A Japanese Weresheep in Mutsuba Town
Author's Note: Time for a new pairing! Enjoy the story and R&R.

Pairing: Developing Yuhi x Chupataro.
Summary:
There are some forms of alien activity even MIK turns a blind eye to. The truly alien activity between Chupataro and Ohdo Yuhi, for instance.
Chapter 2: Sister Knows Best
Dumped.
Damn, that was fast.
They never even made it to that second date. Yuhi had actually been looking forward to…
"No, no, no! Forget about him! You have to find the alien who took your Earthdamar!"
"This is a problem." Yuamu entered the kitchen.
"Yuamu?"
"Maki-san told me you were sulking in here by yourself. Chupataro-kun, eh?"
"Who?" Her brother scowled.
"Your boyfriend?"
Supposed.
"Ultraterrestrial trouble. Our area of expertise, remember? We go after troublesome aliens and exterminate them. That's the job."
"Only someone tipped off MIK!"
"It was Chupataro-kun or Yudias. I chose Yudias. Sometimes, a consultancy needs a consultant."
Yuhi grumbled. At who (Chupataro, Manabu, or Yuamu), he was undecided. Good thing he had Maki-san's sushi rolls and Yagi-san's chicken skewers to chew on. Without them, he might've chipped a tooth!
"They're probably deporting him, Yuhi."
Let them! The guy enjoys being punished! He brushed the outcomes aside. "Exterminate him. Deport him. I don't care!"
"Or…" Yuamu didn't buy it.
"Or what, Yuamu?"
"You're still hung up on him."
"Are you kidding? More like I'd like to hang him up like he did to Yudias at the dump!"
With "eternal friends" like Chupataro who'd lure you into a hole, freeze you, capture you with garbage disposal equipment, and threaten to throw your 8.88 million countrymen into a literal dumpster fire, who needs enemies?
"It's all right to be worried about him, you know?"
"You said it yourself, Yuamu! He's trouble! He tricked Yudias and tried to steal Valvelgear! He was manipulating me to obtain information on Earthdamar! I'm happy I'm away from that Chupa-yarou!"
Still not buying it.
"Ah! Attraction to bad boys! The true mystery!"
"Yuamu, are you for or against MIK blasting him into space? You're giving me mixed vibes here!"
You ought to be asking yourself this, Yuhi. Her glasses flashed. "I'm pro-whatever-puts-you-back-on-your-game, big brother."
"Cuz you're my sister?"
"Because I can't have you distracted and dragging down productivity. I've an up-and-coming company to run. It takes priority."
"Gee, thanks, Yuamu!"
"You're welcome. And I'm not 100% all work, of course. Obviously, I've got you covered. Otherwise, why would I have persuaded MIK to leave you two alone on your first date in the first place?"
Why indeed.
Yuhi stared at the ripples in his drink, then lifted his cup to Yuamu. "When I stop bein' indecisive and decide what I really want, I'll get back to you."
Their visitor from the Velgear Cluster charged through the door.
"Yudias?"
"Yuhi, I just received the debriefing! How horrible! You have a broken heart!"
Maki-san? Tazaki-san? Any of the eight seniors total they kept on staff? Nobody ever told Yuhi the elderly were such gossips!
"Do not despair, my friend! I shall acquire the 'tape dispenser' for you!"
No eternal friend? Huh! UTS!
"Yudias! Yudias! Yudias!" Valvelgear's passengers cheered.
"It's not broken like that, Yudias." Yuhi waved back and forth. "Tape won't help."
"If tape will not help, I shall scour the Earth supply facility for a device that will! Yuamu showed me! It is absolutely incredible!"
Yuhi sighed. Yudias was amazed by the shopping mall. Got it.
"The solution to Yuhi's broken heart isn't a device, Yudias. It's talking to the person who broke it."
"The person who broke it? Yuhi, who did this to you?"
"Chupataro-kun," Yuamu continued answering for him.
"Chupataro? UTS! I shall retrieve Chupataro at once!"
"Drop it, Yudias! MIK's got him!" Yuhi snapped.
"Drop…it?" Yudias mimed dropping something with his hands.
"He means MIK has Chupataro-kun in their custody, so don't bother wasting your energy."
"Then I shall speak directly to my fellow worthy warrior and convince him to release Chupataro!"
Manabu a worthy warrior? Yudias did possess a sense of humour!
"No, no, no! Yuamu, see what you've unleashed? Yudias, stay put!"
Yudias wasn't able to mime "stay put."
Part of Yuhi favoured Chupataro remaining locked up, while another part hoped MIK let him off the (in this case non-proverbial) hook. A third part leaned toward Chupataro going free so he could kick the liar's fake butt himself, and a fourth needled he wear Yuamu's Meeeg-chan cosplay while doing it!
The third option! The third option! Definitely the third option!
"I do not understand, Yuhi. If something requires repair, it should be repaired, should it not? Do you not want me to help repair your broken heart?"
"I'll deal with it myself, Yudias."
"Ohh! I see! You wish to prove your strength as a proud Duelist! Wow! I did not realize how profound human fearlessness is!"
Yuhi sighed again. Fearlessness.
"Yuhi-bocchama, you have a call!" Maki-san rolled up their conversation.
Yuhi raised the old rotary phone to his ear. "This is Ohdo Yuhi."
"Chupa, chupa? It's me, chupa."
"Goodbye! I'm hanging up, you mangy coyote bastard!"
"No, no, wait, chupa! Chupa only gets one call, chupa~!"
Chupataro could've called Zuwijo, yet he was calling Yuhi.
But Yuhi didn't know that.
"So? You interruptin' my day to beg me to bail you out?"
"Chupataro is sorry, chupa."
"For what?" Yuhi yanked the phone's coiled cord. The chupacabra had a long list of priors to be sorry about.
"Chupa?"
"What're you sorry for?"
The line was crickets. Yuhi readied an angry exit.
"Date 2, chupa! Chupa is sorry we didn't make it to a second date, cabra!"
"Keep talking. I don't promise to listen."
Now Yuhi was lying. He listened to all Chupataro's slapdash apologies. Whether he trusted they were sincere or whether Chupataro was straight-up dishonest – eh, maybe unimportant.
"Hey, interstellar kriminal! The MIK number is not a dating app!" Manabu's shrill rebuke erupted in the background.
