This is a play on the Christmas song "The Twelve Days of Christmas".
Some of the chapters might not be as long as in my other stories.
This is a pure humor story, so no kind of fighting or angst will be in it.
Summary: Christmas is twelve days away, and everyone is starting to get ready for Christmas. Yugi recieves a mysterious package, and continues to recieve them for the next twelve days of Christmas. Who is sending these Christmas packages, and will Yugi accept the real meaning behind the gifts?
/Blahblahblah/ Yugi to Yami
//Blahblahblah// Yami to Yugi
Also, I would like to say that the characters of Leo, Yuesei, Kyla, and Sayora have nothing to do with Princess Neferteri AKA Krysta's characters. They are my own creation.
Chapter 1- On the First Day of Christmas
December 14
"Will you two get a room?!" seventeen year old Yami shouted.
"Grandpa, I think that you should have your head examined for putting that mistletoe up." fifteen year old Yugi said.
Grandpa laughed heartily. "It's a tradition in this house." Grandpa said.
"Yeah, but you should know better with those two." Yami said.
Atemu and Heba, who had been kissing happily under the mistletoe, turned to face them.
"I love the tradition." Atemu started.
"You would." Yami muttered.
After the Battle City Duel, Ishizu had concocted a spell that gave Yami his own body, but a side effect of the spell brought Yami's older brother, Atemu, from ancient Egypt to the present with his own body. Both lived in the Moto household with Yugi and Grandpa.
A few months later, Yugi's twin brother Heba, returned to live in Domino because he wanted to be closer to his brother and grandfather.
Heba and Atemu had gotten together two months ago."There is nothing wring with the mistletoe. We were merely following the tradition and kissing since we were both under the mistletoe." Heba said.
"Heba, that was not kissing. That was making out!" Yugi exclaimed.
Grandpa laughed jovially. "There is no harm. I find it cute." Grandpa said.
Heba blushed lightly at the comment.
"I wish we had had something like that back in ancient Egypt." Atemu said thoughtfully.
"No you don't!" Yami exclaimed.
It was a well-known fact that Heba had lived in ancient Egypt and was married to Atemu.
"You two were bad enough without something like that." Yami said.
"What do you mean?" Yugi asked.
"They didn't care where they were in the palace. If they felt the need to make out, they did." Leo said as he came into the room with Yuesei.
Atemu shrugged. "I was the Pharaoh so I could do what I wanted, and no one could do anything about it." Atemu said.
"Yeah, but it was irritating. The one thing that I am thankful for is that they only had sex in their bedroom." Yami said.
"That was because of Heba." Atemu said.
Heba looked at Atemu. "I was willing to make out with you outside the bedroom, but that was one thing that you were not going to talk me into." Heba said.
"Seto! Joey!" Yami shouted.
The group looked to see Seto and Joey making out under the mistletoe with a blushing Mokuba and Sayora not far behind them.
"What?" Seto asked after breaking away from a dazed Joey.
"One sexed crazed couple in the house is enough!" Yami exclaimed.
"We are not sex crazed." Atemu said.
"Yeah. That's why you have to use a silencing spell on your bedroom several times a day, or when you're too horny to remember, I have to put it up." Yami growled.
Yugi shook his head. "Heba, let's get some hot chocolate for everyone." Yugi said.
"Sure thing." Heba said.
"I'd prefer coffee, actually." Grandpa said.
"So would I." Leo said.
"Me, too." Seto agreed.
"As would I." Yuesei said.
"Sure thing. Four coffees, and seven hot chocolates." Yugi said as he and Heba disappeared into the kitchen.
Yugi started making the coffee while Heba made the hot chocolate.
"Yugi, have you thought about what I said?' Heba asked.
"Yes, and no." Yugi said.
"Oh, come on, Yugi. You know that you like Yami, so just tell him." Heba hissed.
"Heba, I can't do that." Yugi said.
"There's not better time to tell him. Christmas is the season of giving. What better thing to give Yami than your heart?" Heba asked.
"Heba, I am not telling Yami, now get off of my back." Yugi said.
Heba sighed. "Oh, all right." Heba finally agreed.
The two set the cups of coffee and hot chocolate with marshmallows on trays and carried them into the living room.
Everyone took their beverage of choice.
A moment later, Kyla appeared with Marik, Malik, Ryou, Bakura, Tea, and Tristan behind her.
"Hi, guys. Can a few more of us fit in here?" Kyla asked.
"Might as well." Atemu said.
