple or patrolling the demon border, protecting stupid humans. Botan smiled and pulled out her phone.

"I'll just text Kurama I was on my way home when you found me." It barely took her a half a minute to send the message. She put away her phone and summoned her oar.

"Well Hiei, hop on!!" With a 'hn' he did.


They flew in silence for about half the ride there. Botan could handle the silence any more.

"Hiei, why did you through me?"

"…"

"Yeah, that is a stupid question, you thought I was cussing at you, I too would be upset. But couldn't you have tapped on my shoulder or even send me a telepathic message?" she pointed to her temple as she looked at him.

"…" Hiei didn't think about that, he let his annoyance get the best of him. He was angry at himself for that.

"Hm… alright. Well… how is the um… the demon patrolling?"

Hiei gave a heavy sigh. "An insulting waste of my time. Humans get stupider every week, I've wiped the minds of some of the same people. It is very irritating."

"Oh, I'm sorry Hiei. That does sound very irritating. Must be a real murder having that job."

"Your job isn't too pleasant ether."

"No, no its not." She looked away and left it at that. They finished their trip in silence. He waited outside the store while she got two tubs of ice-cream, one cookie dough and chocolate fudge. He held the ice-cream as she unlocked her apartment door.

"If you could put those on the counter, I'll get some of the dvds started and I'll get you a bowl."

He did what she said. This was the first time he had ever been in her apartment, in fact he didn't think any one had been in here. The living room was not what he expect the ferry girls would be. He expected it to be pink and happy. It was average clean clean, off white colored walls with posters of rock bands and movies. She had a huge red couch with a few stuffed animals. The table in front of it had a few magazines and a picture of the whole group him included. Her kitchen was small but she did have a big refrigerator. He watched Botan put in a dvd and turn on her good sized tv. The tv was surrounded by glass entertainment center filled with movies and cds. She went to the kitchen and opened a draw full of silverware. "Hiei do you just want a spoon and you can pick out a witch one you want?" She pointed to the ice-cream. Hiei took the spoon and the chocolate fudge ice-cream and sat on the couch. Botan grabbed a bowl and spooned out a few scoops of the cookie dough and put the rest of it in the freezer. She sat down next to him and pressed the play button on the remote.

"Well this is Foamy, this was what I was listening to, you might like it."

Hiei looked at the screen, had a weirdly drawn squirrel who was talking with a very annoying voices.

"…Neurotically Yours: Episode # 023: Foamy's Rant
There are certain types of people in this world that just piss me off to no end. The type of people who come up to you and ask you for advice, and then when you give them advice they don't take the advice. They just come back to you a week later and they're like "I can't believe how everything turned out so wrong"
You wanna no why everything turned out so wrong? Because you didn't take my advice and you're fucking stupid. That's what went wrong, you didn't listen to me. I know all…( I don't feel like putting the whole episode on.)

Hiei smirked at this, "I have been there."

Botan watched Hiei, he seemed to be enjoying himself watching this.

"…I also dislike people who all they do is talk about their problems with their insignificant other... you know what I don't care about your fucking relationship problems, you can just shove them up your ass for all I care! Nobody wants to hear about how your girlfriend doesn't like you or how your boyfriend is ignoring you... Nobody cares! It only pertains to your own little world, which in the grand scheme of things is minute and pathetic and nobody ever really ever wants to hear it. Shut your mouth, choke on your food, and die!"

"That's where you got the line from earlier." Hiei said. Botan nodded.

"So do you like it?" Hiei nodded a yes, while he was eating his ice-cream. They spent a few hours watching more of the show. Botan had never really heard Hiei chuckle up close but he did a lot of it. She was glad he was enjoying himself and so was she. As the minutes passed Botan felt her self get tired, her eyes were drooping. He looked at her as he felt her forehead drop on his shoulder. She was sleeping on him and he felt it was time to leave. He picked her up and headed to her room where he placed her on her bed. That's when he noticed her, she had a tear drop from her sleeping eye. He knew something was going on with her but its not like he was going to do anything about it. He wiped the tear away and then left out her window.


Hiei was up in his tree, pondering of the night before. He had hurt one of the groups closest friend due to his lack of self control over his anger. He hurt her. She was in pain and she was crying, yet she wasn't angry with him. It took her almost five minutes to even breath and she was nearly choking on her own saliva. He could have killed her. But she wasn't the least bit angry with him? She told him that she was sorry for angering Him. Why? Not only that but she invited him to her home, to have ice-cream and watch the television with her. Was she really that stupid. Hiei remembered how she truly was not her self. She was not happy even though she smiled. He didn't think it was because he threw against a tree, something was wrong. When he set her on her bed so she could sleep, why he did that he really did not know, a tear had rolled down her cheek. But why should he worry about it? And why did he set her on her bed anyways? Hiei guess maybe it was because she was his sisters best friend and maybe because he might possible have felt guilty for hurting her. Hiei decided to stop thinking about it. He had to work, save humans and erase their minds, what fun.

