A.N.- So sorry for the lateness! I've been far busier than I expected to be this time of year! I'll try, with all my might, to be on time next time. Forgive me? Anyhow, onto the 9th chapter: Headlines!
Chapter 9: Headlines, Part 1
It wasn't until they had paid for everything, and had all the groceries loaded into the limo, did Anzu squeal joyfully, latching onto Yami's arm again.
"I can't believe a news' reporter interviewed me! And I have several others who'll pay me for an interview . . . ON NATIONAL T.V.! Can you believe it, Yami?" The brunette teen shrieked, tugging Yami's arm.
Feeling as though his arm would either be torn off, or pulled out of its socket, Yami snatched his arm from the girl. "First of all, Anzu, " He said, "You just lied to nearly ten reporters. AND agreed to go with at least another 10 reporters, to lie on national t.v. You do realize that Kaiba's going to kill you, right?"
Anzu barely heard a word Yami spoke, but Yuugi was listening intently, "Well, at least, now he has a reason to kill her, other than just hating her." The teen mumbled.
Ryou giggled silently, "True."
Bakura sat beside Seto, gleefully rubbing up and down the brunette's arm. While Seto made no move to push him off, Yami did everything in his power not to leap across the limo and toss the Tomb Robber out the window.
The pharaoh ended up on the bad side of the deal, when getting in the limo. Although he was first in(since Ryou made Bakura help put the groceries in the trunk), Anzu pulled him away from his beloved Kaiba.
Seto sat leaning against one end of the limo, so when Bakura came in, he moved Mokuba-who tried to sit beside his brother, just so Bakura couldn't- and sat beside the brunette.
Now, in order, from the passenger back door, near the trunk, they sat, Kiroko, Ryou, Yuugi, Yami, and Anzu. Then across from them sat, Mokuba, Bakura, then Seto.
The limo was silent, except for the growls emanating from Yami from time to time.
Sensing the tension, Ryou decided that some television would lighten the mood. Even slightly.
"How about a little sound? Perhaps the Tele?" Ryou asked.
Mokuba nodded, far too quickly for normal, and pulled the remote out of the side pocket. He pressed a button. A screen slid down from the roof of the limo, blocking one of the driver-side, back windows. It was placed there so everyone could see, but Seto and Anzu would have to move slightly over to see clearly.
Flipping through the channels, Mokuba stopped on a short documentary. He scanned the summary of it, finding out it was about the origin of Duel Monsters.
But as usual, some lame reporter or whatever hadn't done their research properly, and Yami noted, there was a lot of information completely wrong. It was almost laughable how wrong it was.
Snorting, at about the same time, Yami and Bakura turned their heads away from the screen. "That's so wrong, " Yami mumbled, pulling his arm from Anzu again.
"You can say that again." Bakura agreed, "How the hell did they come up with the Chinese creating Duel Monsters! Idiot Americans!" The meaner of the Albinos growled.
Yami rolled his eyes, " Shut up, Tomb Robber, You probably don't even know where Duel Monsters come from!" Yami accused.
Shocked, though not really, Bakura snorted, "You wish I was that dumb, Asshole!" He tightened his hold on Seto, "Dumb people don't get ass like Kaiba's!" He bragged.
Grimacing, Yami looked beside him at Anzu. Well, Bakura had a point. There wasn't much he could say in return . . .
Suddenly the documentary, as laughable as it was, was interrupted by " Breaking News."
On the screen, at the bottom, flashed the red letters of " Breaking News: Live on Kaiba Estate"
In the background, on the screen, Kaiba Mansion could be seen through the Security Gates. Several hundred, maybe more, reporters stood outside the gates, with their camera and sound crews. Many vans were parked around the gates, surrounding the Kaiba mansion, marring the once beautiful grass, and plants.
The brunette gasped, pushing Bakura off him, and accidently onto Mokuba. "What the hell!" Seto yelled, turning the screen toward him.
No one else, except Mokuba and Bakura could see the screen now, but the sound reverberated throughout the limo. The female reporter's voice slighting annoying but very helping in giving out information. Holding important information back.
"As you can see, there's some three hundred news crews out here, today. All awaiting Mr. Seto Kaiba, himself. After a brief spotting and interview today at a local supermarket, Seto Kaiba hasn't been seen yet. Although that was about 30 minutes ago, We are all awaiting the arrival of the Kaiba family. Including, what we've been told is his new fiancee."
The reporter's voice trailed off, as the camera scoured the Kaiba Estate, showing all the news' crews and the Kaiba Mansion.
