Ocean of Secrets 2: All I want for christmas is you
One thing that bugs me on chapter 6 when Marik responses to Malik "Do I look fine" Marik asked scarcely. The world scarcely was supposed to be sarcastic. Now that that's dealt with enjoy the newest chapter.
The sloth
"Now that's a big bathtub" Jounouchi said as he stared at what he thought was a big bathtub. Seto started to laugh at Jounouchi's comment.
"That's not a bathtub. It's an pool" Seto corrected him. Seto started to walk away from the doorway that connected to the living room. The room had tile walls and floor. Around the big pool had some deckchairs and some tables. In the corners stood big palm trees. A slide where you could slide down to the water and an door to the backside of the Kaiba mansion.
"When did you get all this?" Jounouchi asked as he gazed trough the room.
"It was before the summer break. Mokuba practically begd me to get an pool here." Seto answerd before he stopped by the edge of the pool. "Are you ready to take an swim?" Seto asked the blond in his arms.
Nodding his head rapidly Jounouchi answerd "I sure am"
Seto started to lower Jounouchi down in the water carefully that he wouldn't hurt himself. When Jounouchi got down to the water he directly dowe under it and swam some lengths. Seto watched as Jounouchi swam back and forward. Pulling his shoes of, his socks and folding his pants up to his knees he sat down on the edge and bathed his feet on it. Feeling the lukewarm water on his skin he closed his eyes and relaxed.
Jounouchi saw when Seto closed his eyes and thought how cute he was but not too cute so that he wouldn't play an prank on him. Swimming silently closer and closer towards Seto so that he wouldn't notice him. When he got just below Seto's feet he took an good grip on them pulling him down under the water with an
*SPLASH*
Seto felt when he was pulled down in the water. He quickly swam up to the surface and started to cough water.
"What was that for?!" Seto said to Jounouchi who was swimming only two meters away from him.
"I don't know what you are talking about" Jounouchi spoke in an innocent tone.
"You don't" Seto said as he studied what Jounouchi would do next.
Giving the brunette an smile Jounouchi responded "Don't"
Seto smirked at the response and Jounouchi knew that Seto was planing on something but what. He couldn't put an finger on it. Seto started to swim towards Jounouchi and Jounouchi started to swim away from Seto but who knew that the CEO of the Kaiba corporation could swim that fast. Getting an good grip on Jounouchi wrist Seto pulled him his embrace and smiled "I got you" Seto purred. Jounouchi smiled back at the human "Yes you did" Seto leaned closer and closer towards Jounouchi with only an centimeter for their lips to meet he whisperd to Jounouchi "I love you Jou"
"I love you too Seto" Jounouchi purred back. As Seto was about to kiss his merman a voice interrupted them
"Seto where are you?" There was only two persons that he knew that called him by his first name Jounouchi and his little brother. Pulling himself away from Jounouchi's body he swam to the edge of the pool and pulled himself out of it and stood up.
"In here Mokuba" Seto yelled back.
A raven haired boy walked inside the room where Seto and Jounouchi was in "Seto I ha-" Mokuba started but stopped when he saw Seto dripping wet "Seto why are you dripping wet?" Mokuba asked as he stared at his brother.
Seto grabbed an towl on a near by deckchair and started to dry himself "A certain person thought it would be fun if he pulled me in the water when I was unaware" Seto turned his gaze towards Jounouchi who was hanging on the edge of the pool with his hands and his head resting on it. Giving a slight blush on his cheeks he tried to look inosent.
Mokuba who stood by the door stared at Jounouchi and sighed. Then remembering what he came for when he saw Jounouchi.
"Seto you got to see this" Mokuba said as he took an remote controler on a table and a screen started to sink down from the roof. Turning their looks on the screen as a man enterd the screen. Seto stared at the screen and listen.
"Good evening I'm Geffrey Bolt. Today early in the morning at 3 in the morning at the Ocean Lab only an hour away from Domino city an building exploded by mysterious reasons. No one was killed but many people was injured. When they searched for clues on the security cameras they found them damaged and wasn't able to film what could have happend-"
Seto turned his gaze towards Mokuba and then back at the talking man in the screen news.
"- The search patrul went trough the entire area to find some clues but found nothing. And when they entered building 3 they found one tank empty. Their newest creature was mysterious disappeared" The man in the screen made an pause before he continued.
"The researchers won't tell us what kind of creature disappeared. The only thing they told us was that it is impossible for it to get away from there on it's own. They believe that it got some help either from the employees or someone from the outside. More reports will come at 23:35. I'm Geffrey Bolt with the news and here comes the weather-" Mokuba shut the TV and turned his gaze towards Seto
"What will we do?" he asked
Seto stared at Jounouchi and then back at Mokuba "Nothing they don't know and even have clues that it was us that did it." Seto said
Mokuba walked in front of Seto "But what if-" Mokuba started but became silent when Seto lifted his hand.
"We'll deal with it then. For now let's forgett all this and move on with our lives"
"Can't you watch where you are going tomb robber?!" Jounouchi, Seto and Mokuba turned their heads towards the door and saw Yugi, Ryou, Malik, Marik, Yami and Bakura at the top lying on the floor in a pile.
"Well 'someone' just stopped suddendly so I didn't have time to react. Didn't they teach you anything in the palace or were you to busy scratching your sorry ass for an excuse?" Bakura snapped back at Yami.
"I thought that tomb robbers had good reflexes but when it comes to you the Gods made an mistake with you. Apparently you have the reflexes of an sloth" Yami retorted.
