Incarnations- The Tale of Yumi
Lady Moon-Chan
AN: Another in one night. Yay! But it also makes me sad because I'm rapidly running out of story, and this is probably the only one I'm ever going to update this fast. Le sigh.

Chapter 3: Preparing For A Dance
The next day, Ed went to see the principal. It was decided that he would go because a) he had been a member of the Japanese government and was well-versed in the art of ass-kissing, aka etiquette, and b) he was a good speaker(as multiple classroom debates proved). He knocked on the door of the principal's office and entered.
"How did you get in here, young man?" the principal asked. "Ms. Rad-" he was cut off by a hand over his mouth.
"Come on now, chief," Ed coaxed. "don't throw me out just yet." He eased the principal into his chair and took a seat on the opposite side of the desk. "I only came here to offer my services for the dance. What do you say, chief? Hear me out?" The principal nodded. "Very well then. What are you offering?"
"To be the emcee. And Yami Mutou wanted to know if the DJ spot was still open."
"Hmmm. Very well. I suppose it would be alright. You certainly have enough pep to be an emcee."
"And the DJ position?"
"Mr. Mutou can have it as long as he tones down his taste in music. The junior high school students will be in attendance as well."
Ed grinned. "Ah, excellent! Thanks Mr. Del Mas!" Ed cheered, clapping the principal on the shoulder(with his left hand, of course). "You won't regret this!"
"Yes, well...perhaps you should go to class now, Mr. Elric." the principal said.
"Yes sir." Ed said, standing and heading for the door. He turned and bowed politely, then left.
Outside, he was immediately cornered by Sasuke, Naruto, Al, and Yami.
"Well? What'd he say?" Al asked.
" I'm officially the Spring Fling emcee and Yami's the DJ."
"Alright!" Naruto cheered. "Finally something's going our way for a change!"
Yami nodded, and they all went their separate ways for class.
Italian
Al was working on an Italian to French translation when the note hit his desk. He opened it and read Aelita's nearly flawless cursive. What did the principal say about Yami and Ed?
He glanced up and saw Aelita looking at him out of the corner of her eye. He turned the note over and replied, Ed's emceeing and Yami-kun's the DJ. Then he discreetly flicked it back to Aelita and watched her reaction out of the corner of his eye.
A smile came to her lips and she glanced at him, nodding almost imperceptibly. Then she went back to her Italian work.
Al smiled as well and did the same.
Later
All people who had a role on the dance decorations/food committee, as well as people with a role in the dance itself were called for a meeting in the gym.
Emily, the head of the committee, clapped her hands to get everyone's attention. "Okay everyone. We need to decide theme for this year's Spring Fling like luau, geek and jock, things like that."
"How about masquerade?" Ed suggested from where and Yami were testing the sound system.
Emily latched onto that. "Well, how about it? Who votes for a Spring Fling Masquerade?"
Everyone did, so the dance became the Spring Fling Masquerade.
"Now we have to decide on the decor." Emily said, glancing hopefully at Ed again, but he was now tangled almost hopelessly in the wiring of the microphone and speakers.
Yami, however, smirked and strode over to Emily, whispering something in her ear.
"That's brilliant!" she declared. "Yami proposes that we make it look like a festival called-" she looked at him. "What did you say it was called again?"
"Sakura Matsuri." Yami said, and a few girls swooned at his deep voice.
"Sakura Matsuri." Emily repeated. "So let's do this!"
AN: Wow. Yet another update. Only because these last two two were short little fillers, though. Oh well, review please!
