Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Romeo and Juliet: YGO Style ❯ Act 1, scene 1 ( Chapter 2 )

Act 1-Scene 1

Domino. Main Street.

 

(Enter Jounouchi and Honda)

Honda: That was a fun game of poker. I'm just hoping the cops won't hear about it.

Jou: Who cares? If that guy calls me a cheater one more time…

H: Don't push your luck Jou.

J: If he bugs me, I'll fight him all right.

H: Yea and get yourself killed.

J: I'm a speedy fighter. I don't think they could even catch me.

H: I've seen you move while watching TV and it aint pretty.

J: Yea, I'm tired then. Those thugs give me more motivation.

H: To move, you actually have to get exercise. You'd probably just run away.

J: I'll just stay away from him then.

H: Only a chicken would avoid a fight.

J: Oh ya? We'll just see, next time.

H: Just drop it Jou.

J: Yea, I don't think they could fight me anyway. I'd be covered in fangirls.

H: Well, you better get ready. Here comes Rex and Weevil of Montague.

(Enter Rex and Weevil)

J: I got my work cut out for me then, but I'd rather save my strength for some other time.

H: Going home, chicken-boy?

J: Yea it's safe there.

H: You're pathetic. Just get over here and fight.

J: OK, whatever. You take Rex and I'll fight off bug-boy.

H: Actually, I got a better idea. Let's just annoy them instead.

*Jou nods and flips them off as they walk past*

Rex: Did you just flip us off?

J: Yea, I did flip off…

R: Who did you flip off?!

J: [to Honda] Is that illegal or something?

H: No

J: [to Rex] No, I didn't flip you off, but I do flip off occasionally.

R: Do you fight much?

J: Only on my spare time.

R: Well, next time your looking for a fight, come find me.

J: You'd be no challenge.

(Enter Odion)

H: You better behave, Odion of Montague's coming.

J: Yea, he's pretty tough…

R: No way! He was supposed to be busy today.

J: He's right behind you.

*As Rex turns to look, Jou punches him in the face, and the fight begins*

Odion: What are you idiots doing? By the looks of it, wasting your time.

(Enter Pegasus)

Pegasus: [to Odion] What are you doing, talking to these lower life forms? This will drop your social status, Odion.

O: I was just trying to break up their fight.

P: Why? Peace?! That's crazy talk. I hate all you Montagues, so lets start this fight.

*They fight...which I'm too lazy to describe. Use your imagination! *

(Enter Seto and Mai of Capulet)

Seto: What's going on here? Do I need to kill someone?!

Mai: What good would that do?

(Enter Yami and Anzu of Montague)

Y: Seto! My worst enemy!

A: Please don't fight! Why can't we be friends some day?

[Enter Prince Shadi]

Shadi: Looks like these thugs are at it again. [To them] You're always fighting! Just because you tease each other, there's no reason for a fistfight! Stop it right now, Lord's Seto and Yami. You should be ashamed. You've caused a dishonorable fight only these punks should be capable of. If you ever do it again, I'll make sure you're jailed. Now, everyone out! Seto, you come with me, and Yami later this afternoon. [Looks around} Be gone, you idiots!

[Exit all but Yami, Anzu and Odion]

Y: Who started this? Speak now, Odion, were you a part of this?

O: I found Jou and Rex fighting, and I tried to stop it. Then Pegasus came and teased them. He also added to the fight. He hurt no one, but they seem pretty scared anyways.

A: Where's Malik? I'm just glad he wasn't in this.

O: I saw him this morning, before the sun was up. He was in a grove of sakura trees, looking westward. I tried to follow him but he saw me and ran into the woods. I though he wanted to be left alone, so I came back home.

Y: He goes there a lot lately, to think. When he comes home, he goes to his room, and locks the door and windows, making everything like night. I'm hoping you can find out what's going on.

O: Do you know why he does these things?

Y: No, he won't tell anyone.

O: Have you ever asked him?

Y: Yes, my friends and I have tried many times, but he keeps it a close guarded secret. We'd give anything to know what makes him sad! He should be happy and free.

[Enter Malik]

O: [To Y and A] Here he comes. Go back to your home and I'll find the reason for his sadness.

Y: I'd love to hear it from him, but he'd be more likely to tell a friend. Let's go, Anzu.

[Exit Yami and Anzu]

O: Good Morning, Malik.

Malik: I'm tired, how can morning come this early?

O: It's almost 10, you goof. You should be awake.

M: Yea you're right. I just can't concentrate these days. Was that my dad that just left?

O: Yes, it was. Tell me, what's on your mind that's making you so aloof?

M: Not having someone who could distract me.

O: Are you in love?

M: Yes, with a new guy who moved in near my house.

O: So, why haven't you made a move? Love should be exciting, not slow.

M: How can I? He doesn't notice me. I just want to get some food for now. I heard there was a fight here earlier. Why do these punks even bother? They create so much hate, when they should be happy. Instead it's just a big mess, a mix of emotions. The love I'm feeling knows no hate, and these street punks are just making it worse.

O: Sounds tough. Now I just need to find something to cheer me up.

M: What's wrong?

O: My own sadness, and pain of heart.

M: With the fighting? I know. It's hard to do anything. Love is joyous, not hateful and disrupting. (Direct quote, cuz I like how the description) Love is a feeling filled with sighs, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes, a sea nourished with lovers' tears. What else? A sensation that can drive you insane, but the exact opposite at the same time. I should be leaving now…

O: I'll come along. To leave you would be boring.

M: Why? I'm no longer the friend you once knew. This love has changed me; I don't even feel like Malik.

O: Tell me honestly, who do you love?

M: You want me to tell you all about what's going on in my head?

O: No, just tell me who it is.

M: Ok, you were right all along, I do love someone.

O: Want me to hook you guys up?

M: That would help, but I'd rather do this myself.

O: All right then, go on.

M: He's gonna be a tough one to get. Cupid's arrow won't affect him and he doesn't seem to want love. He won't even look at me, and when he sees me watching, he turns away. He's got a fine body, but he won't allow me to see it much.

O: So, he doesn't want anything to do with love?

M: Yea, it sucks that such a fine guy should be wasted. It only makes me more upset.

O: Just forget about him. There's other fish in the sea.

M: How can I stop thinking about him? Teach me.

O: Look around, there are people better than him.

M: I just can't help it. If you can find someone better looking than him, good for you. I refuse to believe there's one superior, no matter what you say.

O: I'll keep that in mind.