"Who wants coffee and who wants hot chocolate?" Yugi asked.
"Hot chocolate." Malik, Ryou, Tea, Tristan, and Kyla said.
"Coffee." Bakura and Marik said.
Yugi and Heba went into the kitchen again and returned with more drinks.
"I can't believe that Chrisman is only twelve days away." Tea said excitedly.
"Yeah. I can't wait." Tristan agreed.
"By the way, where are we having the Christmas party at?" Malik asked.
"My mansion, where else. Who else really has the space?" Seto asked.
"He makes a point." Atemu agreed.
"Yeah, and Seto has to go all out this year." Mokuba said.
"Why?" Sayora asked.
"Oh, let's just say that I may have mentioned something about him sleeping on the couch for a few months." Joey said.
The grouped laughed, knowing that it really meant no sex for that long.
"That, and Mokuba said that he'd crash the KaibaCorp system." Seto said.
"You wouldn't, Mokuba?" Yugi said.
"Oh, yes I would." Mokuba said.
The entire grouped laughed.
"I never thought that the Priest could be blackmailed!" Bakura exclaimed, laughing hysterically.
Seto growled. "Shut up!" Seto said.
Bakura noticed the mistletoe and started to drag Ryou toward only Yami stood in the way.
"Tomb Robber, if you take one more step toward that mistletoe and you'll be in the hospital in traction." Yami said.
"Why?" Ryou asked.
"I have had it with couples making out under that plant!" Yami exclaimed.
Grandpa leaned toward Yugi and said, "Yugi, maybe you should take Yami out of the house for awhile."
Yugi nodded and stood up. "Come on, Yami. I need you to come with me and help me with something." Yugi said.
"Okay." Yami agreed, and the two left the house after getting their coats and shoes.
"Good thinking, Grandpa. I don't think that Yami would have lasted another second." Leo said, noticing that Bakura was already making out with Ryou, and Marik was already making out with Malik.
"Yeah. Yami would have snapped with that one." Atemu said.
"I believe that I will go on and meet my old friend for lunch. Leo, I'd like my house to still be standing when I get back." Grandpa said.
"It will be, Grandpa. I'll make sure that no magic is used in this house." Leo promised.
"Good. I am holding you personally responsible for what happens here." Grandpa said.
"I understand. It'll be fine." Leo promised.
Grandpa got his coat and left.

Yugi and Yami went to the mall to do some Christmas shopping.
"Thanks for getting me out if there, Yugi. I was close to sending someone to the Shadow realm." Yami said.
"I know. It does get annoying seeing them making out all the time. Tea and Tristan are the only ones with a normal relationship other than Leo and Yuesei. At least they do everything in the privacy of their bedroom." Yugi said.
"Sometimes, it's terrible being the only ones in the group that don't have someone." Yami said with a sigh.
"Well, Kyla isn't technically with anyone." Yugi said.
"Yeah. I know that she isn't real serious with Duke, but she's still got someone. Even Mokuba and Sayora are dating." Yugi said.
Yami glanced over at Yugi. 'I just wish that I could tell you that I love you. I'd like to stop being single, but only of you're the one that I can be with.' Yami thought.
Yami hadn't told Yugi yet, and Leo. Seto, and Atemu had agreed not to tell Yugi that he also lived in ancient Egypt and was married to Yami. He didn't want that to affect what Yugi felt.
After a few hours, they had almost all of their shopping done.
"Okay. All that's left is Atemu and Heba." Yugi said.
Yugi and Yami had agreed to just pool their money together and buy gifts for everyone together so that they could spend a little more.
"How about two sets of handcuffs?" Yami muttered.
"Yami, be serious." Yugi scolded.
"Okay. Sorry." Yami replied.
"What do you think would be good?" Yugi asked.
Yami suddenly had an idea. "I know exactly what we can get Atemu." Atemu said.
"It is sensible, right?" Yugi asked.
Yami nodded. "Yeah, and it would be a gift for Heba, too. Come on." Yami said.
Yugi followed Yami to another store.
* * * * * *
Yugi and Yami found the house deserted after they got home.
"Perfect. We can get all this wrapped." Yugi said.
30 Minutes later.
"Yugi! Help!" Yami whined.
Yugi laughed as he noticed that Yami had somehow managed to get himself wrapped in Christmas and paper and ribbon.
"This isn't funny, aibou." Yami said, trying to look angry but failing miserably.
"Yes, it is, Yami." Yugi said, helping get Yami free. "Maybe you should get everything in the boxes, and I'll wrap the gifts." Yugi said.
