Season 2; New beginning

Chapter.5: - unplanned or planned?

It took some time until everyone was at the place where they had set themselves as the next goal. As known, Joey had gone with his two friends Tristan and Otogie towards his Wheeler apartment to hang out there and at the same time to keep an eye on the two lovebirds that they were keeping their hands off his sister. The apartment was quite small but also very comfortable. It's just enough for Joey and Serenety to feel at home there and if they had guests like now, there would be a bit of a lack of space, but that's doable. To be honest, the siblings didn't really care about this point of the cretik either and it was only incidental. Yes, they had it a bit more restricted than before in their father's apartment, but if that was all they had to do without to get away from there, it was worth it. Also, they just hung out with their friends outside of their room anyway, which made things pretty dull, the important thing was that the two were fine. But his friends also tried to persuade him to get a bigger hut, even if they didn't have enough money, the point came up again and again that Kaiba could help out. But seriously, would Kaiba ever do such a social thing voluntarily? And if so, is that just because it's something he would prove or because his younger brother insisted on it. And if you're already talking about him, Joey would bet at any price that his previous condition of a conversation didn't have much else in the background that was only intended to lead to his own purposes. He wouldn't know him any other way.

But with Kaiba's current openness, the conversation turned out differently than you would normally expect from him. Exactly what different might mean is undefinable but for his cold heart it just wasn't kaiba's usual action. Kaiba had preferred to escort the three to a more private location as the conversation was not intended for civilized and normal citizens' ears. He invited her to an extravagant cafe where only the finery or the snooty crowd would linger. This was also immediately recognized by the structure of this cafe, which was only dressed up with expensive-looking decorations and ornaments as well as furnishings. Everything that was offered screamed that it was so expensive that normal earners would go bankrupt just to set foot in it once. After checking in, one of the waiters led them in the direction of a four-person seat and gave them each a home-issued card before he went on to meet the next customer. The waiters were happy to keep their customers waiting for a while before coming back to continue the service. During this long period of time, customers had more than enough time to think carefully about their order. And they didn't want to push their customers - that would speak against the prosperity of this cafe. They looked at the menu one after the other to find out what there was to choose from in this cafe and then, more incidentally, the price. What was good is that the CEO of kaiba corb is paying anyway, so it wouldn't matter anyway. Everyone looked at the card that was lying in front of their eyes and immediately saw that it was only a somewhat rough description, which is not unusual since such cards are only marked with the name of the dish, its component food and the corresponding amount. This card was divided into the categories: Cakes, Drinks, Pastries, Desserts and a category called Other.

They quickly came to a conclusion and got through the formality of ordering and collection before moving on to the interview. Their decision wasn't difficult for anyone, Seto only took a black coffee from the drinks area with no sugar and no milk, Malik took a large piece of crumble cake and a middle piece of chocolate cake from the cake category and one in addition The drinks department brought a matching caputchino with it, Ryou took a tea part with chocolate-covered pastries. Like Malik and Seto, Yami also took a coffee that, like Kaiba, had a complete black coffee with milk and sugar. He also wanted to get something extra because he somehow had a feeling that the whole thing here would take longer and he didn't really eat much that day apart from this morning's breakfast which he had tasted from Maliks. Paying attention to the food choices he could easily say that he didn't know too much about it and I guess he was around 35% of the things that say he knew it or at least had heard of it. Since he didn't want to limit his selection to this low level, he also went over to the dishes that were strange to him and could only either fish out something on the off chance that at least sounded good or simply ask Ryou what the whole thing is. His choice was still indecipherable even after showing the whole card so he had simply taken one of Ryou's recommendations which is considered a tradition in every UK household on a holiday in December. According to Ryou, this undefinable thing was called Plum Pudding. He didn't want to be rude and was happy to try the dish Ryou showed him that he should try even if it seemed a bit strange for the time. Yami didn't really understand why, but he still had to warm up to this topic of traditions and holidays and their meanings.

