1 Girl Days

1.1 Truth or Dare

A wild shrill echoed through the break of dawn. Birds scattered at the cry and frogs dived for cover under murky pond water. The entire foundation of the game shop rattled in fear of a certain spiked-haired girl.

"Nooooo! I'm forever cursed in this body!" Yami's hands flew to her head in dismay and anger. She growled at the sky behind the shop's ceiling, muttering a foreboding language. "One week is already up!!!"

The sound of phone rings intervened Yami's trail of curses. The game queen snatched the phone off its cradle, barking rudely, "Who is this and what do you want? The shop is closed right down so if you'll just pack up and get the h---"

"Yami?" Yugi's voice flowed into the room.

"Huh? Aibou?" Calamity forgotten for the moment, Yami blinked in surprise. "Aren't you in America?"

"Yes. And grandpa's here as well. We just called to let you know that we're coming home today."

"Really? What time?"

"In three…two…one…"

The doorbell sounded, causing Yami to jump three feet into the air and almost dropping the phone.

"We're hooommmme!" Yugi cried cheerfully in his usual benevolent tone. Sugoroku appeared behind him, placing the luggage on the threshold.

"Uh…welcome back." Yami was lost for words, but regained his composure immediately. "Did you enjoy your trip?"

"Yep! Grandpa showed me the White House, the Golden Gate Bridge…" Yugi listed a whole epic of settings, not caring if Yami was listening or not.

Yami grinned at Yugi's childish nature. The smile on the youngster's face always managed to cheer him up.

"Yami."

Yami turned at his name.

"Why aren't you a boy yet?" Sugoroku's brows arched in amusement as he sent a questioning gaze at Yami.

"I don't know. It's been one week, but I'm still a girl," Yami answered, feeling unadulterated anger running through him once more.

"Hmmm…that 'is' a problem." The wise sage rubbed his chin in thought. "Wait here and I'll make a quick call to the rangers of Jusenkyo Spring."

Yami stood by the living room entrance, slouched over slightly in anxiety. She truly did NOT want to remain a girl for the rest of her days, for in her case it would be for several millennia. Yugi stood by his Aibou, violet eyes glowing with concern. Yami's sorrow is his sorrow; he could feel it pounding away in his heart. Frightened at this unwelcoming sensation, Yugi tried his best to lighten the situation at hand.

"Don't worry, Yami," Yugi consoled, placing a hand on Yami's shoulder. "You'll be a boy soon, I promise."

"Thanks Aibou." Yami forced a smile and glanced warily towards the Sugoroku's back. "I hope you're right."

Minutes later, the elderly man returned from the living with an impassive expression fixed on his face.

"Is…something wrong?" Yami asked anxiously.

"Well, there's some good news and some bad news," Sugoroku turned towards Yami. "Which would you like to hear first?"

"The bad news," Yami mumbled. "At least the good news should lighten my mood."

"It seems that there's a slight problem at Jusenkyo Spring," the grandfather explained patiently. "The guide said that the magic fluid has been mixed with natural water, thus anyone who fell in the spring is to remain in their cursed form for a\month."

"An entire month?" Yami gawked.

"But…" Sugoroku continued, "the good news is that you'll be turned back to your original form in due time AND you can return to being male by pouring hot water over yourself."

"Really?" Yami smirked and flew into the kitchen, coming back with a teakettle. "Here goes nothing." The girl raised the appliance over her head as hot water splashed against her skin. She felt her body grow rapidly and her muscles tighten. Golden spikes electrocuted upwards as well as black and crimson. Yami felt her chest shrink and harden and her clothes slightly too tight. Now, Yami found himself in a masculine body…his rightful body.

"Yami, it worked!" Yugi cheered, embracing the game king in a friendly hug.

"Yes, it did." Yami flashed one of his rare smiles at his Aibou and grandfather.

"I'm going to call Joey and the others!"

Yami watched in amusement as Yugi raced into the living room for the phone and dialing Joey's number.

Before long, the minions gathered around the couch, congratulating Yami's temporarily return as a male.

"So you become a guy with hot water, and a girl with cold water?" Tristan asked in disbelief.

"Well, we're not sure about the cold water part yet." Yugi glanced at Yami, who nodded in agreement.

"I'll confirm it!" Without warning, Joey sprang up with a pitcher of frozen lemonade and poured the entire content over Yami's head.

"Holy---" Yami jumped at the immediate change of temperature. He felt his body morph once again into a feminine body.

"Yep. Cold water does the trick." Joey gave a lopsided smile, which soon disappeared when he soon Yami's face in a scowl. "Uh-oh."

"Joey Wheeler! You get back here!!!"

Everyone watched with sweatdrops suspended by the side of their heads as Joey ran like a there's no tomorrow with Yami in hot pursuit.

"Aaahhh!" Joey screamed. "Someone do something! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"Come back here!!!" Yami somehow managed to get hold of a butler's knife that was raised above her head. Joey couldn't even look at her directly in the face because her third eye was glowing with heat that could have challenged the sun.

Loyal to his friend, Yugi grabbed Yami's arm and held on stubbornly.

"Calm down, Yami!" Yugi ordered, struggling to keep his grip. "Joey didn't mean it!"

Yami's anger subsided slightly and she lowered her weapon. "Fine. BUT…"

Joey gulped as Yami flashed him an evil glance.

"If Joey ever do that again, he'll find himself in a world of pain."

The blonde laughed nervously as Tea ladled hot water over Yami, returning her back to a boy.

"Um…why don't we play a game?" Tristan suggested, trying to ease out the tension in the room.

"Ok. What kind of game?" This new subject seemed to have caught Yami's attention.

"How about Truth or Dare?" Tea piped up.

"What's that?" Yami's face clouded over in puzzlement.

Yugi was astonished by the fact that Yami, the king of game, didn't know what truth of dare was, but decided not to make a big fuss about it.

"It's when you chose 'Truth' or 'Dare'," Yugi explained. "If you choose 'Truth', then one of us asks you a question and you have to answer truthfully. If you don't, then you have to do a dare, which will be anyone we say. Of course, you can choose dare as well."

"Sounds easy enough," Yami smirked. "Let's play."

"I'll go first," Tea said. "Yami, truth or dare?"

"Dare." Yami was somewhat hesitant, but naturally concealed it with his confident expression.

"Ok…" Tea giggled. "It's your reputation you're putting at stake."

Now Yami knew he was in hot water, and this time it was a bad thing. Tea had suspected for some time that Yami had some feelings for Seto, and she wasn't hesitant to make a move that bring the two pawns together.

"I want you to go up to Seto as a girl and give his the most romantic kiss of his life!"

Everyone broke out in a fit of laughter except for Yami, whose face was turning several lovely shades of red.

"As a girl?" Yami gawked.

"Well of course." Tea snickered. "Unless you want to kiss him as a guy."

Now Yami's face could qualify for a ripe tomato.

"So? Are you going to do it, Yami?" Yugi was clenching his side from laughing too much and had tears streaming down his cheeks, as does Joey and Tristan.

"I never back down!" Yami stomped toward the front door and indignantly exited.

A bang was heard as the laughing ceased.

"Do you have the camera?" Yugi asked impishly.

"Yep!" Tea revealed a tiny camcorder from behind her back. "All set and ready to go!"

"Now it's time to have some fun," Yugi rubbed his hands together evilly as the group fell into a round of ghastly cackling.

Yami: AAAHHHH! I have to kiss Seto! On the mouth, too!

Yami: Psychology doesn't work on me
