"Urameshi!" Kuwabara yelled. It was after school and Kuwabara ran after Yusuke Urameshi.

"What the hell do you want ?" Yusuke asked tiredly.

"It's think about time I challenge you, you dumb weakling," Kuwabara jeered.

"Shut up before I kick your ass again, Kuwabara," Yusuke said without interest.

"So you're scared," Kuwabara challenged.

"I'm not in the mood to take your stupid crap today, Kuwabara," Yusuke said yawning, "so get lost."

"Fine, Urameshi, I don't wanna waste my time on a chicken like you," Kuwabara replied. "I'd rather check out some hot chicks, anyway, loser."

As Kuwabara walked, away the Spirit Detective dragged himself to the Arcade Center. Yusuke took a seat as he ordered a soda. While waiting for his order he got up and inserted a coin in one of the games. After losing at the game twice, Yusuke became frustrated and kicked at the machine. He went back to his table and began to drink his soda. In the room he observed the other teenagers in it. He saw a boy who appeared to be a little bit younger than him. The boy acted as if the game was the only thing he was good at.

"What an idiot," Yusuke muttered.

As he scanned the room he spotted a girl who looked his age. He smiled at the memory of the sensation he felt when he killed the girl in the woods. He decided to get up and meet her. He smirked at his intentions as he walked towards her.

"Need someone to sit with?" Yusuke asked being irresistible.

"I wouldn't mind," the girl replied with a sigh.

Yusuke sat down beside her. "My name's Yusuke.Urameshi," Yusuke said.

"Mine's Rei Senshido," the girl said to Yusuke.

"So, Rei, you look like your troubled," Yusuke said, starting a conversation.

Rei answered, "Oh it's nothing, really. I guess I'm just a little bit depressed. I have a lot of homework and I don't get along that great with my mom. Sometimes I get tired and I need a place to think."

"Teachers, huh, I don't take their shit. And my mom.she's always drunk," Yusuke told her.

"I'm sorry to hear that," replied Rei.

"You don't have to be sorry for anything," Yusuke said, being used to it.

Rei put her head down on the table and let out a heavy sigh. Yusuke stared at her for a moment. Finally, he blurted out, "Hey, I was gonna see a movie, wanna come?"

Rei put her head up and met Yusuke's gaze. She raised her left brow and gave him a questioning look. "You don't have to take me, you know," Rei informed him.

"Well, I'm not forcing you," Yusuke said as he stood up and started to walk away.

"Wait," Rei called. She got up and walked to Yusuke.

"Alright, I'll go, I need a break anyway," Rei said catching up to Yusuke.
