Chapter 3 – And So the Snow Shall Fall

"Hey Yug!!" Jounouchi called has he and Honda raced to catch up with Yami and Yuugi. Yuugi and Yami had just left the Game Shop and were heading to the park when they heard Jounouchi call to them.

"Hi guys!" Yuugi called back. They both stopped and waited until Jounouchi and Honda came running up to them. When they finally caught up with the two tri-haired boys, they were gasping for air.

"Have you seen Ryou and Bakura yet?" Honda asked after he had recovered.

"Nope, not yet. Have you seen Malik or Kaiba?" Yuugi replied. Yami was a bit shocked when he learned that Kaiba was coming that morning, but agreed to go anyway. (A/N: Amy: Mainly because Yuugi told him too!! Hehehe…)

"Yeah, we past Malik and his yami a while back. Malik said that Kaiba called him saying that he and Mokuba were already there. And, Anzu said that she had to visit her grandmother." At this, they all shared a wicked smile.

//Thank Ra!!! Anzu is gone!// Yami cried through his and Yuugi's link.

/I know what you mean!/ Yuugi replied. He was glad that they didn't have to face Anzu until after Christmas. Yami and him were going to have a wonderful holiday! Suddenly they heard a voice calling from down the street.

"Wait up you guys!!" Malik yelled. He and Ishtar were running at full speed trying to out run Ryou and Bakura. As they neared the group, they came to a halt, with Ishtar and Bakura in the lead.

"I won!" Ishtar and Bakura said at the same time. As soon as they declared their victory, they strutting around and bragging about how fast they could run.

"Well, I see that you let your hikari's get tired." Yami pointed out. Indeed, when Malik and Ryou jogged up, they were REALLY tired from the long run. Immediately, the two yami's were by their hikari's sides helping them walk and telling them that they did a good job running all that way without stopping.

//Gets them every time// Yami laughed mentally.

/Yeah. Thanks for telling them not to forget about Ryou and Malik. That was really nice/ Yuugi told Yami.

//Well, I couldn't just ignore them! That Tomb Robber no Baka should take better care of his aibou// Yami smirked as he said this. He knew Bakura loved Ryou very much, but he still had some of his old habits, like forgetting about his own light. Ishtar was the same, but they both loved their lights with all their hearts. It had taken them awhile to admit it, but they did it sooner than Yami and Yuugi, and for that, Yami was willing to respect them.

"Well, are we ready to go?" Yami asked. They all nodded in response.

"Then what are we waiting for? Lets go!"

As they arrived at the park, they saw Kaiba and Mokuba in the middle of a snowball fight. It seemed as though Kaiba was winning, but as the gang walked up, he turned his attention away from his little brother for one second, and that earned him a giant snowball in the face.

"Hey!! That wasn't fair! I was distracted!" Kaiba yelled at his sibling.

As Mokuba's reply, he threw and ever bigger snowball at Kaiba. Fortunately, Kaiba was prepared, and dodged the snow easily. But unfortunately, the rest of the gang was right behind Kaiba, so the flying snowball hit Jounouchi square in the face.

"What the-?!" Was all Jounouchi could say before the ball collided with his nose. Has he tried to recover, Bakura, Yami, Ishtar and Kaiba were getting ready for the next fight. Already they had made at least 12 snowballs, and were still making more. They decided to make teams, and the last team with the most snowballs taken from the other team's piles wins. The teams were Yami, Yuugi, Ishtar, and Malik, Jounouchi, Honda, Bakura, and Ryou. Kaiba and Mokuba decided they would stay out of this fight, since they were already tired from the last battle.

As the teams prepared to begin, I freezing wind crashed through the park. No one took it to notice, for the game had begun!

Amy: I know, I know, short. Well, blame my parents. They gave me a limited time on the computer. So, =P

Yami: Should you be doing that to your readers?

Amy: OMG!! NO NO NO!!! GOMEN NASAI!! *bow bow bow* I am sooooo sowwy!! Please don't hate me...;_;....*tear*

Amika: Yes, please feel sowwy for my poor aibou, she's had it rough for a few days now....
