Chapter 29

The Date, and Surprises!

"I wonder what Mai will have us doing today?" asked Joey, hands folded behind her head, as the group was in school, walking down the hall.

"Hmm, probably tell us more about the next upcoming top competition, The Spring Fairy!" replied Yugi, standing beside Joey, happily snacking on a piece of candy.

"I wonder if we will be able to pull a win off this time?" asked Malik, as Yugi shared some of her sweets with her.

"I have a feeling that this time around will be much more better harder than last time." said Ryo.

"Yea, with Lovely Peach, they seen to always have tricks up their sleeves." muttered Joey, as Yugi happily ate more of her sweet, when suddenly she was roughly shoved to the side, by a person who was walking through, not saying a word of a apology.

"Hey! You can at least say sorry!" Yelled an angry Joey, while Ryo help Yugi off the ground, as Malik stood beside Joey, glaring fiercely up at the tall black hair male, who return the glare back at them.

"Tch, do you have a problem Wheeler?" asked the deep rude voice, standing his guard as Joey began to get ready to defend herself, and her friends.

"Yea, Ushio! Why the hell did ya knock my friend to ground, without an apology!" yelled Joey, having hot anger burning in her eyes.

"Calm down pup! Your friend is not badly hurt, so why don't you, and your friends, make your to class, if you don't want a detention slip. Right boss?" Walking up beside Ushio was Keith, as Joey turned her angry over to him.

"Don't call my pup, ya bastard!" yelled Joey, as their was only on bastard who was allow to call her that, which for reason unknown to her, but when ever he use it, she felt a sense of affection in his voice that was directed at her.

"Muto should watch where she's going next time. She's so small, I almost mistaken her for a tiny kindergarten!" Mocked Ushio, as he and Keith laugh before taking their leave from the group, but right before leaving, Malik could have swore she caught Ushio take glimpse at Yugi, before continuing walking away.

"Let's go to class! Come on everyone, let's put this behind us!" Yugi dust off her skirt plastering a smile on her face, grabbing hold of both Malik, and Joey hands.

"Let put a smile on those faces, okay! Beside, I'm use to it!" Yugi reassured the two, putting the two, along with Ryo, in a better mood, as the four friends continue to make their way to class, talking about a different source of topic.


"Okay girls, as you all know the March top competition, Spring Fairy, will be coming up soon! So girls, will we have go in full battle gear for this competition, as your rivals Lovely Peach, will be stepping up their A game even more this time. Especially after the surprise tie you pull on them, at the Love Me Cafe competition." explained Mai, standing in front of the girls.

"If you guys want to win this time around, than you each of you will have to believe in each other like never before. Remember, to achieve a special effect of any kind, you have to feel the passion to win, and the love for Duel Idol in your heart, with everything you got! You got to feel the love of music, and dance! To become a true Duel Idol, you have find a goal that you wish to accomplish one day, that will help you become a better Duel Idol! You will never become a true Duel Idol, until you awaken your Idol Aura!" explained Mai.

"Idol Aura? What's that?" asked Yugi, tipping her head to the side cutely.

"When a Duel Idol's find a goal that they wish to accomplish, something which will help them become a better Duel Idol, they awaken a special type of aura, which seems to drawn the crowd attentions solely on them." Mai began to pace the ground.

"Mai-san, is their a reason why you are explaining Idol Aura to us?" asked Ryo, sensing a reason behind this certain subject.

"It's just a warning. If you all think you have saw Lovely Peach full potential, than I have feeling we have only saw the tip of the iceberg. They will show you guys, no mercy for this next upcoming competition. So be prepare." Mai warned, before ordering the girls to stretch, before taking a notice of how one of the members were missing.

"You guys, where is Malik-chan?" asked Mai, as their was only three girls presents in the room, instead of four.

"She had a major project to do, and told me to report todays practice to her." The one who spoke up was Ryo, who received confuse looks from Yugi and Joey, when Mai nodded her head to confirm, before looking away.

Once Mai wasn't looking, Yugi and Joey, tip-toe over to Ryo, and began to whisper over to her. "Something tells me, that Malik is not studying for a big project." whisper Joey.

"Why we were at school, Malik told me she had date to go on today!" Ryo whisper to the two.

"Date!?" Yugi and Joey, exclaim in a whisper, jumping back a bit, before Ryo put her finger to her lips, pulling them back closer.

"Kept quite! Malik does not won't Mai-san to find out, because she know how important this competition is, and don't want her to lose faith in her, beside I believe its with that guy from before. I think he's name is Marik, cause that what Bakura-kun called him." whispered Ryo.

"You mean to tell me, she is going on a date with a guy who is crazy, blindly, in love with her. I feel a bit worried with her, but since he seem to be on good term with Seto, he must not be that bad of a guy." replied Joey, feeling a bit worried for her friend.

