Sorry!! I'm SO SORRY!! I know I said I'd get the chapter up faster, but stuff happened, and I didn't have time to write. Anyway, I'm getting this chapter done, and it will be super spiffy (hopefully), and all that good stuff. Right now, though, it seems that I'm failing out of my school, and might possibly be going to a public one next semester, if I pull my grades up, that is. Yeah, that really sucks for me, but what can I say? I'm not the best student in the world (that must be obvious because of the random shit I write). I will do my best to get this one done well, and make it really awesomish.

Night had come, and Yugi awaited impatiently for the new arrival to, well, arrive. This was all that was needed to change things around this place. Hopefully, this occupant would set a good example for all of the others who insisted on living in sin. Then again, he might just make everything worse, and lead them all into a spiral of ungodly living. Still, it was better than sitting there doing nothing, right?

Bakura rested his head on the pillow he had stolen from Mokuba while Ryou was on the john. After all this time, and many different tactics, still Jounouchi had some out totally pure and unentered. Maybe there was something he was missing, something that would lead him to what it was he desired... of course! Bakura's face spread into a maniacal grin. All he had to do was act like he trly totally cared for Jou, and the little puppy would be loyal. Little would he know that his master was like those sickos you meet at the gas stations, who do terribly disturbing things to their pets. There was no time to waste! Bakura was off to the corner of the room to where Jounouchi sat playing his air game boy, ready to play his role as the loving, concerned guy.

Seto was getting really tired under the weight of Keith's heavy boots, but didn't dare move from his position. His lovey angel was now asleep, and he wouldn't want to disturb him. Kaiba looked over at the bandit lovingly as he blew a snot bubble from his nose. How could anyone hate such a precious little doll?

Jounouchi laid on the side of the couch Keith wasn't taking up, huddled and looking very afraid. He didn't know when Bakura and Marik might decide to come at him with their dirty, perverted intentions. As of tonight, he wouldn't have slept for two full nights without the worry of these disturbed apartment dwellers. He would stay there, always coming close to falling asleep, only to suddenly open his eyes once more to keep a watch on all of his surroundings, for you never know when one of them would be lurking about.

It was at a moment like this that Bakura walked to where Jounouchi lay. Jou, of course, knowing Bakura's typical patterns, began to spasm, wondering if it would be a good idea to kick Keith and wake him as to put in an obstacle for our favorite albino. Sure, it might guarantee him to the biggest ass whoopin' he'd ever received in his life, but it seemed a tad bit better than the alternative. He then decided not to, though, because he then remembered that Keith had had a few too many beers earlier, and would be experiencing one hell of a hangover when he woke up, so to do so could possibly bring about a sudden bout of, I dunno, death perhaps?

Bakura sat next to Jounouchi, who was now in an upright position, trying to figure out how the hell he'd get out of this situation. Before he could come up with any fabulously ridiculous plans, Bakura spoke.

"Look, I want to say that I'm sorry for coming at you the way I have been the last few days. it was very inconsiderate of me."

"WUZZAH???!!"

Jounouchi couldn't believe his ears. Had he actually fallen asleep and this was all occurring in some morbid dream? Had Bakura gotten utterly stoned? What was the hell was happening.

Bakura grinned as he noticed the expression on the poor puppy's face.

"Why so shocked? Isn't it normal for one to apologize if one is at fault?"

"Well, yeah. If they're normally sane, that is... are you on crack?"

"No, I just feel utterly appalled by my earlier discretions, and wish to reconcile with you."

Jounouchi's eyes grew wide. "Whoa! Hold up there pony! The Bakura I know never feels bad about what he does because he's an utter psycho. For another thing, he never EVER uses big words like riconnsilly, or whatever you said. What's going on?!"

"NOTHING IS GOING ON!! I AM TRYING TO SEEK FORGIVENESS, DAMN YOU!!" This was all starting to get on Bakura's nerves. The last thing he needed was Jounouchi somehow figuring out the truth, though it was kind of freaky he knew so much about his normal thought patterns, considering he was usually taking the time to avoid him.

Bakura wasn't able to go on, trying to sweet talk Jou, because when he had screamed at him, he woke up all the inhabitants of the apartment.

"For the love of shit and all that's sacred, get your ass over here so I can rip your fuckin face off!!" Keith snarled as he jumped into an attack position on the couch, switch blade in hand.

Honda walked into the room, surveying all that was going on. "I am feeling the vibrations of... someone being doted on... Rage building. Building. BUILDING!" It was as if all the fires of hell burned around him as he glared at Bakura and Jounouchi with a demonic flare. It looked like things might have been pretty shitty for the apartment livers, if it weren't for the doorbell suddenly ringing.

Yugi lunged at the door in utter exuberance. "I'll get it!" He said cheerfully, in a sing song voice. He opened it quickly to see none other than the newest occupant of their humble abode. "Ah, Otogi! Glad you could come! Oh, and who is that there behind you?"

Otogi walked inside the house and glanced around, and then nodded in approval. "Yes, I do think this will do." He took notice of Yugi once more. "Oh, sorry. I figured that since you were so eager for a new roommate, I brought a friend of mine along to live with us. I hope you don't mind."

