~*Strategies, Plans, and What-Not*~

That night, Rei, Usagi, Minako, Maokto, and got together in Rei's house to discuss the match that will take place tomorrow.

"I say we transform ourselves to the sailor scouts!" Usagi pointed one finger up in the air.

"I'm not so sure." Minako leaned against the wall. "If we fight as sailor scouts, everyone will know who we are the whole time."

"What's going on?" Luna and Artemis entered the room. Chibi Chibi followed them from behind, looking up at the girls curiously.

"Luna?" Makoto was a bit startled as she saw the two cats.

"Usagi-chan." Luna looked up at the girls. "What is going on?"

"Well…um…Luna…" Usagi started to say.

"We're having a fight against some kids in our school tomorrow." Minako blurted out.

"Minako?!?" everyone was ticked off as their friend seemed to finally reveal their secret.

"A fight?" Artemis gazed at Minako. "How shameful of you. You sailor scouts should know better than that."

"What's this about a fight girls?" Luna looked at the girls strangely.

"Well, there's this girl name Tea and that twit…" Rei clenched her fist. "That twit ran into my car just today after school."

"It's true." Ami chirped up.

"Can't you guys just settle this in a peaceful way?" Luna tilted her head to the side. "You know, like let Tea pay for the damages or…I don't know just make it up."

"No," Rei stood up, her fist tightened. "The challenge has been made. We are to fight Tea and her scrawny tag team tomorrow."

"I hate to ask," Artemis hopped onto the table. "But who is on Tea's team."

"Well, there's that faggot Ryou's boyfriend…" Rei started off.

"Rei," Ami glared at her friend. "Girl, that's enough. Ryou isn't really a gay lord anyway. I don't know how the hell we came up with that rumor."

Rei pouted. "Fine. There's his shadow," she emphasized on the word shadow towards Ami. "Forgot his name. Oh yeah, it's Bakura. Then there's her boyfriend, which his name is kinda hard to pronounce. And then there's that witchy-bitchy Mai Valentine and Marik."

"Chibi-chibi." Everyone looked towards Chibi-Chibi, confused.

"Chibi-chibi?" Minako crawled towards the red-haired girl, looking at her strangely. "What's wrong?"

"Chibi-chibi." She then made her way towards the light switch, switching the lights on and off.

"Hey!" Rei got up, running towards the little girl. "Chibi-chibi," she scooped her up, ruffling her hair playfully. "What do you think you're doing? The lights are working." Smiling, she then carried her back towards the group.

"Iya," Chibi-Chibi's little hands tried to reach for the light switch. "Chibi, chibi chibi, chibi chibi."

"Maybe she's trying to tell us something." Makoto looked at Chibi-chibi."

"Maybe." Rei sat down, sitting Chibi-Chibi on her lap.

"So what do we do?" Usagi laid on the floor. "If we have to fight Tea's team, and I heard one of them is a real freaky guy, then we have no choice but to appear as the sailor scouts."

"Are you willing to risk it all?" Luna asked in a worried tone. "What if everyone finds out that you girls are the sailor scouts?"

"I'm not so sure." Rei looked out the window. "I'm willing to go through the fight. I will not back out."

"Tea, I still have see no reason why you decided to include me." Marik smirked as he twirled his millennium rod like a baton.

 Tea, Yami, Yugi, Marik, Namu, Ryou, Bakura and Mai gathered around Yugi's game shop that night. Ryou and Yugi were playing duel monsters at one side of the shop.

 "Of course you should have not picked him." Bakura glanced up at Marik. "Because you know that Marik is going to cause huge chaos with his stupid millennium rod."

"You heard the young lady," Marik sat down on the counter. "Anything goes. Free for all."

"Hey, hey, hey." Yugi's grandpa entered the store, making his way towards Marik, pointing his finger at him. "Marik, if I told you once, I'd tell you a thousand times. You cannot, I repeat, you cannot sit on the counter like the last time. Do you have any idea how much it costs to have that one of a kind counter fixed?"

Marik just sat there, smirking as he pointed his millennium rod towards Yugi's grandpa. Yugi's grandpa stopped in place once he saw the millennium rod.

"Marik you idiot."

"That's right. You don't want to mess with yours truly." Marik placed his millennium rod on the side.

"So what should we do with Usagi and her comrades?" Bakura looked over the Egyptian cards that were locked in the counter.

"Kick her ass, that's what!" Mai raised her finger in the air.

"What's this about?" Yugi's grandpa crossed his arms over his chest.

"Well," Yami glanced at Solomon. "Me, Bakura, Marik, Mai, and Tea have this little wrestling match coming up tomorrow at the high school gym against a few people from our school."

"Isn't it obvious that you guys will win?" Yugi's grandpa smiled.

"What makes you say that?" Mai looked up at him skeptically.

"Well, half of your team has an ancient past. I mean, Yami is the pharaoh, Bakura is a thief…"

"Hey!" Bakura glared at Solomon.

"And Marik is…well…actually I don't know."

"And it's going to stay that way." Marik laughed softly.

"Time enough for that." The door opened as Joey and Tristan stepped in, their faces bruised and beaten.

"I see Kaiba has taken care of his tab." Mai grinned, watching the two stumbling in.

"Knock it off." Joey breathed heavily as the two sat at the nearest table.

"It's a good thing Yugi's gramps turned this place from a game shop to a game shop and a café." Tristan rested his head on the wall.

Kaiba and Mokuba entered the shop with Mokuba. He looked down at Joey and Tristan, smirking. "Well, at least next time, you would stop leaving me to pay for your own food."

"Yes Mr. Kaiba." Joey and Tristan muttered.

"Good, now for your punishment." Kaiba smirked.

"Oh no, not more punishment." The two groaned.

"Oh yes. Mokuba, bring in the suits." The grin never left his face. Mokuba stepped outside for a moment. Minutes later, he came back with cheerleading outfits.

"This is for tomorrow." Mokuba grinned from ear to ear.

"What?!?" Joey and Tristan gazed in shock.

"Hey," Tea looked over the blue halter-tops and mini skirts. "Isn't this Jounji Academy's cheerleading outfit?"

Kaiba laughed softly. "You couldn't be more correct Tea. I figure since I treated the boys to dinner at McDonalds, they could return the favor by putting on a little show for tomorrow's match."

"Way to go Kaiba, woo-hoo." Mai and Mokuba cheered.

"Yugi, back us up pal." Joey gave a pleaded look to Yugi.

Yugi and Tea glanced at the two before turning around, whistling as if they didn't hear him.

"That's dirts you two." Tristan glared at Yugi and Tea.

"I would prefer you would give Joey and Tristan a set of pom-poms and a makeover." Namu grinned. "I figure they would make great showgirls."

"Great idea!" Mai smiled, facing Joey and Tristan. "I could help you guys with your makeup and your hair. Oh! This is going to be so much fun!"

"If I didn't know better," Marik smiled. "I would say this match would turn out much more interesting than I thought."

Suddenly, a scream startled all of them as Yugi jumped up and down. "Yes!! Yes I won! Hahaha I beat your sorry ass once again Ryou with my Dark Magician!" he continued jumping up and down.

"Damn it!" Ryou slammed the Red Eyes Black Dragon card on the table. "Even after stealing Joey's card I still lost."

"Wait a minute!" Joey turned to Ryou. "You stole my Red Eyes card?" he then got up, making his way towards Ryou. Ryou jumped up and started to run out of the shop.

"It's my card now Wheeler." He yelled out.

"Come back with my card you ding dong!" Joey chased after him.
