It's Time...to S-S-S-Sleepover?

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or any related material. I don't own Hot Wheels either, hehehe...or Scrabble...OR Palmolive! Sheesh, I don't own anything.

Author's Note: Muahaha! In our last exciting episode, Kaiba was knifed in the back. Or was he? I can't reveal that just yet! Now then, you may be wondering, what's going on with Pegasus?

Yami: "Not really."

Hehe...Me either, but I realized that I kinda just forgot him after Chapter 2, sooo...Chapter 4'll starting off with a little Pegsy. It has everything that's happened to him after he skips into the cellar. *sheepish grin* And as always, my annoying reminder - actually, Yami can say it since he likes interrupting so much...

Yami: *gets a piece of paper shoved in his face*

"You're pathetic, you know that?

PLEASE READ AND REVIEW...OR FACE DIRE AND DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES - which would be?"

Me: Hehe, uh...I haven't thought of any...but I'm not expecting anyone not to review, so we won't be needing that!

Chapter Four: Random Madness...and Romance?

Pegasus: "My, my, it certainly is dark in here."

*SLAM*

Pegasus: *jumps*

"Eek! What was that? Blast this darkness! Oh well, guess it's on to the wines for ol' Pegsy!"

*walks straight ahead*

*bump*

"Ouch! I can't see a thing in here! Oh poo. I wish I still had my Millenium Eye, but that naughty Baka-boy stole it. I'm going to have to teach him a lesson one of these days, hehehe."

"Galloping gorgonzola! I have a glowstick in my pocket! Now, how did that get there?"

*glowstick gives off a sickly yellow light*

"Mmm, I hope Kaiba-boy put a real light down here."

*looks for a light switch and finally finds one*

*click*

A lone bulb flickered into life and revealed a vast underground room filled with racks and racks of bottles of wine.

Pegasus: *shrieks*

"I'm in heaven! Kaiba-boy, I salute you!"

*dances madly around the wines*

One hour later, Pegasus was still unaware that he was locked in the cellar. Since then, he had been choosing the wines for the "party" they were supposedly having.

Pegasus: "Hmm...I simply can't decide! Should I choose this one? Or that one? Ahh, how I worship wine..."

[AN: Sorry, dunno much about wines!]

Pegasus: "Eureka! I know just the one to pick - it's the most splendid wine ever!"

*capers around looking for it*

*finds the bottle*

Pegasus: *reverently*

"Ohh...It's the one! Le Juice de Fruite...Simply mah-velous! I can't believe Kaiba-boy shares my love for this..this delectable stuff! I must remember to congratulate him on his good taste."

*climbs up stairs to leave*

Pegasus: "Hm, that's rather peculiar. The door seems to be locked."

*rattles doorknob*

Pegasus: "Hello out there? Kaiba-boy? Yami-boy? Baka-boy? Anyone there?"

*shrugs shoulders*

Pegasus: "Must be an initiation type of thing. Oh well, it doesn't matter as long as I have my fruit juice!"

*uncorks bottle with his patented pock-o-matic-uncorker*

Pegasus: *sniffs deeply*

"Ah... I do love that refreshing aroma...I don't think Kaiba-boy would mind if I took a sip, just a little taste to make sure it's still as good as it should be..."

*takes a tiny sip and swishes it around his mouth*

"I declare, it's as good as mine! But, I'd better taste some more to make sure it's alright. After all, I don't want to spoil the fun by choosing a less-than-perfect bottle!"

*drinks a mouthful*

"Excellent! Superb! Maybe a bit more would help, you can never tell until the third sip!"

*gulp*

As it turned out, he couldn't tell from the fourth sip, or the fifth sip, or the sixth sip either, and each sip was considerably larger than the last. At that rate, he had drained over half the bottle in less than 10 "sips."

Pegasus: "Whoopsy-daisy! I guess I've accidently drank a tad more than I expected to..."

*titters gaily*

"...But being the amateur drinkers they are, Yugi-boy and his friends won't notice if I mix another bottle with the rest of Le Juice de Fruite."

*uncorks a random bottle of wine*

"But Kaiba-boy must be experienced to have such an impressive collection, so he won't be fooled...I guess I have no other choice but to drink half of another bottle of Le Juice de Fruite and pour the rest into this one! But it seems such a shame to let this uncorked bottle go to waste! Might as well drink that too!"