The waiter came after all the arrangements and took everyone's order and then served it to them after 15 minutes. He first gave his order to Ryou, who was sitting next to Yami, whose dish was handed over afterwards. Then Malik got his portion too, sitting across from Ryou and next to Seto. In the end, the waiter only gave Seto the food he had ordered and he paid for it in order to limit the waiters' disruption. After everyone had theirs and had already been paid, they had more than enough time to find out about Kaiba's business, which he must still be pushing ahead. The conversation began, it was about different areas that he wanted to have clarified. Sometimes it was more personal stuff sometimes it was business related but he never showed any interest in it, it seemed like he was doing it for someone he cared about like Mokuba. Seto had always had a soft heart for his little brother and that was the only person he would ever show his weak side to if he didn't have the protective instinct for Mokuba. And if you didn't know better, you knew from his attitude that he was kind of worried about his brother, like he always does when he doesn't know what Mokuba is doing. Yami can understand that in his eyes, he would probably feel the same way if he didn't know what his Aibou was doing or where he was, because you never know. Anything could happen and the thought of something happening to him when his protector wasn't by his side would kill him inside as just the thought would cripple with worry. Well, the addition of the bullying was because his light is smaller than normal teens and doesn't convey actions like ten year olds, but that's exactly what he loved about his Aibou. And it wouldn't be much different with Mokuba. He only had the advantage that his brother is known among the people and the risk is somewhat reduced but you never know. Furthermore, Ryou would also fall into this path, but he hadn't been known to be physically hurt by others as his Yami always did. And as far as the last Hikari in this topic was concerned, you can say that he is not bullied but rather assessed as a bully. However, since he actually only adopts bully-like behaviors, he came across the reason for self-protection that he has learned to apply over the years, regarding the pain and confusion inside his newfound heart of love and acceptance. Also, he didn't have to worry about the two younger ones because he knew they were in good hands if the two older ones didn't do anything stupid, they behaved very peacefully.

After the group separated in pairs, they also left the schoolyard minutes later. But their group also split up as soon as Kaiba drum asked to talk to three of them who unexpectedly turned out to be Yami, Bakura and Marik. But it was also not uncommon for the two psychos to resist and instead their Hikaris entered the offer or rather the request for them. So they all left Yami, Malik and Ryou along with Seto Kaiba doing whatever he was up to. They took the younger Kaiba brother with them so as not to leave him alone and to avoid having Seto's head ripped off in the end if something happened to Mokuba. So, Bakura and Marik, in order to watch out, went down the path to their abode with Mokuba and Yugi. It had been midday when they all parted and had infinitely much time to occupy themselves before they were together again. So they had to find something to successfully bridge the time. The only thing they did on the way home was to visit one of the accessible parks and the one that was right next to their house. In his park they made a short detour to take the opportunity to get an ice cream sundae in the ice hut inhabited there, but only the two smaller ones took the chance anyway. The two smaller ones, Yugi and Mokuba, went there first to order their portions while the two larger ones, Marik and Bakura, indulged themselves in a spot under a tree in the shade, which is anchored to a bench. Her need wasn't exactly great to pay much attention to the other two, to keep an eye on them, yes, to be overly careful like babysitters, no. More like minders. But who cares how it is interpreted exactly, they don't.

Meanwhile, while Marik and Bakura are using their asses to lounge on the bench to study the strange human sacrifices here, the two younger ones get their desserts. Yugi got a shock ball and a vanilla ball for himself. Mokuba got a smurf ball and a strawberry ball. Beaming, both chose one of the free spots and planted themselves happily. They talked lightly between all the licking and enjoying the sweet taste that occasionally gave them brain freezes. The only thing that broke the ranks from time to time were all the children screaming out loud, which raised the suspicion that the two yamis nearby were bullying the children in the area. It took about an hour until they had finished eating their ice cream and then planned to check on the yamis but before that they made a purchase together for the rest of their way home. They bought an extra large portion of ice cream at the ice cream stand that was so large that it could only be stored in a pot, or at least in a container similar to a top big. From which easily 8 people could snack. After the purchase and the stowage, they went to find the two Yamis to start the way back together. When they got home it was only 4:45 p.m. so they still had plenty of time to kill, still. Bakura and Marik both initially gave simple rules about not disturbing them in any kind of noise or anything but this was forgotten 5 minutes later.