"I can't believe Malik-chan is on a date. Hmm, if I remember, she does not seem to like him so well, meaning she must be doing this for a reason. Plus he seem like a nice guy, who really seem to love her. I really hope this go well for her. Malik-chan deserve someone special as well!" exclaim Yugi, still in a whispery voice.

"Yuge knows a good person from a glance, so lets get to practice. Ryo make sure to record practice so that Malik will gets it." Instructed Joey, as Ryo put her phone on record, placing it in her Duel Partner hands.

"Alright! Let practice began everyone!" exclaimed Yugi, as the group did just that, as Mai told the girls to line up, starting up practice.


"That idiot is a minute late! Where is he?" Standing in front of a small, but yet spacey coffee shop, checking the watch on her wrist was Malik, dress in a leopard print top that has two thin black straps over the shoulder, while the chest portion is two layers of ruffles. The upper being leopard print while the bottom being plain black to match the bottom. Around the center of the top is a thin white band, wearing a simple necklace with a small purple butterfly in the center.

A dark purple wrap skirt with a loose white belt that has golden studs and a gold bow shaped strap. Golden sandals with heels and multiple straps over the foot, with two gold anklets adorned with tiny gold studs.

Getting impatient, Malik began to fastly tap her foot against the ground when suddenly a expensive, silk, polish sport car pulled up next to her, as the door open, and stepping out of it was Marik, dressed ready for their date, getting around to open the door for Malik.

"Pretty-chan, our date will begin soon!" Marik exclaimed happily, ignoring the glare Malik was sending him.

"Your a minute late!" Malik pointed at her watch, before getting inside the cozy, comfortable car, as Marik soon got back in the driver seat, cracking up the car, before driving off.

"I'm glad to see your not wearing your Idol Device like I ask of you. My Pretty-chan, look ten time more prettier in her real form!" complimented Marik, missing the slight red blush that stain Malik cheeks, who turn her head towards the window.

After the thirty minute drive, the two soon made it to some type of large building, as looking out the window Malik notice a number of amount of famous people that she usually see on T.V, and confusedly turn her attention over to Marik.

"Marik, where are we?" Malik asked, only to see a smirk appeared on his face, as he step out of the vehicle, opening the door for her, helping her out the car, holding her hand, as a wide grin spread on his face.

"You'll see once we get inside! Knowing you, I believe you will love it!" exclaim Marik, confusing Malik, as two walked inside, the grand luxury, white marble polished building, with golden interior, filled with seats, as in between them, was a long sparkly gold runway.

"Wait! I seen this place on T.V. before, it the place where Egyptian Rose haas their famous Golden Runway Show! I can't believe that I'm here, I should had dress better!" Malik began to panic, when a warm place itself, around her waist pulling her close.

"You look beautiful tonight, so how about we take a seat, and enjoy the show." Suggested Marik, amuse with always making Malik blush, as she look even more cuter in his eyes, as the two took their seat, which were front row seats right by the runway.

Soon the fashion show started, as world wide famous idols, strutted the runway, wearing beautiful, dazzling, jewel outfits, as gold was displayed in each, and every last high design outfit, as at the moment Malik was looking a like a kid in a toy store, awestruck with every last outfit.

"Their so beautiful! This is why I love Egyptian Rose top designer!" exclaimed the chibi eyed Malik, eyes lit up like a Christmas tree, missing the smirk that appeared on Marik face.

"Is that so, than I might just put in a good word to him after the date." replied Marik, quickly drawing the attention of Malik, who whipped her head over at him.

"You know Egyptian Rose top designer!?" asked Malik, as Marik didn't answer, but had a sly grin on his face, as Malik pouted cutely, returning her attention back towards the fashion show.

"One day wish to walk on this stage." Murmur Malik, vowing to her self to one day walk on this stage, oblivious that Marik hear her vow, captivated with the determination expressed in Malik eyes, as the two were unaware that a pair of eyes were watching them.


"What a sweet way to treat me, I will honestly admit." Malik spoke truthful, seeing that the two were now seated in a high-class, expensive restaurant, seated in a private area, which was beautiful, with a crystal, gold interior chandelier, with gold interior chairs, as the seat cushion was deep red, as the room had had colorful Arabic feel to it, and gold interior lining the walls, and pillars.

"I'm so happy that I can please you, after all, a beautiful woman like you deserve nothing but the best." replied Marik, once again proud to see the beautiful egyptian goddess, who capture his heart, cheeks darken, as she shyly turn her head away from him, placing a piece of food in her mouth.

"Pretty-chan look so cute, when she's shy." Teased Marik, as Malik began to glare over at him, which did nothing but made her even more cuter in his eyes.

"Don't call me cute-" Malik was quickly cut off by a pieces of chocolate dessert place in her mouth, which was spoon feed to her by Marik, grinning due to his success.

"But you are cute, and also beautiful, and incredible sexy!" Complimented Marik, spoon feeding Malik another piece of dessert, right when she open her mouth again.