*titters even more gaily and proceeds to down the entire bottle in one gulp*

As you can probably imagine, this led to a strange cycle of drinking and pouring, so we'll just leave Pegasus busy "organizing" Kaiba's wine cellar. Back to the exciting adventures of everyone else:

Yugi: "W-we're not r-really going in t-there, are we?"

No one answered since they had all already followed Yami into the hallway where the bloodstains led.

Yugi: "H-hey guys, wait up for me!"

*clammy hand grabs Yugi's arm*

"Whaa- Eek! B-"

*topples over in fright...and stays that way*

Meanwhile, in the hallway with everyone else:

Tristan: "Hey, the bloodstains stop right here."

Yami: "But there are drops of blood leading that way..."

*pointing down hallway*

"...which means Bakura probably picked the body up and has it stashed in one of these connecting rooms."

Joey: "Something about this doesn't seem right to me..."

Mai: "When'd you figure that out, genius?"

Yami: " Oh! Oh! I know! If I were a bloodthirsty killer that hasn't eaten in a while I'd take an axe and go into the first room I see!"

Serenity: "Look! The axe over there next to that room is missing!"

Joey: "The drops also lead in there!"

Tristan: "So who wants to go in first?"

Joey: "You do!"

*pushes Tristan into room*

"Heh heh heh."

Tristan: "Whoa!"

*trips over large stiff object*

*everyone rushes in*

Tristan: *Huddles in corner shaking*

"Ewwww...I stepped on a dead person!"

Mai: "You wimp! Thats just an axe covered in guts and other junk."

Yami: "You're not fazed by much, are you?"

Mai: "'Course not. Getting all worked up is bad for my complexion!"

*Takes out some eyeliner and proceeds to apply it*

"I need a mirror!"

*wipes off axe blade*

"There! That'll do nicely!...EEEEEK! I've got a pimple! A PIMPLE!!"

Tea: "Let me see. That's no pimple."

Mai: "It's not?"

Tea: "Nope. That's definitely a wart."

Mai: "WART?! ARGGGGGGHHHHHHH!"

*Dashes down hallway covering face*

"Pimple...aaugh...Huh? Hey, guys! I think I found your dead body! Oh wait - it's just Yugi fainted with bloody hand prints all over his sleeve."

Everyone else: "What the f***?!"

*Run down hallway*

Yami: *reaching Yugi*

"I can't believe I didn't notice he wasn't with us!"

Tristan: "Ay-yi-yi-yiii!! My best friend - dead? It can't be..."

Joey: "Hey, I thought I was your best friend!"

Tristan: "...it shoulda been that stupid Joey! Poor, kind, friendly Yugi!"

*staggers around crazily holding head with his hands*

While they were all crowding around Yugi, worried, no one noticed a floor tile moving. If they had been looking that way, they would have glimpsed a flash of white. No one noticed either when the tile slipped and closed on some fingertips, but if they had been paying attention, they would have heard a voice faintly go, "Damn!"

Yugi: *groggily*

"Uh...what's going on, guys?"

Tea: "Yugi! Yugi! Are you okay?"

Yugi: "Um...yeah, I think. All I remember is an arm grabbing me, and then I think I, uh..."

*faltering*

Tea: *bright-eyed*

"You did what, Yugi?"

Yugi: "I, uh...fought back valiantly! But he overpowered me, and I think he must have knocked me out. Hehe..."

Joey: *still sulky*

"Right, knocked you out by touching your arm and messing up your shirt..."

Yugi: "Hey...He touched me really hard, okay?"

*looks at sleeve for first time*

O_O

"...Harder than I thought! I'm bleeding! Someone get me a band-aid!"

Serenity: "That's just a bloody hand print."

Yugi: "Oh, okay."

O_o

Joey: "Yadda yadda yadda. I'm getting tired. Why don't we all just go back into the kitchen and get something to eat?"

Yami: "Good idea. We can figure everything out in the morning."

Mai: "Yeah, and I got a wart to freeze off - hey where did it go? - oh, it's on the floor. Hmmm...looks like a tire from a Hot Wheels car. Geez, what loser still plays with those things?"

