MAI: *tackles Kaiba, sending both of them flying to the ground*

*the club hits the ground with a resounding THUMP one millimeter away from Kaiba's head*

KAIBA: Get off me you fool!

THE NINJA: You're the fool, you foolish fool. The girl just saved your life and this is how you repay her? It's such a shame her efforts were in vain. I have specific orders to kill both you, and the girl, so you two will be dying today anyway.

MAI: *gets off Kaiba and brushes off her clothes* I must express my sincerest apologies, but you won't be killing anyone today, ninja! I'm afraid I simply will not allow it.

THE NINJA: I don't need your permission to kill you.

MAI: Oh yes, you do. You'll kill me and Kaiba only when I say you can.

THE NINJA: *takes out two throwing stars*

MAI: *walks over and kicks the ninja's hands. The throwing stars fly to the ground*

KAIBA: *gets up, grumbles, and looks stupidly at the club and two stars next to him, he mutters to himself:* Hmmm, I can get this ninja to have a taste of his own medicine. I'll just take a star, and throw it at him. Simple.

*seconds later*

KAIBA: OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! The stupid thing has points!

THE NINJA: No duh! It's a throwing star, a weapon used to kill people. What'd you think it was? Those stars people put on top of their Christmas trees?

MAI: I'd be willing to bet a lot he did. I'm having trouble now deciding whether he's an idiotic moron, or a moronic idiot.

THE NINJA: I can see what you mean. But there is no place in this world for stupid people. They all must go someday. So without any further ado. . . . *takes out a short sword from his sash*

KAIBA: *stops licking the blood off his fingers and tries to pick up the club*

THE NINJA: *with sword raised* Maybe I shouldn't kill him. He is a good source of entertainment, and decent comedy is hard to come by these days.

KAIBA: *grunts as he tugs the handle of the club. The attached ball and chain refuse to budge* What's wrong with this thing? It's defective. *talks to the club* Come on, get up. We've got a ninja to kill.

THE NINJA: Oh well. I agreed to take on this job and finish it under all conditions. So, though I regret it dearly, I must kill this man. *gets sword ready to chop off Kaiba's head*

MAI: *walks over to Kaiba and kicks his hands away from the handle. Grabs the handle herself* Let me show you how it's done. *pulls the club which immediately lifts off the ground. She swings it around in a whistling arc above her head before bringing it down on top of the ninja's body, sword and all*

KAIBA: *looks at the bloody mess and regurgitates all the stew he had for dinner on top it, making the dead ninja look even more unsightly*

Well...so...yeah. That's it for this chapter, I know it's pretty short, and I strayed off the topic, totally strayed way off the topic, of the tournament, but I couldn't help it, making Kaiba look like a total idiotic jerk is very fun indeed! Anyways, the next chapter will be up a.s.a.p. (expect it in a few weeks or so).
