Kay, this a fic written on a card game called bluff.
NOTE: If you want to be familiar while reading, please check how to play this and then read this for clarity or if you can understand my bloody language, you can straightaway read this.
I hope that some knew this game earlier. But anyways, those who all don't know this game, you can learn it here.
Here we go!
A huge lump teenagers were roaming around the dojo here and there. The navy blue-haired just didn't know what to do as he felt difficult to handle the huge group of guests.
"What's up Tyson? Why are you so restless today? All our friends have come so far to meet you! So why are you pissed off?" asked a brunette.
"I am restless on this hot sunny afternoon! What are you asking me to do then?" asked the navy-blue haired.
"Let's call everyone and play something."
"But I am hungry!"
"Tyson! Just now we have started to prepare snacks here! Mariam is baking a cake and Salima is preparing lemonades! She should keep stirring for countless number of times! Just wait for some time! And the lunch is being cooked! Control your grumbling tummy!"
"Hey Tyson! I have a very interesting game to play! What about cards?" asked a raven-haired Neko-Jin.
"Boring. Were you sarcastic Ray? Because we play that usually," replied the navy-haired.
"Hide and seek?" suggested a short red-head.
"Sounds kiddish."
"But your house is a big space," remarked the blonde.
"No! I want to do something else!" wailed the navy-haired.
"Okay, carom?" asked the raven-haired.
"As if I have more than twenty boards here!"
Keeping her hands on her hips, the brunette remarked, "Just call a few and play with them. Not everybody is willing to play carom here, so you need not worry about a hundred boards here."
"Guys… I am scared because a lizard is actually hiding behind!"
The four friends slapped their heads.
"You are indirectly telling us that you don't want to play carom, right?" mocked Ray.
"SERIOUSLY DUDE! I AM SCARED OF LIZARDS!"
"Okay, cool down Tyson!" calmed the blonde.
"Okay, does anybody know anything different in cards?" asked the navy blue-haired.
"Rummy, Ass…. What about bluff?" asked the raven-haired Neko-Jin.
"What's that Ray?" asked Tyson.
"It's a very interesting game. Each player gets a few cards. A random person can drop their card but they won't show the number or the face side of it. For an example, assume that Max is beginning the game. He will never reveal the number or the face side of the card. He'll place a random card. Say, he says that he is placing the card number 3. But, it need not be three or it can be three as well. But, we shouldn't be knowing that. Then, each person will keep adding cards and they can add as many cards as they wish at a time. Those cards necessarily need not be having the number three. It can be anything. And, when a random person says 'bluff', he or she needs to check the number or the face of the card, which is being placed above. If that card shows the number three, the person should take all the cards which were placed by each and every player. If… the card is not showing the number three, the owner of the card which is being placed above should take the bunch of cards. But, if a person drops three cards and among the three cards only one or two show the number three, the person has to take all the cards which were being dropped by the players in that round. So, entirely, a kinda cheating game, but a brilliant one though."
"But Ray, I wanted to ask you one thing. There are totally four cards for each and every number and faces, so the players will definitely find that….."
"I know that you'll ask this question, so we will play this game with two decks. That would do. You'll not be able figure out when we play the game with so many members."
Suddenly, they heard few people singing in his room.
"Hey! It's karaoke! Le'me sing some songs and come! Till then arrange members for the game!" exclaimed Tyson as he ran to his room.
Room:
"Yahoo!" exclaimed the navy-haired as he opened the door. He heard Bryan singing the song Baby.
You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever, and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never ever ever be apart
Are we an item? Girl, quit playing
We're just friends, what are you saying?
Said there's another and looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time
And I was like...
Baby, baby, baby oooh
Like baby, baby, baby nooo
Like baby, baby, baby oooh
I thought you'd always be mine (mine)
Baby, baby, baby oooh
Like baby, baby, baby nooo
Like baby, baby, baby oooh
I thought you'd always be mine (mine)
Quickly, the navy-blue haired grabbed the mike from him.
"It's my turn!"
"No!" exclaimed the singers.
Tyson quickly changed the music, and said, "Hello ladies and gentlemen! I am going to entertain you all with some spice and music! I am gonna rock!"
He started to sing
We've always been this to free all this pain
We've always been this to free all this pain
WOAAAHHHHH!
WOAHHHHHHH!
The others blocked their ears in annoyance.
"Is he shouting or singing?!" asked Emily.
"I don't know! But I am sure that we will die!" exclaimed Julia. All blocked their ears.
We are gonna buy, we are gonna buy
We will buy scarfs in England!
We are gonna buy, we are gonna buy
We will buy scarfs in England!
And I am gonna buy! I am gonna buy!
Gonna buy scarfs in England!
