Wow! You guys have given me so much support, I'm going to give you what you want like the Anzu haters you are! I apologize to all of those who like Anzu. You are entitled to your own feelings. I'm going to get to the fic ASAP. First, responses to reviewers!

Invader Mya and Her Yami's: What can I say? I'm so glad you keep coming back for more! Welcome back!!!

Sakura: Kill Tea in my next story or chapter? Sounds good, but for all Anzu haters everywhere, who would mourn? I could make it really sappy. Any suggestions are welcome.

Yami Bakura Kia: Oh will you be surprised!!!! Yes, she is rather evil. Wait until you see what I do to her! I died laughing writing this at work during my break.

Yami Tsuki Tenshi: I want to join Anzu haters anonymous. I think that is a really good idea! I wonder if there's a site on the net for it. Probably. I think so.

Silverdragon: You can have your choice of wowwypops. I like the cherry or grape. Yummy. As far as the Anzu bashing goes, it will be painful. Painful for us to stop laughing and for poor Ryou.

Ryou: Did you say my name, bakurasgirl?

Me: I wuv you, Ryou! (Hugs Ryou)

Ryou: Aren't you Bakurasgirl, though?

Bakura: I'm Number One! I'm Number One! I'm Number One! I'm Number One!

//…..//- Yami's thoughts

ALL CAPS IS SCREAMING !!

Warning: Anzu is sickeningly sweet, so if you are not diabetic before reading this, you will be after.

Darkness Approaches….I mean Anzu

"hey, Yug, Whatcha doin' today? Arcade? Movies? Smorgasbord?"

"It's 9am, Joey. Why a smorgasbord?"

"I dunno. Just an idea." Joey heard a chair slide in the kitchen. "Yami! That you?"

//Crud.// "Hi, Joey."

Anzu ran inside looking at the broom in corner. "Yugi, did you sweep the floor yet? Aren't you opened?"

Yugi yawned and tried to block her way to the kitchen. If she woke Ryou, Bakura would not think twice about sending her to the Shadow Realm (as if that would be a bad thing?)

"I was actually woken out of a dead sleep by-."

"I thought of something!" (There's miracle in and of itself!) Anzu said suddenly looking at the broom in the corner. Everyone held their breath. Maybe something intelligent might come out of it for a change. Boy would they be disappointed!

"Friendship is like a broom. Without a broom, the floor could not get clean, so they need each other!!! YEAH, FRIENDSHIP!!!"

Yugi: 0_0

Yami: (from inside the kitchen)……….not again.

"Woudn't having a broom predetermine the existence of a floor?" Yugi said trying to confuse her. Suffice it to say, it worked. Anzu stopped. Her face gave an expression of brain implosion (her brain collapsed on itself because it was too much for her).

Don't worry, dear reader. I don't understand it either. Just go with me on this one.

Anzu:…….

Joey: "…..my brain hurts. Time to eat!" joey ran into the kitchen before Yugi could grab his shirt. Anzu remained blankly staring at the wall still trying to process the word "broom" in Yugi's sentence. Joey went right to the fridge without seeing Yami. Yami tried to cover Ryou's hair with the blanket.

"Don't finish all the chips this time," Yugi chided.

"Leave me some, too, Joey," Yami grumbled. Yami was very protective of his chips….especially his Cheddar and Sour cream (My favorite!MMM….Ruffles Ridges).

"Yeah, yeah." Joey spread a large sandwhich over the table and a bag of Yugi's Hot BBQ chips.

"What happened to breakfast?"

"I dunno." Joey looked at Yami with a small object in his arms. "Yami, what 'cha got there?"

"A doll!" Yugi said too quickly.

"What?!" Yami retorted.

"Don't point it out to Yami. He's sensitive."

"I haven't played with dolls in five thousand year!"

Yugi and Joey look at Yami wide-eyed suppressing laughter.

"I mean ever! I never played with dolls!"

A moment later, Yugi and Joey were laughing hysterically. "Quiet down there!" bellowed a voice from upstairs. "Some spirits are trying to sleep!"

