Chapter 4: Bubble Guns and Police Cars
Bill & Yami continued to look at her. Ann blinked; she had no idea what to do. Bill suddenly smiled; he got up, fished around in his pocket, and took out a small cell phone. Ann blinked in confusion.
"Where did you get that?"
Bill looked at her and said slowly.
"I…borrowed it…" Ann got up slowly as Bill started punching numbers in. Yami took of the snow hat, his hair a little bit messed up. They all leaned close together to hear the other line start ringing.
"Hello? Who is this and how did you get this number?!?!" It was Kaiba. Ann looked at Bill like she could have straggled him. Bill ignored her and spoke into the phone.
"Hey this is Bill…" Suddenly Bill took the phone way from his ear and held it out as far as his arm would go. There were loud shouts.
"YOU THEF! YOU TOOK MY CELEPHONE! WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU I'LL…"
Bill brought the phone back when the shouting stopped and spoke into it carefully now very white in the face.
"Well… you can kill me later we have a HUGE problem…" Bill explained about school and Pegasus.
"-and we need a ride back to Ann's house…" The phone was silent for a couple of seconds.
"Hmmm…okay I'll- Hey I wanted coco puffs NOT corn puffs! – pick the three of you up." Ann blinked; she grabbed the phone away from Bill.
"Where are you?!?!"
"Where in the market place, SOMEONE ate all the food in your house." Ann's face went red.
"Put Marie and the phone…NOW!" The line was silent for a couple of seconds.
" Hello?"
"Marie! Is it true Joey and Tristan ATE all the food in the house?!?!"
"…Yes…" Ann stomped her foot.
"I'll KILL them when we get there… Tell Kaiba to pick us up at the church parking lot; he'll explain." Ann turned to phone off and threw it back to Bill. Bill blinked and caught it. Both boys looked at her.
"We have to get to the church parking lot Kaiba will pick us up there…" They all stood up and started running through the woods quickly, Ann leading. They could not take the road because they would be seen and taken back to school. She suddenly saw a fence ahead; she stopped and looked at it. It was the first house next to the cemetery. There were at least 10 houses until the church. Ann thought for a moment, they could run through maybe six back yards and then take the street. She nodded at her thought and jumped up on the face of the fence. She climbed over nimbly; she landed, and shouted through the fence.
"Hey guys! Climb over the fence we have to take a few back yards and then the road!"
There was a period of silence. Then Ann heard the scrapping of feet and Bill flopped over the fence. Then Yami appeared on the fence and landed next to Ann. They crept through the yard silently and jumped over the next fence. It was like that for all the houses except the last one. The last one had a dog and well… let's just say it didn't go as smoothly as thought. Ann climbed over the last fence onto the sidewalk; Yami followed just as nimbly as all the other times. Bill climbed over and didn't land very well but he didn't fall. He looked at Ann.
" The dog BIT me! HE BIT ME!" Bill held up his sleeve showing Ann ripping marks. Ann almost laughed.
" It was a small dog Bill…" Bill glared at Ann. Ann laughed and started to cross the street. Bill shrugged at Yami who had an odd look on his face and followed her. They stood in the middle of the deserted parking lot, waiting. Bill looked at his watch and Yami waited silently. Ann still felt extremely odd being out of school so early and Yami with them. She started walking in circles, biting her lip. Yami only watched her pace and Bill looked like he wanted her to stop. Bill finally annoyed said something.
"Ann knock it off! And where the hell is Kaiba!?"
Suddenly there was a great roaring down the street. Ann stopped and looked in that direction. Bill and Yami also looked in the direction of the sound, not as surprised as Ann mind you. A green van came speeding down the street; Ann looked at it in surprise and stated.
" What idiot would drive so fast?"
The green automobile swerved to the side in a jerky movement and pulled in the parking lot. The van turned and faced them; the driver door in front of Ann. The widow rolled down and Kaiba's head poked out. Ann looked at Kaiba kind of surprised. Bill laughed and climbed in the vehicle. Yami followed him. Ann finally believing she was nuts got in the van as well.
There was no one else in the van besides her, Bill, Kaiba, and Yami. Bill was in the front seat next to Kaiba in the driver seat. Yami was behind Kaiba, and Ann sat behind Bill. She looked at the interior of the van, her face went white. Ann leaned forward and looked at Kaiba.
" This isn't my parents car…is it?" Kaiba didn't look at her; he nodded and rolled up the window. Ann then leaned back with a horrified look on her face. Bill turned back and looked at Ann; he made a signal to buckle her seat belt, now. Ann buckled her seat belt quickly; Yami looked at Bill in confusion. She took his seat belt and buckled it; she jerked her eyes at Kaiba. Yami then looked extremely confused. Bill then turned around and held onto the seat. Ann leaned back and did the same. Kaiba looked at them all, when everyone was settled he hit the gas. The van jerked forward at deadly speed; after about a few seconds Kaiba swung the wheel suddenly. Ann crashed into her door and Yami crashed into her. Ann heard Bill yelp; she looked at Kaiba who wasn't swinging about at all which was beyond her. It was like that for about 10 minutes until Kaiba hit the brakes and everyone jerked forward. Ann looked out the window; they were in the market parking lot. Kaiba kicked the door open, and started walking in the direction of the market. Ann & Bill opened their doors quickly and followed him; Yami opened his door and walked slowly following them. Bill Ann and Yami caught up with Kaiba, the market doors swung open. They were suddenly meet by Yugi, Tea, Marie, Joey, & Tristin. They were running out of the store quickly each holding 2 bags; 3 store clerks were chasing them. The store clerks where shouting something impossible to make out, behind them was the store in ruins. Every row was knocked over, things sprawled over the entire floor, and it looked like a tornado hit the place. Ann saw Marie waving her arms around; telling her to run back to the van. Ann suddenly took Bill by the sleeve, which was also in total awe, and started running back to the van as fast as her legs would allow. She suddenly noticed Marie at her side; Ann shouted to her.
