Chapter 3: Gambling With A Fox (never do it)

A thick fog of quiet enveloped the apartment. The sound of cards being slapped on the table broke the silence for a few seconds, but the silence continued afterwards.

Hiei stared across the table, straight at the face of evil impersonating a beautiful angel. Hiei glanced at his pitiful cards and slapped them down angrily. Kurama smirked, "Do you fold?"

Hiei glared deathly at him and snorted, "Never." Kurama scratched his head and smiled, "Let's continue then."

Hiei twitched and knew deep in his soul that there was no chance of winning.

After two hours of watching Hiei stare at his cards, Kurama finally touched the line of impatience. "Hiei…I'm going to set my cards down. I don't feel like sitting here and waiting until I die of boredom."

Hiei inhaled sharply and nodded while silently praying the fox had as bad a hand as he did.

"Royal flush." Kurama sighed. Hopes shattered, Hiei stood up and started towards the door.

"Where do you think you're going?" Kurama asked calmly, while gathering the cards.

Hiei dared a glance back, "A walk."

"When are you coming back?" Kurama stood up and placed the cards in a nearby drawer.

Kurama was met with silence and then Hiei made a mad dash out the door yelling, "NEVER!"

With a sigh Kurama wielded his whip and snapped it around Hiei's waist. The fire apparition began to scream bloody murder as he was dragged back into the apartment.

Kurama chuckled softly to himself as he watched Hiei began to bite the vine in a mad attempt to escape.

"Now to satisfy your end of the deal my love." Kurama smirked. Hiei's body slouched limply while nodding slightly in understanding.

Hiei stood on the sidewalk in front of the apartment, an incredibly busy street. Some small children laughed when they looked his way and begged their parents for a picture.

The elderly found it very amusing and began to talk starting their sentences with "In my day…"

Hiei gave the darkest look he could give at every passerby, but they only giggled or chuckled and laughed about how kids were so cute.

The spiky haired boy twitched in annoyance and glanced up to see his lover on the roof smiling down on him and waving.

This only proved to annoy him further and he threw a rock at him. Kurama dodged deftly and laughed as he backed farther up the roof.

A little girl came up to him with huge adorable eyes that would melt any heart, "Mr. Bunny can I take a picture with you?" Hiei's eye twitched and he nodded silently.

After the picture was taken the girl smiled and gave him a hug. Then she ran to her parents and laughed as her father picked her up.

The girl waved a slightly crooked picture of herself and Hiei. He was wearing bunny ears and some bunny paws and shoes. He had a simple pink bunny pajama as his overall clothing, and small fluffy cotton tail swayed behind him whenever the wind blew.

Hiei felt humiliated in the ridiculous and feeble outfit, but due to his loss he was forced to obey Kurama's terms.

He glanced at a nearby clock and sighed, " 30 more minutes to go."

Kurama stared to the far right and smirked, "Hiei love! 30 more minutes to go!"

Hiei nodded and decided he could stand the humiliation for just a while longer.

Suddenly the ground began to shake and nearby people wondered if it was a tremor. Hiei looked toward the source at the far right of where he was standing.

Something was kicking up a lot of dust; Hiei pondered on this for a bit and thought it might be a storm. But the weather looked fine and the news said nothing about an incoming storm.

Suddenly something came into view. It seemed like a black speck for a while, increasing to the size of a blot. Hiei, curious, turned and tried to get a better view.

After a few minutes it was finally clear. A mob a rabid fan girls were running directly at him.

It took him a few seconds to transfer what they were moaning. Then it was so loud he could not ignore it, "Hiiieeeeeiiii innnn aaaa buuunnnnyyyy suuuiiiitttt…."

He whipped his head toward the clock, "25 minutes?" His eyes bugged out, as the mob was only a mile away.

He turned, with a sudden lapse of memory he forgot that he could run faster than a bullet train, and began a mad dash down the street in the opposite direction.

An hour later Kurama was watching the news intently. "We have confirmed that wonder bunny has passed through Hong Kong. He has set a world record or going around the world with no sign of stopping for a rest. Following, seems to be a mob of hyperactive girls, intent on capturing the wonder bunny."

Yusuke watched the news from his kitchen and froze. The cup of water he was filling had over flooded as he watched the star of the show, a spiky haired fire apparition running for his life. He burst into maniacal laughter and fell to the floor clutching his stomach.

Koenma watched his the wide screen in the office and snorted, "Well I can be proud of them now." The lord had searched the members of the team to see how they were; not realizing it would show one of them creating a record while wearing a bunny suit.

At 2 am the next day Hiei wobbled into the apartment and glared at Kurama who was awaiting his return.

"I'm going to kill you fox."

"I love you too love."

I have now realized that I take a while to get inspiration. Bear with me please lol. I'm a tad slow. This came to me while watching my moronic bf and his friends play poker. Haha please review.
