Title: School Theater 5
Summary: From now on, the trouble begins for real, since their teacher is… well, not available at the moment after her little encounter with the Yamis and the shadow realm.
Anzu will appear a lot more from now on, to go after Yami and Bakura, and Ryou and Yugi will come to a weighty conclusion.
//Yami to Hikari//
/Hikari to Yami/
(Comments from me)
'Thinking'
”shouting”
5. The decision of two Hikaris
At the very next day, Anzu was long before the others in school and sat on her table to 'think'.
True to be told, it was questionable if she even went home the former day, or if she simply fell asleep where she fell down from her tree.
Her clothes certainly looked like it, with all the wrinkles and the dirt on it, but for once she didn't care about her looks, she had more important things to think about.
Before her on the table where a lot of pictures laid out, all of them snapshots from Yami doing different things.
Talking with his friends, dueling, fighting with Bakura (she nearly drooled at that picture) walking on the street, helping in the game-shop or eating lunch…
It bothered her greatly that the others where also on every one of the pictures, but that can't be help at the moment.
But it was a small comfort that because of that she had several pictures of Bakura as well, even if she never went for him until lately/yesterday.
Now all she had to do was to find a way to get rid of Yugi and Ryou who ruined every one of those great pictures with their mere presence.
As soon as they are somewhere around, they get instantly the full attention for Yami and Bakura, and that had to be change at firstly.
Because the only one they should pay attention to was she, as it is right and proper to do for her boyfriends!
They should just have eyes for her and her beauty!
And not for some little boys bustling around them and always getting in her way when they are flirting with her!
She didn't noticed it herself, as she started to laugh maniacally while she thought about a way to keep the Hikaris unnoticed away from the school for some time.
Just long enough for her to make move on them, or for them to talk to her.
But it can't be too apparent, it must be something that looked like an accident or so, but nothing they can track back to her in any way.
Because if she draw too much attention or she did it too obvious, Yami and Bakura would get suspicious, and their protectiveness would kick in full force.
(And wouldn't we all love to see that?!)
And she certainly didn't want that to happen.
Who know what the Yamis would do to her, even if it were an accident, since they would never hurt her intentionally...
(Of course not... For Bakura, torture and murder don't count as 'hurting someone', but as fun and entertainment...)
Anzus classmates stood (once again) clear away from her, since they had the sneaking suspicion that she may have some infectious disease or something alike.
Laughing like that can't come from someone normal and sane, after all.
”I will get you both, we are meant to be together, and nothing and nobody will get in our way, you will soon understand that.
And then we are together forever.
All over the world will be peace and at our wedding, everyone will hold hands in friendship, and... ”
One of the other girls in the class, until now busy with talking and copying homework, felt particular brave today and tapped her cautiously on the shoulder:
”Ähmm, Anzu? I really hate to disturb your... ” she looked over the photos, everyone of them had around Yami and Bakura's heads a big, red heart, and 'I love you's
”Ähmm, Anzu? I really hate to disturb your... ” she looked over the photos, everyone of them had around Yami and Bakura's heads a big, red heart, and 'I love you's
”...whatever it is, what you are doing there.
But Yami and Bakura are with Yugi and Ryou, you remember that, right?
And I really doubt that there is anything at all that you are able to do to change that fact. All you can do is making a fool out of you and be the nuisance you always are and bother them until they snap!”
Anzu starred at her with big eyes: ”What the hell are you talking about?! Why should they ever want that ugly little dwarfs, if they can have dearest me?
Of course they are mine, you are just jealous because you are not as beautiful as I am, and that's why you're saying such terrible, untrue things, because you want them all for yourself!
And now stop spreading such mean lies, or Yami and Bakura will have your head for it!”
And again she started to giggle insanely and skipped happily out of the room, much to the relief of her classmates. It is a long time until the bell will ring for the first class, so nobody held her back.
And even if the bell had long rung, they had let her gladly leave the room. Even the school, since they don't like her at all.
The girl got back to her friends: ”I tried to warn her, but now she is demented for good! She is beyond remedy...”
”Well, forget her; at last she is gone now.”
”Yeah, we all know what happen if you mess with Yugi or Ryou...”
(Everyone knows to whom the Yamis belong to, even if they don't go to school... At last not to learn something…)
^^^^^^^^^^
Elsewhere:
^^^^^^^^^^
Behind the school are the construction works for the brand new stage in full swing, long before the first students even arrived. Like always Kaiba was in a hurry to get the work done as fast as possible. Everyone there was busily running around and in the general chaos no one noticed the two teens sneaking around with identical grins on their faces.
”Bakura, are you sure you can do that? There are a lot of workers, one of them will notice something.” asked Malik quizzically and ignored the sore look he got from Bakura for such a stupid question.
”Of course I can do that! I'm not the king of thieves for nothing! Let a professional do that!”
Casually he strolled by the table where the construction plans where innocently waiting just for him, without looking at them or stop by the table.
And then the plans where not there anymore.
Armed with a pencil they spread them out in a quiet corner, and no one beside Bakura saw Maliks evil smirk, matched only by one Marik Ishtar.
(And some devils deep down in hell)
”What are you doing there anyway, Malik?” asked Bakura curious as he looked over the shorter boys shoulder, while the tomb keeper studied the blue papers before him intently.
