Chapter 1: Street Brawl

(Street in the middle of town)

Hiei: Quite the day eh boys.

Yusuke: No doubt, dawg. We tore them streets up.

Kuwabara: Yeah. We're running low on gas. Let's pull into a station and I'll grab us a few beers. (Pulls jeep into the gas station) Be back.

(Capulet's Mercedes pulls in)

Hiei: The Capulets, how I despise them, they deserve nothing more than to rot in the pits of hell.

Yusuke: Agreed. But that is not our battle.

Hiei: Are you frightened to face them? Come now. Be a man.

Yusuke: As long as I draw breath I shall fight for the honor of the Montagues.

Hiei: Truly.

(Capulet Toguro flicks them off)

Yusuke: Look at that (gestures towards Toguro) he just flicked us off.

Hiei: Oh really. (Walks over to Toguro:) Do you flick us off?

Toguro: Of course not. I flick someone off just not you.

Hiei: I doubt that. Let's decide who has more right to live (Draws Katana).

Toguro: As you wish.

Kuwabara: Whoa! Hold it. Come on. Let's not fight. This is a time of peace for both our houses.

(Enter Sakyo, Botan's cousin.)

Sakyo: What's this? You dare to draw on my kinsmen. Death to all Montagues (Pulls out a gun).

Hiei: SWORD OF THE DARKNESS FLAME!

Yusuke: SPIRIT GUN!

Kuwabara: SPIRIT SWORD!

(Gunshots, burning of clothes and blood spilling. People screaming)

(Enter Suzaku Capulet, Lady Capulet, Risho Montague and Lady Montague)

Suzaku: What is this? A brawl? Give me my weapon.

Lady Capulet: No. Do not fight. You are old and unhealthy.

Risho: You wretched Suzaku-Let go of me!

Lady Montague: Abstain from this battle unless you want an early grave.

(Enter Prince Koenma and servants)

Koenma: Hold my subjects. I'm here to settle this dispute. Montague and Capulet, again you disturb the otherwise peaceful life style of our fair city. Be warned, should this happen again, you all shall suffer death's sting.

Risho: Who started this?

Kuwabara: In truth dear uncle, the Capulet's raised the first insult. We only retaliated in the one way we knew how. My apologies.

Lady Montague: Oh, where is Kurama? Have you seen him at all today?

Kuwabara: Ma'am, about an hour before the sun came up, he was at the sycamore grove. I saw him there and called to him but he answered not.

Risho: He has been seen there for many a day. I fear that he carries a burden. The cause of which, I do not know.

Kuwabara: Oh.wait.here he comes!

(Enter Kurama looking depressed)

Kuwabara: Hey cuz!

Kurama: Is the day still early?

Kuwabara: It's about 9:00.

Kurama: It seems longer when you're disheartened.

Kuwabara: What's your trauma?

Kurama: A dilemma you cannot begin to understand.

Kuwabara: Girl trouble?

Kurama: Indeed.

Kuwabara: Is she pretty?

Kurama: The fairest of the fair. I assure you, there is none more beautiful. Alas, she is a nun and I shall not have her.

Kuwabara: Ouch.

Kurama: Yes. Love is a harsh master. I no longer feel the joy I once did.

Kuwabara: You'll get over it.

Kurama: One can only hope.

Not bad huh. For those of you who don't know, I'm pulling Shakespeare here and creating a modern Romeo and Juliet using Yu Yu Hakusho characters. I do not own these characters, only the idea. Review please.
