Chibi Bakura's First December

Mystical Knight Dragon: Everything I said last time still applies in this chappie. If you didn't read the last chappie, I suggest that you go back and do so or you'll be very lost. I think. I don't know. Anyways, special thanks to the people who reviewed: Teenager Rika, Rosz of the Angel (and her siblings ^-^), and Shiroi Yuki!!!

I was in the middle of writing this chappie when I asked myself Why are they chibis? Then I realized that everyone else might be asking that. I cleared it up for myself, and now I get to tell you why. *a fire appears out of nowhere and I am suddenly dressed in long black robes* o_O;;;; (heh... sweatdrops look funny...) Anyways...it all started on the first chappie. I was writing the words as they sounded when the chibis spoke them, like laughing became waffing. I was getting /very/ confused, so I ditched that idea and just spelt everything how it is spelt.

Something else that I confused myself about: When they talk or it's their POV (point of view) they call each other their regular names. When they're just wandering around in aimless circles, they get a "Chibi" stamp stuck on them. That's an odd way to put it, but it works...kind of...

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! Or evil fuzzy bears. I don't know who does, but I know I don't.

Warnings: This story contains much yaoi. I won't list the pairings, because then I'll be stuck to that and my (cough, cough) creativity (Yeah right. Like I have any of that...) won't be able to show. Stupid teachers... Always telling me what I have and don't have, like human rights... Uh, yeah. I've done enough talking. Onto the story!



/December 15: Christmas and the Mall/

Chibi Bakura sifted awake and moved about under the covers. He yawned a bit and opened his eyes, and was greeted by a smiling Ryou.

"Did you get me anything for Christmas?" his hikari asked. There it was again: Christmas. The last time he had heard about that was right before they had hitch-hiked the Bill Molester.

"What /is/ Christmas?" Chibi Bakura asked.

Chibi Ryou sighed. His yami obviously hadn't bought him anything. "Christmas is when we celebrate the birth of Jesus. And then Santa Claus comes down the chimney and gives everyone presents. But we have to buy each other presents, too, so that the mall can also have a merry Christmas."

Chibi Bakura looked confused. "Is Santa Jesus?"

Chibi Ryou mentally slapped himself. Why did his yami have to be such an airhead? He tried to explain it again, but frustration (A/N: Who knows where he got that from...) overpowered calamity and he burst out: "Jesus has nothing to do with Santa!"

"Oh," Chibi Bakura stated simply. "So when is this Christmas thing anyways?"

"In ten days," the other mocked.

"So in ten days, some man comes down our chimney and gives us free gifts?"

"Close enough, but remember that you also have to buy every one else a gift. I already got you something, a chainsaw for Marik, Windex (A/N: I don't own Windex. I wish I did, though, because it smells good...) for Malik..." Ten minutes later Chibi Ryou still hadn't finished with his list of presents that he had bought.

Chibi Bakura looked dazed. "Do I have to buy that much stuff?" he asked.

"Yes," the lighter half said simply. Chibi Bakura groaned. He had a lot of shopping to do in only ten days. "If you want," started Chibi Ryou, "I could help you with your shopping. I still have to get stuff for Isis, Yugi, Téa, Joey- -"

"Ok, ok," Chibi Bakura yelled at him. "I get the point. Now, let's go before you go into another amazingly long list of stuff."

Finally the two warmly dressed chibis had made it out the door. A little ways down the road, they bumped into Chibi Yugi and Chibi Yami. The two darker halves bumped into each other so hard that they both fell backwards into the snow, making the lighter halves giggle.

"Be quiet, Ryou!" Chibi Bakura scolded. His mean face was so cold that all of the others began to laugh. "It's not funny!"

"Oh, lighten up," Chibi Yami said, struggling to get up. "Get in the Christmas spirit! Or," he paused to let the moment sink in, "does the former tomb robber not know what that is?"

"Of course I do!" Chibi Bakura spat at the former pharaoh. "It's when Jesus comes down the chimblee and gives us free gifts!"

There was a slight pause than a "Close enough," from Chibi Yami. The two chibis looked around for their hikaris and saw that they were about a hundred feet ahead. "Hey, Yugi!" Chibi Yami shouted. "Wait up!" The hikaris just laughed and ran towards the mall. The yamis sighed and jogged after them.

Soon enough, the four chibis had entered the mall. Every inch of space was coated with some sort of Christmas decoration: flying Santas, running reindeer, floating angels, lighted nativity scenes, beautiful trees on fires...

