Yugioh fanfic: at the amusement park
Yami sat looking blankly at the letter he had just been handed. He didn't know quite what to make of it. Since he had gotten his own body the Muto family pasted him off as yuugi's cousin from Egypt, that was all well and good but he was still not all there, so to speak. Once receiving his own body he found that modern life was confusing. Letters was not one of the things he had learned from yuugi during his time in the millennium puzzle.
"What do you have there?" asked yuugi as he walked in the door.
"Grandfather handed it to me saying it was from some kind of contest…" Yami said still a little of kilter.
Yuugi nodded. "Grandpa entered us in a contest a few weeks ago saying that now that your free you should be able to go have fun but he has no money to take us, so he found a contest, you seem to have won."
All Yami said to this was a raised eyebrow accompanied by a little pull at the letter.
"Here let me open it." Yuugi did so and began to read it allowed. "Congratulations Yami Muto you have won the opportunity to spend a day at an amusement park with four of your friends and a mystery celebrity who you will meet at a later date." Yuugi handed the letter back. "That's pretty cool, you should be excited."
"What's an amusement park?" Yami asked.
"I'm not really sure how to explain it; you'll just have to see. So who are you going to invite?" yuugi asked.
Yami looked at him as if it was obvious. "You, Anzu, Jonouchi, and Honda of course."
Yuugi nodded in satisfaction,"good to hear it. Now let's get to school."
Later at school…
"What you won the all pass contest! I only entered seventeen times!" Jonouchi shouted out raged. It was lunch time and the class was mostly empty any ways.
Yami nodded. "Yep and I'm taking you all along." Anzu did a silent cheer in the back ground.
"Thank you, thank you, and thank you!" Honda said hugging Yami happily. The ex-pharaoh attempted to push him off but was unsuccessful when Jonouchi joined in. Yami huphed and begrudgingly folded his arms. Yuugi just laughed.
This conversation caught the attention of Seto Kaiba who was sitting in the usual back corner of the room.
"So when is this thing suppose to happen." Jonouchi asked after releasing Yami.
"Next Saturday." Yami answered as he smoothed his shirt. "Now honestly, what's an amusement park?"
"You'll just have to see." Anzu said with a barley hidden smile.
Kaiba sighed and returned to his book. This was just fantastic.
On the long awaited day…
The group met at the game shop. Yuugi had spent all morning trying to convince Yami to ware at least a little sunscreen but was largely us successful.
"Hey guys." Yuugi greeted as the other three arrived. "I don't think Yami is to happy right now he's still mad we didn't tell him what an amusement park is."
"Thanks for the warning." Jonouchi said with his usual off handed way of thinking.
Anzu walked casually up to Yami as he sat in his favorite chair reading. "Are you ready to go?" she asked.
"I guess," he mumbled and set down his book and removing his reading glasses. "Im not really sure about this, but you all seem excited so I suppose I should as well."
"That's the sprit!" Jonouchi said as he threw one arm around Yami's shoulders.
"Alright, they said a car would come to pick us up here and bring us to the park. We will meet the celebrity there and Yami will pair up with them for the rides, we'll split off accordingly." Yuugi explained. "Does every body have sunscreen and water bottles?" all of his friends nodded.
A few minutes later a large limousine pulled up in front of the house. "Now that's what I call riding in style!" Honda said excitedly.
They all piled in and drove off to the pre-designated location. The four best friends of all time entertained casual conversation and Yami repositioned his glasses and continued to read. Not much caught Yami's attention other than games, competitive sport, books and the occasional TV show.
They finally drove into view of the rides that the park held. The group began to chatter excitedly. Yami looked up over his glasses. "What are those?" he asked confusedly.
"Those are the rides." Honda explained.
Yami didn't bother to ask any thing else knowing he either wouldn't understand or find out soon.
The car stopped just outside the front gates and they all piled out. "This is so cool we have the whole place to our selves!" Jonouchi shouted. Honda laughed and grabbed him around the shoulders.
"Thanks so much Yami!" Anzu said with a squeal. Yami smiled, he was glad to see all of his friends so happy, even if he didn't understand why quite yet.
"Welcome Yami and friends," Said a tall thin man wearing the parks uniform, there where two others next to him, "glad you could make it Kaiba should be here shortly."
Jonouchi paused in his dance. "Ah, so the all powerful Kaiba is our escort today." He chuckled. "Wonder how he got roped into doing some thing like this."
"Bet with my younger brother." Kaiba said causing Jonouchi to jump. "He said I couldn't be nice to five random people for a whole day."