"So Pretty-chan is it true, that you really challenge the top diva, runway queen Vivian, to one day steal her stage?" asked Marik, who was now feeding himself.

"Of course, every since I was little, I was always glue to T.V. every time a fashion show came on. I use to always admire the pretty models, wearing beautiful, unique design clothes, as each style express each of their personalities, without having to speak, gracing the stage with grace, pride, and confidence. I want to be in that world, no matter what, but I don't want to be some no name, I want the entire world, no the universe to know who I am, I want to be someone who's name will go down in history!" Malik slammed her hand on the table, looking Marik straight in the face, who was listening to every word she said.

"But to be at the top, you must take down the person who is currently wearing the crowd, but even you must know their is someone, who holds a even higher title than Vivian." Marik turned serious, folded his legs. "In the world of models, there is someone who currently stands on top of them all, as people call her, Runway Goddess. She has been holding that title for a long time, and not eve Vivian is near close to taking that title away from her." Marik place a smirk on his face, looking Malik straight in the eye.

"So my Pretty-chan, do you think will take the title away from her? She is a powerful opponent, who shows no mercy when it comes to the runway. Do you think you stand a chance?" asked Marik, curious to hear Malik reply.

"I will take down anyone who's stand in my way, no matters how many time I will have to fall, only to get back up again." This was the simply, but yet powerful statement that came from Malik.

"That's the answer I wanted to hear, now let's go, I have one last event waiting for us, out on the rooftop of the building." Marik step from out of his seat, holding a hand out to help Malik up, which she cautiously took a hold of, due to curiosity about what was going to be on the rooftop.

Once the two made it to the top of of the building, Marik took out his phone making a phone call, as the phone was quickly answered. " Begin the show." He replied, hanging up the phone, once again confusing Malik even more, as she pointed her gaze out towards the night view of the city, when out of nowhere, bright colorful burst of lights, exploded throughout sky.

"F-F-Fireworks!?" exclaim Malik, as the show continue, looking up the fireworks lit up the night sky, with a burst of bright rainbow colors, as a certain egyptian beauty was awestruck from the wonderful display.

"It's so beautiful." Murmur Malik, mesmerized with the show, as Marik was proud to see that Malik enjoy the show he organized just for her.

Still awed by the display, a though was brought to Malik. "I. . .I wish to be a Idol, who will one day take the runway world by storm!" exclaimed Malik, catching the attention of Marik, seeing that Malik had all of a sudden, had a lavender color glow to her, shining brightly from her, with a smile that that seem to had took Marik breath away, as he grab her by the waist, facing her towards him, delivering a sweet passionate, hot savoring kiss, that Malik will never admit, she gladly enjoy, as the fireworks continue in the background.


Walking through the building of Egyptian was Marik, wearing a goofy happy smile, that will never leave his face, remembering the sweet kiss he shared with his pretty, pressing the button to the elevator, getting inside as it began to taking him to the top floor of the building, where it open, as he began to head towards his office, but opening the door, he saw a surprise visitor their already there waiting for him.

"Long time no see Marik-kins! Are you happy to see your old lover again." Setting their at his desk chair, was the one an only Vivian, wearing a sexy chinese, elegant dress, that had very long slits on the side, as she stood up straight, making her way around front.

"What are you doing here Vivian?" Marik suddenly felt his good mood, turned sour, due to the woman who was in his office. How on earth she got in, he had no clue.

"Maa, You don't look so happy to see me again, but you weren't saying anything the night we were very passionate with one another, my sweet Marik-kin." Vivian strutted her way over to him, placing a finger close to his lips.

"Leave Vivian. I thought I directly told you, that I never wanted to see you again, and no matter what you do or say, you will never become my brand representative!" replied Marik, removing her hand away from from him, as this sparked a bit of anger in Vivian eyes, before she covered it up, with a devious sweet smile.

"You know I saw you tonight at the runway show, with some unknown girl. Who was she? She certainly had no class, and not a sense of fashion, plus my gorgeous looks definitely surpass-"

"Vivian stop talking right now, because you are really getting on my nerves, and if you have one more bad thing to say about my pretty. . .," Marik roughly grab her by the chin, staring her directly in the face. "I might have to get rid of you." His voice got deeper, as every words he spoke was truthful and frighten, which somewhat scared Vivian a bit, cautiously taken a step back.

"It seem she really got you hook, but no matter what I will make you change your mind, and I will become Egyptian Rose, representative! Remember, whatever Vivian Wong want, she gets!" proclaimed Vivian, storming her way out of the building, as Marik sighed, taking a seat on his leather couch, sensing a dangerous storm up ahead.


Located somewhere, a private plane landed, as strutting their way off of it was a female of average height, with lighten bolt blonde bangs, and long spikes of hair that went down her back, with crimson red tip, as the person high heels touch the ground. Next, taking off her dark sunglasses, revealing deep, crimson red eyes. "I wonder how my precious son is doing?"
