Disclaimer: Alas I do not own the YYH boys and girls…but they are fun to play with…and that's reason enough for this fic ^_^
Look We Found a Kitty!

"That's right, vacuum the WHOLE store," Enyo said eagerly.
"And then you can scrub the counter," Themis added.
The two boys groaned and set to work cleaning. When they were dragged into the backroom the only thing the girls said was, "You mess it up YOU fix it." And then they handed them the cleaning supplies. Yusuke, the black-haired boy, grumbled as he ran the vacuum across the carpet. It was either clean the store, or pay for the comics they had ruined. He still wasn't sure this was the lesser of two evils.
His companion Kuwabara, on the other hand was humming happily while he scrubbed down the counter, every now and then grinning at Themis and Enyo, who both seemed to find the whole thing very funny.
"Oh, uh boys," Themis said brightly. "Could you get the windows too while your at it? Thanks a bunch." Enyo chuckled and motioned for her sister to follow her into the back room. Once they were gone Yusuke turned to Kuwabara.
"Look you idiot! See what you did?"
"Wha…huh? They don't seem too bad, Urimeshi. They're kinda pretty." He gave a goofy smile in the direction they had gone.
Yusuke shrugged. "This is still stupid, and YOUR fault."
"Hey booooooys," Enyo chirped as she entered the room. Yusuke groaned. "How about you take a break and have some tea with us?"
Yusuke put on his defiant grin and turned around. "Well…what in the world is that?!"
Themis giggled. "It's our new kitty. We found him in the back room, weird huh?"
"It's weird alright," Yusuke muttered.
"I don't think I've ever seen a blue cat with three tails before," Kuwabara said nervously.
"Oh psh," the girls said. And Themis put the tea tray on the counter. "Come and get it!"

Aside:
Enyo: This is the part of the show where Themis dances around with the fuzzy animal…
Themis: *Spins in circles with Kitty*
Enyo: Uh…I think It looks a bit sickly…you might wanna…You look a little green too…
Themis: *Falls over swirly eyed*
Enyo: Poor Kitty….*snatches it up and pets it* Did widdle Themi-chan make oo dizzy?
Yusuke: Is that baby talk?
Enyo: *scowls* No!
Yusuke: Whatever. Can we get back to the story?
Themis: unghhhh Soooooo dizzy @_@

As they sat around drinking tea Kuwabara asked, "What kind of names are Enyo and Themis?"
"Greek," Themis replied.
"Yea our parents kind of had a thing for Greek Mythology," Enyo added.
"We moved out a few weeks ago, but we'd been saving up to come here for almost four years."
"This has always been our dream."
"This shop is pretty cool," Yusuke admitted.
"Glad you think so. But please take your fights outside next time," Themis laughed. Kitty was curled up on the counter, licking lazily at a saucer of milk, its three tails swishing happily.
"What are you gonna name 'er?" Kuwabara asked, reaching out to pet him. As soon as his fingertips brushed the fur he jumped back.
"What the matter with you, Kuwabara?" Yusuke asked.
"Uh, sorry, but we gotta go," Kuwabara said, dragging Yusuke to his feet and out the door. "We'll stop by tomorrow to help you clean up again okay?"
"Strange boys," Themis said, beckoning Kitty into her lap.
Enyo nodded, but she was frowning.

"What the big idea Kuwabara?" Yusuke demanded yanked himself free from Kuwabara's death-grip on his arm. His eyes went wide at the site of Kuwabara's terrified face.
"I don't know what it was," he whispered, "But it felt bad, Urimeshi. Real bad."
"That's what I was afraid of," Yusuke said. "Come on Kuwabara, I think we better tell Botan."

Aside:
Enyo: While Themis is all Sleepy Sleeperson I thought I'd throw out there this tid-bit. We mentioned that our names are sorta lifted from Greek mythology. My name, Enyo, comes from the demi-goddess of war
As for Themis, her name comes from the goddess of Justice. Hott? Yeah it is.
Yusuke: Why do you keep doing these dumb asides?
Enyo: *Hits him over the head with a blunt object* Oops! Heh….*mumbles* Where to hide the body
Yusuke: I'm NOT dead
Enyo: Oh! *looks a little sad* I've never gotten to hide a body before…
Yusuke: *rubbing head* Let's just get back to the story!
***
"What does widdle kitty schnookums want for supper?"
"Enyo what are you saying to that cat?"
"Nothing…" *creeps away*
Themis scoops the kitty up shaking her head. "Did cwazy Enyo-chan scare oo? " she cooed.
"Hey!"
*blush*
"Oh!" Themis shouted, nearly sending Kitty flying. "He needs a name."
"How about…Eris."
"Ooooo. Wait, that's a girl's name!"
"But I figure," Enyo said thoughtfully. "She was goddess of Discord. And the way those boys just acted it fits. Plus names cross genders all the time."
Themis crossed her arms over her chest. "Running on a bit of a pattern aren't you?"
*blush* "Well.."
*wink* "I like it"
"Well its time for bed," Enyo said yawning.
"Yep," Themis agreed heading for her room, but Eris wouldn't stop squirming until finally she had to let him go. He padded right to the door and sat down, looking back over his shoulder. "You wanna go out?"
Themis opened the door, and Eris slipped out. "You come back now," she said, before turning back to Enyo. They both shrugged and went to bed.

Me: Wow a lil long dontcha know? *shrug* Anywhoo that's the end of chapter two…and I'm not quite where I want to be yet, but the plot is forthcoming I promise. And we will be having an appearance from everybody's two favorite demons soon enough ^_~
Themis: Hey! I wasn't in the last Aside!
Enyo: You were asleep.
Themis: I know but I'm sad.
Enyo: Well then do an interpretive dance or something, they haven't left yet.
Themis: *sweatdrop*
Enyo: What?
Me: *sweatdrop*
Enyo: What?!
