Keaira: Yippee! I finally got around to writing a Yu-Gi-Oh fic! SSSSSSSSSSSSSSQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yami: Why do you have to torture Bakura and I?

Keaira: 'Cause I must. Anyway, I don't in any way own Yu-Gi-Oh. If I did Yami, Kaiba, Bakura, and Mokuba would be dead, and Rebecca, Yugi(FRUIT!), Ryou(FRUIT!), Pegsie(^_^), and 'Grampa' would die horrific deaths.

Bakura: Hey, you're not as bad as I thought.

Keaira: Thank you! Oh, with the fic!

**************************************************************************
*~Yami's 'Journal'~*
Why must the world torture me so? And whoever said hikaris were good guys? When in truth they're evil in there own sneaky ways. Why must I be tortured so?
Yuugi and Ryou have decided that Bakura and I must learn about how the modern world works. Why should I care how the modern world works?! All I care about is Duel Monsters and all Bakura cares about is getting all the Millenium Items and taking over the world. Which we ALL know he CAN'T do........wait.......that qualifies us as pathetic......doesn't it?
All I know is I don't WANT to learn about the stupid modern world!
Oh, well, at least they're not making us do anything embarassing.......

*~Bakura's 'Journal'~*
I hate Ryou. I've ALWAYS hated Ryou, but now more than ever. He's making me learn about the 'modern world'. Like I care. It's not like it'll help me steal more Millenium Items!!!! He. Is. A. Fruit.
And not ONLY is he making me go through this horrible torture, but I'm not going through this embarassment alone, drat it. I have to learn about this stupid era in time with that wretched Pharaoh!
There's only one person, er, scratch that, two people I hate more than Ryou, and that's Yuugi(he's even more of a fruit than Ryou.), and Yami Yuugi.(stupid Pharaoh, no, wait, I REFUSE to capitalize it! stupid pharaoh. There, much better.) May Anubis curse their ka.
I'll have to torture Ryou later. Maybe I'll whip him. No! Wait! I'll sing 'Rockafeller Skank' over and over and over and over again in his head. Bwahahahaha! Ryou HATES that song!

LESSON #1 :Modern Governments.(Strange place to begin, ne?)

Yuugi: Come *on*, Yami!

Yami: Where are we going?

Yuugi: We're going to Ryou's house for Bakura and your lessons.

Yami: You're cruel, you know that? Ma'at frowns upon your actions.

Yuugi: Um, frankly, Yami, I don't really care.

Yami: May Anubis curse your ka.

Yuugi: My WHAT?!?!

Yami: Your ka. May Seth destroy your......er......something, you son of Ahknaton.

Yuugi: Who and who?

Yami: May Bast forget your household.

Yuugi: Huh? Who's that? Never met the person.

Yami: You foolish mortal. May Osiris doom your vegetable garden.

Yuugi: NO! ANYTHING BUT MY VEGETABLE GARDEN!!!!! Wait, I don't have a vegetable garden.

Yami: *unfazed by outburst* May Ptah bring failure to your game shop.

Yuugi: Hey! I don't know who this 'Ptah' guy is, but he better stay away from my game shop or I'll, er, I'll - I know! I won't give him ANY discounts!

Yami: *ignoring Yuugi* May Ra darken your days.

Yuugi: You're a meanie.

Yami: You're a fruit. May Setek ravage through your food supply and leave you starving.

Yuugi: *sighs* Would you stop it already? I don't care about these people you keep mentioning anyway.

Yami: May Min make all the trees around the game shop wither and not grow back.

Yuugi: We don't have any trees around the game shop.

Yami: May Ma'at bring unfair situations your way.

Yuugi: Your attitude stinks, you know that?

Yami: May Horus strengthen me against you.

Yuugi: Is Horus some friend you had in ancient times?

Yami: May Thoth neglect you and in doing so, make you stupid.

Yuugi: That's not very nice.

Yami: May Sekhmet make you weak.

Yuugi: You're not gonna stop til we get there, are you?

Yami: May Isis never heal your wounds.

Yuugi: Never say never! *giggle* (He's such a fruit.) Hey, we're here! Now you'll stop!

Yami: Hey! I'm not done yet! May Hathor bring you misery instead of joy. Okay, now I'm done.

(Ryou opens his door and let's Yuugi and Yami in.)

Ryou: Let me guess, has your Yami been asking strange people to curse you?

Yami: I'm not his. I'm my OWN person!

