----------

It was the day before they were to leave for the tournament, breakfast was waiting in the kitchen area for the three as usual as they trouped in, but a lot more than usual. Each had their own tray!

Yusuke stared at the sheer amount of food piled on each tray and gaped at it in shock. "About time there was a decent sized meal around here!" she shouted gleefully as she grabbed her tray and took it to the table. Karasu and Bui remained silent as they took their own trays to the table. Breakfast was just as silent as always.

Bui, as usual, finished first, and placed his tray on the counter before walking out. A second later Yusuke finished her meal, surprisingly not able to finish more than half the meal. Groaning slightly, she lifted the tray and moved to place it on the counter also, but tripped over the leg of her chair. The remaining contents of said tray sloshed over Karasu, who before seemed intent on ignoring everything but his own slowly disappearing meal.

Turning slowly, seemingly unable to restrain his anger, eyes narrowed malevolently, Karasu whispered, "You did that...on purpose..." Rising suddenly, his chair smashing into the counters behind him, and his mask was slammed down onto the table.

"Uh...oh shit!" Yusuke yelled as Karasu promptly began to inhale deeply, powering up for his attack. She instantly made a mad dash for the door.

"Not so fast!" Karasu screamed as he threw a bomb at the door, blocking Yusuke's escape. The force of the explosion tossed Yusuke into the table, right next to Karasu. The table collapsed from her combined weight and momentum.

Making a quick roll to the side to get away from the infuriated demon, Yusuke powered up her spirit gun, ready to blow off Karasu's head. Karasu, in the mean time had formed several more bombs and begun his assault again. His aim wasn't very good though. Bombs flew in every direction, the counters, the walls, Karasu's food. The last one caused a shower of food to hit both fighters and a moment of calm ensued as both fighters picked the scraps from their eyes and/or hair.

It was during this moment of calm that Bui charged into the room to find out what was going on. The scene was obviously not what he had been expecting, which had been that both fighters would have been horribly injured, not covered in food.

The moment ended and Karasu and Yusuke came together in another round of the fight.

'Oh no,' thought Bui. 'This is going to get dangerous, and I'm going to be saddled with the blame! Maybe I should incapacitate Yusuke and try to calm Karasu down afterwards.'

This plan however, backfired when he moved to attack Yusuke at the same moment as Karasu, hoping to bring her down in one blow.

Karasu however, saw what Bui was doing and yelled through an insane smirk, "This is MY fight!" and turned his attack toward Bui. At the exact same moment, Yusuke landed a punch on Bui that was powered with spirit energy. The result was that Bui was blown from the room and into the wall of the hall.
----------

Toguro stared at where Bui had just been knocked into a wall, the babbling attendant next to him for once falling silent. The racket that was coming from the kitchen got louder however, and he turned his attention back toward the kitchen area that was now in shambles.

Inside, Yusuke and Karasu were facing off and hadn't noticed him. They were fighting viciously, scratching, biting, hair pulling(though this was more effective against Karasu), and just not thinking at all.

Tramping angrily into the room, he approached the quarrelling fighters and when neither noticed him, he grabbed both by the back of the neck and yanked them apart forcefully.

"What in the hell is going on here?!?" he roared at both fighters who were staring each other down. Neither answered. "Fine! If I can't get a straight answer, I probably don't want to know!"

"It was all his fault!" Yusuke yelled pointing at the demon.

"Shut up!" Karasu yelled at Yusuke, looking as though he'd like nothing more than to bite off the extended digit.

"You're acting like children! Both of you!" Toguro yelled at the protesting Karasu.

"I am a child!" Yusuke pointed out with a smirk. "I'm only 14."

Toguro instantly threw Yusuke into a wall. "I don't like smart ass comments." Karasu grinned at seeing Yusuke thrown into the wall. "Now, I think punishments are in line here. Yusuke, you'll clean up this mess and restore this kitchen by tonight. Karasu, I think you have too much energy you need to get rid of. You will fight me. Bui, you'll spend the rest of the day in your room. There will be no food for any of you until I feel a lesson has been taught." With that, still gripping a now shaking Karasu by the neck, he left.

Bui, having just extracted himself from the wall, murmured something about "Toguro's too lenient on the kid," before leaving Yusuke alone with the attendant in the wrecked kitchen.

Turning, Yusuke began to pick up some of the debris and throw it into the trashcan when the attendant suddenly began to try to spout out orders. Narrowing her own eyes, she yelled "Kiss it!" at the attendant before literally kicking him out of the kitchen by the posterior, and into the wall Bui had just occupied.

"Oh, and on your way out, could you get me a broom?" she called after the attendant.
----------
7 hours, 20 splinters, and 1000 muttered curses later...

Yusuke had almost finished the kitchen, and she hadn't used her powers at all! (not that they would have been much help) At the second, she was repairing the last cabinet, it hadn't been damaged too extensively and only required the replacement of the door. She tried to open the door but found it stuck. Grabbing the door, she gave it a hard yank, pulling not only the door off, but the frame as well.
Many curses later...

