DONG!
When Yugi awoke again he found himself standing in the middle of a strange classroom- or at least he assumed it was a classroom. It had desks, chairs, books, a teacher and other students, as you would normally have expected in a classroom. But the room was very small, the books old and dusty and with his semi-bald head and dull grey robes the teacher looked more like a humble monk.
DONG!
Yugi was snapped out of his thoughts by the sound of a bell drawing the lesson to a close.
"That's all for today's lesson class." The robed man announced. "Remember; demons have appeared outside of town and if you intend to go very far, you must go with a parent."
"…Demons?" a familiar voice gulped.
It was only now that Yugi realized who his fellow classmates were, he smiled.
The boy next to him was none other than Joey Wheeler, garbed in a strange green outfit and looking around bewildered at the strange new scene. To his right was Ryou Bakura – he was the one who'd gulped.
"Oh duuude! Why'd I have to get purple?"
This was the forth boy, Tristan, who (unfortunately) really was dressed entirely in purple…bright purple at that. He shot the others a death glare as they cracked up laughing, then folded his arms.
"Well, at least I don't have some stupid band messing up my 'do." He remarked with a snicker.
"Band?" Yugi asked, looking around and finding no such hair disaster… "OH MY GOD!" he did, however, manage to find a mirror. Blue tunic, Red headband, purple flute in his pocket, it all looked eerily familiar.
"Will..."
"Will? Who's Will?" the albino asked as the teacher wandered off.
"Some guy I was talking to just before waking up here. He wished me luck for some reason."
"Wait a minute." Joey this time. "Did everyone talk to some dude before wakin' up here?" A smug grin formed on his face when the others nodded. "Well den, isn't it obvious? Dis has gotta be some sort of alternate reality and we're stuck playin' dere parts."
Out of nowhere, the screeching sound of nails against a blackboard filled the room; the boys winced and covered their ears.
"JOSEPH WHEELER!" The boy gulped. "YOU'VE GOT SOME 'SPLA-A-ANING TO DO!"
There was a flash of white light and two almost identical looking girls appeared in the middle of the classroom; one had glasses, grey eyes and folded arms, the other was bereft of frames, had bright green eyes and an evil smirk edging her lips. Both were brunettes.
"Who da heck are you two?"
"Never you mind." The smirking one snapped. The one with glasses had snuck around behind the boy and yanked a rolled up tube of paper 100 pages thick.
"Joey! Where did you get this from?"
"Gaah! Don' look at me! That guy Lance gave it to me! He said it would make things easier."
Four-eyes groaned. Smirk-face scowled.
"How much of it have you read?"
"Only the first page, I swear!"
"Wow, the boy can read. I'm shocked." Smirk-face quipped, her smirk returning.
"Hey!" he barked back.
Four-eyes sighed. "I knew I shouldn't have told him about the script…"
"You told Green-boy about the script?" Smirk-face asked, smacking the other girl in the face with said script.
"Oi! Don't hit me with my own script!"
-Cat fight ensues-
The four boys looked on from a safe distance as the girls wrestled one another for this 'script' of theirs.
"…Shouldn't someone remind them that people are reading this?" Ryou asked Yugi, both boys cringing as Smirk-face lost a tooth.
Both girls froze mid-fight and sweat-dropped.
"Oops…"
"Forgot about that…"
A quick flash of light and the girls were standing again, Smirk-face's tooth back in place and the crack in Four-eyes' glasses mended.
"Anywho, I'm going to have to find a better hiding place for this script 'o mine."
"But what about..." Smirk-face said, pointing to the boys.
"Meh, I can't be bothered to wipe their memories. Let's just go." She clicked her fingers and the two disappeared, leaving the boys standing in silence.
"… Okaaay… that was just weird…" Tristan murmured with a confused frown. "Well, who's up for some exploring?"
With a grin Joey ran off. "On-your-marks-get-set-GO!"
"No fair!" Tristan yelled, bolting after the blonde. The two remaining boys sweat-dropped.
"We should probably go and make sure they don't do something stupid."
Yugi chuckled. "Yeah…you're probably-"
DONG!
"…Yugi?"
"Why's that bell still going off? Class finished a while ago."
Ryou raised an eye brow. "I don't hear anything."
DONG!
"How can you not hear that? It just did it again!"
"Yugi, I'm not hearing any bells." The albino insisted.
Yugi frowned. "Well I certainly do. You go catch up with the others; I'm going to check this out."
Ryou shrugged and walked off. "Suit yourself."
DONG!
"How can he not here that…?" he muttered to himself, deciding to try one of the other doors in the room - this one leading the way up a flight of stairs…
CGoW: -rubbing sore cheek- Ooow…did you really have to slap the script at my face?
Kimmie: Did you really have to punch my tooth out of my mouth?
CGoW: Yes! Do you have any idea how much these glasses cost me? –le sigh- Ok, forget it. Let's just wrap this chapter up, shall we?
Kimmie: -shrugs- Whatever.
CGoW: Ok then… –to readers- R'n'R guys! Next chapter is on it's way.
