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 12: The Case of the Winged Serpent

"A window washer, a patron at Umai Diner, and a sunbather. What's the connection?"

"They all enjoy getting out once in a while?"

"This is serious, Yuhi. We're trying to establish a timeline and motive."

"It is quite the conundrum. Why would anyone attack a window washer, a restaurant patron, and a sunbather consecutively? There does not seem to be anything in common between them." Yudias held his chin.

"And I repeat: Isn't it that they all enjoy getting out once in a while? Yuamu, why're we focusing on this, and not on duelling at the Coruffium today? Shouldn't we get back to our search for the missing girl? Tazaki-san and the others can handle this request!"

"Mutsuba Town is under siege. This request comes from the President of Mutsuba Heavy Machinery herself! Not to mention, Kirishima-chan hasn't paged us back on his pager yet!"

"The President of Mutsuba Heavy Machinery? That President of Mutsuba Heavy Machinery?"

"Is there another President of Mutsuba Heavy Machinery, Yuhi?"

"I dunno, Yuamu! I was just checking! Anyway, what'd the witnesses say?"

"They heard a loud screech. They describe the attacker as serpent-like with large feathered wings."

"Doesn't that sound an awful lot like your Dual Coretls?"

Yuamu withdrew the card out of her Deck to inspect it. "Hmm…You may be onto something, Yuhi!"

"A Monster Card could transcend Solid Vision and enter the real world with Egil Velgear! Perhaps Zuwijo's somehow involved!"

Yudias stepped forward. "If Zuwijo is involved, permit me to be the vanguard for this mission!"

"Yudias…" Yuamu pondered his appeal.

"That's incorrect, chupa! Zuwijo isn't the mastermind behind the attacks, cabra!"

"CHUPATARO?" Yuhi was shocked to see him.

"My eternal friend!" Yudias brightened.

"The culprit is a Quetzalcoatl alien, chupa!"

"A QUETZALCOATL ALIEN, YOU SAY?"

"You've heard of them, Yudias?"

"Indeed. They hail from the Quetzalcoatl Star. Documented to value ceremony, but they are also famously nervous eaters who will devour anything in their path."

"You've seen this Quetzalcoatl alien around, Chupataro-kun?"

"More than that, chupa! That bloody snake stole Chupa's yakitori, chupa!"

"Ughh! Another yakitori alien? The last time we took a yakitori alien case, all I got was this dumb, annoying boyfriend!" Yuhi groaned, signalling Chupataro with his thumb.

"Yuhi, I am perplexed. Are you and my eternal friend Chupataro not in a love-ing relationship anymore?"

"It's a joke, Yudias! He was aiming to be funny, chupa!"

"You were, Yuhi? Ha ha ha, then! Ha ha ha!"

"Chupataro, what're you even doin' here? Didn't you claim you were meetin' someone?"

"Chupa did, chupa! Swung by UTS to buy lunch, but the Quetzalcoatl alien stole it, so Chupa came to alert you after Chupa saw it flying into a sewer pipe, cabra!"

"A sewer pipe? In-ter-esting!" A streak of silver reflected off Yuamu's glasses.

"Ack! Gross! I'm not goin' down into the sewer, Yuamu!"

"Why not, Yuhi? We've been following up on Goha Yuna-chan's disappearance every day in the Underground Alien Residential Area! How's this any different?"

"How's this any different? Yuamu, the Alien Residential Area is a walled district with a skyscreen and a subway you can ride to th'front door! The sewers are a stinkin' cesspool where there's raw sewage and human…GAAH! I AIN'T GOIN' DOWN THERE IF YOU PAID ME!" Yuhi cupped his hand over his mouth, feeling he might upchuck, as was the precedent set by his Earthdamar.

"But Yuhi, if we do not pursue the attacker, the people in town – the aliens in the Alien Residential Area – everyone will be at risk!" Yudias guilted him.

"The President is paying us! We're going down into the sewers to find this alien! End of discussion!"

"I DON'T WANNA BE AN ALIEN'S MEAL!"

Chupataro's eyes became dashes and dots. "You've been Chupa's before, chupa."

"Only my blood! Here, I might get eaten whole, my mind and my body! It's worse than Egil Velgear!"

"You're overreacting, chupa! It'll probably only peel your skin off like an orange, chupapapa!"

"CHUPATAROOOO! WHY D'YA HAFTA PUT THAT IN MY HEAD?"

"Agh! Move, you two! We gotta catch it before it strikes again!" Yuamu distributed flashlights out of her bag.

Despite Yuhi's crying, the four of them descended a ladder into the sewer. However, as Chupataro called out upon tracking the scent of his yakitori to the scavenger who stole it…

"My yakitori, chupa! My sauce, chupa! Someone beat us to the Quetzalcoatl alien, cabra!"

"Who?"

"What IS that?" Yuhi jerked backward.

A foamy, creamy, marshmallowy blob of stuff was dissolving itself over the Quetzalcoatl alien. It was a white heap of repulsive, and it was eating the winged serpent!

Yuhi's hair pinged.

"We have another alien in our midst, eh?" his sister commented.

"This pile of ice cream?"

"This sentient pile of ice cream."

"Chupa's yakitori…" Chupataro raged. "IT'S OVER FOR YOU, CABRA!"

"Chupataro, wait!"

No good. Chupataro had ejected from his robot and darted into the other alien's amorphous mass, clawing chunks of it into his mouth.

"That just goes to show you: Everything is food for something else."

"And Chupataro is the top of the food chain, apparently."

"I'm gonna hurl!" Yuhi bent over again.

"If you're going to do that, do it away from this goop, Yuhi! So Chupataro-kun doesn't accidentally –"

"BLEGGGGGHH!" Yuhi threw up anywhere anyway.

"Oh dear, big brother."

"What do we do now? The Quetzalcoatl alien is no more."

"We return to the surface, notify the President the public menace has been dealt with, and collect our fee, of course, Yudias! Yes, yes. All that mon-ay!" Yuamu rubbed her money-grubbing hands together.