”Oh, not really much. Just a little change here and there. They don't know a shit about how to do that properly!” and he added swiftly a few lines, and razed some others out, giggling quietly.
”A trap door here, a hatch there, here a net and there a pitfall... Done!”
Bakura chuckled as he saw the few little details the Hikari added.
”And the best thing is, Anzu is free for the kill!...”
”Yeah, who would have thought that Yugi of all peoples would suggest such a thing! He is always one of the first to protest if we say something about murdering innocents...”
"But then again, 'it' isn't what you call innocent."
For a moment both of them looked satisfied at the changes, before they rolled the planes back up to return it unnoticed.
”We have no reason to be upset about it... It isn't like we like her all the much. So it's just a benefit for us.”
”Yeah, one less to bother us if we hurt her.”
”Hey! What are you doing there!? This is a construction site, and not a playground! Now go!” yelled one of the workers suddenly at them, just as Malik was about to lay the plans back on the table.
”Keep your hands off of our plans; they are no children's toys!”
”Then it's a good thing that we are no children. And we where just looking a little!”
”You can't understand it anyway, so get lost, you two, and be quick about it!”
He tried to snatch his plans away from the tanned teen, as suddenly a bright light was behind him and revealed the form of the one and only... Marik.
The psycho looped an arm under Maliks arms and over his chest to lift him up like a little cat.
For a moment he forgot everything around him as he rubbed his cheek in soft hair, while his Hikari dangled with his feet in the air and was pouting cutely.
But then Marik noticed then man reaching out for his light, and he got a dangerous glint in his narrowed eyes.
”Mine!” he growled possessively and squeezed Malik like a Teddy bear, ”He's mine, you can't have him!”
(Here he goes again.)
The poor man eyed a little unsure and forlorn his poor construction plans, which where all he really wanted at the moment, before he carefully said: ”I don't even want him, I just want those construction plans he has in his hand!”
To be sure, he showed his palms as if he was talking with a dangerous animal or an insane being or something alike.
Who knows on what kind of drug that guy was, with this crazy hair, and the general look of him.
And Bakura with his sniggering wasn't of any help to calm the workers flattering nerves either.
”You don't want him?”
”No, of course not!”
”Do you want to say he don't is pretty? Not cute? Not hot? Or sexy? Or…”
”No!"
"No???" he stroked with one Hand over Maliks chest, while he pressed him with the other more against his body, ignoring his hissing and struggling with a sly grin.
One eyebrow rose at the worker, who paled visible under the glare.
"Yes! I mean, he is, I think, but I don't...” he said quickly, before he realized what he said to that blonde psycho and his white-haired friend.
”HA, I know it! You want to steal him from me! Admit it, you mortal little bug, you will never touch him, you are not worthy!”
By now Bakura was very nearly rolling on the floor laughing his ass of by all the stuttering and stammering the man did. The poor worker didn't know what to say anymore without him getting killed by this lunatic.
And Malik just shook his head and gave up his struggling to get free. It was always the same with his boyfriend; he just loved to play that game with strangers.
”You looked at him! Admit it, or I will eat you!” hollered the Yami, bearing his fangs.
What is a Hikari supposed to say to that?
"But I really don't want anything from him beside my plans!"
"Lair! You just want to steal my Hikari-Pretty!"
And so Malik throw the papers in his hand to the poor man so he could leave, before he risked his neck with his careless talk.
As that was done, he let himself be dragged off by his Yami, all the while hanging from his arms and looking slightly pissed...
”Hey, Marik, will you ever stop that?” asked Bakura, still chuckling, and Marik shook his head: ”No, why should I? It is way too funny too see that look on their faces when they realize that I will be mad no matter what they say!”
In the mean time, Anzu came up with a 'plan' to make Yugi and Ryou stay away from the school and 'her' Yamis for a while.
It completely escaped her memory that both of them where just here in school to visit their lights, not to see or (god forbid) talk with her.
Quickly she got down to work and readied everything for Ryous arrival, for he is the first to deal with.
But Yugi will be the next soon enough...
Where she got the necessary things from, and why she had them with her in school, one will never know...
(Do we even WANT to know?)
But one thing we know for sure, she had pink hair dye with her, and now she was searching for a good place from where she could pour it down.
Staying there she giggled (insanely) and waited for her first victim to dye his hair bright pink. With a little luck he would run straight home, crying his eyes out and hiding under his bed, since surely no boy would want to walk around with pink hair...
She didn't have to wait for long, since Yugi and Ryou, too, came a little earlier today. They had to compare homework with each other, and copy everything they didn't get down the previous day.
Because at some point two certain Yamis got bored and decided that their lights have done enough homework, and it is time to play now.
And it is hard to say no to a Yami who wanted attention, and wanted it now…
But suddenly Ryou jerked back as he felt something wet on his hair.
”Wähhh, I think a bird just...” but luckily it wasn't THAT bad, it was just Anzus hair dye running down over his head, and Yugi told him just that:
”Don't worry, it's just paint. Or something. Its pink…?” and they went to the bathrooms to get the slobbery stuff out of before it could seep down on his clothes as well.
But unfortunately, that just spread it around and soon the gentle Hikari stood there with dripping wet, pastel pink hair.
Yugi shook his head: ”Sorry, Ryou, but I don't think we can do anymore without shampoo.”
They tried it with normal soap, but it was just a little use, and after a while they had to give up for the moment.
