Chapter 6: More DDR, The Duel Finally starts, and Pegasus reveals the SECRET!

Disclaimer: I think I had Yugi-oh at one point, but then I ate it. Or I got drunk and thought I had Yugi-oh, but really didn't.

Note: I had a comment from my dear friend (Lord) Scribbles, saying that people did not necessarily know what DDR was. Therefore… DDR stands for Dance Dance Revolution, and it's a standard arcade game with super-cool music. There is a screen, and a dance pad, which has four arrows, each pointing a different direction. On the screen, arrows will float by, and you have to stomp them with your corresponding foot on the corresponding arrow on the pad, and get a score on your timing. As the songs get faster, the levels get harder, and the arrows go by faster. Très amusante.

"Wow, Tea's really good!" Duke marvelled. "She hasn't got less than an 'perfect' yet!"

"No kiddin.' She used to practise at the dance hall everyday for like, three hours!" Joey whispered back, bobbing his head like a rabid chicken to the beat.

"Why'd she stop?"

"I think her parents got mad and made her stop."

"That's a real shame. She could be great one day…"

"At DDR?" Tristan interjected. "Sorry, but you don't make your money off of dancing at arcades…"

"You don't?"

Bakura was not doing so well. Apart from sweating buckets and having the Puzzle and Ring dig into his chest, he kept missing the pads, and was instead stomping on Tea's feet.

"OW, YOU F5CK1N6 B147CH!!" Tea screamed in his face, still half attached to the contest, and still getting no less than perfect every time.

Well, I think it is needless to say how this contest continues, so I'll skip to the end, and save us all some wicked cursing.

"I WIN!!" yelled Tea, happily. "OH YEAH, WHO'S THE MASTER!?" Bakura swore loudly.

"Hey, that's not nice!" warned Mai, who had been half-asleep, and now got up to (virtually) tower over Bakura. Wow, even evil demonic masochistic leeching spirits can be taken down by some nice, wholesome feminine wiles.

"Meep!" he meeped, feeling very small and insignificant. Which was a first, I might add.

"Hey, that's going to far, narrator!" he yelled, now angry. "I do NOT feel small and insignificant!"

Oops. I forgot he could hear me.

"Damn straight I can hear you…" Bakura muttered wildly in several different languages. Meanwhile, every single other being in that plane was staring with their jaws dropped at Bakura.

"Great, now the freak is schizo (or… at least more than he used to be) Just what we need…" grumbled Duke, calm, as always. But Joey on the other hand…well…

"AHHHH get it AWAY from me!!!" he screamed.

"Calm down, Joey, it's just a mentally insane psycho who wants to see us all dead, and is now discovered to be schizophrenic (again)… it's nothing to worry about!" Tea soothed, while pointing at his back, and mouthing "Take him first!! Take him, not me! I don't deserve to die!"

Bakura sniffed. "Well, I suppose I have to give you information now…" he said with the air of a man whose pride has taken a great injury.

Tea smirked, and nodded. "Yep, you got it. Spill the beans, Bakura."

So he did, however unwillingly.

Meanwhile, Yami had finally got a grip, and the now deeply-tanned-Kaiba was happily bouncing around, singing "Pegasus is cool, too cool for school!" over and over again.

"Pegasus, I am ready to duel, but on one condition: You tell me where my puzzle is, and why you took me here in the first place, and why Malik is teaching my algebra period!" Yami announced.

"Yes, dear…but Kaiba Boy? Duelling time!"

"Oooooh!! HAPPY!!! Mesa going to WIIIN!!!" Kaiba bounced. Now everyone was blatantly staring at Kaiba. Yami smirked.

"I play Dark Magician, attack!! MUAHAHA!!! YOU LOOOOOSE!!!" And it was true. Kaiba's life points had indeed decreased to zero. "HAHA! I guess the infamous KAIBA isn't so up to snuff in his DUELLING skills, now IS HE??!" Yami gloated. Meanwhile, Kaiba was sniffling, and Mokuba was frantically trying to get him away before the trembling in 'big brother's' lower lip became a full out tsunami. They both raced up the stairs, never to be seen again.

"Now, Pegasus! Tell me why!"

"Why what, Yugi Boy?"

"Why did you bring me here?" Yami growled, vein throbbing in his temple.

"Well…because I felt like it. And when I feel like doing something, I do it. that's the upside of being rich! . But I also brought you here, because His Evilness Malik Ishtar killed your algebra teacher, and took over his job, so he could finally face you! And if he did, he would have stolen the puzzle, and would have killed all in his path to keep himself amused while his lesser self found the pharaoh, and killed him. Not a very nice person, put a darn good opponent at marbles, I can tell you that! o0 Well, that's why I brought you here…what else did I have to tell you? Ah, I remember… drat. I really don't want to tell you this, but… your puzzle is… well… above you."

"What?"

"Look up….!!!!"

"Wha—" Yami started. But…then he looked up. And saw Bakura falling rapidly towards him. "HOLY MOTHER OF KAMI!!" he yelled, eyes as wide as square-ish hockey pucks. Pegasus giggled, then signalled to two of his men to throw down a mattress where Bakura was evidently going to meet his doom.

"AHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh—OOF!!" Bakura yelled, as he flew past them and landed face first into the only partially-accurately-placed mattress. He then looked up and saw them all staring at him, in a menacingly potent manner, a phrase which in this case means that everyone was advancing on him wearing bemused smiles, but hiding their true feelings of hostility.

"Well hullo there!" Bakura said, fidgeting on the mattress. "My, this thing's soft! Where do you go to buy furniture? I absolutely must know… heh…heh…" Bakura had just caught a glimpse of Yami, who was boring holes through his eyes, with a malignantly maniacal smile.

"Hullo, Pharaoh! What brings you here on this…extraordinarily…fine…day…WAIT! Before you kill me, you must know that I don't exactly have your Puzzle!" Yami, who was in the motion of swinging a giant baseball bat upon Bakura's shoulders, paused. (Wait, where did he get a giant baseball bat?)

"What do you mean you don't have my puzzle?" Yami said carefully, through clenched teeth.

"I mean that I wason a plane with your annoy—I mean…happy, and wonderful little friends, and I told them what I did, and they took your Puzzle, and pushed me out of the door of the plane! Frightfully rude—I mean, just." Bakura laughed without humour, and backed away from Yami, who seemed to be…melting.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…." He let out. "That was close… but now I'm in such a good mood, I won't even kill you, Bakura! Let's all just sit around, and play DDR while sipping tall virgin strawberry daiquiris, because we're still minors!!! YAY!!"

And all Yami's happy little friends came down and partied.

"YEAH!!!" Tea cried. "I WON!!"
