Chapter 4: Plays, Fights, Flights, and Asses
Firefrost: (Pokes head into room of fuming fans) Uh, hi...!
Fans: (Pelt Firefrost with random vegetables and fruits)
Firefrost: ;_; (Tears pouring) I'm soooorrrryyyyyy!!!!!
Marik: (Walks out with Malik and B) You're pathetic!
Firefrost: Grr...
Bakura: Serves you right for making them wait so long for the next chapter!
Malik: *tsk tsk* (Waggles his finger at Firefrost) Bow your head in shame.
Firefrost: (Bows her head and whimpers to herself)
Marik: As I said: pathetic.
Anzu: (Pops out of nowhere and giggles, delighting M, M, and B) Next chappie!!! Enjoy, R&R, you know the disclaimer!
Malik: Aw! She did everything so we wouldn't have to! ^_^
Anzu: ^_^ ^_~
M, M, B: (Melt) So cute...! (Huggle Anzu all at once)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Bakura steps onto the stage, with fake trees around him. He is in the forest.
Bakura: (Frowns) This isn't me...
Firefrost (backstage): Just do it, albino.
Bakura: (Death glare) You're lucky, FF.
Firefrost: (Raises eyebrow suspiciously) Why?
Bakura: Because I don't believe in hitting girls, (Looks out at fans) especially pretty fan girls! ^_~ Hey, Lauren! (Blows a little flirty kiss)
(A/N: Just for you, Laurel and Lauren! ^_^ )
Firefrost: (Scowls) Anyways!
Bakura: When I'm ready, woman!!! (Clears throat just as Mokuba, Otogi, Honda, and Rebecca enter) WHERE HAVE YOU ASSES BEEN?!!!!
Honda: Relax, Bakura. We're here now.
Bakura: Shut up, mortal! The horrible authoress was going to make me dress up like a girl to do our play by myself if you didn't show up!!
Rebecca: (Jumps to the sanity of Firefrost's rescue) Greetings, dear friend! The moon is rising. Let us commence our work, lest we be late to know our play for our dear Duke Seto's wedding, for we had no practice this last noon after.
Bakura: (Pouts) That's because none of you imbeciles showed up.
Rehearsal for the play of Mokuba and Rebecca commences, and no one can get it right.
Mokuba: See, a crack mars even the strongest of walls. Come, friendly mar, let me find thee, that I might look upon my beloved Rebecca, across your barrier! (Loses focus) I don't get it! What's Mars got to do with a stone wall?!
Otogi: Not Mars, the planet! Mars as in to mar or damage something! A crack in a wall is damage to the wall.
Mokuba: O.o Oh.
Above their heads, in a tree, Yugi sits watching the mortals. Mai, who is in the Mother Tree, remains asleep.
Yugi: (Giggles) Delightful! The one they call Bakura shall match heads with that of the animal he most represents!
Yugi waves his hand, sparkles fly out, and a terrified scream is heard from below.
Marik (backstage): (Laughing his head off) How did you do that without dropping a mask on him, FF?!?! He's got the head of an ass!!
(A/N: #1: Sorry, Lauren, it's in the play! #2: Ass = a close relation to the donkey; ass x donkey = mule offspring)
Firefrost: Theatre NEVER reveals its disturbing secrets, Marik! Kinda like you. (Smirks)
Marik: You know, I take that as a compliment. I'm evil, remember.
Firefrost: I... Damn.
Bakura: (Watches as Rebecca, Mokuba, Otogi, and Honda run offstage and out of the theatre) Come back, you idiots!!! It's just a trick!!!
Malik (backstage): (Whispers to Anzu) I don't think they read that part of the script.
Mai opens her eyes and looks down at where the commotion is coming from. She holds her breath when she sees Bakura. The love flower's dew takes effect.
Mai: Oh, rapture!! (Gracefully leaps from the tree and lands by a surprised Bakura) Greetings, my beloved!
Bakura: O______O Pardon me, madam, but I do not know you!
Mai: Be not so frightened, my gentle one! With thine long, pretty ears. Thine fuzzy face and strong front teeth! Thou art beautiful in all accounts!
(A/N: Remember, our poor Bakura's got the face of an ass. Long ears, big 'hick' teeth, and hair. Also, Bakura's character doesn't know he's an ass yet)
Bakura: o_O Dear madam, I know not of what you speak! I am no more hair, long-eared, or toothy than any other man. My friends that ran must being trying to worry me of my looks.
Bakura fan girls: YOU'RE SO SEXY AND GOOD-LOOKING, BAKURA!!!!!
Bakura: ~_^ ^_~ Pretty women know pretty men when they see them!!
Fan girls: oooohhhhhh!!!! (pass out)
Marik (backstage): I could do better.
Malik: Me too.
Yami: Me three.
M & M: Shut up, Pharoah!!
Yami: *whimper*
Mai: Come, sweet... um.
Bakura: Bakura.
Mai: Come, sweet Bakura. Join me and my fairies, that we might entreat you to all we can offer!
Jounouchi: (Glares) Don't you be entreated TOO much, Bakura!
Mai giggles and walks with Bakura offstage. Yugi disappears from the tree. The curtain goes down as he runs off to tell his king of the creature that Mai has woken to and fallen in love with. The curtain rises a few moments later to Anzu, still sleeping alone on the ground. Jounouchi and Yugi are sitting (again) in a tree above. The night is growing older.
