His surprise was to be expected. Even so, seeing the guy speechless and rather caught off guard, was somewhat of a treat for Botan. Yusuke liked to run his mouth and make good use of his teenage attitude but right now, he was completely dumbfounded and Botan could only give a bright laugh to his question. When Yusuke then reached out and asked if he was dead again, she let out a softer chuckle. She hadn't meant to worry him with her sudden and at the moment, unexplained appearance. Still, she would have hoped he wouldn't jump to too many wild conclusions. If he gave her time to explain, she would do just that. "Oh no, you're not dead again." She cheerfully assured the black haired boy with a few flaps of her hand. Botan looked around, not very pleased with their public surroundings.

"Come along, Yusuke, we don't have much time and I'd like to tell you everything in private." She said and motioned for him to follow her. Botan led them down a half a block until they happened across a small narrow alleyway. It wasn't great but it would serve her purpose for the time being. Once away from anyone else, Botan turned to Yusuke, "I wish we could ease you into your new career as Spirit Detective, Yusuke, but there's no time, at least not anymore." She paused. "There have been frequent outbreaks of low level demons in the surrounding areas, normally they'd end up dying on their own but..." Botan sighed. "Some more dangerous ones are also getting through to this world and we're trying to keep them contained."

That was where Yusuke came in, of course.

Botan figured they had to jump right into things. Even though he should be in school, she decided they ought to make good use of the extra time he now had on his hands. "I've got some tools we can use to round them up and deal with them. I also am going to teach you a vital technique that every Spirit Detective needs to know in order to survive and ensure the others in the world are kept safe." Botan said. They clearly couldn't work in such a confining space but Botan just needed relay the basics to the boy before they found a proper training ground for them. "We need to act quick before this gets out of hand." She pointed out to him. "Now do you know of a place that's open enough to train and practice but private enough so we're not interrupted?"