Their current place of Yugi and Mokuba was kept simple. Because for another hour they spent this time in Yugi's room on the dormitory floor to talk about simple things of their lives as before. Whose topic was Mokuba first, Yugi asked Mokuba how his scholarship at school was going and if he will accept the progress that is due to him as well as if he had decided which courses he would take. Mokuba then told him about his current school situation and how things are going with the tests and also in general the comparison of the scholarship with the normal school. Mokuba sat cross-legged on the bay window that existed in the house so that he had a good view of the distance. "Thanks for your interest Yugi, really I owe you and the other two for making it possible for me to get this chance!" His expression looked cheerful, decorated with a faint smile. Yugi, listening attentively, sat on the right edge of his bed lying in the middle his fingers connected to the other hand and formed like a tent so that his wrist bones supported on the bed floor and his clitoral mass tensed. His face also happy " I speak on behalf of us hikaris when I say it now It's a matter of course for us to give you a helping hand." "Which I really appreciate and that I'm always with you no matter what happens." *sigh* "Well anyway...I have to say it everything that is related to the school is going pretty teachers are very nice and understanding when it comes to course, the adults sometimes run away but I can live with that. It may happen from time to time that there are those who reject the scholarship system and do not accept it, which is why they put you on an equal footing with the others in terms of the teaching material, but there is nothing that causes me problems either. However, if there were problems, the director had offered to initiate a procedure to inspect and analyze the problem in question and then find the appropriate solution. And besides, I'd still have you and my brother if there was a problem, who would take care of the event himself to eliminate it." There was a short pause for a sip to sip his drink. "And if I were to relate all of this to my performance I would rate myself as an average of 2. So if I continue to be lucky and the scholarship holder ends in the coming months, I will probably be here permanently, just with advantages, isn't that great!" His face was beaming with anticipation and he got a nod back from his friend as a reaction, which meant "hmmm hmmm", who also radiates the same enthusiasm as he does himself hates page." "Yes, that's right."

With that connection, the subject moved on to the area of Kaiba Corb's work in which they are integrated. The relationship between employer and worker was actually equal in their approach to the project. So, among the five of them, there wasn't really anyone who called the shots, just someone who took the lead in some situations, but otherwise everyone had equal rights. Your project is and will remain top secret for outsiders, even employees remained in the dark except for the authorized people working on it, they are the only ones. In their conversations, which they also sometimes had in public, only minor information came out about it, but it was always difficult to understand what it was about because it mostly sounded like a code symbolized language, for example like; That there is a keeper, a snitch, a henchman, a procurer, a lieutenant and an admiral but what with this name recognition and in the context of which it is used one can become aware that it is a secret language. But hey, if it's really an important project it would be the worse as it progresses the more people know about it, right?

There was a pause from then until they both finished their cups, after which they went downstairs to get something to eat. Time flew by since they had eaten something real. And they would have to trot down anyway so that would be a good time. So below they prepared the dish that will be a delicious and simple delicacy but the result is in the clouds. So once in between, Yugi looked outside and then with a slight swing at the clock that is integrated into the oven. A sigh escaped him. Since it seemed like it would be a while before the others would come home to pick up Seto Mokuba, they still have to make the best of it. Then the momentum went back to the starting point, namely there where cooking is done. Mokuba noticed the thoughtful expression on Yugi's face and could understand what was triggering it. His mind quickly kicked in and suggested that as soon as they were done here they could check on the others and offer them something to eat as well. Agreeing, they set to work finishing the rest before heading over.

