A/N – Thank you all so much for the reviews! I agree with you all that this story is so cute! It's hard to believe it's turning out so fluffy and cute after what happened at the beginning but this has been my intent all along for this story. You should all see the chapter I wrote where they take a trip to Japan and Marzuq, Malik and Marik all experience snow for the first time. It's so cute but also so hilarious! I was laughing out loud the entire time I wrote it. I don't know what chapter that will be right now. I'll probably post it on the hottest day in July for a cool treat.
Destiny – Yay! Someone recognized the reference to Bob from Queer Yami! (which will be updated as soon) Bob has a lot of family members (Bobby, Bob Sr, Bobrina, Bobs) all who live in a different part of the world and all who are better off then him. Lol
Dark Magician Girl/Hikaru – Yep there is going to be some Bakura/Ryou and as well Yami/Yugi later.
Not the usual baka – About Marik wanting to get laid all the time: There is a reason for that. See I figured that Marik is a pretty obsessive guy with trying to kill/torture everyone. Well he can't do that anymore or else Isis would call up Yami so he has to find something new to be obsessed with to take out all his stress, which is Malik. lol
A little note. After much debate I've decided to go with the original bodies for both Bakura and Yami (when he gets his body). These would be the bodies they had when they were alive in ancient Egypt since they both looked so hot back then. Plus I figured Ryou isn't vain enough to fall for someone that looks exactly like himself the way Malik and Marik are (Yugi and Yami look different enough so its not a problem with them). So this way he gets to drool over Bakura's body.
Ryou tossed and turn as he tried to ignore the sounds coming from the room next to his. Ryou had been staying with the Ishtars for almost a month now and he never could get use to the sounds of sex coming from Malik's and Marik's room. He wondered how Isis, Marzuq and Rishid could sleep through everything but he guessed they were use to all the noises. One thing he did know for sure was that Bakura could stand the sounds less then he could which was why the former king of thieves allowed Ryou to take back control of their body at night.
As Ryou rolled over and covered his head with his pillow, he wondered what his yami was up to at the moment. Probably fast asleep in his soul room or plotting to take over the entire world. Closing his eyes, Ryou tried going asleep again but he was only asleep for a few minutes before he was suddenly woken up again. This time however it was not by the sounds from the room next door but from the bright glowing his Millennium Ring, which resting on the table next to the bed. Sitting up, Ryou stared at the ring as the light grew brighter and brighter until he had to look away. Suddenly the light vanished and Ryou reopened his eyes to find a cloned copy of himself standing in the middle of the room. Ryou then watched with amazement as the person changed right before his eyes. The clone grew a few inches, became quite buff and tanned, the white hair was shortened and three scars appeared under his right eye, which were closed. As the person snapped opened his eyes Ryou saw that they were a pale blue opposed to his own brown eyes.
"Bakura?" Ryou timidly asked. Somehow Ryou knew that this was how his yami look before he had died and his soul trapped inside of the Millennium Ring.
"Amazing! That baka got something right for once," Bakura said as he stared down at his tanned hands.
"Wow," Ryou said in agreement as he started drooling over Bakura's sculpted chest as he tried not to let his eyes roam lower down Bakura's naked body.
"Move over, I'm tired," Bakura declared as he walked over to the bed and shoved Ryou over so that the poor boy was now wedged up again the wall and his naked yami. They both then laid down to try and get some sleep but they were once again interrupted by the sounds next door. "Shut up!" Bakura yelled pounding on the wall and Ryou gave a small eep since Bakura had to lean over him to reach the wall. Ryou was inches away from the chest he had previously been drooling over and had to contain himself from sticking out his tongue to lick it even though he was sure Bakura wouldn't mind.
"There," Bakura proudly said as the sounds became bearable and he laid back down on his own side of the bed. Bakura then soon fell asleep as getting his own body wore him out. Ryou however was wide awake as he tried to be strong and not to rape Bakura during the night.
