Chapter Nine: Lunch, Eurgh!

Kenny's first impression of the lunchmeat was not the best you could give. After regaining his consciousness (thanks again to Nazill and his items), he felt hungry. Luckily, Gym was always before Lunch.

Unluckily, it was Monday and Monday was always,

C.M.: Chilli Day. Kenny, Nazill, Lizaan, this is Rule One: Never eat the chilli. It's at your own risk.

Yugi: It's true. That's why I bring lunch from home.

C.M.: My idea exactly.

Jounouchi: Aw, c'mon, you wusses. It's probably not that bad.

Everyone else: Probably?

Honda: If you're so sure, then why not try some?

Jounouchi: Honda, my friend, I would go along with this usually. But today, I wanna save my appetite.

Anzu: For something edible, I suppose.

Honda: (slyly) Why not raise the stakes?

Jounouchi: (suddenly listening) Like what?

Honda: If you eat the chilli, and without flinching, then I'll give you fifty zeni.

Jounouchi: Deal. Prepare to lose, Honda.

Jounouchi set off to get some chilli and Honda talked to Kenny for the first time all day.

Honda: Hey, Kenny, both Jounouchi and me are real sorry for hanging you up in the girls' shower room.

Kenny: Ah, that's all right. If you hadn't, I wouldn't have met you two or Anzu.

And what's so bad about the chilli anyway? It can't be all bad.

C.M.: Kenny, there are some things in life you should never ask and cafeteria food questions are some of them.

Kenny: Well, I'm gonna go get some of this chilli.

Jounouchi came back with a full bowl of steaming chilli and sat down for all to see. One bite and Jounouchi started flaming at the mouth.

Jounouchi: Wadda, wadda! Gemme ome wadda!

While Jounouchi was flailing about like an idiot, Kenny went to Jounouchi's bowl, took up a fork and took a bite himself.

Kenny: (seeming normal) Hmm, rather cold. I'll go get some ketchup and mustard.

Everyone did an anime fall over with the sound of an anvil while Kenny walked off to get some ketchup and mustard.
