Author's note: I'd like to take the opportunity to thank Evil Furby Queen, thanks you've been reviewing this story since the very beginning.

I also found out that I find it extremely hard to make fun of the females of the cast. I don't know why but it's so much easier to write humor for the guys. I wonder why?

Reviewers:

All I want for Christmas Chapter 14: Jolly old Saint Seto Clause

Yugi and the others followed Kaiba and Mokuba down the mall's empty corridors. The small duelist thought it felt strange to see a place, despite the festive decorations, that was normally so lively seem so desolate and foreboding, however it could have just been Kaiba's mood that made the atmosphere of the mall so dreary. Having been reminded of his other wager with Mokuba, Kaiba had become, if possible, even less eager to be in the presence of the others.

"Hey Kaiba, I was wondering what it is we're suppose to be doing here?" Yugi ventured to ask a question.

It was the younger Kaiba brother who answered, even though it was directed at the older of the siblings. "The dinner tonight is no big deal, just a bunch of Domino's wealthiest that we'll need people to wait in."

"Any half-wit can do that." Seto Kaiba interrupted, "Which reminds me, Grace," he called over to the woman from before, "make a note to put Mr. Wheeler on bathroom duty."

"What!" Joey was about to protest, but was stopped by Tristan.

"Easy man."

"It's very boring, but the profit goes to the orphanage." Mokuba continued.

"You mean the kids that are coming here." Tea pointed out.

"Yep, they have so little we wanted to give them a day when it's all about them." Mokuba said, voice full of passion.

"You seem to care about this event very much." Isizue said.

"You could say it holds ahem sentimental value." Kaiba said stiffly.

"This orphanage is the one me and Seto grew up in, before we were adopted." Mokuba explained.

"I see."

"As for right now," Mokuba continued. "Seto has transformed the mall into a Winter Wonderland. Most of the stores are closed, but a few are open with games and events for the kids. There's also food and presents, basically we need you here to keep an eye on the kids while they have some fun."

"Sounds easy enough." Mai commented.

"Don't be so sure," Tristan spoke up, "I have a little nephew and he might look innocent but he's not."

"How hard can it be Tristan?" Duke asked.

"It can't be any worse then living with a psychotic yami," Malik added.

"You can say that again." Ryou agreed.

"Bakura isn't psychotic, just sadistic." Malik pointed out.

"Yes, but he has the ability to drive me insane." Ryou's comment earned himself a few chuckles from most of the group.

This was around the time Kaiba stopped the group in front of a large fountain. "All right, now it's time to choose your costumes."

"Costumes!"

Somewhere on the Streets of Domino

"Bakura slow down!" Marik yelled trying to catch up to the thief.

"Come on Marik I've seen slugs move faster!" the white haired spirit taunted.

"What are we doing anyway?" the tanned psychopath asked annoyed.

"Following the Pharaoh."

"Why does following the Pharaoh involve running?"

"Give it a rest Marik." Bakura said while turning a corner. Marik growled and trotted after him. As soon as he turned the corner he slammed into the thief who had stopped in his tracks.

They both lay on the ground. "Get off me you idiot!" Bakura grunted

"Well I'm not the one who just stopped in the middle of the side-walk!" Marik countered. After they both picked themselves up and brushed off as best they could, Marik asked, "Why did you stop anyway?"

"Found Yami."

A not so pleasant grin spread across Marik's face as both he and the tomb robber walked over to Yami. The spirit of the puzzle seemed a bit confused as to where he was, he kept gazing down the road, to his left then right, in a vain attempt to find his bearings.

"What are you doing Pharaoh?" Marik asked.

"None of your concern. Go away please." Yami said trying not to show his irritation since Marik would only enjoy it.

"Stop being such a stick and tell us where you're off to." Bakura said.

"Fine, I'm going to the mall, happy now?"

"Ah yes, the giant market-place of modern times. There should be lots of people there that I can…" Bakura trailed off at Yami's glare, "relieve of unwanted items." He finished.

"Do you know where it is?" Yami asked.

"Nope."

Marik had gotten annoyed at being ignored for so long. "You fools it's that way!" He shouted pointing to the right.

"Really?"

"Yes you imbecile."

"Thank you!" and with that the Pharaoh was off one again.

Marik stood dumbfounded. "Bakura," he said slowly, "did the Pharaoh just thank me?"

Bakura nodded his head.

"For doing something nice?"

Another node.

"No! Help me, I'm becoming 'gasp' good!"

Smack

Bakura slapped his fellow yami across the face. "Get a hold of yourself man!"

Marik shook himself, "Right, let's cause a little mayhem, shall we?"

Domino Mall

"Here." Kaiba said, thrusting out his hand, which held several short sticks.

"What's the deal Kaiba?" Joey asked.