Ryou looked sadly in the mirror: ”I really hope that ugly stuff ever comes out properly! You can see it so easy on white...” he whined sore.
How could anyone do that to his poor hair, and who!
Soothingly Yugi patted his shoulder gently: ”Well, you have to see the bright side: At last it was no bird!” he said on their way out to go to their current classes. They forgot all about their homework in all the chaos.
”Oh my GOD!” shrieked Anzu in faked horror, as she saw the two Hikaris in the next break in the hall; Yugi out of breath, and Ryou just out from the bathroom after another futile try to get is hair back to white:
”What happened to your hair?! You should better go home and not coming back until that is gone in a few weeks! Don't worry, in the meantime I will take care of Bakura for you, so he wouldn't feel so lonely.”
Both of them shoot each other a quizzical look, asking without worlds if she finally lost it, before Ryou shook his head:
”No, thanks, don't worry about me. I will try it later again; maybe it will come out...”
”Dam... I mean, very well! Great…” and with that she run away, leaving behind two surprised teens.
”What do you think, where you her actual target?” asked Ryou and Yugi nodded:
”Yes, I guess, and she just made a mistake, since she is always after Yami, and sees me as an obstacle.”
”Yes, I guess, and she just made a mistake, since she is always after Yami, and sees me as an obstacle.”
There was no doubt for them that Ryous new hair color was her doing. Who else would be so stupid and carry pink dye around to cast it over other peoples head.
Meanwhile Yugi regained his breath but refused to tell the other boy why he was a little late to meet him after the bell rang for break.
But before Ryou could ask him more about it, or wonder more over Anzus questionable behavior, they heard a very angry voice shout:
”Anzu, let go of my arm, I would like to keep it on my shoulder!” they heard Yami bellowing, followed by the roaring laughter of a certain tomb robber.
Around the next corner, Yami tried desperately to dislodge Anzu from his arm, where she was clinging like mad and with every intention to never let go of him.
Yami looked (very) desperately, while Bakura was laughing and pointing at them.
(He's never one to help others, is he?)
”Bakura, shut up, or I'm forced to hurt you, badly and painfully!
And you get lost as well, witch, I just want to have some peace from you both!” he hissed at them, but none of them was reacting to his threat.
Seeking for any help he could, get, he looked around for his Hikari.
//Yugi... make it go away!... please...// craved Yamis voice through the mind link. He couldn't see his little light, but he could feel that he was somewhere near. And surely he was way a better help to flee the clinging nightmare as Bakura was.
Yami snorted for a moment
'When was that filthy thief ever a help! HE can just help people loose their possession and their patience and sanity!'
But before he could really yell at her Anzu came off all by herself. Much to Yamis and Bakuras amusement she dropped very ungracefully with a yelp on her ass.
She looked with big eyes from the pharaoh to the thief king.
”But you where waiting for me, right?! Who would you wait for when not me, there is no one in the whole school who would deserve it more then me, after all!”
”Ever heard about our Hikaris?! Small, sweet, cute, smart, delicate, a little too trustingly for their own good... We are waiting for them, not you!!!” told Bakura her with a satisfied grin as he saw the tears in her eyes:
”I know you don't mean that! Have you even seen Ryou today? His hair is pastel pink, and now he really looks like the freak he is. You don't want to be seen with him, trust me!”
”I know you don't mean that! Have you even seen Ryou today? His hair is pastel pink, and now he really looks like the freak he is. You don't want to be seen with him, trust me!”
Bakura narrowed his eyes dangerously and was about to ask/yell/murder her, but Anzu jumped up suddenly and clapped her hands happily, her fake tears forgotten:
”I know, I know, I go and find a teacher! Maybe we already have costumes, Mrs. Gandon mentioned it, and I can try and find them!” she declared and tried to give Yami a kiss on the cheek, but he dogged her successfully.
Anzu giggled stupidly and dared petting his head, just to get her hand swept away.
”You are sooo adorable when you're acting all shy and sweet, Yami-dear.” she squealed and, wisely, she got lost before he could commit murder in public.
Anzu ran back the way she came and again run into Yugi and Ryou: ”Nice color, twerp. I thought you where long gone. Home, or in whatever hole you are living!”
Yugi was surprised that his gently friend could look so angry, but then the look was gone, as well as the 'thing', and Ryou changed the topic so fast, for a moment Yugi didn't know what he was talking about:
”Are you going to do something about her?” Ryou asked ”You know she will go after Yami whenever she gets a chance. That thing with my hair is just the beginning, and we both know it! She will cling at his arm and will be all over him, just like now, whenever she gets a chance. And you don't mind it? Not even a tiny little bit?”
It was hard to picture that, but then again...
This was Yugi we are talking about...
”Well, you know I could never be angry at someone or hurt someone on purpose...” but his ingenuous sighing was interrupted and drowned by a loud, metallic snap and a high-pinched ”Ouch!”
”What was that?” asked Yami puzzled as he finally found his lighter half, as the sounds where repeated, and they where getting louder, too!
They where somewhere near.
'Snap'
”Ouch!”
That sounds like Anzu!
”Maybe we should look?” asked Bakuras hopefully, and his grin told them that he was not going to help her.
More of that metallic snapping and clanking was heard, followed by loud shouts of pain.
