Anzu sighed. It was Tuesday evening. More fighting with Ryou in about three hours. She had some time, since her homework was done.

"Hey, Mokuba!" She called. She got a vague answer from another room. "Wanna go get some ice cream?"

There was an exclamation, a slammed door, and quick footsteps. Nanoseconds later, Mokuba appeared. "Let's go!" He said, racing off down the stairs.

*
They headed off to the ice cream parlor near Domino Park. It wasn't too busy today.

"So, what are you going to order?" Anzu asked her cousin.

Right off the bat, he answered, "A cone with a scoop of triple chocolate, double strawberry, vanilla, with caramel and fudge and whipped cream, plus a cherry on top!"

Anzu mock-frowned. "Can you eat all of that?"

"Yup!" Mokuba noticed the look on her face. "Just kidding. One scoop of triple chocolate'll be fine."

*

They came out of the store with their ice creams—a double-scoop of triple chocolate and one blackberry.

Mokuba might get on a sugar-high again, Anzu thought, watching her over-energetic cousin, and not watching where she was going. Until... she ran into somebody. Or should I say, somebodies.

"Sorry," Anzu apologized absently. "Did I get ice cream on you?"

It wasn't till Anzu looked up, then she saw who she was talking too.

Marik. The others hadn't noticed, because Yami was talking to Bakura, who was walking backwards, and Ryou was studying the ground with great interest. Actually, only Malik of 'the others' noticed. And he had pretended not to, and decided to watch Mokuba instead.

"Well, well, well." Marik said softly. "If it isn't Anzu. What a coincidence."

Some coincidence, Anzu thought, but she didn't say so. She glanced over at Mokuba, who was either acting like he wasn't listening, or was truely oblivious to the whole thing. "What are you guys doing here?"

"Don't we have a right to roam around like any ordinary people?"

"Sure you do, but I'd say you're far from ordinary." Anzu replied. She heard stifled laughter from the right. Malik.

Marik shot a Look towards Malik. Before he could say anything, Mokuba had gone over and tugged on Yami's sleeve saying, "Are you the guy who was making out with Anzu on the couch Saturday?"

Anzu's face would've made a fox blush. Trust Mokuba to put on his innocent-little-kid act right now.

Bakura snickered. Yami looked blank.

Marik wound his arm around Anzu. "Drop the damn guy and go out with me." He ran a hand through his spiked hair, which only made a few spikes fall over, "I'm a helluva lot sexier."

Malik whistled and looked the other way as he got hit by another Look. "Er..." Anzu said. She couldn't think of anything else.

"Really. See, Yami's an idiot, Bakura's an evil bastard, and Ryou's too shy to say anything. That leaves me and my baby cous'. And you should pick me, because—"

Anzu never found out why, because Yami, Bakura, Malik, and Ryou jumped him. That attracted a lot of stares from passersby.

So, she grabbed Mokuba and took him home.

Hehehe... even Ryou...
I dunno about the ending to this chapter... I didn't know what to write.
So what did you think of the little 'chat room' between Anzu and Shizuka?
