;; I completely forgot about this story. I had typed this chapter awhile ago, however never posted it. After being in a better English class, I even revised it, so it should be much better than before. Plus, more pages! Yay! == So uh... read and review... and now I go back to working on my homework... ahhh, the days of a high school upperclassmen... vV

After Lunch, they headed to each of their cabins to gear up to go skiing. They had all rented skis, most of them only having a little experience. Joey's experience was the little hills in his backyard when he was younger. Needless to say, he was a little worried, but desperately trying to hide it but being overly cocky.
They all met together after gearing up, and walked over to the slopes. Joey walked cockily, hoping he knew what he was doing. Kaiba and Faye were having their own conversion, and Kaiba had even slipped his hand in Faye's.
"So, have you ever been skiing?" Faye asked Kaiba.
"A few times, mostly just here and there, how about yourself?"
"Once or twice, I'm not too good at it." She had gone with her grandfather up in the mountains near here skiing.
"You're probably better than Joey," he informed her, she smiled weekly, and then said,
"You may have a point, but you really should lighten up on Joey, and the rest of them. At least for this trip." Kaiba made a face, "Ugh, that dog?" Faye glared at him.
"Ehhh, fine. I'll try."
"Good. You'll enjoy yourself more this way. Hey, by the way, hmm, I guess this is a stupid question, but did you did your laptop and/or work?"
"Yes, I had so much of it, I didn't have much of a choice."
"I brought my laptop, you can send me some of the files. I can do them for you." Faye said, for she sometimes went over to Seto's to help, she knew what to do.
"Well, that would be a lot of help, but you don't have to, really. I can manage."
"Lair," Faye laughed, "Just send me some of the files. I think I'll be able to do them."
"Alright, I'll send them when we get back, don't forget to send them back when you've finished with them."
"I won't," she promised.
"That is, Seto, if I get back in one piece. Can you trust me to not crash into anything?" she joked. "I don't know, I may decide to accidentally plan revenge and crash into you."
"Ah, Faye, is that the best plan of revenge you could come up with?"
She thought about it, then said, "Yup, oh come one, it's finally vacation, you can't blame me."
"No, I guess not." He pulled her closer, having his arm on Faye's shoulders. Totally un-Seto like.
[Seto: Stares
A/N: Awwww come on, corny but sweet let me have my fun :P]
Joey was leading the group, so he was the first to see the mountains, his face fell. Then he saw the rest of the group behind him catch up, and he put his cocky face back on with a lot of trouble.
"Their huge," Erasa exclaimed, they all noticed the skiers on the mountain, they looked like professionals.
"Are those the mountains were skiing?" Joey asked, his voice shook. Seto opened his mouth but with a sharp glare from Faye he quickly closed it.
Tea shook her head no. "Nope, those are if you've had a lot of experience. The ski-mountains for us are over there somewhere." She pointed over to the left. The group sighed a relief, even Sharpner.
"Are we ever going to be off this trail?" Tristan asked. They had exited the main campsite grounds heading for the ski lift.
"I think the end of the trail is just over there, where the trees break." Faye said. Gohan nodded. 'Man,' he thought to himself, 'too bad I have to keep my cover down, otherwise, I could have just flown there and had been there by now. Oh well, no harm in walking.' Yugi the same, his Yami was dieing to see the mountains, but he couldn't let anyone know about himself.
Yugi, perhaps I could take over for a while? I'd really like to see the mountains.
/I guess so, but don't let anyone see/. A light shown out from the puzzle, but no one noticed because it was still daylight, that is, the flash went unnoticed. A second later, Yami Yugi was standing there, but hopefully no one would notice. Really, who would notice the fact he's much more taller and his eyes have narrowed. Plus the tone of voice. But no one seemed to noticed. Gohan turned his head, sensing the sudden "darkness", Yami didn't notice.
"Amazing," Yami whispered in his deep voice.
"Sure is," Videl said back, "I've never seen anything like this in my life." Yami nodded.
"I mean, if you count the textbooks, then yes, I've seen them, but textbooks don't give the same... Feeling this real ones do." They got up to the ski-lift, Tea, Erasa, Tristan and Ryou decided to stay behind and be the cheerleaders. Sharpner wanted to do the same, but his pride wouldn't let him. Only Joey, Sharpner, Seto, Gohan, Faye, Yami, and Videl remained. They rode the ski-lift, more than half-way up the mountain,that was a lot shorter than the rest of the professional mountains.
