"The electricity went out."

"I know."

"Just stating the obvious."

"I noticed."

"Takuya, what's bugging you?" Kira asked as she turned on a flashlight she found the same way she found the bat (out of nowhere for those who've forgotten).

"I'm stuck wearing these clothes longer…" Takuya said with a heavy sigh.

"I'm ever so happy you appreciate my generosity." Kira said sarcastically before blinding Takuya by the light. Soon after the lights went out Takuya and Kira heard a yelp, and knew Kouji had just been bombarded with cold water and complete, utter darkness. So now they had to find an extra flashlight and more spare clothes while hearing Kouji mutter rather rude things in the dark.

"Where are your flashlights any ways?" Takuya asked, as he rummaged through one of the kitchen drawers.

"Well, I collect them so… they're in the storage room." Kira sighed.

"That's a good thing right?" Takuya asked, heading for the room.

"…No, I hide the things I don't like anyone messing with…" Kira explained with a sad sigh. "To find them is the same as explaining how the hell you got here." She continued. Sweat-dropping and being rather uncomfortable at Takuya's stare of disbelief, she became suddenly interested in the carpet.

"Here, how about this. I grab Kouji some clothes, and you find a flashlight hmm? It can't be too hard to find something for him to wear, ne?" Takuya asked.

"I was with you until you said 'ne'." Kira replied.

"-_-;; If I can speak English and Japanese then you'd expect this idiot too…" Takuya muttered under his breath. "It means something along the lines of 'right' okay?" He sighed as Kira 'oooohed!'

"Sounds good." Kira smiled. "That room, just be careful not to trip on anything okay? And just go to the closet. Don't go in my dresser unless Kouji likes to wear panties." Kira said with a wink while smirking and walked into the storage room (yeah, it's in the house…makes no sense does it?) leaving Takuya sticking his tongue out at her and trudging into the room with no light.

"Why'd this have to happen at night? In the country?" Takuya moaned as he looked into the pitch-blackness of the room. Taking careful steps, he slowly made his way to the closet, and thanked every bit of luck the door was left open from when Kira went to grab him something to wear for a short period of time. Moving shirts and pants around ("Now, what size does Kouji wear? Uh…"), he finally found jeans that might fit Kouji and a shirt that didn't feel like it was suppose to be some sort of dress. Walking steadily back, he felt his footstep right on top of something sharp and metallic. Releasing a yelp he hopped away, losing balance in the process and falling to plow his head right into the wall. "SHIT!"

"What's going on?" Kira asked as she ran in with the flashlight and sweat-dropped seeing a dent in the wall and a knocked out Takuya. "-_-|'| How lovely…"

"He okay?" Kouji asked and Kira shrugged. Kouji wasn't wearing his usual outfit (go fig, it's waiting to be washed), but instead a black shirt that fit him better than the grey shirt Takuya wore. He wore a different pair of jeans that were rolled up more than Takuya's because it went past even Kira's feet.

"No idea." She answered. She delivered Kouji some spare clothes and dragged him into her room to help her get Takuya on the living room couch.

"Do you know what happened?" He asked, again receiving a shrug.

"I was looking for another flashlight, then I heard something hit the wall and someone yelling 'shit'." Kira replied and chuckled lightly. Kouji arched a brow in question as to why she was doing so. "Heheh… Poor Takuya, that's the second time today he had his head hit." She chuckled again and Kouji smirked.

"Must have a hard head." He said. The conversation couldn't be carried on from there so the two just sat there in the dark silence. After awhile it became more of an awkward silence, only to be broken by someone's stomach grumbling. Blinking Kouji looked questionably at Kira whom shrugged. That left only Takuya, but he was out cold still…

"Uh… how do you feel about Ramon noodles?" Kira asked uncertainly, and a very light blush spread across her cheeks when Kouji looked at her with mild curiosity.

"Doesn't matter." Kouji replied.

