Hey all. What a better way to ring in the new year then writer's block on all of my current story. So for some strange reason I'm starting another on.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, any of it's characters, or any of the songs used. Enjoy. On with the fic!!!
START
Yami, Bakura and Marik were spread across a couch, sitting in various positions. Yami was playing with a water bottle, Bakura was sitting upside down, and Marik reading. A man with brown hair and ice blue eyes approached them.
"You guys ready?" Seto, the boys manager, asked. The other 3 all stood up from their couch behind the stage.
"Let's hit it!" Bakura said. He flipped over, landed on his feet and grabbed his guitar. Marik nodded. He set his book down and picked his own guitar up off of the ground. Yami smiled and took his microphone from the table next to the couch.
"Let's give these girls what they came for." The boys walked over to the backstage. Seto walked on stage and took a microphone.
"I hope your ready because now we have…The Egypt Brothers!" Screaming resounded throughout the theater. Yami, Marik and Bakura ran out on stage to all the screaming girls and boys. Yami blew a kiss into the crowd. A bunch of girls passed out. Marik and Bakura began to play. Yami put the microphone to his lips.
"I woke up on my roof with my brothers
There's a whale in the pool with my mother
And my dad paints the house different colors
Where would we be, if we couldn't dream?
And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We are more than you think
So call us freaks
But that's just the way we roll
You got moves, I've got shoes, let's go dancing
Pop and lock, battle dance [battle dance] against Hanson
If we lose, all the girls, they'll be laughing
Where would we be, if we couldn't dream?
And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We are more than you think
So call us freaks
But that's just the way we roll
And we're old enough to know
We're never letting go
'Cause that's just the way we roll
And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We are more than you think
So call us freaks
But that's just the way we roll
And I know
We get a little crazy
And I know
We get a little loud
And I know
We're never gonna fake it
We are wild
We are free
We know more than you think
So call us freaks
'Cause that's just the way we roll
That's just the way we roll
Oh That's just the way we roll"
Everyone in the theater started screaming.
"Hey everybody!" Yami called. "How's everyone doing tonight?! Next we're gonna play you a little song called Shelf!" He was responded to with more screaming.
***
*Earlier that day*
"Ew Jou! Get your feet out of my face!!" Ryou squealed, batting at the sock covered feet that were attached to a laughing Jou.
"Come on, Jou! Get those things back in their holders! The smell back here is terrible!" Yugi whined.
"Jou! Cut it out! I can't drive with that smell!" Malik said. "Do you want to get to the concert on time or not?"
"Fine, fine!" Jou said. He turned back to his shoes in the front seat and slid them on.
"Thank Ra! Now everyone, crack a window!" Yugi and Ryou both stuck their heads out of their respective windows." Then Yugi noticed something ahead of them. There was a baby deer standing in the middle of the road.
"Malik! Brakes! Brakes! BRAKES!!!" He shouted. Malik slammed the brakes and swerved off the road. All four were screaming.
CRASH!
The car slammed against a tree. They all sighed, and then the airbags went off and hit them in the face.
"What the hell?" Jou shouted, batting at the airbag in front of his face.
"Is everyone okay?" Malik called.
"I'm a mess!" Ryou sighed. His nose was bloody and his eye was starting to blacken.
"I'm gonna look so bad for meeting the Egypt Brothers!" Jou whined as he wiped the blood off his face from all the little cuts on him. Yugi shrieked.
"Now we're gonna be late for the concert!!" Everyone else's eyes widened.
"NOOOOO!" All of the boys shoved their doors open and fell out of the car. They each stood up and brushed the dirt off of their clothes.
"Who's got a cell phone?" Ryou asked as he pulled his own out. It was crushed. "Mine's sort of, out of commission." Jou pulled his out and tried to turn it on.
"Damn it! No battery!" Malik and Yugi both searched for their cell phones.
"Ishizu." Malik growled. "That's the last time you borrow my damned cell!"
"No! I left it at home!" Yugi cried.
"There's only one thing to do." Malik said. The others turned to him with expectant eyes. "We walk." They all sighed, and started walking towards the road.
***
*At the concert*
"Now I'd like to welcome back to the stage a friend of ours to help us sing a little song called This is Me! Give a big welcome to Mai Valentine!" Yami said, and was screamed at again. Mai appeared from a hole in the ground.
"I've always been the kind of girl
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What I've got to say
But I have this dream
Right inside of me
I'm gonna let it show, it's time
To let you know
To let you know
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
Do you know what it's like
To feel so in the dark
To dream about a life
Where you're the shining star
Even though it seems
Like it's too far away
I have to believe in myself
It's the only way
This is real, This is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me"
"You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that I'm singing
I need to find you, I gotta find you
You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me
I need to find you, I gotta find you" Yami sang. The entire audience swooned and screamed.
"This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me" Mai sang and Yami joined in for a duet.
"You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me"
"This is me"
"You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that I'm singing"
"Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me" They finished together, holding hands and staring into each others eyes. Mai leaned forwards and captured his lips in a kiss. The entire audience shrieked in upset. Yami jumped backwards and landed on his butt. His eyes were wide, and he looked mighty pissed.
"What the hell was that?!" He shouted. She put her hand on her chest.
"I thought you liked me!" She said.
"No! No freaking way!" He said. Seto ran out onto the stage.
"Okay everyone we're taking a short, unplanned break and we'll be right back." He grabbed Yami and Mai and pulled them off stage. Bakura and Marik followed after waving to the crowd. When they got backstage, they saw a shouting match.
