Indigo Tantarian – Yeah, I think you're right about that. Thanks for letting me add the couples! I love Shadi/Isis, too. Scale/Shizuka does seem rather popular... Well I finally added more. BTW, the 3rd chapter of "The Odd and Original Couple" is up.

Jaid Skywalker – Thanks! You think so? It's OK.

Okay, I'm in a hurry to post this b/c I have to get ready to go to a baseball game and maybe kill my cousin if he shouts "Kill the umpire!" like he did last time I went to a baseball game and he was there. So, here's this chapter!

"What did you just call me!?!" They asked each other again, simultaneously. "You herd me!"

"I have a feelin' dis ain't gonna turn out good," Jounouchi stated.

"That makes two of us," Isis replied.

Everyone then continued to watch the argument, which might be able to pass as WWIII.

************************************************************************

A*A*F: What happened?

Suma: You said WWIII; it's supposed to be WWIV.

A*A*F: There's only been two World Wars.

Suma: What about that one in the 1800's your always reading about that happened when that Abram Minkus was President?

A*A*F: That's the Civil War, and his name is Abraham Lincoln!

Suma: I knew that!

Sadiki: *mutters* Yeah right.

************************************************************************

ANYWAY, like I was saying, everyone then continued to watch the argument, which might be able to pass as WWIII.

"At least I know how to dress properly!"

"You call that thing you're wearing 'dressing properly'? That's a laugh!"

"For your information this happens to be very fashionable! Especially when it's compared to something that looks like it's from five thousand years ago! I mean come on, who in their right mind would wear a turban?"

"She didn't have to go that far," Shadi said to apparently nobody.

"I agree," Ankh replied after hearing Shadi say that and then continued to watch the argument.

"Oh like that hay on your head is any better!"

"This is hair!"

"It is? You could have fooled me!"

Everyone sweatdropped as the argument continued and some were beginning to get headaches. OF course, that's not really a big surprise, I mean, what would happen to you if two five-thousand-year-old-spirits were arguing about singers with a teenager, you had to explain something semi-complicated to a baka (Sadiki: *coughJoucough*), and now another five-thousand-year old spirit was arguing with one of the few female duelists? Wouldn't you get a headache too?

"Yugi, do you happen to have any aspirin, I think I'm getting a headache?" Ryou requested.

"Sure, Ryou," Yugi answered.

"Do you mind getting me one too?" Shadi asked.

"No, I don't," Yugi answered as he walked into the refrigerator-less kitchen.

 "So, Ryou, since when does your yami listen to music so much?" Isis asked curiously.

"Well, it all started when my dad was home a few weeks ago," Ryou began I wasn't feeling to well so I talked Bakura into taking control of my body while I slept in my soul room. It was raining badly that day, so he had to stay home. My dad listens to Country music a lot, so Bakura was forced to listen to it while I was asleep. When I woke up, he and my dad were singing along to the song 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' by George Jones. Ever since then he listens to music all the time. He hasn't even mentioned anything about acquiring the Sennen Items."

"Strange..." Isis replied not knowing what to think of the whole thing. What is going on? First, Malik gets on this whole music obsession, now Bakura and apparently Yami? What could be making this happen?

Meanwhile, the gods snickered at Isis' confusion and Suma was getting a very interesting idea.

This is not going as well as I had planned, Suma thought to herself and frowned as she watched through what appeared to be, oddly enough, a television screen what was going on in the game shop. She pushed a button on the television remote and the screen focused on Ankh and Shizuka, who were talking about something. If only Senui and Mai could get along that well. There has got to be some way to get them together. She turned her attention to a newspaper that was lying on the floor. There were two pictures on the front page that caught her attention, one that had a house and the other of a policeman. That's it!

Suma now had the perfect fool-proof plan; she just needed some help...

************************************************************************

I know that was beyond short, but I'll make up for it next chapter. Now, I got to go. Ja Ne!
