- - I just thought of something… would the people who carry the zodiac curse be able to eat the animal they are? Like, could Kagura eat pork? Haru eat beef? Hiro eat lamb? Or would they be considered cannibals? They probably just choose to eat them or not… - -


Ichigo looked down at his communicator. "Does it really matter what title we get?" he asked his partner, Kyo, who was looking down at his own communicator. "I mean, saving the world… how would this be relevant--"

"Ha! Damn Yuki doesn't have a title too!!" roared Kyo. "That means… I CAN BEAT HIM TO IT!!"

"You get too excited easily."

"And you talk like an old man!! I'm leaving!" Kyo began stomping off.

"H-hey! Where…?" and Ichigo chased after him.

The Mabudachi Trio was at long last reunited completely once more. Hatori was (basically) babysitting Ayame and Shigure as they recounted their brief experience in the Bishi League.

"Listen to this, Tori-san! Yuki--yes that Yuki!!--Had dearly wanted to be paired with me! Do you want to hear his exact words!??" Ayame asked eagerly.

"No." Hatori stated bluntly while looking over Sohma patient's paperwork. Since Ayame only obeyed Hatori, he immediately stopped.

"I wonder how their doing without us?" Shigure thought out loud, drifting off into space.

"Better, I'm sure."

"Haa-san, you're so cruel."

"I told you you'd get into trouble."

"And you're always right." piped up Ayame.

'Then why didn't you listen?' Hatori thought.

An unexpected visitor came into Shigure's house. It was Tamaki with a few questions for one unlikely person.

"Moi?" asked Ayame, in an emphasized flattered voice. You could almost here the groaning that was in Hatori's head.

"Correct! I would like to know more about your younger brother!! Tell me about your brotherly bond!" Tamaki said, just as dramatic.

"Yes, yes, yes…. well. Yuki loves me. He looks up to me sooo much. I don't like to brag (yes, you do), but without me… Yuki…would be so sad and lonely. Sometimes it can be hard being a good role model."

"I see… do you know what he does in his spare time?" a swarm of the Prince Yuki fan club were looming behind Tamaki, all eager to hear this valuable piece of information.

"I don't know. Go ask him." Ayame stated, crushing the dreams of about twenty girls. They left the room, sulking.

At this moment, you may be wondering what on earth was Trunks doing? Taking the little kitties to his home at Capsule Corp.

"What are you doing back here again?" asked his (past version) mother. He held up the three kitties. "Kitties!! Oh, how cute! Dad will be happy! Well, technically your granddad… younger version. Ug! It's so confusing!!"

---

"Ah! He lives with you, right Shigure-san?" Tamaki said, their conversation continuing.

"Yes! But let me see… no. I've never see what he does." Shigure said strangely happily.

"Do you have some deep, dark secret? Anything??" asked Tamaki, a bit disappointed. There was silence.

"Yes, actually there is." Ayame said, extremely serious. "I thought that you knew about it… I'm sure that you had found out…" Tamaki was definitely excited now. What could it be that he had overlooked? "Yuki… is a girl."

"Whaaaaaat!??" Tamaki was shocked. "Another girl!?? I… did it twice? No wait… thrice!?!" Yuki had come out of nowhere and gave 'his dear brother' a good few smacks.

Hatori was totally uninvolved. 'Just let them be… he'll stop eventually…' but things went from bad to worse. Ayame was flung into the crisp fall air. It was too much for him, so he transformed into the snake.

"Huh?? Where did Ayame-san go?" Tamaki was very confused. It was a bit late, but Hatori found it was his time to step in. he was ready to suppress that part. Then they wouldn't have to tell Akito.

"I'm alright, Tori-san!! Your Ayame will ALWAYS be there!!" Ayame said in his snake form.

"You three have made a big mess." Hatori told Ayame, Shigure and Yuki. Tamaki was back to normal, totally forgetting that part.

"So… Yuki is a girl…" Tamaki pondered. "That's a big problem…"

"I am NOT!!" Yuki said, rather frustrated. "My stupid brother likes to tell lies."

"You mentioned that you made this mistake thrice. Torhu was one. Yuki would've been two. Who's this three?" asked Shigure.

"Why would he tell you? You shouldn't stick your nose in." Hatori told him.

"Fujioka Haruhi." Tamaki said truthfully. Nobody listens to Hatori… his direct truthfully-ness kind of hurt the Mabudachi Trio. Especially Hatori, since he suppressed his memory. "But you can't tell…"

When Tamaki got back to Trunks, he noticed that today……was an absolute waste of time. He had found out no information about Yuki. And only then did he realize he could've just asked Yuki when he had randomly arrived. Well, that's life.

And so, that was how Sohma Yuki won the title of 'Mystery Man'.