"Isn't it obvious mutt? We're going to choose by lottery to see which one of us gets which costume, and where they are assigned." Kaiba's voice held obvious annoyance, weather it was because he had to explain himself to Joey or because he was stuck participating as well, the others weren't sure.

Five Minuets Later

The group had split up to go to the two separate changing rooms, and began to emerge.

Yugi was the first to come out of the rooms; he was wearing the garb of a shepherd. A cloth wrapped around his head hid his normal hairstyle, and he held a staff in his hand.

Serenity was next; she was wearing a white dress, wings and a halo.

"Wow Serenity! You look great in that angle costume."

"Thanks Yugi."

At that, a small stampede came from the boy's side as both Tristan and Duke came charging out.

"Guys?" Yugi asked.

Duke was done up as a wooden soldier, complete with a tall black hat and a fake rifle.

Tristan didn't fair as well as Devlin, his costume consisted of a brown body suit, antlers, and a red nose.

"Sorry I took so long Serenity." Duke said, "Rudolph was blocking my way."

Tristan merely stood next to Yugi and glared.

"It's ok Duke, a lot of the others aren't even out yet." Serenity said with a smile.

Tea came out next, she wore an off-white dress that reached down to her knees. It looked like one of those ice-skating outfits that the competitors would always wear.

"What are you supposed to be Tea?" Yugi asked.

"A Sugar-plume fairy, according to the tag in the costume's bag." The girl answered with a soft smile.

"Uggh!" came a voice from the girl's side.

"What was that?" Tristan asked.

"Probably Mai, I think she got stuck with the Mrs. Clause outfit." Tea said.

"Mai stuck in a Granny outfit! This I got to see!" Tristan declared.

Mai was in the Mrs. Clause outfit, but not in the traditional kind.

"Mai you look great!" Serenity commented.

Her blond hair still came down in tumbles under a Santa hat, her red velvet skirt only reached down to her thighs, her top was a midriff, that showed about as much cleavage as any of her other shirts, and high heeled boots that reached up to her knees, was what made up Mai's outfit. All this was toped off with white gloves and white fur trim.

"Miss. Valentine, that is not the costume we've assigned you." Grace spoke up in clear outrage.

"I've improved it Hon." Mai stated matter-of-factly.

"Hey guys." Said Mokuba, bounding up to them, "Where's everyone else? The kids are going to be here soon."

"I am not coming out like this!" came Joey's voice, "This is degrading!"

"Come on Joey! You don't hear me complaining." This was Malik's voice.

"That's because you got a better costume!" Joey countered.

Soon both boys came out from behind the curtain, Joey being dragged by the Egyptian.

Malik's costume was similar to Duke's, except he had a fake saber tied to his belt instead of a riffle.

Joey on the other hand, looked like a wade of cotton.

"Awww!" came the voices of the three girls present.

"That's it! I'm changing." Joey declared.

"Relax Joey, I think you make a very cute sheep." Tristan teased.

Joey instantly calmed down upon seeing his friend, "Well I guess I could have made out worse."

"Watch it." The brunet warned.

"You look like a deformed unicorn in that get up Tris."

"Hey Joey!"

"What?"

"Bahhhh!"

"Why I out to!" Joey lunged and tackled Tristan. At one point the blond had hit Tristan on the nose, causing it to light up, temporally blinding them both.

"Ahh! My eyes!"

"I just received a call, the buses caring the children have arrived." Grace said to those who had gathered. "Where's Mr. Kaiba?"

"Right here."

And there in all his glory, Seto Kaiba stood in a big red suit, complete with black boots, white beard, and hat. He obviously had stuffed his shirt with something, because his normally slime figure was now chunky. In fact if it weren't for the steely glare he was fixing the others with, none of the group would have recognized the C.E.O.

"Let's get this over with." And with that, Kaiba heaved over his shoulders a velvet sack, whacking Joey over the head in the process, who was quietly snickering to him self ever since Kaiba made an appearance.

"Man, can you image him as Santa?" Tristan commented to Duke.

"I didn't even think Ho,Ho,Ho, was in his vocabulary." Duke replied.

"I don't know who to feel worse for," Joey said nursing an injured skull, "Those kids for ending up with such a crappy Santa, or Kaiba for getting stuck with a job he's obviously not going to enjoy."

"Let's just remember, our fate all depends on how well Kaiba's mood is by the end of the night." Malik pointed out.

Everyone glanced at one another. "We're doomed." they all agreed.

So let's recap, the group is at the mall working at a charity event, while the yamis head for the mall. Yamis and little orphan kids, this can't be a good thing.

Just an update on how much I have done, I'm currently writing chapter 17, and I'll try to get chapter 15 up today.

Next Chapter: We will see just what kind of jobs the group members are assigned. While the yamis arrive at the mall.

Ok people review!