Since the duel city torment and the arrival of Yami Kaiba was a little less obsessive and they were almost civil toward each other.
Kaiba raised an eyebrow over at Yami, "I didn't know you wore glasses."
"Oh," Yami said as he pulled them off, he had forgotten about them for the moment. "They're just for reading, and I don't really need them any way, they just help."
"Alright then, let's go." Kaiba said leading the group though the parks entrance.
The entrance was large and surrounded by lights and game booths, in the center there was a large fountain. It was meant for kids to play in, it had no pool at the bottom and could be mistaken for an elaborate piece of decoration until the water jets showed them selves.
Yami was to busy looking around to notice that he was standing right in the center of the fountain. "Hey Yami you may want to get out of there!" Jonouchi warned but too late.
The water jets converged on Yami who let out a little surprised squeak. He got totally drenched. Yuugi couldn't help but die laughing. Yami shot him a deadly glare as he attempted to wipe water away from his eyes.
Anzu laughed and jumped though the water jets, also getting soaked. All but Kaiba followed her lead.
Kaiba watched from the edge as the four tried to drench each other. Yami walked over to the edge and sulked like a wet cat, he was trying to wring out the water from his hair and Kaiba couldn't help but chuckle at his misfortune.
"Shut up." Yami muttered.
It was an odd sight to see his usual formidable opponent like this. Kaiba had accepted long ago that he was obsessed with Yami, even though he pretended not to believe that he was the sprit of the puzzle it kind of made since, so when Yami showed up at school one day he just accepted it.
"Have you ever been to an amusement park before?" Kaiba asked with a smirk.
Yami shook his wet head. "No, they wouldn't even tell me what it was."
"Why didn't you just Google it?"
"Since I almost blew up the micro wave I haven't been allowed to touch anything with out super vision." Yami admitted rather unhappily.
Kaiba looked down at his rival. His hair was already sticking up as usual and now he was pulling at his skin tight shirt to no avail. Yami growled unhappily and let it stay as it was.
"Come on guys lets move on." He said commanding attention from his friends; they listened and exited the fountain. Yuugi promptly hugged Yami causing his less wet clothes to return to soaked. "Yuugi!" he wined.
"Whatever, lets go on a roller coaster!" yuugi said grabbing his friend by the hand and pulling him in the direction of the ride.
"What's a roller coaster?" Yami asked.
Jonouchi grinned, "You'll see." Yami hated that answer.
The white roller coaster was the oldest at the park and largely made out of wood. It was also a good one to start out on. The seats went two by two so they spit up accordingly, Jonouchi and Honda, Anzu and yuugi, and Kaiba and Yami.
"You two take the front!" yuugi instructed, "It's a good place for beginners."
"We call back!" Honda said as he slid into his seat.
Anzu and yuugi took the second seat to the back. Kaiba slid off his ever present white trench coat and hung it over a bar. He was wearing a black turtle neck with the sleeves cut off and his regular black jeans underneath. He took the front far seat and Yami sat down uneasily in the one next to him.
The employees moved into position. "Please pull your lap bars down to rest comfortably on your lap." He instructed. They all did as they were told.
Yami looked at said lap bar a little confused and Kaiba had to show him how to do it. Ironically the bar didn't come all the way down to his lap, he was too small.
"Don't worry Yami, it doesn't fit me either." Yuugi shouted at him.
The two other employees checked all the safety restraints then signaled to the one controlling the coaster. Once the machine roared to life Yami jumped a little bit.
"You're sure jumpy to day." Kaiba said earning a glare from his rival.
"I'm dignified no matter what you say." He said looking striate forward as they were pulled along the track to the top of the hill. "So what's supposed to happen?" he said as the ascended.
"Well we get to the top then we drop." Kaiba said shortly. Yami paled slightly and Kaiba pretended not to notice.
Once the car did drop down the hill Yami freaked out. "ohmyholyfreakingcrap." He said in a shrill panicked voice Kaiba right out laughed at him.
The other four hollered and screamed. It sounded like they were having fun. Once the ride ended they all scrambled out onto the platform and Kaiba retrieved his coat.
"So what did you think?" Honda asked Yami.
"That was awesome, can we do it again?" Yami said, he was a bit apprehensive at the start but he had always loved an adrenaline rush.
"Thought you would. " Yuugi said with a self satisfied smile. "Let's see what other rides are out there. " Yami nodded and they headed off.
They pasted a game booth, Kaiba could tell without even looking that Yami would want to stop and try his hand at it. "Hey guys, what's this?" Yami said absent mindly reaching out and tugging at the nearest person who just so happened to be Kaiba.
