Romeo and Juliet YuGiOh! Style

Act I, Scene V – The Grand Ballroom of the Kaiba Mansion

The ballroom is decorated and ready for guests to begin partying in. Musicians are waiting and servants are ready to serve food.

The doors burst open and Seto Kaiba enters, followed by many guests.

"Welcome honored guests! As you all know, we are celebrating my daughter's sixteenth birthday. Please make yourselves at home whilst I go and fetch her."

He left for upstairs.

Yami, Bakura, and Ryou smile secretly to themselves. They were wearing masks to conceal their identities. Many of the guests were also wearing masks (lucky for them, eh?).

"There she is," Bakura whispered to his friends. He pointed to the girl of his dreams who was standing only a few feet away.

"She is pretty," Ryou agreed. "Too bad she's talking to Joey already."

Bakura cursed under his breath and moved over to the punch bowl.

Kaiba returned with his wife, daughter, and Serenity.

"Come on, Tea, let's go find Malik!" she said, tugging on Tea's arm. She sighed and went with Serenity.

They found Malik and Marik sitting down on a nearby bench.

"Hey you guys," Serenity said cheerfully. "What do you say we do some dancing?"

"Sounds good to me," Malik said, putting down his drink and dancing with Tea.

"I am not moving," Marik growled. Serenity just reached down and yanked on his arm, forcing him to stand. Then she pulled him out onto the dance floor.

"Tea, you look beautiful tonight," Malik whispered huskily into her ear. She gulped and tried to be nice.

"Er, so do you…"

"Thanks," he replied, pulling her closer. His eyes locked with hers and he smiled.

'What is it with him? I like him and all, but there's something missing… Maybe I should give him a chance…'

While Tea and Malik continued their small talk, Marik was having trouble keeping up with Serenity's dance maneuvers.

"Woman, why are you dancing so fast?"

"I'm not! This is a slow song!" she replied.

"The Hell it is!"

Bakura was following Joey and Miho around.

"Oh Joey, you're so funny and cute!"

"Yeah well, dats how I am an' I just think dat dose old museum folks should blow up. 'Specially dat Kura dude."

Bakura growled.

Ryou was having a little too much to drink.

"And then (hiccup) we watched the dragon (hiccop) eat our popcorn (double hiccup) as well as the girl's (hiccup) shoe…"

Seto Kaiba frowned when he noticed Marik had sneaked in after all.

"Don't worry, dear," Isis said. "He seems to be occupied with Serenity right now. Aren't they cute?"

Tea finally escaped from Malik and decided to get a drink.

"Yo cous!"

Tea turned around to see Joey and Miho approaching her.

"Happy birthday," Miho congratulated.

"Thanks."

"I was just 'splaining to Miho here dat da museum needs ta shut down…"

Tea backed away slowly. She didn't want listen to Joey's 'let's-kill-the-museum-freaks-because-we're-way-better-than-them speech again.

She was backing away towards the punch bowl when she bumped into something behind her.

"Oh sorry," she apologized to a white-haired guy who she'd crashed into ((guess who)).

She was about to get a drink when she saw Malik looking around for her. Tea sighed and left.

Bakura watched her walk away towards some guy whom he recognized as being related to Pegasus.

'She's beautiful… even more beautiful than Miho! I have to meet her.'

"Who is that girl?" he asked a drunk Ryou, pointing to Tea.

"I dunno… (hiccup) 'Sup mate?"

"Ugh, you smell like beer."

Bakura moved away from Ryou and tried to find Yami.

Yami was flirting with several girls, and Bakura decided not to talk to him.

"Where were you?" Malik asked.

"Uh… getting a drink."

"Oh… Well, let's dance."

Bakura couldn't take his eyes off Tea. He watched her and Malik dance around the room with jealousy.

"She is as beautiful as a jewel in an Ethiop's ear… How I wish I knew her name so that I might ask her to dance!"

Joey heard Bakura's rambling and recognized his voice as that of someone from the museum.

"Uncle!" he said, tugging on Kaiba's sleeve. "There's a person from Shadi's museum here!"

"Really?! Well… go away. I can't really do anything about it or Pegasus will have my head. As long as he's not stirring up trouble, ignore him.

"But-but…!"

"Enough! Leave me be!"

In rage, Joey stalked off.

When the song ended, Bakura approached Tea and tapped her on the shoulder.

"Yes?"

"Would you like to dance?"

Tea looked deep into his eyes, as if she was trying to determine whether or not he was a good person.

"Uh, sure."

Lucky for Bakura, it was another slow song.

"You look very beautiful tonight."

Tea blushed and turned away.

"Thanks."

'This guy seems different… Sure I can't see his face, but he's different, even different than Malik.'

"May I, uh… kiss you?" Bakura asked.

"Umm… I don't know…"

'What kind of an answer is that?'

"I don't have cooties, I promise…"

He seemed so trustworthy. Tea felt like she knew so much about him, and she felt pretty comfortable around him.

Their lips met and Tea could feel his passion. Unfortunately, Malik saw this.

"Hey," he said, making them spring apart, "why don't we go talk to your father?"

He pulled Tea away so fast she could barely wave.

Bakura, Ryou (if he had any sense), and Yami decided it was time to leave. Tea noticed they were walking towards the door.

"Serenity," she said, "go find out his name, the one with the white hair."

"Okay."

Serenity went up to Ryou and tapped him on the shoulder.

"What's your name?"

"Uh……… I dunno."

She tapped Bakura on the shoulder and noticed he had white hair too. Serenity hoped this was the guy, and not the drunk one.

"What's your name?"

"Bakura. What's her name?" he asked pointing to Tea.

"That's Tea," she replied. "Mr. Kaiba's daughter… it was her birthday party!"

He felt his jaw drop as the girl left. Yami yanked him and Ryou out the door.

Serenity returned.

"His name is Bakura. He is Shadi's son!"

Tea froze.

"My only love is my only hate…"
