"It takes two flints to make a fire."

-Louisa May Alcott

With Yuri

On the way, some rich-looking girls her age on bikes passed by her, calling her names and such, but knowing her, Yuri knew she wasn't the type who'd back down easily.

When those girls parked their bikes near a coffee shop, and as they were busily chatting with each other, Serena took a screwdriver and a something that looks like half of a tweezer, then used both to break the lock open and stole the bike.

She then rode the bike, making her faster now, which was a problem.

He followed her until they were at an alleyway, where she met up with two other guys. One looked rich and snobby though looked like he had not a single muscle within his body. The other was probably the aforementioned character's bodyguard and was the total opposite of the other guy.

"So, you're the one who called me, huh. You're not bad, not at all! You're the best prostitute we've had so far. My guys would just love "playing" around with you!" the guy said with a jaunting voice.

'Wait, what?'

Serena sighed. "Yes, that's me. Now, when can I get started?"

The smaller one startled. "Well, we have, ehm, to uh, "experiment" with the people we hire first before actually hiring them." The smaller one said, clasping his hands.

"What do you mean by that?" Serena asked.

"Isn't it obvious?" the guy grinned. "Hey, BB, why don't you test her out?" The guy said.

BB just grunted before pushing Serena to a wall and unzipping his pants.

Yuri has seen enough (u decide what I mean by this), he can't just stand there, and he has this damned nagging feeling that told him to protect her at all costs. 'I can't believe you do these kinds of things; you literal whore.' He thought before marching in to join them.

As he approached them, the smaller one had spotted him.

"And who might you be?" The smaller one gestured for BB to pause, he zipped his pants, hi—nah, I won't mention it.

"Hello there, (not-so gentle) gentlemen. My name is Sakaki Yuri, and will you please slowly put the girl down?"

"Sorry, Sakaki. We can't. And may you leave now? I don't want to let BB here be the one who'll do so."

"Leave me alone, bastard! I wanted this, so back off!" Serena growled towards Yuri. Yuri looked at her. "There are other ways to obtain money than… this. Unless you want," he gagged. "Something else."

"Like I don't know that. I did this for money, not that; I simply don't want to work elsewhere." She said blatantly.

"This is what the girl wants, so bea—"

"Mind your own business, you sorry excuse for a businessman. I'm talking to her, not you." Yuri retorted.

"Eh, this is my business, and my name is Sanders." He said. "And if you won't leave, BB will let you."

"Fine by me, because I'm not leaving without her."

Sanders tsked, "BB, let her go and get him. We can have our pleasure later."

BB literally growled as he let Serena go. He then walked towards Yuri and was about to lift him up when the aforementioned character punched him in the gut.

Which didn't do anything, since again, this is a very muscular guy he's dealing with.

There was only one thing in Yuri's mind, 'F*ck.'

BB hit the right side of his head, hard. Yuri could feel his hearing become numb.

"Yeah, get him, BB!" Sanders cheered. Serena felt a bit of pity for him as he was technically doing this for her.

Still, he got up, and since his first move didn't work, he ran to BB's back where Sanders stood.

"You do know that what whatever you want to do won't work on him, right?" Sanders laughed.

"On him." Yuri reminded, and before he could process what Yuri meant, Yuri kicked his shin, enough to make him fall to the ground and wail in pain.

"What're you waiting for, let's go!" Yuri yelled to Serena.

"Huh, you again. Hmph." She said, sitting down, pouting. "I'm not leaving.

"Tsk." Yuri went towards her then carried her placing her on his shoulder.

Serena pulled his antennae-like hair. "Let me down!"

"Ow, stop! If you didn't act like a four-year-old throwing a tantrum, I wouldn't have done this!" Yuri said.

"BB, get them!" BB did so.

Serena looked at Yuri, then BB. She then knew what was in the former's mind. "DON'T do it." Serena warned. "I know what you're thinking, but he's too bi—"

"BB WILL STOP YOU!" He suddenly yelled. "BB WILL NOT GET WHIPPED!"

But after some deep thinking, Yuri did it anyway. He swiftly jumped above him, getting away.

"Huh, we made it."

"I know a thing or two about escaping, we all do." Yuri said, rolling his eyes. He then ran.

"I SWEAR, I'LL FIND YOU BOTH AND KILL THE PURPLE ONE…!" Sanders can be heard yelling in the background.

'Why the actual Zorc did he call me, "The Purple One"!?' Yuri thought. 'I'm not always purple!'

"So uhh… can you put me down now?"

