Scene 2: Fun, Fun at the Mall part 1
During the few hours that passed since this morning, the Yugioh Ohana and Chiiyami got dressed in casual (not their usual) clothes and folded up their futons. Chii-kun was already in her casual, home clothes: a tank top and shorts.
"Haou! How many times do I have to tell you not to cause trouble to everyone?" Judai chided with hands on his hips. The brunette stared at his dark half straight into his golden eyes with his chocolate ones.
Haou scoffed. "Like I care? Besides why not spice up the eggs?" the brunette returned with a smirk.
Judai's friends from Duel Academia left him alone to talk with…."air". They suggested the Yugioh and 5d's characters to do the same thing.
The Yugioh guys spotted Anzu, Asuka, Aki, and Mana entering the family room.
Anzu had shoulder-length brown hair with brown locks hanging over her forehead, and sapphire eyes. She wore a yellow tube top under a pink jacket. She had black leggings under her red miniskirt and wore a matching red belt. She wore one of each pink and blue bracelet on each wrist. She had a stuffed emperor penguin backpack.
Asuka had long blonde hair and dark bronze eyes. She wore a light blue sleeveless blouse and blue jean skirt that reached to her knees. Her skirt was cut about two inches above the knee in the back. She wore a stuffed tiger backpack on her back.
Aki had short dark pink hair with two long elbow-length bangs in the front. Her hair is also rolled back behind her bangs. She wore a pink and black long-sleeved top that was a fashion trend in the 1970s. She also wore black fingerless gloves. She wore long black pants underneath. She wore a stuffed white kitty backpack on her back.
Mana had tan skin and her medium length brown hair was uncommonly arranged and juts downwards in all directions. She wore a white sleeveless top with short sleeves around her shoulders. She wore a blue miniskirt and a red and blue visor on her head. The visor was worn sideways. She also had a stuffed green frog backpack.
The guys thought the girls looked normal as always.
"We're going to mall for some shopping!" Mana chirped.
"We'll be back sometime later," Asuka said.
"Okay, take care," Sho said. He had light blue hair and gray eyes behind small spectacles. He wore a yellow green sweatshirt and green-gray shorts.
Asuka grinned in response. She and girls walked towards the back door; opened it, put on their shoes; then went on their way towards the mall by foot.
"I bet you're hoping that girl Asuka buys a sexy, revealing outfit," Haou smirked. Judai's cheeks flushed red with embarrassment.
"Haou!!"
"Heh"
Judai thought that it was good thing no one heard what Haou commented, especially Asuka. Then the said girl rushed back inside with a grin.
"Would one of you guys mind if you gave us a ride to the mall?" she asked.
The guys switched glances. Then a man in about his young 20s-30s spoke up. He had dark blue hair in a short ponytail and small spectacles. His name was Blitz. "I guess I'll give you girls a ride," he offered.
"Arigatou, Blitz-san," Asuka said.

Meanwhile...
A girl was stretched out onto her bed, flipping through her history textbook and catching up on past reading assignments. She sighed, trying her best to concentrate on the material in her textbook, but a talk from downstairs was making it hard to concentrate.
"Gimme that book!" Ayame whined from downstairs.
"No," Hatori's deep voice replied back.
"Aww, but Tori-san! I want to read it!" Ayame said, his whiny voice getting higher and more annoying.
The girl sighed once more, then headed downstairs to see what was going on. She walked into the living room to see Hatori holding a book that Ayame was trying to snatch from Hatori. As the girl entered the room, she asked, "What's going on here?"
Ayame ran towards the girl and complained, "Maple-chan, it's terrible! Tori-san won't let me read his book!"
Maple turned towards Ayame and replied, "Hey Ayame, want to go to the mall today? I'm off work," she said, hoping it would distract Ayame.
Ayame smiled, "Of course! I'd love to go! And Tori-san will drive, ne?" he asked, nudging Hatori playfully.
Maple smiled gently, while Hatori's only response was silence and a small anger mark.
"I'm back!" a cheerful voice called out from the kitchen. The owner of the voice came closer, and it was none other than Shigure, holding a newspaper in his hand.
Ayame looked happier at once as he ran forward and greeted Shigure, "Gure-san! Did you hear? We're all going out with Maple-chan to the mall! Hatori's driving!"
Shigure smiled and replied, "That's great! Let's go!"
They all got ready, dressing up in their casual clothing, and heading out to the mall in a Honda SUV. Maple sat in the passenger seat next to Hatori to give him directions, while Ayame and Shigure sat in the back seat, eagerly awaiting their destination and admiring the scenery.

