Now after the incident at the freshmen ceremony was dealt with Yusuke had decided take off and explore the school grounds some more to get a better idea where everything was. The Newspaper Club had left in a different direction to do their own thing letting Yusuke explore on his own. Which Yusuke would have to be honest and say that he was happy about. He could only take so much of the PDA that was in that club and the less of it he had to see the better.

It didn't take long for Yusuke to realize that the school clubs were still recruiting new members as several of them still had stalls up trying to get new members from the freshmen year. Yusuke figured that since most of the freshmen were just settling in the day before like he was and weren't even trying to see what clubs there were to join. Now normally Yusuke wouldn't even care about the clubs or paid any attention to them but before leaving the Freshmen Ceremony Miss Nekonome had informed him that joining a club was mandatory, Yusuke was currently silently cursing himself out for telling Keiko that he would try to follow the rules this time around.

Yusuke own silent self-inflicting cure war was interrupted though by a something he was not expecting, the aroma of something that smelled like it tasted awesome. Yes that's right, Yusuke's thoughts were interrupted by the smell of food. Now with his curiosity piqued Yusuke quickly switched from exploring the school to following his nose to find out where the delicious smell was coming from, all the while comparing himself to a cartoon toucan mascot of a cereal from the US that for some reason he found in Demon World within his ancestral father's domain. He never did question why he saw the cereal there or who even ate the stuff, he just knew of it and that was all that mattered in his head for his own personal joke.

While Yusuke was searching for the source of the scent he was following he had passed by the swimming club, making a quick picture of the apparent club president in her mermaid form so he could share with his friends back home when he got the chance, he'll be damned if he didn't take a photo of her and not mess with Kuwabora with it later. He also passed by several of the other more obscure clubs but he didn't pay any attention to them since none of their members were in their monster forms.

It wasn't too long after taking the photo of the swimming club's president that Yusuke had found the source of the scent he was following. It was coming from a food kart that looked like a typical Japanese street vending kart. Yusuke was sure something had to be different about it thought considering the school he was at, hell he wouldn't have been surprised if some of the menu items were made with stuff that wouldn't be wise for a human to eat, but damn his curiosity he was still going to see what was on the menu and try something for himself, it was lunch time after all.

So Yusuke had walked over to the kart and sat himself down on a free stool, which he was surprised to find that almost all of the stools were free. Only one was not as it was currently occupied by a heavy set male student who looked to have been there for a while as he had several piles of empty plates and bowls in front of him. Just when Yusuke was going to ask the guy what he ordered the guy had got up from his stool and left saying the food sucked and he wasn't going to join the club as he did so. Now normally Yusuke wouldn't care if someone acted like an ass like that but that guys just pissed him off doing this. But Yusuke was stopped from doing anything by a voice coming from behind the tall stacks of plates and bowls. Stopping himself to make sure he heard correctly Yusuke tried to see behind the plates and asks, "Is someone back there? Did you say something?"

Behind the pile of plates and bowls apparently was a relatively tall blonde girl with straight hair that was tied together in a long braid, and from what Yusuke could tell her hair could possibly reach down to her waist, she was wearing a plain white apron over her school uniform. She had a worrying look to her face even though she was smiling, the only reason Yusuke could tell she was worried was because of her chocolate brown eyes betrayed her in this regard showing her true emotion at the moment. Calming herself down a bit with a quick breath the girl behind the counter smiles towards Yusuke and says, "I'm sorry but please don't do anything to him. He may have been rude but our club doesn't need people thinking that we will beat them up should they be rude to us."

Yusuke could only nod in response to that feeling that would have been a bad reputation to have. He was about to ask her about what her club was as well after that but she had beat him to the punch and continued with what she said by adding, "Oh yes! And before I forget my name is Rei Hitsugaiya and this is the Cooking Club. It is nice to meet you, can I offer you something to drink while you go over our menu we had prepared to get new members?"

Yusuke could only blink as a menu was suddenly placed in front of him while Rei had started taking the pile of plates and bowls off of the counter and into what he could only assume was a designated place for dirty dishes to be cleaned later. Skimming through the menu Yusuke quickly found what he would like to drink and says, "Sure. Well I would like to have some iced tea and I do have one question, what is that I smell being cooked now? That smells pretty good."

Rei started slightly by the comment turned behind her as it did look like there might have been more to the kart than what Yusuke could see and says, "You want to know what is being cooked now? Almost no one wants to eat the things our club president makes. Are you sure?"

Now more curious than he was before Yusuke could only nod and he answers, "Yeah, why? What is being made? It isn't something taboo is it?"

Rei now quickly shook her head saying, "Of course not! She would never eat let alone cook anything taboo like that. We are a club that actually likes the foods that humans have made over the years. Not a single one of us would even eat most of the stuff that monsters eat that humans don't."