Joey stopped cold. "What's Bakura doing here?"

"N-Nothing. Why?"

Ryou began to shift in Yami's arms. Yami left the table to get a glass of water when the blanket covering Ryou's head fell off. Yami froze.

"That doll looks so real, Yami!" Yami turned around as Ryou started to whimper again.

Yugi went to Yami at the countertop. "What's wrong with him?" Yami felt Ryou's forehead. It was a little warm which could have been attributed to the blankets.

Yami also remembered one time when Bakura had beaten up Ryou so badly he had a fever for a week as a result. There were no signs of mistreatment on Ryou, but Yami didn't trust the tomb robber.

Joey abandoned his breakfast to join Yami and Yugi. "Hey, that little squirt looks just like Ryou."

"Well, Joey, it is Ryou."

"WHA-?"

Yugi explained Bakura's hasty entrance and even hastier retreat. "I'm surprised Bakura didn't just abandon him."

"He may be sick, though. Bakura said he has done nothing but cry since he came in and he won't let me go. We may have to take him to a doctor."

Joey looked surprised. "What are we going to tell him, Yug? That his evil spirit brought him here this morning mysteriously changed into a baby? We'll look life a bunch of loonies!"

"We have to put him to bed somewhere." Yami clutched Ryou to his shoulder when…..Anzu entered.

If her chin could have dropped to the floor it would have. Her eyes went wide and she clutched her hands together. In her own glass-shattering voice, she squeeled, "OHMYGOD!OHMYGOD!IT'SABAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBYYYYYYYYYYYY!" Yami was tackled by Anzu who grabbed Ryou and rubbed him against her face. (Now chibi Ryou needs a bath!) "OHMYGODHE'SSOOOOOOCUTE!WHEREDIDHECOMEFROM?WHO'SACUTIE-PIE!THAT'SRIGHT!YOU ARE!WHOSE-A-WOOSIE-WOO-WOO!" Anzu threw Ryou into the air causing him to try to curl up into a protective ball. "UPSIE-DAISY!" Anzu threw Ryou again and he began to cry (can you blame him?)

"Anzu!" Yugi chided. "We just got him to sleep!" Loud footsteps could be heard running down the steps. Bakura ran into the room as he saw Ryou being mistreated by the raging psychopath, I mean Anzu. Yami grabbed Ryou who arched himself into Yami's buckled chest.

Bakura clenched his fists. "I was having the best dream of my afterlife and-you!"

"Why didn't you tell me Ryou was turned into a CUTSIE-WOOTSIE WITTLE BABY?"

"THAT'S IT! OFF TO THE SHADOW REALM WITH YOU!"

"No, Bakura, you can't!" Yugi protested

"Why not?"

"Then we can't bash Anzu anymore!!!!!!"

Bakura stopped, but his hand and his eye were twitching.

"Yeah, Bakura. It's not nice to send people to the shadow realm! It's not very friendly! Friendship is a warm and fuzzy feeling you get in your little tum-tum (in english, stomach), like a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter's morning."

Bakura's vein throbbed in his head like everyone else in the room. That little voice that says "Kill" was overpowering in everyone's minds. Anzu ran to Yami and wrapped her arms around Yami and Ryou eliciting a scream from both man and child. She grabbed Ryou again and cuddled him tightly. "Friendship is like Ryou! Soft, cuddly, and sugary sweet!" Bakura twitched furiously at the girl. Bakura actually pitied Ryou for being in his position now. Yami pulled Ryou away and calmly brushed past a fuming Bakura followed by Yugi and Joey.

Bakura grabbed her arms as she tried to sneak by. "You know, I saw a puppy outside. I wonder if it was yours. Go outside and see for yourself."

"A PUPPPYYYYYYYYYYY?!" Anzu ran outside faster than humanly possible. "WHERE ARE YOU PUPPPYYYYYYYYYYY?!" Bakura locked the front door. Everyone sighed in relief. Bakura collapsed in front of the door barricading it with his own (hot) body (oops….didn't mean to type that.)
