Disclaimer: I own nothing. Don't sue me.
I'm sorry that it took so long to get this chapter out, but I still have to go to school each day *shudder*, and I have _way_ too much homework.
I have a special thanks for trio, lily22, ShaowKat, and Yami_kun for reviewing the first chapter!
Now we continue with our coverage of the Yu-Gi-Oh Taboo Tournament!
------------------------------
We are now watching the Yami Bakura and Ryou Bakura team face off against Jounouchi Katsuya and Mai Kujaku...
Bakura is staring at Mai as she carefully applies a third layer of lip gloss to her lips. Jounouchi stares as Ryou carefully ties on a pair of ballet shoes and twirls about the room. Mai is analytically processing the fact that Jounouchi is staring at Ryou, who in turn is concentrating on finishing a complete 360 degree turn three feet off the ground.
The match is advancing very slowly.
Jounouchi realizes that it is his turn to be the 'clue-giver'. Slowly reading the word on the card ('D..a..n..c..e'), he wonders how he can tell Mai exactly what it is. He has a sudden revelation.
"Look, Mai, at Ryou over there! What is he doing?" he cries.
Mai replies uncertainly. "Ryou is... dancing? Is the word dance? Yes?"
"Yes! Good job, Mai! That gives us our first point _ever_!"
Bakura glares at both Jounouchi and Mai, and reflects on not only the fact that this was their first point ever, but also that it was scored against _his_ invincible team. He then peers at Ryou, and realizes how thin that layer of invincibility had become.
Jounouchi continues with the words 'hill', 'question', 'earring', 'television', 'gizmo', and 'pants'. Mai correctly guesses on all of them, gaining six more points in addition to their first.
Bakura, watching as their three minutes runs to an end, swears silently to himself with every point gained. He also swears quite loudly at Ryou, who is now strapping on an apron in preparation for baking brownies.
"Finally!" he calls as the time runs out. "It is _my_ turn now!" Bakura rips the top card off of the deck, and gasps at what he sees. In his mind, he wonders 'How can I describe the word "horrible tomb-raiding maniac" without saying something about... myself?'
Ryou brings the brownies to Bakura as he prepares to frost the cupcakes. He notices that it is his turn to guess the word, and, straightening his apron, listens intently to what Bakura is saying.
"Um, yeah, so this word is like.. me."
"Do you mean 'albino', Bakura?" Ryou asks.
"No. Do you remember what I told you about my.. past life?"
Ryou carefully thinks about Bakura's past life.
"Nope, 'fraid not, Yami."
Bakura is turning red. "I did something ..bad.. which made the pharaohs of Egypt hate me."
"Did you play golf?"
Bakura tries once more. "I would search for ..treasure.. in the graves of Egyptian pharaohs."
Ryou blinks. Then... "Oh.. I get it! You were a- "
Mai takes a quick look at the timer and realizes that their time is up. She whispers this to Jounouchi.
"Bakura, your turn is over!" he squawks. "And that means.. we win?"
"A horrible tomb-raiding maniac! I was a HORRIBLE TOMB-RAIDING MANIAC!" Bakura shouts.
Mai is jumping up and down with joy. "Yes!"
Bakura growls. "No!" he exclaims. "We lost, to you? Not possible!" And he storms out of the room.
Ryou, meanwhile, has removed his apron and is holding a plate out to Jounouchi. "Cookies, anyone?"

Whew.. that took a while. Once again, I'm sorry about the wait. Please R & R!
