Once again, I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! or any such relations. Only little
Sarah belongs to me. Please note there may be violence in this chapter.
"Well, do you think the plan will work?" Joey asked as he and his five friends walked out of The Jam.
"Totally! He'll love it! We'll just have to wait until he gets back from visiting his great-grandmother in the country," Yugi said, quite pleased with their little scheme.
Tea slipped a little closer to Yami. She was just reaching to "accidentally" brush against his hand when she was interrupted by an outburst of giggles. Yami looked around to see who it was and found Tea lurking very close to him. He self-consciously scooted away and spotted the gigglers. (is that a word?!)
Ryou was holding the door open as Sarah walked through and they walked alongside each other laughing. "Yes, I saw that episode too. I love it when Drew teases Ryan!" Ryou was saying.
"Well now, don't they look positively giddy?" Yami smirked. Joey and Yugi elapsed into a fit of giggles as well.
"What exactly is so funny?" Ryou demanded, far from the happy boy he was a second ago.
The boys shut up and walked along the sidewalk stiffly. Tea and Sarah shrugged and followed, Ryou tailing them.
"Well, if it isn't my pathetic other self," came an annoying voice. The crowd looked ahead of them and saw Bakura walking towards them, one hand on his hip, the other throwing a leather jacket over his shoulder. Marik was walking closely behind him, sporting the same I'm-better-than-you- are air.
Ryou went pale. Why now?!?! he thought miserably. Not in front of Sarah!
"Bakura," Yami greeted coldly, folding his arms in front of his chest.
"Pharaoh," Bakura sniffed back. "I see you're still hanging out with the dogs," he said, glaring at Joey.
"You take that back, you white porcupine!!!" Joey screeched and lunged at him. Yugi and Tea held him back by his arms.
"Why don't you just buzz off, Bakura. You cause nothing but trouble," Yugi said.
"I can't help it," Bakura said, putting a hand to his forehead dramatically. "Trouble just seems to follow me wherever I go!" Marik snickered beside him.
Ryou grabbed Sarah's arm and whispered, "Let's go. You don't want anything to do with these guys." He tried to push past them, but Bakura stepped in front of him and propped his hand on the wall, blocking Ryou. "Hold on a minute. Aren't you going to introduce me to your new friend?" Bakura asked in a high voice. He gave Ryou a look that said Utter Embarrassment Awaits You.
"Leave me alone, Bakura." Ryou slapped his arm away and trudged forward, Sarah dragging along behind him.
"Hey, wait a minute! You're being very rude!" Marik called, grabbing Sarah's free arm. "You won't even introduce us to your cute little friend!" He gave Sarah a wink. She began to blush and pull away from him.
"Let her go, Marik," Ryou commanded calmly. He wasn't going to be made a fool of this time. Not in front of Sarah.
"You're being nothing but a bully!" Tea said, putting her hands on her hips and getting up in Marik's face.
"Him? A bully? Why Tea, why would you ever think that?" Bakura said, putting on his annoyingly fake sweet, high voice again. He walked up behind Ryou and kicked his leg, causing his shorter mirror image to fall flat on his face and clutch his leg. Bakura laughed and threw his jacket in Ryou's face. "You always were a weakling." He turned to Marik, who still had Sarah's arm.
She was looking quite terrified. She tried to reach down to help Ryou, but Marik kept a tight grip on her. The others, however, ran to his side.
"You ok?!" Joey asked. Bakura nodded and gritted his teeth. Joey stood up and punched Bakura in the face, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Marik lept forward at this, unknowingly releasing Sarah's arm. He jabbed Joey in the stomach with his fist and kicked his knees. Yami ran forward and elbowed Marik in the shoulder, only to be elbowed in the back by Bakura, who had gotten to his feet.
Yugi tried to defend his friend, but Bakura simply grabbed his shoulders and shoved him to the ground. (poor Yugi...he's so short!)
Sarah screamed at this point and quickly grabbed Tea's purse and smacked Bakura across the back of the head as hard as she could. He let out a yell of pain and grabbed his head. "YOU LITTLE WITCH!!!" he roared.
Yami jumped in front of Sarah just in time to receive a powerful blow to the head and fell to the ground and didn't get back up. Tea screeched and ran to him.
Joey and Ryou got up and grabbed Yami's hands and feet and took off down the street. Tea and Sarah ran after them, casting horrified glances behind them as they sprinted.
Yami awoke, feeling woosey, feeling very cold around his head. He opened his eyes and found there was a bag of ice on his face. "What in the name of Charles Dickens happened?!" he asked.
Tea looked like she had a boulder lifted off her back. "Bakura hit you over the head, and you hit the ground pretty hard, and passed out. Dirty little scumbag..." she whispered.
Yami saw Joey sitting in an armchair, wincing as Tea wrapped bandages around his ribs. He saw Ryou lying on the sofa, Sarah carefully icing his already bandaged leg. "Does he...always do things like this to you?" she asked apprehensively.
Ryou nodded. "Sometimes. Mostly he just calls me names and embarrasses me in front of large crowds of people." Sarah gave him a sad, apologetic look and leaned over and gave him a hug.
Yami heard the toilet flush and Yugi walked into the room. "Oh, glad you're ok. I was getting pretty worried," he said.
"What happened to you?" he asked.
"I got a bruise where my shoulder hit the sidewalk. I escaped without much damage," he said, plopping down on a stool.
"This has got to stop!" Joey yelled, slamming his fist on the armrest. "Ever since Bakura and Marik got to be good friends, they've been acting like they ruled the entire world!"
"Which is technically what they want to do," Tea reminded him.
Sarah looked politely lost. "I feel kind of responsible for what happened. They were only using me to get on your nerves, Ryou. I'm sorry."
"No! It's not your fault at all! I'm just glad you didn't get hurt." Ryou shot Yami a grateful glance and sat back on the sofa. They all eventually lapsed into silence and Ryou, Joey, Yugi, and Yami took a long nap. The girls went upstairs into Tea's room and chatted for a while, then drifted off to sleep themselves.
A/N: In case anyone was wondering or noticed, the show Sarah and Ryou were talking about was "Who's Line Is It Anyway?" I LOVE that show!!! It's so hilarious!
"Well, do you think the plan will work?" Joey asked as he and his five friends walked out of The Jam.