"No."

"Now?"

"No."

When they got away, Yuri still didn't put her down. People were eyeing them.

"Dude, just put me down!" Serena elbowing his head. "Ow… will you stop?!"

"I will when you put me down."

"If I would, you'd go back."

"Well, what do ya expect!?"

The next few minutes were spent with Serena yelling, shouting, hitting, and punching him.

But unknown to Yuri, Serena knew a thing (a lot, actually) or two about fighting.

She let her head and arms down, just a bit more…

"Why're you slipping?" Yuri asked. "You don't want to fall head-first now, do you?"

Aaannnd, there! She opened his pants saw the back of his underwear, she then grabbed it, then pulled it.

"Nnnggghh!" As she pulled it, the sheer force of his underwear pressing his groin made him fall face-first to the ground. "Heh, I don't backdown easily!" Serena triumphally declared as she pinned him to the ground and pulled his arms behind his back.

"Let. Me. GO!" Yuri yelled furiously.

"Nevah! You wouldn't let me down." She said. "Time for me to return the favor."

"Dang it, woman! I freaking saved you!" he growled. "And this, this is how you return the favor!?"

"Whatever, I have better things to do than wrestle you, like going back." She let him go and walked off. "Ciao."

"And then what, use the money to buy… that?" Yuri said as he got up and dusted himself.

Serena stopped. "What do you mean?"

"Heh, I saw, but I don't care as long as you're not gonna sell yourself as a prostitute. How much was that guy's offer, anyway?" he asked curiously.

"Nothing you can give," she said. "And don't even consider making an offer, you look like a guy who needs their cash."

"Well, since you won't tell me, I'll choose a random amount money and give it to you." He shrugged. "And it'll all be free. No need to f*ck with some guys."

Serena gaped; she didn't believe that he'd actually do this. "Don't, okay? You don't have to. I know a lot of other ways to obtain money. And I don't care if they take my virginity."

'So you haven't been successful before…' Yuri thought.

"Whatever, how about I take you to eat somewhere first? It's my lunch break, after all."

"Heh, you pay for food?" Serena laughed. Yuri raised his one of his brows then sighed, figuring it out. "You dine and dash, don't you?"

Serena smirked. "Yep, I also shoplift or pickpocket if I do need to pay."

Yuri couldn't believe what he heard. "You imbecile."

"Oh yeah?! What're you, a goody-two shoes?" Serena mocked. "Let me show you how it's really done. Come on." Serena invited. "You may decline if you want."

'Great.' Yuri thought. "Of course I'll…" he wanted to, but at the same time… no matter what happened a few minutes ago, he wanted to get to be with her… plus he had to make sure she won't go back. "Nevermind, you sure we won't get caught?"

"Sure! I rarely ever do anyway." Serena saying that made Yuri think, 'What am I getting myself into…?'

She then led him to a small store called, "Noboru Mini Store", and they both entered it.

"Okay, this is a very bad idea! Why'd I even come with you?!" he whispered.

"Relax, just act casual. Not the way you are acting now, because people are staring." She said casually.

And indeed, people were staring. So, he acted casually, as if he had not a single bad intention.

Serena led him to the beverages section where she took a can of soda and stuffed it into one of her jacket's pockets.

She then turned to him. "Your turn." She smiled. "We'll get food later."

Yuri looked at the gigantic refrigerator and took a bottle of juice, and just as Serena had done, he too stuffed it into one of his pockets.

"Juice? You frickin serious?"

"Yeah, unlike you, I actually care a bit about my health."

Serena shook her head, took the juice, put it back, took another can of soda, and stuffed it in his jacket.

"W-What the?"

"Shut up. Now, put your hands into your pockets as if you've done nothing wrong and walk out of the store casually."

"I DID do something wrong!"

"Shhhhhhhhh, let's just go."

Some people looked at them. They just walked away.

Serena smiled as they were nearing the door when…

…Yuzu entered. Serena did a complete U-Turn. "Huh? Where are we going?"

"Change of plans, go around the store first then walk out." Serena spoke.

"Oh, okay. Why, though?"

"Just do it…!" Serena said furiously. "Gee, fine."

But whenever they turned, Yuzu was always somehow there.

Yuri kept on wondering why they kept changing directions, until he saw how Serena avoids Yuzu and how she resembled her so much.

"Ahh, that girl, she resembles you a lot… wait, she your sister?" Yuri he asked.

"Augh, fine. Yeah, she is. And I'm trying to avoid her."

"I thought you were homeless." He chuckled.