"This is going to be such a cool vacation!" Jounouchi cried as he and Honda looked out the window of the plane. The two of them along with Yugi and Anzu were on their way to Egypt to surprise the Ishtar's. Using money that Yugi won from a recent tournament the gang rented a house near the Ishtar's and planed to stay there for a while on vacation while they visited with their friend. While Jou and Honda enjoyed themselves during the flight Anzu and Yugi were both lost in thought. Yugi's problem was that Yami's home Egypt and one day they would return there to say goodbye to Yami when he moved onto his afterlife. The former Pharaoh however was not yet ready to leave his friends so that trip was further down the line.
Anzu problem was Marzuq. She hadn't seen her son since he was born and only then it was slightly that she saw him knowing that if she spent too much time around him she wouldn't want to leave, which wasn't fair to Malik. Even when Malik would send them pictures she wouldn't look at them knowing her heart would break that she couldn't be there for him. She also wondered how he was doing, the only baby she spent a huge amount of time around was Honda's annoying, talking, perverted nephew, who's lifelong dream was to take a bath with her. She hoped Marzuq wasn't like that.
"Cheer up Anzu," Honda said breaking into her thoughts. "Malik takes good care of the little guy. He always looks so happy in the pictures that Malik sends."
"Yeah, plus he's adorable!" Jou added. "He looks just like Malik!"
"I wonder how Malik is doing," Yugi wondered out loud entering the conversation. "It's only been a few months since his accident."
"Good thing he has Ryou there to help him out," Honda replied before frowning. "I just hope Bakura doesn't try anything."
"I'm sure we would have heard something if he did," Jou replied while quickly glancing at Anzu who had gone pale at the thought of Bakura doing anything around Marzuq. "Remember, Isis, Malik and Rishid are there to stop Bakura from doing anything dangerous."
"Plus no way will he try anything now with us there!" Yugi added before his Millennium Puzzle started to glow and Yami took over for Yugi.
"Bakura would be a fool to dare to touch Marzuq!"
"You're right guys," Anzu replied forcing a smile. "I shouldn't worry about Bakura."
The four of them, while technically five of them but only four had bodies, continued their journey and soon they were landing in Egypt. They then took a taxi to the Ishtar home, where they quickly knocked on the door.
"Lazy asses," Malik muttered seeing Ryou, Bakura and Marik with Marzuq on his lap, sitting on the couch and watching TV. Malik meanwhile was cleaning out McGuire's and Little Ryou's litter boxes. He could have gotten Ryou to help him but he could sense that something was up between Ryou and Bakura and wanted them to spend some time together.
To complicate things for Malik's work, Little Ryou kept on chasing McGuire all around the place who was desperately trying to get away from the little bunny. "Guys stop it!" Malik begged as he almost stepped on McGuire's tail. He wondered why he had to take care of McGuire anyway since Isis had claimed him all for herself, which was fine with the kitten who adored Isis.
Then the doorbell rang, so with a sigh Malik walked over and opened the door but as soon as he did that McGuire darted out the open door. "McGuire!" Malik desperately called after the kitten as he quickly shut the door in Little Ryou's face so the bunny couldn't get out as well. Malik then took off running down the street after McGuire without even noticing who was at the door.
"That was odd," Jou commented as they watched Malik take off down the street after the kitten.
"Should we go after him?" Yugi asked having taken back control from the Pharaoh.
"Maybe we should see if someone else is here?" Honda suggested. "Otherwise they wouldn't know that Malik is missing."
"Okay," Yugi agreed as he once again rang the doorbell.
"Answer the door already!" Bakura yelled in annoyance as the doorbell rang once again. To increase his annoyance, Little Ryou hopped over to the couch and jumped up into the thief's lap. "Why does he like me so much?" he grumbled.
"It was probably the bunny ears you used to have," Marik replied with a laugh. "He probably thinks you're a rabbit like him!"
