Babysitting the Maniac

Chapter 3- The 'It's' arrival

Forty-five minutes, after the mini war between Bakura and Maith, the door bell rang. Bakura's footsteps could barely be heard as he padded down the hallway to the front door. He looked through the peephole and sighed, "Here we go," he put on a fake smile, despite the hangover he had, and opened the door, "Hi guys."

"AAAARRGH! HE'S SMILING! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! HE'S PLANNING WORLD DOMINATION!" Marik took off down the corridor outside the apartment, heading towards the elevator. He was just about to press the down button but before he could touch it, there was a ping and the elevator doors opened.

"AAAARRGH! IT'S THE BLOB!" Marik sprinted back up the corridor and hid behind Malik, who had turned bright red. The huge woman stepped off the elevator and made her way to her apartment, glaring at Marik. Bakura's face paled, passing his usual milky skin tone. After the gargantuan woman disappeared into her apartment, Malik spoke,

"Thanks again for doing –"

"That was Mrs. Yumasumi; she's the one renting us the apartment! If she kicks us out now we're coming to live with you!" Malik gulped watching Bakura stomp back inside and drop himself on the sofa scowling, but he took the open door as an invitation in so he dragged Marik in by his ear and shut the door. Maith was in the kitchen when she heard Marik pretending to be an aeroplane, running down the hallway into the living room and zooming round Bakura on the sofa, his arms out-stretched on either side of him.

"Oh so that's the 'it'." She leant against the doorframe, watching the Ishtar airliner make its way past her.

"Oh, hey, I'm Malik." He had spotted her when he entered the living room, and he held his hand out for her to shake.

"Hey, I'm Maith, Ryou's stepsister." She took his hand and noted how warm it was.

"I'm really sorry for having to dump my yami on you but, I really cant take him to the museum with me, not after what he did last time."

"Why, what did he do?" Bakura had gotten up and joined them, bored of watching Marik run around in circles.

"Well first he booby-trapped the entrance, so that when somebody opened the door they would get crushed under a giant vase, then he got in a fight with the floor buffer."

"Really, who won?" Bakura asked smiling as Maith laughed.

"The floor buffer, it was a nightmare trying to get the wax out of his hair." Malik shook his head, clearly ashamed, as Bakura laughed and Maith just blinked. "Marik, I'm going now!" Malik called to the yami, who was currently lying on the floor counting the ceiling tiles.

"NO!" he got up and clung to Maliks leg, "DON'T LEAVE ME HERE WITH THE FREAKS!"

"Look who's talking Marik" Bakura growled.

"Who?" Marik let go of Malik's leg and began to look around, "Who's talking?"

"Quick go, before he notices." Maith whispered to Malik and pushed him towards the door.

"I'll see you around five to pick him up." He said before Maith shut the door. She walked back into the living room to see Marik sitting on the floor eating a cookie.

"Bakura, I thought Malik said no sugar."

"And since when do I do as I'm told?" It's just one, what harm can it do?"

"I don't know, he's your friend's psycho pet."

"I gotta go pee!" Marik piped up.

"Well you know where the bathroom is." Bakura said, twisting the lid back onto the cookie jar. Marik skipped to the bathroom and Bakura hid the cookie jar in a cupboard, "Just in case." He said as Maith quirked an eyebrow. Marik came skipping back into the living room. "Did you wash your hands?" Bakura teased.

"Yep!" Marik lunged forward and ran a wet hand down the side of Bakura's face, making him cry out in disgust. Maith giggled, which caught Marik's attention and he started towards her with his wet hands out-stretched in front of him.

"LOOK, SOMETHING SHINEY!" she shouted.

"WHERE?"

"IT WENT INTO THAT ROOM!" Marik dived into the room Maith had pointed at, and she shut the door behind him, holding the door handle so he couldn't get out.

"MAITH! RYOU'S IN THAT ROOM!" Bakura pushed her aside as they heard Ryou cry out. Bakura opened the door to see Ryou sitting on the floor with Marik sitting on top of him, hugging the life out of the white-haired teen.

"Marik loves Ryou!" He said hugging Ryou tighter. Ryou whimpered.

"Marik, let go of him!" Bakura demanded, seeing Ryou's face turn slightly purple.

"NO! MY RYOU!" Marik dragged Ryou up and hugged him tighter still.

"LOOK, SOMETHING SHINEY!" Maith shouted again.

"WHERE?" Marik abandoned Ryou, who was stood spluttering and gasping for air, and bounced up to Maith.

"IT WENT UNDER THE SOFA!" Marik dived for the sofa.

"This is going to be harder than I thought." Bakura said hugging Ryou gently.

Maith went into the living room and said "What do you want to do today Marik?" Marik stopped looking for the shiny thing and thought for a moment, cocking his head to one side.

"I wanna feed the ducks!" he shouted after a minute.

"Oh okay," Maith was taken aback, "Lets go buy some bread and feed the ducks."

"YAY!" Marik then began darting round the room shouting quack at the top of his voice.

Okay I'm done now, what did you think? sorry I don't have much time, I'm going out in a few minutes and I haven't actually done my hair, so I gotta hurry. Bye bye. Please review