*The gang starts toward the kitchen*

Yugi: *furtively looking around for something*

"Ah hah! So that's where it went!"

*takes a red Hot Wheels car out of his pocket and puts the wheel back on*

"...Vroom...vroom!"

Tristan: "Hey, Yuge! You comin'?"

Yugi: "Yeah, sure, Tristan!"

*he "vrooms" off to the kitchen*

Joey: "Who's makin' the chow?"

Serenity: "I can do it."

Joey: "How can you cook?"

Serenity: "Great!"

Joey: "Not like that! I meant how can you cook when you've only been seeing for a couple months?"

Serenity: "Thats for me to know and you...uh...not to find out!"

Joey: "...um..will someone else cook?"

Serenity: "What, big brother? Don't feel adventurous enough to venture into a whole new realm of flavor?"

Tristan: *under his breath*

"I'm not sure if I'd want to venture in myself 'cause if Joey won't eat it, it's probably banned by the FDA..."

Yugi: "Hey, Yami can cook! He cooks great! In fact, he even has an apron that says -"

*Yami claps his hand over Yugi's mouth*

Yami: "Er...okay, I'll help cook...hehe, you be quiet now, Yugi."

Yugi: "Mrrph..otay, Wami."

Yami: O_o?

"What'd you just call me? Oh right, sorry."

*removes hand from his mouth*

Serenity and Yami go into the kitchen, while the rest of them go into the living room to wait.

Tea: *magically pulls out Scrabble from behind her back*

"So...how 'bout a game of Scrabble, guys?"

*makes eyes really big*

Everyone else: "Aaugh...not again! There's no point 'cause you always win at it!"

Tea: *eyes get squinty*

"No?"

*a glint of steel is seen*

Everyone looks around uneasily...

Ryou: "Sure we'll play with ya, Tea!"

So Tea "cajoled" them into playing Scrabble, while Yami and Serenity were having an interesting, to say the least, time making dinner.

Serenity: *standing in front of stove flipping pancakes*

"Do you think these are done yet, Yami?"

*pancakes are blackened and charred*

Yami: O_o

"Uh...they look a little...black?"

Serenity: "Heh, sorry. I guess my eyesight's not as good as I thought it was, huh."

Yami: *eyeing her strangely*

Serenity: *embarrassed*

"Wh-why are you looking at me like that..."

Yami: *grins*

"It's okay. Here, let me see if I can help..."

*comes up behind her, wraps arms around her waist and starts making pancakes like that*

Serenity: "Wh-what are you doing..."

'What the hell does he think he's doing?! Hm...I didn't know he was going to do that...guess Mai was telling the truth after all...he does like me?!'

Yami: 'Holy crap...what the hell do I think I'm doing?! Okay, I should've never listened to Tristan about this romance stuff...Heck, he can't even get a girlfriend! Oh crap...what did I just do...'

*quickly steps back*

Both: *blushing crazily*

Yami: *not looking her in the eye*

"..Er...sorry...I dunno what came over me just now..."

Serenity: *still blushing*

"That's okay...I didn't mind..."

Yami: *looks up*

"Really?"

Serenity: "Yeah..."

*gazes into his eyes*

Yami: *gazes into her eyes*

*both start leaning toward each other*

Tristan: *comes into kitchen*

"Hey guys, I- oops..."

Yami & Serenity: *look away guiltily*

Tristan: "..justcametogetadrinkofwateruhbye!"

*leaves in a hurry*

Serenity: "Uh..guess we'd better start making dinner again! Hehe..."

Yami: "Uh..right! Yeah..."

*busy pouring something into the pan*

Twenty minutes later, as Yami and Serenity came out with their broccoli/carrot/asparagus wheat-flour pancakes, Tea had just won for the eighth time.

Tea: "Ha! I scrabbled y'all good!" ^_^

-----------------------

Board: (words)

Yugi: dark, magician, puzzle

Joey: hungry, sleepy, chili

Tristan: spiky, macho, cheese

Mai: lipstick, glamorous, beautiful

Ryou: albino, millenium, bleach

Tea: vituperative, exacerbating, effervescence

-----------------------

Serenity: "So, who's up for some health food?"

