Stardust:Aha, you thought we was done with you, bishi's?
Yami:pleeeeease....just leave me aloooone...
Jounouchi:ulf...Is this another story that makes me look like an idiot?
867-5309:Noope!I wrote it!
Jounouchi:yeah, hot damn!
Yami:geez...
867-5309:this is gonna be one weird fic, peoples!
Orion:oh-boy.
867-5309:*huggles Orion*Sorry, but no one likes non-humor stories with real characters in them.
Orion:Eheh...Tooo baaaad...
867-5309:*pats him on the head*Okay!LET'S DO THIS,PEOPLE!
~~~*~~~
Jou sat on his couch, watching television. "Man, nuthin's on..." he muttered.The news...late-night shows...infomertials..."God!Ya'd think something non-informative would be on tonight!" he yelled, throwing his arms up in exasperation.So, Jou sat and thought for awhile. What could he do?
"Hmmm...lessee...Honda is probably in bed, it's like...1:30 in the morning...Uhhh...Anzu and Yugi are probably in bed, too...Man, maybe *I* should go to bed? It is pretty late...NAH..." he was just going to look for some movie to watch, when someone buzzed the doorbell. "Geez..."he mumbled curse words as he opened the door.
Yami was standing there, with his hands in his pockets.
Jou cleared his throught "Ahaha...Hi there Yami...Strange seeing you here, at an hour and a half into Tuesday..." he said, scratching the back of his head. Yami held up his hand for silence. "I'm just here to pick up the book you borrowed from Yugi. He needs it back." Jou thought for a second."Book...book...Oh yea...!I'll go get it." he said, and dashed off twards his room.
Yami walked in to inspect Jou's apartment. It was kind of messy, and the only source of light was from the television. Yami sighed, wondering how these people could stare at a box for hours on end. Yugi liked to wach cartoons, he'd get up at 8:30 every Saturday just to watch them. Yami always said it would rot his mind, that Yugi should read a book.
Which was why he was here now. Yami had bought a book for Yugi a few days ago. It was called 'The Sword of Angels', and Yugi had found the fantasy novel very intriguing. When he explaing the plot so far to Jou, the latter asked if he could read it.
Jou came out of his room with the paperback novel in his hand, smiling. "This is a great book. No wonder Yugi wants it back!" Jou said. Yami half-smiled and took the book from Jou. "Shouldn't you be asleep, Jou?" he asked. Jou made a thoughtful look."...Nope.Why'd you expect me to be awake at 1:30 in the morning?" he asked back, walking with Yami to the door. "Becuase. People like you are very typical.You sleep during school, and stay up to watch dramatic 'reality television'." Yami smiled again and left.
Jou fidgeted."Maybe I should get to sleep...I am getting tired..." he yawned and walked back into his room.
~~~*~~~
Yugi was walking to school, reading the book Yami bought him. It was very interesting. He had thought it would be boring, but Yami had bought it for him, so Yugi had decided to try it out. And since Yami had gotten the book back from Jou last night, Yugi could finally figure out what happened next.
Anzu, at one point, started walking with him. She smiled.'How cute...Yugi's reading that book Yami got him. I'm glad Yugi's doing something other than playing games and watching TV.' she thought.She looked up to see Jou crossing the street to join them."Hey, guys!" he called, waving in mid-cross.Anzu waved at him, and Yugi looked up from his book."Hi, Jou!" he said. Jou smiled."I see you've got your nose in that book still." he said. "I'm gonna have to buy my own copy on the way home from school today!" Anzu giggled "You in a bookstore is like seeing a fish out of water." Jou glared at her.
Yugi luaghed and continued reading.
~~~*~~~
Jou sat in class, willing the hands on the clock to go faster.He wanted to get his hands on one of those books...!
The teacher was droning on about something, but Jou wasn't paying attention. He looked over at Yugi.
Yugi was paying attention. He was resting his chin on his hand, but paying attention.The Millenium Puzzle was swinging from his neck, brushing against his legs.
His hand slipped and he laid his head down on the desk, finally asleep.
Jou luaghed to himself.
"Is there something you'd like to share with the class, Katsuya?" Jou twitched "Uhh...no, sir.." The teacher walked over and prodded Yugi awake. Yugi sat up, and the class laughed."The two of you will serve detention after school for not paying attention during class."Yugi moaned.
Jou's jaw dropped.Now he'd have to wait even longer to get that book...!
~~~*~~~
Yugi yawned, reading his book in detention.
