Sorry this took so long. Here's chapter 3!
Disclaimer: I do not own any sort of Yu-gi-oh.
Chapter Start
Yugi ran across the lawn toward one of the stone walls. He got out a finger-paint set and started to paint on the wall. Joey ran up behind him.
"What cha' doing' Yugi?" he asked him.
"Painting a picture," he responded.
He continued to paint while Joey watched. He started to paint a person. A badly painted person. It had white hair and angry eyes. It was yelling, only sense it was a picture you couldn't hear what it was yelling. Yugi stepped back from his master piece.
"What'd you think, Joey?" he asked.
"It…. looks.. like….. Bakura! Sweet! You painted Bakura! And it really does look like him."
Bakura came up behind Joey and looked at the picture. At that moment Yugi labeled his painting "Pissed of Bakura because he can't get the Millennium Puzzle". He then signed his name. Bakura looked at it for a few seconds. Then his facial features changed. His eyes grew dark and scary. His teeth showed.
"Damn you Yugi! What the hell did you do! Why did you paint a picture of me! You are so dead!" he yelled before chasing after him.
"Hahaha! I'm sorry, Bakura! I couldn't help myself!" Yugi said while running for his life.
"You get back here! I'm going to kill you! I'll give you a very slow and painful death!" Bakura threatened at the purple chao.
The two of them ran around the Chao Garden for the whole morning. Yami stepped in front of Bakura after the 539th time around the garden.
"Bakura! Why are you chasing Yugi around the garden!" Yami asked him.
"That little brat painted a horrible picture of me on the wall! And now I'm going to give him a very slow and painful death! So step out the way, Pharaoh!" the dark chao yelled into the pharaoh's face.
"Show me the picture." He said calmly.
Yugi, Bakura and Yami walked over to the wall with the picture of Bakura on it. Yami stared at it for a few seconds. He then turned to Yugi.
"Yugi? You painted this?" he asked his hikari.
"Yes." He said.
"Good job! This really captures Bakura's good side!" he exclaimed.
"You really think so! Cause I thought that I could do a little more work on the teeth and facial features." He explained.
"Yeah. I think you could have done some more work on those too."
"Damn you two! I'll kill the both of you!" Bakura screamed before running after them.
"Chao's! Come here!" someone called from the front of the garden.
"Huh!" the chao's all said at once.
"I said come here!" the person screamed.
The chao's quickly ran over to the person. When they sat down in front of the person, they saw that it was Aidunno.
"Hey, guys!" she said cheerfully.
"Oh noooo…" the chao's said in union.
"Guess what?" she asked them all.
"You're leaving forever!" Bakura said hopefully.
"We can plow your head into the ground!" Yugi said with an evil smile on his face.
"I can chop your head off with this sword!" Joey said with a sword in his hands. The sword look liked it had dried blood on it.
"I can hit you over the head with a 1000 lb. weight!" Marik said with a weight behind his back.
"Noooooo. I've decided to enter you guys in a Chao race!" she said happily.
After this sentence she received blank stares from all the chao's. She started to hear crickets in the back round. She sighed.
"Let's just go! This way! Follow me!" she said while leading the chao's to the Chao race.
They entered through a waterfall in the garden.
"Who are you?" an omochao asked.
"I'm the author, Aidunno and I'm here to enter these chao's into a race," she told the omochao.
"Please tell me the chao's names." The robotic omochao said.
"We have Yugi, Yami, Joey, Tea, Tristen, Duke, Malik, Marik, Bakura and Ryou." She told the omochao.
"Thank you. Please proceed to the race through those doors," the omochao said in a robotic tone.
The chao's walked through the double doors and lined up at the starting line.
"Okay, just so you guys know. I've entered you guys into an obstacle race. Good luck!" Aidunno said before going into the stands.
"This is bad." Yugi said.
Something flashed in front of them. It read "READY". Then something else flashed. It read "SET". And a last word flashed in front of them. It read "GO!". The race was off. The chao's all ran at the same time. About 10 feet up ahead they all stopped at some weird boxes that had question marks on them. They looked at the boxes and touched them. A few seconds later the boxes opened. Some held nothing, while others had skull things that popped out at them. The chao's that had skulls in their boxes were Tea, Malik, Marik and Tristen. Everyone else ran after they figured out that their boxes were safe.
