Disclaimer: He-lloooooo Zexal Archive! Miss me? I missed you! Anyway, since my 'Epic Rap Battles of TCG' started getting a little more recognition after adding the characters, I've decided to do another multi-chapter fic similar to it. More will be explained in the end so let's get on with it, this is chapter 1, enjoy!
Chapter 1: Backfired Plan From Outer Space
"C'mon guys, hurry up!" yelled Yuma impatiently in his living room, "we don't have all night."
"Actually, we do," assured Kaito walking in and right past him, "remind me again why we're watching films your friends recommended?"
"Could've been worse," Ryoga stepped in behind him, "the rest of them could've been here with us."
The Water duelist stepped up to Kaito and the two glared at each other until Yuma took notice.
"C'mon guys, it's Friday, let's not get into another argument, or a duel, I'm actually really wantin' to see this movie."
Ryoga and Kaito sighed and decided to follow their friend's request, "fine, we'll try to get along," Ryoga turned to the Galaxy-Eyes Master, eye twitching and mumbling his voice.
"S-so…how's your-"
"Oh shut up Ryoga," Kaito rolled his eyes, "you know how she is."
The Water duelist scoffed yet he was relieved, at least he didn't have to hear about it. The two parted ways to two separate couches with Yuma sitting in the middle one in front of the screen.
Ever since the war on the Barians ended and everything else with Kaito's problem with Number 107, Yuma noticed that all they ever did was hunt Numbers and duel almost every day. For the first time ever he finally had enough and wanted to do something different. Kotori suggested friendly male bonding between the three over something they all liked, besides dueling. Eating out at restaurants was out of the question right away, watching Gauche would only entertain them for so long but it had dueling in it so they needed a break from it and they didn't have time for part-time jobs, apparently saving the world seemed more important. That would guarantee a good future for them financially; taxes would look like mere child's play in comparison.
Yuma went to Kaito and Ryoga for their suggestions and the three settled on watching films and reviewing them. Right away, Yuma's group of friends started recommending their favorite films for them to watch since they themselves enjoyed them so much. They made sure that this became a thing on Fridays and so it was agreed. What they did not agree on was that it would only be the three of them, no one else. However, it looked to be better since without so many people, Ryoga and Kaito wouldn't feel uncomfortable, and since they already knew each other well made it sound slightly decent, despite the glares every now and then. So every Friday, the boys would take a break from Number hunting and dueling by relaxing and watching a film or two that night. With no jobs and not enough money, they were stuck watching whatever was out in video stores as opposed to the theater. Kaito had enough for himself but knew he wouldn't hear the end of it if he left Yuma and Ryoga behind.
"So what're we watchin' today?" Ryoga asked.
"Well first," Yuma answered as he looked at the movie's case, "we're watchin' 'Plan 9 From Outer Space'!"
Kaito looked up, "who recommended that?"
"The store clerk."
Both Ryoga and Kaito sweatdropped, "ohh this is going to be a long night."
An hour and nineteen minutes later…
Ryoga took off his shoe and threw it at Yuma's head, "ow!" the young duelist rubbed his head, "what was that for?!"
"I knew this was a mistake from the start!" he responded, "Yuma, you never take a film recommended by the clerk, they're surrounded by them all day, you thinkthey're gonna' say anything positive about any of 'em?!"
"I've actually been to outer space!" Kaito yelled at the end credits, "I even died, this is what they thought space looked like?! I can only imagine how they thought the afterlife looked!"
"Well sooo-rrryyy, I didn't know!" Yuma stuck out his tongue at them, Ryoga threatened him by attempting to throw his other shoe at him but he quickly ran to the screen.
"Maybe the next film will make up for it."
"You'd better hope so, they say you learn things from movies and you don't want me to take up something you'll later regret."
"Hey, Ryoga," Kaito called out to him, "put your shoe back on, no one said you could make yourself feel at home here."
The Water duelist growled and grumbled under his breath while the Galaxy-Eyes Master smirked in triumph. Upon picking up his shoe, he looked at the case Yuma was holding, "what're we watching now?"
Yuma showed him the cover that showed a figure in almost complete silhouette, "The Passion of the Christ!" he exclaimed, "what could go wrong?..."
2 hours and 6 minutes later…
"Yuma get back here!" Ryoga yelled as he chased Yuma out of the house and onto the streets, "I told you I was gonna' learn something!"
"I'm sorry Ryoga!" Yuma yelled back as he tried outrunning his chaser, "but how was I supposed to know it had all that violence! C'mon, we're supposed to be bonding!"
"Oh we'll bond, alright!"
Ryoga ran and saw a few pieces of wood that were about to be picked up by Litterbots, he quickly grabbed them and continued running after the young duelist.
"Guess what I learned today?! I won't use nails but duct tape will do! Kaito, get over here and gimme' a hand!"
Kaito was still inside Yuma's house with his face buried in his hands, "ugh," he moaned, "this Gibson guy…they actually let him direct…?! They're really pushin' it."
A/N: So yeah, these chapters are going to be pretty short and brief, I'm mainly focusing on their reactions and aftermath on how they take the films. Not all of them will be bad, some will be good but not all three boys will have the same opinions on the matter. Also, they'll be having special guests from time to time to watch movies with them so I won't be excluding anyone's favorite character :-) and finally, this won't be a weekly thing like I usually do, at least not until I'm done with my other fic 'The Crow: 9 Lives,' so I'm not really back per se but I'll still update, just not weekly like I said. Since these chapters are short I might do one every other Friday or so, it will always be on a Friday, but still, I want to know what you guys think. Thanks for reading everyone, be sure to review so I'll know if this was a good idea or not, I also want to apologize to anyone if I offended you by putting in 'Passion of the Christ,' I'm Catholic myself so I'm not going up against any religion, this was done for comedic purposes, not to insult. Thanks again, I'll see you soon!
