Kaida Okami - The Beginning
Chapter Seven
"Hiei," "No." "But if you~" "No." "I just~" "NO!" Kaida growled in frustration. "HIEI!! GIMME THE STUPID BLEEPING SKITTLES BACK!!!!" (a/n: still don't own Skittles.) After a half an hour of having small random candies pelt him in the head, Hiei had finally confiscated the entire bag. Unfortunately for him, Kaida was not going to give up that easily. She lunged across the seat at him grabbing wildly for the bag, which he held slightly above her head. She glared at him.
"You are taking advantage of my shortness." She told him. "And since when are you taller than me?!" Kuwabara sat up in his seat.
"What, you mean someone's actually shorter than the shrimp?" he asked laughing stupidly. He was quickly knocked unconscious. Yusuke was sitting, sprawled out across his seat snoring loudly with a sleeping Keiko next to him. Botan, Kurama, and Yukina where now the only other ones awake (considering Kuwabara has just been rendered unconscious). Kaida sat down in a huff. A few minutes later Kurama looked at her.
"your being quiet all of the sudden." He said.
"I'm not quiet, I'm plotting." She informed him, lunging yet again at the Skittles bag, which Hiei moved out of her way rather abruptly. Kaida sat down again drumming her fingers on the armrest. She looked at Hiei out of the corner of her eye. She opened her mouth to speak but before she could get a word out..
"No." Said Hiei. Kaida growled and slouched in her chair. This was going to be a long flight.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kaida was the first one off the plane when it landed. She stretched luxuriously before yawning and picking up her bag. Yusuke walked out groggily and looked around.
"Nice island." He said looking around. The sarcasm in his voice was evident. The island was dull looking and plain. A large hotel stood a little ways to the right surrounded by woods with a large arena on the other side. Surrounding the arena was a rather large market place. The hotel itself was a rather boring gray color. Slowly the others piled out of the plane and grabbed their bags, walking towards the Hotel.
When they got up to their rooms Kaida dumped her bag on the nearest bed and looked around. It was a medium sized room with small cots enough to bed Yukina, Keiko, Botan, and Kaida. There was another door in the room that connected to the boys room. Yusuke poked his head through the door.
"Lets go, Kaida." He said. "We have to register for the tournament." Keiko, Yukina, and Botan looked up.
"Your not going anywhere with out me." Said Keiko
"Ditto!" said Botan. Yukina stood up with them. Kaida sighed in exasperation but agreed. She wanted to get this tournament started already!!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
They walked through the city with Kaida's latest warning in their heads. 'Keep a hold of your cash and don't blame me if someone steals it' she had said turning on her heel and walking out the door. Yukina, Keiko, and Botan had wisely decided to leave their valuables at home. Yusuke, having no money what so ever, wasn't worried in the slightest. Kuwabara on the other hand....
*WHAM*
"Hey kid, watch where your going!" he cried out as a young boy ran into him, knocking him flat on his face. The kid stuck his tounge out and started to walk away. Kaida just looked at Kuwabara like he was an idiot (which he is) and reached out to grab the boy by his shoulder. She held her hand out firmly.
"Give it." She said just as firmly. The boy struggled but in the end, handed Kuwabara's wallet over to her. After giving the wallet back to Kuwabara she turned to the kid and grinned.
"That's the oldest pick pocket trick in the book" she told him. "Next time, try sneaking up behind them quietly and slipping it out of their pocket with out all the fuss." She handed him some money and winked at his stunned expression.
"You're gonna take money out of your own pocket and give it to a street rat like me?" he asked dubiously. Kaida grinned.
"Well, for one thing," she said. "I'm not an average person. And for another. That's his money." She said, jerking a thumb in Kuwabara's general direction, who checked his walled to find he was indeed missing a few bills. The boy grinned and ran off but stopped a little ways away and turned back to look at Kaida.
"Hey lady!" he called
"Yeah?" she answered, wondering why he had stopped.
"Do I know you?" he asked puzzled. Kaida grinned.
"Maybe, but I'm sure you've heard of me." She said. "Kaida Okami." The boy grinned back, recognizing the name of the thief and ran off.
"What was that all about?" Kurama asked.
"Helping the needy." She said airily. Kuwabara glared at her.
"You owe me money." He said.
"But it was for a good cause.." Hiei made a noise sounding some what like a snort. Kaida glared at him.
"well it was." She said indignantly.
"You're a regular Robin Hood." He said dryly. "can we go now? We still have to register for the tournament."

"My lord." Stuttered an oni at the door of the office.
"Yes." Came the impatient reply. The office was darkly lit, occupied by a large desk and chair. The demon sitting in the chair was large. The younger demon, looking to be in his teens, stood by observing quietly.
"My lord, the girl, Kaida Okami and the others are here. They will be registering soon." The man waved the Oni away and turned to the younger demon.
"Are you ready, Ryu?" he asked, voice deep. Ryu nodded and left like a shadow. The man stared out the window and folded his hands together.
"Let the games begin..."