Meanwhile, Marik and Bakura are in one of the upstairs rooms of the house that was set up as one of the 'leisure' rooms. This room is a stink normal to the other leisure rooms, which is mostly only intended for normal card games or it is also often used for game evenings because this is also the largest leisure room at the same time. So it is unavoidable that things from the other rooms end up here, but in general every room keeps its systematic way, like this one with all the card games. In addition, as is known, there were other leisure rooms, one only equipped with electronic game consoles and another room with classics such as darts, table football and stuff like that. And right now, the two of them were right there, and who would have thought, playing their number one game of Yu-Gi-Oh against each other. What seemed to some to be a simple game of friendship, for the two of them it was a game of reality to defend their dignity from what happened earlier when they each wanted to take over the world. And right now things weren't looking good for a certain bat-haired Yami. The current state of affairs was bad for Bakura it looked like Marik would win according to his LP´s, but as everyone knows the tide can turn very quickly in star équipe games. On the table there was currently only one monster and one magic card per field of the duelist. Marik's monter was open and contained a slime-like monster that protects his monster buddy with every attack and swallows the damage itself, but this does not have the effect of being defeated because the attack points increase from 0 to the number of attackers indicates. His magic card field, on the other hand, was a hidden card in which the content is unknown. Bakura's Monster card is his all-time favorite Deathbringer Diabound, and as for his Magic/Trap card compartment, there's the Light Swords card, which allows you to immobilize your opponent for three turns, preventing them from attacking. The final round of this card effect is just emitting when Bakura has another card on the Magic and Trapp card space as well as a face-down monster on the space. In his current turn, Marik also plays a magic and a monster card Ra and was therefore able to attack again. However, he didn't want it to end so quickly and activated a magic card as a torture for bakura, which says that by sacrificing a monster from his hand, he can transfer these points to one of his on the field, but only the cards that aren't have attack and defense values. By sacrificing his monster, Marik allowed 2400 points to be transferred to his slime monster, which is basically counted as a magic card but thanks to its effect, treated as normal his current ones are added so this fieh always has more points than what it is attacking. He attacked this card so that Bakura's LP's were 750. And with Bakura's current move, he still had to bridge a few rounds before he triumphed, so he played the change of hard card he had just drawn straight out. The course continued for a few laps. So the duel continued with their best strategies and monsters. Bakura was also able to parry or dodge this with effects for a while, but this also wore off after a while. His score was still at 150 LP...which was very far from Marik's score.

At the end of Marik's last move that would lead him to victory, Bakura started to growl and only to reflexively toss his and Marik's cards across the room, which he angrily stomped on to vent his aggression. Bakura raged, letting out whatever he could feel through aggression. Before he calmed down he started to dig into something new to get his game revenge on anything other than yu-gi-oh/duel monsters it just had to be competitive. Down below, the ready-cooked food was arranged on a few plates, which they strutted around on their hands so that they could walk down the hallway without spilling anything. At the door to the inevitable door they had to rearrange everything again to get a free hand to knock on. Her knock on the door was not answered and, despite the human knowledge of them, they pushed the door open so that Mokuba and Yugi could enter together with the provisions. They joined them on one of the chairs next to them and also brought the provisions with them and only watched one of their matches while they ate their prepared meal. There was also a maintenance break of the game not too long during the match. What this created was a delicious smell that Marik sniffed. It was the food standing next to him that craved his nose and made his eyes look at it with lust. Bakura follows the matter seconds later and couldn't resist it either. Then he forgets his game revange for a while, which is usually not a simple game but about your life.

