Chapter Three: Magical Mayhem.

***********************

"Jou! Oi! Jonouchi, wake up, ya lazy bum!" Honda called over to the sleeping blonde. Jou had fallen asleep at his desk AGAIN!

"Jou-kun! C'mon, hurry or we'll be late!" Yuugi agreed.

"Huh…?" Jou blinked sleepily, from where he had fallen asleep with his head cradled in his arms. "Late for what…?"

"The soccer game, of course!" Anzu laughed. "Don't tell me you forgot already!"

"Soccer…?" The blonde blinked. 'Oh yeah! That's right,' he thought. 'We were gonna go play soccer after school wit da team…'

"Hey, still daydreaming?" Otogi teased, coming around from behind and grabbing him in a headlock.

"Oooi!" Jou growled, squirming out of his grip. "I'm awake, I'm awake!" he grumbled, sitting up and stretching his arms.

"Hurry up, Jou-kun!" Yuugi smiled. "Ojiisan got a new shipment of cards in today, as well! We can go look after the game!"

"Hai, hai! Just lemme get my bag-" Jou yelped when he accidentally picked it up upside down, spilling his duel monsters' deck all over the floor. "Ack!" he winced.

"Man, you're such a klutz, Jou!" Honda grinned as he bent down with the blonde and helped him pick up all of the cards.

"Oh be quite," he grumbled. It wasn't his fault he was a--he tripped over a table leg, falling to the floor--klutz.

"Smooth move, Jou!" Honda laughed.

"Oh shut it," he grumbled.

"Don't be mad, Jou!" Anzu smiled. "We'll help you pick it all up, don't worry." Jou smiled.

"Heh, thanks, Anz." They all worked together, picking the best cards for his deck as they went along, until they handed it to him.

"Here Jou!" Yuugi smiled. "With his deck you'll be unbeatable!"

Sugoi! Thanks!" Jou grinned as he browsed through the cards, pocketing it a moment later.

"C'mon let's go!" Otogi said. "We'll be late if we don't leave now."

"Yeah!" They nodded.

"Huh? Hey, come on, Jou," Anzu said, blinking back at the blonde still sitting on the floor. "Aren't you coming?"

"Yeah, I would," he nodded. "But I can't seem to move my legs at all."

****

"There will now be a five-minute countdown!" Isono announced. "The first duellist to stand up will be declared the winner; if neither duellist stands by that time, they are both disqualified."

"Jou-kun…" Yami Yuugi gripped his fists tightly, ignoring the rain that continued to pour down from the thick clouds. Rain poured down on both the unconscious figures of 'Malik' and Katsu, drenching them.

Everyone looked anxiously at the duel. Who would stand first…? Well, Kaiba didn't look too worried. Unfortunately, it was a mask. In truth, he was worried sick, despite his apathetic façade.

'Tch, why should I worry? The dumb mutt will stand up any minute,' he thought with a scowl. Of course, the minutes were dragging on, and neither duellist was standing.

****

"What? Are you kidding us?" Honda blinked.

"Nah, seriously, I can't move 'em. Can get a hand here guys?" he asked, looking up at them. He was slightly surprised when one suddenly replaced his friends, standing figure. He recognised him immediately, blinking in confusion. "Kaiba…?"

He gave a warm, half-smile, holding out his hand for him. "Here, take my hand," he murmured softly. Jou blushed lightly, pulling himself up and blinking when Kaiba encircled his arms around him, holding him close.

"K-Kaiba…?" He blushed again, looking up at the teen. "What are you…"

Kaiba chuckled lightly, kissing his lips lightly. "It's time to wake up, pup," he said gently.

****

"Huh…?" Katsu blinked she was suddenly standing on the duel field, rain pouring down on her. The lightning had stopped…

"Jonouchi Katsuya is the winner as his…er…opponent has failed to stand up in the allot time frame!" Isono faltered slightly, unsure whether to call Katsu a boy or girl.

"Huh? I win?" she blinked. The duel field was lowered, and her friends rushed over immediately with cries of worry and congratulations.