The frame was now back in place and the door completed. While insuring that the door opened and closed properly, she noticed what occupied the cabinet. The stack of 'reading' material, the safety objects, the weird objects, the beverages, and the toppings.

"Is that sake? Ooooo!" she said while looking around to insure no one was in the vicinity. "I think it is!" she whispered to herself as she snickered slightly.
----------
30 minutes later and a whole bottle of sake and another one well under way...

Staggering out of the now clean kitchen, carrying her bottle of sake close to her heart, Yusuke stared at the newly spinning room when she spotted Kuwabara(or what she thought to be Kuwabara at the time) lounging against the far wall. Slowly and carefully, she attempted to walk up to him, falling right into him.

"Kuwabaka, you need to learn to respect women! I'll tell Yukina on you...I'm sure she'd love to hear about you hitting on me...And when did you get so rock hard, man? You never work out, and last time I fought you, it was like fighting a pillow!" Yusuke mumbled.

Karasu's POV(point of view for those who don't know):

After a...painful...day, Karasu wanted nothing more than to go to his room and sulk. However, right after entering the Toguro's sanctum, he noticed that Yusuke had her arm around a statue and was mumbling something incomprehensible to it. Thinking to ignore this behavior and let one of the Toguros deal with it, he proceeded to walk past. To his deep irritation, he was followed by a yelling Yusuke with a bottle in tow, then was glomped by said irritation.

"Karasu, I love man!" Yusuke slurred happily into his ear. Karasu could smell the alcohol on her breath, and probably could have from miles away.

Karasu immediately slammed his fist down onto the top of the drunk girl's head, stunning her momentarily so he could slip away.

"Ow! So, you like it rough... Ok, I can do..." WHAM!! That was the sound as she fell flat on her face, allowing Karasu to escape unscathed.

Normal POV: Minutes later:

Yusuke peeled herself off the floor, then tried to rescue her tipped bottle of sake from the floor. She was unsuccessful, though.

Again on her feet, Yusuke stumbled back to the kitchen to retrieve another bottle of sake. Opening the bottle and taking a quick drink, she decided to have an adventure of roaming the fortress(possibly to find the mirror again and give it a piece of her mind). Leaving the Toguros' rooms, she stumbled down the hall, not really seeing where she was going exactly, her bottle of sake still in tow and sloshing all over the floor.

A good number of turns, twists, falls, and screams at the invisible alien invaders later, she found a staircase. But it wasn't just any staircase, it had a banister! ( Running to the top of the stairs, the bottle still in tow, though now mostly empty, she jumped onto the banister, grabbed the sake in one hand, the banister in the other, and down she went!

"Whoopee!" she screamed as she zoomed down the unending staircase's banister. She thought this was a great idea until the Toguros came into view, at the end of the staircase. In hopes of getting away(since her brain wasn't working at maximum capacity), she leapt from the banister. But, being inebriated as she was, her jump sent her straight into the elder Toguro who, as usual, was perched on his brother's shoulder. She wasn't really aware of when their mouths met, or when she realized it, but as soon as she did, things got interesting!

"Ew ew ew ew! Yuck! Gross!" she screamed really fast, for once her speech unslurred and comprehensible.

The brother, on the other hand, was on the floor, staring up at the ceiling in shock! His first kiss!

The younger brother stared, completely at a loss for words. Yusuke Urameshi had just unintentionally kissed his brother! A loud thud brought him back to reality. Looking up, he saw shards of what was a sake bottle scattered all over the ground. Then saw Yusuke, challenging him to a fight.

"Say goodnight Yusuke," he said as he moved closer to the girl.

"Good night Yusuke, who's Yusuke? I'm Batman!" the girl exclaimed as Toguro's fist came down onto her head, which was the second blow to the noggin she received that night. This plunged the girl into darkness.

Toguro grabbed Yusuke's ankle and proceeded to return to his sanctum. He gave a warning to the servants, telling them to make sure that Bui would be waiting to retrieve her and take her to her cell.

Once they were in the sanctuary, he dropped her ankle and stalked out of the room to go grab his brother who was still staring at the ceiling. Bui appeared immediately after him, and still feeling sour about earlier that day, he grabbed her ankle and proceeded to drag her up the stairs none too gently, in other words, her head banged on every step and an audible "ow" proceeded that.

The Next Morning...

After waking to an excruciating headache, Yusuke asked herself, "What happened?" The memories came back to her all too quickly, and eyes widening in horror, she made for her toilet, probably in record time.

"I KISSED HIM!!?!?!?" she screamed miserably in a disgusted voice.

At the next moment, Karasu banged into the room, catching a heaving Yusuke.

"How pleasant," Karasu remarked, rolling his eyes. "Toguro would like to have a word with you now."

"I'm busy!" Yusuke yelled between heaves, "Go away!"

"I wonder how your boyfriend will react when he learns you cheated on him. With that THING." Karasu taunted as he turned and left, slamming the door behind him.

Yusuke finished her business soon after the demon had left and went back to bed. She was hoping to go to sleep so she could wake up and find it was a dream. This wasn't meant to be though. Karasu came back soon after, ripped the cover off, grabbed Yusuke by the hair, and dragged her down the stairs.