//Aibou...You should really pay more attention in school.//
/I know, I know./
//By the way, Yugi, you seem to be spending alot of your time reading that book I got you.//
Yugi smiled./Allright, Yami. You win./
//I knew it.See, sometimes reading beats television with a stick.//
Yugi turned the page./Jou seemed to like it too./
//I could tell.//
Yugi looked over at Jou, who was on the verge of bursting into a cussing mess.
/He said he wanted to buy one for himself./
//I heard him. It seems odd, doesn't it? Jou wanting to read a book...//
Yugi smiled again, and returned to his book.
Jou, on the other hand, was twitching with impatients. There was five minutes to the end of detention, and an hour till the bookstore closed.'gotta get outta here...' he thought.
~~~*~~~
Jou looked through the bookstore, trying to find the book he wanted. His stomach lurched when he didn't find it, so he walked up to the man at the counter."S'cuse me.." he said.The clerk looked up."How can I help you, young man?" he asked. He was in at least his early sixties, flecks of grey in his hair. Jou cleared his throat."Yeah..I'm looking for a specific book. It's called 'The Sword of Angels'." The clerk got up and started looking through the shelves, Jou following. "Well, that's quite a popular book. Just a few days ago, I had a boy about your age in here buying one for someone." Jou smiled. "Well...let me check in the back. Wait here." he said.
Jou sighed. He hoped with everything he could muster that they had a copy in the back. Otherwise, he'd have to keep borrowing Yugi's copy, and Yugi seemed to like it. Jou didn't want to keep borrowing it if Yugi was right in the middle of it.
The clerk came out with a hardcover book, blowing dust off it."Here we go.It's an older copy, but you look like you really want to read this book." Jou took the book, looking it over. He shrugged and handed the clerk his money, and headed for home.
~~~*~~~
Yugi was hunched over the novel, cuaght up in the plot. Yami was sitting on Yugi's bed.He smiled.Yugi had been putting alot of his spare time into reading that book, and Yami was glad his aibou wasn't waisting hours on end watching television.
Grandpa knocked on the door, opened it. "Lights out, Yugi." Yugi looked up and moaned. "Grandpa, can't I finish this chapter?" he asked, pulling the puupy-dog eyes.Yami chuckled."I think you should get some sleep, aibou." he said, standing."You have school tomarrow." Grandpa nodded."You can't afford another detention, Yugi." he closed the door.
Yugi marked his page and put the book down."Man..it was getting good." he said. Yami walked over and ruffled Yugi's hair."G'night, Yugi." he said, smiling. Yugi took his jacket off. "Good night, Yami.See you in the morning." Yami nodded and dissapeared into the Puzzle.
~~~*~~~
Jou was sitting in his room, reading the book.It was older, true, but other than that it was pretty much the same.Since Jou had already read some from Yugi's book, he was now in the middle. As he turned the page, a peice of yellowish, crinkled paper fell out and onto his lap. "Hunh.. What's this?"he said to himself. He unfolded the parchment and found some fuzzy writing.
Jou turned the paper in different directions, trying to read the words printed on it."Geez. I wonder if this has something to do with the story?" he asked outloud, again to himself.He shrugged it off, deciding to ask Yugi about it tomorrow.He turned back to the book and continued reading.
~~~*~~~
That morning, Jou hastily packed his things for school, grabbing the old parchment on his way out of his room.He snatched a peice of buttered toast, straightened his colar, and walked off to meet Yugi and Anzu to go to school.
~~~*~~~
Yugi looked over the paper Jou had just handed them.
It was break, and most of the class was watching Anzu and Ryou duel.Jou had brought his new book, which, ironicaly, didn't look all that new. He said an old peice of paper had fallen out while reading.
Yugi turned it around, like Jou had last night. "Tried that, Yug'." he said, in monotone.Yugi thought for a second."Why don't I ask Yami?" he said. Jou shrugged.
Yugi walked up to the teacher."Um..Could I be excused to the restroom, please?" he asked, bowing. The teacher looked up. "Oh..of course, Yugi." he said, waving his hand dissmissivly. Yugi cheered silently, waved to Jou, and walked off to the boy's bathroom.
~~~*~~~
Yami stared at the paper.He closed his eyes, and the third appeared on his forehead, glowing. Yugi was standing infront of him."Well?" he asked. Yami held up a hand.Yugi sighed and sat down while Yami concentrated.
After waiting a minute, Yami opened his eyes, the third dissapeared."It's in some very old language. Fortunently, I was able to translate it." he said, looking proud. Yugi raised an eyebrow."What'd it say?Hurry, I have to get back to class." he said. Yami nodded."Do you have a pen with you?" he asked.Yugi pulled a pen from his pocket and handed it to Yami.
