Kaiba's Macabre Halloween Bash
Chapter 1
Getting Into Costume
Black oh-so-tight leather pants. Check.
Black turtle-neck. Check.
Extra long flowy black trench coat. Check.
Goth-like chains extending from cuffs. Check.
Silk BEWD boxers for that extra comfort… check.
He smirked – then frowned, "Damnit, my chains got tangled again!" and continued to glare moodily when a voice quipped, "Seto, why does the KC trench coat have so many straps? Heeelp!" with a sigh Seto Kaiba fixed his little brother's outfit – the kid was going to be hyped up on sugar and the thought gave Kaiba a headache.
"You ARE sure of this, Mokuba? It's not too late to cancel."
"It'll be fun, you'll see!" Mokuba grinned.
"And you couldn't just Trick or Treat like a normal kid?" with exasperation, Kaiba sighed. Again.
Yeah I'm sure this Halloween party will be a blast… with the 'dorks r us' team and… candy. Lot's of candy – and booze.
Kaiba shuddered.
"Hun, I reaaally think you overdid it with the glitter." Mai said, absently prodding her friend's pink FLUFFY wings.
"Nonsense. I can't be a fairy if I don't have enough glitter to spread my love and friendship," Tea replied brightly while eyeing Mai's red extremely high hooker heels, it goes with the kinky nurse uniform, Mai had argued when Kisara and Serenity insisted that she would be the first suspect in a murder investigation with those weapons.
Their conversation was interrupted by a gasping and choking sound coming from the bathroom, "Not… so… TIGHT… SERENITY-!" wheezed Kisara, flinging the door open and collapsed on the floor.
"Oh… sorrrrry!" Serenity-the-ghost-bride anime sweat-dropped while helping Kisara to her feet – only to be rewarded with an icy stare.
"Yeah, you better be sorry – FOR TRYING TO KILL ME!!" Kisara growled, then added, "Mai, PLEASE – fix this damned corset!"
"Ohhh seems Vampira didn't have her fill of blood, huh?" Mai teased.
"Well, you know how grouchy Kisara gets when she hasn't eaten," Tea laughed but abruptly stopped when she received a shut the hell up glare from Kisara.
"This is kind of unexpected coming from Kaiba, don't you think?" Tea said in a voice thick with conspiracy as she fixed her pink sweater, yellow skirt and ridiculous purple leotard.
"But I think it's going to scary – being alone with Kaiba and all…" Serenity stammered and flushed, she had a crush on Kaiba and secretly wished she were his bride tonight…
"I didn't know Kaiba had another mansion – boy, he is rich." Mai then added, "Just keep Joey away from the alcohol is all I ask – and the coke…"
Kisara looked questioningly at Mai while arching a disbelieving eyebrow, "Joey. As in Wheeler. Get's warped on… COCA COLA? Typical."
"Whaaat, I've seen it does weird things to him okay?" Mai hastily added, not wishing to divulge any more information relating to Joey's latest 'hook' and with a bubbly laugh she called out, "Ready to wake the dead, girls?"
"Dude. Yugi's wearing a DRESS. Get the camera quick!" Tristan sniggered.
"It's NOT! I'm an Egyptian Pharaoh okay," Yugi blushed; he told the Pharaoh this was a bad idea.
Joey's voice came from within the garage the guys were getting dressed in; except the light bulb blew half-way through and Joey was finishing off in the dark, "Give it a rest Tristan! Now for the grand unveiling; you'll never guess what I am… teehee!"
Duke rolled his eyes, tonight's Halloween wasn't the warmest and to play the part of the devil – that is, devilishly handsome – he had decided to go shirtless with a spiked dog collar and a long devil's tail sewn to his leather pants. Did he look sexy? Hell yeah. But he was soooo cold and with a hiss of annoyance, directing an envious glance at Tristan's warm werewolf costume – putting the ridiculous thick beard aside – and called out, "HURRY IT UP, JOEY!" Poor Yugi, the guy's wearing a bathrobe from the waist down; he must be colder than I am.
"OK, OK! READY?" Joey called out gleefully, preparing to jump out of the garage and give the guys a fright, "Joey Wheeler is a-"
"Monkey." Duke finished for him, "Can we go now?"
"Whaaaat?" Joey's surprise only made appear even more stupid as Tristan burst into fits of laughter, "Oh man – Yugi's wearing a dress… but you – oh man… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
Joey scratched his head stupidly, wondering how he mixed up the scary Freddy Krueger costume with this.
"Gahhh STUPID LIGHTBULB!" he shouted angrily, kicking the garage door and prancing up and down, trying to ease the pain in his foot, "Ow, ow, ow…"
"Come ON!" Duke groaned, grabbing Joey by his tail.
"Nuh uh! NO WAY!" Joey protested, "If I go to Richboy looking like this – it'll the first time he laughed in years, man."
Tristan helped Duke drag him along, "Come on dude – maybe the shock will stop Kaiba's heart from beating or something; now do you want to scare the girls first, or what?"
Unsure of what to make of it, Yugi followed stifling his laughter.
Joey is a monkey… hahahahaha.