"It's a game; if you win you get to keep the prize." Yuugi said simply. Kaiba could tell that he often had to explain things to Yami, possibly on a daily basis. "Do you want to try?"
Yami nodded, an employee with a name tag reading Gary took his place. "Alright all you have to do is get one ring over the bottle." Gary explained as he handed the pharaoh the ring.
Yami threw the ring and got one in his first try. "Well that's the king of games for you." Jonouchi said like he wasn't even surprised.
"Okay what prize do you want?" Gary asked.
"The pink one." Yami said pointing to a large stuffed bear. Gary got it down for him and Yami hugged it. The animal was nearly as large as he was it made him look like a child. "His name shall be pochii." Yami announced.
Kaiba had to suppress a blush. That could have been the cutest thing he had ever seen. He didn't advertise the fact but he loved the adorable ness of random objects.
"Okay what shall we do next?" Yami asked his friends.
"That one!" Anzu said pointing at a large coaster that had two loops and a really tall hill.
"Yeah!" shouted the boys in unison.
One of the other employees named shelly walked up to Yami. "Would you like me to hold that for you sir?"
"No thank you, miss." Yami said and followed his friends.
At the platform Yami placed pochii next to Kaiba's coat and hopped on to the car in the very front. Kaiba sat down next to him, "pochii, really? You do know that's a dogs name right?"
"Yeah well it's spelled differently so it doesn't count." Yami informed him matter of factly.
Kaiba didn't have time to point out that spelling didn't matter as the ride started up. The hill on this one was taller than the white roller coaster. Flags were mounted on the side of the track.
Kaiba could hear Yami reciting the names of the corresponding countries as they pasted them, "united kingdom, united states, France, Mexico, Germany, and Japan." Kaiba smiled a bit.
They finally reached the top and they shot down the hill and went back up to the loops. This time Yami didn't freak he was yelling at the top of his lungs. Kaiba couldn't help but laugh.
Once they got off Yami hugged pochii and gracefully danced over to a ride that was playing loud music. The others danced with him. Kaiba could tell they were all just being silly. It was the first time in a long time he could smile, even without Mokuba there. They boarded the ride; they all sat in separate seats this time to avoid the affects of the inertia from the fast spinning of the ride.
Once they got off yuugi was wobbly and nearly fell over. Luckily Anzu caught him, every body was so happy. Finally Kaiba gave in and played along with them, but not without the occasional snide comment.
"Alright so yuugi chose a ride, then Anzu and then I did, Jonouchi! You have been selected to pick the next ride!" Yami said with a point in his direction.
"The spiny one over there." The blonde said, said ride was basically little cages on a star shaped back.
"I think ill sit out on this one." Yuugi said nervously scratching the back of his head.
Jonouchi shrugged. "Fine with me."
"Alright, how does this one work?" Yami asked Kaiba once they were seated in the cage.
"It spins vertically and we can spin out cage around so we can flip around in circles." Kaiba explained, he had gotten use to the constant explanations. "If we lean forward and rock back it swings like so." He demonstrated.
Once the ride began to move Kaiba managed to flip it around and Yami was laughing so hard he started to cry. Apparently he liked this ride. Kaiba smiled, he was doing that a lot to day.
"Sweet, my turn now." Honda said once the ride ended. "Let's ride the swings."
"Do you need swings explained to you?" Kaiba asked with a smirk.
Yami was still recovering from the laughter and he simply shook his head. "I wanna do that one again later."
The swings were basically basket seats attached to a large spinning pillar of awesome ness. It made them all feel as if they were flying.
"alright, so now I think its Kaiba's turn to pick." Anzu said.
Kaiba had been thinking about what he would want to ride but nothing came to mind. "How about we play laser tag instead?" he could have sworn the eyes of the party light up with excitement.
"They have that here?!" Jonouchi asked. Kaiba just nodded.
"Okay, what is laser tag?" Yami said trying to grab the attention back to him.
"Trust me, you'll love it." Kaiba said.
The laser tag arena wasn't the best in the whole world, certainly not the best Kaiba had ever played on, but it was fairly big.
"Are we doing teams or free for all?" yuugi asked.
"Teams then free for all." Kaiba said. "I call Yami."
The response he got was a corous of no fairs. "Fine but its all of us verses you two." Jonouchi said.
"Fine with me, I've got the king of games." He said with a smirk.
"So, what's the point of the game?" Yami asked.
"You shoot them in the chest, and don't get shot."
"Rules?"
"Not many"
"So, hostages, spawn kills, sneak attacks?" Yami asked.