Yami then wrote the translation on the other side of the paper in Japanese."There. Now, get back to class." he said, and vanished into his Puzzle.Yugi smiled and ran back to the classroom.
~~~*~~~
Jou took his paper back."It says; 'The Sword has not been laid to rest, So you must find it's weilder.Bring with you the Magician, the Healer, and the Fallen Angel.'" Yugi leaned back in his chair."What a bunch of crap.Do you know what it means?" Jou shook his head."Nah. It was in the story, but it's really confusing." Yugi smiled."Yeah, I remember that part.It's where Darek the Knight finds out about his purpose in the Quest!" Jou nodded."Yeah."
Yugi smiled and turned around. Yami cleared his throat.
//Aibou...doesn't it seem strange that someone would write something already written in the book, in a totally different language?//
/I dunno, Yami.Maybe they were in class, like I am, and trying to pay attention, like I am, and had to mark their page, like I did--/
Yami luaghed. //Allright, aibou, allright. I'll let you get back to your work.//
Yugi smiled and watched the teacher explain something at the board.
Only, his voice was suddenly drowned out by a rushing sound, like water. Yugi looked at Jou, who was wide-eyed. The two exchanged glances.
//Yugi...What on Earth is that noise?//
/You hear it too?/
//What?//
/DO-YOU-HEAR-IT-TOO?/
//YES!//
Yugi winced. Jou was clutching his ears.Yugi tried to ignore it, but everthing started to fade.
He soon started falling. Jou was falling next to him, and Yami emerged from his Puzzle.The rushing sound had ceased, but now the three of them were face with a new problem.
Yami grabbed onto Yugi and reached out for Jou."Jou, grab my hand!"he yelled, Jou reached out for Yami's extened hand, eventually grabbed it.
Yugi cried out, terrified. He clutched onto Yami's middle and yelled.
Jou and Yami hung onto eachother by grabbing the other's wrist.
Eventually, they hit ground.
Yami moaned.Yugi was still gripping onto Yami with a death grip, and Jou was laying a few feet from the two of them, panting."That was so creepy..." he said. Yami nodded. "Come on, aibou. Lemme go." he said, trying to pry Yugi off him. Yugi let go, taking deep, calming breathes.
Yami looked around."Where are we?" he asked. Jou stood up."I dunno...It looks like a barn." he said.Yugi took a closer look."This is the same barn in the story!" he said. Jou nodded."It is..."he was about to dust himself off, when he noticed what he was hearing. "What the Hell?!"
Jou was wearing a green tunic, brown leggings, and worn brown boats. Yugi luaghed."Oh, you think MY outfit is bad?check out you clothes!" he said, smiling.Yugi was in a white cloak with light blue trimmings. He smiled."Hmm..."he looked at Yami, who was amused at their playful bickering."Yami, you're wearing white!" Yugi cried out, luaghing. Jou smiled."Wow!I never thought I'd see the day!" he said.
Yami was wearing white. He looked down at his clothes and shrugged."It's not that bad.You too look like you just got back from one of those conventions."he said, smiling. Yugi poked at his new outfit. "Maybe we're dreaming." Jou nodded. "I hope so.These clothes are totally outragous!" he said, complaining. Yami luaghed to himself. "Well, why don't we find out where we are, then?" he said, walking over to the doors to the huge barn.
Yami pushed one of the doors open, and light flooded into the barn. The three of them covered their eyes untill they were used to the light.
Yugi covered his mouth with his hand, and then dropped it. "This looks awfully familiar..." he said, his voice tence. Jou look astonished.'This is crazy!' he thought. 'It's like we got sucked into that book...!'
Yami noticed Jou's look of panic."Snap out of it, Jou.We're gonna go find out where we are." he said. Yugi followed, tripping on his new clothes. Jou cuatiously stepped out of the barn.
~~~*~~~
Yugi, Yami, and Jou had been walking through the field, getting tired. Yami was especially not used to this."I don't get it. For some reason, I can't get back in my Puzzle." he said, complaining. Yugi looked at his other half with a bit of pity. Whenever Yami got tired, he could just go into the Puzzle and regain his energy. Now, something was keeping Yami from doing that.
Jou was trudging behind, dragging his feet."This sucks so much...!" he whined. "These boots are killing my feet." Yugi turned around to look at Jou over his shoulder. "Don't worry, Jou. There's a town right over there." he said, pointing. Jou squinted and shaded his eyes with his hand. "Uhh..Yug'...I don't see any town." Yugi cocked his head. "I see it." Yami looked at his aibou.