Yuugi: *ignores him* That's right, Ryou, how'd you know?

(Bakura walks in to where they are.)

Ryou: My Yami's been doing the same thing.

Bakura: WHO SAID YOU OWNED ME?!?!?!?!?!?! YOU FRUIT!!!!!!

Ryou: *ignores him* Except I'm sure my yami's threats were much worse.

Yuugi: Nu-uh! Yami wanted some dude named 'Osiris' to doom my VEGETABLE GARDEN!!!!!! CAN YOU IMAGE?!?!?!?!?! THE HORROR!!!! THE HORROR!!!!!

Yami: O_O!

Bakura: O_O!

Ryou: -_-() Um, Yuugi........you don't HAVE a vegetable garden.

Yuugi: *pauses* Oh, yeah. ^__________^

(He and Ryou giggle. Yami and Bakura shudder.)

Ryou: Let's go into the living room.

(They walk into the living room and Yami and Bakura stand as far away from each other as possible. All the while glaring at each other.)

Yuugi: Now Ryou and I made a list of modern things we want to teach you.

Ryou: **takes out a piece of paper** First on the list is the governments of this era.

(Ryou gets out a chalkboard and sets it in front of Yami and Bakura.)

Yuugi: Come on, you two, we can't teach you if you're across the room from each other.

(Yami and Bakura glare at Ryou and Yuugi before reluctantly moving towards each other and sitting in the chairs Ryou had set out for them.)

Ryou: We'll start with Japan's system of government.

(Ryou and Yuugi began explaining Japanese government and wrote various things on the chalk board. Ryou had handed Yami and Bakura paper and pencils and he and Yuugi ordered them to take notes.)

Yami: Why does this papyrus have lines on it?

Bakura: And what is this odd.........stick....thing?

Yami: How do you expect me to write without a brush and paints?

Bakura: Why can't we just call in a scribe?

Ryou: -_-()

Yuugi: -_-()

Ryou: It seems we have our work cut out for us.

Yuugi: Maybe we should have started with reading and writing.

(Yuugi and Ryou explained why the 'papyrus' had lines on it and what the 'stick-thing' was for. They finally finished explaining Japanese government and asked to see their notes.)

Yuugi: Um, Yami?

Yami and Bakura: What?

Yuugi: Er...

Ryou: I guess we'll call my yami 'Bakura' and yours 'Yami'.

Yuugi: Well, Yami, uh, why did you draw pictures?

Yami: Can't you regonize heiroglyphs when you see them, boy?

Yuugi: Oh.

(He turned the paper sideways and saw that the hieroglyphs were going up and down rather than side to side.)

Yuugi: Why'd you write them up and down?

Yami: How else would I write them?

Yuugi: Well-

Yami: Are you accusing me of not having a good education?!?! I'll have you know I WAS TAUGHT BY THE GREATEST SCRIBE IN ALL OF EGYPT!!!!

Yuugi: I didn't say anything like that, Yami.

(Yuugi backed away from the angry Pharaoh.)

Bakura: Ha ha! Your Hikari called you an idiot!

Yami: Shut up, tomb robber!

Bakura: Make me, brat-faced pharaoh!

Yami: Okay!

(Ryou and Yuugi grabbed Yami before he tackled Bakura.)

Ryou: Let's see your notes, yam- I mean, Bakura.

(Bakura gave Ryou his notes and Ryou found they were like Yami's only a bit messier, and there were pictures around the edges that WEREN'T heiroglyphs.)

Ryou: Is that me and Yuugi?!

Bakura: **smirks and nodds**

Yuugi: What is it?

Ryou: Bakura drew pictures of us dying horrible deaths.

(Yami smorts in laughter, while Yuugi looks heart-broken.)

Bakura: Aw, did I make the little fruit cry?

Yuugi: *sniff, sniff*

Yami: Hey, stop making fun of him and teasing him!.......That's my job.

Yuugi: *sobs*

Ryou: You two are cruel! You now have two more hours added to how long you have to learn!

(Yami and Bakura glare at Ryou, but don't say anything. Ryou gets Yuugi to stop crying and they move on to other governments.)

Keaira: ^_^

Bakura: I agree with Pharaoh-boy.

Keaira: Aw, I KNOW you don't really mean that!

Bakura: Gr. You're mental, woman!

Yami: Ra help you.

Keaira: ^_^ Hey, at least you didn't ask Anubis to curse my ka! ^_^ Please review!