"EPP!" Tea screamed as her box opened.
"Ahhhhh!" Tristen yelled from his lane.
"Huh?" Malik and Marik said together, "What's so scary about this?"
They continued the race while Tea and Tristen laid there on the ground unconscious. The other chao's were way ahead of the four who were stopped by the boxes. Yugi was currently in the lead with Bakura and Yami on his tail.
"I'm gonna win!" Yugi yelled into the air.
"Not for long you little brat!" Bakura yelled from behind him.
They came to a cliff. Only sense they were busy spouting insults and random things to each other, they did not notice the cliff. They fell off the cliff in a very comical fashion. They all flapped their wings helplessly. They fell into the river below. They started to hear Aidunno's voice over a loud speaker.
"Hey, guys! I've decided to be the commentator for this race! Well it looks as if Tea and Tristen are out of the running on account of those accursed "Jerk-in-the-boxes"! I knew those things were no good. Malik and Marik seemed to have survived them though. Oh no! Yugi, Bakura and Yami have fallen off the cliff! Can their little wings support them!" Aidunno cried from over the loud speaker.
Yugi flapped his wings as hard as he could. They fell into the river. Seeing as how Yugi was the only one who could swim he swam across the river while Yami and Bakura waved their arms to get across the river. Yugi started to climb the mountain that lay ahead of him. He climbed to the top. It turns out that Joey was able to fly across the canyon. He climbed the short distance of the mountain. When he reached the top he saw many trees filled with fruit.
"Food…" he said in an awed voice.
He went over to the first tree and shook some fruit down. Yugi ran ahead. At that moment Yami and Bakura reached the top of the mountain. They ran passed Joey and the fruit.
"This is bad! It looks like Joey has given into the chao fruits! Can he get back in the race! Probably not but we can still hope!" Aidunno said over the speaker.
At the beginning of the cliff we see Malik and Marik.
"You go first."
"No you go first."
"But I insist that you go first."
"No. I'm telling you that it would be better if you went first."
The two continued to argue not giving in. Then the fighting started. They got into a dust cloud fight.
"Looks like Malik and Marik have gotten into a fight about who will go over the cliff first! Malik look out for his right punch! Marik! Don't use the left hook! Use the right! The right! Oh sorry. Hehe. Back to the race. The only contestants still in the race are… Yami, Yugi, Bakura, Duke and Ryou. Who will win! No-one knows!" She yelled into the mike.
The chao's come up to a small river. They all jump in. It also turns out that while Bakura was chasing Yami and Yugi, Ryou learned to swim. Yugi and Ryou are neck an neck in the river. Yami, Bakura, and Duke start to thrash there arms around.
"Oh no! It looks like only Ryou and Yugi can swim across the river!" Aidunno yelled.
"I'm gonna win!" Yugi screamed.
"No! I'm gonna win!" Ryou yelled.
They both get out of the river safely. Bakura, Yami, and Duke make it to the other side a few minutes later. They all run down a mountain side. It twists around into a clearing. Different colored lights are flashing a picture of a square fruit. They stop for a second. They look around and see different fruits but only a few square fruits. Yugi walks up to one and picks it up. He walks to the other side and a "ding" noise goes off. He runs down. Ryou does the same thing. Yami, Duke, and Bakura don't have the same luck. They each pick up something other then a square fruit. When they get to the other side it makes a sound that will go off when you answer something wrong. An omochao then drops down and hits them on the head. They are then knocked unconscious.
"It looks like Duke, Yami, and Bakura are out of the race! It all comes down to the last stretch! Who will win! Yugi or Ryou!" She yelled over the mike.
They run ahead and jump off a miniature cliff and into the last river. They swim ahead with all their might. It's a close race. They reach the end of the river and start to run. They reach the finish line. They each go on a different colored track. When they're half way there Yugi falls into a pit. Ryou goes past the finish line and wins.
"And Ryou is the winner! Yugi comes in second with Yami, Bakura, and Duke tying in third!" Aidunno screams over the loud speaker.
"I won! Go me! Woo-hoo!"
