Malik, Yugi and Ryou were walking home from school when they passed their favourite hangout 'the milkshake bar'

"Who wants milkshakes?" Yugi asks with a smile on his face already knowing which flavour to pick

"I want chocolate!" Malik replied grinning and jumping up and down

"Whoa calm down there." Replied Ryou

"Sorry" Malik giggles.

"Wow you are really hyper today Malik" Yugi commented turning to raise an eyebrow at Malik

Ryou smirked "I don't think it changes, he's also this hyper Yugi"

Yugi blinked think a minute "when you're right, you're right"

"Can't argue with that logic" stated Malik and that caused Ryou and Yugi to look back at his with weird expressions

They turned towards the milkshake bar and went in to get three milkshakes to go.

When the trio left the shop with their milkshakes and started to head towards their houses, when they were about to go their separate ways Malik noticed something run passed him at amazing speed

"Wow!" Malik Gasped, "did you guys see that?" Malik pointed towards the trees

"Umm no... What was it?" Asks Ryou with false curiosity

"I have no idea... it was like a black shadow just rushed past us" spluttered Malik

"I think you're just seeing things Malik." Says Yugi unsurely.

"Yeah, she's probably just hallucinating" Replies Ryou

"I don't know... It seemed pretty real to me..." Malik whispered but let it go and went slightly to the left towards his apartment when himself and his friend where pulled into the shadows

"You made me drop my milkshake! I'm gonna sue you jerks!" Malik shouted angrily

"Please... Don't sue us..." the first shadow asked weakly

The second shadow slapped the other shadow over the head

"Stop being stupid!" The second shadow snapped at the other. "You boys have been picked for a secret organisation called... S.O.H.G where will train you all to be spy's

"Cool! I've always wanted to be a spy!" Malik claps excitedly.

"I'm not sure about this..." Yugi says worriedly.

"Don't worry, if you come with us we will show you our HQ and explain why we need you." The first stranger says

"Yay!... Do we get cookies?" Malik replies suddenly serious

"Umm sure." Second stranger replies

"Yay again!" Malik smiles

*Everyone cringes at Malik's childish behaviour

"Can we go already?" sighs, Ryou "I have a karate lesson soon" (In this story Ryou isn't a wimp who can't protect himself; don't get me wrong he is one of my favourite characters)

"Of course, follow me." Replies the shadow on the left

Malik skips ahead talking cheerfully having a conversation to himself while Yugi was whispering to himself 'it helps with making a decision'

"Am I the only normal one here?" Ryou mumbles to himself

Malik somehow popped up behind Ryou "yes, yes you are" and then went back to talking with himself.

They finally arrived at the HQ where everything looked modern and technical. They were greeted by a middle-aged woman with glasses, long black hair and tanned skin like Malik's and was wearing what looked like a very sophisticated business suit, she was carrying a clip board and everything

"Hello Boys I'm the Ishizu (sp?), welcome to SOHG. The Secret Organisation of Hikari's and Gems. We need you to help us secure the safety of the world. Any questions?" asked the strange woman in the business suit.

*Malik puts his hand up and jumps up and down* "Me! I have one."

"Yes?"

*Malik looks blankly at the woman* "Uh I forgot..." *everyone cringes at Malik again* (Malik is on a sugar rush if you can't tell... and I think it fits with the story if he's a bit more psycho that normal)

"Oh... well... ok."

"Wait, I remember now. Do we get cool outfits?" Grins Malik

"Umm yes... I suppose so"

"Sweet!" Malik cheers with excitement "and where are my cookies!"

Ishizu rolled her eyes "the cookies were a lie, anyway girls we want to show you your rival gang. This is the secret organisation of Yami's and Gems. There are three members in this group who are extremely skilled and known for their unique behaviour."

Ishizu went to a pristinely clean filing cabinet and pulled out three brown portfolios on the gang members

"Oooh who is this? He is hot with a capital H.O.T!" explained Malik in a daze

The boy in the photo was smiling to the camera sporting perfectly white teeth, he had a beautifully sculpted physic, bronze skin the same shade as Malik's, Violet eyes and gravity defying blonde hair

"This is Marik. He is the serious playboy in the group" spoke Ishizu

"Dammit. How can a boy so cute be so mean?" Malik complained, still sore about the cookie lie

Ishizu smiled fondly, put the other folders on the table and opened them

"This is Yami and Bakura. Yami is the witty playful one... But also has a dark side"

Yami was a very handsome young man except for the grin on his face, it stretched to far and made him look like he had eaten something sour, Yami's features where sharp, his eyes were a beautiful crimson eyes but looked like they were clouded by darkness, his hair was gravity defying also, it was in a tri shape, it colours where black and amethyst tips with blond bangs framing his flawless face like Yugi but with a few bangs sticking up.

One look at Yami's smile and Yugi commented "Oh great! That's all I need, another idiot to deal with... No offense Malik" Yugi implies

"None taken" marik replied waving it off

"Bakura is the practically normal except for being a slight psychopath" Ishizu saying it like it was the most normal thing to say on an everyday basis

Bakura in the picture looked like he was trying to shy away from the camera but in his eyes Ryou saw a hint of madness just waiting to be released, Bakura also had sharp handsome features, his hair was white and fluffy like Ryou's but was a little lore spikier and wild looking and had sharp russet coloured eyes.

"Like I care, boring!" emphasized Ryou

"So... Will you accept?" Ishizu asked seriously

"I will!" Malik smiled and raised his hand

"Why not." Yugi shrugged

"I'll take that as a yes then. What about you Ryou?"

Ryou just blankly started at the other for a moment

"Umm sure, there's nothing else important to do with my life. It will keep my mind off of suicide." Ryou replied emotionless. (Ryou is pretty emo right now but don't worry it will level out, besides if I lost my mother and sister I would be even more emo than I am now and that's saying something)

Everyone just stared at Ryou when they heard what their friend had said

"What? You don't know how boring and depressing my life is." Ryou just shrugged of the subject

"Moving on..." continued Ishizu "You will start your training immediately"

After period of 5 hours of hard work, sweat and blood, much to Malik and Yugi's distaste, Ryou just smirked, they had a series of different trainers who were teaching them martial arts, gymnastics and other useful skills.*

"I'm too tired!" Malik whined

Ryou sighed "Stop your whining."

"Sorry..." whimpered Malik

"I think your training is over today boys. You've done great; I expect to see you next week for you next training session, ok?" Ishizu smiled

"Ok bye!" Grinned Malik "I had fun, except for the exercise..."

"Ha-ha, see you later boys" chuckled Ishizu

The boy trio head home exhausted and had no trouble getting to sleep that night.