With another bite from his Moo Shu, Yugi and Mokuba both gave them a smile, knowing that they kind of expected that reaction. After chewing again, they asked if the two wanted something, to which they nodded slightly as in trace. The two larger versions of Malik and Ryou had no real idea what it was and what it consisted of, which is why they asked for an explanation, which they got afterwards. In the enlightenment they told them what they had cooked and what it consisted of. In the end it turned out to be a fairly simple dish as it consisted mostly of soy sauce, garlic, chicken breast, ginger, Chinese cabbage, carrots and hoisin sauce. The drool ran free fall from the corners of their mouths out of Bakura and Marik. They didn't hesitate and hurriedly reached for the large Moo Shu pot to sample the confirmed deliciousness that the smell had reflected, only the smell if it were on the outside they wouldn't even have lifted a finger. They took more and more away with pleasure and not only from the Moo-Shu but also from the other prepared delicacies that were there. They smack of unexpected deliciousness and asked with their mouths full how they had learned to cook so well and what the names of the individual dishes were and whether they could prepare it more often. Masn can truly say that they enjoyed eating together while exercising their bodies at the same time. The game that was left out and ahead they continued undeterred as they actually managed to completely devour the entire menu in 20 minutes meaning they would complete their previous task no matter how humdrum that might sound, or even childish .

The end of the card game was near and as soon as it was done Yugi went down to the kitchen to put the empty plates down. Which left Mokuba alone with Yami B. and Yami M., of course only for a short time. Lately it's not like they need a babysitter to keep an eye on their psychotic side, no, you can actually use them a lot when it comes to 'Hikari' and 'keeping an eye' on them. And besides, it didn't mean that you didn't have to like them just because of their special past, it just needed the right tact to get through to them to be accepted. Only one hand, many people managed to create this and whoever created it then had certain privileges. Something like they reach out to you or they value you and your opinion... and stuff like that. What they also noticed was that Marik recently likes to ask for information about how others are doing, like he is doing now "Little hedgehog, what kind of business stuff does the big Quikel/Swinub do that he wanted to talk to us about?" Mokuba put his index finger on his chin in a thoughtful pose before replying "Well I don't know exactly Seto-nii wasn't really talking to me about anything like that just now so I'm just as stumped as you are. But I assume it is." It has something to do with the fact that you are classified as a troublemaker for him. It is therefore possible that he wanted to bribe you not to do something about your being there for one of his business relationships! That's how I think about it." Marik then "If that's all, why are you taking so long?" Bakura on his comment "Well, I didn't feel like attending the stupid hearing for whatever, but since we're tied to it here in the present, we have no choice for anything else anyway... I mean that we can be happy that he keeps the three idiots away from us" Marik so "Oh yes and what about hedgehog and starfish here, you idiot thief?" Bakura snorts "Apart from The two dwarves. Apart from that, they're not as bad as the old pharaoh and the damned priest!" Marik agreeing "True"

*grumbling* Bakura's stomach jumped in between to indicate that he was hungry and the funny thing is that they hadn't even eaten anything 3/4 of an hour ago. Mokuba cleaned up the field properly and then walked down the hallway together to the kitchen to see what else they had in the house to eat. And of course also to look up pb Yugi in need of some help.

Some time had passed again when Mokuba, Bakura and Marik came towards the kitchen to see for the white-haired Yami if they still have some tasty edible stuff. However, by the time they entered the threshold of the kitchen, Yugi had just started serving a cake that he still had in his existing hidden reportoie that he wanted to share with them since he had to leave - he had been standing there far too long. They chuckled again at the sight and couldn't help but grab it, again. Sharing was an unfamiliar word for both of them at the moment. It was a so-called coffee cake, as they called it, and they were simply delighted with it, they couldn't contain themselves, but luckily Yugi quickly intervened to take a few pieces away and save them for later so that the others could have some too get it like they do. After that, when everything had calmed down, the rest went reasonably okay.

