Chapter 3:
Bounty on Her Head
Yusuke, Kuwabara and Boton sat in the restraint, awaiting there orders. "I don't know where she could be." Yusuke said. Boton chuckled and placed her hand on his shoulder. "And what's so funny may I just ask?" "Oh Yusuke, Ruto is resting at Kurama's as we speak!" "What? And you didn't tell me? No wonder's why we couldn't find her." The waitress arrived and served them there orders. "Well," Kuwabara began, "Let's pay her a visit."
A while later Yusuke and Kuwabara knocked on Kurama's door. "Just a minute!" sprung Kurama's voice. Kurama opened the door and invited them in. "So, where's Ruto at?" Yusuke asked. Kurama grew a sweat drop as he told them. "She, she has escaped." "She what?" both Yusuke and Kuwabara yelled. Kurama's little smile turned into a frown. "Yes, she escaped. I was searching for her for some time now, but no luck so far." Yusuke ran out the door, with Kuwabara and Kurama fallowing. "Urameshi! Where are you going in such a hurry?" "I'm going to find Ruto."
Through the town ran Yusuke, Kuwabara and Kurama. Sadly there was no show of Ruto. "What are we going to do? Koenma's going to kill me." Yusuke sat against an alley wall as Kurama and Kuwabara stood, wondering where she could be. Just then, Kuwabara noticed her. "HEY! There she is!" Yusuke rose to his feet and looked around until he too spotted her. "Hey, Kuwabara, I think you're right! Let's go get her!" Together they ran towards her. She noticed them and began running. It was a long chase until they trapped her in an alley way. As they approached her, she withdrawed two throwing stars. "Go away! I am warning you!" Ruto told them. "Sorry babe, but you got to come with us." Yusuke said. As he finished, she tossed her stars right by there heads. "Ha!" Kuwabara laughed, "You missed us!" "That was but a warning, this time I won't miss." Ruto pulled out another two stars, but instead of hitting them, she tossed them past there heads again. "Won't miss, eh? I don't know if you noticed but uh, you missed us." "No, she got a direct hit." Yusuke and Kuwabara turned around to find a large man with long white hair along with two small creature like men on his shoulders. The man pulled the two stars from his chest and threw them on the ground. As Yusuke and Kuwabara were befalling about the man's size, Ruto ran for it. "Excuse me gentlemen, but I can't let my prize escape." The man kicked both Yusuke and Kuwabara into the wall, then ran after Ruto.
Ruto ran as far as she could, but came upon another dead end. "Damnit!" "Now, now Ruto. Why are you making this more difficult than it really is?" "You won't get me Sanon!" "I disagreeā¦" As Sanon walks towards her, Ruto pulls out another star and throws it in his left eye. He screams out in pain, drawing Kurama's attention. Sanon pulls out the star and pushes Ruto up against a wall. She faints, and then Sanon throws her over his shoulder.
"It's time to collect our bounty boys!" As Sanon turns around he finds Kurama awaiting him. "I'm afraid not." Kurama said tenderly. "You mustn't know who we are." Sanon said. "Fine. Allow me to introduce us. I am Sanon, and these two are the Nashnie brothers. And you are standing in our way." The Nashnie brothers jumped off Sanon's shoulder and attack Kurama. Kurama slashes his rosewhip, and the two die instantly. "Impressive. But, can you take me on?" Sanon reveals a claw on his left hand and shoots it at Kurama. Kurama attempts to dodge, but the claw catches his shirt. Sanon tosses him about like a rag doll until finally his shirt rips. Kurama gets back up. "Still want more? Can't you see? Nothing can stand in the way of me collecting this bounty!" Just then, Yusuke's voice was heard "What about a shot to the head?" Sanon turns his head and finds Yusuke in his spirit gun position. "Spirit Gun!" And Sanon is blown directly in the head, and falls to the ground, with Ruto flinging off his shoulder.
"Thank you Yusuke." "No prob." Yusuke says just as Kuwabara just arrives. "Oh man! I missed out on all the action!" Kuwabara sits down, disappointed that he missed out (again). "Well Kurama, we should take Ruto home now." "Yes, we should." Together Yusuke and Kurama lift Ruto's body and walk off, with Kuwabara behind them.
Again Ruto found herself in the same bed, in the same room, with the same people. "Drink this." Kurama handed Ruto a cup of tea. She stared at it for a moment, then drank it. "Why? Why have you done this for me? I would have been dead right now if it weren't for you." Ruto's eyes begin to tear. "Don't worry about it Ruto, that's just what we do." "What you do?"
It grew late and everyone was about to leave. But, before Yusuke left, Ruto grabbed his hand. "Can I help you?" Ruto kneeled onto her knees and then began to speak. "I owe you a life debt. Please, accept this offer." "Okay, just let go of my hand." Ruto stood up and smiled at him. "Yeah, whatever. See ya tomorrow Ruto." As Yusuke and the other's left the room, Ruto murmured, "Good day great sirs."
