A/N: Yep, another old fic from like five or six years ago. This one is even older than my 'The Pranks' fic. Script-style story again. As with 'The Pranks', I might try to rewrite it in proper novel-text later on…for now, it's taking me hours just to type it all onto the computer with the edits in grammar and stuff.
Disclaimer:Characters do not belong to me. Only the plot and story in this fiction is.
The Mind-Switching Machine

--- Somewhere within the Kaiba Corp. ---
Kaiba: I've finally finished this mind-switching machine! I am so going to test this on Atemu…Fuwahahahahahaha!! *insane laughter*
.
--- Yuugi's room ---
Atemu: *receives chill down his spine* Why do I get this feeling that something bad's going to happen today?
--- Ten minutes later ---
*doorbell to the Game Shop rings*
Yuugi: Coming! *opens the door* …Kaiba? What are you doing here?
Kaiba: *innocent smile* Hi, I was passing by and…is Atemu here?
Atemu: *walks down the stairs* What?
Kaiba: *grabs Atemu in a flash and yanks him out the door*
Atemu: Wh-
Yuugi: Atemu!
Kaiba: *crams Atemu into his limo parked outside and yells at the driver* Drive!!
Atemu: Aaah?! o___o
Kaiba: Buwahahahahaha…!!! *laughter trails off as his limo disappears off into the distance*
Yuugi: *gapes*
.
--- Somewhere within the Kaiba Corp., again ---
Atemu: Kaiba!! What the Hell are you doing?!
Kaiba: *lopsided grin on face* You'll see soon enough. *straps Atemu onto the machine* Hmm…I'll need another person to be switched with him… *walks off muttering to himself*
Atemu: SOMEBODY HELP!!
.
--- Mariku's room ---
Ishizu: *walks in without knocking* Mariku? Kaiba wants to see your yami for some- What are you doing, Mariku? -_-
Mariku: Gah?! Sis, how many times did I tell you to knock before coming into my room! *whisks his comic books of indecency under his bed*
Ishizu: ………
Kaiba: *pokes his head into the room* Oh hi there. I hope it isn't too much of a trouble to borrow your yami?
Mariku: *blink* Huh? My yami? Uh, sure…*gestures vaguely to the closet*
Ishizu: …What is Yami Mariku doing inside the closet?
Mariku: *shrugs* No idea. Ask him.
Kaiba: *walks over to the closet and opens the door*
Yami Mariku: *bursts out, laughing manically* MuAHAHAHAHA!! I am back to destroy the wooooorld!! FWAHAHAHAHA!!
Mariku: Uh, no. Kaiba wants something from you.
Yami Mariku: AHAHAHA- *pause*…Huh?
Kaiba: Do you dislike Atemu?
Yami Mariku: Of course! I was so close to destroying the world the last time…*scowls*
Kaiba: I maaaay have a way of letting you get back at him, but…
Yami Mariku: But what?
Kaiba: *smirks* Come with me and I'll show you. I'll need someone else to add the fun…
.
--- Once more, somewhere within the Kaiba Corp. ---
Atemu: *having been ignored for more than two hours* HELLO?!! Is there anyone around here?!!
Kaiba: *enters the room* I'm here.
Yami Mariku: *walks in after Kaiba* And me.
Atemu: Kaiba, just what the Hell are you doing?! And what is Yami Mariku doing here?!
Kaiba: Oh shush. *straps Yami Mariku to the machine*
Yami Mariku: Hurry up, I want to destroy the world.
Kaiba: Just one more person left…*walks out*
Atemu: …What the Hell is going on here?!
Yami Mariku: Something fun, according to that mortal.
.
--- Ryou's kitchen ---
Ryou: NO! Yami, one spoon of salt is enough!!!
Yami Bakura: *dumps a whole can of salt into the pot of stewed beef* What?
Ryou: Oh never mind…-_- *throws the beef away*
*doorbell rings*
Yami Bakura: I'll get it. *opens the door* Yes? *eyebrow raise at Kaiba's expression*
Kaiba: *smirk* Is that an apron you're wearing, Bakura?
Yami Bakura: *scowls* Shut up. Go away. *slams the door in Kaiba's face*
Kaiba: Wait! You might be able to get Atemu's Sennen Puzzle in this!
Yami Bakura: *pause* …*opens the door again* …What?
Kaiba: I'm conducting an experiment. Atemu and Yami Mariku are already there.
Yami Bakura: Yami Mariku is there? Well now isn't that interesting. Fine. *turns around to Ryou* Oi! I'm going with this mortal for whatever he's talking about. Make my share extra rare, okay? *takes off the apron and walks out the door*
Ryou: …Now what was that all about? *shrugs and gets back to cooking*
.
--- And again, somewhere within the Kaiba Corp. ---
Yami Mariku: *muttering to himself* Oh this boring. I can't destroy the world, I'm strapped to this weird chunk of metal, I can't move, and I have a nutcase beside me who won't stop yelling! Where the heck is that stupid mortal?
