Marik finally stopped when he reached his house.  He leaned against the wall breathing heavily.  It was a long run from the school!  Once he had caught his breath, he opened the door to his house and stepped inside. 

He plopped down the couch and sighed.  The house was quiet and he was going to take advantage of every second of it.  After all, it wouldn't be long before…

"UNCLE MARIK!"  He barely had a chance before a pair of tiny pink blobs tackled him down.

"Yahiko!  Misao!  [1] Get off!"  He laughed along with the pair of eight year olds as they hopped of his body.  "Now what's got you two so excited?  You're more hyper than usual.  And why do you look so… pink?"  He raised an eyebrow and looked over the twins.  It was true.  They were both completely covered in pink, er, something.

The two of them started talking all at once.

"We were in art class…"

"Making bunnies!"

"…Wasn't enough glue…"

"And had to share…"

"Yahiko wouldn't share!"

"She fell backwards…"

"You pushed me!"

"…Into the pink corner."  [2]

"Other kids fell in too."

"They pushed me in…"

"You jumped!"

"…And we all got into trouble."

"It was you're fault!"

"No, it was yours!"

"Was not!"

"Was too!"

"Was not!"

"Was too!"

"Was not!"

"Was too!"

"Grrr!"

"Grrr!"

The kids launched at each other and disappeared into a dust cloud.  Marik laughed at their antics as Misao tried to rip her brother's face off.  Just as he was getting ready to pull them apart, his sister, Ishizu, walked in.

"Are you two at it again?  Oh!  Marik, you're home early."  She seemed pretty surprised to see him.

"Yeah well, ran into a little trouble in school today."

"Marik…" he looked at him as she pulled the struggling twins apart.  "What kind of trouble?"

He held his hands up in defense. "It wasn't me I swear!"  She still looked doubtful.  "Sister, I swear, I didn't do it!"

Ishizu sighed.  "Alright, I believe you.  Now I have to do clean up on the pink menaces and then take them to the doctors.  Do you think you can take my shift at the museum?"

"Yeah, sure," he said grabbing his employee pass.   "Later."  He walked down to the end of the black and crossed the street to the museum.  They lived very close so they could get easy access. 

Marik walked in and took a quick look at the working schedule.  Ishizu had 'tour guide' today.  He turned around and was making his way to the group that was starting to form around the stand when he heard a voice from behind him.

"Master Marik!"  He looked around to see Odeon approaching him.

"I thought we agreed you wouldn't call me that anymore."

Odeon shrugged.  "Sorry.  Force of habit.  So what are you doing here?  Isn't today your sister's turn to work?"

"Yeah, but she has to clean up the over sized pink belly button lint."

"The what?" he raised an eyebrow with a disturbed look on his face.

"The twins.  Don't ask."

"I wont.  How are those two doing anyway?"

"I haven't seen so much destruction since the Egyptian God Cards."

"Come now, they can't be that bad."

Marik narrowed his eyes.  "Do you want to babysit?"

"Ahem, oh look!  Your tour group is here.  You better be going."

He grinned.  "Alright.  And I'll talk to my sister about that baby sitting job!"  He left Odeon with his thoughts and went to see his group.

He stopped in front of them and took a look.  It was a fairly normal group.  A few teenagers, some kids with their parents, and a few old floks.  He decided to wait a few more minutes incase there was anyone else.  Oh no.  That was a bad idea.

Just joining the group was Yugi and his friends.  Was school over already?  Marik groaned.  This couldn't get worse if, … Oh you have got to be kidding me!

"Come on big brother!  I want to see the exhibit!"

"Mokuba!  Why are we here?  You know who owns this place."

"But you promised!  Besides, Ishizu's nice.  And it's not like Marik's gonna… oh."  He was the first to see who the guide was.

Marik sighed.  He might as well get this over with.

Yami Yami Yugi:  Short sweet funny and pointless.

Yugi:  It fits you perfectly.

YYY:  Oh shut up. 

Ryou:  But it's true.

YYY:  *ignoring him* Anyway, don't expect another chapter soon.  I'm really more into Magic of Love right now, and low on ideas.  But I'll update eventually.  Ja.