Kaiba let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding, watching the red head and her friends as they fussed over her, laughing and asking if she was okay. His emotion remained neutral as the rain slowly dissipated, and left only the wet duel field in its wake.

"Guys, really, I'm fine!" Katsu assured them with a grin.

"But you were struck with lightning!" Mai protested. "We thought you'd died!"

"I'm fine!" she laughed, waving a hand and rubbing the back of her head as she cast a wayward glance at Kaiba. "…" A light, soft blush stole across her face as she recalled her dream, and the kiss.

"Hey, shouldn't that guy be getting medical attention…?" Otogi asked.
"You're right!" They rushed over to the fallen impostor.

"Hey, dude, are ya okay?" Katsu asked as she shook his shoulders gently. Rishid let his eyes crack open, his voice strained as he spoke.

"I failed… Master Malik, please forgive me…" He black out not long after that.

"So he really wasn't Malik…" Katsu murmured.

"But if he isn't…" Eyes went to Namu, where they widened in surprise. His who appearance had been altered. His hair stood straight up, and he look about fives times as psychotic as he had been previously.

"Heh, heh, heh…" he chuckled darkly, a possessed look about him as the Sennen Eye shone brightly on his forehead. (Not the actual Sennen Eye, but the glowing one).

"Hey, what's wit dat guy??" Katsu asked, frowning from where she had Rishid's head in her lap. Malik grinned evilly, licking his lips.

"I must say I'm impressed you saw through my disguise. But you are only half-correct. I am Marik, and I have taken possession of that weak fool, Malik. Rishid had managed to keep me dormant for so long… But now that he's unconscious, there is nothing to stop me," he sneered. He outstretched his Sennen Rod, pointing at Mai. "You will be the first victim in this game, my dear."

"I'd like to see you try," she retorted, glaring.

"You can save any fights until the duel!" Isono announced. "The next duel will commence in fifteen minutes!"

****

"Ahhh…" Jou grinned happily as he felt the hot water poured on him change him back into a full-fledged guy again. "Much better!"

"So that's how it works, huh?" Mai asked, tilting her head in amusement. Jou scowled at her.

"Yeah, so?"

"Oh, nothing…" she smirked amusedly. Jou watched her warily, scowling lightly.

"Forgive me if I don' trust ya at all," he muttered.
"Hn. You're forgiven," she smirked bemusedly. There was an unsettled silence between the two for a few moments.

Then…

"Mai…?" Jou asked, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Hai, Jonouchi?" she asked as she looked over.

"Will you…be careful out there? Malik...he…please, just be careful, okay?" he murmured, looking away. Mai blinked slightly, before a soft smile touched her lips.

"I always am, Jonouchi." She smirked gently, tilting his chin up enough to peck his cheek. "I'd worry more about Malik, than me," she smirked at Jou's instant blush. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got a tournament to win. See ya!" she waved, exiting the room.

Jou touched his cheek, looking quite shocked. His dream of Kaiba instantly came to mind right then, but somehow…he didn't enjoy it as much as he did the kiss from his dream… 'Aw hell no! I ain't queer!' he flushed, cheeks a nice scarlet color. 'I didn't like Kaiba kissin' me, now matter how soft and gentle his lips were…no! "Arrgh!! Kaiba, you're screwing up my mind!!" he cried angrily.

"I hardly doubt even *I* could screw up something you don't have," Kaiba smirked from the doorway.

"Yaaah!!" Jou yelped, spinning around and clutching his chest. "Jesus, Kaiba! Wat da hell are ya doin' in here?!"

"Just checking if you really as good as you claim to be." Kaiba said as Jou blinked, looking confused at him. Him? The great Seto Kaiba asking him if he was ok?? He must be dreaming again.

"Why are you worried about me, Kaiba?" asked Jou a little suspicious. Kaiba just smirked as he pinned the young duellist against the wall.

"Kaiba, what the...?!" before Jou could finish his sentence, Kaiba kissed him to silence him.

