♚ Yokohama was a vastly different place from Karakura Town. Most yokai walked amongst the population, while others were rather cunning at keeping their disguises under wraps. With his background and expertise with spirits, Ichigo had agreed to help Yusuke with a job involving a client to help things go smoothly... or so he thought

As the two were at the arcade enjoying a few games, hanging out as usual he’d feel his phone buzzing in his pocket. Slowly Yusuke took the device only to see that it was Mis Cygnus..and the text was regarding a girl…named Maya of all things. She informed him that she was acting strange, and that at the very least rings some bells.

[TEXT]: Here I thought you were gonna send me a nude.               The name isn’t familiar but I did warn a girl that her friends’ fucked               Well potentially…why?? Is she there??

“Yes..maybe she just needs an adult to take her somewhere safe. I left her in my car..” The girl said as she nervously began leading Cygnus to the area she had parked the vehicle. “She’s soo unhinged that I was scared people with good intentions might come over to check on her..but I saw her biting someone’s ear off earlier.” She spoke up as the sound of a car alarm echoes in the area.

The sound alone sinks the girl’s heart down to the pit of her stomach as she continues strolling forward until to find out the noise came from her car. With the windshield broken and small traces of blood was seen upon some of the shards but no Maya in sight.

What Kotone was describing wasn't normal. That wasn't her being sick but possessed. The moment they arrived at the girl's car her suspicions were confirmed true. She could sense it. It wasn't far. This was definitely an evil spirit.... But what kind? "Stay close to me."

[TEXT]: Stay out of the neighborhood its not safe

Sorry Megumi it looks like she'll have to break the promise about no fighting.

Crap it escalated that far already??? Ugh it looks like he'd have to pretty much leave the gang right now. Tch, he knew he should have just beat the ghost outta that girl when he had the chance...no point in thinking about it now.

[TEXT]: I know you have a mean left hook and all (from that ask i have to get to) but it isn't the time t' play hero.

Physical prowess wasn't going to work, and after excusing himself, he began to rush through the city. Trying to catch up with them.

"Oh noo oh no..Maya-chan, where could she b-" There was a gust of wind that blew through the area...as the wind settled, Yusuke's frame could be seen as he stretched his shoulder.

The arcade was nothing short of a half an hour away and Yusuke made the trip in a couple of minutes. "Oh..what'd ya know..didn't think you'd be out here..where your buddy anyway??" Yusuke asked.

"Urameshi-kun?? Wh-how?? Cygnus-san said you were at the arcade." The girl said.

“It sounds like one t’ me. Jus’ because we’re loan sharks doesn’t mean we gotta make ya deel like shit. Tch thre used t’ be a time none of this ever happened in the first place.” He came here for the gang violence and high-speed chases..well and to save his mother..nothing like this. But eventually, all children need to eat their vegetables. “What’d ya mean you live here? As in..this shop is where yer stayin’?? And they still bleed ya out dry like this?? Haven’t ya pleaded your case t’ the off- nevermind.” A woman..with a complaint..a busty one at that, he knows exactly what arrangements they’d make for her.

"Wait so I have to be the one who calls this whole thing off?" She asked a little confused as she remain curled up on the bed beside him. "What if..... I don't want to?" Oh how cheeky she was being while giving him such a cute and innocent look.

"The only thing that's really wrong here is that you're my boss... It's not like I have to do this to keep my job or for any special favor." She's more than earned her keep from working as his maid at the cafe. And that was well before they started sleeping together.

“Still unethical when ya think about it..A boss kink huh..” That’s when he pull the blanket and covers them…or just himself completely and her partially, keeping it just below her breasts. Tsuru on the other hand, slumps between her legs and presses soft kisses along her inner thighs, getting a mixed taste of both of them from the night before. 

──ཐི ྐ( ᶠᶸᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ! )ཋྀ ྐ─•──      IF HIS HEAD WASN'T SO THICK ──ཀཀཀ && if not used to being struck by someone actually trying to cause serious harm ──ཀཀཀ that could have actually seriously hurt ──ཀཀཀ but it reminded him of being hit with a tungsten cube && that annoyed him more than anything. HISSING LOUDLY, he licks his own palm and SMACKS the nude chest with significant strength.

