Yay! This story's all the way up to 25 reviews!
Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh. I do however own a new Fiend Megacyber card, I named him Fuffykins.
Fuffykins: Grrrrr!
Also because of complaints from a few reviewers, for this chapter Odion will be called his real name of Rashid. The reason that Odion received his English name while all the other characters got their original Japanese names is because he is the only character in the entire series to receive a decent dub name (And also because Rashid and Odion are like two different characters). If you read closely, you'll see that Rashid actually acts more like himself and less like Odion in this chapter.
`
It was a dark and stormy night! No wait, actually it was a clear and sunny morning, how could I ever confuse the two? Oh well, anyways two cloaked figures stood in the utter darkness of midday, and they look to be doing something 'evil', lets go find out what.
Rashid: Good morning to you master Malik.
Malik: Likewise Rashid, are you ready for what is to come?
Rashid: You mean the Battle city finals?
Malik: Yes, but before they begin I have just a few more things that I must teach you.
`
Lesson Nine. No, 4kids will NOT let you do that!
Malik: Rashid, you must take heed of my words for I may never tell you something of as great importance as this.
Rashid: What is it master?
Malik: You must always say or do extremely evil things, and say them at moments where they are integral to the plot.
Rashid: But sir, that's the first thing that I ever learned from you, even before the whole how to make minute rice incident.
Malik: Yes Rashid, I know that you are already aware of this, but please allow me to finish.
Rashid: Yes sir.
Malik: When you say or do these things, an American editor will always jump out of nowhere and edit you in a horrible fashion.
Rashid: How so?
Malik: Well allow me to demonstrate.
*Pulls out a gun. It is edited into Malik pointing his finger.
*Pulls out a knife. It is edited into Malik giving the thumbs up.
*Holds up a bloody piece of meat. It is transformed into a Twinkie?
Rashid: Wow that was different.
Malik: This sort of thing will always happen so you must be prepared for anything, lest you look like an even bigger fool than they have already made you out to be.
Rashid: So you are saying that I must say and do evil things, but then have them edited into me doing things that really aren't all that evil, thereby butchering the entire episode?
Malik: I do believe that you are getting it Rashid, but lets test you to make sure. Alright Rashid I now want you to say "I will kill you Malik!"
Rashid: But why in Ra's name would I ever want to say anything like that?
Malik: You wouldn't, but this is just for the sake of discussion. So make sure you yell it for the editors.
Rashid: Alright, "I will kill you master Malik!"
Suddenly an American editor from 4kids appeared!
American Editor: Tsk, tsk, we can't have any of that.
So that American editor changed what Rashid said.
Rashid: I will Banish you to the shadow realm master Malik!
Malik: See? That's exactly what I mean. And I wont even put you through the whole "Dark Energy discs" torture!
Rashid: I thank you for that sir. Is there any other wisdom that you would like to share with me?
Malik: Now that you mention it, there is one other thing that might be of use to an up and coming Malik like yourself.
`
Lesson Ten. Blood, Sweat, Tears, and more Blood. Wait! That isn't the title!
Malik: Rashid, I really want you to get the full Malik experience from these lessons...
Rashid: That's exactly what you said before you pulled a knife on me.
Malik: Hey it was all in good fun right?
Rashid: Well I did get all those pretty colored band-aids out of the deal...
Malik: Well I think that you could be a much better Malik if you were to experience my childhood.
Rashid: What are you talking about master? I was with you through most of that childhood!
Malik: Yes, but you never got to see life through my eyes.
Rashid: But it's alright, I have videotapes of everything.
Malik: It's just not the same. Oh if only there was some way that you could experience my Malikyness first hand.
Rashid: We could have a flashback!
Malik: No, that wouldn't do. I have motion sickness and you know how at the beginning of every flashback there's that harp music and the wavy lines.
Rashid: I'm sorry, I forgot about that.
Malik: I've got it! If it's the past that you need to see, we can just use my sister's sennen item to do it!
Rashid: Brilliant plan master Malik! But are you sure that she will let us use it? Last I checked she was not very pleased with all the things that we were doing.
Malik: Don't you worry, I have a plan to get her to cooperate.
Rashid: Then let us go to her!
` With that Malik and Rashid walked over to the Domino city natural history museum in search of Ishizu, since the museum is the only place where anybody had ever seen her. Inside the museum, Ishizu can be seen dusting off the ancient tablets and cleaning their display cases.
Malik: Hello there dear sister.
Ishizu: Malik, is that you?
Malik: Yes it is. Oh sister I know that we have had our disagreements in the past, but I just wanted to tell you that I am sorry for what I've done and I love you.
Ishizu: Oh Malik, I've been waiting years for you to say that! I missed you so much. But now that your back we can be a big happy family once again, and then we can.
WHACK!
Malik then interrupted Ishizu's speech by hitting her over the head with the sennen rod!