They reached the top, everyone put their skis on and the rest of there gear. Walking up towards the ledge, Joey kneeled down on one knee and glanced down, he whistled. "Man, that's mighty steep, uh, guys."
"Gee, is Joey scaaaared?? Aw, how cute." Sharpner said. Videl turned her sharp glace towards Sharpner, "YOU want to go first? I think you should." She said, shoving him off. Everyone laughed, watching him narrowly avoid trees and try to stay upright. Too bad for him, he tripped over a tree root and rolled down the rest of the mountain.
"Soooo," Videl said turning to them all, "Who wants to go next?" The group looked alittle nervous at her saying that. They edged subconsciously away from the ledge.
Gohan went next, along with Videl. They did alright, mainly because they steadied themselves with their power. Yami (a.k.a. Yugi) went next with Joey (who tripped twice, but managed to catch himself. Yami said later to him, he made the funniest faces.) Then, only Faye and Seto were left.
Faye looked at Seto, alittle nervous. Seto nodded, "Ready?"
"Yup, here goes nothing," Faye said, as both of them jumped off. They skied in unison together, making it past all the trees and other foreign objects (also known as Sharpner.) They neared the bottom when Faye asked Seto suddenly, "Um, Seto? How exactly do you stop??"
"What? I thought you said you've been skiing before!
"Well, I have, I just forgot."
"Oh, well turn you skis to the side, you should skid to a stop."
"Thanks."
They reached the bottom, but Faye would have stopped fine, if it wasn't for the same hidden, snow-covered small rock Joey tripped over before. She lost her balance, a few seconds later she had almost regained it, but at that current moment, Seto came into her path. She ran straight into him, knocking him over, and tumbling the rest of the way down. Which wasn't very far. They landed in a heap, Faye on top of Seto. She blushed and quickly got up, causing pain in her leg, but once up extending her hand to help Seto up.
"Sorry," she said, extremely embarrassed. Seto got up, winced holding his side lightly, and then smiled.
"Ah, no your not, I know you too well. You did that on purpose." She smiled, a little relieved.
"At least my stop was done right, it's just that, er, there was a rock or something in the way." The others were off to the side rushing over, but they still heard everything that was said.
Everyone smiled, mainly because they thought it was not an accident. Seto looked a tad nervous, and looked away slightly flustered.
"Uh, hi guys." Tea walked over to Faye's side, "Oh, Faye, you're bleeding! We should go to first aid." Faye glanced down at her leg; a nasty gash running from her knee to her upper thigh was visible through a long cut through her pants.
"Yeah, I must have caught that rock up there," Faye said sighing, "Darn. I liked these pants, alright, let's go. Seto, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, my side hurts a bit though, I'll be one big bruise by tomorrow." He said. Faye leaned onto Videl, and limped the rest of the way back to the main campsite grounds. Everyone followed, wondering if they would get into trouble. They could not all fit in the first aid building, even though it was a good size building, so only Seto, Videl (who was helping Faye walk), Tea, and Faye went in. The rest went to the main hall, because it was too cold to wait outside.
The nurse's eye opened when she was Faye's injury. "Oh my, child. I guessed it was from skiing, how did you manage to do that to your leg?"
"Got my leg caught on a rock," she replied glumly. The nurse nodded, "Ah, I've seen so many injuries because of that, well, let's get you fixed up." She lead Faye over to a cot, motioning for her to sit down. The nurse, known as Mrs. Takeru, searched through her cabinets pulling out a bottle of disinfectant used for cuts and some ace bandages.
"Hm, dear," She said smiling slightly, "you may not like this, but I'm afraid your pants are too tight to be simply rolled up. I cannot get to your cut, without ripping them further then they already all without hurting you." Faye looked to Seto, "Um Seto? Could you turn around for a second?" Seto turned, turning a very slight shade of red. Faye had a bit of trouble, her leg hurt, especially when the fabric of her jeans rubbed against her leg. But with Tea and the nurse's help, (Videl had left to inform the others that they should be back soon) they had got it done. The nurse applied disinfectant to the wound; Faye took a sharp intake of air when the liquid hit the wound, Seto twitched slightly. Mrs. Takeru quickly applied the bandages to Faye's leg; the wound was pretty large, but not too deep. So it wasn't too bad.
When done, Faye painfully slow put her pants on again. "Okay, thanks Seto." He turned back again, his face showed relief which quickly went back to his usually face mask, expressionless. They all thanked Mrs. Takeru and left to the main hall, where the others were waiting. Faye limped slightly, but tried to hide it. When they were walking back, Faye thanked Tea and Seto for waiting with her.
