Chapter Two: Detention
Panicking just slightly, the seven of them took off running towards to school yard. They shoved the doors aside harshly and stampeded towards their lockers, all dignity forgotten. The first bell had rang shortly before they barged into the school and the last was due to ring any minute. Locks were hastily undone and spare papers flew into the halls. After speedily locking their lockers, the group split up to head off towards their individual classes.
Yuugi, Yami, Bakura and Anzu darted into their homeroom class as the teacher shut the door.
"Have a seat and we'll get started. I'm glad to see you four aren't late today; I'd hate to give out more detentions," their teacher said, the door clicking behind him.
"Hai Iruka-sensai," Yuugi replied politely. Looking around, they noticed the only empty seats were three in the front row in front of the teacher's desk and one in the middle of a group of giggly girls. Anzu took that seat, not like any of the others wanted it. That left the front row.
Grumbling, Bakura sat down in the farthest seat from the teacher's desk. Yuugi instinctively sat down in the middle seat to prevent his yami and Bakura from fighting in the middle of class.
This eliminated one problem, but caused a different. Yami, who was forced to sit in the last seat, was now beside Seto Kaiba. The former Pharaoh sat on the chair and edged it as far away from the CEO as he could. Seto smirked.
"I don't bite, Yami," he mocked, a grin smeared across his face. Yami continued to shuffle away.
"You might not bite, but I'm sure, if you were given a chance, you'd grope me," Yami snorted back. The former Pharaoh attempted to send a glare through the brunette's head, but Seto had returned his attention to his history book. Yami grumbled and pulled out his homework as Iruka-sensai walked by.
"Bakura, Bakura, Bakura. Please don't tell me you forgot to do your assignment again," Iruka-sensai muttered.
"Alright, I won't tell you then," Bakura replied sharply, crossing his arms. His eyes opened in shock as a pink slip of paper was set on his desk.
"I'll see you in detention this afternoon I guess. I'll be looking forward to it," Iruka-sensai retorted and continued with his inspection. As he reached the giggly group of girls, Yami leapt from his seat with a yelp.
"Yami! Sit down and do not disturb my class again. What is wrong with you?" Iruka-sensai ordered. Yami remained standing, his glare returning to Seto's head.
"Me? What's wrong with me?! I'll tell you what's wrong with me! Kaiba pinched my ass!" Yami shrieked, his face slightly flushed.
"I did nothing of the sort," Seto sneered, standing up beside Yami.
"You did too you ass-pinching bastard!" Yami screamed.
Simultaneously, they attacked each other, bringing both of them to the floor. Fists moved at the speed of lightning. Yami punched Seto in the nose and other areas of his face. Seto just smirked and moved his hands over Yami's body, faking a fight.
Papers flew everywhere as the two of them rolled around on the ground, crashing into desks as they did so. Yami grabbed a pen from the ground and attempted stab Seto. Tired of struggling with Yami while everyone was watching, he started to fight back with a stapler.
A camera flash halted their fight. Yuugi was standing over Seto and Yami, a disposable camera in his hands. With equivalent glares from both of them, the tri-color haired hikari ran for refuge behind Iruka-sensai.
Glancing briefly at Yuugi, he turned his attention to the two boys on the tiled floor.
"I don't care who started this, nothing gives you the right to fight in class. Both you will report to the principal's office immediately. Now!" Iruka-sensai demanded.
Solemnly, Yami stood and proceeded towards the door, his head bowed in shame. Seto, however, crossed his arms across his chest and bluntly refused to leave. Tense moments passed between the two in death glares from both sides. Iruka-sensai eventually won, giving the young CEO his famous 'Don't mess with me' look.
Giving a grunt, Seto stormed to the door, following Yami out of it. Glaring back, he could see Iruka-sensai on the phone with the office. Turning back, they walked silently down the empty hall. The tall brunette caught up with Yami and placed his hand under Yami's school jacket and ran his fingers across the former Pharaoh's hips.
"I don't see why you're not more like Bakura. He's a dark and you're a dark, so why don't you act more like him and refuse to wear the uniform. You look so much sexier clad in leather," Seto whispered. Yami stopped and turned to glare at the brunette.
"Why would I want to give you another excuse to stare at me all day and touch me whenever you want?" Yami asked coldly.
Seto smirked and leaned down, grabbing Yami's chin. Before he had a chance to kiss the boy, Yami slapped him and moved away. Rubbing his cheek with one hand, he placed the other on Yami's hip again. The shorter teen moved to retort but Seto pushed him into the office.
"Have a seat Motou, I'll get to you in a second. Kaiba? You must be here to transfer to a harder class," the secretary stated. Yami sat down sulkily, with Seto sitting beside him.
"I'm only here because this numbskull tried to kill me with a pen in homeroom," Seto replied haughtily.
Yami just crossed his arms and looked extremely disgruntled and mad. He wasn't stupid enough to pick a fight right in front of the principal's office.
The secretary pointed to a door to her right. "Then you two are expected."
They got up and moved to the door the secretary had indicated. Pushing it open, they sat in the plush chairs inside and waited for their presence to be acknowledged.
---
For the rest of the day, Yami avoided the taller teen. Thanks to the CEO's simple gesture, they had both received a detention after school. Yami smiled at the brunette's loss. Not only did he have a stain on his clean record, but he had to miss an important business meeting as well. Seto was right pissed. But it was still a loss to Yami as well. It was the last thing he had wanted; detention with Bakura and Seto.
/That damned camera is going to take a one way trip to the shadow realm if I get a hold of it./Yami decided to blame whatever he could, and that item just happened to be Yuugi's camera.
/Then it won't be going anywhere near you. I'm surprised Seto and the rest of the office staff are still in this realm./
/Well, I can't just use my magic in front of anyone. There's a chance someone might see it./
/Oh well, have fun in your DT./
Yuugi stifled a giggle and walked out the front door, leaving the school. Yami grimaced and headed toward the detention room.
"No talking, no note passing and no goofing off. You're here to be punished, got it?" Iruka-sensai stated to the three students. "For you three, I guess I should add no 'fighting'."
The two yamis and the CEO sat as far apart as possible. Yami sat by the window, Bakura sat by the door and Seto sat in the back of the room, his nose in a book again.
As the hour progressed, the sky darkened. Lightning illuminated the sky, causing eerie shadows to appear and disappear on the blacktop out the window Yami staring out of. The storm continued, rain now pouring from the blackened clouds.
The weather outside only served as a distraction for Yami, as the drops of water pounded on the window pane. Yami's distractions, however, changed from outside to inside as the power failed.

Cao: Well, that's two out of eighteen done. Sorry if I sound a little done, school starts in twenty days for me. Hope you liked the chapter. Oh, and by the way, Yami and Yuugi's mindlink thingies are the same because for some reason won't let me do the double /'s or 's either. I hope you can figure out who's who.
Dark: The YGO movie comes out in one day! It may sound nerdish, but I can't wait!
