"If you'll excuse us ladies. We have to change." Fujiko said with a hint of sarcasm in her voice. "I don't have to tell you what will happen if I catch you peaking." "Awwwwww," Lupin cried with mock regret. As they entered the dressing rooms Fujiko spoke out. "For a ninja, you sure have good fashion sense." "Kitsune used to reward Arashi Hanniwa and me with dresses when we did well in training." "A fox brought you dresses?" "No, Kitsune is his nickname. Everyone calls him that or Kitsune-bi." "Fox fire, huh? Ever try tossing him a fried rat?" "Huh?" Fire blinkblinked. "Never mind. Hmmm, you are pretty well proportioned for your size. This should look good on you." Mean while Jiigen and Lupin explore the sporting goods section. "Women, I'll never understand them." Jiigen exclaimed. "Well at least they didn't go off to the bathroom together." Lupin replied." "Still I wish I could know what they were thinking." "Well I don't." Jiigen gave Lupin the best shocked look he could without actually showing his eyes. "Oh, come on Jiig. If we knew how they thought, it would take half the fun out of things, it's the very unpredictable nature of women that make them so interesting." "You may have a point there boss. But I always thought it was the soft skin and..." "Well that too." Lupin laughed. "Before we finish with this small wardrobe. I'd like to warn you about Lupin, he's not exactly good for steady relationships." Fujiko spoke seriously. Fire laughed "I don't know him all that well, but I'm not planning on staying here all that long. I just want to see how he works, pretty soon I'm going to use the artifact I stole to take me back home." "So why do you want to see Lupin pull off a heist. I don't know exactly. Lupin may be a bit lecherous, but he's honest about it, he strikes me as the paradoxical honest thief. And more than that, someone I'd like to be friends with. He seems to be loyal to his friends, I don't think Goemon or Jiigen would put up with him if he wasn't." Fujiko sighed "You're right about that, as a friend Lupin is outstanding. He's risked his life for me more time than I care to think about. I can't think of a better friend, but..." "But?" Fire smiled as she spoke. Fujiko screwed her face, imitating irritation "some times I just want to kill him!" "He's a guy, they'll do that to you." Fire giggled "You don't want to know how irritating Toshima can get." Ok folks, I should make this part of my disclamer, but I want you to know FEEDBACK HELPS, posative or negative. If you have a suggestion, or even a spelling correction, or a complaint about how I'm writing any of the characters (even Fire who is mine) tell me. As long as you are polite about it I'll listen and try to do something about it. If you have posative statements, I like those too. Well anyway enough of my babble. I hope you like what I've done so far, because with any luck, it will only get better. Till next time.... -----Marc (Kitsune) Seebass
