Seto'sGal: Chapter twoooooooooooooooo! Um, yeah, sorry, I'm high 'cause I'm
going to Spain with my best mate the day after tomorrow, so that's Monday!
Keisha: Monday generally comes after Sunday, which generally comes after Saturday, so you don't have to bore all your readers by telling them stuff they already know!
Rea: stop being horrid! She's just excited!
Loon: yeah, we'd realized that!
Rea: stop being sarcastic!
Seto'sGal: shut up! I need to thank the reviewers for being nice!
Loon: all right, we'll shut up now.
Seto'sGal: thank you! Now, a huge thank you to everyone who reviewed, here are your replies!:
Yami Shizuka: nice idea, but I don't put Odion in my stories really, and Seto doesn't like Serenity in this story, he's only going to the protest 'cause it's all he can really do. If you think about it, if he tries writing to the government, what good is it going to actually do? You'll have to see what happens and how they get it sorted.
Konami Ishtar: thanks! I just felt in the mood to write an overly exaggerated story involving the U.S. government, and this is what rolled off my fingers! Glad it's not a load of rubbish.
BloodMistress: here's the update, by the way, I think you deserve an award! You've reviewed every chapter of every story I've written! Thank you soooooooo much! &Throws you chocolate, sweets or whatever else you want I can reasonably give you& thanks again!
Dark mage of the sea 13: George W. Bush? The ban isn't his fault directly, but I can weasel it 'round to it being inadvertently his fault. Because if he hadn't left the country in the care of...err... yeah, I haven't posted that yet, so you're going to have to keep reading to find out who he leaves in charge and what the consequences of the protest are!
Seto'sGal: well, that's the review replies done,
Keisha: finally!
Seto'sGal: Shut up! Now, enjoy the story!
Loon: you're forgetting something.
Seto'sGal: am I? Oh yeah! I don't own YGO. Now on with the fic! Enjoy!
############################## A week Later, At the protest. ################################
"I can't believe I'm here." Seto muttered as he looked around the street.
"Kaiba! Kaiba! Hey! Over here!" he turned to see Joey along with Tristen, Duke, Yugi, Yami, Ryou, Bakura, Malik, Marik, Ishizo, and Mai waving at him enthusiastically from a few meters away.
"Glad you could make it!" Joey said, skidding to a halt in front of Seto.
"Yeah! With you backing this it's sure to be a hit!" Ryou yelled.
"I get the feeling this is gonna turn into a autograph signing session actually." Mai muttered.
"Why...?" Seto said uncertainly.
"Joey went through the whole phone book, children, adults, teens, boys and girls."
"Everyone in Domino basically." Seto said in answer to Tristen's list.
"Not just Domino, Kaiba, the whole of America!" Yugi chimed in.
"Hey! You lot here for the protest?" Came a calm, American accented voice that they all knew too well.
"Yup, the whole of America." Joey grumbled, forcing a smile before turning around.
"Yeah,"
"Oh, the cheating squirt, still dueling then?" Keith said, stopping in front of Joey and eyeing him.
"Yes, Keith, I'm still dueling, you? Or did you quit after our duel?" Said the blond with a smirk. Seto raised an eyebrow.
"Why would he quit after dueling you?! Don't tell me you actually managed to beat him?!"
"Yes, Kaiba, I did. That's how I came second in the Duelist Kingdom." Joey muttered through gritted teeth.
"Cool it you lot, we're supposed to be united here!" Duke said, getting ready to separate a fight between any of the three teens. But to his surprise, Seto got there first.
"Jeez Pup, I was only kidding! I've seen him duel, I don't doubt you beat him!"
"Why you stuck up, scrawny little brat!" Keith yelled, lunging at Seto, who simply side stepped him and put a foot on the small of his back when he fell.
"Like Duke said, we're supposed to be a team." Seto said, glaring at Keith.
"I tell you! This is the right place!" came the voice of someone who sounded as though he'd just swallowed a balloon full of helium.
"And I tell you! We are on the wrong side of Domino!" came the angered voice of his companion.
"And here's Rex and Weevil." Joey said, once again forcing a smile before turning to the pair.
"You're in the right place, nice of you to come!" Joey said, still with that forced smile.
"Why did he invite all these people if he doesn't like them?" Seto muttered to Yugi who was stood next to him.
"'Cause this isn't about whose friends with who, this is about taking the government down a peg or two! They can't just go 'round banning things and getting away with it!"
"Joey! How ya doin' mate?! How's ma fisherman?"
"All's great Mako! 'part from this ban"
"Yes, I couldn't believe ma ears when I heard! Great whales of the sea! I thought this would be it!"
"Oh. My. God! There they are!"
"He looks so hot!"
"Better than in all those newspaper articles!"
"Yeah!"
"Oh shut up! Yami's way hotter!"
"No! you need you're eyes looking at!"
"Joey's just some random street punk!"
"He's still totally hot!"
"How can you not think Kaiba's the hottest?! Mouto's a squit and Wheeler looks like any average punk his age!"
"I like short guys!"
"Hot 'n' ruff! That's how I like 'em!"
"Shut up!"
"Yeah! Stop insulting my bishie!"
"Who said he was yours?!"
"Me! so hand's off!"
By this time Yami was a bright red, along with Joey, but Seto looked as though this sort of conversation was normal around him, which it was.
"I'm not that short!" Yami moaned indignantly.
"And I'm not just any old street punk!"
"Don't hear any complaints about the 'Hot 'n' Ruff' comment!" Seto smirked.
"That, Is a compliment." Joey growled, going even redder, if that was possible.
"Joey, please don't tell me they're here for the protest." Yami muttered, a pleading tone in his voice.
"They sounded as though they were looking for us." Seto replied, cringing as he heard a comment one of the girls had made about him.
"I take what I said about autographs back," said Mai with a grin,
"I think they'll be after more than that!"
"Hum." Duke muttered, looking distinctly pissed.
"What's up with you?!" Joey scowled.
"Joey, Kaiba and Yami. What the hell do you think the problem is?!"
"How can you like that sort of attention?!" Yami exclaimed, looking disbelievingly at Duke.
###################################### Half an Hour Later. ###############################
"Take that you lousy officials!" Joey yelled, grabbing another of the makeshift bombs from the bucket at his side, lighting it, and throwing it towards the White House.
"Go rot in hell!" some other random person yelled, also throwing one.
############################ On Top of a Near-by building #################################
"Kaiba! On your left! Towards Joey!" Tristen exclaimed, firing his own sniper gun repeatedly into a group of police trying to restore order.
"Got ya!" Seto yelled back, hitting the official square between the eyes.
Seto's shots were a lot more precise, so he didn't waste as many bullets hitting his targets as Tristen did, also, Tristen hit a lot of random people by accident, which Seto was trying to avoid doing at all costs.
From their vantage point, the two brunettes could see the flares of shadow magic occasionally flaring up in the midst of all the chaos. They could also pick out their friends and were making a special effort to keep the officials away from them. But they were fighting a losing battle, and they knew it.
"Well, look what we have here." Came a cool voice from behind the pair, and as they rolled over to look at whoever it was, their blood ran cold. How could they have been found?!
"You're coming with us." Another official said. And at those words, Seto and Tristen were hauled to their feet and had their guns confiscated before being ruffly shoved into a van and cuffed to some railings.
"Do you know who I am? You idiots! Let us out! We were helping you!" Seto yelled in a vain attempt to get them released, but to no avail. The officer simply scowled at them and slammed the door in their faces.
