KimyoTeki: Hello, all! This is a rewrite/repost of Diebound Valkyria's RING, which was a really great story that kept getting deleted. I thought it sucked that it was gone, so I got Diebound's permission to reversion it. Hope you'll enjoy!
Pairings:
Ryou/Malik
Fluffy/Bakura
Yug/Yami/Anzu (yay, a bisexual threesome!)
Jouno/Kaiba
Didn't Scare Me... Rainy Night
It was a dark and stormy night... MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! AHAHAHAHAHAHAH--! (lapses into a coughing fit, and passes out.)
The YGO gang stormed the Domino City Aztec Theater, hoping for a night of fun.
There had been a light rainfall. Anzu was smoothing down her hair. "If it gets any more humid..." She bumped into Yugi, who was looking around the lobby. "Something wrong, Yugi?"
"Nobody's here. It's so quiet, it's kinda creepy."
"Well, we'll have the place to ourselves, at least." She clasped her hands between her breasts, her eyes twinkling. "Tonight is gonna be so fun!"
Honda already looked bored. "Swear it."
Jouno asked, "What are we gonna watch?" to which Fluffy (who was known to some as Yami Marik) replied, "Stupid question for a stupid person..."
Ever the indignant puppy, he bared his teeth, growling, "And that's a stupid answer from a stupid Egyptian dustmop!"
"Wanna go, Blondie? I kicked your ass in Battle City! MUAHAHAHAHAH!"
"That's not how I remember it! Let's go!"
They closed in, fists raised, but before they could actually start fighting, Mai jumped between them and knocked them both on their asses. She winked. "We're watching Charlie's Angels."
Everyone felt the need to chime in now. Yami said, "The Lion King!" Bakura shoved him aside and snarled, "Tomb Raider!" Malik knocked on the thief's head and said, "The Mummy!"
Yugi squealed, "BAMBI!" at the top of his lungs. Everyone turned and stared at him, making him blush.
After a few seconds, Isis's soft voice broke the silence. "Anything is fine."
Anzu gushed, "Ooh, let's go see The Power Puff Girls Movie!"
Fluffy scowled at her. "I'd rather go see our movie."
Ryou finally screwed up the courage to speak. "Titanic!"
Everyone stared.
Ryou wilted and sighed, "Forget I mentioned it..."
"No," said Isis, "Let's watch that."
Jouno shrugged and ambled in the direction of the ticket stand, and the others followed. "Let's just ask for the special."
Kaiba seized the oppurtunity to take a jab. "We're not at Domino's, Mutt."
Jouno smirked, "But we are in Domino City."
"Smartass."
"I'll go ask." Yami went to the stand. "Excuse me, which movie is recommended?"
The ticket vender leaned against the counter, gazing in wonder at a piece of stuffed-crust pizza. "How the hell do they do it? Huh? What?" He tossed the pizza slice aside. It splatted against the wall, then slid down, leaving a greasy streak. "Oh, recommended? Well, let's see... Oh, The Ring is supposed to be good, but it's been pretty lonely... Rumor has it it's cursed..."
Kaiba sneered, "Hey, I like his attitude."
"Actually," said Fluffy, "That's not a good idea. I've heard it kills whoever watches it in--"
"Okay, we'll watch The Ring!" Yugi hopped up and tossed a wad of cash to the vender. "I had enough for seven tickets. Who wants to come?"
Anzu, Jouno, Honda, and Duke jumped in. Kaiba pursed his lips. "So the whole nerd herd is going. Count me out."
Serenity's brow was creased. "I don't want to see something scary tonight."
"Oh," said Ryou. "BakuChan, please take Serenity to see whatever she wants."
Bakura goggled at him. "WHAT? WHY ME?"
"Don't act up. Do we need to have another 'discussion'?"
Bakura sweatdropped, and his expression fazed into a resigned scowl. "Oh-- Okay."
Just like me and Mokuba, thought Kaiba.
"Well," said Malik, "I'm gonna go see Basic Instinct! See ya!" He took off like a gunshot, but Isis caught the hood of his midi, making him gag then fall on his ass.
"Oh, no, you don't! PG, period! That goes for you, too, Fluffy."
They pouted at her and muttered in unison: "Fuck."