That was the last dropp Bakura snapped "OH YEAH!. WELL I THINK-"
"STOP IT ALREADY" Marik, Malik, Ryou and Yugi said at the same time back at the ex tomb robber. Bakura growld under his breath and jumped off the pile of humans. Everybody who was under Bakura got up.
Seto stood at the same place and thought why the gods punished him, if he would have believed in gods and stuff like that.
"What is it now?" Seto asked in an annoyed voice.
The newly arrived group stared at each other tills Ryou was the one to speak out "We heard the news just now and we-" Ryou was interrupted by Seto "Don't tell me that you got frightened by that" Seto said back "They don't have any proof that it was us or anything else"
"See, I told you there was no worry" Bakura spoke out.
Ryou who stood behind Bakura shook his head in disbelief.
Deciding that it would be bettor to get some work done. Seto left the room leaving an note to Mokuba "Watch that they don't do any stupid stuff while I'm gone."
"Yes big brother" Mokuba said back.
"Where did Kaiba go?" Yugi asked Mokuba
Mokuba sighed "Work. What else?"
Staring at the door where Seto just left Bakura had an different plan. A plan to get revenge on the pharaoh. This couldn't fail he even had Marik by his side. Whispering in Marik's ear Bakura told the plan "When the baka pharaoh stands by the pool we'll push him in it. Genius isn't it?"
Getting an grin on his face Marik said back "It sure is"
Yugi, Mokuba, Ryou, Yami and Malik talked to Jounouchi. Yami decided to take an walk around the room. Unknown to the danger that Marik and Bakura was planing he keept on walking. Stopping only right behind Malik and Ryou he stopped and stared at the water.
Bakura knew that this was it. Now's the time "Ready. Set. Go!" Bakura said and ran towards Yami with Marik right next to him.
Yami heard when the two yamis was running towards him and when they only was a meter away Yami took one step to the left and now Malik and Ryou was in the way. Not beeing able to stop the two yamis ran right at them and they all four fell in the water with an
*SPLASH*
Yugi, Mookuba and Jounouchi turned their gaze towards the splash right next to them. Jounouchi dowe under water and pulled Malik and Ryou up to the surface. They both started to cough water and then Marik and Bakura came to the surface also but they wern't happy about when Yami didged their attack.
"You really are an sloth Bakura" Yami smirked towards them. Bakura who had thought that this plan wouldn't fail got even more annoyed at the ex pharaoh.
"I'll get you next time. You'll better sleep with one eye open from now on" Bakura threatened him.
"Marik Bakura what was that for. Pushing us in the water?!" Marik and Bakura turned their faces slowly at their angry hikaris.
"Well?" Ryou said as he stared at Bakura and Marik
Marik and Bakura took the risk of running or swimming away from their angry hikaris. When they got out from the pool they ran towards a door and out. Yami who had seen them taking the wrong door ran towards it and locked it so that they couldn't get back in.
"I hope they like the cold night air" Yami smirked.
"Won't they catch an cold when they are out there?" Mokuba asked as he blinked.
Yami nodded "I hope they will learn their lesson now. Don't mess with the pharaoh or there will be consequences"
"Like they will learn" Malik said.
Jounouchi pulled Malik and Ryou to the edge of the pool so that they could get out of it and get dry.
"Are you two okay?" Yugi asked as he reached an offering hand to Malik and Ryou.
"I'm fine but Bakura won't be" Ryou said as Yugi pulled him out.
"I'm good" Malik said as he was on the dry land. Mokuba offered the both teens an towel to get them warmer.
"Thank you Jounouchi" Ryou gave Jounouchi an warm smile.
"It was nothing" Jounouchi said back and laughed a little.
Yami who had watched trough the door window for signs of Bakura an Marik didn't find any it was too dark to see an thing.
"I guess they went home" Yami said to the group
"Probably" Ryou said. "I think I better should go home"
"I'll go too. I'll go get my jacket. See ya" Malik said as he and Ryou walked out of the room leaving Yami, Yugi, Mokuba and Jounouchi alone.
Jounouchi who had thought this for a while asked the remaining group "How did they get together?"
Yugi started to think before he answered "Wasn't it when we had that Halloween party at our place for over two years ago Yami"
Yami who got an not so happy face answerd "2 years and 9 month to be exact"
"What's with the unpleased face Yami?" Jounouchi asked as Yugi started to giggle.
"Their stupid game of theirs, thats why. We were playing a game called spirit in the glass. I ended up with and spell that they put on me" Yami said with an small angry tone (*)
"What kind of spell?" Mokuba asked.
Not really wanted to tell them Yami told it anyway "Clumsy spell"
"But you were so cute. Especially when you bumped at the sofa and then you fell right on op of me" Yugi said
"Yeah sorry about that" Yami said with an grin.
Not really sure where this conversation would go Jounouchi decided to change it "How long have you known Mokuba and Se-Kaiba"
"Too long" Yami said back.
"A long time" Yugi said
"Well I'm glad that I met you" Mokuba said and they all started to laugh.
'I hope that we all will be friends for as long time as they have been. But I still miss my little sister and of course Honda and Otogi. I need too see them. How will I tell Seto about it and how will he react?'

Had to put some cute and funny moments in this chapter. The previous ones have been mostly sorrow.
(*) It's an real game here in Sweden. I'm not really sure what the game is called in English. I think it's called Ouija board game.
I'm back from the contest in Stockholm. We didn't win but we had lots and lots of fun there.
And thank you for those lovely reviews.
