3rd P.O.V
"Dammit dammit dammit!" Joey was getting pissed, and poor Yugi was suffering for it. "Hurts." Immediately he calmed down, relaxing his frantic hand. For the past minute he's been wiping the blue water concoction off the poor girls face...only problem was, it wouldn't. Come. Off!
It was being stubborn, and his friend was probably going to have a red aching face once the thin gunk comes off. If it comes off. "Joe I don't think this is going to be coming off anytime soon."
Time was ticking, they had just made it to the halfway point of the play. Right now the audience was given a break while the second half of the cast got suited up.
However with this problem of a still 'cursed' princess Lissa, the students and teachers were starting to panic. They had five minutes, and that was a generous estimate.
"I don't understand why it's not coming off! We made sure the the water food color mix worked in rehearsal. Vivian you made it, didn't you add the same amount like usual?" All eyes both confused and angry were all on her.
With an innocent pout she scoffs at her classmates. Waving her hand about while crossing her arms. "Of course I did! I'm not stupid. I added the amount we agreed upon. It's not my fault you guys can't clean her properly." She was playing the innocent card.
But Tea, knowing Vivian as well as she did could see underneath the fake confusion and anger. She set Yugi up. Quickly Tea and Miss. Grace take a look at the mixture. Suddenly a strong smell hits their nostrils. It didn't smell right.
Making them slightly dizzy at first. Miss. Grace was not pleased. "Vivian...what did you put into this?" She refused to confirm everyone's harsh glares. Only walking away. Things were not over...not by a long shot.
Right now though they didn't have time to get into the matter. Sighing the female teacher grabbed Yugi. "Tea, you, me and Alexis head to the bathroom, we're going to see what we can do. Max-Mr. Pegasus, see if you can prolong things a bit." He bows, his silver hair flowing off his shoulder.
"But of course." He stands straight up, clapping his hands. "Ok children gather round! We're going to make some slight alterations to the script~" The girls paid no attention to whatever grand scheme the artistic man had.
Instead focusing on Yugi's face. "Tea I want you to put hot water on the washcloth, we'll see if we can get anymore of it off. Alexis I'll need your help to pick out makeup that we can apply to Yugi's natural skin color while I do her hair." The small maiden in question fidgets.
Apologizing to the girls with shameful eyes. "Yugi-sempai you did nothing wrong. Let's see what magic we can do~" Alexis hasn't spent all that much time with the upperclassman but Syrus and Jaden liked her, and what Vivian did was downright inexcusable! "Hold still Yugi-chan!"
On Stage...
"Ahhh welcome back one and all. I hope you all had a lovely break, however we unfortunately need a few more minutes to set up the next half of the play. Can't rush perfection after all~" A few chuckles rang about.
Pegasus certainly had a way to keep the people content. "Now since we're all here I'm curious to see who is currently in the lead with our little contest. Remember the prize is a lovely little basket." Once more he presents it to the audience.
Not only reminding those still there, but also alerting people who may've been just a tad late, fueling the three way rivalry fire of Grandpa Muto, Atem and Mokuba.
"As stated before there's a bunch of precious goodies but the main two are TWO-Hundred dollars in cash, as well as a one of a kind deck based on this play! So as a raise of hands who has fifteen monster names listed so far?" Their reaction was expected...and hilarious.
For currently three people had all fifteen. While the remaining majority had at most fourteen monsters. "What?! Fifteen?" Hushed conversations rang about, people were confused.
However all chitter chatter ceased when Pegasus clapped his hands again. "Now now no cheating! You all will have plenty of opportunities to continue with your lists. Especially since we've arrived at the halfway point!" A student ran on stage towards the flamboyant teacher.
He leaned down slightly, it had seemed Dr. Croweler had gotten everything set up. "Alright yes thank you." Clearing his throat the room goes silent again, any whispers ceased. "Again thank you all for your patience. I've just been informed that everything is all set and we can continue!"
Claps were all that were heard as Pegasus retreats backstage, running into Miss. Grace. "How'd it go?" She sighs, giving him a small smile. "We managed to get more of the blue stains off her and added some makeup to blend her skin. I also did her hair so it's purple as we talked about."
The group had timed things well. Originally Yugi wore a wig as she was the 'Dark Elf' and her hair was lathered with a washable coloring mixture Miss. Grace made herself, turning Yugi into a temporary blond. Making the 'transformation' seem more realistic.
On top of stunning the class as it was clear she looked even more like her cousin Mai. Now though with Yugi 'back to normal' Cecilia had to redo her hair once more, knowing the wig could risk slipping off during this part of the performance.