Ryou wagged his finger at Bakura. "Don't forget, take Serenity to see something nice."
Bakura watched Serenity look over the titles, waiting for the ax to drop.
"Okay, I've decided! I want to see Brother Bear!" Bakura crossed his arms. "Great. I didn't wanna watch some kiddie shit tonight. I want blood! Gut-wrenching horror! Depraved sex!" Arms wound around him and a low, demonic purr issued forth: "I can give you all three." Fluffy stuck his tongue in Bakura's ear, at which point the Thief King let out a giggle that sounded like a cross between a schoolgirl and the Pillsbury doughboy. Everyone went
((((((OxO))))))
Beet red, Bakura took Fluffy's arms and moved them away. "Got a problem, Asswipes?"
Everyone turned back to their movie discussion, and Bakura was grateful. His gaze happened upon Kaiba. "Priest. I dare you to come with us." Fluffy was hugging Bakura again. He wiggled his brows.
"Oh, is the priest afraid?"
"CHICKEN! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Kaiba snapped, "You're on, Albino!"
Kaiba, Fluffy, Bakura, and Serenity went to watch Brother Bear.
Isis turned towards Malik. "You can watch one R movie, but with me."
Malik's eyes got big and moony with hope. "Oh, I wanna see--"
"Titanic!"
"Aw, fuck."
"Watch those lips!"
Malik watched sadly as Yugi, Anzu, Honda, Mai, Jouno, Duke, and Ryou went off to see The Ring.
Isis said, "My Pharaoh, why don't you come watch Titanic with me and Malik?"
Malik was at the snack counter, watching them serve up his popcorn. "Extra, beautiful, golden butter..." He wiped away some drool.
"Okay, Isis, I'll just buy a soda." He asked for a Pepsi, then began digging through his wallet. Shadi suddenly appeared behind him.
"Pharaoh."
"ACK!" He jumped a couple of feet into the air, then spun and glared at him, clutching his heart. "Dude! What're you doing!"
"They mustn't go in. They mustn't see it."
"Huh?"
"Your friends... You are lucky you did not follow their lead."
"What? What's wrong with the movie-- Oh, Dear Amun-Ra, is Carrot Top in it?"
"Beware, for you will not be able to save them at the last minute... or on the last day." Having given his standard vague warning that never helps anyway and is therefore totally pointless, Shadi disappeared.
Yami looked around to make sure no one had seen. "Damn. How embarassing." He felt concerned about the gang now, but he went off the see Titanic anyway, since he didn't even know what the hell he was supposed to be worried about. (Thanks alot, Shadi!)
Kaiba, Serenity, and Bakura were seated together. Brother Bear had begun.
Bakura sat at Serenity's left, and Kaiba sat at her right. Bakura slouched in the soft velvetty seat, arms crossed. "I would've even preferred Ice Age..."
Serenity looked around. "I hope Fluffy brings the popcorn soon."
"Why don't you shut up before I pop your-- OW!" Kaiba had reached behind Serenity and yanked on some of Bakura's hair. He scowled at Kaiba, rubbing the top of his head.
Fluffy came and gave Serenity a tub of popcorn and a soda. "So, what's happened?"
Bakura said, "Oh, Kenai is disappointed about his totem and he came back only to see that he didn't tie the basket and a bear took the fish in it..."
"Sheesh, you were UNINTENTIONALLY paying attention..."
"How can I not, there's a Ra-damned twenty-foot screen in front of me!"
A bear roared in the movie. Serenity yelped and hugged Bakura in fear. Bakura rolled his eyes, but Fluffy got pissed. Veins popping out on his face, he tore Bakura out of Serenity's arms and dragged him into the next aisle, where they tangled their limbs up and began a snog fest.
Bewildered, Serenity opted to hug Kaiba. Kaiba indulged her, as she would probably be his sister-in-law soon enough. Damn, he thought, why do I have to go through this?
In another theater nearby, the gang was watching The Ring.
Yugi and Ryou were huddled together, eyes wide and teary. Their tiny voices trembled in the dark:
"I want my yami."
"Me too."
Jouno was staring, and Honda looked half-dead. They could hear Anzu chanting, "Friendship, friendship, friendship..." over and over again. They hadn't even noticed when she'd started that.