"Okay okay I get it! Now can you please just tell me what she is making already? You don't have to act as if I was going to kill you guys or something if I didn't like your answer." Yusuke quickly interrupted with trying calm down Rei so that he could finally get an answer to his question.

Quickly sighing in relief Rei had turned again behind her and shouts, "Club President! A customer wants to know what you are making!"

After Rei had shouted several sounds could be heard as if the club president was suddenly in a rush and was knocking into things making other things fall and break. When Yusuke was finally able to see her she it was only after she knocked down a false wall which knocked into Rei. Seeing that scene Yusuke couldn't help but smirk thinking what was not happening between Rei and the club president reminded him of the fights that he and Kuwabora would get into. The club president reminded Yusuke of himself in that despite being shorter than Rei she was obviously the stronger of the two, or at least was able to fight better than Rei.

The club president had curly dark reddish brown hair that had reached down her shoulders and rust red eyes. The strangest thing were the short metal chains connected to her wrists but other than that she had a similar figure to all of the other girls at the school. And a confident yet surprised look to her face when she saw Yusuke and simply asks, "You're the one that wants to know what I'm making?"

Yusuke nods back at her saying, "Sure do. Whatever it is it smells great. What is it?"

Yusuke didn't have a chance to dodge what happened next. The club president had dove over the counter latching herself onto Yusuke giving him a hug for his question. After about a second of realizing what she had done though she had quickly stood up and placed Yusuke back down onto his stool, which had surprised Yusuke considering she did that by picking him up without any sort of trouble either from the look on her face, and the she dove back behind the counter. She had coughed away the awkwardness of what she had done and simply says, "Sorry about that. Anyway what I am making is something that I had seen on TV once, sautéed Sea Robin. I had just finished cooking it actually and was about to try it to see how it came out. Do you want to try some as well?"

Yusuke nodded figuring it was best to ignore what happened to him at the moment and says, "Sure, if it tastes anywhere close to how it smells it can't be that bad. By the way my name is Yusuke Urameshi, what's yours?"

The club president had laughed at herself for not introducing herself earlier and bonked herself on her head and says, "Right sorry, my name is Sanae Kirisame and sure. Let me bring out what I had made and we can try it together."

What Sanae wound up brining from the back was two plates of a golden brown fish that thanks to the fish being cut into two Yusuke could tell was a snow white on the inside and Yusuke could only assume it was cut into two so that he and Sanae could both try out the fish to see how it came out. And so with the plate now in front of them both they both tried a piece of their respective half of the fish and were both surprised at how it came out. Yusuke could only compare it to Sea Bass but with a surprising amount of flavor. Smiling at what he had discovered by following his nose Yusuke laughed a little to himself and says, "Who knew that Sea Robin could taste this good. So is this a normal thing for your club?

Sanae smiled as she nodded loving how the Sea Robin came out and replies, "Sure do. It's little discoveries like this that was why the club was formed. When we meet we will always try to make something new or at least plan to make something new by the end of the week. If we can we even try to make sure we all try to make something different so that we can expand on what we can make and what we eat. We don't want to ever wind up in a routine where we wind up eating the same thing every week, because we feel that would just be boring."

Yusuke had to smirk hearing this answer and says, "You know what? Before coming to this school I was thinking of opening up a food kart like this. So maybe joining a club like this would be good practice for when I open one up. So would it be cool if I joined you guys?"

Sanae smiled hearing this looking towards Rei and then back to Yusuke and answers, "Sure. I'm cool with that. We're always looking for new members. Now since you are only joining now I'm going to say you can start tomorrow….hey wait a minute! I'm trying to say you don't have to start until tomorrow! Let Rei clean those! What are you doing!"

Yusuke just ignored Sanae's yelling and simply says, "There is no reason for me to start tomorrow when I can start today. And besides with there being piles of dishes from the fat ass that was here earlier I figured as the new guy the least I can do is get those things cleaned for you guys so you can focus on getting new members. I'm sure you'll want more than just one new member this year right?"

Rei had thanked Yusuke as she showed him where to place the dirty dishes as Sanae sighed in defeat but with a happy smile on her face and says, "Then so be it. As punishment for disobeying me by starting today instead of tomorrow then for today you are on dish cleaning duty. Rei head to the back and get the kitchen clean as I watch for potential new members."

Both Rei and Yusuke gave each other a happy smirk as they high fived each other seeing that Sanae wasn't going to fight with them with Yusuke helping out even though she was trying to be nice to the guy. It didn't take long though for Rei to realize that Yusuke was indeed a new member was wondering how the other two members of their club will react to their being a new member to the club. It wasn't the fact that they had a new club member that got her thinking, it was how they now had a male club member that got her thinking. She quickly shook those thoughts away though and went back to her task of cleaning the kitchen so that they could prepare more food to help them lure in new club members.
