Chapter 13
Bakura had been forced to hang out with Marik until 6:30. Apparently, Ishizu, Tea, Serenity, and Mai had heard about their plans, and thus postponed theirs. In other words, everyone was going out together, sort of. The girls were getting ready at Bakura's house, and the boys were getting ready at Marik's house. Each couple was going out to dinner somewhere, and then the whole group planned to go out to see a movie at eight. Even the boys that didn't have dates had decided to go with the group to the movie, this group being Yami (he's thousands of years old, people! He just looks 15!), Duke (He's still crying about Joey not liking him enough to let him go out with Serenity), Seto and Mokuba (Going to an arcade somewhere before hand, Mokuba's complaining that the two of them don't get any "family time" anymore, and Seto doesn't have time to get a girlfriend, even hough I think that I know several fangirls who would love to go out with him...), and Marik and Ishizu (Chuck E. Cheese's, remember? I just like making fun of Marik in this, don't I? I'm just trying to express the fact that he's trying to make up for his bad childhood by replacing it when he's 16, or whatever). Ryou even found a date (which he conveniently did not tell his darker side about) with a shy girl from school with long light-brown hair. Anyways... Bakura had had his usual fun on his way to Marik's house, very pleased that Yami, Yugi, and the save- the-world squad were walking on their own. They would definitely stop him from having his fun and taking in more than enough money than necessary for the dinner, and the movie. Not that he needed to steal, Ryou was absolutely not poor, but... preferred to make his own money, or just steal someone else's. He was pleased that the only other person walking with him was Marik, who simply laughed at the stupid fool of a human whom got his or herself robbed. Once Bakura had collected a rather goodly amount of wallets, they began the more direct trek to Marik's house. The other six guys (Kaiba and Mokuba excluded) were already waiting for them.

Joey- "Hey! Ya Egyptian punk! What took ya so long! We've been standin' here for a half hour already!"

Marik- "Not my fault. Bakura had to get some money!"

Yugi- "Bakura! Have you been stealing again?!!"

Ryou- "Yeah, Bakura! I can always just give you some money."

Bakura- "I don't take charity."

Marik- "Whatever! Come on, we've got to start getting ready and composed now, or we'll be late! Only girls are allowed to be late!"

Duke- "And what would you know about dating? You're the one going to Chuck E. Cheese's with your big sister!"
This pretty much ended the conversation, as Marik unlocked his front door, and everyone filed in, excluding Duke, who was now trapped in the Shadow Realm, and no one missed him at all. (Sorry, Devlin fans! Not trying to be mean here, but he's just ticked because Joey doesn't like him enough to let Serenity go out with him, so he's being annoying.) Most of the guys had brought their own clothes, with the exception of Bakura, seeing as he had no time to go back to his house between asking Rei out and filling his many large pockets. Being in no position to want to borrow some of Marik's shirts (Oh my god, I wish he did. Bakura in one of Marik's beloved shirts that are about 6 inches too short... but not too short for most fangirls... :D ). he decided to run back over to his house and retrieve some of his clothes.

Yugi- "Are you sure you should?"

Yami- "Yes, some of the women may be changing over there."

Joey, Tristan, Duke, and Yugi- "CAN WE COME TOO??!!!" (You know I had to put that in there. Think of Yugi from the manga!)

Bakura- "NO! The only place that I'm going to is my room. No where else."

Yami- "You're gonna get killed if you get caught..."

Bakura- "Hey, I'm a Tomb Robber. I don't get caught, idiot."

At Bakura's house

From the very moment that people had arrived, Tea, Mai, Serenity, and Ishizu began frantically digging through Rei's closet, flinging the dark colored garments across the room, making it positively filthy. Rei, on the other hand, was sitting in the living room, calmly shuffling through her deck and typing in seemingly random words and numbers on her laptop. About 10 minutes later, at, say... 5:30? yes, 5:30, the four girls came downstairs with their arms full of various garments and accessories.

Mai- "Fashion show time!!!!"

Rei- "Oh no..."
Therefore, Rei was forced to try on four different outfits, one from each person. Since they couldn't all agree on one ensemble, each girl had chosen her own set of clothing for Rei to try. Rei tried Tea's first. After changing, she appeared wearing a very bright pink tanktop (apparently the girls had brought some of their own clothes for her to "borrow"...), shorts with a pink camouflage design, knee-high pink socks, and wedge-heel bright blue shoes, with matching necklace, bracelets, and large, dangly earrings. Obviously, Rei was not a big fan of the bright pink ensemble, so it was definitely not picked.
Serenity's was next. She had chosen a soft green sweater with a knee- length beige skirt and brown shoes. Guess what Rei decided for this one. Ishizu came next, with an ancient-looking, off-white gown, which trailed along the floor, sandals, and a gold necklace. Better than the others, Rei decided, but still not her style. Mai quickly shoved Rei back into the room with her outfit. Rei emerged timidly wearing a way-too-tight leather bustiere (sp?).... (Think Mai. What she would wear, but on Rei.), a tiny leather miniskirt, and pointed-high-heel corset boots that went up to Rei's lower thighs.

Serenity- "Mai! How could you choose that kind of clothes?!!"

Mai- "Hey, that's what I normally wear!"

Rei- "Okay, this isn't working. I'm going to pick out my own clothes. I think that I'm capable of that, thank you..." She stormed upstairs, nearly tripping several times because of the really uncomfortable shoes.

Author Note: Thank you, my beloved readers, or reader, depending... I hope that I have more than one..... Yeah, I don't really like Mai, personally, I think she's a bit of a slut sometimes, at least with the clothes she wears... Please Review! Sorry for the lack of updates! Ja ne!