Yugi grabbed his friends before they could get away and dragged them in another direction:
”That's nothing. Really. And much less a foothold trap. Nope. Not the slightest bit...” he babbled and tried to shove his Yami the other way, and dragging Ryou and Bakura at the same time at their sleeves along with him.
This was particular hard because the thief was hell-bent to know who was suffering.
And how he could make it worse.
”Hey, what are you doing here, you have to see that!”
Marik and Malik darted their way; laughing, like usually, insane, just in time for Bakura to break free and following them.
”Someone set up a lot of foothold traps in the whole hall around Anzus locker, and stupid as she is she pats in every single one. They way she is jumping around, she will also soon fall down the stairs. Come on, you have to watch!”
Loud clattering, crashing, and shrieking was heard.
”I correct myself: She already is falling down the stairs.”
”Yeah!” cheered Yugi happy, but clapped quickly his hand over his mouth and corrected: ”I mean, is she hurt? I hope she is not hurt, right, that was what I said. Hope she's not hurt...” and he waved his hands around as everyone starred at him in surprise.
Lately the gentle Hikari showed a brand new side of him.
Normally only Yami could be so happy when someone (or Anzu) got hurt.
Or better, Bakura and Marik.
”What?” he asked innocently and looked up at them with big puppy dog eyes, he pouted and twisted one of his bangs between his fingers,
”Did I do something wrong?” he asked shyly, but the twinkle in his eyes belied his sweet tone and his harmless looks.
”I think now we finally have tainted even the last Hikari.” whispered Bakura to Marik, who nodded fierce: ”Yes, it was not easy, but noting is impossible for mighty Yamis such as us!”
Ryou slapped his forehead, and Yami hugged his Hikari comfortingly, rubbing his back soothingly:
”Yugi is not tainted, so shut the fuck up or that will be your last words!”
”And why don't you go out of my way before I step on you?!” mocked Bakura, as always not backing down from a challenge.
But before something serious could happen between them, the bell rang for the next class, and Marik pouted slightly:
”Hey, I was about to watch that!” he bickered at the bell ”There ought to flow blood!”
Malik gave his insane half a slap on the head: ”Come on, the class starts.”
”But I don't want to, I want to watch when they kill each other, and tear their tummies open and make the blood splash all over the wall! And when they tear out each others beating heart I can steal them and put them in your microwave, we put potatoes and salad together and then we can eat them outside!
That is a lot more funny than your stupid math!”
Ryou shuddered and Yugi turned a little green while the other Yamis glared at him: ”Look what you did to my Hikari!” they said in unison, and Malik dragged his deranged boyfriend away. They could see a wide smirk on his face as the smaller one whispered something in his ear, and they didn't even want to know what was said.
Bakura yawned demonstrative bored: ”Time for my catnap, wake me up at lunch break.” an then he was gone in his soul room.
With neither Yami nor Bakura around to the time passed quick and quite, especially since Anzu was nowhere to be found as well.
Not that someone would be actually looking for her...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lunch hour:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Offended Anzu hobbled after her accident with the stairs, after which she laid downstairs until now with no one to help her, through the halls. She was searching for the two Yamis to cry her eyes out on their strong shoulders.
That designing attack had to be a mistake, because who in his right mind would ever dislike her? She was always friendly to everyone, never said a mean word, was the most beautiful girl in this school and always tells the whole world about the great importance of friendship!
And for a last time she will try to convince Bakura to let her play the Juliet.
Surely he will give in this time, a man like would never wear a filly dress, right?
(Well, she doesn't know about the power a sweet, pouting little Hikari can have over his Yami :-P)
But if that fails, than one thing is for sure: He is doing that to prove her how well he would look on stage and that somewhere deep inside him is a hopeless romantic waiting to be discovered…
Kaiba had told the teachers that they would cope with everything without a teacher watching over them, and since he managed his own company as well as school and his little brother, it was no problem.
One of the teachers found a box with all the costumes, carefully prepared from Mrs. Gandon, so there was no need to worry about that either.
”Hey, you two! Wait up! You are the volunteers from the theater-cast, right?” called the man out to them, as he saw Yami and Bakura standing in the hall, waiting for them to turn around.
”That depends on what you call volunteer this times, mortal.” growled Bakura and earned a weird look from the teacher and an elbow in his rips from Yami.
”Yeah, whatever you say... Anyway, here are your costumes, I heard you finally want to start with the rehearsals, and that way you can get accustomed to all the frills. We can't wait to see it at the school festival in a few weeks.”
And with that he gave each of them a big, colorful heap of fabric and disappeared quickly, since the white haired one looked as if he wanted to bite any moment...
And today was teacher on the menu...
Yami shook his head and chucked at Bakuras face as he starred terrified at the dress in his hand like it was a dangerous, poisonous animal: ”You know that starring is for no use, right? Because in the end you will wear it anyway!”
The dress in Bakuras hand was a pale pink with a lot of white underskirts, and many frills and ribbons and pearls.
(I just made that dress up, because in the move there isn't a decent dress for Bakura to get nightmares about it!)
Yami had a little more luck with his costume, it consisted in dark pants and a light shirt with puffy sleeves and the collar had frills and the buttons where sparkling.
"But I don't wanna!" murmured the tomb robber unhappily, as he thought about how weird he will look in that terrible thing. 'If it was at last Ryou who had to wear this shit, at last he would look cute in it…' he grumbled sulkily.
