Tealie: No, you do it!

Raven: No, you do it!

Yugi: . For heaven's sakes! I'll do it!!!

Tealie, Raven, Yami: *relieved* I was hoping you'd say that.

Yugi: -_- *sighs* Tealie Kaiba does not own Yu-Gi-Oh!, however, she owns herself and Raven. Blah, blah. I did it. Are you happy now!?!

Tealie, Raven, Yami: ^.^ YES!!!!!!! ON WITH THE NOTORIOUSLY SHORT FICCY!!!!!!!!!

(A/N: Like they said, this one is notoriously short. It's basically an introduction to number five)

It was a hot, humid, July Wednesday morning. Tea, Serenity, Joey, Mokuba, Tristan, and Yugi were all sprawled out in Tea's room.

"So is there any point to this?" Joey asked.

Mokuba, who'd been lying down on Tea's bed, sat up. "Yeah," he said. "All of us except Serenity and I are 15, right?"

Everyone else in the room nodded. Mokuba looked at Serenity. "You're 14, right?" Serenity nodded, too hot to say anything. "And I'm 11," Mokuba added as an afterthought.

"Okay," said Joey. "Now that we all know each other's ages, will someone tell me the meaning of this freaking meeting!"

"Right," said Mokuba. "Well, I don't know if any of you know it, but Tealie and Seto's birthday's tomorrow."

The effect of this simple statement was incredible. Everyone had been lying down or was flopped against something. Suddenly, every single person in the room was sitting straight up and saying things that were getting mixed with what other people were saying.

"Their birthday's tomorrow!?!" said either Tea or Serenity.

"I had no clue when Tealie's birthday was!" said either Yugi or Joey.

"I've gotta get a couple presents!" said no one in particular.

"I'm confused!" said either Joey or Tristan.

Mokuba grinned. "Calm down," he said. "I've got money - Seto gives us huge allowances - I've got a driver, and there's a mall down the road. Anyway, I've been planning a surprise party for Tealie and Seto. Here's the plan. . ."

But I can't tell you what it was, or it would ruin the next story.

Tealie: O.O It's over already?

Yami: ^.^ We told you it was notoriously short.

Yugi: O.O It's your birthday tomorrow?

Raven: ^.^ No duh, small fry.

Yugi, Tealie and Yami: . Get 'er! *charge at Raven*

Raven: O.O AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! R&R BEFORE THEY KILL ME!!!!!!!!!!!
