Yusuke noticed that the woods were a little darker in this part of Wonderland. Most of the leaves kept out the sun, save patches of sunlight through the holes in the foliage.
" White Rabbit!" Yusuke called, doubting Hiei would answer him. " White Rabbit! Hiei!"
" Hey!" A female voice hissed, " Put a lid on it, Kid! We’re trying to sleep!"
" Must you be so mean to everyone, Dee?" A Male voice responded. Yusuke peered back and gasped.
" Not you too!"
" He’s raising his voice to me!" The female scowled.
" You probably surprised him," the male replied.
" This can’t be happening." Yusuke muttered. There, before him were two other creatures of the Makai he’d never thought he’d see in his dreams. There were Mukuro and Yomi, both dressed in red suits with blue gloves.
" Mukuro? Yo--Yomi?" He shook his head. " No, wait. Let me guess.....uhm....I give up."
" He just pointed a finger at me!" Mukuro gasped. " Did you see it?!"
" From what I can see he didn’t do anything," Yomi replied calmly. Yusuke could only shake his head again. Of course Yomi didn’t see it!
" I...didn’t mean anything by it." Yusuke replied.
" See?" Yomi smiled. " He even apologized. What a nice young man."
Had this been a normal situation, Yusuke would have handled it diffrently. But it was obvious this Mukuro was not at all like the real one. It was only obvious, as so far, none of the people he met so far were their normal selves.
" Who are you guys?"
" Nosey little pervert, aren’t you?!" Mukuro snapped, slapping Yusuke’s hand away from her.
" I am Tweedle Dum," Yomi replied, grabbing Mukuro by the back of her suit and lifting her up by her collar. " This is my sister, Tweedle Dee. You must excuse her. She’s very...exciteable."
" I see." Yusuke took a step back. " What are you two doing here?"
" We live here, Baka!" Tweedle Dee hissed, struggling to free herself from her "brother."
" We don’t get many visitors and we were curious." Tweedle Dum Yomi replied.
" Uh.....huh." Yusuke nodded slowly. " I’m ....looking...for the White Rabbit."
This was too repetitive for him and he was beginning to feel very stupid. " Which way did he go?!"
In no time, Tweedle Dee Mukuro dropped from her blazer and grabbed Yusuke, lifting him up with one hand. " You stuck up little snot! I’ll teach you a thing or three! Just stay right there and let me rearrange your face!"
Yusuke shut his eyes and braced himself for a punch, only to feel himself be dropped onto his rear. He opened his eyes to see Tweedle Dum Yomi holding Tweedle Dee Mukuro back.
" Would you...stop! What would Mom say if she saw you like this?"
" Argh!" Tweedle Dee Mukuro screetched. " This isn’t fair! Mom always like you best!"
" She bought you the ice cream maker!" Tweedle Dum Yomi retorted.
" But she bought you the puppy!" Tweedle Dee Mukoro whined, faking tears.
" This is seriously *%#%$* up!" Yusuke noted to himself and turned. He caught a familiar pink blur hopping out of the bushes, who dropped his watch.
" Hiei!" Yusuke called. The Hiei Rabbit grabbed his watch and peered back at Yusuke. " Kisama! Stop following me! I’m LATE!" He shoved the face of the clock into Yusuke’s face. The hands were crooked and it ran backwards, numbers decending rather than acending.
" See that? It says I’m late!"
" For wha...." Before Yusuke could finish, the White Rabbit Hiei was off like a shot again.
" Dammit!" Yusuke growled. " This is just stupid! I want to go home! I don’t care where the Hell you’re going!"