And to keep that up, they made a few promises, not many, but it helped. Especially for what they did. Since everyone had a lot of ideas, they created a wheel of fortune and each person was only allowed to write down three things that they would like to do but in the things they wrote down they also pay attention to the fairness of the smaller ones, which in that sense only applies to the two Yamis . There were many things on it at the end, but only those were picked out, with everyone appearing more or less to agree, and they did so by a vote. It turned out that for the rest of the day and for the evening that is now aspiring, they will first play a little cards and then watch a film. More precise details about the film or the game were not decided, but that it should be spontaneously determined by the writer and since it was tolerated by both sides according to the frequency number, there was nothing against it.

However, there has been some debate as to which one is taken to cover everyone's interests as everyone has such different views. It got very heated and didn't last long because they went through all the games one by one and something like this was noticed: No, there was one thing that remained unknown to everyone. Yugi turned to Mokuba to convey his idea inm. It turns out that Mokuba's proposal of Yugi's was accepted brilliantly. He went up to his room to get the packaging to represent this content and thus unpacked the game. It was, as far as he briefly explained to the other two, a game created by Mokuba and Maliks themselves, which they initially called ´´Duel Force VE´´. In the beginning this project was meant to be sidelined like a fun little side thing that you would work on if you had the time and inclination between your other activities but in the end it turned out to be more real than you thought it would be in your favour. And now you would have the privilege of trying it out first as it only exists once and is only a prototype which can be used in this game to reform at some point later. Also, they figured they might like it since it contains the components of many things they care about or do something like Duel Monsters.

The playing field was unpacked and ready to play. The field consisted of a board the size of a Monopoly board. Then there were the main game pieces, each representing a character, there were 12 in all. And what's funny is that they represented themselves. Not exactly, well, but there were noticeable references to it. Also, there were 7 amulets that could be obtained throughout the game and these represented the Mileniums artifacts in their eyes...again, apart from existing differences, the allusion was not inconspicuous. Then there were special cards that were colectelbal if you win at choice events, but these can always be used to gain an advantage in battles or you can lose them in duels and the other would then win them. Who knows what will happen. Everything on the field seemed easy at first glance, but when you saw everything it was probably very difficult and strategically ordered. And if you look at it all carefully, it reminded you of their 'adventure' together before, things would speak before that. The rules also seemed quite compact, some normal ones were mentioned, which they compared to DM, which are also connected to newer game mechanisms, which still seemed strange to them. So basically they could say that they would give it a chance. After your thorough examination of the design of Prenzieps, it was explained how the game is played in the suburbs. The rules were kept simple; everyone got a character and an artefact selected by them that had special abilities in the game and thus made progress easier, they played alternately, the progression was determined with cards that represented certain train events and, depending on the completion, a certain number could advance that various fields themselves also have events, since they also trigger other events depending on the requirement, and to regulate this there is a pre-existing event plan on which all intersections are noted, which represents the vast number of possibilities available. And of course there was much more to describe about it, but that was enough for now, in Mokuba's eyes. He said that not everything has to be clarified, but only what seems important and since this is only a test, they don't quite make it anyway, so it's practical that there was also a shortened version of this game that, according to their assumption, only lasted 1 to 2 hours from 8 hours could. As I said, they left it at that and gave in to trying a limited mindset of all the strategies this game would leave behind. They really hoped that it wouldn't end so disappointingly, so we had to wait and see.

And so the game began.

They played the board game for a long time maybe it was 2 hours maybe 3 hours when they were already working on it and still didn't reach the end but everyone seemed to like it so far there was hardly any criticism but as usual there were quarrels which actually meant something good for them who you want to see it like that. In the course it was slowly getting darker outside, which is why they decided to stop watching a film and they discovered some flaws in the whole thing, which still needed some revisions, so you could say that the test was going well went well. After about another half hour they arrived in the living room to watch a film and to make it fair the two Yami's were allowed to choose this time because the game came from the two smaller ones it would only be fair. In the meantime, Mokuba and Yugi went into the kitchen to have the typical cinema flair by making popcorn. They promised themselves one thing and that they wouldn't be scared by a film no matter how brutal it gets. That was one of the reasons I felt like the only one why they went here they didn't want to wet their pants from the start and that just from a mere title. It would be easier to let yourself be surprised by the content and in the end who knows if it might not surprise you in a positive way, thanks to that, the emotional level can drastically change your point of view. The popcorn was now perfect and ready in time for the film. With one hand they took out a blanket that seemed quite large so that the two smaller teens would fit in if they were afraid, which they still hoped wouldn't happen, they were a bit optimistic. They went into the living room with the two articles and sat down ready on the sofa. They sat ready. Bakura was sitting on the far left and Marik was sitting on the far right so that they circled the smaller ones. In the center right was Yugi, who was right next to Bakura, and in the center left was Mokuba, who was next to both Yugi and Marik. When everything was arranged, they began to start the film, which was unknown to the two of them.

