Chapter 9: Power Outage.
Yugi lit the candle and walked down the stairs were most of the group had gathered. Ryou lay asleep on the couch looking as though he was having a very nice dream. Yami sat in the recliner his arms crossed as he sat there dressed in his purple silk P.J.'s his eye's closed ever the vision of seriousness. Mokuba lay his head head resting on his brothers lap in the hammock as Kaiba himself was dressed in a white T Shirt and Blue Boxers. Yami Bakura sat in the floor next to Yami Malik waring a pair of black silk boxers, and a lose Purple T Shirt with white cuffs on the sleeves his brown eye's slowly attempting to close but then snapping open rapidly. Malik sat looking out the window at the raging storm. The room was dimly lit by candle light as Yugi walked up to Yami put the candle down and sat in his others lap. Tea and Serenity had decided not to join them and had went to sleep in their rooms. Joey and Tristan Lay on the floor sound asleep snoring loudly. Yami Malik lay under the coffee table, no he wasn't asleep he was staring at the bottom of the table although what was so intresting about it only was something only he could answer.

Inside his room Pegasus lay on his bed clutching his Cecilia plushie for dear life. He wasn't exactly comfortable in the dark and his nightlight refused to work. After what had happened this morning his pride was too hurt to go up to any of the others rooms and ask if he could sleep there. Ryou might have let him sleep in his room but then again he shared it with Tristan who was also the one who had once called him 'Pegsy' a name he didn't really care that much for. The shadows slowly closed in on him, as he closed his eye's tightly and squeezed the doll tightly to his chest. "Help..."

"So what should we do to pass the time?" Asked Yugi who ever the perky one was wide awake during the time of the storm. "I have an ideal, you be quiet while we sleep." Said Seto as he slowly drifted in and out of conciousness. This was answered by Yami Bakura who had been fighting sleep off for the past fifteen minutes falling over onto the floor and snore loudly. "Hmm I thought we were suposed to have fun when the power went out!" Said Yugi as he crossed his arms. "Well we're not so go to sleep." Said his Yami as he opened one eye to look down at him.
Suddenly the door creaked open and everyone who was away or partially awake at that time looked for the source of the noise. The creaking sound of the door was heard again as a familiar pair of Pink Bunny P.J.'s were the first thing to emerge from Pegasus's room followed by Pegasus who rubbed his eye's like a child who had just awoken from a bad dream clutching his Doll protectivly as he stumbled out of the room and adjusted to the feeling of the cold floor without his bunny slippers which he couldn't find in the dark. "Pegasus?" Yugi looked shocked as he saw the once proud Industrual Illusions chairman looking scared out of his mind. "Yes Yugi-Boy it's me and I can't sleep so do you mind if I just stay in here with you until the power comes back on?" He asked putting on something no one in the houseshare thought he could pull off: puppy dog eye's. "Sure Pegasus find yourself a place and make yourself comfortable, I don't think the power will be on any time tonight. " Answered Yugi with a cheerful smile. At this Pegasus found a spot on the floor near the couch were some of the large blanket Ryou was covered up with falling off covered up with them and fell asleep.

The next morning the power still wasn't on, the storm was still going strong outside and the sky was painted an ominous shade of black. Yami shook his head as he pulled on his blue raincoat and braved the trip to mailbox in the storm to get he morning mail. "Well this is the one chore I do during the day so I might as well brave the storm to do it." He muttered to himself as he came in took off the raincoat and shook himself dry. 'Wait that gives me an ideal...Ryou hasn't had a day off to rest in a while, when the rest of us run around and act like idiots most of the time he's cooking ,cleaning, and doing just about everything else we're to lazy to do. I'll discuss it with everyone else when they wake up.' At this Yami smiled and looked over to the white haired teen that was sleeping peacefully on the couch.