        ❝ Everyone knows a vampire's true weakness is a hot guy .ᐟˎˊ˗ It's like using Kryptonite against Superman .ᐟˎˊ˗ You're tricking her with your womanly wilds .ᐟˎˊ˗ TRUE EVIL .ᐟˎˊ˗ ❞ ──ཀ♡ཀﮩ٨ـ 𖦤 ̊ ̟ ⊱༒︎

The guy retorts with a smack of his own against Yusuke’s chest. The smack practically echoes around them. Though, Yusuke was unmoved but he can pretty much acknowledge that the smack was pretty strong. “That’s proof that yer actually stronger than ya think. Most people break their limbs hittin’ me directly like that. But if hot guys are a weakness..then it explains a lot with your sister. And t’ think it all started with a spider.”

"Tch.... You just fell in love with my boobs at first sight...." She may have kept her head down when they first met but she could tell he was staring at her body when she stepped out from behind the counter for the first time.

“Well ya had nice boobs, never claimed t’ be a monk.” He said with a smile on his before a hand reached forward to grope her, further strengthening the claim for the sake of a laugh, maybe. The mood’s gotten a little too heavy soo this was his way of trying to lighten it even if it’s just a little. 

“Hmmm?? You let me worry about the bitch, as for my mom I’ve already got a plan..she’s comin’ with us. Not with us t’ live with us but ya know out of Tokyo. We’ll start a new life and everythin’...maybe I’ll jus’ stay away from jobs that has t’ do with cookin’ or baking. Everyone knows Tsuru’s pretty good at it…the last thing I need’re breadcrumbs. You’d probably have t’ say goodbye t’ your shop..least publicly speakin’.” 

Maybe there was a way to incorporate their supernatural talents in a more discreet way. Something that involved him handling cases and her little mastery over the supernatural meld together. “Though, yer gonna have t’ move first..the plan’ll be waaay too obvious if we both disappeared at the same time. Or maybe I leave and you can come move in with me after a year..do a little long distance relationship while we’re in different towns.” That's when he leans forward to lie on top of her, only to gaze into her eyes to see what she thought of the plan.

He came alone at her shop this time around, mostly because she's the only one he can trust. Once they got towards the back, as promised, he'd began to unbutton his dress shirt to reveal a mark of possession on his chest and abdomen. However, Tsuru was..quite normal..there was no irate behavior, he wasn't pale, nor did he even look malnourished. "I was hopin' you'd know exorcism."

UNPROMPTED

Her first instinct was to scream and cover her eyes. He was hot!!! Way, way, way too hot!! Why the hell was a loan shark this good looking? It was completely unfair and was nerve wracking having to deal with.

But luckily she was able to focus on the marks of possession and managed to not feint. "I-I.... Yes I do but how did you even get possessed? Y-you look completely fine b-besides the marks...." She gives a daring poke to his abs. And she felt the cold evil presence instantly. Ok he was definitely possessed no question about it.

"I-I'll exorcise it, c-consider it a f-freebie.... A-and a th-thank you for not calling me a weirdo like the oth-others." She added, slightly outing herself to be the owner the other members were talking about. She goes to the back and pulls out a small dagger and slices open her palm. "I-I'm sorry this is probably gross..." Kurai stammers as she swipes her bloody palm across the mark on his torso from the top all the way down to his waist and until she slowly pulls back as if she was grabbing something.... No wait, she WAS grabbing something! In her hand was the shadow being physically dragged from his body, and in one swift motion she lifts up and away. Like using a wax strip, the mark was pealed off with the shadow and wrapped up in the shadows grasp was a violent, and loud spirit.

Yeah he sees the issue, normal people aren’t supposed to be this immune to the side effects of a possession, especially when the demonic spirit was a rather strong one as well. Tsuru could of course blame multiple factors: 1. Being an insane fact that he’s far too intrigued with her appearance to really assess the danger of the situation. 2. He’s probably spiritually warded…oh yes, that’d be a good excuse..spiritual wards. 

Tsuru can show her the spirit cuffs and make up some mumbo jumbo..but she owns an occult store…there’s a huge chance she might know about reiki..after all Shintoism aligns with its lore. “I-..ya know how ghosts typically hate salt cause it’s pu- wait a minute. What’d you mean not callin’ you a weirdo?! Are you tellin’ me after all this time (2 months) You’ve been the weirdo they’ve been talkin’ about. I’ll get my boss t’ come here and apologize t’ ya.” Priority might have shifted there for a while.

"That's what I thought too but no apparently it's a thing. Or it was... I don't know how true that is today." She hoped the predator shifters would have evolved from eating prey but who knows these days.

