Hey guys! Here's another update and I still don't know exactly what's going to happen in this story, although I have been thinking of some plots to stick in here. Basically what I'm saying is this story is a mystery for all of us. Enjoy!
Chapter 7
Tea and Yugi's jaws dropped at the sight of Yuko Mutou, but isn't that what everyone would do if they saw a miniature version of themselves combined? Yuko couldn't help but put on his most innocent face he could muster, which was pretty damn innocent. Seriously, that boy could make the coldest of hearts melt with his warming smile. He looked up at the two then smiled and waved. Tea and Yugi waved back as though they were in a trance. The rest of the group saw what game Yuko was playing and couldn't help but find it humerous. Yuko got up from the dining table to shake their hands.
"Hi. I'm Yuko. Nice to meet you. I already know you but... I mean...nevermind." He made sure to giggle slightly like the naive boy he was acting as. He smiled again and went back to his spot at the table. Doing this little activity was going to pay off later. Yuko loved practical jokes, but one needed to make a good first impression to not get caught by the unsuspected.
Tea and Yugi looked at one another, and then back to their future son, and once more they glanced at each other before taking a seat. This situation was one of the weirdest ones they had ever come across. On the table there was toast and many different kinds of jelly, jams, and other things you could slap on a slice of toast. There was also some delicious veggies such and salted cucumbers and red bell peppers. Everyone was chatting at the table and enjoying their breakfast, thought Tea and Yugi mostly listened. Even after no one was actually eating, they stayed at the table.
"So….," Yugi said. "Any idea on how to reverse this spell?" Everyone held clueless faces. It was obvious that they all are new to this mysterious book concept, and that it most likely wasn't shadow magic. Unless there was another form of shadow magic, which was highly unlikely.
"Did anyone see the book come with us?" Ryou asked suddenly. Everyone's eyes widened at the possibility. They dashed to the living room and searched every nook and cranny. Unfortunately the book could not be found.
"Well then. This sucks. How are we gonna get back. I mean the futures awesome and all, but we gotta go home." Joey said. He sighed as he collapsed onto the fluffy couch.
"Don't sweat it, man," Tristan said and plopped down next to the blond. "We'll get out this situation like we always do."
"Yeah, I know." Everyone sat in silence pondering of anything they could could use or research to find a solution to this time travel mishap. The doorbell rang throughout the house, expelling everyone from their land of imagination. Yuko raced to the door to discover Jasmine and the Touzokus. He gave a look to his sister saying 'What are you doing!'
"They know," She stated, pushing past him allowing their close friends to pass by.
"You told them!" Yuko yelled. Everyone heard his shout and sighed. Mr. 'Kura chuckled. "Ok, whatever. I don't think that the whole facade was gonna hold up anyway. Bakura already interrogated me. " He looked up to the future Yami Bakura. "Hey, did you know you can be really creepy when you wanted to be?"
"What like this?" He demonstrated by bending down to the boy's level and giving him a wicked grin that said: 'I'm going to kill you this instant'.
"Yup. Just like that." Yuko backed up. How come he didn't ask about that look earlier? Maybe he could learn to turn his face into a frightening sight.
"Where's Yugi?" Marik asked. They all heard Yugi yell:
"In the living room!" And that's where the group headed. However Jasmine, Yuko, and Estella went into Jasmine's messy room, yet it has a inviting home-welcoming feeling to it.
"I have a feeling it's gonna get chaotic down there," Jasmine said. And indeed it was starting to get crazy. In the living room, Former Dark Bakura step out the ring to meet his future self. He stared at himself thinking of how an idiot the other one was for not creating the destruction of the world, or at least ruling over it. The Former took Bakura's hand, and dragged him to the kitchen. Once they were alone he looked him dead in the eye.
"How the hell did you accomplish this?!" Former Bakura yelled.
"You mean a life in which actually like very much?" replied smugly. He leaned on the counter showing that he had much confidence in himself. Former Yami Bakura showed nothing, but anger in his eyes. He couldn't believe that he, the mighty King of Thieves, the Darkness, hadn't accomplished his lifelong goal.
"Listen, I just need to know what-"
"Bakura!" Yami shouted as he entered the kitchen. Bakura sighed. Of course the high and mighty Pharaoh decided to interrupt him. He should've foreseen this.
"Must you shout my name every time you see me. Ra, I'm standing right next to you. What the hell do you want?"
Yami stared at Dark Bakura, then his tan future self who was chuckling at his Former's remark.
"Who's this?" He asked.
Mr.'Kura smirked and told the Pharaoh who he was with pride. The other two stared at him. Bakura thinking about what game this future version of himself was playing. Yami thought that it was all quiet strange. Pieces of this unexplained puzzle were starting to fit in his mind. 'So if that's Bakura…,' He thought. 'And that girl was with him and Marik then… could it...no way! But…'
His thoughts trailed into nothingness. Before Yami had realized it he was in deep thought. Yami Bakura saw no need to continue discussing this matter so he went back to the living room where the others were discussing the main issue.
OoOoOoOoOoO
So…. are we just gonna stay here and pretend that absolutely nothing is going on downstairs?" Estella asked. Her face held the most lifeless expression. She was just dieing to get some action, but doing mischievous tasks wasn't so fun without your closest friends by your side.
"I don't wanna walk into chaos. I already said it before."
"Come on, Sis. Let's do something!" Yuko pleaded. He flopped onto her bed and breathed out a long sigh.
Jasmine huffed. "Fine. Let's do something."
"TO UNCLE RYOU WE GO!"
OoOoOoOoOoO
The gang heard Estella's yell, though they could decipher what she said for the words lost it's energy as it fell downstairs.
"Who was that?" Tristan asked.
Marik sighed. "'Stella."
Her loud thunking footsteps rang in everyone's ears as she approached the living room. Jasmine trailed behind her. Yuko looked excited while Jasmine seemed very curious. She glomped Uncle Ryou to be tightly. She noticed he didn't hug her back, but of course that was expected. Estella was only surprised to see that Ryou was reacting shyly. Panic and confusion was written across his face. The young woman's jaw dropped, (though it held a slight smirk) and she stepped back to gaze at the teen.
"No...Friggin...Way…" She peered at her father, and back to Bakura. She cleared her throat. "Why hello, Ryou. How have you been?" Ryou blinked. Once. Twice. And once more until responding.
"Um, I'm just fine. Thank you." Estella threw her head back and laughed a good laugh. She could not believe that her uncle used to be like this.
"Did she get that from you or Bakura?" Yugi whispered to Marik, cracking a smile.
"Is it bad to say a little bit of both?"
