Sorry, sorry, sorry. I know I haven't updated in a long time. I just got lazy and with summer vacation and all. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter. Oh, and just to inform you, in the movie, Roxy (who is played by Serenity) tends to drift into her own world wherein she imagines people on the stage performing. To let you know when people are 'on-stage', I'll just use three ***.

I dedicated it to: Aki

Serenity was still shaking. Her hand was still clutching to the weapon that killed Joey Wheeler. There he was, by the door of her bedroom, dead.

She looked into her mirror and saw someone scared and confused. She saw herself.

'FLASH'

The photographer took the last shot of Joey's dead body before a white sheet was spread over him. Serenity observed the scene, clutching tightly to her robe. Detective Bakura was asking Yugi a heap of questions.

"Please don't let him blow the cover, please don't!" , Serenity kept on repeating this in her head. "Alright, get in!" the detective said, then he shot Serenity a suspicious look, "You too" he finally added.

The married couple walked over to their room, having to walk over the dead body. Serenity's insides gave an uneasy drop when she walked over Joey. Yugi sat on the bed and Bakura flashed a flashlight brightly and directly into Yugi's face. "Alright, from the top." He commanded Yugi.

Yugi answered with an innocent tone. But that's what he was anyway, an innocent and WEAK man. "A man's got a right to protect his helpless loved ones, right?" Yugi started. "Right." The detective answered still showing no signs of understanding.

"Well, I just got home from work today and I see this burglar get in so I try to get him down." Yugi continued. "And your wife?" Bakura asked flashing the bright light at Serenity this time. "She was just lying there, sleeping like an angel."

Yugi's words disappeared because Serenity was drifting of to another place. Bakura flashed his flashlight at her this time. But in her head, it wasn't a flashlight but a Spotlight.

*** "Ladies and gentlemen, Ms. Serenity Mutou would like to sing a song dedicated to her dear Husband, Yugi."

Sometime's I'm right

Sometime's I'm wrong

But he doesn't care

He'll String along

He loves me so

That funny honey of mine

Sometime's I'm down

Sometime's I'm up

But he follows 'round

Like some droopy-eyed pup

He love me so

That sunny honey of mine

He ain't no sheik

That's no great physique

Lord knows, he ain't got the smarts

Oh, but look at that soul

I tell you, the whole

Is a whole lot greater than

The sum of his parts

And if you knew him like me

I know you'd agree

What if the world

Slandered my name?

Why, he'd be right there

Taking the blame

He loves me so

And it all suits me fine

That funny, sunny, honey

Hubby of mine

[Yugi speaking to Bakura]

Well, I came in from the garage, Officer, and I

see him coming through the window. With my

wife Serenity there, sleepin'...like an angel...

[Serenity still singing]

He loves me so

That funny honey of mine

[Yugi still talking)]

I mean supposin', just supposin', he had violated

her or somethin'...you know what I mean...

viloated?

[Bakura]

I know what you mean...

[Yugi]

Think how terrible that would have been.

It's a good thing I came home from work on time, I'm tellin' ya that! I say I'm tellin' ya that!

[Serenity]

He loves me so

That funny honey of mine

[Bakura]

Name of deceased... Joey Wheeler.

[Yugi]

Joey Wheeler? How could he be a burglar?

My wife knows him! He sold us our furniture!

[serenity]

Lord knows he ain't got the smarts

[Yugi]

She lied to me. She told me he was a burglar!

[Bakura]

You mean he was dead when you got home?

[Yugi]

She had him covered with a sheet and she's givin'

me that cock and bull story about this burglar, and

I ought to say that I did it 'cause I was sure to get off.

Burglar, huh!

[Serenity]

Now, he shot off his trap

I can't stand that sap

Look at him go

Rattlin' on me

With just one more brain

What a half-wit he'd be

If they string me up

I'll know who

Brought the twine

[Serenity]

And I believed her!

That cheap little tramp. So, she

Was two-timing me, huh?

Well, then, she can just

Swing for all I care.

Boy, I'm down at the garage,

Working my butt off fourteen

Hours a day and she's up mucnhin'

on god-damn bon bons and jazzing.

This time she pushed me too far.

That little chiseler.

Boy, what I sap I was!

(Serenity)

That scummy, crummy

Dummy hubby of mine!

The spotlight goes off.