"No problem, what are friends for?" Tea said, Seto nodded.
"Guess you were wrong," Faye told Seto.
"Wrong? Me? Why, I'm never wrong." Seto joked. Tea turned around, for she was in front of them, for she had never heard Seto crack a joke before. Faye looked to Tea, "No offense to Joey, cause he seems like a great guy, but," she turned to Seto. "You said, I couldn't do worse than him... But, he didn't have to visit first aid." She smiled.
Tea laughed, "He may not be the smartest, or, er, anything else like that, but he is a great friend." She said.
They walked in silence for a few moments.
"I guess the haunted house is postponed." Tea said. Faye looked to her, "I guess so, I thought that you guys could go without me through."
"Nonsense, we'll just see it tomorrow; anyway, what fun would it be without you?" Seto asked. He leaned over to her, "And, now I have a chance to get something done and prove everyone wrong, that I can get work done, even under extreme conditions." Faye smiled.
They reached the main hall, which had the tallest ceiling Faye had ever seen. The group was all there, Joey and Yugi were teaching Gohan and Videl how to play duel monsters, while Tristan and Erasa were watching and having their own conversation. Sharpner was no where to be seen, which made the group much happier. They didn't really care where he went, except for Erasa. When they saw Faye, they began they're questions. Faye explained it was just a very large 'paper-cut', nothing was severely wrong. They discussed what they were going to do tomorrow, mainly just the haunted house. There also was the ropes coarse, archery, canoeing, and even a real archeological dig. Ryou seemed very interested in the last one, the others learned why when he told them that his father was an archeologist.
"This camp has everything," Faye exclaimed. "Well, that's good, because we have two weeks, almost three weeks, to fill up. Let's see, we'll do the haunted house tomorrow, and maybe a bit of canoeing if we have time? We can always do the things we like more than once." Gohan said.
Faye nodded, "Hmm, that sounds good. I know I can canoe, because that doesn't take to much effort from your legs. Then the next day we can go do something else, my leg won't hurt as bad."
"Ah, sounds good Faye. Hmm, why do they have a haunted house? I mean, it's kinda strange for a camp." Erasa asked.
"Well, I guess it's something extra they do, it's pretty close to Halloween too, maybe they do it every year." Tristan said.
"Hmm, that sounds right. Anyways, it'll still be pretty cool." Gohan said.
Yugi checked his watch, "It's getting pretty late, we should head back before they kick us out of here so they can close up." Everyone agreed, and the group split up, each heading for their own cabin. Seto's cabin was on the way to Faye's, so he walked with her. They usually separted the guys and girl's cabins, but there were too many girls and they had to use the guys one. She started to limp badly, he steadied her and she put her arm on his shoulder for support.
"At least you didn't get hurt as bad." She said to him.
"Nah, I'm tough." He joked, "I can take people ramming into me, especially when they do that on purpose."
"Oh, come on, you know I didn't mean to. If I did however, I would have not gotten hurt myself. Well, maybe... Maybe to make it look like an accident. Hm, maybe I did do it on purpose." She mused. "You know, Seto, you've become a bad influence on me." She joked.
"Ha, me? A bad influence on you? Oh come on, I think you have it backwards."
They reached her cabin, Seto's being right behind Faye's.
"G'night," Faye said sleepily.
"Goodnight, Faye." On impulse, he leaned down slightly, (Faye's not that short, Seto's just really tall) and kissed her lightly on her forehead. He blushed, and left to his cabin, and Faye went into hers. Tea, Erasa, and Videl were already in their pajamas, but sitting on top of their beds and under the mosquito netting, exchanging stories. Videl and Erasa were telling Tea about The Great Saiyaman and Videl's work on fighting crime. Tea then found out later that the Great Saiyaman was really Gohan. She knew who Saiyaman was, but not the real person under the mask. She watched the World Tournament, the one where Gohan was unmasked by Sharpner and Erasa, but she didn't watch all of it. She's not into that type of thing. Tea talked about Yugi and how he defeated the master duelist, Pegasus. Faye changed into her pajamas, and talked for a little while, but was the first to fall asleep.
Well, that was exciting. == Hmm, I should get the next chapter up soon. Already started writing it, hehe, mostly in class, sneaking it in. So, read and review! Although by this point it's just a review. Until next chapter, we will meet again!! flies away all Super-hero like.
