A/N: For all of you who have waited so long this chapter, thank you and I'm so sorry it took as long as it did! I'll try not to let it happen again. Emphasis on try. Please review!

Disclaimer: You should know by now that all we only own the hostesses.


Chapter 8 – Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

When Kurama awoke the next morning, he was no longer on his plush bed on the yacht. He found himself lying on the beach, with his fellow tribe members scattered around him.

"Good morning, Kurama! You're the first one up!"

The fox glanced around for the voice and saw the hostesses standing before him. Kishi was the one who had spoken.

"Why are we back on the beach?" he asked, still a bit groggy from having just woken up.

"Three days and two nights was all you got, remember?" Cao said, bobbing the boy on the head in the process, probably to jog his memory.

"Oh, right," Kurama sighed.

The rest of the boys began to groan and show signs of waking.

"Well," exclaimed Fae. "It seems everyone else is waking up! Time for us to be going! See ya later!"

Kishi and Cao gave Kurama a wave before taking off. And in doing so, left Fae behind. "Hey guys! Not fair! Wait for me!" With that, the hyena sprinted off after her fellow hostesses.

Kurama gazed after the three in bewilderment as his companions woke around him. A crude shout from Kyo brought the fox back to his senses.

"How the hell did we get back here!"

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

Krad was still in a very unpleasant mood. He had woken up that morning with a stiff neck and a sore back. The hunter's stomach growled, reminding him that he had not eaten either. To top everything off, he was cold too.

"Damn bastards," he mumbled. "Leaving me tied to a frickin' tree all night."

Lady Luck did not seem to be with the blond that day as clouds gathered and it began to rain lightly. It was not a torrential downpour, but it was still enough to dampen Krad's spirits even more.

The smell of cooked rice wafted over to the soggy hunter. He looked up to see Dark standing before him holding half a coconut filled with said food.

Krad's eyes lit up. "Dark! You brought me food! Did you feel bad for me?"

The thief placed the bowl down in front of he blond. "No. Your stomach kept me up all night and I don't want it to happen again." He walked away.

Krad looked down at the rice, then at the retreating thief, then back at the rice, and back at the thief again. Then it dawned on him.

"DARK! How the hell am I supposed to eat this? My damn hands are tied!"

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

"Ahhh, I'm bored!" Kyo whined, kicking lightly at the sand.

"Why don't you go find something to do somewhere else then?" suggested Kaiba. He was fed up with the cat's constant moaning and was about ready to snap.

"Like what, jackass? There's nothing to do on this freakin' island!" With that, the orange-haired boy stalked away, much to the relief of Kaiba.

"Hey, Kyo." The boy turned upon hearing his name. Yuki was leaning on a tree at the edge of the forest. "I know something we could do," he said seductively.

"Is that so?" Kyo replied, raising an eyebrow. He knew exactly what the rat had in mind.

"Mmhmm." Yuki disappeared into the forest. A moment later, Kyo followed suite.

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

"Dark! Oh, Dark!" Watari called. "I have something for you!"

The scientist danced over to where the thief was sitting, the bubbling, hot pink liquid from the day before in his hands. "I think I've perfected my super-sex-changing-potion-antidote-thingy and it's ready for testing!"

Dark eyed the liquid suspiciously, then glared at its creator. "You think you've perfected it? You're not sure? And you expect me to drink it just like that?"

Watari shrugged. "Well, you did last time."

The thief scowled. "Don't remind me."

"C'mon, please Dark!" the blond man begged.

"Nu-uh. No way. Not the day before our first immunity challenge anyway. I don't want to end up turning into a chicken or something. And who knows how long it would be before you made another antidote! Nope, there is no way I'm drinking hat thing now."

"Fine Mrs. Fraidy-pants! Stay a girl for all I care!" With that the scientist turned and left in a huff.

Dark looked at the boys around him. "What was that all about?"

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

Kyo was getting impatient. He and Yuki had been walking for what felt like forever, and still his cousin seemed to have no plan on stopping.

"Yukiiii," he sighed. "When are we gonna get there?" Wherever there is.

Finally Yuki stopped. The cat walked around him to see where they were. It was a small clearing in the forest and the ground was covered in a soft cushy moss.

While Kyo's back was to him, the rat pounced. The unsuspecting boy fell to the ground. Quickly he rolled onto his back to see his cousin kneeling over him. Though he did not see what was hidden behind Yuki's back.

The rat dipped down and kissed Kyo, but then pulled away a bit too soon for the cat's liking.

