Blue Light

Chapter Three

Genkai sat down underneath a shack on top of the roof of the building as Koenma stood next to her, his eyes watching the rain fall in front of them. He stood in his full grown form and for some odd reason, his pacifier was missing.

"How did it go with Keiko?" Koenma asked, his eyes never moving from the sky.

Genkai closed her eyes. "Well. She expects nothing."

Koenma signed. "How does he-"

Genkai interrupted Koenma, "He knows... now."

Koenma nodded as he turned he said, "Good." He then slightly turned his head, "What did he say?" He said over his shoulder. His hair fluttered through a brush of wind that breezed across them.

There was silence.

"He said that I should have told him." She finally said.

Koenma sighed, "Maybe you should have."

Genkai growled. "No. He wouldn't have-"

She stopped before she choked.

She wouldn't cry...

"I hope you know what you're doing." Koenma said as he walked away, leaving Genkai to her thoughts and her unshed tears.

Keiko finally tracked down the person she wanted to talk to.

"Yusuke!"

Yusuke turned around, a smirk on his face.

"Oh, you wanna talk to me now?"

Keiko took on a cross look. "No, listen. This is important."

Yusuke narrowed his eyes. "What?"

"You know that lady, your teacher?" She asked.

"Yeah..."

"She came up to me and asked me a very weird question."

Yusuke cocked an eyebrow. "What was it?"

"If I ever dreamed about anyone."

"Did she say anyone in particular?" Yusuke asked.

"No..." Keiko pursed her lips. "But she did say something about a blue heart... or..."

"Look," Yusuke placed his hand on her shoulder. "The hag is always full of it."

Keiko felt her cheeks burning from Yusuke's touch.

For a moment there, Keiko thought her lips were inching towards Yusuke until she felt a brisk of cold air between her and Yusuke...

Huh?

That was when opened her eyes to see that he was gone.

Keiko sighed.

Botan laughed as she watched Kiyoshi fly around the lounge area. It was a good thing no one else was there but her and Kiyoshi.

"Okay. Now, drop." She told the bird.

Kiyoshi came zooming down towards the floor, and with great technique, it zoomed an inch from the floor and then pulled up and flew straight.

"Oh, so it dose have some kind of use."

Botan turned around. She saw Yusuke leaning against the frame of the door to the lounge.

Botan smiled. "What, fly? Have you forgotten he's a bird?"

Yusuke smirked. "I meant the part of doing tricks and getting people to laugh at him, you for instance, and being a clown."

Botan laughed. "No, he just needs time to adjust to people." She paused and then added," Like you, for one."

Yusuke snorted, "I adjust just fine,"

Kiyoshi cawed, flew towards Yusuke, and sat on his shoulder.

"I can see Kiyoshi is lot better at adjusting than you are."

Yusuke snorted but smiled nevertheless.

Suddenly, a loud boom of thunder could be heard. Botan, surprised, grabbed Yusuke's arm as Kiyoshi flew away in the sudden movement of Yusuke's shoulders.

Yusuke laughed. "Its just a little thunder, Botan."

"I was just surprised!" Botan claimed, letting go of Yusuke.

Without any warning, Yusuke snatched Botan up by the waist and started twirling her around.

"YUSUKE URAMESHI!" Botan shouted. "PUT ME DOWN THIS INSTANT!"

After one more spin, Yusuke placed Botan lightly on her feet.

Botan shook her head, trying to stop the spinning of the room. As she did, she was a little light on her feet so she fell towards Yusuke.

"Your such a jerk."

Botan said this with a smile.

"You mean a cute jerk." Yusuke said, catching Botan in his arms.

Botan laughed so warmly and heartily that Yusuke just had to stare at her for the longest time.

Botan, noticing it, looked up into his eyes.

"What?" She asked.

Yusuke blinked and then shook his head.

"Nothing." Yusuke let go of Botan. He stuck his hands in his pockets, turned around, and started to walk off.

"I gotta go." He mumbled.

Botan shouted after him, "Wait! Yusuke, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Yusuke said as he disappeared from sight.

Botan looked at Kiyoshi, who perched on her shoulder, with a confused look.

"Weird." Botan said, looking back at where Yusuke walked off to.

I wonder what's bothering him... Botan thought to herself.

Yusuke walked off, rubbing the back of his neck vigorously from anger.

What the hell was that? Yusuke thought to himself.

"I almost kissed Botan!" Yusuke shouted out loud.

"You almost kissed who?" Said a voice.

Yusuke turned around abruptly, to see a person he'd never seen before but was someone who taught him everything he knew.

"HAG?"

He wasn't sure at first but after a minute or two, he could tell it was her.

Genkai.

Young Genkai, actually.

Her skin was fair and her hair was long and a beautiful shade of pink that shined as if silver was indented into every strand of her hair. Her eyes were that shade of lustrous blue that reflected nothing but effulgence of a deep soul.

Yusuke blinked.

"Hag?" He said again in a small voice.

Genkai's brow twitched. "Your really dense, Yusuke."

Yusuke jumped back, pointing to Genkai. "WHOA! YOU ARE GENKAI!"

"And we're back at the guess-who-I-am game." Genkai said. "My student is dumber than dirt."

Yusuke growled. "Ain't nobody dumber than you..." Yusuke stopped himself at 'grandma'.

"Right." Genkai said smoothly.

"Why are you..." Yusuke waved his hand up and down and added, "Like that?"

"This is me when I was a year older or two than you, and at the peek of my power." Genkai clasped her hands behind her back. "This is also my true form."

Yusuke nodded his head. "So why become a hag?"

"I can stay like this if I wanted to but it takes to much power." Genkai than added before Yusuke said anything else.

"Yusuke." Genkai said with seriousness. "When was the last time you had a dream?"

Yusuke blinked for the second time.

"I don't know. When was the last time I was knocked out for a good amount of time?"

"Yusuke. Be serious."

Yusuke grinned. "You've been spending too much time with Botan, Genkai. You're starting to sound like her."

Genkai didn't say anything.

Yusuke sighed, "Fine. Not for awhile."

Genkai turned around. "Ever here about the Guardian of the Blue Light?"

Yusuke raised a brow, "No."

"The Guardian of the Blue Light is something that is passed down through generation to generation; from one guardian to another."

Genkai waited a beat before beginning again. "The Guardian of the Blue Light is an essential role in the life and power of the Earth itself. The Guardian protects the Blue Light that keeps the Spirit World and the Earth at a balance."

"I thought that the portal was the balance.' Yusuke said.

"In a way but in reality, its just a door that keeps things out."

"So what the point of this Blue Light?"

"Ever hear about Mother Earth?" Genkai said slowly.

"Yeah."

"Blue Light is her heart."

Authors Note: Someone asked me where this story is going. When love comes to people, they can come in different ways. There's the infamous "love-at-first-sight," the usual "I love him but I don't know how to say it" line and vice versa. However, sometimes love comes creeping out of nowhere and when it does... you know. So I ask you to patient for my characters to find themselves as well as each other.

Thanks.