"Why are you doing it then?" teased Yami with a wide grin, even when he knows the answer pretty well. He was just grateful that he at last could wear pants. He really didn't want to wear a dress or skirt in front of the whole school. Who know what they are capable of…
But suddenly Bakura, too, had a grin on his face, as he saw something nasty, brown bouncing in their direction.
"Don't be that gleeful, twerp, because there is your own personal nightmare coming our way!" giggled Bakura while he was waiting that Yami got 'attacked' yet again:
"Ya-mi! Ba-ku-ra! Where are you?! Don't hide from me, don't be so shy! Come out, come out wherever you are?!" they heard a well-known, piercing voice very near them, and a few windows became long cracks from the high-pinched tone.
Anzu blinked puzzled up at Bakura as she heard his strange comment, before she happily ignored it (again) and she beamed blissfully blind up at them.
It throws herself at Bakuras neck, who gave a startled, very un-Bakura-like squeak.
Something was definitive wrong here, since he was sure as hell not the 'running meter' so he should normally be perfectly save from the insane girl!
'It isn't as if I look like him, so what the fuck happens here?!' Bakura swore and gave Yami a helpless glare, which was pointy ignored.
"Just who I was looking for, Baku-chan! Its great that we casually walk into each other here, I have to talk with you, its very, very important, my dear, sweet, little friend." she purred.
'Why the hell is she ignoring the damn pharaoh when he is standing right beside her? And sweet? Little? I'm going to kill the evil witch!' and he shuddered in disgust as he tried not to throw up.
Or murder her.
Or both.
For a moment Bakura stood there as if he was stuck by lighting and starred at her with wide, terrified eyes, while behind her Yami acted as if he was gagging, while at the same time he grinned and chuckled at Bakura and his predicament.
He was just happy that for once he wasn't the one who got nearly strangled to dead by her, and it was very hard for him not to show his glee.
Anzu ignored the strange behavior of the two Yamis, twisted one of the white strands of hair between her fingers, and batted her eyelashes rapidly at him. She gave him a good view in her (very) low neckline, before she whispered 'seductively':
"I have to ask you something, my darling thief. Can I play the Juliet, instead of you? Please? Pretty please? Trust me, it will be worth you while, my beloved tomb robber, I'm pretty sure we can find an agreement somehow…?"
But Bakura just shook his head at her: "Sorry, no way…" he told her curtly, while in his mind he saw Ryous big, brown eyes looking pleadingly at him.
And the treat to have him banned at the couch forever and ever…
And Anzu still smiled suggestively up at him, blind for his distant stare, and batted her eyes at him, while she got even closer to him and played with his hair again: "And if I say please, please very nicely?" and she pressed against him
As Bakura didn't react, she was sure she had him under her spell, and that he would give in to her. That she would get the part in the play and the Yami himself in one go. So she smiled/ grinned up at him, vainly hoping that Yami, too, would fall for her now, since Bakura was so dazzled from her beauty that he was unable to even say a single word.
She didn't even notice that Bakura came suddenly back from his thoughts about his little Hikari, just as little as she noticed Yamis smirk.
(Blind and stupid as always…)
Bakura looked surprised down as he felt her move, playing with his hair.
Suddenly Bakura, too, began to smirk as he turned around to Yami:
"Now, don't scare me like that, you bastard, I nearly fell for it! The next time you 'mind-crush' someone, at last make sure that a nuthouse collects that someone afterwards! We don't need even more psychos running around here, Marik and Malik are by far worse enough!"
Relived at his realizing he was chuckling until Yami brutally squashed all his hopes that this was just a prank from the other Yami: "Sorry, Bakura, but sadly I didn't do anything to her. Yet. I fear that she really means this shit!"
Quickly the with-haired thief shook the clinging pest from his neck and took a few steeps back for his own safety, before she could reach for him again.
Pouting she looked up at Yami, at last he has to help her, right: "But then you will have to kiss him! Are you sure that you want that? If I play Juliet, you could kiss me…"
'But surely they would prefer me over anything and anyone else. Bakura will give in, Yami will ask him to, and who would ever say no to anything my Yami-chan wants…' thought Anzu with glittering eyes, before Yamis answer squashed her hopes also:
"I rather kiss him then you!"
Bakura laid a friendly arm around Yamis shoulder as Anzu gaped at his answer like an ugly fish
But sadly it hadn't the desired effect as Anzu suddenly beamed at them.
'It sure would look great, those two together…' and she even giggled madly at that thought.
"You know what? I think I would like to see that! You two are sooo sweet; I think I will keep you both! You don't need to proof to me how great and brave you are, I already know that!"
"And you are absolute sure that you haven't Mind-crushed her?" asked Bakura, ignoring her as she said more about how happy the three of them will be in the future, and how much they loved her, and how everyone will be friends...
Yami shock his head again.
"Not even a tiny little bit? Maybe it was an accident?"
"Not that I can remember, I'm sure I would know!"
"You can tell me, Yami! I swear I wouldn't tell it Yugi, or someone else for that matter!"
"But I didn't do anything to her. At last, not outside of my dreams…"
"And you really do what you dream of me!" she chirped, thinking that he was talking about 'that'
Anzu clapped happily her hands and tried to give each of them a kiss on his cheek, but luckily they where able to avoid her, and she skipped happy and content in the sunset.
