Hello everyone! This was from the 'Odyssey of Randomness' which was a series of ficlets that I wrote for many of my school friends. This is Stage 10 Series 2, mwuhahahaha! Anywho, this has my two favorite aanime characters of all time, i.e. Daisuke from DNAngel and Ryou from Yu-Gi-Oh! Sorry about some OOCness, it just makes it funny, hehe/ Also, there are some OC's but that's because this was from the seires that I'm currently writing.

Here's a quick explanation of how I do things here:

- Mwuhahaha - actions during flashbacks.

'Mwuhahaha' mind-links

And... the rest is easy to figure out, for example, flashbacks are in italics.

Enjoy and please review! Thank you!

Note: I don't own DNAngel or Yu-Gi-Oh! - Aww...

Brown eyes stared into crimson ones. Two artists. Two boys. Two Paintbrushes. What would be the result?

"What's going on?" Maria asked, peering her head around the door to the art room. She was ignored.

"I said! What's going on?! Ahh!" she screamed as a splodge of blue paint splattered all over her face, making it go perfectly with her uniform.

The two froze. Their eyes widened with fear as the girl wiped the paint from her eyes, glaring at them. Daring them to make a move.

"Err… Bakura, I think it's time for our P.E. lesson."

"I agree… RUN!!!" Ryou shrieked as he grabbed his friend and fellow artist and Hikari, dashing out of the room as fast as they could.

"I'll get you two, that's a promise not a threat! Daisuke and Bakura! You can run but you can't hide! I know where you live!" Maria yelled through the door as the two sped away in a cowardly fashion, shouting 'Gomme!' at the top of their voices. Maria Vassallo's wrath was something to contend with.

Meanwhile, a certain other Library Person was sitting on a stool before the drum kit, mumbling in frustration.

"Stupid CD!" She growled before hurling her two drumming sticks behind her.

"Ow!" she spun round only to spot two friends, covered with many splodges of paint, standing by the door as though hiding away.

"O… k… What are you two doing there?"

"Shh…" whispered Ryou as his brown eyes widened.

Maria was walking past, a bucket in one hand and some rope in the other. She obviously meant business.

Once the coast was clear, Francesca spoke up, "So, what did you two do this time?" she asked, hands on hips.

"Well, it all started when Ryou and I felt incredibly bored…"

-Cue shimmering music as we go into yet another flashback-

-Ryou and Daisuke were sitting in the Art room. Daisuke was sketching a picture and Ryou was painting models-

"Ugh, it's too hot to work today." – Daisuke

"I agree, what do you want to do?" – Ryou

"Mmm… Fancy playing a game?" – Daisuke

"Sure, what's it called?" – Ryou

"It's called, 'Artist Showdown,' and it's kinda like those showdowns that you see cowboys do in movies except you're armed with a paint brush instead of a gun and the ammo is paint." – Daisuke

"Sounds fun! And of course, we'll clean up afterwards right?" – Ryou

"Yeah, after all, we like Mrs. Bond." – Daisuke

-The two look at each other and burst out laughing-

"Right, let's pick our weapons and get ready!" – Daisuke

"Alright then. Let me put my models somewhere safe to dry." – Ryou

-The boys tidy up the place, which is quite ironic because it was so that they can play a messy game. They soon ended up standing on the opposite sides of the room, staring at each other with a paintbrush tucked behind an ear, each holding a tube of paint in one hand with their pockets loaded with more tubes of the ammo-

"Ready Bakura-Kun." – Daisuke

"Yes, you ready Niwa-Kun?" – Ryou

"One…" – Daisuke

"Two…" – Ryou

"THREE!!!" – Daisuke and Ryou

-The two whipped out their paintbrushes and started flicking paint at each other, diving under desks as they ran around, paintball fashion-