"Yep and any thing else you can think of." Things like this made Kaiba remember the reason why he only fought with Yami during games, because he was dam scary when he was focused.
The buzzer sounded and the game started. Yami was moving fast and low. Kaiba followed suit.
Jonouchi was slightly panicked he had once made the mistake of challenging Yami to a first person shooter, the speed which Yami learned was frightening, he had been playing that game since he was little but Yami completely decimated him and won. He feared a repeat.
The room was dark and he could barly focus. Yuugi, Honda and anzu were around him some where, but he could feel eyes on him. He saw movement out of the corner of his eye but he was to late, yami was right there. He was dead.
Yami's creep laughter echoed though the arena, Honda could hear him. He was hiding in a corner, he had all of the entrances and exits covered there was no way he was going down.
"Player one yellow down, thirty seconds to respawn." Said the voice over. Player one yellow was Jonouchi, "player three yellow down thirty seconds to respawn." That was Anzu.
There was a scream, "player four yellow down thirty seconds to respon." Yuugi.
"Kaiba you freaking scared me!" yuugi shouted.
Kaiba just laughed. He moved on to his next target, he wanted to shoot the mutt just once. Yami popped out of nowhere.
"Oh, hello," He said quietly. "Jonouchi squeaks when you shoot him." He grinned and ran off.
"Thank heaven your on my team." Kaiba muttered and continued on his way.
After the game Yami had the most points and yuugi the least. Kaiba was a close second as expected; he only lost by about twenty points.
Yami laughed. "Anzu you screamed so hard that last time."
Her response was a playful punch on the shoulder. "Let's never do that again." Jonouchi said he was still pail "I was fearing for my life."
The other four nodded in agreement. "Wanna go swimming?" Honda suggested.
The parks pool was large; it had three slides, a current pool, and two diving boards. "cool." Yami said. "I wanna try that one first." He pointed at the largest slide.
"Alright come on." Jonouchi said.
Kaiba found nice relaxing place to sit on an inter tube in the shade. He almost fell asleep he was so relaxed that was until his flotation device was upturned by Yami.
"Hey!" Yami laughed and swam away, or attempted to, Kaiba reached out and grabbed him by the ankle and dragged him backwards.
He pulled him out of the water and Yami splashed him, Kaiba retaliated by dunking him and before they knew what happened it turned into an all out war.
After leaving the pool they got cotton candy, Yami thought it was spider webs at first until Kaiba all but forced him to eat some.
Soon it was Anzu's turn to choose the next ride. "The love tunnel." She said it all mushy like causing all five of her companions to look uncomfortable.
"no." Kaiba said and that was the end of that, she chose the rocket instead.
"Okay so this ride shoots you up to the top then drops you really fast. " Kaiba explained. Yami looked really uncertain.
"I don't think I want to do this…" he didn't have enough time to protest because they were flung up and dropped. Yami screamed.
Once they were on solid ground again it was obvious Yami was having a small panic attack.
Yuugi ran up to him, "breathe in breathe out. Calm down you're fine, nothing to worry about." He was acting like this happens every day.
"Does this happen often?" Kaiba asked more than a little surprised.
Jonouchi nodded. "This happened the first time he rode a bus and he has constant nightmares."
With in minutes Yami was calmed back down and looking a little embarrassed. "Sorry guys." He was hugging his large bear again.
"Its fine lets pause for lunch." Kaiba said in a voice he usually reserved for Mokuba. He could see the surprise on Jonouchi's and yuugi's faces but nobody else seemed to notice.
Yami nodded. "Alright."
They had hamburgers and corndogs for lunch. "Can we have dessert?" Yami asked. He had gotten back his composure.
"Yeah, I have just the thing," Jonouchi announced, "funnel cakes!"
"Nothing should be this good!" Yami said as he ate them.
Now that Kaiba thinks back at it that was the moment that he knew that he was in love with Yami, the way he acted out of game play was so in depth and so utterly human, he could tell Yami felt every thing so deeply. He knew at the minute, with Yami surrounded by his friends with powered sugar on his nose, he knew he was in love and he really didn't care what the world said about it.
They all headed to the arcade, Yami found a motor cycle game and tried it out. Needless to say he won. They rode a ride called the samurai, Yami laughed like he did on the spinner. They played all day, finally it started to get dark, they would have to leave soon but they had time for one last ride, and it was Kaiba's turn to choose.
"The Ferris wheel."
They spilt up into groups of two and loaded on far apart. Yami was fascinated by the height they made it to, they were perched at the very top, "it's like I can see every where!" Yami said as the wind whipped though his hair.
Yep Seto Kaiba was deep in love.