" What the hell is going on?!?!?"
" Joey- accidentally-knocked over- a row- while chasing- Tristin- for stealing-one of- his bubble guns." Marie gasped. Ann rolled her eyes and stopped in front of the van. Things could not be worse. She ran to the back and opened the back doors; Marie came around and threw her bags in the back and ran to the nearest door and flung it open all very quickly. She climbed into the last row of seats and sat down and buckled up. Yugi and the rest of the group came about 5 seconds after each throwing bags in except Yugi who gave Ann his. Ann blinked and looked at the bag then to the van; she then threw it in with the other 9 bags. She was the last person to jump in the van. Kaiba then hit the gas like before and they zoomed out of the parking lot like no tomorrow. All of them were jerked around again. She ended up sitting next to Yugi this time. The rows went something like this, from back to front. Marie, Tea, Joey, Yami, Yugi, Ann, Kaiba, and Bill; with Tea & Yugi sitting in the middle of their row. Marie suddenly annoyed yelled.
" KAIBA SLOW DOWN OR WERE GOING TO GET-," Suddenly there was loud roaring in the air, the police.
"- Arrested." Marie finished slowly. Ann looked out her window in horror, flashing red and blue lights close behind them. She turned back and look at Kaiba like she could have straggled him. Bill, to her surprise, swung around and looked Marie and asked.
" Should we pull over?" Marie blinked then shouted back to him.
"How the hell should I know?" Bill blinked. He suddenly opened his mouth and started giving orders, which was a surprise coming from him. He never really ordered anyone to do anything, but now he was shouting orders like a general.
"You guys, take out Joey's bubble guns and start shooting bubbles out the window, Kaiba, floor it!" Kaiba looked at Bill like he could have killed him; Bill edged back in his seat really to get straggled. Then what happened next surprise Ann and she would think later that he had acted out of character; Kaiba smiled at Bill and answered.
" For the first time Bill, you have said something intelligent." She stomped his foot on the gas petal. Ann looked back at Marie was fishing through some of the bags pulling out 6 bubble guns. She handed one to them except Bill and Kaiba, Marie rolled down her window, pulled the trigger to the toy gun, and bubbles started pouring out. Everyone mimicked her and put their guns out the window, each gun producing hundreds of small bubbles. Ann caught a glimpse out the window; the police cars started backing away quickly bubble clouding their vision. Ann smiled and looked back at Bill, Bill looked back to Kaiba.
" Lets lose them!" Kaiba grinned wider and started taking wild turns. Everyone in the back tried keeping their balance and continue shooting out the window to keep them away. It was like that for what seemed like ages, until Kaiba finally lost them. Ann sighed in relief. She knew they were in a lot of trouble but she couldn't help it. Bill grinned back at her.
" Bill you are a genius!" Bill smiled at her; he then turned back to Kaiba who decided to slow down, not wanting to see any more police.
" Any idea how to get back to Ann's house?"
After a while of driving in circles, Kaiba and Marie shouting at each other and continuously arguing, they finally pulled into Ann's driveway. Ann stumbled out of the car; that was the last time she would ever let Kaiba drive her anywhere. Everyone else walked out of the car much like Ann. Kaiba walked out of the van like it was an everyday drive. Ann took a deep breath of air and started walking up the lain and into the house. She got up on the porch and was about to turn the knob when the door flung open, Bakura stood there a white expression on his face. Ann blinked at him; she entered the house. The TV was on. The news was on, the police were on a high chase after a green van through the middle of town, their green van. Ann's face went white, the shot they had ended to reveal what was happening now. They were still chasing the green van that was "them". Ann started to laugh. The police had mistaken them for some one else. She then noticed everyone else standing right beside her with the brown bags in their arms staring at the screen in horror. Ann explained.
" That's not us…" The police pulled over the van finally, shooting out the tires. The police ran up and pulled a guy out of the van and surprising he looked at lot like Kaiba. The camera shot closed in on the license plate that wasn't theirs. Ann started laughing even louder. Everyone looked at her like she was nuts.
" That's some other guy…" They all suddenly got what was happening. The police had been chasing someone else that looked like Kaiba and was driving a green van. They had miss taken for them. What were the odds? They all started laughing, even Bakura and Mokuba who now got it. Ann collapsed on the near by couch. The doorbell rang, Marie went to the door, and she opened it. It was Kyle, his face every white. Marie let him in the house. He looked at Ann and said.
"Pegasus… he's coming."