The film has been running for a while and so far has not aroused any negative feelings but only positive ones that were decorated and filled with curiosity. You could tell they were enjoying it so far as the film at the moment only succumbed to the mystic and drama genres, a combo they liked though. Anything could happen in this film Ganres like heartbreak, romantic fluff, murders, murders that are solved, detective work, curses, myths and much more. You never know what to expect, so the topic of mysticism and horror is widely distributed, which means that the chance of greeting each other was 25%. So you could believe that nothing terrible could happen, right? Hmmm how wrong they were!

At some point towards the end of the film came the creepy part of the show where you saw how the case of the curse was resolved and had to compete against the monster to break the recurring curse, which caused a lot of bloodshed and left scary scenes, as always The perfect scary sounds are adorned to make it even scarier when a corpse or the ambushed creature appears. The two taller ones seemed to be enjoying the film and yet managed to keep their neutral gaze. A hand reached over to the popcorn nestled with the smaller ones and he only noticed that he encountered something wobbly and fluffy rather than something pop. Marik looked next to him at the couch and down at his hand where all he could see was a lump of tangled blanket with the two smaller creatures in place. But since the blanket shook back and forth from time to time as if she was... scared. Or what was hiding underneath. Bakura also looked next to him and also saw the covered human lump at the same time as Marik reached for the remote control and clicked on pause. He had to interrupt the film for them and do his best to calm the smaller ones huddled under a blanket in fear. But hey, he has to give you one thing, after all you'd stuck it out in ignorance longer than you thought, it borders on a hikari record on the subject of scaring and their sensitivity to lights. The film was now stopped and the two were brought up to one of the dormitories and owned by Yugi himself.

Bakura took in the look around him..."Gag!" just came to his mind. He got up from his arch and took the now empty bowl from the floor and placed it on the table while Marik lifted the two smaller ones in his arms and carried them up in the blanket. At the top he laid them both properly under the covers and tucked them up. There could have been no protests from them, as their innocent faces were tightly shut and sleeping soundly, at least that's what it looked like. Bakura then immediately walked in the door whereupon Marik looked up at him and nodded at him as code for understanding something that only they know what it means. So he got up from the edge of the bed to walk towards the door and Bakura so they could finish watching the movie. But that was prevented when Marik got up and tried to trot over, but at the same time an outstretched chibi hand stopped him from pulling further, whereupon he and his fellow Yami turned around to wake up to two grinning figures, the hedgehog and the star head Find. Was it them all along? How clever!