"Wonderful! Hopefully we won't have anymore issues. But to buy Miss. Muto some time we made a few alterations." Both watched with held breath as Ralley returns to his little seat with some help from Brier. The ginger cleared his throat into the mic, ready to narrate once more.
The brothers returned to their little home, however something wasn't right. Their dear sister, whom they had only been reunited with recently...has disappeared. "Lissa wouldn't have gone off somewhere alone!" They were concerned.
They had spread out searching the area. "Atticus check this out." The eldest of the magicians kneels down. "Good find Crow." There were footprints faded somewhat due to the elements. "Horses, dogs, pig, monsters as well." Bastion crosses his arms in thought.
Everyone was reaching the same conclusion. "They took her!" Currently though there was nothing they could do. They were in unknown territory, and it's past sunset. They just changed back into their humanoid monster forms.
They would have no chance of finding their sister in the dead of night. Syrus nervously shifts. "W-we should search i-n th-th-the morning!" Jaden and Jesse disagreed. "The sooner we look the better! We can't afford to waste time!" Valon placed a hand on both of their shoulders.
"But we can cover more ground during the day, in our dragon forms." Jack nodded. "He's right, even though we have our magic, none of it will help us find her. Our best shot is to shift at sunrise and split up."
Despite a few grumbles and worried thoughts shifting through their minds, no one else tried protesting. "Oh...I hope she's safe." Chazz snorts, walking past his brothers. "Of course she's fine! She knows how to take care of herself!"
Little did they know that not only was she safe, but was given the life of luxury. For the one that had stumbled and come across dear Lissa was the king of this land. The way they met each other was quite...unusual.
The curtains quickly closed. Signaling to everyone of yet another screen change. It was a brilliant backup plan. They decided to do a flashback scene, switching the motion of events. Ralley went to the page before in his papers.
Looking at the edited marks. "Alright Yugi you ready?" She nodded, breathing in and out, hope to get rid of the nervous jitters. "Yeah." Dimitry smiled a bit. "It'll be quick. You won't have to say too much." Croweler called out to the two. "Places boys and girls!"
Yami and his group went to the other side of the stage. "I love these costumes! Mai and the costume crew did awesome work~" Yusei watched with a raised eyebrow as Jaden flipped open his cloak, revealing the yellow interior.
It was incredible how much detail went into the outfits. To save time, they had a reversal costume, making the inside the color scheme and design of the cursed dragons. "Are you done?"
Just hours ago Lissa said goodbye to her brothers, wishing them luck on their hunting trip. The moment they were out of view she walked a bit down from her homey little cave. There she ran into a pink haired monster named Mana.
A species of fairy known as Little Fairies. She had for the past few years good friends with the eleven cursed brothers. She fluttered down on a thin tree. "I see you've all arrived safely~" This wasn't the first time Lissa and Mana met.
In fact it was only last night the two greeted each other. Not too far out to the seas was a chunk of rocky land that the family of twelve decided to rest from their trip. Mana had arrived after the brothers shortly went to sleep.
Meeting Lissa who had been watching over them. It was there Mana and her spoke, and of course the curse that had been effecting them for so many years. Naturally the kind princess desired to set them free. Surprisingly though the little fairy had quite the solution.
"I know exactly what to do. But it'll be very dangerous and risky. Failure could mean the lives of your family. Think about it long and hard and if you should choose to accept I'll tell you what you need to do." With that she flew away, leaving the elf monster to her own thoughts.
Now that time has come. "Mana...please tell me what I must do to set my brothers free of the spell." The fluttering monster smiled sadly, seeing the look of determination in the dear maidens eyes.
She sighed, knowing the girl would not be swayed. "Alright Lissa. Here's what you have to do, see these prickly painful bush of vines and nettle?" A moment after Lissa nodded Mana continued.
"These and the ones in the cemetery of the nearby kingdom are the only materials you can use. You'll gather them, crush them with your feet and smooth them into a fine thin thread. Make sense so far?" Once more she waited for the approval to keep going.
It was only going to be harder for Mana to spit out the process. "After that you'll use them to make eleven tunics, one for each boy using this thread. When you finish making them you throw it over them in their dragon forms. The moment the tunics touches their skin they'll return to normal...for good."
"Now there's a catch, from the moment you start this task until it's finished you are forbidden to speak. The first word you say will kill your brothers." Lissa's eyes widened in horror. She couldn't afford to make any mistakes. "So...what will you do Lissa?"
