How hard was it to get a plane ticket to Nevada in the same day? Impossible. Yusuke was ready to shout at the poor woman on the other side of the phone in frustration, he kept telling her that he needed a ticket for any time that day; but she was taking too damn long. He balanced the phone between his ear and shoulder as he went through the apartment, writing down notes and checking things and the like.

"Do you want a one way or two way?" The woman questioned.

"Either one, I don't give a damn," he ground out. Just his luck someone knocked on his door. He let out a particularly colorful Makain curse as he stumbled over a box and nearly twisted his ankle. He growled as the person knocked again and the woman spoke, at the same damn time.

"Do you have any particular price range?"

"No!" He nearly yelled. "Hold your horses!" He yelled as he covered the mouth piece of the phone. He jerked the door open, almost tearing it off his hinges, and opened his mouth to demand what the hell the person wanted.

"I see I have caught you at a bad time," Kurama spoke in the same calm tone as ever. Yusuke snapped his jaw shut and stepped aside, inviting his old friend inside.

"Sorry dude, I'm going through hell getting a god damned plane ticket for….." He trailed off as Kurama held up two plane tickets, the destination Nevada. Yusuke turned off the phone; not even bothering to tell the woman good-bye. Kurama chuckled in amusement.

"How did you know? Dude, you're a life saver!" Yusuke threw up his hands in relief and collapsed onto the couch.

"Botan informed me of the case Koenma is sending you on. You don't happen to speak English, do you?"

"No, I think I slept through that class," Yusuke answered. Why hadn't he thought of that before? Oh yeah, his mind was stuck on the case. Out of all the false rumors about the man, one stood true. Yusuke had a one track mind, literally. Once his mind was set on something nothing else mattered; not even reason.

"She requested I go along for translating purposes and back-up," he said as he sat down in a chair across from Yusuke. Yusuke looked his old friend in the eye for a few moments, neither blinking, before he finally spoke.

"You agreed to because you're bored aren't you?" he grunted.

"Yes," Kurama replied in an even tone. A grin broke across Yusuke's face as he laughed a bit.

"Works for me! So, when do we leave?"

"As soon as you have everything settled," Kurama replied.

"Everything's as settled as it's going to get," Yusuke shrugged as he stood. Keiko probably wouldn't talk to him for a while because of his decision, but he couldn't worry about it right now. He wanted to do this so he was going to; no 'ifs' 'ands' or 'buts'. Yusuke stood up and grabbed his jacket from its heap on the couch. "Let's get going, I have a feeling that the longer we wait the worse the situation will get." Kurama agreed, though didn't voice it. A sense of dread had settled in the pit of his stomach after Botan had spoken with him, it had yet to leave. Unfortunately his intuition was never wrong.