Malik: I've been waiting to do that for the longest time! Lets do it again!
Rashid: Umm the necklace?
Malik: Oh of course, now we can use the necklace to relive the past. Now put the necklace on and say "I wish I could see the past through Malik's eyes".
Rashid: Alright, I wish I could see the past through Malik's eyes!
Suddenly the world started spinning in Rashid's eyes! When everything had stopped he recognized it as a familiar scene from the past.
Malik: Big sister! Look what I have made for you!
Ishizu: A flower necklace, how beautiful. Thank you Malik.
Malik: Are you going to wear it?
Ishizu: Of course, anything for you little brother.
Malik: It looks really good on you, just look in the mirror.
Ishizu: Thank you for the compliment, I'll go look right now.
As Ishizu was admiring her little brother's handiwork, Malik had grabbed a book of matches. And when Ishizu had her back turned, he lit the necklace on fire!
Ishizu: Ow! Hot! Get it off, get it off!
At this point Ishizu had begun running around in circles, while little Malik was rolling on the ground with laughter.
End flashback.
`
Rashid: You always were the most adorable little kid master Malik.
Malik: Ah I thank you for the flattery Rashid, but it is really not necessary.
Rashid: Alright, but what are we going to do with her? *points at Ishizu who is still lying on the floor drooling.
Malik: Just give her back her necklace and break a few things here, that way she may just think that she tripped and fell.
Rashid: That is a great plan master Malik.
Malik: Yes it is, wait a minute! Are you thinking what I'm thinking Rashid?
Rashid: I think so master Malik, but aren't we already wearing dresses?
Malik: That's not quite what I meant. Wait, We forgot to go register for the Battle city finals!
Rashid: Now what will we do?
Malik: Lets go! If we hurry we may still be able to make it!
So with that the pair ran out of the museum. Malik ran up to somebody on a motorcycle and threw them off, before climbing on and riding towards Kaiba's secret stadium. Rashid then kicked some little kid off of a pogo stick and started hopping after Malik.

Malik: And that concludes chapter three of Malik for a day. Tsuni had wanted to make us signing up for the finals a part of this chapter, but decided to move that part over to the next chapter. Even more hilarity shall ensue then, and for all of you still reading Tsuni will now thank all the reviewers.
Tsuni: Thankies to you all, you must receive presents!
~
Wingleader Sora Jade: Odion thanks you for the support, you get a super cute Odion plushie!
Trustshipper: I'm not quite sure if that would work, but thanks for the suggestion. You get candy!
Tengoku-chan&Yasha-sama: I thank you both for your multiple reviews, since you seem to like Malik so much, here are some of his flower necklaces that he did not destroy.
BakaNeko-Chan: I really don't get it either, you get ........Mentioned! And don't worry, Odion will use his lessons very soon.
BishounenzAngel: Thank you and I shall, yummy candy for you.
Mariksgal4eva: Malik personally thanks you for reading and rewards you by blowing a kiss.
deathsythe: Both Malik and I thank you, you get random Gundam thingies!
Nez: Wow the plot is inspired? I'll just have to give you your very own gang of Rare Hunter ants for such a complement.
Dak: Flattery it seems will get you everywhere, and to prove it you get a trip to the city of Domino.
MarikzAngel: Why of course you can have Malik!
Malik: Hey! I thought that you weren't supposed to give me away to rabid fangirls!
Tsuni: Don't worry, this ones not a 'rabid' fangirl
Malik: Okay.
Kitaiya-Rena: I'm surprised at that too, Odion must have a short attention span or something. Because of your snicker comment earlier, you get Snickers candy bars!
Blackgatomon: Wow you have Rare Hunter ants too? You get little cloaks and duel discs for your Rare Hunters.
Mistress of Marik: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you choke on carrots. Your present will be some carrot juice and a get-well card signed by Malik and Odion.
HonoIKatana: The laugh thing was actually a group effort by Malik. Odion, and me. You get a private Malik lesson!
Maruken: Well Bakura 'does' look just like a small child with an ice cream cone when he's licking the blood off his favorite knife. You get a picture of adorable little Bakura with his knife.
yesim@-flamesofeternaldarkness: I apologize for using the O-word so much, I just thought that he was more of an Odion and less of a Rashid in this fic. I'll just have to give you little chibi Malik and Rashid dolls.
S.A. Bonsai: Thank you very much for your reviews Bonsai-san, you are now my most respected reader and critic. Don't worry, I know that Malik really gets along far better with Rashid in the Japanese anime and manga versions, this fic merely calls for them to have a dub style relationship. That little slip up about Malik's yami should show you that I've only been skimming through the later chapters of the manga and still have much to learn. I shall have to give you a good present, a new fan of you writings, me.
I promise that next time I wont need so much room to show appreciation, and I'll try to get this out of the way at the end of each chapter.
