Title: Who is She? Pt. 3

“Getting Hiei to actually go near the medic unit is amazing,” Yusuke snorted as he watched Xander go through the katas he had learned.

“He wanted to know my skills and the only way to do so had been to get clearance from them and Koenma,” Xander replied as he slipped into the last position. Yusuke nodded with a smirk on his lips as he pulled out a cigarette, sticking it in the corner of one mouth. Lighting it, he pulled a bit of the smoke into his lungs as the other man frowned lightly at the cigarette.

“I keep forgetting you’re a youkai and the stuff you smoke is better then the crap humans make,” Xander said, shaking his head and walking back over to him. Plopping down next to Yusuke and taking a sniff of the sweet smoke, he asked, “What is that? One of Kurama’s mixes?”

“Yep. He’s got a business going with his cigarettes,” Yusuke drawled, showing Xander his pack with the words ‘Yoarettes’ across the top and ‘Mali Mali Blend’ across the bottom.

“I have a feeling that the tobacco industry threw a fit before trying to make a deal with him,” Xander snorted as he opened his water bottle. “I end up dead and the demon underworld comes out. What a fuckin’ kick.”

“It was like your death was the lynch pin in a way that the barriers between the Niginki and the Makai wasn’t,” Yusuke hummed, blowing out along stream of smoke.

“Quite possible. My contacts hated the fact that I died the way I did,” Xander drawled, eyeing the pack. Yusuke offered it, allowing the human to take one of the cigarettes and light it. They both sat and smoked, allowing the sweet mix calm their minds. “I’ve been asked to go to Sunnydale and set a few things straight.”

“Oh Yeah?” Yusuke asked, raising an eyebrow at the other man.

“Yeah. Wanna come with me?” Xander asked, Yusuke smirking in return.

“Why not? I’m bored enough and so are the others,” Yusuke chuckled, Xander smiling at his friend.

“Sounds good to me.”
