Chapter 3: Overwhelming need to run

Standing in front of the mirror Yuri couldn't help but glare at her reflection. The reason for such action was due to many many many things and a lot of those reasons revolved around 3 people.

"Stupid Mai for inviting Andy and friends for this stupid lesson" growled Yuri.

"Yuri! Are you done yet? We have to go, Andy's waiting" hollered Mai, from the other side of the bathroom door.

"Evil King for not helping me" continued Yuri

"Yuri! Hurry up! Andy is waiting!" screamed a now agitated Mai,

"Curse you Robert for dating that big breasted Blonde woman"

There was silence from the other side of the door but still the distracted Yuri continued to curse people.

"Curse you Robert Garcia for being such an A-hole" hissed Yuri

"Yuri" called a different voice

Even though Yuri did not reply the voice of king continued to speak.

"Yuri, if you don't come out soon I'm might have to tell Ryo who dyed his karate uniform pink"

A minute had not even passed yet, when Yuri ran out of the washroom begging King not to tell her older brother since the incident was not a happy memory for him.

"King! NOOOO!! It was an accident, I swear there were these red socks and I didn't see so it kind of made his uniform pink, I blame the red socks they always brought me bad luck "said Yuri lamely

The sudden action of running out of the washroom had momentarily made her forget about the little appointment they had, but her companions had not forgotten because in the middle of her explanation, Mai and King managed to tie her up. Now the two older women dragged Yuri down the streets of Southtown, ignoring the questioning looks they were getting.

"King please don't make me do this!" begged Yuri, as she was being forced into this.

'Must think up of plan to escape'

"Yuri, I told you this already when you made the deal with Mai you sealed your fate now the only reason I'm here is to make sure you don't end up with someone worse than Robert"

"Common relax, it's just the usual people" said an overly relaxed Mai

"The usual people? How can I call them that since I barely know them! I mean sure I know them from the Tournament and all but that doesn't mean I Know them, right King?"

King being the wonderful person she was just shook her head. Sighing Yuri began to think up of ways to escape from this horrible embarrassing meeting that Mai was going to conduct.

'Ok Think, ummmm plan A, I could always point out something random and run away...ugh that's the lamest plan I've ever made. Plan B I could... oh I know, I'll say that I need to use the washroom and make a quick escape out of the washroom window, That's perfect! yes I shall go with Plan B.'

As the 3 ladies came in sight of their desired location, the people whom they were meeting also came into view.

'Ohh crap, oh crap, oh crap, I see them, I SEE THEM!! '

Poor Yuri was unaware that she had just said her thoughts aloud. Mai oblivious to the younger woman's lamentations continued to grin joyfully since her boyfriend was in sight. While King could not help but laugh at poor Yuri's dilemma.

' ok you only have one chance to get this right, hell yeah I can do this !!!'Cheered Yuri silently

Now only a few feet away from the table where Mai's closest friends sat.

"Is that Yuri being dragged here like a prisoner?" asked a very very bemused Joe Higashi

"Why do I get the feeling that Mai's up to no good again?" said an exasperated Andy

"Who's the blond and brunette?" said the youngest of the group

"The blond is King and the Brunette is Yuri Sakazaki" said the final person at the table which was none other than The Terry Bogard

'Ok, ok, calm down Yuri, you've loosened these ropes and can escape at any moment now just follow plan B and you'll be ok'

The few seconds to the table was horrible but Yuri ignored the sinking feeling of defeat and quickly spat out her need to go to the wash room.

"KingIgottogotothewashroomorillpeeinmypants"(a/n: in case you didn't get that "King I got to go to the washroom or I'll pee in my pants"

Amazingly King had understood Yuri perfectly and gave Yuri the answer she had not expected and almost died when she heard it.

"No, I know you're going to use the bathrooms windows to escape" she said calmly.

'OHHH MAN IM SCREWED!!!' unknown to her again that she had said her thoughts aloud once again and had captured the attention of the people at their table.

Once they finally got to the table and sat down, greetings and introductions where exchanged. Throughout all of this Yuri still continued to plot up ways to escape.