The seiryu clan often visited the shop to collect taxes, they'd send a different goon every time, and they'd just go inside call the shop strange..call HER strange but take their money and go..however, it was different when this stranger stepped in. A blond young man..and he's looking around at the items as though he actually recognize them (because he does). "You got an actual Mandragon (mandrake) root?? Those are from the screamin' herbs right?? How the hell did ya managed t' get these without passin' out?"

UNPROMPTED

Like clockwork those goons would come in and collect their money. At the very least she was making enough to cover for it but she did have to live in her shop. She was used to them coming in, giving her a weird look as she hands them the money, and them quickly leaving. But this guy was different.... He was actually looking around and seemed genuinely interested in her little shop.

“Special earmuffs huh..that’s smart..ya definitely know what yer doin’..and ya got talismans and wards here too. Man if I knew this shop existed eight years ago it’d definitely make my life a lot easier. And well I know a friend who's into plants like these..pretty foxy.” Then again it probably wasn’t even established that long ago in the past. He’s looking at the shopowner..actually looking at her and wow, she’s one hell of a beauty.

With Kurai he wasn’t just some hotshot blond yakuza trying to make a name for himself, he wasn’t just the mazoku the matriarch just had to have because she failed in claiming his father. With Kurai he was just Urameshi Yusuke, and alas that’s the man he couldn’t be..not yet anyway.

It stung when she spoke about the wedding being in two months. A wedding he didn’t want. “Ugh don’t remind me..” What a mood killer, he wanted to give her the best rounds on this morning as he had done last night..with the mood gone he simply sits back up, fingers gliding through his dark locks. “I just needed a few more weeks and I’d get my seat with the big leagues..then before I knew it, a few months later that blasted woman gave shoves a damn positive test in my face.”

"You s-sure it's yours....?" There was always a possibility she could be lying about the child's origin, hell maybe she was even lying about being pregnant to begin with. That woman was a schemer who knows what she could have come up with to get him wrapped around his finger. Last night she had a terrible thought.... If the baby wasn't around Yusuke would be able to break free. All she had to do was get the baby out of the picture but.... Yusuke would never want her to do something like that. Not to an innocent life who never asked to be born.

“I can’t answer that with a sure answer..but she knew what I was up to..why come up with a bluff like that unless it was true? I jus’ never remembered sleeping with her..but there have been nights I don’t remember. I’d jus’ wake up in my apartment without knowin’ how I got there I can never tell you. There was a time I actually took a drug test..and ya wouldn’t believe what they found in my blood: Tramadol..a damn viagra.” Though he suspects the way she knocks him out would be magical rather than pharmaceutical, since most human drugs don’t work on him anymore.

He then turned to face her. Shit, his own tense behavior might have looked bad. “Don’t worry about it Hex, I don’t blame you. I loved ya the first time I wound up in your shop…well even if it was t’ tax ya but there was still somethin’ about ya..” He tried to remember the first time he laid eyes on her. “We already did an ultrasound and heard the heartbeat..I can’t jus’ abandon it..then I’d like him.” The man he hates more than anything else in this world.

"H-hey I said that as a joke ok? Mostly because I didn't think you'd actually catch feelings for me..." The ginger pouts as she rubs her shoulder that was practically littered in hickies and love bites he left on her.

HE’d chuckle before rolling himself ontop of her once more, letting her get a good look at his face..not to mention it made him all the more dominant in the moment. “I want ya t’ listen t’ me..listen real closely too.” His voice was even serious for a moment before a hand reaches upward to give her nose a small and gentle pinch and a grin returns on his face.

“I’m in my twenties and you were the first t’ get rid of my virginity. I’ve been through clubs, on the streets in red-light districts and I never fell for any of their flaunts then..and I’m not gonna fall for the flaunts of college kids in the states either. Because yer the one that I like which is precisely why ya gotta get outta here. Think about it..we get caught fuckin’ one time..even twice. What’s that gonna do?? Nothin’..students will be students..hormonal at that. They’ll just toss us back into our own dorms and slap a couple days of whatever punishment they have t’ dish out.” 

His words were soft as he’d lean forward to steal a kiss from her lips. “But if they found out you’ve been stayin’ here..well then we’d be screwed. This is the only school that was willin’ t’ take me. Understand that the entirety of Japan saw my rap sheet and said ‘screw you’. If I want that restaurant..this is my last chance. But don’t get me wrong-” That’s when he pauses once more to pepper her neck with kisses. “I choose you-” Another kiss. “Over a restaurant.” Then another along her chest. “Anyday-” One last one upon her lips.