"Phew, good because that's all I can cook." Kira sighed with relief and got up to begin making some noodles for the three of them. Watching her leave, Kouji returned his attention to Takuya who was finally stirring.

"Oww…" He mumbled and got up clutching his head, then turning to Kouji. "Uh… So, she found another flashlight?" Takuya asked with a light grin.

"I guess." Kouji answered bluntly.

"Hn." Was all Takuya answered, as he didn't think of anything else.

"Dammit!" Kira yelled from the kitchen.

"She was going to make some Ramon noodles. Guess the stove requires electricity to work." Kouji explained at Takuya's bewildered look.

"Ah…" He replied. Wanting to continue the conversation with Takuya, Kouji went through his mind trying to find something to say…anything.

"What'd you do?" Kouji asked, finally thinking up something to say.

"Huh?" Takuya asked, returning his attention to Kouji.

"What'd you do to hit the wall." Kouji repeated.

"Uh… oh! Yah that… I stepped on something and lost my balance. Lucky for me the wall helped my fall." Takuya explained with a smirk, and frowned when Kouji just looked at him, not seeming amused.

"Your okay right?" Kouji asked. Slightly taken aback by Kouji asking something like that, slowly the one in question nodded his head slowly. "Hn."

"Graaah!" Kira growled in frustration. "Ugh… Kouji, how do you feel about sandwiches?" She called.

"Takuya's up now." Kouji called to her.

"Really? Cool! Ya'll want sandwiches? I kinda can't make noodles…" Kira questioned again.

"Sure!" Takuya answered after seeing Kouji shrug.

"Peanut butter sound okay to you? And pepsi's too right?" She asked.

"Sounds great." Takuya answered again, for the two of them (him and Kouji that is). Not hearing a reply, the silence returned between him and Kouji. Then again, that wasn't out of the ordinary, so now was the best time to wonder things and reflect upon more recent experiences. Lost in thought, Takuya jumped and fell off the couch as a crack of thunder boomed nearby. "Omph!" Hitting the ground with a thud he sighed and drummed his fingers on the carpet. "…I've said this once, I'll say it again, I really need to stop landing on my head." He sighed and decided to sit cross-legged on the floor. Looking up he saw Kouji looking at him with another curious look.

"And you got scared because of a little thunder?" Kouji asked.

"I was thinking." Takuya answered a bit on the low-volumed side.

"You sure you can think? It could've been you were trying to think but failed…" Kouji asked with a mocking smile.

"That's not even funny." Takuya mumbled and crossed his arms then turned around in a huff. Kouji shook his head and looked at the roof with a frown. 'Why are we here?' He wondered. Closing his eyes, he recalled the events perfectly. They were winning… All five of them… Then Grumblemon, what did Kira call it? ah yes, slide evolved and kicked all their asses. He, Takuya, and Tomoki fell together, so where was Tomoki? 'Wherever he is, I hope he's okay.' Kouji sighed and snorted. 'Sounding like Takuya now…' He thought with slight disgust. A few more minutes passed by without a sound, which led to Kouji and Takuya becoming slightly worried. They should at least hear Kira walking around, what was going on?

"I'm gonna go check on her." Kouji said and stood up and began to walk towards the kitchen and his eyes widened in disbelief.

A/N: Uhm… yah, Kouji and Takuya don't like each other yet. And as a warning, Kyle will pop up next chapter, don't worry he poses no threat, just is kinda've there for a short period of time, no worries that's probably the only chapter he's in. Just thought you should know. Oh, and for those who asked when you'd be appearing… somewhere between these next few chapters and chapter eight… And now. The bad news. I'm going out of town (Yes, again…) until the very end of July, and right when I get back I need to do some schoolwork. Luckily, I came prepared this time around, and I have the next few chapters already written, and only chapter eight needs to be redone. Soooo, right before I leave here in about 2-3 hours, I WILL update again, and if I don't, I shall bring my floppy with me so it can be done when I get there. So so so so so sorry!!!*Bows to almighty reviewers*
