-At Alexia's house, in a spare bedroom at the end of the main hall-
Marik: -stares lovingly into Natri's eyes while stroking her hair- I love you Natri.
Natri: -looking up into Marik's eyes- I love you too Marik.
Marik: -bends down to kiss Natri-
Talra: -walks into the room- Hey guys, we- Oh sorry.
Marik: -straightens up- Uh, hi Talra.
Natri: -blushes- Hello.
Alexia: -also walks in- Sorry to interrupt guys, but it's time for the party to begin.
Natri: -smiles and nods- Alright.
Marik: -sighs- We'll be out in a minute.
Talra: -smirks- Ok, have fun.
Natri: Talra…
Talra and Alexia: -leave and close the door behind them-
Marik: Well, so much for that idea.
Natri: -laughs- Yes, Alexia and Talra do seem to have good timing for things, don't they.
Marik: -smiles- Yeah, I guess we should go out and enjoy our pre-wedding party.
Natri: -looks up at Marik smiling-
-They walk out of the room holding each other's hands-
Elektra: -runs up to them with her hair flashing- HI GUYS! GREAT PARTY! -bounces on the balls of her feet-
Tancred: -sighs- She had sugar.
Natri: -nods- I can tell.
Kiya: -is wandering around- Wow, this place is huge!
Talra: That's why we are having the party here.
Alexia: Yeah, I think everyone is here except for Joey and Serenity.
-Doorbell rings-
Yugi: -shouts- I'll get it! -answers door- Hi guys!
Serenity: Hi Yugi!
Joey: Heya Yuge! Hey, buffet table!
Alexia: Uh oh. Good thing there's an endless supply of food.
Marik: Is that possible with Joey here?
Talra: Amazingly enough, it is.
Joey: -grabs about five plates of food and sits down next to Tristen- Hey Tristen.
Tristen: Hi Joey. -sees Serenity- Hi Sere-Duke: -cuts in- Hello Serenity! It's nice to see you here.
Tristen: -is making strangling motions with his hands in the background-
-Meanwhile-
Bakura: Congratulations on the engagement guys.
Natri: Thank you Bakura.
Bakura: So when's the big day?
Marik: -beaming- Two months from now.
Alexia: Where are you guys going for your honeymoon?
Natri: -smiling-Egypt.
Alexia: Cool.
-Back over at the table-
Duke: So Serenity, want to go sight seeing some time?
Serenity: That would be great!
Tristen: You know Serenity, I know some very good places for sight seeing.
Joey: Alright, both of you lay off my sister.
-On the other side off the room-
Kiya: Hey Yugi, have you seen Atria and Mokuba?
Yugi: I think they went off into one of the game rooms.
Kiya: Alright. -goes off in search of Atria-
-In Game Room A-
Atria: -is shooting at targets with a laser gun-
Mokuba: Nice aim, but not as good as mine! -shoots at some moving targets- Too bad that Seto had to work.
Atria: Uh, yeah, too bad.
Kiya: -comes into the room- Hey Atria, Mokuba, are you guys going to join the party or not?
Mokuba: Yeah! -runs out-
Atria: I'm coming. -puts up the laser guns and follows Kiya-
-Back with Marik and Natri-
Marik: This was very nice of Talra and Alexia to throw us this party.
Natri: Yes, very. –jokingly- Too bad we can't seem to get some more alone time though.
Marik: -laughs- I agree with you on that.
Talra: -walks over- We are getting ready for the first event. Just thought I'd let you know.
Natri: Ok. What is it?
Talra: -smirks- You'll see.
Marik: Why do I get the feeling that this first event was planned by Alexia?
Talra: Cause it was.
Natri: This'll be interesting.
Alexia: -loudly- May I have everyone's attention please!
-Room quiets down as all eyes turn to Alexia-
Alexia: Welcome everyone to Marik and Natri's pre-marriage party! It is now time for the first event!
Elektra: YYYYYAAAAAA- -mouth is covered by Tancred's hand-
Alexia: -As I was saying, we will all split into groups of two or three. I will inform you as to the rest of the rules in a moment.
Duke and Tristen: I'm with Serenity!
Joey: Neither of you are. She's with me.
Duke and Tristen: Awe….
Tristen: Come on man!
-The room grows dark and cold-
Marik: Oh no, Alexia!
Alexia: -smirks- The first event is a monster race. Each team will summon a monster to ride on. It doesn't matter whether the monster runs or flies. The first team to cross the finish line wins a plasma TV.
Joey: O.O Are you serious?!?!?
Alexia: Yep. You can take any route that you want to get there, the only rule is, DON'T hurt anyone.
Tancred: Uh, what finish line?
Alexia: You'll see.
-The Shadow Realm transforms into a series of terrains-
Atria: Nice.
Talra: Everyone summon and mount your monsters!
-The monsters are summoned and everyone scrambles on, a few falling off and having to climb back on-
Alexia: On your mark-
Talra: Get set-
Talra and Alexia: GO!