It was then that he realized what Yuki had done. Being distracted by the kiss, Kyo had not noticed his cousin had bound his hands over his head to a nearby tree root using vines. He soon found the binds were tight, and the vines strong. He wasn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Yuki smiled mischievously and straddled Kyo's waist. The cat narrowed his eyes at the silver-haired boy. "Why you-"

"Hush, kitten," Yuki interrupted, placing a finger on Kyo's mouth before replacing it with his own lips.

Again, Yuki pulled away too soon for Kyo, but being tied as he was, there was nothing he could do. Yuki was in control.

The rat smirked down at his cousin. This was going to be fun.

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

Hisoka groaned, stuffing his handy-dandy earplugs-made-out-of-leaves tighter in his ears. The horrible, deathly sound still made it into his poor auditory nerves, which were silently screaming in pain.

It was all that stupid ex-fight merchant's fault, the young shinigami decided. His awful attempts at playing the guitar were ruining the beautiful morning. The rain had stopped a while before, leaving an amazing, picturesque sky.

"He's not very good, is he?" asked Tsuzuki with a grin, speaking rather loudly in order to be heard over the racket.

"No, really?" snapped Hisoka sarcastically. He fished around for the bag of rice and shook it, frowning. "We're running out of food."

The older shinigami fainted.

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

"Yuki and Kyo have been gone for a long time… again!" exclaimed Bakura.

"I wouldn't recommend looking for them," Kurama said with a smile.

Sessho-maru gave an undignified snort that just barely qualified as laughter. Of course, this instantly reminded T-chan of a certain tape recorder, which he quickly pulled out of an invisible pocket. He pushed the play button…

…and everything went silent, except for a high-pitched giggling noise.

A very noticeable blush stained Sessho-maru's cheeks as he recognized the sound and who it had come from. He began to back away slowly.

All eyes turned to him, and he gulped, "You don't understand…" he gasped out in shock.

By this time, everyone else was rolling on the ground laughing their heads off. (Yes, even Kaiba and Hiei.)

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

Even Hiro was beginning to regret ever letting Sanosuke touch his guitar. Shuichi played better than the fight merchant, and Shuichi couldn't play for beans!

But poor Hiro hadn't come up with Hisoka's ingenious ear-plug solution yet, and wasn't as laid-back as Tsuzuki, so he had to suffer through the racket. He was considering banging his head repeatedly on the nearest tree by the time Sano stopped.

Krad, who had somehow managed to untie himself (with an intricate scheme involving his wings, rubber ducks, and a bowl of rice), had smacked Sano upside the head with the guitar, laying him flat. The hunter was sighing in great relief when he was bombarded on all sides by his teammates, each offering their own thanks for the service. All the teammates, that is, except for Dark, who was still angry, and Watari, who had vanished as usual.

Krad didn't mind all that much.

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

Now that Sessho-maru had gone into hiding, the rest of the boys settled into a gloomy state of boredom. Although they were on a mysterious tropical island, which was almost completely unexplored, they sat there, boredly, on the beach.

"I wonder what's going on back home?" asked Yuki. He and Kyo had returned a while earlier.

As if on cue, Fae pooped out of nowhere. "You'll never guess what I say on the news!" she shrilled.

"What?" all the boys cried simultaneously.

"Darth Vader was seen robbing the grocery store! Only Cheeseman, Bubbles and Copy Cat could stop him from completing his dastardly scheme!" Fae squealed in delight and charged off down the beach.

"I'm confused," said Bakura.

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

Hisoka now regretted ever telling Tsuzuki they were running out of food. His partner, after having woken back up, was now bouncing around Hisoka in a panic. And it was bugging the hell out of the young shinigami. Would he ever get any peace and quiet on this damned island?

From the looks of things, the answer was no.

After a few more minutes of a hyper-panicked Tsuzuki, Hisoka had had enough.

"Would you shut the hell up already!" the boy exploded. "There's plenty to eat on this island! We'll survive!"

Tsuzuki blinked in surprise at his partner's outburst.

"Y-You mean…" he started. "You mean we'll have to find food ourselves?"

Hisoka sighed and turned to walk away, mumbling, "Why me?"

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

"Darth Vader's not real. He's a fictional character made up by some nut-job with an over active imagination," reasoned Kaiba. "There's no way he could rob a grocery store."

"You never know, Kaiba," Bakura replied, "There are a lot of things that happen that we can't explain."

"There's an obvious explanation to this. It's just some idiot in a costume."

The white-haired boy looked skeptical. "I don't know, Kaiba… I doubt it would take Cheeseman, Bubbles and Copy Cat to take down some idiot in a costume."