"Okay, aibou." Yami agreed.
They had gotten everyone the following gifts:
Tea- a new dancing outfit
Tristan- a game for his Wii
Joey- Red Eyes Black Dragon figurine
Seto- Blue Eyes White Dragon figurine
Mokuba- a Kuriboh brothers plushy set
Sayora- a heart pendent
Kyla- a dog pendent
Duke- trick playing cards
Leo- collectible twin katanas
Yuesei- a rose necklace
Marik- a shirt that says 'He's Mine!'
Malik- a shirt that says 'I'm His!'
Ryou- an antique tea set
Bakura- a dagger set
Ishizu- a bracelet with Egyptian charms
Grandpa- an album full of pictures of the whole gang
Atemu and Heba's gift would have to be picked up later.
"Okay. we've got everything wrapped except Grandpa's." Yugi said.
"Let's get to it." Yami said.
They already had all the photos they needed. They organized them according date and filled up the two books.
After they wrapped it up, they took all the presents downstairs and put them with the rest that were already around the tree.
"Well, I guess we got everyone." Yugi said.
"Except each other." Yami said.
"Yami, you-" Yugi started.
"Yugi," Yami said, interrupting him, "I know that you're going to say don't worry about getting you anything, but I am so deal with it."
"Fine, but I'm still getting you something." Yugi said.
Yami nodded. "I know." Yami replied.
The doorbell rang.
Yugi and Yami both stood up and went to the door to find Ishizu outside holding a box.
"Hello, Ishizu. Come in." Yugi said.
"Thank you, Yugi." Ishizu said, walking in.
Yugi and Yami led her into the living room.
"Is there something we can do for you?" Yami asked.
"Yes. Do you know where my brother is?" Ishizu asked.
"No. We went out Christmas shopping for the last few hours. The house was empty when we got back." Yugi said.
"I see." Ishizu said.
"What's in the box?" Yugi asked.
"I don't know. It was on your front step." Ishizu explained.
"Oh. Thank you." Yugi said, taking the box from Ishizu.
Yugi looked at the name and said, "It's for me."
"Hmm. You might as well open it." Yami said.
A moment later, everyone except for Grandpa came trampling into the house.
"Found him." Yami said.
"Sister, what are you doing here?" Malik asked.
"Looking for you. Your cell phone was off." Ishizu said.
"Oh. Sorry about that." Malik said.
"Hey, Yug. What's with the box?" Joey asked.
"I don't know. It was on the front step." Yugi said.
"Well, open it." tea said.
Yugi nodded and opened the box to find a small bag inside it. Yugi took out the bag ad opened it to find a cartouche on a necklace.
"What's that?" Duke asked.
"It's a cartouche. We used them in ancient Egypt. The Royal family would wear one with their name on it." Atemu explained.
Yugi noticed something. "My name is on this. I think it's in ancient Egyptian." Yugi said.
"It is." Yami said.
"I wonder who would send you that." Malik said.
"I don't know." Yugi said.
Heba glanced in the box and said, "Hey, Yugi. There's a piece of paper in this box." Heba took the paper out and handed it to Yugi.
Yugi unfolded the paper and read it.
It read:
This is Just a small token of my love for you.
You will receive something for the next twelve
Days.
Love,
Your Eternal Lover
At the bottom of the paper read:
On the first day of Christmas I gave my true love, a cartouche with his name on it.
Yugi had read it aloud, startling everyone.
"Wow! Sounds like you have a secret admirer, Yugi." Ryou said.
"But who?" Yugi asked.
"Who knows, but it sounds like you'll more gifts." Kyla said.
"What do you mean?" Yugi asked.
"The reference to the Christmas carol 'The Twelve Day of Christmas', Yugi." Ishizu explained.
"Wonder who it is." Heba murmured.
"Well, we may find out later." Atemu said.
Yugi glanced back down. 'This is odd.' Yugi thought.
//It'll be fine, Yugi.// Yami told him though the link.
/But what if it's a stalker?/ Yugi said.
//You're with someone most of the time, and we won't let anything happen. Besides, someone likes you a lot to dot hat.// Yami said.
/I guess so/' Yugi agreed.
"Let's eat!" Joey exclaimed.
Everyone groaned, but Kyla and Sayora went into the living room to fix dinner.
There's the first chapter.
The second day of Christmas will be next. Any suggestions on what Yugi will get the next eleven days will be appreciated.
R&R.
