--------------------------------On the boat.------------------------------- ----------- Serenity led Duke to his room. It was huge, as big as a normal ballroom. (How big is the ballroom, then?) The bed had a canopy and satin sheets. There were elaborately furnished bathrooms. The whole room wasn't just one room. There were three rooms. One was the bedroom, one was a pool and one was a living room type thing. Duke just stood and stared. "If you think that's big, you should wee Seto's room," said Serenity. At that moment, Duke came back to reality and .well.I don't know what he did and don't want to know. -------------------------------------------With Marik.---------------------- ----------- Marik came to himself after fainting on the hot sand. He didn't know what he was doing there. Then an image of the Winged Dragon of Ra came to mind. All the memories of the duel came flooding back. "DARN THAT KAIBA CORPERATE JERK!!!!" Marik screamed into the night sky shaking his fist. Then he looked to the harbor. The ship was gone. And so was the millennium rod. "NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" ---------------------------------back on the ship--------------------------- ----------- Seto Kaiba was in his room, working on his laptop. *Man, Neopets is down for maintenance.*so he went on fan fiction, and searched up by author penname "falaine". (That's Serenity's penname.) He spotted a story that looked interesting. It started out with: Seto Kaiba was in a bad mood. His friends had abandoned him, and now Tea was in the middle of a friendship crisis. She had to choose between Seto and her other friends. Seto was shocked. *Is Serenity writing about the problem between me and Yugi? Was that the fanfic she mentioned before? I'm confused, why would she write a fanfic about me? Is she hinting at something?* at that moment, Serenity came in and spotted what was on the screen. Serenity: Oh, I see you're reading my fanfic. Seto: .umm. Serenity: I'm still working on it. Seto: umm. Serenity: I'm sorry if you didn't what to be part of the story.you don't mind, do you? Seto: umm. Serenity: Oh well. Take that as a no. ^_^ ya wanna go swimming? Tea's there. Well.even if you don't, I'm going, K? So's it a yes? No? Maybe so? None of the above? Seto came out of his reverie. "Yeah, I'll go. Wait a minute while I get my swimming stuff." and he disappeared behind a curtain, looking very red indeed. Serenity heard a muffled "Can't.find.stuff.." And a trench coat was thrown over the curtain. It landed on Serenity. *Man, how can Seto wear this heavy thing.?* She pried it off and then looked kinda curious. She put it on. Next came boots flying over the curtain. Serenity put that on too. Then pants. Serenity hesitated, and then put it on, too. (Over her own pants, mind you) Pretty soon, when Seto finally found his swimming stuff, and emptied his suitcase of all his clothes (besides the undies) he came out and saw Serenity in the exact matching outfit of what he was wearing. Serenity: Man, your stuff is so heavy. How can you wear all this stuff? Seto: . (just stared) Serenity: Well, how do I look? (And did a Seto imitation of activating the duel disk.) Seto: Well.umm.very.me-ish. Can you give that stuff back now? Serenity: Can I? I can, but I don't want to. I wanna show the rest of the peoples. Seto was on the verge of bursting out laughing. O course, he was always able to keep a straight face, so keep a straight face he did. Seto: Ok, fine. Well, you're going, right? To swimming? Serenity: Yeah. I can't walk around in this stuff. Do you have a pair of stilts? Seto: No. You're fine. C'mon. So they went to the Olympic-sized pool. Tea was just coming out of the dressing room. She spotted Serenity and Seto standing together like two identical twins. What was crazier, Serenity had gotten a pair of color contacts (blue) so that now they were completely matching besides the hair length and height. "Hi, Tea," they both said at the same time, and waved simultaneously. Tea waved back and dived in. When she surfaced, Serenity was walking into the girl's dressing room, and Seto was already gone. Pretty soon, Serenity came out in a bathing suit and sat on the edge of the diving board. Her back was facing the boy's dressing room. That was the reason why she didn't see Seto sneaking up on her. He snuck up and lightly pushed her over the edge. Serenity shrieked with surprise but since she took gymnastics and was talented at diving, she flipped in midair and dived gracefully into the water. Seto whistled. Serenity surfaced and yelled, "Don't you ever do that again!" Seto grinned and dived in, splashing Tea and Serenity. Duke came out of the dressing room and saw Seto with Serenity, and got all fired up. "Who do you think you are, messing with Serenity? I thought you were with Tea!" At this moment, Tea turned red and drifted a little farther away from Seto. "Well, Serenity isn't anyone's girl. She isn't a piece of property, you know!" exclaimed Seto. "And besides, Serenity asked me to go swimming." Duke stared in fury at Serenity, but at a warning glance from her, asked meekly, "Can I join?" Serenity and Tea agreed.