"Oh no!" groaned Chibi Ryou, looking at the trees. "Malik's /already/ burned the trees! He does that every year before I get to see them!"

Chibi Bakura was mad. Not only had Chibi Malik upset his hikari, but he had never even seen a tree up close with ornaments on it before, only the ones on T.V. He saw a flash of bleach-blonde hair flick by. "Malik!" he called at it. Chibi Bakura was so pissed at him that he could hardly yell. Chibi Malik turned around, grinned, and kept walking.

Chibi Bakura was going to go after him when his hikari spoke up: "It's alright, Bakura. We'll get our own tree this year and decorate it ourselves. That way Malik can't burn it down."

"That's a great idea, Ryou!" Chibi Yugi shrieked. "My grandpa and mommy always have extra ornaments that don't fit on our tree. You can borrow them if you want."

"Thanks Yugi!" Chibi Ryou grinned. "Now let's go buy presents!"

As they walked towards one of the many stores, Chibi Bakura growled over his shoulder, "I'll get you Malik. I won't forget what you did. Even though Ryou said it was alright, I know that's not what he's thinking." He was startled back to reality when something grabbed him from behind. He remembered that smell from somewhere... "Hello...Bill?" he asked timidly.

"I'm not Bill," said a voice from behind him.

"Oh. Sorry Marik." He felt himself being let go by the other chibi. "What do you want?"

"I just wanted to tell you that Ryou went into that store way back there."

"Oh. Thanks." Chibi Bakura turned to walk towards the store when he remembered something. "Marik, why do you smell like lilacs?" He turned to face the other yami only to find him lighting a tree on fire. Chibi Bakura mentally slapped himself. Why were they /both/ lighting trees? And why was Isis letting them? He shook his head and went to find his hikari.

An hour later Chibi Bakura was beginning to get bored. "Remind me why we're here again," he moaned.

Chibi Yugi was about to answer when Chibi Ryou interrupted: "Why don't we go see Santa?" They all agreed with this and another hour later found them standing in a line.

"Why are we standing around just to sit on some big fat guy's lap to tell him what we want when everyone else is going to get us that?" asked Chibi Bakura.

"Since when did you become an expert on Christmas?" asked Chibi Yami.

"Ever since I read everyone's minds," grinned Chibi Bakura. "Yours has some pretty interesting stuff in it, might I add."

The other three chibis turned white. They had forgotten that the tomb robber could read their minds. He must have, too, or he would've found out about Christmas that way a long time ago.

By that time they had reached Santa. Chibi Yugi jumped up on his lap and immediately burst into a long list of the stuff that he wanted. "I want a pony, a light bulb, some batteries, a beach ball plushy with blue and purple stripes, a new pair of socks, and a red rubber boot." He got down, and it was his yami's turn.

"I want a new chain for my puzzle, a foot warmer, a feather down blanket, and a leather chair made of plastic." Santa looked like he was about to fall asleep at this point. Chibi Yami got down, and Chibi Ryou got up.

"I want a puppy, a flippy kitty, a stick, a googly eye, a Dr. Seuss book (A/N: Do I own Dr. Seuss? No, and I'm glad I don't... *shudders at the thought of a crazy psycho wandering around her house*), and a dancing snowman that sings." Santa was beginning to snore as Chibi Ryou stumbled off his lap. This ticked Chibi Bakura off royally. He jumped onto Santa's lap and began to rattle off his Christmas list.

"I want a dozen knives, a Thousand Ways to Kill Others book, a 25 inch circular saw, and 50 feet of rope." Santa's eyes slid open as his mind began to process what Chibi Bakura was asking for. "And next time, listen to my hikari, or I'll kill you." Santa's eyes flew open the rest of the way as he watched the tomb robber slide off his lap and wander off to the different stores.

"Psycho..." Santa muttered as he started to fall back to sleep.

As the sky was getting darker, the chibis decided that it was time to go home. Santa was near the door, so Chibi Bakura yelled at him that he wanted a flame thrower. "Psycho..." Santa muttered again as he watched the chibis' retreating backs and went back to sleep.

While in the mall, Chibi Ryou had bought a Christmas tree that was six feet tall. This might not seem very big, but to someone who's just above two feet tall, it was huge. Not too far from the mall, the chibis decided that they would not be able to carry the tree /and/ the presents to Chibi Ryou's house, even with Chibi Yugi and Chibi Yami's help. Chibi Bakura knew that he was going to be the one that had to solve this problem, so he began to scan the parking lot for easy accessible trucks. His eyes rested on a red F250 (A/N: Do I own Ford? No I don't.) with the keys dangling in the ignition. "Idiots," he muttered as the four began walking towards the car.