Anzu: (Sits up and yawns sweetly) ^_^
M, M, B & Y: Awww! ^_^
Anzu: (Snaps to herself and stands in shock) What! Marik? Marik, my dearest, where hast thou gone?! Pray you, can you hear me?! Oh, where are you!
Yami walks on stage.
Anzu: (Gasps) You!!! Snake!! Evil thing beyond compare!!!
Yami: (Walks forward) My fair Anzu, what means this? Be not so fretful. Be jubilant that your loving husband has come for thee!
Anzu: Husband? Never! Thou art a hessian above all else! I scoff at you, and at your 'lovingness!' You do so mean betrayal instead!! Where be my Marik?! How, pray tell, wicked Yami, did you undo my love?!! What hideous weapon was the seed to his destruction?! The sword upon his throat did you claim? Or was it your own brutal hands that wrapped his gentle neck and did squeeze life and breath from him?!! Speak, devil!! Speak!!
Yami: Dear Anzu, I did no such thing! I did here come, with Shizuka in pursuit; and I did too leave her lost. I wandered nigh two hours, looking for my Anzu. And now, I have found thee! Since Shizuka, none have I seen but you.
Jounouchi glares at Yugi.
Jounouchi: (Whispers) Fool! I spoke to dab the juice upon the eyes of the mortal Yami, and here he stands un-charmed!!
Yugi: (Whispers back) My Lord, I swear I did so anoint a mortal man, but not he who stand there! Thou said I would know him by his Athenian clothes. And I did.
Jounouchi: (Gasps and whispers) Then, there be two Athenian men and women about to-night! And thou did charm the wrong man. This Yami must stand now with the maid that the mortal Shizuka spoke and named Anzu. Thus, this other man did see some other creature when he woke from beside Anzu, and did leave her under the love spell!
The two fairies lose focus from the argument below.
Anzu: Leave me be, cruel murderer! I trust you not!! Leave me to my misery, and slip into the shadows and darkness of Hell!! May it scorch your soul to the core!!!
Yami: (Calling as Anzu disappears offstage) I swear, Anzu, I am no murderer!!! (Looks about angrily) What time of month be it with her?! ... not the right one, say I.
Firefrost: I DIDN'T HAVE THAT IN THE SCRIPT!!!
Yami: At least I made it blend in with the script!!
M & M: (Huddled in fetal position with ears covered) We don't want to hear! We don't want to hear!
Anzu & Shizuka: (Walk over to M & M) *giggle* Period.
M & M: AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Evil thing, evil thing!!
Anzu: It's not as bad as PMS.
Shizuka: I get so cranky then! ^_^
Anzu: Me too! ^_^
M, M, B, Y, Yugi, and Jou: Eeeeewwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!
Anzu, Shizuka, Mai, and Firefrost: Shut up! You have wet dreams more than we have periods and PMS!!
Boys: O__________O They've caught on to us...
Girls: ^_____________^ We win!!
Firefrost: Anyway, let's continue.
Yami: (Looks up at theatre ceiling) It's late. I must rest a short while. (Lays down) Just... a little... nap... (Falls asleep)
Jounouchi: Yugi, you and I shall FIX your mess! Go now and bring to this place the maid Shizuka. Not Anzu! Leave all else to me.
Yugi: Aye, Lord. (Pulled up by strings again, by Bakura and MALIK)
Jounouchi: (climbs down tree and carries love flower to sleeping Yami) Now, mortal, shall you wake to the sight of your Shizuka. No Anzu for Yami, Shizuka's the fairer. May your eyes see none but her with romance and passion. (Dabs Yami's eyes with the petals, and then he vanishes into thin air)
The curtain falls.
Marik: (Jaw agape) Tell me how you DO that!!!!! (A/N: He means how I make stuff happen, like disappearing and the ass's head suddenly appearing)
Firefrost: *giggle* No. ^_^
Marik: (Follows Firefrost and the rest out of the theatre) Come on!
Firefrost: No. ^_^
Marik: I promise not to kill you till after you tell me! ^_^
Firefrost: No. ^_^
Yami: Are they gonna do this all the way home?
Yugi: Yup. ^_^
Yami: They sound like they've got nothing better to do!
Yugi: Yup. ^_^
Yami: Could you stop that already, please?!
Yugi: Yup. ^_^
Yami: Argh!!!

A thousand pardons for not updating for a while!!! School's been keeping me busy. Thank you all for reviewing and enjoying! ^_^ I'm sorry to see that Rabidmoose doesn't like it, but oh well: can't please everyone.
I'd especially like to thank: Kaz for reviewing at each chapter (very gracious of you to take the time ^_^), Blackbelt (I've read some of you're work and it's wonderful!), Bakura-is-mine, and Yaoi-Rated (your comments made me so full of myself and happy I feared I was gonna burst!)
Also, don't be frightened if I take time updating. THIS STORY WILL BE FINISHED, GUARANTEED!!!! Read my bio to understand, even though I'm being a little hypocritical of it right now, but oh well.
Anyways, gonna go now (got more work to do on other writings). Another chapter should (hopefully) be up no later than two weeks from now.
Your humble authoress, Firefrost.