"So Mai, why did you want to meet up with us? I thought you were going to spend the day with King and Mai" said Andy

"Well, you see Yuri just went through a break up and well we decided that Mal..." sadly Mai never got to finish her very interesting explanation since Yuri startled the Table by standing up suddenly.

"OH MY GOD!!" she said dramatically

'Man my acting sucks!!'

"I FORGOT TO UMMM... UH" everyone looked at her in anticipation waiting for her to finish her speech.

'Ok, THINK'

Looking around Yuri heard a little girl telling her mother she had to wash her hands. Now if given the time to prepare which she wasn't a better excuse would have been created but for now that excuse would have to suffice.

"I forgot to wash my hands" with that said Yuri managed to free her hands from the rope and was just about to make a mad dash but was stopped by none other than King.

"It's alright Yuri, you can do that later" said king. Obviously aware of what she was trying to do.

'Oh man, I'm never getting out of here'

"Hey look isn't that Ryo?" pointed Yuri

The funny thing was that everyone looked and Yuri not waiting a second used this chance to escape. Running like a prisoner that had just escaped Jail Yuri had no idea where she was going or even what direction she went.

"Ha ha Sayonara " screamed Yuri as she ran down the streets

Finally coming to a slow jog, she eventually came to a bench and plopped down on it obviously exhausted from running.

"If I knew plan A was going to work I would've escaped sooner" she mumbled softly to herself.

'What am I going to do now? I got a lot of time to waste, more importantly where the heck am I going to sleep? Staying with Mai is out of the question' The young woman could not help but shudder at all the torture her dear friend Mai would put her through once she was found.

Looking around she spotted a telephone booth, contemplating for a few moments till finally she decided to call home. Walking up to the booth she waited patiently for the person inside to finish.

5 min later

Yuri still stood outside the booth waiting her turn.

15 min later

'GRR this guy is taking forever; I am so kicking him out of the phone booth'

"Excuse me could you end your damn phone call and get out! I mean you were in there for awhile now" screamed a very irritated brunette while pounding the door on the door of the phone both.

The person inside seemed to acknowledge the angry banging since they had put the phone down and turned around to meet the eyes of her.

'Oh crap' was the only thoughts that came into Yuri's mind as she came face to face with the Prince of Flames himself, Kyo Kusanagi.

Recovering quickly from her shock, she instantly began to lecture him since it was not in her nature to be forgiving and irritation was not an emotion she let go quickly.

"You sure the person on the other line wasn't asleep? I mean common you've probably been in there for a LONG time"

Kyo slightly surprised at her comment since not many no scratch that no girl spoke to him like that since they were usually fan girls.

"You wish a guy would talk with you that long on the phone" he smirked arrogantly at her.

"Ha! That chick has got you wrapped tightly around her finger, if you call her constantly like a love sick fool" she said triumphantly.

Kyo immediately glared at her dangerously.

"Don't you ever speak that way about Yuki" he hissed venomously and walked away.

Yuri stared at his shrinking figure till he was completely out of sight. When reality took hold of her again. Touching her cheeks for a moment since it felt like her face was burning up.

'What the heck! I'm not blushing because he smirked at me! Cheh!' she thought angrily.

"Wow, he's got it bad" she muttered

Walking into the phone booth and picking up the receiver. Yuri realized she didn't have any money on her at all.

'I just realize that now! After screaming at Kyo Kusanagi! Why!' she lamented silently, while making her way back to the bench where she had first arrived at.

"I think, I'll just explore!" she said excitedly and began to walk around with no sense of where she was going.

Walking around mindlessly for hours till finally she got tired of walking and just plopped down at the closest bus stop she found which she found to be conveniently close by.

'I'm bored, tired, sleepy, and I have no place to go'

By this time the sun was going down and the moon began to rise.

'Robert, I thought you loved me, I thought we would be together forever, I thought I was going to become your wife but I guess not' she thought sadly, as hot tears began to roll down her cheeks. The longer she sat there the more memories returned to her and soon. Soon she could not stop her tears from falling.

"Yuri?" came a masculine voice that broke her chain of thoughts.

Taking around the scenery around her she found that the sun had set long ago since the moon now shone brightly and the street lights had come on.

'How long have I been sitting here?'

"Yuri" said the voice of a stranger that seemed familiar.

Looking up her chocolate brown eyes met ruby.
