Dying to meet me?

“Hey, back off!” Yusuke exclaimed, reeling his now clenched fist back before unleashing a spirit energy filled punch directly to the no longer stunned creature’s skull. The impact set the mindless creature hurtling to the opposite end of the swamp before disappearing out of sight. Though what appeared to be a resounding victory soon proved to be anything but. Raising from the mushy surface, came several more of the zombie-like monstrosities. Individually, they were as much a threat to Yusuke as the initial monster– however, in a large group, along with having to fend them off of a semi-defenseless Botan, these were not exactly the cards Yusuke would play with confidence.

Taking a stance in front of his assistant, guarding her from the steadily impending onslaught, Yusuke’s teeth gritted in his jaw, chocolate-hue eyes staring at the insurmountable odds. “Alright, Botan, looks like we have two choices. One, I kill all of their asses until they can’t stand anymore and waste a hell of a lot of time doing so. Or two, we find a way out of this crappy mess and get to the big bad before he sends more stupid monsters after us. What’ll it be because I really need some frickin’ input.”

Botan can’t help but to clamber behind the detective when he shields her from the creatures closing in on them. She peaks over his back, forelocks tickling his shoulder as she stares at the odds. They… they are bad odds. Very bad odds. There is no dancing around this one.

“You know I won’t be any use here!” If she weren’t so cowardly maybe she’d be defeated by that statement. Hey, she’d rather be useless than dead meat! “As much as I would be the highlight of a drinking party with a story on how I ferried myself back to Spirit World, I think we will have to make our retreat for better planning!”

And with that, the emissary is grabbing at Yusuke’s arm, pulling him along as she gets a running start. Then she hops on her oar, making doubly sure that the other has hopped on behind her. Already the muddy beasts made it a point to swat at the two, which prompted Botan to take off at immense speeds.

“Hang on tight!”

                                 ❝ Botan. Good afternoon. ❞           Familiar features bubbling with jubilee and joviality approach, met with the           characteristic apathy of an old soul. Hands masked by the seam lines of a           flowing, Asiatic robe meant more for battle than casual affairs, he inquires           that which much be addressed.                                   ❝ What purpose has Koenma called me for this time? ❞

[amiablewhimsy]

“What, a gal can’t stop by to say hello to an old friend?”

There’s a pause for giddy laughter before she stifles it to clear her throat. Hopping off her oar and patting down the skirt of her Sarayashiki uniform—yes she still wore that old thing. Somehow she thought schoolgirl was synonymous with normal girl.

“...Okay, but Lord Koenma did send me for you.”

It would have been nice to prove him wrong for once, if she were honest. But the fox was too pensive for her own good. 

“I hope you aren’t too busy for a bit of investigating?”

[stubbornasstantei]

“Hey, I don’t remember you complaining when I was thrown to the wolves when I first started. C’mon. Worst that’ll happen is you stepping in mud. At least I hope it’s all mud..” This would probably give the peony yet another to be further neurotic. “But if stepping in crap is the most we gotta worry about then this is gonna be an easy night. Don’t worry yourself to death, Botan.” There was a pun in there somewhere. The reason for such an unconcerned attitude was linked to the fact that the energy he felt previously had not been anything worth giving much pause over.

Though admittedly, once the duo landed upon the soft marsh, even Yusuke found himself a tad uneasy. Though this more than likely was due to the atmosphere rather than the impending danger of the demon within it. Yusuke leaped off the ore, sneakers literally sinking into the earth which elicited an irritated noise from the delinquent. “Crap.. well, at least I wasn’t wrong about the mud part.” Though he wish he had been. “Good thing my heart doesn’t beat anymore, huh?  Listen, Botan, if you don’t wanna be here I get it. You can go back to Pacifier Breath and watch there. But I’m gonna get this asshole.” For added emphasis, Yusuke slammed his fist against the palm of his hand. It was obvious her saw through her laughing facade.

Regrettably, the moment his fist came into contact which said palm, a group of mud coated creatures made their collective presences known by leaping out of the mud. Low groans echoed out of the hollows of their throats as they steadily made their way towards the pair. “Looks like you’re gonna have to think fast on that last one, Botan. Seems someone doesn’t like unexpected guests. Guess we shoulda rang, huh?”