"I don't have rabbit ears in my hair anymore!" Bakura protested causing Marik to laugh harder and Ryou to join in with the laugher.
As the doorbell continued to ring, Marik reluctantly stood up, with Marzuq still in his arms, and walked over to the front door taking a peek out to see who it was before opening the door. "It's the Pharaoh!" he cried before rushing upstairs with Marzuq.
"Cover for us!" Bakura told Ryou before darting up the stairs himself.
When the two yamis were out of sight, Ryou stood, walked over to the door and opened it. "Hey guys! What are you doing here?" he excited asked while hugging each one of them.
"Well we're supposed to be surprising Malik but he ducked out of here without seeing us chasing off after some cat," Jou explained.
"Oh dear," Ryou replied. "Come on in then and we'll wait for him to get back. I'd suggest we go help look but we would more then likely get lost."
"So where's the little guy?" Jou asked as they entered the home.
"Uhh . . . upstairs, having a nap," Ryou replied trying to remember whether Marik still had Marzuq with him or not.
"Rats," Honda replied as Anzu hung her head in disappointment.
Ryou led them all into the living room where Little Ryou was busy trying to dig a hole into the couch. Seeing this, Ryou picked up the bunny who snuggled into his chest thinking it was Bakura since Bakura's scent was all over him. "This is Little Ryou," Ryou told them. "The kitten Malik is chasing after is McGuire."
"He's cute," Yugi said as patted Little Ryou on the head. He was rewarded for his efforts by being bitten on the hand by the bunny. "Ouch!" he cried and he thought he could hear some faint high-pitched laugher coming from upstairs, however he figured it just had to be his imagination.
"Sorry, but he really really likes Bakura so I'm guessing he trained the little guy to bit anyone he doesn't like," Ryou explained as he gently stroked Little Ryou's head. "It's actually pretty cute the way Little Ryou will hop over to him wanting attention . . . er so I've been told."
"Well at least he still looks cute even if no one can touch him," Yugi replied as he nursed his sore finger.
"If you think he's bad wait until you meet Marzuq," Ryou replied with a laugh. "It took three days before I could hold him without him crying. I actually thinks he likes Bakura better then he likes me. I think it could be the whole liking crazy yamis thing he developed growing up around here."
"What's that supposed to me?" Anzu asked concerned that something was wrong with Marzuq.
"Nothing," Ryou quickly replied, hoping that Malik would get back soon.
"McGuire get back here!" Malik yelled as he continued to follow the kitten. Who knew a kitten could be so fast. With a leap, Malik landed hard on the ground but he managed to grab a hold of McGuire who was trying to wiggle free. Standing up, Malik clutched the kitten to his chest and started walking back home hoping that Ryou could handle two yamis, a baby and a rabbit. He really hoped that the two psychopaths didn't burn down the house the few minutes he was away. When he finally reached home, he walked inside and dropped McGuire on the floor while Ryou walked out of the living room.
"Good you're back!" Ryou cried looking relieved.
"What's wrong?" Malik asked with alarm. "Where's Marzuq?!"
"Up stairs having a nap," Ryou replied and Malik gave him a confused look.
"But he's already had his nap this afternoon," Malik replied. "You know that." Malik then bounded up the stairs before Ryou could tell them about that their friends were waiting in the living room for them.
"What's going on?" Yugi asked as he walked out into the hall where Ryou was, followed close behind by the others. They had all heard the conversation between Ryou and Malik. Before Ryou could reply there was a blood-curling scream from upstairs so they all rushed up to see what had happened.
"What did you do to my son?!" they all heard Malik yell and rushed to the room he was in, which was Marzuq's room. To the surprise of Yugi, Anzu, Jou and Honda in the middle of the room stood Marik who was looking at Malik with an innocent look on his face. Malik was standing angrily a few inches away from him holding Marzuq in his arms. However Marzuq looked different, his hair, which was normally flat, was spiked up similar to Marik's. "What stuff did you put into his hair!"
