Act I, Scene I – A Random Street in Domino

Espa Roba and Weevil Underwood are walking around the village with duel disks and decks.

"Nobody's a match for our decks!" Espa chanted.

"Hai!" Weevil agreed. "Because we work for the famous Seto Kaiba!"

(XD)

"I move so fast that they don't have time to comprehend what card I just put down!" Espa said, making a victory pose.

" Hai! But there's nobody worth dueling anymore…"

" A rat in the Artifacts Museum moves me!"

"But to move is to stir, and to be valiant is to stand," Weevil argued.

" What the hell?"

(OO;)

"If you are moving, you're running away," Weevil explained exasperatedly.

"Oh. Well then, the rat shall move me stand! I shall shove anyone who's related to that museum into the gutter, while I take the sidewalk!"

"Taking the easy way out shows that you are weak."

"True," Espa said nodding. "And girls, being the weakest, always take the sidewalk. Therefore, I shall push the boys into the gutter and throw the girls on the sidewalk."

"Then my little bugsies will crawl onto them, forcing them to lose the duel!"

"MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" they both cackled.

"But still, who would want to duel with the girls; they stink."

"Hai. That is why when I have dueled all the boys, I shall cut off the maid's heads!" Espa announced.

" The heads of the maids?"

(Oo)

" Or their maidenheads."

Weevil still looked confused.

" Their virginity, you roachfreak!"

"Oh. Get your deck ready, because here come two of the museum dopes now," Weevil said, pointing to Duke and Yugi walking towards them with their duel disks and decks.

Espa got an evil idea.

" Let's start a fight."

"But we'll get in trouble…"

"Fine. No, better yet, we'll let them start it!" Espa suggested.

Espa and Weevil venture over to Yugi and Duke; Weevil ficks Yugi off.

"Are you flicking us off?" Yugi asked.

"No, I'm just airing my middle finger out," Weevil replied sarcastically.

"Really?"

"Are you flicking us off or not, Creepy-Crawler?" Duke asked angrily.

"Will you take it as an insult if I say yes?"

"Duh. And I'll chunk dice at your head."

"Then, no, I am not flicking y'all off. But I am airing out my middle finger."

"Are you trying to start a fight?" Yugi asked.

"No… Do YOU want to start a fight?"

"No!"

"But if you do, that's for you," Espa snickered. "I serve as good of a man as you."

"No better," Duke growled.

"Well, I can't say that…"

"Seto Kaiba's way cooler than y'all's little old Ghandi!" Weevil shot out.

"You lie!"

"LET'S DUEL!"

They duel; people begin to gather and watch.

Ryou spies them and decides to try and stop them.

"Stop it! You know dueling in the streets is forbidden," he said as he turned off the hologram projectors.

Joey came up to them.

"Come on man; it's just a duel."

"But Battle City is over!"

"I hate you all! I hate your stupid museum, too!"

He begins to yank Duke's earring off.

A huge fight breaks out; random people join in.

" Down with Kaiba Corp! Down with the museum! Die, die, die!!!"

Kaiba and Isis see the commotion and come over.

"Darling, hand me my sword!" he said to Isis.

"But I have foreseen it all and–"

"I really don't care for you predictions; just give me my sword!"

Shadi and Mai join the crowd.

"Oh boy… Die Seto Kaiba!" Shadi shouted.

Fighting continues.

Pegasus and other officers break up the fight.

"SILENCE!!! (fighting stops) I am tired of this. You two companies have disturbed our streets three times! Do it anymore, and I'll have your heads plaqued to my wall like animals! Kaiba-boy, come with me; Shadi-boy, you're next."

"He better not touch my husband," Isis said through gritted teeth.

Everyone leaves except Shadi, Mai, and Ryou.

"So, what really happened?" Shadi asked.

"Well, they were already dueling when I approached. I was just about to stop it when that Joey guy showed up… And then things just got out of hand," Ryou expalined.

"Where's Bakura? I was sure he started this…"

"I saw him earlier," Ryou replied. "He was sitting in a tree, eating an apple and staring off into space. When I approached, he cursed at me and threw branches down."

"That's not like him. I usually have to stop him from killing people. But then again, he's been keeping to himself lately."

"Why?"

"I don't know; he won't tell me."

"Look, here he comes now! Don't worry about a thing; I'll speak with him!" Ryou said, shoving Mai and Shadi away. Bakura came into view.

"Ohayo gozaimasu, cousin."

"Meh. Is it really still morning?" Bakura asked.

"It's nine o'clock."

"Whatever. Did I just see my father leaving?"

"Yes. What's up?"

"Lacking something I wish to not lack…"

(OO) Ryou decided to take a wild guess.

"Uh… are you in love?"

Bakura shot him a death glare, but it subsided.

"Out–"

"Of love?" Ryou asked.

"Out of her favor…"

"Mmm…

"What happened here?" Bakura asked but then answered his own question. "Never mind. I know it all already. Why must we fight? Oh brawling love! Oh loving hate! Oh light heaviness! Oh, the chaos! Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health! (notices Ryou) Hey, why aren't you laughing at me? Surely, since I always am flawless, you are laughing, no?"

"Tears of sorrow, not laughter, cousin."

"But don't you find me ironic? A murderer in love?"

"Everyone cracks sometimes."

"I HAVEN'T CRACKED!!!" Bakura yelled back.

"Yet…"

"I hate being in love," he scoffed.

"Where is this onna that you speak of?"

"I don't know… She doesn't love me back; she vowed never to love or marry."

"So sad…"

………………

"Forget about her," Ryou said shrugging.

"How? The only way I can think of is to kill her…"

(--;)

"No! I mean, look at other girls. Find someone who's prettier AND who will love you back."

"But… but… Oh well…"

"Ikimasho, cousin."

"I KNOW THAT! Sheesh! Oh, and one more thing."

"Hmm."

"You tell anyone else about this, and I rip your throat out, clear?" Bakura threatened.

"Crystal."

The two cousins leave.
