Chapter XII: A Hectic Day of Filming

The director looked at his totally messed up cast. "Oh, dear," he murmured in agony. "Oh, dear."

Tristan, with the paper bag still on his head, gazed at the director through the eyeholes. "This is all Téa's fault," he said in a grouchy voice.

Téa glared at Tristan. "All my fault? You started it!" she yelled.

"I just said that you had a zit on your nose, and you went completely bonkers!"

"You had no right to say that! I should've done something much worse than cut your hair!" Téa screamed.

The director rubbed his temples irritably. This was giving him a headache. He didn't even really know what had happened.

Tristan had walked outside with a paper bag on his head, and Joey just glared at Téa the whole time.

As for Yugi, his face was still stuck in the same position. "O.o"

Joey was now getting angry. "Both of you! Just shut up! Okay? Everyone! Shut up!"

Everyone just stared at Joey.

"I've had enough of you, Joey!" Téa screamed, the anger rising in her throat. With that, she plowed Joey to the ground.

"Hey!" the director yelled. He didn't need his cast getting all dirty.

Téa sat on Joey, pinning him to the ground. She shook her fist violently in Joey's face. "You have no idea how much I want to kill you right now!"

Joey gulped slightly. "Oh, I have an idea," he said.

"Téa, Joey, get off the ground right now! Do it!" yelled the director in frustration.

"No," said Téa stubbornly.

The director then gave a nod to Kaiba, and mouthed a few words to him.

Kaiba grinned slightly, then nodded. He then proceeded to grab Téa off of Joey, and pick her up over his shoulder.

"Let me go!" Téa screamed, pounding her fists on Kaiba's back. "Put me down before I am forced to kill you too!"

"Sorry, Téa. Director's orders," replied Kaiba a bit smugly.

Téa let out a wild animal cry, then eventually settled down.

"So, are we ever going to start filming?" asked Bakura in his usual calm manner.

The director sighed. "Yes, we shall start now. I think everyone is a bit more calm."

Bakura nodded.

Kaiba set Téa down on her feet. "I didn't think you could have such a temper," he commented.

Téa just glared at Kaiba, as she brushed dirt off of her shirt.

"Okay," said the director. "Places everyone."

Everyone went to stand in their assigned places. Then the cameramen positioned themselves.

The director looked around to make sure everything was perfect, then he yelled, "Action!"

Joey looked at Yugi. "I sure am hungry," he said in a dull voice.

The director smacked his forehead. "Cut! Say it with more expression, Joey! I knew I shouldn't have let you guys eat before this."

Joey tried again. "Gee, Yugi, I sure am hungry!" he said in a perky voice.

The director sighed. It would just have to do.

"I can't believe we're almost at the castle!" squealed Téa.

Kaiba, who was standing near by watching the scene, totally started laughing. He was laughing so hard, it was a snort.

"Cut!" yelled the director.

Téa looked at Kaiba, annoyed. "What's so funny?"

"You sounded so happy! I mean, like a cheerleader!" howled Kaiba.

"I'm supposed to sound like that, you dork," Téa said to Kaiba.

"Are you two done chatting? Could we please just get this over with?" asked Tristan.

"Action!" yelled the director, taking everyone by surprise.

"Well, Joey, I know you're hungry, but aren't you always?" asked Yugi, his face finally going back to normal.

Joey just groaned. "I'm starvin'!"

"Who cares about food?! We're almost at the castle!" Téa yelled excitedly.

"Yeah, you've stated that already," said Tristan.

"Who cares? Isn't it kind of obvious of who wins in the castle? I mean, come on," said a voice.

"Cut!" yelled the director. "Yami Bakura, you're not supposed to be out right now, and that wasn't even a line in the script!"

"I came out because Téa and I have some unfinished business to take care off," stated the Yami.

Téa rolled her eyes. "You're still thinking about that!"

"Well, you're the one that wanted to beat the living stuff out of me, so I thought we could do it right now," Yami Bakura said, smirking.

The director, sighed no longer caring what they did. "Agh! You're making me so mad. We'll finish this filming later!" With that, the director and his cameramen stomped off.

"Oh, good. Awesome job, Yami Bakura," said Joey sarcastically.

Yugi just sighed. He was starting to get sick of all the violence.

"Bring it on, Yami Bakura," said Téa. "I kicked your butt before, remember?"

Yami Bakura just sighed. "You're right. There really is no point in fighting you."

Kaiba could swear Yami Bakura was checking out Téa again. 'He better keep his mitts off,' Kaiba thought.

The normal Bakura returned. "Sorry about that. He totally crashed the scene."

"No kidding," Yugi agreed.

"Well, I'm leaving. I'm sick of just standing around, doing nothing. I'm going for a walk," said Téa. "Do you want to come, Kaiba?"

Kaiba looked at her for a second, then replied, "Sure."

"Ooh! Look at the two love birds go! They totally want to be alone!" said Tristan.

"Shut up!" said Kaiba turning crimson.

"Let's go," said Téa grabbing Kaiba's hand. And with that, they both walked off, leaving the gang alone.


On the walk, Téa and Kaiba were pretty much quiet. It was making Téa feel uneasy, so she decided to break the silence.

Téa was just about to open her mouth, when Kaiba grabbed her shoulders and pushed her against a tree. "What are you doing?!" she cried out in alarm.

Kaiba leaned forward, and started to kiss her passionately. Ever since they had left the gang standing there, he had wanted to kiss her. Now was the time to do it.

Téa, of course, responded back. She felt Kaiba's arms encircle her waist. She pulled away from him and leaned against his chest. "What was that?" she asked.

"Me being romantic," replied Kaiba.

"Sometimes I want to hug you, other times you make me want to strangle you," said Téa, sighing softly.

Kaiba grinned. "I know."

Kaiba was just about to kiss her again, when they both heard a twig snap.

"What was that?" asked Téa, sounding frightened.

"I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Don't move," whispered the young CEO.

So, both of them just clung to each other, in the slightly dark woods, expecting the worst.


A/N: Woah! I'm sorry that I haven't updated in, like, a century, guys. I've been busy doing other things. Like, school started again, and that will, unfortunately, equal a lack of updates. I'll try my best though, okay? -huggles all of her reviewers- Thanks again! You guys are great!

I'll try to get my other fic, Burning Cold updated ASAP, too. I have, I think, two chapters done on paper, I just need to type them now. I'm sorry it's taking me so long. Some of it is laziness, and some of it is because I'm busy! Well, I must be going. See you later!