And I am gonna buy! I am gonna buy!
Gonna buy scarfs in England!

Want some fluffy pie!
Home security

"Man this sucks!" exclaimed Oliver.
"I know! What the hell song is he singing? I have never heard it!" exclaimed Julia.
"Who knows? Probably he created his own song! And he is going to diet? Oh man! Unbelievable!" exclaimed Emily sarcastically.
Hey hey Ninja sucker, ah exam exam flunker
Hey hey Ninja sucker, ah exam exam flunker
Hey hey Ninja sucker, ah exam exam flunker
Hey hey Ninja sucker, ah exam exam flunker
"What sucking line is that?" asked Emily.
"That too repeating it for four times!" exclaimed Oliver.
"Tyson! Players ready!" exclaimed Ray as he opened the door, then blocking his ears.
"What freaking song you're singing Tyson!"
The orange-haired switched the music, but the deaf navy-haired continued to sing.
All I want is a fandom!
The stars will greet the phantom!
Sky larks dodge the quantum!
"What the hell he is blabbering?" asked Ray.
"TYSON! STOP IT!" ordered the Spaniard.
The navy-blue haired opened his eyes and saw the raven-haired Neko-Jin.
"Tyson, the players are ready. Hilary has shuffled the cards and she is waiting for you. Um, anybody here wants to play bluff?" asked Ray.
"Me!" exclaimed Emily and Oliver.
"Oh, there are fourteen members! So, this is gonna be awesome! Come guys! The others are waiting for you!"
Dojo:
A group of ten teenagers were sitting in a circle. Then, Tyson went and sat in between Hilary and Kai as there was a space left.
"Tyson! We almost felt earthquakes here!"
The players (in order):
Hilary -8 cards
Tyson-8 cards
Kai-8 cards
Mariam-8 cards
Oliver-8 cards
Ray-8 cards
Mariah-8 cards
Kane-8 cards
Emily-7 cards
Tala-7 cards
Mystel-7 cards
Max-7 cards
Zeo-7 cards
Mathilda-7 cards
"Okay, I think it's a very big circle, so I need one person to help me with the cards. I'll distribute for Zeo, Mathilda, Max, Tyson, Kai and Mariam. One more person for the rest," said the brunette.
"I'll do, because I am the one who is exactly in the center," said Kane.
The brunette nodded and gave the second part of the shuffled deck to Kane.
After the cards were distributed, they were sharing strange looks.
"So who is gonna start?" asked Hilary.
No answer.
"Come on guys!" exclaimed Hilary.
"Can you start?" asked Tyson.
The brunette gulped and said, "That is…. That is….."
"Let me start!" exclaimed Mathilda, saving the brunette.
All of them looked at her. Partially hiding behind her cards on her hand, she gently took one card, not revealing the number of the card.
(From here, the story goes in a script mode for convenience)
Mathilda: (Taking the card and dropping) One four.
Hilary: One more.
Tyson: One more.
Kai: One more.
Mariam: Pass.
"What pass?" asked Tyson.
"Tyson, I told you that we can pass!" exclaimed Ray.
"Oh yeah," said the navy-haired, scratching his head as the female blunette knocked an eyebrow at him.
Oliver: Two more.
Ray: Three more.
Then, the male blunette interfered.
Kane: Bluff.
The blunette casually took the card at the top and the card didn't show the number four. The girls giggled.
Kane: Take this bunch Ray!
The raven-haired hit his head and took the bunch of cards.
Ray: Man! I should have been a bit alert! Anyways, I am the one who should start now. (Looking at the blunette sternly, he drops a card) One five.
Mariah: Three more.
Kane: Bluff.
Ray: What the hell man!
But this time the card which Mariah dropped was five. So, the blunette mildly pouted and took the four cards dropped by Ray and Mariah.
Kane: So, it's my turn now (Knocking an eyebrow at his cards, dropping eight cards) eight tens!
Oh, since there are only two decks, there can only be eight tens in all, but all the cards need not be ten! All became quiet. They all turned to Emily. Shivering, the orangette took a card from her deck.
Emily: O-O-O-One more (assuming that he didn't drop all the eight cards having ten).
Tala: Pass.
Mystel: One more.
Max: One more.
Zeo: Pass.
Mathilda: Pass.
Hilary: One more.
Tyson: Pass.
Kai: Pass.
Mariam: Two more.
Oliver: Pass.
Ray: (smirking evilly) Five more!
Mariah: Pass.
Kane: Bluff!
The blunette casually took the last card, knowing that it will not be eight, but shockingly, he found out that there were five cards having the number eight! The raven-haired giggled a bit, closing his mouth.
Kane: (Mind voice) Anyways, I have plans of my own.