After a long day of protecting the god damned helpless stupid humans, Hiei sat down on his favorite tree, in the human park. He didn't feel like staying in demon world, one thing about human world was parts of it were tolerably peaceful and semi quiet. A few of the human kids were playing around his tree. He didn't entirely mind, they weren't a threat to him. He closed his eyes, to try to get some sleep until he heard her voice.

"Um… Hiei?" Hiei opened his eyes to see Botan looking at him from her oar. Her eyes were a bit puffy and red. Obviously she had been crying. "Can I talk to you?" She looked a bit terrible and this angered him. He didn't like to see her cry, but he really wasn't the person to handle this type of thing.

"Why the fuck me?" He asked her coldly. She had Yukina and Kurama, hell even Kuwabara.

"Well, I don't know… you… seem like the person to go, every one else would be all worried and all I need is the actual advice. And with my problem I feel you are the one to ask."

"And that would be?"

"Dealing with stupid humans, selfish humans who don't even deserve to live." A tear fell from her eye again. Hiei sighed and sat up to let her sit on the tree with him. If he helped her then perhaps they could get back to their hate each other relationship or at least she would leave. She sat next to him. She closed her eyes and more tears fell.

"Its my job, I don't think I can handle it anymore, and Koenma said I'll get over it but I cant. I've ferried 2,306 souls to the after life. Koenma and the others think that its an easy job, its not." She didn't care if Hiei was actually listening she just want to say what was bugging her. "You kill people, that in itself would tear me apart but do you know how fucking hard it is tell a good person who has never committed any crime or done anything bad had died because some ass hole has decided to drink and runs you over? Or telling a child that the can never speak to their parents again? Or tell an unborn spirit that they will never know what its like to walk or even feel love? That's where I hate humans, greedy fucked up humans… who have no respect for life, their greedy and wont take responsibility." She was full on sobbing. "I've sent 432 unborn spirits to an afterlife, and a few days ago… theres a fucking slut who I've sent her fifth child to… she think there's no consequence in get abortions. She's killing children who haven't even come into this world,… all because she doesn't want to deal with the consequences. I hate humans for this… they don't care, they don't care that they destroy things. They… I hate them…i hate them..." She wasn't looking at him, tears were streaming down her face. Hiei looked at her, he too was enraged. He didn't know that human killed their young, he's killed demons in his world for doing so. She was really hurt by this, and Koenma was fucked up for not seeing this.

"Woman, you… you are a kind and gentle person, you should not be dealing in death." She looked up at him and he continued. " You continue like this you will lose that, you have done enough and you should tell the baby you quit, live an actual life, you deserve it."

She wiped the tears off her face, "you think so?" He nodded and got up and took off his head band. His eye glowed

"What does that other woman look like?"

"She 27 years, blond hair blue eyes. She lives a few houses down from Kurama."

"What is her name?"

"Rin"

"I found her." He jumped down from the tree and turned to the tree. "Are you coming?" she sniffed, summoned her oar and followed him.

They saw the girl outside a club talking to some guy away from all the other who were standing in line. She apparently gave him her number. Botan looked at Hiei who was glaring at the slut. "You wanted my advice, go over there and give her what she deserves."

"I thought you wanted me to stay kind and gentle."

"Some people don't deserve that from you."

Botan looked at him and agreed. Botan walked up to the woman as the man was about to leave. The Rin girl looked at Botan and sneered a 'what the hell do you want bitch?'

Botan let all her anger boil over and full on punched the slut in the face. Her head hit the brick way she was standing by and she was instantly out cold. The man turned around when he heard the hit. He turned around.

"Bitch, what the fuck?" He lifted his hand and was about to hit Botan until Hiei intervened and grabbed the mans wrist.

"I suggest you leave, now." Hiei said very coolly and dangerously.

"You little punk you better get off of me. That fucking bitch needs to… Aughhh!!" Hiei's hand squeezed tightly apparently breaking the mans arm

"I said leave." He threw the man down and the man ran off. Hiei turned around and crotched down to the unconscious whore.

"What are you doing?" Botan asked. Hiei's hand was surrounded in a flame.

"I'm going to make it so she never conceives again." He put his hand on her lower stomach and his energy spread through her. He got up and turned to Botan who was looking at him. She didnt feel a bit sorry for the girl, and she thank Hiei. He tilted he head to the side to motion for them to start walking. They walked in the forest in silence.

"Hiei could you come with me some time to spirit world?"

"Why?"

"I'm going to quit, I'm taking your advice, and if your there Koenma will most likely take me seriously. You don't have to say anything, jut the support would be nice."

"What do I get out of this?"

"What do you want?"

"…."

"How about a year supply of… um…. Free ice-cream and I wont come to you for a problem for a long time"

Hiei thought about that for a second. It couldn't hurt to be there with her for a few minutes. And free ice-cream!

"Hn. Fine!" he wasn't expecting for her to hug him but she did. Her arm were around his neck holding him tightly. He felt a tear drop on his neck.

" Thank you Hiei, thank you for every thing.."

"Hn." His hand went to her around her, hugging her back.

Yeah i hope you liked it...
