I don't know if I can use script form anymore so that might change the author's notes. And now I have to break the emoticon habit. Ah well, no bother. So, back to the point, I won't have the random author's notes up here so poor Yoko loses that job and Angel won't be joining us anymore as she grew bored and went off somewhere. But I'll be numbering certain things I might need to explain. You'll see explanations at the end of the chapter.

And I asked who wanted to be in the sequel. As far as I know, Yesima, Rian & Raema are appearing again, and new characters are Yoko and Ben.

Before I get on to the second chapter, let me just say a few things. First, pardon any typos and grammar errors, my typing skillz seemed to vanish when I'm at home, and magically reappear at school(I do all my school work on computer now). Second, Fiona and Kuronue(Fiona's pup) will be here for the birthday party, as for the rest of the story, they'll be gone. Thirdly, S-N will be there for the party, but will be removed replaced for the rest of the story.(By another character similar). So yeah, this is one of the sequels that are based on the first story but aren't really much of a continuation, being there's new twists. Enough of this now.

----------------------------------------------------

Kaiba woke up to a start. Mokuba had snuck into his brother's room and decided to pounce on him.

"Big Brother! Time to get up!" Mokuba giggled as he sat on top of his older brother.

Kaiba groaned and pulled the covers over his head. He let out a muffled question. "What time is it?"

Mokuba smiled. "7:00 am!" He said it as if it was nothing to be up at seven after having gone to bed so late, but then that was Kaiba's fault wasn't it.

Kaiba sat up and looked at Mokuba. "I don't have any early meetings, and my work is caught up for three months, why are you waking me up so early??"

Mokuba tilted his head. "Jou called and told me to tell you that some of the others were meeting in a bit to prepare the party."

Kaiba groaned again. "When did he call..?" He paused. "When and where the hell did he get my number??"

Mokuba bopped his brother over the head and promptly blurted into Kaiba's ear. "What happened to less profanity in front of little siblings? And he probably got our number sometime during the freak show before." Mokuba hopped off the bed and looked back at his brother rubbing his head. "Oh, and I don't know if you've heard, but Fiona is moving back home to America in a few days."

Kaiba blinked and looked at him. "She is?"

Mokuba nodded. "Yeah, she said she didn't really want to, but her father has a lot of stuff he has to do there and he doesn't feel it safe enough to leave her here."

Kaiba merely snorted. "I don't blame him for that.."

The raven haired child was about to leave. "Anyways, I'll get the limo ready while you get dressed, there's no way I'm letting you get out of this, I hope you know."

Kaiba rolled his eyes. "What ever." Mokuba left the room, and Kaiba got out of bed, slipping out of his bed clothes and into the clothes he had prepared the night before. He was about to leave when he remembered the present.

He sighed and picked it up, then headed down stairs. He wasn't much for breakfast, he didn't care for that 'it's the most important meal of the day' stuff. He had high endurance, so it didn't bother him much.

As Mokuba had said, the limo was ready for him had he told himself that he might as well since he didn't have anything better to do. Mokuba was waiting in the limo, he smiled when Seto got in.

"C'mon, Seto. Don't be so grim about it, try to have fun!" Mokuba coaxed.

Kaiba growled low. "I think I've had enough fun for one lifetime."

They were silent for most of ride, and when they reached their destination, Mokuba was happy. Kaiba, on the other hand, didn't share the same enthusiasm.

Mokuba had taken the gift and ran inside the building where the party was being held. 1

Kaiba followed his little brother in and saw the others setting things up. Yugi and his band of groupies were there. Joey was pretty much all around the food table, claiming to be testing the food and that only the best could be served for Rian. Tea was helping with some of the decorations but mostly keeping her eye on Joey.

To Kaiba's surprise, Ryou, Malik, and Duke were there. Ryou was placing the food on the table while Malik set of the drinks, both of them smiling sheepishly at Joey while helping each other organize the food.

Of course, Odion 2 was there, keeping watch of his younger 'brother' and helping whenever he could. Ishizu was helping Tea with the decoration because the girl had to often leave to shoo Joey away from the food table.

Yugi, Tristan, and Duke were setting up some lights and decorations. Yugi was mostly handing them things since he was sort of too short to reach, but he didn't seem to mind so as long as he helped in some way.