Tyson: Salima! Please ask your boyfriend to stop bluffing nah!
Salima: (From kitchen) Guys, I told you all earlier that he is the real cheater here! It's impossible that he will stand last! And, more than that he is the one who will end up finishing first as well.
Kane: (Mind voice) I am glad that you understood me well sweetheart!
Kane: Anyways, my turn. Three Queens.
Tyson: Kane! Salima is your only Queen! Understand that. You are not going to have three queens in your life!
Kane: I know!
Emily: Pass.
Tala: (Blushing as he remembers his girlfriend Queen) One more.
Tyson: Aww Tala! I heard that you are in love with Queen, right?
Tala: Ahem! Tyson, stop it.
Queen passing by, waving her hand at Tala. He blushed as he beamed at her)
Tyson: Wow! So cool!
Tala: Hey, Mystel! Stop day dreaming! It's you!
Mystel: Oh, sorry. I pass.
Max: One more.
Zeo: One more.
Mathilda: One more.
Hilary: Three more.
Tyson: One more.
Kai: One more.
Mariam: Two more.
Oliver: Pass.
Ray: I pass.
Mariah: Pass.
Kane: (Smirking evilly) Five more!
Ray: Bluff!
Surprisingly, he found that neither of the five cards showed Queen. But, the blunette casually took the whole lump of cards dropped.
Kane: Ahem! Anyways, I am starting now.
Mathilda: We need to pity for the person who sitting right next to him.
The whole group turned to Emily, who was having a few cards with her, shivering a bit.
Kane: Huh, okay. (Dropping all the cards) Thirty nine jacks! (Author's calculations were right. The remaining number of cards he had was thirty nine till then)
By mistake, the Orangette places a card on the thirty nine cards, instead of bluffing, though knowing that there can't be thirty nine jacks.
Kane: Guys, game over. I am done! You all play! You can't blame me guys! Since Emily dropped a card after I did, you can't tell that I should replay. It can't be reversed.
The eyes of the players went wide!
Ray: You man?! I have never seen any player dropping all his cards! You have taken a lot of risks and at last, ended up finishing first?
Tyson: Man! Please go! It was brain wracking for us! Please go Kane! (Amusingly)
Salima: Guys, I hope that you all won't have any trouble now!
The blunette got up and left the place.
Ray: (Mind voice) Hnn! How did this guy finish it so quickly, just by taking the biggest risk of this game?
Tala: Pass.
Mystel: I pass.
Max: Pass.
Hilary: Bluff!
The brunette lifted the one card (dropped by Emily) which had jack.
Tyson: Wow! Take all the forty! (39 by Kane + 1 by Emily)
Hilary: What the hell! No! I had eight cards at the beginning, and now I have got forty cards! (Calculating the number of cards) GOD! I have forty three! All because of that Kane! Where did you go, you blunette! You stupid!
Kane: (From kitchen) Thanks for calling me a stupid! (Sarcastically)
Hilary: Urgh! You are a silent killer! Anyways, my turn. (Taking eight cards and dropping them) Eight Queens.
Tyson: (Gulping) Bluff…..
Taking all the cards
Tyson: What the bloody hell! All the cards here are….. You idiot Hilary.
Hilary: (Giggles) I can't do anything Tyson! Anyways, your turn!
Tyson: (Taking two cards) two threes.
Kai: Six more. Game over.
Tyson: Bluff!
Looking at the six cards, having the number six. All of them giggling.
Kai: Even I am done. I am leaving.
Tyson: Get away from here, for heaven's sake!
Kai leaves, without responding.
Tyson: Go and romance with Julia! You played safe throughout this game! Without taking any risks!
All of them laugh.
Hilary: So, only twelve are here. I see….
Tyson: Okay, it's my turn. (Gulping after looking at the cards being dropped) man! Except for Kai, none dropped threes! You all shall be doomed! (Taking eight cards) eight threes!
Ray: Bluff!
Checking the eight cards. All the eight show the number three.
Ray: What the bloody hell!
Tala: Language.
Ray: (Sulking and taking the eight cards and then dropping them). Eight threes.
Mariah: Pass.
Emily: Pass.
Tala: Pass.
Mystel: Pass.
Max: Pass.
Zeo: Pass.
Mathilda: Pass.
Hilary: Pass.
Tyson: Pass.
Mariam: Pass.
Ray: Okay guys, stop this. If nobody is willing to draw their cards, a fresh round will be started. So, any random person willing to start a new round?
Mariam: What about the eight cards which you dropped Ray?
Ray: We'll keep the aside.
Two hours later…..
Only Tyson, Hilary, Oliver, Ray, Tala, Zeo and Mathilda are playing. Others are done.