"I do have a home, but I prefer not to go there."

"It's fine, if I could, I'd leave my brothers too."

"You have brothers?" Serena asked, shocked. He too had a family…

"THEM! They're the ones I saw stealing some beverages from the freezer through the CCTV cameras!" A guy suddenly yelled.

"You said we weren't gonna get caught!" Yuri yelled.

"That's if we walked out earlier!"

This caught everyone's attention, including Yuzu's.

"Sis? There you are, we've been looking everywhere for you!" Yuzu spoke worriedly.

Serena growled at her, "Tsk, then don't." There was only one thing she could think of right now, run.

She grabbed Yuri's arm and dragged him out of the store. Yuzu was surprised seeing and hearing that.

"C'mon, let's go!" Serena spoke.

"Right, right." He said as he ran with her.

"H-Huh!? Hey, come back!" the security guard yelled. "So long, suck-ass!" Serena laughed.

"Turn here." Serena said as they did so. "Are we gonna go to a hideout of some sort?"

Serena rolled her eyes. "Ugh, yeah. Don't tell anyone, okay!? Or I swear to the Nordic Gods I'll kill you!"

"Don't tell anyone what? That I met you? Or wherever you're taking me?"

"Both!"

…And yeah, that's how Yuri spent his lunch, he didn't even get his food yet, nor does he want to eat right now, anyway.

After some more running, they finally stopped by at Serena's Camp.

Panting, Yuri knew what he did was wrong, but at the same time, it was kinda… fun?

He felt like he wanted to do it again, though, not alone. He wants to do it… with her.

Maybe even get to know her more, know some more of her tricks, and most importantly, have fun. As in to have fun again like when he was young. He wanted to feel his adrenaline rush, like earlier when they were about to walk out and felt weird.

But before any of that, "What is this place?" he asked, still panting.

"My… uhh… home-made… home?" She answered. She had just realized that.

"You made this yourself?" Yuri asked.

"Yeah… its nothing much, but at least I have somewhere to stay other than…" Her face darkened.

"With the rest of your family?"

"Yeah…"

"Why, though? Your sister said something about looking for you." He mentioned.

"We… had an argument." She sighed. "About what?"

She looked at him. "That's a personal question…"

"Yeah… I don't care." As he said that, he heard a meow.

"Nroooow?" Misty mewed, coming out of the "Den". She then saw Yuri.

"Kssss!" She hissed, fur standing up, realizing that there was a stranger.

"Whose demon-possessed fiend is that?" Yuri said, annoyed at the cat not liking him.

"Mine." Serena said, carrying Misty. "And this, 'demon-possessed fiend's name happens to be Misty. Ain't that right, girl?"

Misty purred and headbutted in response.

"Vermin…"

Serena's eyes widened, "ExCUSE me, she is nowhere near (as in 'family of') a vermin!"

"Hmph. It's a cat. It hunts down mice and rats, therefore, I consider it more as a dirty piece of—"

"Language, and no one talks to my Misty like that, and at least she's useful."

"Mrow." Misty mewed proudly, probably even smirking at Yuri. Said person went near her face a blew a raspberry. Misty responded with a scratch on his face.

"You DARE scratch me?! Come here you—" He said, about to pounce on not just the cat, but Serena as she was the one holding it.

Serena pulled Misty away and got ready to run. "Yuri, no!"

What was worse was that he tripped; landing another scar on his face when he fell.

Great. Now Yuri wanted to strangle the thing even more. Knowing that, she ran around the place, still carrying Misty while Yuri chased her.

"Mrrreeeaaaooow!" Misty shrieked.

"I'm gonna KILL it!" Yuri yelled, raising a… middle finger (censor it, I say CENSOR it!) at the cat while chasing them.

"Stop, STOP! Yuri, I SAID STOP!"

After Yuri calmed down, Serena was cleaning the wound and scratch that Misty had caused.

"Ow! Hey…"

"Sigh, if you didn't put your face infront of hers, this wouldn't have happened." She sighed. Misty was peacefully sleeping in loaf form across them as if she did nothing wrong. (And frankly, she didn't, Yuri provoked her)

"So anyway, about your argument with your sisters, what was it about?"

"You don't need to know that."

"But I want to!" Yuri begged. Serena pressed the scratch. "Hey, that hurts!"

"I said you don't need to know." Serena uttered.

"Oh, why'd you wanna work for those thugs earlier, anyway?" Yuri asked curiously. "As I said, there are other ways to get a job."

Serena chuckled. "Well, I had a driver's license…"

"You drive?"