It took five minutes for Blitz to drive to Windward Mall from Chii-kun's house. He was driving a Toyota red van, which is also called "the Yugioh van". The license plate read: "Duel-Red". He turned left into the parking lot after crossing the intersection. He then passed many cars, which meant the mall must be crowded today.
Blitz stopped close to the curb across from Sears. Anzu slid open the door and one by one, she, Aki, Mana, and Asuka stepped out of the car. Asuka closed the door behind her.
"We'll call you guys when we're done, okay?" Anzu informed.
Blitz nodded. "Got ya. Have fun girls." With that, he drove through the parking lot and headed back towards Chii-kun's house.
"Yay! Time for some shopping!" Mana chirped as she hopped in place.
"First, let's cross the stree…OI!!" Aki was interrupted when Mana dragged her by the arm towards Sears. Mana had a cheerful smile on her face. The car quickly stopped when Mana and Aki rushed across the street.
Asuka and Anzu watched with a bit embarrassed and dumbfounded looks. Mana waved from the sidewalk.
"Hey!! Come on!" Mana called. She ignored Aki when she was trying to detach her arm from Mana's grasp. Anzu and Asuka spotted the middle-aged woman driver gesturing to let them cross. The girls took that chance and crossed the street. They waved apologetically and thankfully.
"Sorry about that."
"Thank you."
As they stepped onto the sidewalk, the woman drove past them. Mana finally released her grasp, then marched into Sears as she opened the door. Anzu, Aki, and Asuka followed their friend and other people entered too.

Many miles away...
A desert-colored SUV drove along the highway, driving slowly along the road. Behind the wheel sat Hatori, hands at the correct 10/2 position on the steering wheel. He drove steadily forward, trying to ignore the song coming from the back seat:
"99 pictures of Tohru on the wall! 99 pictures of Tohru!" sang Ayame.
"Take one down, pass it around, 98 pictures of Tohru on the wall!" Shigure chimed in.
Hatori sighed, while Maple had a small sweat drop sliding down her face. They both tried to ignore the singing as Hatori turned to Maple, saying, "How long will it take to arrive at this mall?"
Maple pondered for a moment, looking out the window, then replied, "We should be there in about 20 minutes."
Hatori nodded silently, then asked, "What kinds of shops do they have at this mall?"
Maple answered, "Well, there's a movie theatre, an ice-cream parlor, a pet store, a department store, and a food court. There are also other stores."
At hearing the words "ice-cream parlor", Ayame and Shigure instantly stopped at singing of 50 pictures on the wall, and both said, with gleaming eyes, "Did you say... ice-cream parlor?"
Maple was silent, then replied, "Yes, I did."
"We must go there! Please, Maple-chan?" Ayame begged.
Maple smiled and said, "Of course, it'll be fun."
Ayame and Shigure went back to their game, not noticing when Hatori drove the SUV up to the sunny second level of the mall's parking garage. He found a parking space, and he and Maple got out of the car, followed by an excited Shigure and Ayame.
The four of them walked through the entrance, which had a mural outside symbolizing the Paradise of Hawaii with mountains and a bird of paradise flower. As the four walked inside, they saw several shops, including a Mexican food place, a bank, a salon, a sushi restaurant, a corn dog shop, and an ice cream shop.
Maple and the three Mabudachi walked around, passing Spencer. As they passed by, Maple noticed a group of girls in the store standing around a mirror, trying on various hats from the hat rack next to the mirror.
A girl with long blonde hair glanced side-to-side thinking if the dark red hat looked good on her or not in front of the mirror. Then a girl with short brown hair shifted the blonde girl a little to the side as she shared the mirror with her. The blonde girl didn't seem to mind sharing the mirror with her friend. The brown haired girl had a boyish black cap with a pink skull on it.
The two girls turned to a taller girl who was looking at the accessories and belts. The taller girl had short dark pink hair with two long elbow-length bangs in the front. Her hair is also rolled back behind her bangs. The two girls asked her about her opinion about the hats they were wearing. The taller girl thought for a moment; but seemed to be interrupted by a girl with tanned skin and her medium length brown hair approached them.
Maple saw the tanned skin girl point to the back of the store, where all the "glowing stuff" is, and dragged the taller girl along with her. The taller girl seemed annoyed.
Maple looked up to see the Mabudachi standing near Claire's, so she ran to catch up with them. The three of them had concerned looks on their faces as Maple approached them.
Hatori looked at Maple and asked, "Are you feeling alright, Maple-kun? You look a little dazed. Shall I take you home?"