//Yugi...Are you alright?//
/Sure,Yami./
//....I'm feeling some strong magic around you.//
/Wow. You've always been the one with all the magic, Yami./
//I know. That's why it bothers me. I can still feel magic, but it's a kind of magic I've never felt before.//
Yugi tilted his head. /Maybe it has to do with wherever we are?/
//Maybe...Hey, I see that town you mentioned earlier.//
Yugi looked up."Yeah!There it is!" he pointed again, and spirits lifted. Jou cheered and Yami smiled."It looks kind of small, doesn't it?" Yugi said to his friends. Jou would've put his hands in his pockets, if he had any. "Who cares? A pit stop's a pit stop." he said. Yugi fell behind to talk to Yami.
"Yami?Do you know what's going on?" he asked. Yami turned away from Yugi, thinking. "Not really, Yugi...It's very confusing. We're wearing clothes we wouldn't normally wear, we're in a place that is mostly feilds, and seems to be from the Middle Ages." he said. Yugi looked at the ground.'I hope we can get home soon...' he thought.
~~~*~~~
Jou looked back before he entered the town to see Yami and Yugi walking next to each other. "Hurry up, you guys!" he called out. Yugi said something to Yami, then started running tward Jou.
Yami shoved his hands in his pockets.'I feel a strange presence here...' he thought. He shrugged it off and cuaght up to Yugi and Jou.
~~~*~~~
867-5309:WOW...that was lengthy.
Orion:glad I'm not in it.I can't stand Middle Ages.
Jou:Why are we dressed like that...?

Jou sat on his couch, watching television. "Man, nuthin's on..." he muttered.The news...late-night shows...infomertials..."God!Ya'd think something non-informative would be on tonight!" he yelled, throwing his arms up in exasperation.So, Jou sat and thought for awhile. What could he do?
"Hmmm...lessee...Honda is probably in bed, it's like...1:30 in the morning...Uhhh...Anzu and Yugi are probably in bed, too...Man, maybe *I* should go to bed?

Jou fidgeted."Maybe I should get to sleep...I am getting tired..." he yawned and walked back into his room.

Yami noticed Jou's look of panic."Snap out of it, Jou.We're gonna go find out where we are." he said. Yugi followed, tripping on his new clothes. Jou cuatiously stepped out of the barn.

Yugi, Yami, and Jou had been walking through the field, getting tired. Yami was especially not used to this."I don't get it. For some reason, I can't get back in my Puzzle." he said, complaining. Yugi looked at his other half with a bit of pity. Whenever Yami got tired, he could just go into the Puzzle and regain his energy. Now, something was keeping Yami from doing that.
Jou was trudging behind, dragging his feet."This sucks so much...!" he whined. "These boots are killing my feet." Yugi turned around to look at Jou over his shoulder. "Don't worry, Jou. There's a town right over there." he said, pointing. Jou squinted and shaded his eyes with his hand. "Uhh..Yug'...I don't see any town." Yugi cocked his head. "I see it." Yami looked at his aibou.
//Yugi...Are you alright?//
/Sure,Yami./
//....I'm feeling some strong magic around you.//
/Wow. You've always been the one with all the magic, Yami./
//I know. That's why it bothers me. I can still feel magic, but it's a kind of magic I've never felt before.//
Yugi tilted his head. /Maybe it has to do with wherever we are?/
//Maybe...Hey, I see that town you mentioned earlier.//
Yugi looked up."Yeah!There it is!" he pointed again, and spirits lifted. Jou cheered and Yami smiled."It looks kind of small, doesn't it?" Yugi said to his friends. Jou would've put his hands in his pockets, if he had any. "Who cares? A pit stop's a pit stop." he said. Yugi fell behind to talk to Yami.
"Yami?Do you know what's going on?" he asked. Yami turned away from Yugi, thinking. "Not really, Yugi...It's very confusing. We're wearing clothes we wouldn't normally wear, we're in a place that is mostly feilds, and seems to be from the Middle Ages." he said. Yugi looked at the ground.'I hope we can get home soon...' he thought.
~~~*~~~
Jou looked back before he entered the town to see Yami and Yugi walking next to each other. "Hurry up, you guys!" he called out. Yugi said something to Yami, then started running tward Jou.
Yami shoved his hands in his pockets.'I feel a strange presence here...' he thought. He shrugged it off and cuaght up to Yugi and Jou.