[amiablewhimsy]

She wanted to be quelled by his brutish enthusiasm she did! And it wasn’t that she doubted Yusuke, he was someone who could be relied one! Well… maybe not all the time, but times that it counted.

Botan’s ponytail was tossing here and there, in mock comparison to the ferry girl’s frantic movements. The moment it came to their attention that they had guests, hideous ones at that, the more resolute she was in her choice.

“Well of course I’m not going to abandon you!” She barks, running her mouth despite the urgency that came with these creatures. “It’s my job as your assistant and your friend to—EEEK!!!”

One of the creatures didn’t seem too keen on listening to the emissary babble, they swatted at her oar and followed up by dragging their claws into the thing. Forcing Botan to wobble and eventually slide off. Forcing her to plant her feet into the, hopefully just, mud. She didn’t have any time to voice her disgust over ruining a pair of good shoes, though. She quickly banished the oar in the foes grasp only to have it reappear in her hand.

Then, she gave that no-good-beast a bonk to the head.

The least it did was momentarily stun it, but once it gathered its bearings it shrieked at Botan, causing her to cower closer to her detective companion.

“Yusuke!”

“Right, I suppose you’d have to mature past the age of six to be able to play ‘house’.”

[stubbornasstantei]

“Sorry, I didn’t catch that. Must have something in my ear. You wanna repeat that, Botan?”

[amiablewhimsy]

“Did you run out of Q-tips, silly?” She’s playing with fire.

[amiablewhimsy]

“I see it didn’t take long for the married couple to act up.”

         “So, are you here to take me away now? Did I DO something bad? ”

[amiablewhimsy]

“I’d say it’s more along the lines of a near death experience. Fun day for you and your spandex friends, dear?”

[1nerdygurl]

[amiablewhimsy]

Say Botan, if you kick the bucket in your human form, who takes YOU to Spirit World?

“What a horrible question!” 

“There are plenty of ferry maidens who can do the job! But that won’t stop me from coming back and pummeling you with my oar for letting it happen!”

“WHOOA!” He exclaimed in shock, ill-prepared for her sudden turn. How like Botan to not even be bothered to give so much as a warning before nearly causing him to fall off her oar and become mere red paste on the ground. Had he not taken hold of the end of her oar, he might very well have been. Chocolate hues narrowed into thin slits as he glared at her, wanting nothing more than to wallop her again. Regaining his position behind her, he sat up once again.

“I’ll be sure to look for something that’s not a mermaid then.” His way of saying ‘thanks for nothing’. Yusuke kept his gaze on the ground below now, scanning the area for the faintest sign of demonic energy. Once above what appeared to be a swamp-like area, it was then that Yusuke managed to sense something lurking within. Placing a hand on his assistance shoulder, he gripped gently.

“Hey, Botan.. lower us. I think I can feel something below. Not sure if it’s the guy we’re lookin’ for, but it ain’t human.”

✿- “ ‘ Not human ‘ Sounds as good a start as any!” Yet she stalled, giving the ground below an apprehensive look. “Goodness, if I’d known a lead would find us so soo, I would have mentally prepared myself..” In other words, Botan was as much of a scardy cat as usual.

Nonetheless, the peony dipped her oar and flew them straight towards Yusuke’s instinctual destination. 

Once the pair lowered enough to see light below the treetops, a chill overcame Botan’s spine. It wasn’t that she ever found swamps to hold the slightest bit of interest to her, being as giddy as she was, but this place was just plain unsettling. It seemed that once the canopy was above their heads, light seemed to escape them. 

“If there was ever a place to drown children, this would be it.” She huffed, coming to a stop just above the ground. “Yusuke, this place is so dark and humid. If we don’t die from some ambush in the dark, we could possibly die from heatstroke.” And yet she gives way to some goofy laughter, like a total idiot.

✿- Botan leans in close to the boy, suspiciously, before beaming with excitement. She can hear his music!

“I think I recognize this song...!” Oh, his headphones are in. “Whoopsies! Hehehe...” She waves her hands in front of the boy to get his attention.