Eventually Serenity came in from the back room and managed to distract her brother from the food table, much to Tea's relief.

Mokuba soon jumped in to help with the decorations and food. Kaiba finding a nice quiet corner to stand in.

Tristan had whispered something to Duke who gave him a sour expression in return, only causing Tristan to grin broadly. Duke huffed and walked over to Kaiba.

"Hey, Kaiba. We were wondering if you could help with the lighting, music and sound affects." Duke stated once he reached the tall CEO.

Kaiba looked at Duke, shrugging. Like he said before, he had nothing better to do. "What ever." Duke rolled his eyes and led Kaiba to a medium sized table that held some sound equipment and a laptop that controlled the lights, sound, and music.

Once Kaiba was familiar with the equipment, which, mind you, didn't take long, Duke left and went back to helping with the decorations. Not too long after, Yesima and Raema had come in with a butt-load of presents.

S-N had followed in only a few minutes after, placing her gift on the table they had set aside for presents. It was piled high with gifts. Of course, she couldn't help but ask where most of the present came from since it seemed there were extras. Yugi explained that the yamis had gotten Rian gifts just for the heck of going to mall.

Yami had wanted to see this 'large community building of markets and clothing stands for gatherings of people'. Marik just wanted to be in a large crowd so he could do what ever it was that a six-year-old psycho yami does. Bakura wanted to go so he could see if he still had his skills of thievery, and if you couldn't already guess, Bakura's gift probably wasn't paid for until after they had left the mall.

Fiona had arrived a little later, Kuronue wasn't with her for once. She had two gifts with her, one a bit smaller than the other. She just giggled and said it was from Kuronue. Once everything was set to go, Raema left to go find Rian, saying it shouldn't be too hard.

They all took their place lined up next to each other. Kaiba stayed near the wall and leaned against it. The yamis came out and the hikaris then had to separate them so that they wouldn't try to kill each other.

Raema was right when she told them it wouldn't take too long, because she came back shortly, guiding Rian who had a blindfold on 'just for fun'. She led Rian into the building and told her to take off the blindfold. When she did she was greeted by everybody throwing confetti and yelling 'Happy Birthday!'.

Well, everybody except Kaiba, Marik, and Bakura. Because Marik and Bakura hardly knew what to do at the moment, and Kaiba didn't want to participate all that much. Yami knew what to do because Yugi had explained things to him the day before.

Thus the party began. There was a lot of random dancing and much to everyone's surprise, Kaiba was able to make a really good up-beat remix of songs. Joey stayed close to the food table, chatting with Yugi and Tristan every now and then until he went to go dance with Serenity just for fun.

Joey just laughed when Mokuba began dancing with Serenity, he went off to go dance with Fiona. S-N stayed by the food table, but for different reason than Joey had.

After that they gathered around to open gifts. Rian opening the nicely wrapped packages. She smiled at the presents she received. Loads upon loads of Megaman based items. Video games of sorts, game guides and duel monster cards. 3

Once the presents were opened and placed so that they could be carried with easy access, they went and ate a little. S-N helped Ryou bring out the cake, whilst Malik brought out more drinks, Yugi and Yami followed out with ice cream.

They enjoyed the splendid treats and talked amongst themselves. Kaiba mainly staying over at the table, messing with the equipment, keeping the music and lights going since he didn't really want to gather with the others. Mokuba and Fiona brought him so cake, ice cream, and a drink. Fiona smiled and Kaiba and went back to the others.

The day was long and busy with the gathering. While among other subjects. They talked about how both Fiona and S-N would be leaving soon. And for the heck of interest, Tristan tried to fool S-N into revealing what her initials were. 4

1 Okay, yeah, here's where you can use your imagination if you want to. Big, fun, roomy building filled with anything your decent mind can come up with. Decent meaning no 'mind in the gutter' thoughts.

2 I'd use Rishid, and I'd probably use the Japanese names, but since the other story had the dubbed names, I figured I might as well stick to those.

3 For the sake of the anime. I mean, yeah, this is suppose to be a YGO fanfiction, right?

4 You know what they are, but in the story they stand for something else I guess.