Yugi smiled, "Not at all. The more the merrier, as I always say!"

The tag along then stepped into the apartment, seeming as if it were all made with splendor. "It's simply marvelous! I can certainly see why Otogi wanted to some here, don't you agree, Yugi-boy?"

Jounouchi's head snapped over to where the voice came from. "Pegasus?! Why are you here?"

"Yeah, didn't you die?" Yami asked sleepily as he walked out from the other room.

Pegasus looked over at him sympathetically. "Well, technically yes, but I went and came back. It's all a terribly fascinating story, if I do say so myself."

Otogi gazed at Pegasus dreamily. "Oh please, tell me again! I can never get tired of YOUR stories!"

Pegasus, totally oblivious to the pair of green goo goo eyes, began to tell his story. "Now, you see, after I got killed and all, " He took this time to glare at Bakura with absolute loathing. Bakura glared back as he took a dusty green crayon from his pocket and headed towards his splendid mural, "I was cast down to hell. You know, the whole 'witchcraft is evil' theory. Anyway, I was going up for my judgment when I bumped into Satan. Apparently he was sneaking out of his murky castle to go do explicit things with J-Lo, but that's a whole different story entirely. It was around then that we started up quite the fascinating conversation, and I guess he was in good spirits and made a deal with me. 'Pegasus,' he said, 'I'll let you go back to earth if you promise to bring one hundred souls down here to hell to fuel my furnace,' and I said, 'Oh, what the bejebese? I can do that with a snap crackle and pop,' and so I am now here to convert you all to Satanism and damn your souls. Isn't that great?!"

"Hah! You're too late!" Keith laughed indignantly, "I already sold my soul to Marlyn Manson to get a free t-shirt!"

"Really? Then I have no doubt you'll be joining the rest in the eternal barbeque in no time!" Pegasus smiled happily and then pranced over to the middle of the floor, plopped down, and began to chant his evil refrain. "Call upon the sea ponies when you're in distress, helpful as can be ponies, signal SOS. Shoobi doo, Shoo Shoooo bi doo!"

"Wow, isn't he amazing?" Otogi watched Pegasus affectionately. "I'll sell my soul to him any day."

Yugi shrugged. "I dunno about that, but I guess he DOES have pretty hair."

"You're trying to get him for yourself, AREN'T YOU?!" Otogi towered over Yugi angrily, "I had my eye on him first, so get the hell away from MY to-be guy, ya damn munchkin!!"

Keith pointed and laughed. "Heh, munchkin!!"

"Honey, I really don't think shooting up like that is good for you," Seto said as he tried to pry the syringe out of Keith's hand.

"DON'T CALL ME HONEY!! MY NAME IS NIGHT WING!!"

"Okay Night Wing-"

"Shaddup, ya floozy!"

Shut down, once again. Then again, what can you expect from a guy who's drugged up and probably has more STD's than a hippie in a whore house? You should be sympathizing with him.

Pegasus had then taken out two plushy dolls. Yami looked at them curiously. "It could just be me, but those look a lot like Jounouchi and Bakura."

Pegasus looked about giddily. "Now I will demonstrate to you all the power of voodoo!" He began to whirl and twirl the dolls about happily, as all the others watched Bakura and Jounouchi fly all over the room against their will.

"NO! STOP!!" Jounouchi screamed as he felt himself coming closer to blowing chunks by the moment.

"DAMN YOU, YOU MADE ME SMUDGE MY MURAL!" Bakura shrieked loudly, "WHEN YOU STOP ABUSING ME, IMA KILL YOU!!!"

Pegasus came up with a new idea. He began to bang the plushies into each other. "KISS!" Even though that may have been what he wanted, it didn't really happen. It was more or less Bakura and Jou being bashed into each other constantly in mid air. All of the others in the apartment had sat about on the floor/ couch, eating popcorn and other refreshment while observing the site. It wasn't everyday you got to see too of you roommates flying about in the air crashing into each other repeatedly in what seemed to be a poor attempt of a kiss scene.

Finally, after Pegasus got bored, the two specimens plopped onto the ground and rushed to the bathroom to barf up their guts. After the sound of puking had ceased, everyone setteled down in the apartment for the night to get a nice long rest.

THE PLUSHIES WERE DONATED FROM I R PinkCake. Thank you for giving me them, for they will now be used for quite splendorful things.

Once again, I took forever to finish this, and I'm sorry I keep taking so long, but I've got tons of school work stuff this year, so it's hard to keep up all the time. I'll get the next one up as soon as I have the chance, m'kay? Thanks bunches to all of you who have kept up with this fic so far, because I terribly appreciate it, and, for those whom it may concern, yes, Malik is still probably one of them MAIN main characters in this fic. It just so happens I've gotten a bit... sidetracked... from the original plot line. Who Malik will end up with in the end, I still haven't figured out yet. I might have him paired up w/ Seto again, but I might get bored and put him with te ever queer Pegasus. It all depends on how I feel about it later. Don't worry, the next chapter will be quite superlicious, so I'll write it soonish!
