Pool Party!

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, Jess, or Pop Flower. But I do own Cowgirl Bebop, oven mitts, and myself.

"Yamiiiiiiiiiii! Come on! The water's fine!"

"No."

In case you just clicked on this story and wondered what the random shouting was about, I'll fill you in.

Pop Flower convinced Seto Kaiba to have a pool party because it was at least 110 degrees outside and the pool was fine. So they invited Yami, Yugi, Ryou, Bakura, Anthy, Jess, Joey, and Malik over for a pool party. Everyone showed up and soon the pool was teeming with excitement. Anthy, Pop, and Jess were teasing the boys while they kept taking each other's girls and soon a violent splashing war would erupt. Everyone was in the pool, except Yami.

THAT stiff was sitting in a lawn chair reading his newest Cowgirl Bebop manga in his swim shorts and shades.

"Yami! Come on! Seto keeps stealing your girl!" Malik shouted, splashing Joey.

"Hnnn." Yami looked up, nodded and went back to his manga.

"You're a very caring person." Anthy shouted before Seto dunked her under.

She surfaced and sent a wall of water flying at the multi-billionaire. Pop shrieked as Ryou grabbed her by the waist and lost his balance. They both went tumbling into the pool and surfaced laughing.

Yami frowned and turned back to his manga.

Jess surfaced from Joey's dunking and called everyone in a circle. Yami looked at them suspiciously.

"Okay! Operation Swimming Stiff will now commence. You know your roles, get to it!" Jess shouted.

Yami looked at them suspiciously. Anthy's upper half leaned onto the concrete and tile lining the pool. Yami looked at her, trying to keep his eyes from bugging out.

'DAMN MY GRAPHIC IMAGINATION!' He thought.

"Yami! Come here!" She said.

"No."

"I've got something to tell ya."

"Can't you come and tell me?"

"No. Seto and Joey thought they were funny and---yeah."

"Oh."

"Yami! Here!" Ryou threw him oven mitts.

"What the hell?"

"Oven mitts, may be hot!"

"Um...thanks?"

Yami set down his manga and sunglasses and walked over to her. He kneeled down and she struck.

Anthy wrapped her arms around his waist and backflipped (her feet were resting on the wall below her.) into the water. Seto, Yugi, Jess, Pop, Joey and Malik jumped out of their hiding places and watched.

Yami surfaced, gasped and headed towards the ladder. Bakura met him as he was climbing up and shoved him back into the pool. He tried for the stairs. Ryou and Seto met him there and pushed him in as they went after him. Jess, Pop, Malik and Yugi were in the water soon as well.

*Later*

Anthy, Kaylynn and Jess were leaning over and unconscious Yami.

"Who knew the Pharaoh couldn't swim?"

"Is he alive?"

"Yeah, but we won't be once he wakes up."
