same disclaimers apply. A/N Vicki might seem OOC compared to Shuiichi, but he already has a establish life of perfection. Vicki is like an out let that allows him to be Youko with out the tail and ears.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What as that all about?" I ask Vicki straining my neck to look up at her because those shoes make her so tall.

"Nothing, I was just having a little fun, plus you are always saying that I should start acting like my old self more, so I thought....."

"So you thought it would be a good idea to attract every young ningen male with all those overtly sexual gestures"

"Ah they may have been sexual, but you got to admit they were very youko like." she says with a wink.

"Yes a little too much" I look over my shoulder "Vicki, I am not sure how fast you can run in heels but we are about to find out" I grab her hand and start running. The hormonily charged boys were closing in I had to think quickly. I turned down an alley and they follow close behind. "Oh yeah this is fun" I yell back sarcasticly to her. As she fought to stay on her feet as I pulled her down the dimmly lit trash filled alley way. I see a open door I run in yank her in and slam it close, I hear the lock mechanisim engage but think nothing of it I will just find another way out later. It was just me and Vicki in here so I had nothing to worry about. I am fine, but Vicki never having the chance to actual do a pactice run in high heels is somewhat out of breath. She rests against the door slide down to the floor and begain taking off those acursed heels.

"I am never,I repeat I am never going to flirt with that many boys while wearing heels" she huffs as she toss her shoes and begins to rub her tired arches

"Hn, I see you have learned your lesson fox." I say with a content smile

"Sure have, next time I am wearing sneakers. Man, they are fast." she say wiping the small beads of sweat her brow as she lays her head back against the heavy metal door smiling.

My smile fades, I instantly look around for a empty wall so I would have plenty space to bang my head repeatly against for actually thinking this female version of reincarnation of a fox spirit had learn a lesson. I couldn't find a single free spot. All I did see were a lot of boxes, we are in some type of storeroom. I could make out some letters on the boxes. One box had 'K CHO'. On another box 'NE MI. Yet another box showed the letters 'OCOLA'. I was tring to decifer the chopped up message when Vicki chime in.

"Do you smell that Hiei" she says looking at me carefull keeping her head as still as possible so the fleeting smell could pass her nose once more. "I smell..."

I try and put the letter together ' MIK CHOCOLA' What in the world is Mik and I have no godly idea what Choc....

"...Chocolate" she screams jumping up and ripping open the frist box her hand touchs. I know I love chocolate but for some reason have this feeling that I really shouldn't be in the same room with Vicki when she comsumes large amouts of it ,but I can't remember why. I shrug my shoulders and join in on the binge. Things were going along great I just finshing eating about ten bars of chocolate with nuts now I am eating some white chocolate which kind of that the same as brown but a lot lighter. All of a sudden I feel something sticky oozing down my neck and back. A single trail of the slow flowing substance rolls down the middle of my forehead and over my nose. I lick the tip of my nose. At that very moment, I just remembered why I should have found an exscape route eariler. I slowing spin around praying to Irani that .... Why do I even ask that goddess for help she has the sickest humor of them all. Standing behind me with a empty chocolate syrup can and rose in hand ready to perice a other one openis a pointy ear twitching, golden eye gleaming , fluffy tail wagging Youko. "Eeeeeekkkkk" I scream, bit to much like a girl for my liking. I jump do a 180 in midair land and take off running.

"Hiei" he calls to my back" You really should stop running"

"Never" I yell back weaving in and out of boxes upon boxes of that deliciously dangerous sweet stuff. I find some stairs, I race to the top and across the metal bridge to the middle so I could have a birds eye view of the whole situation. I look down and see Youko Kurama just standing there, he looks up and smiles at me. He starts walk towards the stairs I just climbed. His figure is hidden behind some boxs but I can still see his tail slowly moving from side to side, as if he is in deep concentration. What in the world is he doing? I stand on the railing hoping the added hieght would help me see what was going on behind the tower of brown and white boxes, I strecth my neck risk falling and see.....not a damn thing. He turns around and starts walking towards the other set of steps. I can hear the steady sound of his foot steps as he meanders up the steal. I wait until he is half way up before I turn to run down the other side I look back and notice his is pace is a bit slower but his smile has gotten a lot wider as if he knows something. I quckly turn back around just in time to see a huge wall of thorns blocking my path. "Shit" I mumble under my breath as I skid to a stop. Unforuately not soon enough I get myself somewhat tangled in the small torn they are not poision they are just bothersome I turn up my heat to burn my out of their grasp. For a quick moment I thought about just burning my way though the wall of vegatation but then I notice how quickly it vines grew back and quickly changed my mind.

He tilts his head to the side and asks with mocking concern "What wrong, my chocolate coated Fire demon, did your plans of exscape fail you"

True my options were some what limited, who was I kidding I had two options 1) Face the Youko or 2) Jump for it. Either way I pretty much screwed. I trun around look over the side of the narrow metal bridge and then I jump over the railing. I land squarely on a tall tower of boxes. Not to bad I boast to myself until the tiny safe haven I was standing begins to sway. I try my best to steady it, my arms are sticking out, waving maddly the column sways left I lean right. It sways to the right I lean to left. The invetiable happens it falls. I crash the ground.

"Hiei" is the last thing I heard Kurama yells before the runs down the stairs to check on me. I open my eyes briefly and see kitsune standing above me. "I told you not to run, fire baby"

"Baka, don't call me that" I hissed.

He picks me up like a sack of potatoes and tosses me over his shoulders. I am too tired, too scracthed up, and too covered with chocolate to fight back.
