A/N Hi! First story, I'm excited! With help from my 'lil sis, we have produced this chapter. I keep her around to fetch me snacks and whatnot. XDD Anyway, on to the fic!
Chapter 1: What's a cruise ship?
"I won a what?" Seto asked curiously as the man on the other end of the phone began to ramble again.
The salesman sighed, "An all-expense-paid cruise! You were our one millionth buyer, after all."
"You mean like on a cruise ship?" The brunette asked, still severely confused.
"No. On an airplane," the rambunctious man stated sarcastically.
"Whatever," the CEO snapped. "For how many people? Or do I have to go on vacation by myself?"
"Sir, we own the cruise ship. So you can bring as many people as you want."
"Okay. You are beginning to annoy me, so I'm hanging up now."
"What about your cruise, sir?"
"Meh," Seto responded. The salesman sighed again; he had been doing that a lot since he started his conversation with the pissed off CEO.
"Let me talk to the guy, bro," Mokuba interjected, holding out his hand for the phone his brother was about to throw at a wall. The taller boy handed the shorter boy the cellular device.
"Hello? I'm Seto's brother, Mokuba. What were you two discussing that made my brother so angry?" the young Kaiba inquired as soon as the phone was next to his ear. The salesman quickly repeated all he had said to the CEO, sounding a bit exasperated.
"Ah. Okay. We'll be there on Tuesday. Bye," Mokuba confirmed as he hung up. He glanced at his brother, who was banging his chestnut head against the wall he had almost thrown the cellular device at.
"… What's a cruise ship?" Seto reiterated for about the eight hundredth time.
"It's a giant boat, bro. We'll be on one in two days," Mokuba told the CEO with a grin.
"… Shit," the brunette muttered, clearly aggravated about this whole "going on a boat" ordeal.
"… Fine… Who are we taking? I'm guessing we have people to drag along as well," Seto sighed after about a minute of awkward silence.
"Our friends, of course!" Mokuba winked.
"Houston, we have a problem. Over," the CEO growled.
His brother cocked a skeptic eyebrow at the taller boy, "And what might that be?" Seto took a deep breath, keeping Mokuba in suspense.
"I have no friends," the brunette stated, as if it was the most obvious thing in the universe. Which it was.
The young Kaiba laughed, "Well… Then my friends it is!"
"And who might your so called friends be?" the taller Kaiba asked in a bored tone, because he really didn't give a flying fuck.
His younger counterpart began to list names, "Yuugi, Yami, Anzu, Jonouchi, Honda-"
"Hold it!" Seto cut his brother off, "You're inviting the nerd patrol? Why would you do such a thing?"
Mokuba ignored that comment and continued, "Honda, Otogi, Mai, Ryou, Bakura, Malik and Marik!"
"… Someone just kill me now."
:-:-:
"You're inviting us to go on an all-expense-paid cruise? Are you kidding me? Of course! Me are Bakura will be there!" Ryou squealed after Mokuba had finished his slightly lengthy explanation.
"What the bloody hell is a cruise?" Bakura asked from the couch, not taking his eyes off the TV.
His hikari grinned, "A large boat with lots of people, silly!"
"Oh joy…" the yami stated, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
The young brit narrowed his chocolate eyes, "Oh shut up and go back to your Glee. Bloody Gleek."
Bakura blushed furiously and mumbled something along the lines of: "What about you and your Golden Girls…?"
"SHUT UP THAT'S DIFFERENT!"
:-:-:
"Marik! Give me the Ra damned phone! NOW!" Malik screeched, chasing after his devious yami. The taller Egyptian boy cackled and held the phone over the toilet menacingly.
"No! NO! MARIK, DON'T!" the shorter of the two screamed, tears forming in his violet eyes. The said yami was now jiggling the phone, as faint murmurs emanated from the small device.
"Malik…. This piece of plastic is talking to me," Marik told his light, while bringing the cell up to his ear.
"Hello? Phone? Can you read me?" the Egyptian yami spoke into the speaker end of the phone.
"H-hey! Is that you, Marik?" Mokuba asked after the aforementioned dark side had began speaking.
Marik raised an eyebrow, "The phone thingy knows my name? Cool." Both Mokuba and Malik rolled their eyes simultaneously.
