Akerri: this is not good…..not good, not good……
Nikki: um…Artemis will not be in the show today…she's, well, not feeling well….
Akerri: ….and its Bakura's fault!
Nikki: -__-;; yes….it is. But we have to do the show, so as she would always say, 'On to the show!'
Disclaimer: Artemis does not own Yu-Gi-Oh nor Rurouni Kenshin
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Nikki: hello people! And welcome back to the Tenken Talent Show! *ahem* due to some circumstances, Artemis will not be hosting the show.
Viper: *is laughing her head off*
Nikki: -_-;;…..
Akerri: unfortunately, Bakura got to the point where he bought Artemis a bouquet of lilies, which Artemis is allergic to.
Viper: *rolls on the floor laughing*
Akerri and Nikki: -__-;;;
Akerri: where's lover boy anyway?
Nikki: *starts whistling innocently*
Akerri: you tied him up again, didn't you?
Nikki: *nods*
Akerri: good…
Nikki: well, for our first act of the day will be Ayame, Suzume, and Notaro, doing a little skit for us about…..unicorns. Aww, that's so cute!
Akerri: -__-; that is so gay…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Backstage……~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ayame: *is wearing a little headband of flowers and is putting one one Suzume* there! Now we look pretty!
Suzume: we look pretty! We look pretty!
Ayame: Uncle Sano! Uncle Joey! Are you ready?
Sano and Joey: *nod, while holding a rope tightly*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Ayame and Suzume walk onto the stage and start telling a little story]
Ayame: One day, Suzume and I were skipping along the flowers….
Suzume: yeah! Skipping! Skipping!
Ayame:…and we saw a beautiful unicorn in the distance, on a rainbow!
Suzume: *jumps up and down* a unicorn! A unicorn!
[Sano and Joey let the rope go up carefully, and Notaro comes down from above slowly]
Notaro: *is wearing a paper horn on his head and paper wings* ruff….ruff ruff….
Joey(backstage): ugh, how heavy is this thing?!
Sano(backstage): very heavy….
[both accidentally let go of the rope and Notaro crashes onto the floor]
Audience: *gasp*
Joey and Sano: *turn pale*…….it was his fault!! *point to each other*
Notaro: *comes up unharmed*
Audience: *sigh in relief*
Ayame: the pretty unicorn approached us…
Notaro: *walks up to Ayame and Suzume* ruff…ruff ruff
Ayame: *whispers* unicorns don't say 'ruff', notaro….
Notaro: ruff ruff
Ayame: he let us ride on his back, and we flew off to his home, in the land of rainbows and stars!
[Suzume and Ayame climb on Notaro's back while Sano and Joey struggle to pull the rope again]
Audience: *applaud*
Akerri: -__-;; how wonderful….
Nikki: *reads her que cards over and over again and pulls Akerri backstage* well, Akerri,
the Shadow Realm has been requested for another preformance, but Artemis isn't here, what're we gonna do?
Akerri: I dunno! Why ask me!
Nikki: *stares at her*….
Akerri: stop it….don't you dare….
Nikki: *stares straight at her* …..
Akerri: no….I will not do it! ……you can't make me!….okay! Okay! I'll do it!
Nikki: *smiles* yes! But if you're gonna fill in for Artemis, *pulls out a temporary black hair dye* you're gonna hafta dye the gold ends of your hair black, like Artemis!
Akerri: gah! *clutches her hair, which, if you didn't know, is black with the ends gold* noo! You're gonna ruin my originality!
Nikki: ¬ ¬ I bet that's not even your natural hair color…
Akerri: *sticks out her tongue* well, it is, so nah! *clutches her hair*
Nikki: oh yeah, *pulls out something else* you're gonna hafta use these colored eye contacts, 'cause Artemis has brown eyes.
Akerri: *covers her eyes* but I like green!
Nikki: well, you can't have green, so give it up. And you'll hafta change into Artemis's clothes too.
Akerri: T_T why me!!
-----------------------------------A Few Minutes Later…..-------------------------------------------
Akerri: *is wearing Artemis's clothes, has the golden ends of her hair dyed black, and brown contact lenses on now* --;; ……..
Ryouji: well, well Artemis. Back on your feet again? *nudges Akerri's arm*
Akerri: grrr….*grabs Ryouji's shirt and pulls him so that his face meets her's* listen up, ya annoying, dice-loving, nerd! I'm not Artemis! I am her better-half, Akerri! If you ever so touch me again, I'll rip out your intestines and choke you with them!! *pushes him*
Ryouji: *backs away* ok! Ok! Sheesh…
Yami: *walks up to Akerri* Artemis, what was all about?
Akerri: *gets all fuzzy inside and blushes* eh heh heh, nothing, Yami-kun…
Yami: *places his hand on Akerri's head* are you feeling okay, Artemis-chan?
Akerri: *hugs him* I love you, yami!
Yami: *thinks that Artemis loves him* @.@ but what about Akerri?!
Artemis: *watching the show on TV at home* O.O AKERRI!!!
Ryou: *stares*…..Artemis?
Ryouji: er, um, *hands Akerri Artemis's guitar, making sure he doesn't touch her* c'mon, we got an audience to please.
Nikki: *hops out onto the stage* and now, by popular request, the Shadow Realm!
Ryouji: I'd like to dedicate this to a special girl out in the audience. *eyes Mina*
Fan Girls in the Audience: *start argueing about who he's talking about* he's talking about me!…..he doesn't even know you!……he doesn't know you either!!
Akerri: *whispers to herself* I hope I still know how to play….
Ryouji: 1.….2...3...
[starts the tune of Girl All The Bad Guys Want-Bowling for Soup]
Ryouji: 8:00, Monday night, and I'm waiting, to finally talk to girl a lil cooler than me…
Akerri: //than that would be every girl....//
Ryouji: …..her name is Mina, she's a rocker who's a jewel theif *winks at Mina*, she wears a two-way but I'm not quite sure what that means….
Mina: *blushes and doesn't even notice the angry fan girls death-glaring her*

Akane: …..yes?
Artemis: -__-;; thanks Akane. You made me feel a lot better.
Akane: ^^;; you're welcome!

Audience: *applauds wildly after the song is finished*
Mina: *walks backstage to Ryouji* was that song truly for me?
Ryouji: *nods*
Mina: oh, okay then…..*slaps Ryouji* 'all I wanted was to see her naked' eh? You perv! *walks away*
Ryouji: that's not what I really meant! Its just a song!

Akerri: heh heh heh. Artemis is gonna freak….so. Now to answer one of the reviewers. Cpegasus. Artemis told me to tell you this, since she's, well, not here. The commercial wasn't her idea. It was her co-host's.
Nikki: what?! It's not my product! It's VampireBat's!
V.B.: oh no, you're not putting the balme on me…
Akerri: actually, we are.
V.B.: -__-;;
Nikki: okay folks, time to press the little review button on the botton left corner! See you next time.
Akerri: and burnfist23, since we have no more time, the contest between the cold-hearted, blue eyed trench coat guy(Aoshi) and the cold-hearted blue eyed trench coat guy(Seto) will be postponed until the next show.
Viper: hey! No commercials this time!
Nikki: no time, no ideas…
Viper: ohh, ok.
All: ok! Time to review! Until next time! Ja 'ne!
