Ryou- OK. um we have a note here to start off with. Bakura...
Bakura- Alright. This is addressed to anyone and everyone who loves me and my adorable little hikari. PLEASE! Review 'Flying Sparks' before Jade does something to us.
Marik- She already knocked Joey out.
Jade- bounces in wearing a purple cape and growls I am a vampire! Fear me!
Marik- Jade you need to quit raiding my yami's closet...
Disclaimer- If I owned Yugioh... it would not be aired in the U.S. for many fluffy reasons. And if I owned 'Touch' by Clay Aiken, I would have money to afford more than one box of Bottle Caps. So as you can see, I don't own anything expect... well nothing.
Ryou fidgeted nervously as he waited for 8 o'clock to come. He figured it only normal to be nervous about performing a new song for the first time in front of a crowd. The band had always practiced before but this week, nobody had the time. Marik was currently tuning his guitar and Sabelina, their manager/saxophone player was going over the music sheet. Duke seemed calm enough, as he tapped his drumsticks together. And you can't forget the group's wonderfully talented pianist, Ishizu.
Finally, everyone was ready and the club lights dimmed. "Alright guys, let's go!" Sabelina cheered, bouncing out onto the stage ahead of the others. They followed; Duke heading back to his drums while Ryou and Marik went towards the front with Sabelina. Ishizu gracefully strolled over to her best friend, the piano, giving the audience a polite smile and wave.
The spotlight was turned on Sabelina. "Hello and welcome to the Mayflower. As you most likely already know, we are the band, 'Heartthrob.' Our singer Ryou," she paused as the spotlight flickered over him, "Is a real heart throb don't ya think?" The crowd, of course, goes crazy; and somewhere among them, sits Bakura growling at the all the attention his light was getting.
"What about me Sab?" Marik whines.
"Now how am I suppose to forget my own boyfriend?" This received a lot of 'boos' from the audience. "I know. You poor souls; me, Ishizu, and three hot guys and only two are available. Right Duke? Right Ishizu?"
"Don't count on it." Ishizu scolded playfully.
"Right." Duke replied giving a small flirtatious wave. The crazed girls screamed and cheered and a few probably even fainted. Ryou stepped up to his microphone, "Alright, let's get this show started now that you have already caused a few fans to faint." The spotlight changed to a light blue as the stage lights dimmed as well, leaving the whole room basking in the eerie blue glow. "The first song is called 'Touch'."
Blue, is the ocean in your eyes,
Blue as cool September skies, as a lonely waterfall.
Red, is the fire in your heart,
for the passion and love that we make as the sunset is fading away.
Another spotlight danced around the stage, this one a light hue of red. The two spotlights continued to dance circles around the stage, avoiding the other at some points and mingling at others.
Tea's breath caught as she cast a shy glance to Yugi and found Yugi staring back at her. They both giggled softly and blushed, looking away shamefully. On stage, Ryou caught sight of this and smiled to himself. That was easier than he thought it would be, not like that was the only reason behind this song. No, this song held a much deeper meaning.
Angel, heaven starts here tonight in your arms,
wanna drown in your body get lost in your charm.
Now that you're here, angel don't go, lets keep the mood nice and slow
Ryou let his body flow to the rhythm, 'Hm... note to self; think about investing in back-up dancers.'
All I want is your touch, all I want is your heaven right here by my side, every night.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your tenderness here in my life, every morning and night.
Oh cause your touch is so right
Yes, I've been thinking about you.
I've imagined the feel of your body and how it will be when we move.
Bakura sat at the bar, completely mesmerized by his hikari's fluid movements, his apricot brandy temporarily forgotten. ' No. Bad. I'm not falling for him. Sure he's sweet and innocent and...' he turned back to his drink and downed it before calling for another. 'Must distract my mind. I'm drunk that's all. How can I be drunk after one shot? Great, now I'm arguing with myself.' he thought to himself.
Darling, magics alive tonight in your arms
wanna drown in this moment, get lost in your charm.
Now that you're here, don't move too fast lets make the moment last.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your heaven right here by my side, every night.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your tenderness here in my life, every morning and night.
Oh cause your touch is so right
I don't want nobody else and you see that my body is aching,
I'm hopelessly taken by you.
Yamia adverted her gaze from the stage, golden-amber eyes scanning the contents of the club and finally resting on the object of her desires. She couldn't stand watching Ryou sing, don't get her wrong, she loved him as a friend and loved his music, but he tended to get a bit... er... seductive with his dancing? And it drove her crazy, plus it didn't do a lot to help her already infatuated mind.
So instead, she imagined Yami up on stage, singing, just for her. She sighed dreamily and spaced off as the song continued.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your heaven right here by my side, every night.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your tenderness here in my life, every morning and night.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your heaven right here by my side, every night.
All I want is your touch, all I want is your tenderness here in my life, every morning and night.
Oh cause your touch is so right
your touch is so right
right
your touch is so right.
The song came to an end and the crowd went wild, again. Honestly! What did you expect? For them to fall asleep? Yugi and co. stood up and cheered their friends on as well.
Sabelina once again took the spotlight, stepping back up to the microphone she exclaimed excitedly, "Guess what fans? Tonight is your night to show us your talent. So step on up and show us your best on the Mayflower's brand new karaoke machine! Who wants to go first? Or I could just pick... Hey look it's Seto!"
"Yeah, it is! Hey Kaiba, want to try out the karaoke?" Marik asked hopefully.
Try as he might, Seto had no escape, he soon found himself being pulled up onto the stage by Yami and Bakura. "Let go of me! I'm not going to sing!" he growled, struggling to get away from his captors. Joey piped up, "If ya won't sing, we'll be happy to tell the audience where you've been the past weekend." That sure kept Seto quiet.
The band cleared the stage so Seto could take over. Ryou hopped down off the stage, right into his dark's arms. "Great performance, kid." Bakura mumbled softly, running a hand through his light's hair. "Thanks, Kura." Ryou said, giving his yami a hug before they turned their attention back to Kaiba.
Jade- This chapter is terrible.
Bakura- I was going to say that.
Marik- What shall happen in the next chapter?
Ryou- Do you think we should continue with the nightclub thing, or should we skip to later that night, next day?
Bakura- Please REVIEW! Or else...