"Yugi, get it in real deep!"
"But it can't go any deeper, Joey."
"Aww man, you're so short!"
"What exactly ARE you guys doing in the dark?" Duke glanced suspiciously behind the oak tree at Yugi and Joey.
"Naw man, jus' tryna get this prank to work but Yug's so short we can't setup the goods," Joey whined, only to be interrupted by Tristan's urgent whisper, "They're here, get down!"
Lifting his head after having it shoved to the ground, Joey inspected the girls carefully – especially Mai in that short nurse's dress; Serenity's wedding dress was thick and bulky which was suitable for limiting Duke's chances of getting fresh with her. Tea looked conservative and slightly odd… Kisara looked the part of a vampire, wearing a short black dress; a lace and silk corset – and still loyally 'gothed out' with a choker… she looked vicious, especially with those fangs…
Suddenly dreading the revenge Kisara would exact on them, Joey gulped. "You sure about this?" Tristan only grinned, "On three. One…two…"
Serenity Wheeler is going to die! Kisara thought angrily, her boots catching in the folds of Serenity's absurd bridal dress, "You figure the guys would pull something?"
Tea turned to her and frowned, "They'd better not if they know what's good for them."
"Did you hear that?" Mai grinned wickedly; Serenity put her hands on her ears and whimpered, "Oooh, stop!"
So meek. SO Serenity.
The girls stopped again. The night was still. Too still.
Tea turned her head and noticed a figure heading for Mai – suspicious.
But before she could say anything Mai felt the breath knocked out of her as she was tackled brutally to the ground.
Kisara surveyed two male figures and was amused to find that in her panic, Serenity had run head-first into an oak tree – totally knocking herself unconscious.
Suddenly she felt a sensation as someone wrapped their arms around her – binding her goddamnit! A smooth voice murmured, "Got you." And only laughed maniacally as she struggled profusely; intensely aware of Mai against the ground with her arms and legs flailing to stop her attacker.
"HEY!" Yugi called out, and relief coerced through Mai as he, Duke and Tristan came into sight, even more so when her heel struck her attacker , "OW!" he cried out, stumbling.
"That huuuurt!" Bakura (The good one) complained, rubbing his forehead; a small diagonal gnash jutted out to rest just above his eyebrow, "Those heels are a life hazard, you know that?"
Duke and Tristan were about to question Bakura when they heard a series of low 'oofs' and saw the oddest sight ever: Tea and Kisara – beating the crap out of Marik.
"It was a joke, honest!" he protested, the two only ceasing when Duke suggested they extend some of that violence to Bakura for intercepting their plot to scare the girls themselves.
That wasn't a smart thing to say.
Instead, with a fiery glare they decided to express their livid fury on Duke, Tristan and Yugi – AND Joey, if they ever found him; when out of nowhere oblivious of three unbelievably pissed females, with an unconscious Serenity in his arms – Joey emerged.
He wasn't prepared for their response.
Kisara and Tea laughed. Hysterically.
They literally collapsed and beat their hands against the ground; tears streaking their faces.
"SO NOT FAIR! I'M HUMILIATED AND YOU'RE GONNA KILL ME TOO?" Joey shouted, jumping up and down like anime characters do – sending Mai into a fit of giggles.
"When… we're… done – HAH! Laughing, Joey… we'll… kill you… m'kay?" Kisara stammered between hysterical giggles, swaying unsteadily on her feet, "But that's probably not going to be for a while – HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ACK!"
A groan emitted from a crumpled form; Kisara knelt and took Marik's chin in her hand, "What did we learn?" she said in a mocking voice, in response Marik stuck his tongue out like a child as Kisara helped him to his feet.
"Oh my God - IS THAT FOR REAL?" Tea exclaimed, backing into Mai and pointed at the 'shirt' Marik wore.
"That's really sick, Marik! Is THAT a straight jacket?" Mai shook her head and leaned against Joey who was giving Duke dirty looks for holding Serenity.
"Serenity, be a good Christian and lay off the devil, will ya?" Joey called out; Tristan responded wryly, "Yeah this one steals virtues not souls."
Joey scowled, "WHAAAAT?"
While a fight erupted between Joey, Tristan and Duke over Serenity's virginity, Marik continued, "Authentic straight jacket; stole it on the way here – looks good right?"
Mai shook her head in disbelief and decided that Marik was in need of psychiatric help, but before she could comment, her thoughts were interrupted by Kisara and Yugi fighting.
"It goes THIS way Yugi!" Kisara insisted, fiddling with Marik's jacket straps.
"I still don't think you should do it!" Yugi pleaded, wrestling with her.
"Hey, what are you guys doing back there?" Bakura asked; Marik seemed oblivious to Kisara tying his straps.
"Ooh what does this do?" Yugi wondered and also messed around with the straps; eventually Marik's arms were bound behind his back like a real crazy person and started to struggle, "HEY!" He growled while stumbling and collapsing and then groaned, "Owww…"
Yugi stopped briefly before he entered Kaiba's other mansion, wondering why all his friends were so violent – "Especially Kisara and her homicidal tendencies," He laughed.