"What was that? What the CRAP WAS THAT?! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU MAI?!" Mai sighed and brushed some of her blonde hair out of her eyes.
"I'm a seventeen year old girl. What do you think it was? Attack of the hormones."
"I'm a seventeen year old boy and you don't see me making out with everyone I see!!" Yami shouted.
"Same with me!" Seto said. "There was absolutely no reason for you to do that!"
"But I like you Yami!" Mai whined.
"I don't like you!" Yami fired back.
"Why not? I'm like, perfect!" Mai said.
"I don't care if your perfect because I'm gay!" Yami shouted. A resounding shriek echoed through the stadium. Yami looked at his hand. "Shit. I forgot to turn off my microphone!" He clicked the microphone off. Seto groaned.
"There goes your image. And your money. And your everything else."
"Not quite." Bakura said. Yami and Seto turned to him.
"Yeah, have you forgotten about our fan boys?" Marik said.
"Plus, since Marik and I are still straight in the public eye, we'll collect the fan girls." Bakura said. Seto nodded.
"We can work with that…" He paused. "Now get the hell back on that stage and pretend nothing ever happened!" Yami nodded, and the 3 of them ran back out on stage. Yami turned his mic back on.
"Hey everyone! Sorry about that. Who's ready to keep rocking?" Yami asked. Half of the audience was sobbing, but the other half shouted back like nothing had happened. "Now Marik is going to sing his song, A Little Bit Longer. Marik?" Yami turned to the grand piano that had made itself known in the middle of the stage. Marik played out a slow, sweet melody and began to sing.
"Got the news today
Doctor said I had to stay
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
When I thought it'd all been done
When I thought it'd all been said
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
But you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
Every time you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know
All this time goes by
Still no reason why
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
Waitin' on a cure
But none of them are sure
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
But you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
And every time you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know
No no
You don't even know
No no
Two, three, four!
Yeah!
And you don't know what you got
'Till it's gone
And you don't know what it's like
To feel so low
And every time you smile or laugh you glow
You don't even know
No
Yeah
Whoa!
Ooohhhh
So I wait 'till kingdom come
All the highs and lows are gone
A little bit longer
And I'll be fine
I'll be fine" Everyone in the audience was crying. Marik launched into an upbeat tune, and Yami started singing.
"Yeah

*Somewhere on a road*
"We've been walking for hours!!" Jou whined. "I'm gonna die of hunger!"
"Jou, it's been 5 minutes." Ryou sighed. Malik stopped.
"I see a car! Jump, boys. Jump!" The boys started jumping up and waving their hands. The car pulled over. The driver rolled down the window.
"Anzu! Hey!" Yugi said. Anzu smiled.
"Need a lift?" She asked. The four bedraggled boys nodded. "Hop in!" The four of them opened the car doors and hopped in. "Where to, boys?"
"The Egypt Brothers concert!" Jou squealed.
"Hey, I'm going there too!" Anzu said as she started to drive. "I got 5 backstage passes in a contest, I was planning on giving 4 of them out to random people but you can have those."
"OMR really? Thank you thank you thank you!!!" Ryou squealed.
"What happened to you guys, anyways?" Anzu asked. Malik explained the whole thing. "Damn, that sucks. Hey, let's listen to the radio!" She turned the radio on.
"Breaking news in the world of entertainment. Yami Moto, of the Egypt Brothers, has just accidentally came out of the closet and admitted he is gay. After Mai Valentine kissed him in the middle of a concert, he was taken off stage by his manager Seto Kaiba. Then they all argued not realizing the microphone Yami was holding was still on. We have audio from the argument!" Everyone in the car glanced at each other in shock. The night's previous argument filled the car.
"What was that? What the CRAP WAS THAT?! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU MAI?!" Seto's voice said.
"I'm a seventeen year old girl. What do you think it was? Attack of the hormones." Mai's voice replied.
"I'm a seventeen year old boy and you don't see me making out with everyone I see!!" Yami's voice shouted.
"Same with me!" Seto's voice said. "There was absolutely no reason for you to do that!"
"But I like you Yami!" Mai's voice whined.
"I don't like you!" Yami's voice fired back.
"Why not? I'm like, perfect!" Mai's voice said.
"I don't care if your perfect because I'm gay!"
"YES! OH MY RA YES!!" Yugi squealed.
"What?!" Everyone else asked.
"YAMI IS GAY! AMAZINGLY FABULOUS HAPPY TIMES SO AWESOME!" Yugi shouted.
"Yuge, chillax. You're gonna bust my eardums!" Jou said. Yugi giggled.
"Guys, we're here!" Anzu said. "Hopefully in time for seeing some of the concert!" The parking lot flooded with people.
"Let's just get backstage." Malik said. They all hopped out of the car and ran towards the theater.
***
*Backstage*
"I wonder when the contest winners are going to get here." Marik said.
"Come on, Yami! You're not gay! Someone as awesome as you can not be gay! Lemme turn you straight! Come on please!" Mai begged, hanging on Yami. Yami shrugged her off.
"No! I don't like you and that's final."
"Um, hi." A timid voice said. Yami, Marik, Bakura, Mai and Seto all turned towards the voice. They saw four dirty cut up teenaged boys and one girl.
"Who the hell are you?" Seto asked.

Well, that plunnie has gotten out of my head. Hip hip hooray for another story. TTYL.