The CEO sighed and was about to reply when Fae, once again, appeared out of nowhere.

"This just in!" she cried. "A giant space ship shaped like some sort of ball just came down out of the sky, broke Darth Vader out of jail, and flew off into space again!" She burst into a giggle fit as she bounced into the jungle.

Kaiba blinked in slight shock, grasping what the hyena had said and Bakura smiled smugly. I guess some things really couldn't be explained.

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

There was one other absent as Krad was being congratulated by the tribe. Due to his very sensitive wolf ears, Koga had bolted at the first note Sano stuck. He ran, and he ran as fast and as far as he possibly could. Though, somehow along the way, he had gotten… lost.

Even he didn't know how he had managed to get lost. After wandering in what he thought was the direction of camp for about an hour, Koga noticed that a certain rock in a clearing was starting to look very familiar. That's when it hit him.

He had been walking in circles!

The wolf slapped himself for being such an idiot. He decided to try again, but this time pa closer attention, only to find that the moment he had walked a few feet into the jungle, he somehow walked into the same clearing. He had appeared on the opposite side of it from where he had left!

Once more, he walked into the jungle, but the same thing happened. He was back in the clearing.

"What the hell!" he yelled, beginning to get frustrated.

For the next couple of hours, Koga was running back and forth, in and out of the clearing, using all he had to get out of the cursed place.

Finally, the wolf collapsed of exhaustion and not before muttering a few more curses, promptly fell asleep.

Back at camp, Krad glanced around. "Hey, where's wolf-boy?"

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

Warily, Sessho-maru returned to camp, eyes searching for T-chan. He would kill the totetsu if it was the last thing he did.

Finally, he found his target about waist-deep in the ocean, staring out at the horizon. He vest lay discarded on the sand and the waves splashed his bare chest.

Sessho-maru growled and began to advance on his prey. He got to the water's edge when something stopped him. It could have been the water reflecting off T-chan's toned figure, or the serenity and calm on his face, but it stopped the dog-demon either way. He was so busy staring that he didn't notice his target turn around.

"So," the totetsu smirked after a while. "Like what you see?"

Sessho-maru's scowl returned upon hearing his voice. "You're not even worth the time it would take to kill you," he snarled as he stalked away.

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

Koga awoke to the sound of waves hitting the shore. But he wasn't anywhere near the ocean, he was in that damned clearing in the middles of the jungle, wasn't he? Not the beach.

Slowly, the wolf raised himself to his elbows to get a better around. Sure enough, he was on the beach.

"What the hell?" he breathed as he stood. "Wh-what happened? The clearing-"

"Hey! Koga!"

The wolf almost jumped upon hearing his name. Hiro was waving at him from farther down the beach.

"You've been gone hours, man. We just started looking for you. Where you been?" the guitarist asked as he drew closer to Koga.

"I-I don't know," was the reply.

Hiro eyed him strangely. "Alright, whatever, man. C'mon, let's head back, the sun's setting and it'll be dark soon."

Koga nodded and followed the boy in a daze. What the hell had happened to him that day?

Day 6 – Doompah-Didoo Tribe

"C'mon Kaiba, you're just upset because Bakura was right and you were wrong."

"I told you, I'm not upset. Now leave me alone."

"Fine," Kurama caved, "You're not upset and I'll leave you to your sulking, as long as you eat." He shoved a steaming coconut bowl of rice under the CEO's nose.

"I'm not hungry, now go the hell away."

Kurama's face grew deathly serious. "You will eat this rice, Kaiba. You will eat it and you will like it." There was no room for negotiation in his voice.

Kaiba, somewhat startled by the fox's behavior, finally took the bowl.

The redhead smiled as he took it. "Enjoy." He then turned to give out the rest of the rice.

"Wow," said T-chan, "Talk about PMS."

Day 6 – Oompah-Loompah Tribe

Now that Koga was in his rightful place, the boys could eat.

"Enjoy it," warned Hisoka. "This is the last of the rice. We're gonna have to search for food now."

There was a familiar thud as Tsuzuki fainted again.

"We should really do something about that," mentioned Krad, shaking his head at the unconscious shinigami.

"Maybe wake him up?" Koga suggested.

"No, I'd leave him." They all turned to look at Hisoka.

"But Bon!" protested Watari, "He's your partner, don't you care for his well-being?"

The young shinigami shrugged. "Of course I care, I just care slightly more about my ears falling off from his non-stop whining about the lack of food.

The rest of the boys thought a moment before agreeing that everyone would be better off leaving Tsuzuki where he was. So they continued eating as if there wasn't an unconscious man ling in the middle of them.
