Yu-Gi-Oh; Don't Try This At Home

PG-13

"Yami, you need to get over here NOW." Malik said over the phone to the pharaoh.

"What's the matter Malik?" The pharaoh responded.

"My yami has taken Yugi hostage. He's holding Yugi at gunpoint and threatening to shoot as we speak."

"inhuman screech WHAT THE FUCK?! I'M ON MY WAY!" Yami screeched before hanging up the phone. When off, Malik and Marik, along with their 'hostage' began to laugh uncontrollably. Upon hearing the screeching of brakes and seeing sparks fly past the window, they all assumed their position. Yugi was being 'held' by the back of his shirt by Marik with the gun filled with blanks poised against his head. All three of them had to hold back a snicker when Yami burst in the front door, smoke billowing off his shoes. (A/N: He had run all the way and skidded to a stop. ;)

"Nobody move or I'll shoot!" Marik declared, laughing inwardly.

"Yami, don't do this…you don't know what you're doing…" Malik declared, lifting a foot in the air, preparing to take a step.

"I know very well what I'm doing and I know that if that foot touches the ground, little Yugi here will have a bullet in his head!" Marik exclaimed. Malik stopped his foot in midair then set it on the ground in front of him. Marik fired, making the camouflaged ketchup bottle in Yugi's hair leak all over Yugi. Yugi fell backwards, a look of pure terror on his face. His eyes closed halfway down, just like they'd rehearsed. (A/N: They used about 20 ketchup bottles rehearsing.) Yami's eyes began to glow white and he levitated up into the air, transformation fueled purely by rage.

"Marik…" Yami declared, voice dripping with venom. "…you killed my hikari, for that you must pay! MIND CRUSH!!!" Marik fell backwards, landing on top of Yugi's outstretched arm. Yami transformed back to normal, eyes downcast and head bowed in silent respect for his fallen hikari. He turned away from the two 'bodies' and moments later his shoulders began to violently shake, revealing that he was crying. Malik stepped forward, cueing the others to do so also.

"Yami…I think there's something Yugi would've wanted you to know…" Malik cued Yugi to step toward his yami. The three of them prepared to yell as Yugi prepared to embrace his yami.

"APRIL FOOLS!" The three of them declared as Yugi grabbed Yami around the middle.

"What the…"

"It's all a prank Yami and you fell for it!!" Yugi squealed as he squeezed his yami around the middle.

"The camera's right over there." Marik said, pointing to a rubber tree. Yugi let go so Yami could look the tree over and sure enough, there was a camera, trained on Yami's face. Yugi ran up to Yami and squeezed his middle as though he'd never let go.

"But—I saw Yugi be shot…" Yami said, looking down at his violet-eyed hikari. Yugi reached up, got a little bit of ketchup on his finger and stuck his finger in Yami's mouth. Yami just blinked as Yugi withdrew his finger.

"It's ketchup dummy!" Yugi declared as he swatted his yami playfully on the arm. He withdrew the maimed ketchup bottle from his hair and showed it to his yami. He then assumed a valley-girl attitude and dropped the bottle as though it had fleas. "Oh no! This'll, like, take FOREVER to, like, get out of my hair!" Yugi said playfully. Yami opened his mouth, about to ask another question when Marik pulled a tiny anchor on a chain out of his shirt.

"Soul anchor." Marik explained. Yami hugged his hikari and whispered something in Yugi's ear.

"I suppose you were the ringleader? Well my little hikari, I will get revenge." Yami said mysteriously.

Well? That was really funny in my opinion. Next chapter, a year later on April Fools Day, Yami gets his revenge with a little bit of help from some unexpected people and chapter after that, Yugi and Yami team up to prank the people who helped them with their pranks and some new people are thrown into the mix. PURE INSANITY TO FOLLOW ON Yu-Gi-Oh; Don't Try This At Home!