"Yeah, one of sisters taught me, plus I really went to a driving school. Among other things, I don't have my own car."

"Oh."

She then looked down. "I… also dropped out of college, I had a good future together with my sisters…" she paused, "…but I wasn't like them."

"What makes you any different from them? Well, other than the obvious things you do, like getting into fights and such."

"I… well, our dad died to be exact, and, to be honest, I feel like it's my fault." She then explained her story, though not mentioning any specific names.

Yuri felt sad for her, he thought his life's bad enough, but to think this girl would go as far as becoming… eh, that earlier, and wasting it all on things that wouldn't make her situation any easier, if not, it may make it harder.

They spent the rest of the day talking to each other about family matters (Though they never mentioned any names for privacy purposes), their lives in the past, and of course, still argued every now and then.

"Your mother was a gangster!? That's so cool, can I meet her?" Serena asked enthusiastically, Misty though kept staying with her, not leaving.

Yuri thought about it, introducing Serena to his mother, boy would it be fun… too bad she's gone. "You… can't. I'm sorry."

"Is it because of my habits? You afraid that she'll teach me something I shouldn't know?"

"No," he laughed. "Well, yeah, that, and… she's dead…"

"Oh… sorry for your loss." She said, patting his shoulder to comfort him.

"Thanks… she was the best, you know. She looks so kind and forgiving, fuck, she even adopts random strays from the street, but as always, she had something my dad, bros, and I would call, "Dark Side", though that side only shows when she's angry."

Serena laughed, she wished to meet her, ask her about every ridiculous thing that Yuri did so that she can use all she'd say against the purple cabbage.

Wait, what? Nah, she shouldn't think that way. If she'd meet her, she wants to learn tricks, that's all. Yep. Totally not because of Yuri.

They continued talking, not noticing how much time has passed by as long as they were in each other's company. The more they talked, the more they realized how their lives were somewhat the same, save the fact that this girl does some pretty bad things with her life.

He spent so much time, it was night.

They were on a pretty hilarious conversation when Yuri looked up. "…It's NIGHT?!"

Serena tilted her head. "Yeah, haven't you noticed?"

"I f*cking missed a half a day of work!" Yuri said, getting his case and scarf that he took of himself earlier. He looked at his watch (as a reward for their service, Reiji had given the brothers, excluding Yuya, smart watches), it showed 7pm.

"Ohh…"

As he was about to leave, he looked at her.

"What?"

"Nothing… I feel like I don't wanna leave yet."

"Pffffffffffft, it's not like I'll disappear or anything." She laughed. "You can come here anytime."

"I know, but… tch, whatever. My bros are gonna kill me. Bye!"

"Yeah, see you." Yuri ran off after she said that.

It was quiet again.

"Meow?"

"Yeah, quite… unusual, right? I used to love being alone…"

"Mrow."

"Why don't we get some dinner?" She smiled.

Misty nodded in agreement. "Neow!"

As Yuri ran home, the door opened. "Yuri!" It was Yuya.

"Yuya…" Yuri panted.

"Where were you!? We were getting worried!" Yuya exclaimed. "And you look like you ran a mile. C'mon, let's go inside."

When they were inside, Yuri first changed, and they were now having a discussion in the living room.

Yuto gave him some tempura, which he ate happily. "Okay, where'd you go?" Yuto asked sternly. "And why do you have a scratch on your cheek?"

"I was walking through this dark corridor as I ran from you, but then I stumbled upon a pack of cats, startling them. Next thing I knew, they were jumping on me and scratching me."

Yuto sighed, "I'm sure that didn't happen. You always talk about grammar, yet you call a group of cats a pack. It's clowder."

"Mhm yeah I know that…" He said wearily, still eating the tempura.

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you then supposed to get an anti-rabies vaccine? And if you were attacked by a clowder of 'em, then you're supposed to have more scratches or bites on your body." Yugo mentioned.

Yuri just glared at him, signaling that he should shut up, then looked away. "Yeah… you see, I outran them, so I don't need a vaccine."

"You better not need it," Yuto said. "Still, be honest."

'And here I thought Yugo and Yuri were the ones who always fought…' Yuya thought.

Yuri put the plate down. "Fine, I got lost, but I was scratched."

"It looks like someone treated it." Yuto said, eyeing the band-aid.

"Who else? I did that." Yuri said.

Yuto sighed. "Whatever, let's just take our baths and go to sleep." For him, Yuri being here was enough. At least he's home.

They all nodded.