Chibi Ryou must've guessed what his yami was thinking of doing. "You don't mean that we're going to /steal/ this person's car, do you?" he asked.

"Yeah," Chibi Bakura said monotonously as if stealing a car was an everyday thing that everyone did. "Now put all that junk in the back and hop in. We need to get going so we can get home before it becomes pitch-black out here. I can't drive very well in the dark." /I can't drive very well when it's not dark, either,/ he thought to himself. /But they don't need to know that./

In a matter of seconds, the four chibis had climbed into the truck and were speeding off to Chibi Ryou's house to set up the tree. "Santa's not going to bring you anything this year," Chibi Ryou told his yami while gripping his seat and closing his eyes after a close encounter with some cows.

"That's great," Chibi Bakura muttered as he gripped the steering wheel with both hands. "Now shut up and tell me how we get to your house."

Chibi Ryou looked around and saw a whole bunch of Amish people. "Uh, I have no idea where we are."

Chibi Bakura slammed on the brakes sending everyone flying into the windshield. "You what?!" he yelled.

Chibi Ryou looked his yami straight in the eyes and said slowly, "I have no idea where we are. You got us lost, and now you have to get us unlost."

Chibi Bakura was stunned into silence. Since when had his hikari gotten to be so brave? He was supposed to be shy and silent, not boss his yami around. The chibi spun the car around and began driving along random roads until they finally reached Ryou's house. "That was fun," he said sarcastically.

"Yeah," agreed Chibi Yami. "But you could've used your ring sooner to help us find our way home."

"Oh shut up," Chibi Bakura spat at him. "At least I got you here in one piece."

"Uh, guys?" ventured Chibi Yugi from outside the car. "Instead of fighting can you help me and Ryou carry stuff in?" Chibi Yami and Chibi Bakura glared at each other a bit longer before helping their hikaris bring in the packages.

Later that night, Chibis Yugi, Yami, Ryou, Bakura, Téa (_), Joey, Tristan, Mai, Seto, Mokuba, Isis, Malik, and Marik were crammed into Chibi Ryou's living room helping set up the Christmas tree. Chibi Bakura and Chibi Yami were not on speaking terms with each other, and would have long glaring fights every once in a while. To break up the tension, Chibi Ryou told his yami to go order pizza for their dinner. Chibi Bakura reluctantly went to the phone, growling at Chibi Yami the whole time he backed out of the room.

"Why can't you guys take a break and be peaceful for /one/ fricken day of the year?!" Chibi Ryou yelled at them, his patience finally cracked. "We all have to put up with Téa /every/ day of the year! She's ten times more annoying than both of you put together! So just /please/ don't fight until /after/ Christmas!!!" The whole room went quiet, making Chibi Ryou blush a bit; but the yamis were considerably more peaceful with each other after that., and Chibi Malik only tried to light the tree once.

Pretty soon the pizza had arrived, and all the chibis stampeded to the door. "Food!!!" they yelled when swung it open. They gasped when they saw who the delivery guy was. He was really fat and had about three hairs on his shiny head. (A/N: If you can guess who this guy is, I'll...um...give you complementary doughnuts...perhaps?)

"Oh, not you again!" moaned Chibi Marik, coming in from the kitchen looking for matches. He picked up his rod, but just before he was going to ram the dagger part of it through Mr. Homo's head, a giant Man Eater Bug had killed him. "That's not fair!" Chibi Marik yelled at Chibi Bakura. "I wanted to kill him!"

"But I didn't want tons of blood on my doorstep," Chibi Ryou told him. Chibi Marik looked stunned for a second, but continued his search for matches without a word.

"Psycho..." they muttered as they retreated back to the tree with the pizza. Once they finished that, they went out back to the pool for the annual cheesy bread throwing. (A/N: I don't own Dominoes. Wish I did, but I don't.) The poor neighbors... All they heard was, "You're free cheesy bread! *splash* You're free! Hey! You got me wet! You're free Bakura! *giant splash* You're free! *long strings of Egyptian cursing* you!"



Mystical Knight Dragon: That's all for now! If you can guess who the delivery guy is, you get free complimentary doughnuts and my invisible friend named Bob. I'm also going to need some present ideas for chappie 4. So please review!!!

Bob: *holding complementary doughnuts* I'm a free invisible friend!