Ray: Still we all haven't finished the game! It's been two hours!
Mathilda: Ray, let's stop this game nah?
Ray: No! We aren't going to stop this!
Tyson: Yes! And I am not going to lose!
Hilary: Guys, let's check how many cards we all have.
Tyson: I have twenty.
Hilary: Fifteen.
Oliver: Five.
Ray: (sulking) Forty five.
Tyson and Hilary giggle.
Ray: Stop it!
Oliver: LMAO!
Tala: Five.
Mathilda: Two.
Zeo: Six.
Salima enters.
Salima: (Bringing seven glasses of lemonades) Guys! You all still didn't have your lunch! And these lemonades too!
Tyson: Wait sis! I am playing!
All of them shocked.
Ray: What?! Tyson is refusing food for the first time in his life?
Tyson: Ray! STOP IT! I AM ANNOYED! HMPH! (Crossing his arms)
Ray: Okay, just be cool!
Tyson: Anyways, I am starting now. (Taking two cards) Two Queens.
Hilary: One more.
Oliver: I pass.
Ray: Two more.
Tala: I bluff.
Tala lifts the two cards dropped by Ray. Only one card shows Queen.
Ray: Urgh!
Tyson: Congratulations Ray!
Ray: Shut up!
Tala: Language.
Ray: Anyways, it's me. (Taking two cards) Two Queens.
Tala: I pass.
Mathilda: Two more.
Ray: Bluff!
Mathilda giggles.
Ray: What the hell!? Oh no! I have fifty!
Tyson: CONGRATULATIONS RAY! Half-Century! (Sarcastically)
Ray: Tyson! Shut up!
Mathilda: Okay guys, I am done, so I am gonna have my lunch. Salima, can I have the lemonade?
Salima: Sure!
Salima and Mathilda exit together.
Tala: Language.
Ray: (Sulking) one three.
Tala: Two more.
Zeo: One more.
Hilary: Five more.
Zeo: Bluff!
Hilary bites her tongue. Zeo finds that all cards didn't show the number Three.
Hilary: Urgh! (Counting the number of cards) God! I am having twenty three!
Tyson and Ray giggle. Hilary hits their heads.
Hilary: Anyways, my turn. (Dropping two cards) two jacks.
Tyson: One more.
Ray: One more.
Oliver: I pass.
Tala: Three more.
Zeo: One more.
Hilary: Pass.
Tyson: Bluff.
Zeo: Take the cards!
Tyson: What the hell! Your cards shows Jack! (Counting the number of cards he has) LMAO! I have twenty-six!
Another two hours later….
Only Tyson, Hilary and Ray playing.
Hilary: Let's check how many cards we have.
Tyson: I have thirty cards.
Ray: I have eighty.
Tyson and Hilary giggle.
Hilary: Lol.
Ray: HILARY!
Hilary: I have eighteen. Anyways, it's my turn. (Taking eight cards) Eight Kings.
Ray: Pass.
Tyson: Pass.
Hilary: Okay, leave the eight cards. Let's start a fresh round.
An hour later…
The two boys looked at each other ferociously, as if they were standing for elections. They seemed to look at each other more ferocious than before in beybattles. They both were losing consciousness, though the languishment was just a numbness to them.
Hilary: Thank goodness! I am done!
Tyson: I have forty five. You?
Ray: Forty five.
Tyson: (mind voice) Kane, I am using your trick. I don't know whether I'll lose, but anyways I'll do this. (Speaking and gulping) Forty five Jacks.
Ray: Forty five more! I can't play this game anymore! Tyson! Let's end this here!
Tyson: Bluff! Take all the ninety cards! I am done!
Huh, the story was a bit stupid. I think this can be understood by people who are really into playing card games. But, now I am gonna ask a riddle. I didn't mention about who actually lost the game. So, who lost? It's a very simple question.
Okay, I'll deal with the calculations. When the game started, there were two decks used, I mean 106 cards. But, after the eight cards having number three where omitted, Tyson, Ray, Hilary, Tala, Zeo, Mathilda and Oliver played with ninety eight cards (Because after Ray dropped the eight cards, nobody were willing to proceed). The same happened when Tyson, Hilary and Ray were playing. Hilary dropped eight cards from ninety eight and it became 90. I clearly mentioned that Tyson and Ray were having forty five cards each.
Once some of my classmates and school seniors were playing this game, one of our school seniors did what Kane did in this fic. He dropped all his cards but a girl unconsciously placed a card instead of bluffing, knowing that there can't be so many cards having one number or a face card.
Anyways, I know that most of them aren't aware of the second song, but they are the misheard or the fan made lyrics of the title song of Death Note called, "What's up people!"
Anyways, please review! :D