They didn't know how but they had unexpectedly spent the rest of the day together in the small bedroom. It was imprecise to say how it came about, especially one could ask how the position everyone was in was comfortable enough to kip like that?! It started with them discussing the film a bit at Mokuba's request. He didn't really want it, but he couldn't get anything from them with 'ask', he had his own experiences with that. All you had to do was wait for the right moment. For this he only had to raise their tempers. He did this by interpreting these conversations in a way that suits their taste. And for that this was the perfect beginning, in a way that 'spooked' counted into that especially considering it was in a mystery crime drama genre and the ending was just a bit frightening as the sound effects played their part so you could bear it. The two Yami's tried to use contracted words to get the two to leave them alone so they could retreat but that didn't materialize as the theme of 'please' and 'please' started bouncing around for the rest of the evening. The two of them really couldn't stand something like that because the counter-demands were the same and let's face it, it doesn't matter what kind of 'ask' it is, it's never what appeals to the other. And since the two are more psychotic and have recently been trying to get started in the direction of being nice. They might regret it since the courtesy thing would include being nice, which doesn't exactly appeal to them. Well at least they could request that without first giving their consent. What came out confused her a little. It was all about making a plan for Yami and the newcomer to understand each other. So that their arguments don't fall on deaf ears who deny everything, they also resorted to Seto and how he had changed his action to Yami in a very short time, even if he doesn't admit it and doesn't show it by action, but it is still very obviously readable. And objected that if possible they should try the same way, no matter if it is related to marik and bakura or to the new one. They were also just confused to understand because they didn't get it. Was that the only reason you asked the two, Marik and Bakura, for help and nothing else? For something so stupid? And that's why they both asked marik and bakura for help? How stupid of you only because you liked the bigot on his actions and way of thinking in the direction of rejection of the pharaoh and yet since it has turned on both sides just for different reasons, the two believe that they will help the newcomer to follow that too, although they the pleasure has nothing to do with how lucky she is. But even if the two reject it, they have no chance against the weapon of innocence, the big dog eyes in combination with the narrow mouth that makes every Yami ponder to agree to it, it just makes everyone soft! What could they possibly do? *sigh* Both unwillingly agreed. And with him there was a long conversation that went on into the night, the rest was forgotten with all the possible suggestions and approaches that were feasible. No wonder they lost track of time at some point. In the morning your whole head and back would probably hurt.

It was late at night when Seto arrived at the apartment building with the rest of them to drop these three off and to pick up his younger brother at the same time, who was in safe hands the whole time so that he was safe and Seto himself felt at least a little safer. Ryou got out of the limo after Kaiba followed by Malik and Yami so he unlocked the door. They stepped in at the *click* sound, one at a time, and as appropriately gently, and looked inside the apartment like every other room. There was nothing to be heard, no sound of footsteps, no yelling and or similar sounds to prove that someone was there. With a look at the clock on the wall it was clear that it was so late that they would sleep, well at least two of them the other two could do anything as long as it wasn't harmful. But as I said, there was no trace even of the two chaotic people. When they now completely entered the house, they stood in the hallway, the adjoining anteroom, the living room, which is only separated by a glass door as a connection. As they also walked through the glass door and stood in the living area, they stared at it for a while. The room was deserted, but there were traces of chaos in the air, which indicated that someone was using it and whatever interrupted their activity in this room to move on. You could see that from the television that was still switched on, which apparently showed a stopped film that didn't even have twenty minutes left and with a small look at the cassette shell lying on the floor, it didn't even seem too bad. Then there were traces of thrown around pillows, scruffy sofas and finally a trace of popcorn that lay scattered on the floor, which looked like a scattered air bomb, the shreds of which are scattered everywhere. So they peeked through the rest of the house too, but only to make sure nothing was broken. In all the rooms they first examined, there was no trace to be seen. Then they also checked the remaining lower areas in which they had previously stood in the living room. The reason why they first went after the middle, he said, was only because they went to the living room to clean up there while two of them looked around the middle so that when both groups were ready they could go ahead.

The rooms to be checked on the first floor hadn't indicated any devastation or anything like that. Except maybe one room: the playroom on the floor. Well actually it wasn't devastation but more little things that didn't stand in their place so still far from the word but that was all. So they quickly came down to check out the rest and the only ones that stood out were the dining room, the kitchen and the downstairs bathroom. Finally, to be on the safe side, they also went to peek into the dormitories. Actually, it could not matter where the four of them were on the upper floor, but as long as they just couldn't get rid of Kaiba, what was left for them then? They wanted to get rid of him, no offense meant, so they needed mokuba and since nobody was there before...