Maple replied, "No, I'm alright. I was just looking around."
Hatori looked back at her, slightly concerned, but he continued on with Maple, Ayame and Shigure.
In Spencer...
"Hey!" Mana heard Asuka and Anzu say as she turned to the two girls rushed towards her. Mana and Aki stood by a shelf with antique fantasy stuff on it.
Aki admired with awe as she looked at the dragon chess set covered in a glass case. Beside it was a dragon fountain with fog spread over the water. The red light under the water gave the effect that the water looked like blood and the light shone against the dragon. There was also another fountain with a dragon with four claws seeped into the castle and had a pair of wings. Another fountain had a fairy holding a barrel. It looked like she was pouring water from the barrel. The lights under the water danced shining prism colors on the fairy's wings.
"Mana, what is it?" Asuka asked as Anzu turned and looked out the glass pane of the store. As she did, she saw a girl with long hair fixed into a ponytail, accompanied by three taller men, one with long hair like the girl, but silver instead of black. He was wearing a long red Chinese-style dress. The other two men had short black hair. The taller man was wearing a dress shirt, black slacks, and well-shined leather shoes. The third man was wearing more casual clothes, a white T-shirt and jeans. A pair of brown running shoes was on his feet. The girl was also dressed casually, wearing jeans and a simple light purple shirt. She was wearing black shoes and a backpack was slung across her slender shoulders. For some reason, Anzu couldn't shake the feeling that she had seen this girl somewhere before.
"Anzu? Let's go!" a voice called, bringing her back to Earth.
Anzu shook her head quickly, putting the image of the four people out of her head, and replied with an urgent "Coming!" as she hurried to catch up with her friends in the back of the store.
2222222222222222222222222222
About 5-10 minutes later, Mana, Aki, Anzu, and Asuka walked out of Spencer. Mana stretched as she walked out of the store. She twirled around and faced her friends.
"Where should we head next?" she asked.
Anzu thought for a moment. "Hmm…how about Farrell's?"
Asuka nodded in agreement. "I can go for some ice cream."
"Yosh! What do you think Aki?" Mana asked the taller girl.
Aki shrugged. "Sure, I don't see why not?"
"Yay!" Mana cheered as she once again dragged Aki by the arm towards the escalator.
"Oi! Would you stop dragging me every so often for PETESAKE!!" Aki exclaimed angrily.
Asuka and Anzu stared at their friends as they rushed ahead. They sweat dropped and grinned sheepishly. They then darted towards the escalator to catch up with Aki and Mana.
222222222222222222222222222222
With the Mabudachi...
Maple walked briskly, followed by the three Mabudachi as she headed toward the ice cream parlor. Ayame and Shigure, who had stopped suddenly in front of a shop, interrupted her. Maple looked up at the shop sign, which read: "Marukai 99 Cent Store." She looked over at Shigure and Ayame, who looked back at her, silently pleading. She sighed and walked into the store, followed by Ayame, Shigure, and Hatori. They walked through the store until Ayame and Shigure stopped in front of a display of gum.
Ayame spoke first, "Maple-chan, can I have some of these?" he asked excitedly as he pointed to a bunch of colorful packages. Shigure also joined in. "Please?"
Maple chuckled. "Sure," she replied as she picked a package of gum off the display.
Maple led the Mabudachi to the register, taking out her wallet to pay for the gum. She handed a stick of gum each to the Mabudachi, and warned them not to swallow it as they exited the store. They then headed downstairs to the ice cream parlor, Ayame and Shigure skipping happily the entire way, Hatori and Maple walking at a normal pace, trying not to notice the awkward glances from the people nearby.
They arrived at the parlor and were led to their seats after a few moments by their waitress, who was wearing a white top hat with a red ribbon around the bottom, a red-and-white-striped blouse, and a red vest over it. She gave the girl and the Mabudachi their menus, then left them to decide what to order.
As they decided what to order, a conversation from the booth next to them caught their attention:
"Come on, Aki! Admit you love Yusei!" a girl exclaimed excitedly.
"No," Aki replied, sounding stern.
Another girl's voice chimed in, saying thoughtfully, "You know... I heard he kissed you to save your life... that one time..."
"That's none of your concern, Mana!" the girl named Aki replied, sounding frantic.
"You two make a cute couple", another girl said.
"We do NOT!" Aki yelled.
"You're... blushing..." Mana said teasingly.
Aki hesitated, then replied, "Well, he kinda did..."
Asuka interrupted, "Reach deep into your heart?"
"Saved you from the darkness?" Anzu chimed in.