Atemu: Kaiba, I am going to KILL you when I get out of this!!
Kaiba: *walks in at that moment* Thank you, Atemu. *rolls eyes*
Yami Bakura: *looks around, disgruntled* Hmph.
Kaiba: Let's see…*straps Yami Bakura onto the machine* Here we go~ And a 3… 2… 1… *presses a red button on the control panel*
*machine starts whirring to life*
*after a while*
Yami Bakura: Dizzy…*turns green*
Yami Mariku: Hey Kaiba…why are there five of you?
Atemu: Get me off this thing!! Dx
*five more minutes later*
*machine stops*
Yami Mariku: …I don't feel anything different, aside from being extremely dizzy and sick.
Kaiba: *looks excited* Say your name!
Yami Mariku: *raises eyebrow* I'm Yami Mariku.
Kaiba: YESSSS!! It worked!!
Yami Mariku: What? What worked?
Atemu: ARGH! Why am I staring at myself?!!
Yami Bakura: …What in the name of Zork……
Yami Mariku: Wow, I'm Atemu now. *pause* Muahahaha!! I can use this body to destroy the woooorld!!!
Atemu: Don't you do anything with my body!!
Yami Bakura: Oh well. At least I won't have to worry about the banes that keep flying into my eyes anymore…*sigh*
Atemu: Kaiba!! An explanation?!
Kaiba: *shrugs* This is my mind-switching machine. It switches the mind with another person. Mokuba has been nagging me for months because he's bored and he wants some entertainment, so…
Atemu: JUST BECAUSE OF MOKUBA?!!
Yami Mariku: *is laughing insanely as the machine releases the three* MUAHAHAHA!! I am going to rule the world!!
Yami Bakura: Pharaoh! Don't you dare do anything to my Ring!!
Atemu: Like I CARE about your stupid Ring at a time like this?! Kaiba, switch us back NOW!
Kaiba: *shrugs again* Sure, if you can catch the other two. *sits back into a chair and starts to sip some coffee brought to him by an MIB*
Atemu: You two!! Get back over here so we can switch back!!
Yami Mariku: *is still laughing insanely* MUAHAHAHAHA!!
Yami Bakura: Catch me if you can! *sticks out tongue*
Atemu: *decides to get Yami Mariku (his body) back first and sneaks up to him*
Yami Mariku: *whips around as Atemu came up* Oh no you don't! *whacks Atemu over the head with the Sennen Puzzle*
Atemu: Ow!!
Yami Bakura: Oi!! That's my body you're hitting!! *takes out the Sennen Rod and throws it, blade out, at Yami Mariku*
Yami Mariku: *ducks and hurls the Puzzle at Yami Bakura in return*
Yami Bakura: *tries to duck but gets hit anyway* Oww- Oh, well, it's your body anyway.
Atemu: Will you two cut it out?!
Yami Mariku: By the way, Atemu. *ducks the screwdriver thrown by Yami Bakura* I just wonder how you can walk around with these tight clothes of yours? How do you breath?
Atemu: *opens his mouth to speak but gets hit in the head by a hammer thrown by Yami Bakura* x___x *faints*
Yami Bakura: Oh shi- my body!! *watches the blood spout out from Atemu's head*
Yami Mariku: Ahahaha!! Serves you right for trying to hit me!
Mokuba: *appearing from a side door* Brother! *jumps onto Kaiba's lap and spilling coffee all over him* Thanks for such an entertainment!
Kaiba: *grins* Anything for you, dearest Mokuba.
Yami Bakura: What a waste of fresh blood! *runs to Atemu's side and starts gulping down the liquid*
Yami Mariku: Time to destroy the world! Starting with Japan!! *looks around* …Or here. *picks the hammer up from the ground and begins to trash the mind-switching machine*
Kaiba: Oh no you don't! *pushes a button labeled 'EJECT' on the control panel*
Yami Mariku: WHEEEE…*flies off into the sky*
Yami Bakura: Oh, there goes the Pharaoh's body. *spots the Puzzle lying on the ground* Oooh. *takes the Puzzle and puts it on himself* That's three Sennen Items I now have…Oh, I almost forgot the Rod and the two that're still on my body. *gets the three items from the still unconscious Atemu* Hmm…three more to go…I'll get Ishizu's first, then. *walks out the door*
*ten minutes later*
Atemu: *finally wakes up* Ugh…What the…Where'd they go?!!
Kaiba: *enjoying his tenth cup of coffee* I don't know where they're headed for, but I can give you this. *holds up a small machine the size of a walkie-talkie* I've put trackers on them and you can find them with this. *tosses the device to Atemu*
Atemu: *pushes banes away from his eyes and grabs the machine before dashing out the door without another word*
Mokuba: This is going to be fun, isn't it?
Kaiba: Of course, hehehe…*turns on a large screen on the wall, and views of the three yamis appears* Now let's sit back and watch the show…
A/N: I'll type and upload more later. Too tired at the moment to continue.