Seto coughed, patting his chest as he glared at the group in the limo. "My fiancee! Where the hell did they get that idea!"
No one answered, though several people stared at Anzu out of the corner of their eyes.
"Niisama," Mokuba spoke up, "If they're all waiting at the gates for us, how'll we get in? It'll take forever!"
Kaiba glared at no one in particular as he pulled out his phone, "Later Mokuba." He pressed the speed-dial button for his publicist's number, and waiting for the ring.
Yami watched Kaiba, pulling his arm from Anzu again. He whispered, "You do realize this is your fault, right?"
Anzu ignored him, 'I wonder who's the poor sap to be engaged to Kaiba? ...'

Yuugi waited nervously for someone to say something. He didn't feel it was safe for himself, or anyone else, and Especially Anzu, if they had ratted her out to Kaiba. Eventually he'll find out it was her who spread such horrible lies . . . but until then, with them trapped in this limo(which seemed smaller with a pissed-off CEO in it, also), they'd keep quiet.
Ryou didn't have time to blush, as he grabbed Yuugi's hand. He and Yuugi watched as Mokuba pressed the button, which wind down the window, no longer blocking the Driver from the occupants.
When Mokuba addressed the driver, Ryou brightened. He could see the crowd surrounding the Kaiba Mansion, and they weren't even near the place yet!
"Where are we gonna go?" Yuugi wondered, then said, "We could go to the game shop?"
Mokuba shook his head, "Nah., we couldn't burden your grandfather like that, Yuugi."
Shaking his head, the teen said, "It wouldn't be a burden at all. I'm sure Gramps won't mind."
Kaiba, who was still awaiting for his Publicist to pick up, shook his head 'no' to the suggestion, and pointed to Ryou.
Mokuba nodded, "Yea! Would it be all right if we went to your house for a while, Ryou? You do have to put your grocery up and everything . . . "
Before Ryou could answer, Bakura, who was suspiciously quiet for a long while, spoke up. "Hell Yea!" He yelled.
Oddly enough, he was sitting between Seto's legs, on the floor. The brunette hadn't said anything, since Bakura hadn't actually been touching him, but now that everyone was looking, it makes him a bit more uncomfortable.
"What the hell are you doing? Get up!" Seto growled.
Spotting the Tomb Robber on the floor, Yami smirked evilly. Yuugi tried to warn Bakura but the words got stuck in his throat. Just as the Tomb Robber leaned up, and bent over to sit, Yami's foot flew out, kicking Bakura right in the ass.
Almost everyone laughed as the Albino toppled over. Right. Onto. Kaiba.
Bakura, being the athletic and fit robber he was(and had been), managed to maneuver himself to land comfortably into the Brunette's lap. His lips smack-dab onto Kaiba's.
The laughing in the limo abruptly stopped. And the only sound heard was Yami's growls.
Having had enough, Yami leaped onto the brunette's lap, also, pulling Bakura off, and onto the limo floor. The two wrestled all over the small floor, kicking and growling at one another.
Seto hung up his phone, pissed off even more, now that his publicist hadn't picked up. He kicked, though not too hard, at the two assholes wrestling on his limo floor.
"Enough of this bullshit. Stop it, both of you. You're acting like children who have eaten one another's candies!" The brunette growled, "Stop or I'll toss you both out on that hard cement!"
Yami pouted, still holding Bakura's head on the floor, "But . . . you let him kiss you . . . "
Kaiba snorted, "I did no such thing. You pushed him into me."
Bakura grunted, trying to get from under the Pharaoh, "Don't make it sound so bad, " He mocked, "You kissed me back!"
Seto's blush was barely shown as he kicked Bakura again, "That's a lie!"
Yami chuckled, "It's okay if you did . . . " he lied, "But now, I think I deserve one, don't you agree?"
Blushing again, Seto tried to sound firm, "I don't have time for this." He opened his phone again, re-dialing his publicist.
Mokuba, Ryou, Yuugi, and Anzu, and Ki-chan were quiet throughout the whole incident. Now, Mokuba spoke up, "So . . . We're still going to Ryou's house?"
The kind Albino, nodded. "Okay." He smiled, "This ought to be entertaining."
---TBC---
A.N.- I know. It could have been longer. Could have had more Lime in it. Could have been funnier. But alas, it wasn't. I had to quickly write this, 'cause I still have to type three other chapters. Forgive me for the lateness! This isn't a promise, but just an approximation, but the next update should be on October 18.
It may not be, but just check, please. So sorry for the lateness! I loved the reviews, and would love more! Thanks for reading, more to come soon!
