Yu-Gi-Oh Les Miserables! The Usagi's Version.
Usa: Welcome to my humble fic. Now relax, enjoy the show, and find a chair! Not in that order. Rex: Yer pathetic.. Usa: (glomps Rex) ^_^ On with the show!
ACT ONE: France's 'Noble Town', and the Rebellion
Slaves: (consisting of Rex, Weevil, Bones, Malik and Noah) (singing) Look down, look down, don't look 'em in the eye.(Rex smacks Weevil with a shovel) Look down, look down, you're here until you die.
Bones: The sun is strong, it's hot as Hell below.
The other 4: Look down, look down, there's 20 years to go.
Malik: I've done no wrong, sweet Jesus, hear my prayer!
Everyone else: Look down, look down, sweet Jesus doesn't care!
Rex: I know she'll wait, I know that she'll be true!
Everyone else: Look down, look down, they've all forgotten you!
Weevil: When I get free, you won't see me here for DUST!
Slaves: Look down, look down, don't look 'em in the eye.
Noah: How long, O Lord, before you let me die?
Kaiba: (dressed in black, with a black top hat. He is Javert, a policeman of a sort. Remember, this is old France.) (To his assistant, Yami) Bring me prisoner 24601, servant!
Yami: Yes master. (drags Yugi towards Kaiba. Yugi is wearing a slaves uniform, a grey and tattered shirt and pants.)
Kaiba: Prisoner 24601, your time is up and your parole has commenced. Do you know what that means?
Yugi: Yes. It means.I'm free?
Kaiba: No! It means you get to be on PAROLE. You will leave under close inspection. If you are to commit another crime, then-
Yugi: I come back here?
Kaiba: Right.
(Yugi takes off, running about the town of Digne. He approaches a monastery, where he asks the bishop there, Bakura, for a place to stay. He says yes and puts some bread in front of him.)
Bakura: Here, eat your fill. You are welcome here, sir.
Yugi: Thank you. (while Bakura is not looking, he steals two candlesticks and hides them in his coat.)
Bakura: You are so tired. You must stay the night.
Yugi: I couldn't.I'm a convict. I'm on parole. I should stay, but I just can't. (leaves)
(two police chiefs barge in, dragging him behind them. They're Bandit Keith and Zygor)
Keith: Your Holiness, we found this thief with two of the church candlesticks!
Zygor: He has sinned against the Lord! Surely you-
Bakura: Please, gentlemen! No need for trouble! I simply made a gift of this silver to him. He is poor and has nothing.
Zygor and Keith: (exchange odd glances and leave)
Yugi: Why did you save me?
Bakura: You just escaped prison, did you not? You should not go back again. You are a free man.
Yugi: (nods and leaves)
(Yugi runs to the city of Paris, where the poor are lined up on the streets, begging. Yugi has been made the Mayor after he sold the candlesticks and became a rich and well-loved citizen. He goes to a factory, where various women are working)
Yami Bakura: (dressed in the factory uniform, a tight white- and-navy dress that reaches the ankles and puffs out at the skirt) And what have we here, little innocent sister? (motions at Tristan) Come on Fantine, let's have all the news! (Tristan cautiously walks up to the teasing woman. He's stuck wearing a light blue dress similar in style, but a little more formal, with lace on the front and a silver locket. His hair is down, showing it's true length, down to the middle of his back)
Yami Malik: (same as Yami B) (teasing as well) Dear Fantine, you must send us more money, your child needs a doctor, there's no time to lose!
Tristan: Take that back! (starts fighting with them)
Yugi: (rushes in) What is this fighting all about? Would somone tear these three apart? This is a factory, not a circus! Come on ladies, settle down! I run a buisness of repute, I am the mayor of this town! I look to you to sort this out and be as patient as you can-
Joey: (foreman) now someone say how this BEGAN!
Y. Malik: At the end of the day, she's the one who began it! There's a kid that she's hiding in some little town! There's a man she has to pay, you can guess how she picks up the extra! You can bet she's earning her keep sleeping around! And the boss- wouldn't like it!
Tristan: Yes it's true, there's a child and the child is my daughter! But her father abandoned us, leaving us flat! Now she lives with an innkeeper man and his wife and I pay for the child, what's the matter with that?!
All the women: At the end of the day, she'll be nothing but trouble! When there's trouble for all then there's trouble for one! When the landlord calls the shots, she's the one with her hands in the butter, we must send this slut away or we're all gonna live in the gutter! There's gonna be hell to pay...at the end of the day!
Joey: I mighta known the bitch could bite, I mighta known the cat had claws, I may have guessed your little secret! Ah, yes, the virtuous Fantine.. Who keeps herself so pure and clean, you'd be the cause I had no doubt! Of any trouble hereabout, you play a virgin in the light, but need to urgin' in the night!
All: You must sack her now today!
Joey: Right my girl! On your way!
Tristan: (runs out of the factory, and walks to a nearby dock) (sighs and pulls out his locket, which in the story, was given to him by the husband)
He slept a summer by my side.. He filled my days with endless wonder.. He took my childhood in his stride.. But he was gone when autumn came.
I had a dream my life would be.. So different from this hell I'm living! So different now from what it seemed.. Now life has killed the dream I dreamed!
(puts the locket back on and walks to the Red Light District, where whores and thieves are through the streets)
Noah: (a prostitiute --;;) Come here my dear! Let's see this trinket you wear! (examines Tristan's locket) This baguatelle...
Tristan: Madame, I'll sell it to you!
Noah: I'll give you four!
Tristan: That wouldn't pay for the chain!
Noah: I'll give you five, you're far too eager to sell, it's up to you..
Tristan: It's all I have.
Noah: That's not my fault!
Tristan: Please make it ten!
Noah: No more than five, My dear we all must stay alive!
(Tristan hands over the locket for 5 Francs.)
Otogi: (approaches Tristan) What pretty hair, what pretty locks you've got there.. what luck you've got, it's worth a saunty, my dear! I'll take the lot!
Tristan: Don't touch me, leave me alone!
Otogi: Let's make a price. I'll give you all of ten francs. Just think of that.
Tristan: It pays a debt....
Otogi: Just think of that...
Tristan: What can I do? It pays a debt! Ten francs may save my poor Cosette!
(cuts off his hair just under the ears and takes ten francs)
Mako: Give me the dirt, who's that bit over there? (points to Tristan)
Otogi: A bit of skirt , she's the one sold her hair.
Noah: she's got a kid, sends her all that she can!
Mako: I might have known there is always some man.lovely lady, come along and join us, lovely lady...
(Tristan hesitates and shakes his head)
Noah: Come on, deary, why all the fuss? You're no grander than the rest of us! Life has dropped you at the bottom of the heap! Join your sisters...
Otogi: Make money in your sleep!
Noah: Come on, deary let him have the lot...
Otogi: (watches Mako hold his hand out) That's right, deary...show him what you've got..
(Tristan winces, then takes Mako's hand and walks away with him, his dress half-off, showing the underclothes and petticoat)
(Later, Yugi is walking around the RLD, and finds Tristan lying under the docks, his clothes thrown over him like a blanket)
Yugi: Haven't I met you before? Aren't you the girl I fired?
Tristan: Yes, I am.
Yugi: Why are you in a place like this?
Tristan: Cosette needs the money. There's nothing I can do now except sell myself..
(A/N: I'd be a regular customer!)
Yugi: I'm so sorry.
Tristan: It wasn't your fault.
Yugi: What you need is a doctor.come, I'll take you.