The shorter Egyptian held out a tanned hand for the phone, "Hand it over, dumbshit." His yami reluctantly passed his hikari the cellular device, still confused on the whole "phone speaking to him" ordeal. By the time he had given up on trying to decode the situation, his light had already ended his conversation with the phone.
"Okay, Marik. Pack your bags. We leave for a cruise in two days!" Malik told his dark with a wink. Marik didn't even bother asking what a cruise was; he was too entertained with flushing the toilet repeatedly after getting bored of his hikari's rambling.
:-:-:
"Yeah, sure! Sounds fun! Maybe this will be an opportunity for all of us to finally get along!" Yuugi said happily, he had just gotten his "you've been invited to join us on an adventure" call. His yami looked up from the book on Ancient Egypt he had been attempting to read.
"Yuugi," the dark began, "What the hell are you talking about?"
His light giggled, "Just start packing! We leave in two days!"
Yami just shrugged and went back to his book.
"Yami? Why are you looking at that book? You can't read…" Yuugi pointed out, looking skeptically at his other half.
"… I thought it would be in ancient Egyptian…." Yami muttered.
His hikari patted his spiky head, "It's okay. We all have our moments."
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?"
:-:-:
"Truth or dare?" Jonouchi inquired Otogi, tilting his golden head like a Labrador retriever.
The gamer glared at the blonde, "Shut up! I'm on the phone! And what the crap are you talking about? We're not even playing truth or dare! Honda, control the dumbass while I talk to whoever the shit just called me."
"Kay!" Honda responded eagerly, tackling his best friend. Otogi just rolled his emerald eyes and held the phone up to his ear.
"Hello? This is Ryuuji Otogi. How may I help you?" he said, sounding like one of Seto's clone girl- I mean secretaries.
"One two three four, I declare a thumb war!" the pair of BFFLs chanted at the same time. Their large digits charged at each other, tipping the two boys whose hands were attached over to the ground. Ryuuji chuckled; he was observing the foolish "better than cable" battles.
"Otogi? You finished on the phone?" Honda asked, finally noticing the gamer.
Said gamer sweatdropped, "Yeah…. About an hour ago…"
"Yeah, stupid! I even knew that!" Jonouchi boasted.
Otogi rolled those gorgeous eyes of his, "No you didn't…"
"So..?" the golden headed puppy asked timidly.
"Idiot…" Honda muttered, while sniggering.
"You god damn hypocrite!" Katsuya accused, pointing a slender finger at his best friend.
Ryuuji laughed, "Wow Jo. Big word, eh?"
"Yeah! Yuugi taught me!" the blond replied.
"Anyway… We're going on a cruise!" Ryuuji told his friends warmly.
"Yay!" Came the simultaneous response.
:-:-:
"Hello? Oh! Hi Mokuba!" Mai greeted when she answered the phone.
Anzu raised an eyebrow, "Mokuba? What's he doing calling you, Mai?" The blonde shrugged, unsure herself. After Mai had hung up the phone, she was explaining the whole cruise situation to her friend.
"Sounds fun! We should go!" the brunette squealed.
Her blonde friend laughed, "I already told him we were in."
"Well, time to pack!" Anzu giggled.
Mai nodded, "Yeah! To the attic!"
"Alright, see ya later, Mai."
"Bye Anzu!"
:-:-:
"Alright, bro! I invited all my friends!" Mokuba told his brother happily.
Seto sighed, "How come none of your friends are your age? Or even in the same school?"
"I don't know," the little Kaiba shrugged. "At least I have friends."
"Well, I would take that offensively if I wanted friends. But in all honesty, I do not want annoying fangirls or fanboys stalking me and taking screenshots of whatever I do," the brunette told his brother.
"That's not what friends do…" Mokuba muttered.
Seto chuckled, "And you think I care?"
:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:
A/N Yeah! First chapter! I'm loving this story, mainly because I'm going to base it off my last five cruises, all jumbled together for your reading pleasure. Please review! It makes for a happier Meli and faster updates! Not because I wait for reviews to update, it just boosts my self-esteem and gives me my motivation! :D Hugs!
P.S. The Bakura being a Gleek was so random I almost threw it out, but I decided to keep it because this isn't a "serious" fic anyway, so shit can happen. ^^