Mai was chewing her nails, ruining her manicure and getting flakes of ruby red polish stuck in her teeth.
Duke was chanting, "Friendshit, friendshit, friendshit..."
Then came the shot of Katy's face, and everyone just about pissed themselves.
The mood was much cheerier in the Titanic theater.
Malik shook his popcorn tub anxiously. "Pop, popcorn! POP!" He was shushed.
Isis was completelyunder James Cameron's spell. "So romantic..."
Yami was unable to stop thinking about Shadi's vague words. Why does he even bother? Does he like riling us all up? He needs a life!
Malik hopped up in his seat, bored with all this romantic schmaltz. "Let's go to Finding Nemo!"
Isis turned away from the movie, her expression suddenly harsh. "Shush!" As she looked up, her expression turned sappy again. "Oh, Mr. DiCaprio..."
Malik started singing softly in Dory's tune. "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..."
Whenthe movies were all pretty much done...
Kaiba had fallen asleep and was gentlysnoring at Serenity's side. Fluffy and Bakura were still making alot of noise,but Serenity failed to notice. "I liked this movie."
Half-asleep, Kaiba mumbled, "... I like Jouno's mouth on my cock..."
"What?"
Kaiba snapped awake. "N-nothing."
Fluffy broke for air, and looked up. "Is it over?"
"Yes. Finally."
"Kenai made his choice to stay as a bear because Koda needs him," Serenity told them.
Bakura rolled his eyes again. "Did I ask?"
"Can we watch the ending outtakes? Please?"
Kaiba and Bakura snapped, "No!" in unison and began to get up, heading for the doors.
Fluffy scraggled, looking back. "HAHAHAHAHAHHA!"
Bakura dragged him down the aisle.
"HAHAHA! The-the ice one! HAHAHA!"
"Whatever."
"What was your favorite part, Bakura?"
"None."
"I liked when the bear died," said Kaiba. "Pure violence, yet no blood."
Fluffy nodded agreement, "But I liked the eagle, reminded me of Ra."
"Admit it," laughed Serenity, "You liked it."
Yugi-tachi came out of The Ring practically white.
Bakura peered at Ryou's face. "You're paler than usual."
"It was soooo freaky."
"And there was no happy ending!" lamented Anzu.
"Oh, man," said, Yugi, "The suspense, the creepiness, it stays with you!"
Jouno leaned over and whispered in Yugi's ear: "It won't stop." Yugi's response was to foam at the mouth and topple over.
Mai sucked her fingertips, which she'd bitten painfully hard. "It was... really something..."
"The point," said Fluffy, "is that you guys are so cursed."
Yugi almost shouted, "Let's not talk about it anymore, okay?"
Mai looked down at her nails. "Funny, though. I bit my nails so hard, they bled, and now they kinda look like--"
Fluffy broke in, "What's even more hilarious is that Bakura has the Millennium--"
"SHUT UP!" yelled Bakura.
"Hey!" said Mai. "My hair's just as long as hers, maybe I should dye it black!"
They all stared at Mai in fear.
Anzu began to cry.
Yugi put a reassuring arm around her waist. "Don't worry, it wasn't real."
"My dear Yugi," said Fluffy, "not even I dare to watch it and you fools did."
Honda asked, "Hey, where's Isis, Malik, and Yami?"
Bakura's blase response: "Dead."
There was a collective gasp, and Ryou smacked Bakura over the head.
"They're watching Titanic!"
Yami was holding Isis as they came out. She wept and blew her nose into a tissue. "It's so sad. He was so hot-- I mean cold..."
Malik was finishing up his popcorn. "Just keep popping, just keep popping..."
Yami perked when he saw the gang. "Hey, guys. Shadi appeared again, with another damn warning..."
Kaiba spat, "I'm going home!" He grabbed Jouno's hand. "I'll give you a ride."
Mai punched the air. "Woot! Sleepover at Seto's!"
Kaiba was promptly bowled over in a nerd stampede. Knocked on his back, he looked up at Jouno and grumbled, "As if I couldn't be any happier..."
Jouno shrugged. "Sorry, Seto. You take me, you take my friends!"