(So to speak)
And it was a lot healthier for her to do, since Yami as well as Bakura had a certain golden eye on their forehead, which normally promised a long, unpleasant journey to the shadow realm.
Without a come-back-ticket of course.
Both shuddered from disgust.
"There she goes, and was never seen again…"
"Ha! I wish!" growled Yami, and Bakura shuddered again, a little green around his nose:
"Wääähhh, germs! They will never go away! I will have to shower at last 5 times to ever feel somewhat clean again!"
"When she contaminated me, and I ever start talking the same shit as she does, do me a favor and kill me!"
"I'm just glad we have such calm and rational Hikaris. If she ever tries something like this with Ryou, comes anywhere near to him, and tries to smother him with kisses, I would snap her neck at an instant.
Not that I am worried, or something like that. I just don't like the thought that she would stalk my fluffy Hikari and bother with her nasty presence!" distastefully Bakura rubbed again over his cheek, and murder flashed in his narrowed eyes.
"I can understand you pretty well. I guess the best we can do is simply ignoring her. Maybe she will get lost on her own?! Because talking is useless anyway, what she doesn't like, she will ignore! Such as the fact that I'm together with Yugi or that I will never give her anything beside a very painful dead!"
Both of them shuddered again before they get over to more important things.
"So, what did you say there? You want to make out with me? Does Yugi know about this? Or better yet, will he maybe even join in the fun? You know, I didn't have anything against it, I'm just curious…" asked Bakura with a sly grin at the smaller one, who bared his fangs at him:
"Don't look so smug, I'm doing this just for Yugi, because he had asked me really nicely! And because maybe I'm just a little bit guilty, too, that he has to do all of that now. But you, on the other hand seems to be very eager to wear that dress…"
"Keep on dreaming! I'm doing this shit all for Ryou, because he will be very happy! Even if I have to make a fool out of myself."
"You can be nice?"
"For Ryou always!"
Both of the mentioned Hikaris where in the meantime searching for their Yamis, to eat something with them or keep them from killing someone, as the case may be.
Because Yami and Bakura where together, and that couldn't be something good.
The thief was sleeping the whole forenoon, and now he was up and ready for every for mischief.
And Yami never backed away from a challenge anyway.
Ryou stomped around since morning in an unusual bad mood, while Yugi beside him had a hard time not to burst out in laughter.
He meets the former white-haired teen just a few moments ago, since they weren't together in the same class. Ryou had yet again tried and failed to get the ugly pink stuff out of his hair.
And now his hair was wet and baby pink…
The murderous glint in his eyes was normally only seen on Bakura.
"When I get my hands on her, she will die. I will murder her that brutally, Bakura will look like a fucking fluffy bunny!" he growled, just as they suddenly watched a giggling Anzu skipping around before them.
And that could only mean one thing: Yami was somewhere around.
With wide eyes, they witnessed Anzu jumping at Bakuras neck, and how she was shamelessly flirting with him. She didn't even notice the dangerous stare the Hikaris shoot at her, nor did she see the murderous look in their darker sides' eyes.
"First Yami, and now Bakura, too?! What is her plan, to open a harem, or what?"
At that, their thoughts drifted away for a 'short moment', as they closed their eyes to picture that daydream a little more…
(Both Yugi and Ryous view:)
They saw a big, friendly room on a beautiful, warm day before their inner eye.
The soft carpet over the cold stone floor is sand colored and expensive, the walls have a warm beige color with a silky-matt shimmer, the same shimmer that was also on the light blue ceiling.
The furniture is made of a light brown wood and very carefully designed.
Fine pattern are artistically carved in it, and a beautiful bowl of thin glass sat on the round table by the window. A big, cream-colored, frail looking water lily was swimming together with a few little candles in the water.
(a/n: Yes, I know, dark wood looks more expensive, but I like the lighter sort more, because it looks friendlier, not so heavy or treating… At last, I feel that way…)
In the middle of the room is a big round canopy bed, golden curtains are moving lightly in a soft breeze, coming through the curved, glassless windows. The wind smells like the flowers growing under the window, fighting bravely against the glaring sun of the afternoon.
And on that big bed, in a sea of colorful pillows lounged temptation in a human form.
He wears a breeze of nothing, just nearly transparent, loose pants, which where getting darker and shadowy the more upwards the watching, admiring eyes were wandering.
Beside that, he only wore only a very seductive smile on soft lips, a wordless welcome for him, coaxing him to come nearer with just a single look.
The shining sun let those wonderful eyes glittering like rare gems and his hair was shimmering like luxurious silk, begging to be touched and stroked tenderly.
"Come on, don't be so shy, sweet Hikari-mine." whispered the deep, familiar voice as strong arms dragged him down on the soft bed.
"I don't bite… much…"
The smaller one pressed his cheek against the broad, strong chest, felt the smooth, warm skin under his fingers and heard the powerful beat of his heart echoing in his ear.
For a moment, the couple just enjoyed the gentle embrace, until he felt tender hands lifting his head up, and they got lost in the expressive eyes of the other.
Seductive words, whispered in a velvety voice, and they closed the gap between their mouths.
Warm lips caught his own in a tender, slow kiss and his eyes closed at their own, as the loving hands of his darker half stroked along his back.
