Backwards Affairs
Chapter 2: The Ogre Is Invited
By Miko Jaganshi

A very puzzled look came over Kuwabara's face as he read the top of the piece of paper. "Let see...me? Invited to a..." he paused. "Special occasion? Wow...I am important.."
"Important?" his elder sister Shizuru waltzed by the open doorway with a newly lit cigarette in her mouth. "Ha! They probably need some klutz to hand out drinks!" she guffawed and tapped the end of her cigarette. Ashes fell to the floor.
He jumped up. "Hey watch it, sis!" He clenched his fists to keep from doing something against his code of honor. "Baka ona." He glanced around to make sure he was alone. (Good..some peace and quiet...) He realized. (Whoa. This could be really important. I gotta see if Urameshi knows about this.)
"Im at Urameshis!! Shizuru, tell mom, okay?" he grabbed his jacket and ran out the door, and not to his sister's surprise, the invitation fell out of his pocket.
"Wait, baby bro! You dropped your invitation!!" she yelled following him waving the piece of paper in one hand, a cigarette in the other.
