Chapter 2 -Yoko's story

Disclaimer-I don't own Yu Yu ( sadly) now on with the chapter!

Stealth and guile were the order of the evening as Yoko ,Kuroune, and Oceanus made their way back to the thieve' s hideout. When Yoko had asked Oceanus to join the group, she had readily accepted because from what she said, she was sick of being a dancing girl anyway. Yoko had inwardly jumped up and down like Hiei on a killing spree when she said yes to his offer because he felt halfway sick when he had seen the demons in the inn trying to fondle her.

Yoko beckoned to the kitsune who rushed up to join him. "What's wrong Yoko?" she asked curiously. He held out a hand to silence her and turned to Kuroune. "Let's set up camp here. "he said to his partner Kuroune only nodded and went off for the wood for the fire. Oceanus silently followed Yoko to the bank of the stream. He gestured that she should sit next to him and when she did ,he turned to her. "What I'm about to tell you ,not even Kuroune knows. It is to stay between us .Understand?" She saw the cold and deadly look in his eyes and nodded. Instantly that look vanished and was replaced by a look of sadness as he began his story.

"When I was still just a kit ,I had two younger sisters. Their names were Marin and Esemerlda. Marin was the fighter in our family. I'd felt her punches more than once." A small smile crossed his face for a minute or two ,then he continued. "Esemeralda was the more quiet of the two. She liked puzzles a lot. After our parents abandoned us I was the one to protect them. One day while I was out looking for food for us ,they were kidnapped. Their kidnapper had me steal for him to set my sisters free. But it was all just a ploy. The day that I stole the necklace of Athena was the day I was to see my sisters set free. All of it was lies. When I returned, I saw something in the distance. When I got closer ,I nearly threw up. There were both of my sisters, dead. Their heads were on pikes that were in the ground in front of me. Their bodies were thrown carelessly behind the tree to my right. I was maddened with grief and rage. But that wasn't all ."He scoffed in disgust. "No that wasn't all. That god damn lord's scent was all over them!" "I just stood there in shock. I knew they both had put up a fight , but he just wanted to spite me!." "I tried to go after the damn bastard but I nearly ended up killing myself in the process." "When I was better I continued to steal, just to ease my hurt." "It became a second nature to me." " But I never forgot him. If I ever find that damn bastard ,I swear ,I'll kill him…"

Oceanus had listened to Yoko intently for the past several minutes. Now when she saw the tears beginning to form in his eyes, she reached over and whispered "Yoko ,I'm so sorry for what happened is there anything I can do to help?" He shook his head and said "We should probably get back ,Kuroune is probably wondering what happened to us. Either that ,or getting ideas in his head." he said smirking slightly. She laughed and said ,"let him think what he wants .In fact he can go to hell for all I care for right now." She reached up and wrapped her arms around Yoko's neck and brushed away the tears that fell. The silver sea green kimono she wore rustled as she and Yoko fell back onto the bank. Her arms were still wrapped around his neck and Yoko's arms had found their way around her waist. She stared lovingly into his amber eyes and suddenly she shook her head." Damn it girl you can't fall in love now! Your sisters are in danger and you're the only one who can save them. Get a grip already!" She soon found herself lost in his eyes again." But damn is he ever hot… Awww snap out of it! He'd never go for a girl like you!" The next thing she knew ,contrarily to her first thought, she found Yoko's lips come crashing down on hers. She gasped in a slight 'oh 'of surprise and quickly deepened the kiss. He broke it off and smiled. "Like you said love, to hell with Kuroune." The full moon had risen behind them. Neither Yoko or Oceanus cared much as Oceanus snuggled against Yoko and looked adoringly up at him. He smiled and lowered his head so it was level with her. He leaned close to her left ear and whispered ,"As soon as we get your sisters free, how'd you like a little surprise?" She looked at him suspiciously for a minute then smiled. She knew what he had in mind, or pretty much anyway. She nodded mischievously and said softly "But what the hell are gonna do with your partner ?" Yoko snuggled next to her and said sleepily, "Don't worry I've got a few ideas ."before he fell asleep next to the beautiful ,yet dangerous kitsune. "Yes Yoko that's what I'm afraid of.. Alas poor Kuroune knew thee well." she thought to herself in mock Shakespeare tone before she too fell asleep, her dreams of Yoko.