As the kiss grew more passionate, one of this hands came to rest on his ass, while the other wandered to his front, to fondle and caress this sensitive part of his, enjoying the loud response he got…
"Wahhh, bad thoughts, bad…." Yugis startled squeak brought Ryou, too, back from his daydreams, as the student, who bumped accidentally into Yugi quickly hurried away from the weird Hikaris.
None of them had to say it out loud, that they both where thinking something along the same line, they could clearly see it in the others bright-red face.
Quickly the not so innocent Hikaris turned back around to watch Yami and Bakura, trying the best to ignore the growing 'little' problem in their pants.
'Why the hell must school be so long today' though Yugi sorrowful, 'I would love to grab Yami and…'
Yugi licked appreciative over his lips as they watched their Yamis more from around their little corner.
(Meanwhile back with Yami and Bakura)
"For Ryou I even try to do that boring play decently, even if I still think it is a stupid idea and it would be a lot easier when we just sent everything and everyone in the Shadow Realm!!" and Bakura glared back at the dress which he dragged over the floor the whole time.
He was obviously very unhappy with his choose of clothes.
Yami patted his shoulder soothingly:
"I know what you mean. You are not the only one who has to make a fool of himself."
They sighed at the same time heavily…
Yugi and Ryou couldn't help but smile, and you could nearly see the chibi-hearts flying around them.
"Isn't that totally sweeeeet?"
"Yes, and just for us…"
"I have an idea!" Yugi snatched Ryous hand and dragged him away quickly.
"When they are ready to work that hard for us, just to make us happy, we should help them. We do them the favor and get rid of Anzu for them. We keep her away from them! What do you think? Partner (in crime)?" and he held his hand out, and Ryou accepted it.
"Partner!" he agreed with a nod.
"Perfect! Project: Anzu massacre can begin!"
Excited and cheerfully the Hikaris ran away to find a hidden corner to plot their dark crime…
(Insert creepy laughing and disturbing music here)
Meanwhile (again) with they Yamis, who of course didn't know about the new pact of their two 'peaceful and innocent' lights.
Yami by now had shook off Bakuras arm from his shoulder and now both of them starred with crossed arms at each other:
"And?"
"And what?" snapped Bakura back.
"And why else!? Don't tell me you are just doing this shit because you are all of a sudden nice, because I don't believe that. I know you, tomb robber, longer then I like to admit!"
"Fine, well, you win, I give in: And because I don't want to sleep on the couch." admitted the white-haired thief reluctantly.
"Oh, you too?"
"Yes, who would think that Hikaris would use such nasty treats…"
"Yeah, and did you know: torture is forbidden by law these times!"
"Really?" Bakura looked bewildered at the shorter pharaoh.
That was really new for him.
But then again, since when was he following any rules or restrains…
After all, it is just illegal if you get caught…
"A whole week sleeping alone, and above all- not even touching them, no kissing, no fondling, not getting any… That is really horrible, sneaky and cruel."
"Yes, and it don't even helps when you sent your damn couch to the shadow realm! At last not with Ryou. Just imagine that, he didn't even care as I did!!!
He had made me sleep all alone on the cold floor, and even doubled the time. And just because I flooded the cellar knee-deep with water!"
'How the hell should I know that that pipe was needed? It hit me on the head as I went down there, so I sent it to the shadows! What else was I supposed to do with that stupid shit when it gets in my way?!'
Both of them starred sadly at their costumes: "Hikaris can be really cruel…"
Bakura laid again his arm around the shoulder of his fellow-sufferer.
"You know what they say: Every thing in the nature has it's naturally fiend, and the fiend of each Yami is the couch."
The fellow-sufferer strolled away and were dragging their costumes miserably behind them.
"But on the other side, we save them from detention, and they will be very grateful, when we successfully pull this off!"
But they generously disregarded the fact that they are the reason for the poor Hikaris even to be in detention…
(Like every other fact who doesn't fit in their plans. Just like Anzu did all the time.)
"Very grateful indeed. And surly we will get a great reward for doing this!"
"So that's the real reason, tomb robber!" triumphed Yami as he found out the true…
"Well, of course! And for my reward, all I need is: a solid bed, some soft, silk ribbons or Handcuffs, no clothes and plenty of time and a lot of sweet whipped cream."
"Oh yeah, I have some ideas to that, too…" and a dirty grin now also spread on Yamis face as well, as Bakura went on with his musings about the reward they will get after the school festival.
"And of course we can't forget about the most important thing in the whole mix: A willing Hikari. Best would be the own one, of course, but every other Hikari will do just fine, too.
And sometimes that last ingredient is the hardest to get a hold on."
".. But it will pay off all the more…" cut Yami in and thought a little, "but I prefer chocolate over whipped cream. Yugi barely ever let me have some, because it makes me agitated and restless. At last, that's what he says! My ass, that's just not fair!" pouted Yami "Beside that, I like that idea of yours. But if you come anywhere near my Aibou with your filthy hands I will personally remove them!"
Both Yamis nodded still thinking all about that great reward they surely would get after that school festival.
With new spirits, a dirty grin and a lot of not so innocent thoughts in their mind they retired to spent the rest of that break together with the others.
Without any more incidents, the last hour came around, and with it the hope to finally begin today with the rehearsal and get at last a little work done.
Bakura and Yami where even talking with each other like civilized peoples, not like wild monkeys or hungry beasts in the zoo, as they took turns to read their text.
