Wolf and Leo: We're back with a new story! This one is the continuation of The Insanity Continues! We own nothing but the plot and ourselves, so enjoy!
Three years had now passed since that fateful summer in Ottawa. Meg and Katie were now twenty-two years old and well on their way to completing their degree. Their faithful band of crazies had added a new member almost two years ago now; Jeanne, formerly known as the Iron Maiden.
Yes, things had changed. Yoh and Hao had just graduated high school, they were 19 years old. Yoh was going into Ancient History at the university and Hao had found a passion for veterinary. The two of them were now about as tall as Seto, much to their girlfriends' annoyance.
Hao and Yoh took their responsibilities as Shaman Kings seriously. They were currently working on restoring the reefs and oceans to their former glory. They kept the process slow, they didn't want to draw too much attention. As it was, the news was calling this slow revitalization a miracle.
On the political side, Seto was working to push green technology and practices in corporation to aid the twins' efforts. He had a good spot in that world, so most were listening to what he had to say.
"They'll never learn if we just give these things to them outright." Hao always said. That was the reasoning behind not just flicking their fingers and creating a Utopia. Somehow, someday, someone would just pull it apart. They had to show the world how to live and why it was good. It would take time, but they were setting it in motion.
"Bo…Bo!" Katie yelled at the energetic black German shepherd. Mika had passed away last year and they had gotten the rambunctious puppy not long after. He was now six months old, and huge, hence the name Behemoth.
"Oof!" Bo ran straight into Hao. "This dog needs to come with brakes." Bo jumped up and licked his face before running off to challenge Jaz-Jaz to a wrestling match. Hao chuckled deeply and turned to Katie, kissing her lightly.
"Aww, would you quit with the mushy stuff." Bakura complained, his own lover, Ryou, in his lap. Hao raised an eyebrow pointedly. Bakura sniffed and busied himself teasing Ryou.
"So what are we doing tonight?" Jeanne asked from the couch. She had done her best to distance herself from her former 'holy girl' image. She had on a black t-shirt with a silver skull and crossbow on it, black, ripped jeans and a pair of black, star-covered converse. She had a tiny skull in her one ear, and a moon in the other. When she stretched herself out a wink of silver on her torso revealed the bellybutton piercing she had gotten not five months ago.
"Well squirt," Hao started. "We are going to watch movies, eat popcorn and drink pop until we explode. How does that sound?"
"Like a plan." Jeanne answered. "And quit calling me squirt!" Hao had basically become like a big brother to Jeanne. All the group considered her the little sister and could be fiercely protective of her, despite the fact that she could take care of herself.
The entire group consisted of couples. The members of the group were very serious in their relationships and so they lasted.
Yoh pulled Meg into his lap with a contented sigh. The rest of the group sat down with their respective lovers and waited for the movie to start. This was a Friday night ritual that had been honored since that first summer.
"Alright, let's get started." Yami called. The others echoed him excitedly. The TV was turned on and they settled down to watch.
All the sudden a faint buzzing sound made itself heard in the room. Everyone looked around in confusion, trying to figure out where it was coming from. Then, a great bright blue light surrounded all of them, blinding them momentarily.
With it came the sensation of falling and rushing towards something unseen. After what seemed like forever they landed with a faint thump. The light faded as they caught their breath and looked around they landed some sort of cavern from what they could see.
Everyone looked at each other. The lights nearly burst out laughing. Yugi and Yami landed next to each other, as did Seto and Joey, Mokuba on the other hand landed on Joey, his elbow landing in Joey's stomach knocking the breath out of him. Hao landed on his back with Katie in his arms. Ryou and Jeanne landed on their behinds on either side of Yami and Yugi, each with a dog in their lap, while Bakura landed on his stomach with Yoh sitting on his back with Meg in his arms.
"Get Off!!" Bakura shouted at the pair on his back
"Naah, I kinda like it here Bunny." Yoh said smiling patting the top of Bakura's head.
"I'M NOT A BUNNY! NOW GET THE F**K OFF ME!!!" Bakura shouted now wiggling under the pair trying to get out from underneath them.
"But Bunny, you're cushiony." Meg said moving out of Yoh's arms to sit on Bakura's upper back, facing Yoh who was sitting on his upper legs and behind, forcing Bakura back down to the rocky floor. Everyone was snickering at this, even Ryou found it amusing but also felt sorry for his boyfriend.
"All right you two get off, don't want Bunny getting any flatter than he is now." Said Yami chuckling, Meg pouted at him but they moved off Bakura all the same.
"What was that you baka pharaoh?!"
"Nothing" Yami said somewhat innocently, but with a big grin on his face.
"Where are we?" Mokuba asked over his giggling fit and stood up.
"I don't know." His older brother answered, eyes narrowed as he surveyed the room a little closer. Suddenly those blue eyes widened. "GET DOWN!" He roared, pulling Mokuba down on top of him as a blast of energy went over their heads. Yoh and Meg dove to the floor just barely missing the blast. It singed the ends of Meg's hair it was so close.
Instantly everyone was on their feet, all smiles gone and whatever power they possessed ready to go. Even Mokuba now had his own shadow beast; an electric blue striped, white tiger named Sol.
"Oh….gods." Hao moaned, his head going into his girlfriend's shoulder, who was standing next to him, when he saw who it was. "You guys tried to kill us before, it didn't work, remember?" He told the Patch, his head coming back up as they surrounded the group.
"Excuse me?" Silva sounded confused. "Who are you?" Hao blinked and stepped back.
"What?" Yoh asked, looking out at them all. All wore identical looks of confusion, even Goldva. "We're the Asakura twins. Hao and Yoh." He tried, it had been some time, they had grown, maybe they just didn't recognize them.
Not so, the frowns of confusion deepened.
"Hao and Yoh are younger than you two, and smaller." Goldva answered, eyes suspicious. Yoh and Hao always kept their furiochu hidden to not draw attention to themselves. They looked at each other, communicating in that silent, twin way that they had. They decided not to let them know, it would only cause more confusion.
"Smaller, does that mean we're in the past?" Joey murmured, absentmindedly rubbing his stomach.
"No, then the universe would have blown up." Jeanne answer
"How do you figure?" Bakura asked. Jeanne gave him an 'are-you-stupid' look.
"Paradox, Bunny. Doctor Who, remember?"
"IM NOT A BUNNY!" he growled
"I think she's right." Katie said. Bo and Jaz whined softly, sensing the tension in the room.
"But then, where are we?"
Wolf and Leo: dun dun dun!