At this point in the conversation, Ayame looked up from his menu and chimed in, saying, "Young love! What a beautiful thing! Tres magnifique! This Yusei must be quite the charmer, like me! Doesn't it remind you of our younger days, Gure-san?"
Shigure replied, a fond look on his face, saying, "Of course, Ayame, I could never forget the days of our youth, when our love started."
Ayame looked over at Shigure, and replied with a smile and a thumbs up, saying "Yosh!" which Shigure returned with a smile, as Hatori and Maple sighed and sweat dropped.
Aki's ears pricked up at the disturbance from the neighboring booth. She didn't like the idea that a group of complete strangers was eavesdropping on their conversation, so she quickly activated her psychic powers, causing bright light to shoot into the neighboring booth with a loud zapping sound. The two men in the booth jumped back with yells of shock. After Aki sent out her power, Mana, Asuka, and Anzu stared with uncertain sweat drops on their faces.
Aki turned toward the neighboring booth and asked in a scary tone, "You know how rude it is to interrupt, don't you?" Dark aura surrounded her as she spoke.
The man who had mentioned Yusei spoke up and asked innocently, "Ah! Excuse me, can you remove this board?"
Aki replied angrily, "Hell no! We don't know you!"
Hearing the commotion, the waitress rushed over to the table. "Yes?"
"Would you be so kind as to remove this board?"
Just as the waitress was about to remove the board, Aki chimed in bluntly, "I don't think it's necessary." She placed her hand on the board.
"Oh, but this is a great opportunity to get to know each other!" Ayame turned to Shigure. "Isn't that right, Gure-san?"
"Yes it is!"
"I'm not interested in getting to know you wretched fools who eavesdrop on other people's conversation," Aki remarked coldly.
"Ah…Aki, maybe we should….", started Anzu, who was immediately ignored by Aki.
The waitress sighed and looked around, then turned to the board separating the two, then took everyone's menus, much to the disappointment of Aki, the anticipation of Ayame, and several stares. Asuka, Anzu and Mana shifted uncomfortably in their seats as the stares went around.
As the waitress turned and went to wait on other customers, Ayame turned toward the girls and said, "My name is Ayame Sohma. What are your names?"
"My name is Mana," replied the tanned girl sitting next to Aki, "and this," she continued, gesturing toward a girl with dark pink hair and bangs, "is Aki." Aki replied with a silent glance over at the four people sitting over at the neighboring table, and gave a small wave to the group with a frown.
The waitress, who stood at their table with a pencil and pad of paper, interrupted the introductions.
The girls exchanged glances and decided they were ready to order. Anzu volunteered to order for the group.
"I'll have two hot fudge sundaes and one shrimp tempura."
The waitress wrote down the order. "Is that all for you today?" she asked politely.
"Yes"
With that, the waitress took the menus from the girls.
After the waitress had walked away, Mana continued her introductions, gesturing to the girls sitting across from her. Smiling, she said, "These girls are Asuka and Anzu."
The girls Mana had introduced smiled over at Ayame and the rest, saying "It's nice to meet you all."
After the girls had been introduced, Asuka piped up and turned to Maple, asking, "What are your names?"
Gesturing to the three Mabudachi, Maple replied, "The man sitting next to me is Hatori Sohma, and the one sitting diagonally across from him is Shigure Sohma, his friend and cousin. Actually all three of them are cousins and are the same age."
Hatori turned to the girls, replying with a small smile and a curt "Hello. It is nice to meet you."
Shigure replied with a happier greeting, saying "Hi! It's nice to meet you as well."
Maple smiled, then turned to the girls, saying "And I'm Maple. I am Chii-kun's friend. It is nice to meet all of you. I hope to get to know you better."
"Ah," Anzu grinned in acknowledgment. No wonder she seemed familiar. I've seen a picture of her after Chii-kun received it. "We hope to get to you know you, too, ne girls?"
Asuka and Mana nodded. Aki gave a little nod.
After the introductions, the waitress came up to the table with a tray of the food they ordered and a food stand. She placed it on the stand, and picked up a dish of shrimp tempura, placing the plate on the table, followed by the two fudge sundaes, which Ayame looked longingly at. The waitress then placed eight plates and small sundae glasses on the table for everyone's portions.

Maple- Thanks so much for reading! Just a small translation of the French phrase Ayame uses (Tres magnifique). This phrase means "How magnificent/How wonderful!" or literally, "Very magnificent". So now you know. Please rate and review.
Shigure- Thanks for reading, and I'd like to see some reviews from some high school girls.
Chii-kun- Read and Review People!! We highly demand it! Look forward for Part 2!