Joey: "Aaugh..."

*sniff* *sniff*

"Hey...that actually smells kinda good! What is it?"

Serenity: "Veggie pancakes, of course! You couldn't tell by the little green bits?" ^_^

All: *anime fall*

They all sit down around a table and start "eating" it, not wanting to offend Yami or Serenity. Eating, meaning, slipping their food into a napkin on their laps...or in Tristan's case, throwing it on the ground. Joey, on the other hand, was actually eating it...

Joey: "Mmrph...glomph...Hey, this is actually pretty good!"

Yami: "By the way, Serenity, what was that fruit stuff you had on the counter? It sure added a lot of zing to it."

Serenity: "What fruit stuff?"

Yami: "You know, the one that said Palmolive and it was gooey and a little funny smelling...I put it in the pancakes 'cause I thought it was part of the recipe."

Serenity: O_o

"Uh...that's...dishwashing liquid. Oh yeah, I guess I'll go wash the dishes...but I don't know if there's any left for me to use..."

Yami: "You could always use sand and water...that's what we did in ancient Egypt."

*gets more stares and tries to change the subject*

"Um...what's wrong with you, Joey? Purple's not a healthy color, you know."

Joey: *choking*

"Eeurgh...dish..washing...liquid?"

*Burps and a bubble comes out*

Mai: "That's disgusting, Joseph."

Tristan: *paralyzed with laughter*

"HAHAhahahaa...You actually ate that crap? Hahaha..shoulda thrown it on the floor like me, huh? Hahaha..."

Yami: "You what?!"

Tristan: "Oh hi there, Yami...hehehe...I think I'll go to sleep now..."

*tries to leave but slips on a piece of his pancake*

"Whoaaa! Owww, my bun-buns!"

Joey: *choking again, but with laughter*

Ryou: *yawns*

"I think I'm gonna go to bed now..."

*starts walking off*

*turns around*

"Uh..where are we sleeping?"

Tea: "Well, all our stuff is in the living room, so we might as well sleep there."

Ryou: "Good idea, I'm gonna go set up my sleeping bag."

*leaves*

*comes running back, panicked*

"No way in HELL am I sleeping there! I think Pegasus is getting too happy down there!"

Yami: "You wimp...He can't get us, remember?"

*goes into living room*

*comes running back two seconds later with a strange look on his face*

"I think I'm going with Ryou on this one..."

They all go into the living room to grab their stuff so they would be able to find another place to sleep. Suddenly, a loud crash is heard and two seconds later, loud singing reaches their ears.

Pegasus: "FIFteen men on a dead man's chest! YO-HO-HO and a bottle of RUM!"

*hiccup*

Everyone: O_o

Pegasus: "Better watch OUT, 'cause I'm comin' to getcha!"

Everyone: O___o

Pegasus: "...Yes, you! I'm gonna BREAK your neck with this brick right here..."

*hic*

Everyone: O_____o

Pegasus: "I'm gonna POP yer cork wide open with me rusty screw! ARR, matey!"

*falsetto voice*

"Oh please, kind sir, don't hurt me!"

*hiccup*

*masculine voice*

"Yaargh! I'm gonna drink you allll up!"

Everyone: *hears a wine bottle being smashed*

Joey: O_O

"I don't care WHAT anyone says, I'm getting the hell outta here! Yaaagh!!"

*runs out of living room*

Everyone looks at each other for about two seconds, then instantly grab their bags and follow Joey...



Author's Note: Umm...so what didja think? I know it was a really disorganized chapter...and the romance bit was unexpected, to say the least. It was corny too, but believe me, it was supposed to be that way...you know, for humor...

*waits for laughs but doesn't hear any*

-_-;; ANYway, muchas gracias to everyone who responded and reviewed! You guys are the best!

Chibi ice dragon: Sorry...but everyone else wanted romance...so I had to listen to them...I am a slave of the majority's bidding...*walks around like a zombie*

Yesh...sorry if I didn't put the pairings you wanted in. Hmm...maybe in future chapters there'll be Joey/Mai or Kaiba/? (that is...if he's alive...*cue scary music*) Those seem to be the ones most people requested. Just stick it in your reviews or email to let me know what you want!