"Glue," Marik replied with a shrug and Malik looked as if he was ready to kill the yami but instead he turned to the person who was lounging in the beanbag chair that was in one of the corners of the room, laughing his ass off. "And you! You didn't do anything to stop him!"
"It's not my job to stop him from doing anything," came the reply and the group of new arrivals knew that it was Bakura, recognizing his voice.
"What's going on here?" Yami demanded, switching places with Yugi.
"You tell them," Malik snapped to Marik as he pushed his way pass the others, carrying Marzuq into the bathroom. "Nice to see you guys by the way," he added calling behind him before disappearing into the bathroom to wash the glue out of his son's hair.
"I said what is going on here?" Yami repeated as he crossed his arms and impatiently tapped his foot.
"It's amazing what old spells can do," Bakura replied with a smirk on his face. He made no move, however, to get up from his comfortable spot.
"It's hard to believe that the Gods would bless the two of you with bodies," Yami stated as he continued to frown at the pair. What concerned him the most was that Marik seemed uninterested in them all and was staring down the hall where Malik and Marzuq had disappeared to with a mournful look on his face.
"That's what good behavior will get you," Bakura replied.
"I know you two are up to something!" Yami argued. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you right here."
"Oh please I only got back last night so it's not like I've had time to cause damage yet," Bakura said while rolling his eyes. "I've done nothing wrong so you can't do a thing to me! If you want to blame someone blame Marik since he's been back for months!"
"Well?" Yami asked turning his attention to Marik who still did not take his eyes off the hallway. "Give me a reason why I shouldn't kill you."
"Because you'll be leaving my son without a father," Marik replied before walking down the hallway and entering the bathroom leaving the rest of them still in Marzuq's room. "Hey," he softly said seeing Malik kneeing next to the tub as he bathed Marzuq.
"I should have told the Pharaoh he could kill you," Malik grumbled as he scrubbed Marzuq's hair with shampoo.
"Look, I'm sorry," Marik said with a heavy sigh, which surprised Malik. Marik rarely apologized for anything. "I thought he looked cute that way!"
"I'd admit that he did look cute," Malik replied. "But warn me next time when you do something like that! You could have at least used something that comes out easy!"
"I didn't want to hurt him!" Marik protested. "I figured glue was non- toxic."
"I'm amazed you even know what non-toxic is," Malik grumbled under his breath as he finished washing Marzuq and lifted him out of the tub. While he was doing that, Marik got a large fluffy towel, held it opened and took Marzuq from Malik. He then sat on the floor next to Malik, while still holding onto Marzuq wrapped in a towel.
"Forgive me?" Marik asked and Malik sighed before giving him a quick kiss.
"I forgave you for taking over my body, trying to kill me, trying to kill Rishid, trying to kill my friends and raping Anzu, didn't I?" Malik asked giving his lover a small smile. "I think I can handle forgiving you for this as well."
"Good because I wasn't looking forward to sleeping on the couch tonight," Marik replied causing Malik to laugh at him. His laugher was cut short however when they heard the front door slam, knowing that Isis and Rishid were home.
"Malik Ishtar!" Isis angrily yelled up the stairs. "How the hell did McGuire get dirty?! He better not have been outside!"
"Hide me!" Malik whispered and it was Marik's turn to laugh. "Don't laugh! If you had only helped me today, McGuire would have never have gotten out this afternoon!"
"Don't blame me I was watching Marzuq!" Marik replied. "And Ryou and Bakura were too busy trying not to jump each other bones."
"So you noticed it too?" Malik asked. "We need to blame this on someone or I'm dead!"
The pair stared at each other for a few silent minutes before they both broke out in huge grins. "The Pharaoh!" They simultaneously said while breaking out in laugher. Both of them knew that Isis wouldn't dare getting mad at Yami so he was the perfect person to blame.