Even when they both sounded like they where about to fall asleep at any moment. (2)
Ryou and Yugi where sitting all by themselves in a corner, but no one was able to find out what exactly they where doing there. Every time one of the other teens got anywhere near to them, they were suddenly quiet.
That 'nuisance' was then watched by two pairs of big, innocent eyes until he lost his guts and left them alone without getting any answers what they where whispering all by themselves.
Malik and Marik where nowhere to see, nobody really missed Anzu and Joey and Kaiba where once again fighting.
Nothing special…
Until…
A really loud bang was heard, followed by a piercing clash, and everyone startled at the sudden noise and they shared one thought:
Marik!
What've he and his equally insane Hikari done yet again!?
Then a startled screeching, insane laughter and a horrible stomping followed.
Not long and Malik and Marik stormed in the class and yelled:
"Hide us, quickly, they are after us, you have to hide us!"
"No matter were, but hide us!"
And with that they ran unbraked in a closet, whose doors where held open for them by Yugi. A painful smack told everyone, that they where braked by the backside wall, and the couple giggled cheerfully as the doors where closed behind them.
But at the same time, someone wrenched the classroom door open, and reveled the reason for all the stomping as well as the fear of the two psychos:
A pack of girls, all angry and aimed with brooms, bats, sticks and other weapons, appeared.
(Think about Ranma ½, don't own them either!)
"Where are those devils, we sent them back in the hell they crawled out!"
"What did they do now?" asked Yami sighing, while Yugi leaned against the closet and hissed silently: "Be quiet, or they will hear you!" as some murmuring was heard from the inside.
"They somehow managed it to completely blow up the girls-restroom, and now we want to 'thank' them for the mess they made!"
Malik could cover his insaner half's mouth before he could say something, and the last muffled sounds he made where hushed with a hot kiss.
"Well, if you see them, make sure to send them our way! We have a bone to pick with those psychos!"
And with that the whole pack left to search somewhere else for their pray.
Curious Yami and his little light opened the closet, since it was getting suspicious silent in there.
Yami coughed a little, but the only response was that Malik was pressed even firmer against the taller ones body and they kissed more passionate.
Yami coughed again, but again he was ignored.
None of the Egypt's let the fact that they had audience bother them in any way, they just carried on with what they where doing. They tore on each other's shirts and stroked over exposed skin.
Yami tried again to gain their attention and coughed even louder then before, after all he was the pharaoh and wasn't to be ignored that easily!
And really, finally they parted, and Marik gave Yami an evil glare: "Eat cough-medicine or something, when you want to watch us and learn something, or get lost! You bother us with your damn rattle!"
"Well, then just wait how much two dozen girls are going to bother you, when they come back!" riled the Puzzlespirit back
"And why did you two blow up the girl-restroom?" asked Yugi curios, partly to stop the upcoming fight (or better the duel), and partly, because he wanted to know.
"But we didn't!" defended Marik them with a proud grin, which totally betrayed his words. And that's what Yami told them.
"Yeah, sure who on earth would ever believes that!"
"No, I swear, the toilet didn't blow up!" Malik also told them.
Yami and Yugi looked at them both with crossed arms until they couldn't stand it and they, laughing like mad, came out with the true:
"The loo just bursted!"
"The toilet bowl simply shattered with all the pips around it!"
"Pang! Like a balloon."
"And Zisch and water was everywhere!"
"Like a fountain!"
"A homemade flood!"
They had to lean against each other to not fall down from all their laughing and giggling, since they knew what they where going to say next:
"And Anzu was sitting on that thing! And now she sticks with her head in the ceiling!"
"I doubt that they will be able to use that bathroom in the next time…"
"Well, when Anzu was sitting on it, it was a really good reason to blow it up."
"How the hell did you even do this?" asked Yami, ignoring his Hikaris glee for now. Anzu could stick there for the rest of her live, for all he cared.
"We snuck a tiny little bit of dry ice from the chemistry lap …" admitted Marik, scratching the back of his head, while Malik starred at the floor as he went on with their confession:
"And it somehow fell in one of the toilets…"
"Just at the same time as Anzu stormed in…"
Now they really couldn't stop their grin anymore, as the guilty façade fell:
"Apparently something was wrong with her food, and she had some problems with her stomach…"
"And accidentally, only the prepared toilet was free…"
Malik and Marik giggled and chuckled like mad, nearly rolling on the floor, the others shaking form no longer enough for support.
"And then….."
"Bummmmm!!!!!"
For a moment, Joey asked himself if he was the only one who was able to see the gleeful gleam in Ryou and Yugis wide eyes.
But before he could dwell any longer on that thought, the strange expression was gone, and they both looked as innocent and harmless as ever…
TBC:
Okay, this is the end of this chapter, after that, no one was able to concentrate on their text, and so they went home and where happy and contend. Except for Anzu, she stuck in the ceiling for a very long time….
(2) Please don't ask me how they could do that, I'm not sure myself. Maybe the Hikaris dictated them, or they translated the little yellow book (of doom), or the Yamis where forced to copy their text from the movie…
I have to admit, I'm not at all happy with the beginning of this chapter, it gave me a bit of a struggle. And I changed a part of it again and again, before I completely erased it. But don't worry; I decided to put that part in the next chapter, since it will fit better there. Oh, don't worry, I didn't forget about Joey and Kaiba, but they refused to work with me this time…