"Like I said before, mutt, a good master must take good care of his bitch," Seto smirked.

"I'm not your bitch, you asshole!! And you're not my master!!" Jou snapped.

"Whatever, puppy." Kaiba smirked as he left the room. Jou was still blushing and glaring when he was gone.

"Grr.... that jerk. I will show who's the master, Mr Gizmo."

Then, he heard Isono's voice through the phone that the Duel between Marik and Mai would begin in five minutes. He still remembered what that creep did to him and to Rishid and he knew something very bad would happen to Mai in her duel with him. He just hoped nothing bad DID to her.

The group arrived on the field and Marik was already waiting there, grinning, waiting for his victim.

"Mai, be careful with this creep we don't know what he can do," Jou warned. Mai just smiled to him

"Don't worry Jou. I can beat this guy no problem; then, we're going duel on the finals. You still know own me that duel since you defeat me in the duellist kingdom." She said, smirking as Jou blushed.

Unknown to them, Kaiba was glaring at Mai, very jealous. No one noticed that, except Mokuba who just smirked.

"Jealous, big brother?" Mokuba asked and grinning when Kaiba blushed a little.

"Hn. There's no way I could ever care about that dumb mutt," Kaiba snorted.

"Jou is right might. You can't underestimate Marik. Keep you eyes on him and in your cards." Yami called as Marik walked onto the duel field.

"Opponents, shuffle the other's deck." Isono called. Both Mai and Marik walked to the centre and they shuffled the other's deck. They returned to their side of the field.

"Prepare to the Shadow game, my dear." Marik grinned. He got the Sennen Rod as a dark could began to cover the field.

"DUEL!" Mai and Marik shouted.

***

The other gasped as Mai finally could summon the Winged Dragon of Ra after she took the card from Marik's deck thanks to the effect of her amazon monster. But something went wrong, after summoning the Egyptian God. All that had appeared was a huge golden sphere. The other couldn't understand what was going on. Was that sphere the Winged Dragon of Ra?

"You fool, to summon Ra, you need read the ritual words in the card," Marik laughed. She looked at the card and gasped. That wasn't there before!

"Mokuba, make sure you get a reading from the card," Kaiba murmured beside his brother.

"Right!" he nodded, running from the duel.

"Now there's no monster and no magic card to protect your life points, my dear! My monsters can attack you directly!" Marik grinned.

Out of nowhere, a wall with a Sennen Eye appeared behind of Mai as the cuffs in the wall trapped her. They clamped down on her ankles and wrists, preventing her from moving. 'N-nani?! This is only a game!!' she thought with fear. She suddenly arched, crying in anguish as she felt the electric current throughout her body.

"Now my dear, you're going to be a perfect sacrifice for the Egyptian God," Marik smirked as he began to chant in Egyptian.

The sphere began to open, revealing a huge golden dragon with shining red eyes as it roared. It was the Winged Dragon of Ra.

"Now, my beast, attack the rest of her life points and destroy her soul!" Marik ordered with a maniac grin. Ra's eyes shone a deep crimson as it began its attack. Jou was in horror. If Ra attacked Mai directly, she would die! Jou rushed to the field.

"Jou, Come back here!!" Yami shouted desperately. Even Kaiba's eyes widened.

'Is he crazy!?'

"Hey, stop right there or else you will be disqualified!" Isono shouted. Jou didn't listen to him as he rushed to Mai, trying to free her. Ra would attack any second!

"That the hell? Holograms shouldn't be solid!" Jou growled as he struggled to pull the chains from the stone slab.

"Jou, get out! You'll be killed!" Mai shouted. Jou just ignored her, trying even harder..

"I will not let you going through this! You're my friend, Mai, should know that!" He said. Tears rolled down in her face at this. 'Jou…'

Ra let loose his attack. Before anyone could do anything, they gasped in horror what they saw.

Kaiba was on the field, using his backs as a shield to protect Jou and Mai from the attack.

"KAIBA!!" shouted Jou in horror.
