Ladies and Gentlemen, We've Hit the Plot

Ryou sat in the interview room listening to Luna throw a fit of yelling at herself (she claimed she was yelling at Crystal but Ryou wasn't so sure) as she paced around the room.

"- And Crystal decided it A-Ok to steal the remote and-" Luna ranted while Ryou lost interest.

"Ummmm, Luna could you please-" Ryou started but never finished because his yami walked straight into the room, with anger and embarrassment plastered all over his pale face.

"Shut up!" Bakura screamed. "It's not like Crystal is dead! She only retreated to the corner of your mind to heal! And you should be rather proud that she accomplished stealing something from you without anyone noticing!"

Silence.

Luna's right eye started to twitch, the way it did when she was nervous, excited, or angry. (Ryou bet his money on angry, as everyone else would have) "Fluffy," She started, evil death glare already in place. "I'm giving you 5 seconds to make yourself scarce, just to be nice, before I beat the hell outta your sorry butt. You can come back when my interview show starts." Ryou had never heard Luna get so angry with Bakura.

Bakura gulped, ruffled his shiny white hair, and disappeared into the Millennium Ring. Luna focused on Ryou. "As you were saying?" Her kind tone and bright smile returned.

"Ummm, I was going to tell you to calm down because our special guest is coming today and you should be in a happy mood." Ryou said.

"Good point!" Luna said cheerfully.

Bing Bong! The door rang once more.

"Luna, do y-you want me to come with you?" Ryou started with a light pink glow starting to form across his cheeks. That grabbed Luna's attention. "I-I mean just in case it's that Ninja Pizza Man again, because anyone who can cause Crystal that much damage is a force to be reckoned with."

Luna nodded. (Though, Ryou didn't excel in defending himself or using Shadow Magic) And so they went to the door. But thankfully, it was only Kanae, the special guest for the day.

Kanae was extremely tall compared to Luna, but very pale. Her was long and chocolate colored hair was much like Luna's, except it was pulled back in a braid. Her eye color was a steely blue. She was wearing jeans and a light blue t-shirt that said 'I used to have superpowers but my therapist took them away.'

"Hi Kanae!" Luna said happily. "I'm so glad you could come today!"

"My pleasure! I'm so happy I was invited, so where's the interview room? Oh, and I'm sorry about Crystal." Kanae responded.

"It wasn't your fault, so no worries." Luna chided. "In fact-"

Suddenly, Luna's Millennium started to glow and Crystal appeared beside Luna looking quite pale and…

"You're see-through." Ryou stated quite dryly.

"How kind of you to notice." Crystal replied. She doubled over to cough and stood straight once more, drowsiness playing in her eyes. Luna tried to poke her yami but her hand went through Crystal's arm.

"Lovely. Any reason why you don't feel like going into physical form?" Luna questioned, raising an eyebrow.

"Because after yesterday," Her midnight blue irises drifted off to the ceiling as though remembering the Ninja Pizza Man. She started blushing while doing this so they assumed she was remembering how Bakura had picked her up princess-style. "-I had little to no energy left, that Ninja Pizza Man drained it all away from me somehow and prevented me from using any back-up energy from the Millennium Bracelet or from Luna's own Shadow Magic reserves. He left me completely devoid of magic. I'm lucky I can even appear at this point…"

"Great. You're still alive." An irritated voice from the interview room mused. Everyone turned to glare at the white-haired owner of the voice, except Crystal who kept blushing.

"Thank you, Bakura." Crystal said with actual sincerity in her voice.

"Yeah, whatever." Bakura responded. He turned to look at the wall, causing his black coat to move along with him. Bakura clearly did this to avoid looking at Crystal and so that the rest of the group couldn't see his face. But they could still see his face turn bright red in embarrassment.

Everyone was once more in the interviewing room, awaiting the fan mail delivery of the day.

"I'm so glad to see that our friendship pulled through and that we are still friends! Lovely, lovely friendship." Tea giggled like an idiot.

Luna glared at her. "You mention one more thing about friendship and you're going to get pummeled by all the Yu-Gi-Oh fans that hate you, bitten by my Silver Fangs, blasted by Rainbow Dragon, and then get an all-expense paid trip to the Shadow Realm courtesy of me." She snarled.

"How could anyone hate me? I only try to keep my friends together and-" Tea was quickly silenced by Luna's ear-splitting, mind-piercing, sound of a whistle. Then, a bunch of people with pitchforks and torches broke through the door. (1)

"Where's the girl who loves friendship to the point where it's unhealthy?" The leader of the mob yelled. Luna pointed at Tea.

"Get her!" One of the mobsters yelled. Soon enough, over 10,000 people were chasing Tea. Luna whistled again, and then two oddly familiar looking huskies jumped though the window. The two of them barked and then 40 more jumped through the window, with one little pup jumping in last.

"Attack, Maya and Phoebe! Attack with your pack of Silver Fang minions!" Luna screeched above all the chaos. Both dogs snarled, the entire pack soon following their example, and began to chase after Tea as well.

"Rainbow Dragon, I call you forth as your master!" Luna yelled. Then Rainbow Dragon appeared outside and used Rainbow Explosion on Tea, and laughed in a draconic way as she watched Tea's hair become a hideous mix of colors.

Then, Luna lifted her hand, with palm spread out wide, and dark energy began to be emanated from the Millennium Bracelet. It flowed into Luna's hand and she then threw it on the ground where it widened into a rift panel to the Shadow Realm. When Tea came running from the mob of people and Silver Fangs again, Luna pushed her into the rift. Almost instantly, it sealed up with nothing left to mark the specific spot.

Everyone cheered without fear of Luna giving them concussions.

"All right, let's begin." Luna said very professionally. "Kanae, feel free to have your first guest gift." Kanae's eyes lit up and she then tackle hugged Seto.

"Yay!" She cheered afterwards.

"And as for your second gift…" Luna whistled and the small pup from earlier came in and Luna picked him up. "Enjoy one of the puppies you brought back to life!"

"Double yay!" Kanae said as she gingerly lifted the small puppy from Luna's hands.

"Alright," Ryou said after he returned with a paper bag full of letters. "Mail's here!"

"First question is to… Bakura!" Luna announced cheerfully. "It's from Hotaru Layla." Everyone saw Crystal smile as she read the letter before her hikari passed it to Bakura. (Mind you, she's still see-through and not solid so she couldn't hold that specific letter)

"Oh goodie… It reads 'What would your reaction be, Bakura, if word got out that you have a major crush on Crystal?' I clearly-"

"You missed something." Luna pointed out.

"Hmm? Oh yes, the small print. 'Don't lie and say you don't, the end of last chapter is proof enough!' I only did that because she was injured! Ra, you modern fools are so thick. I mean, me with her? You must be joking. Seriously-"

"Denial!" Both Luna and Marik squealed (which scared everyone because of two completely different reasons).

"Oh, shut up." Bakura said, conceding his defeat.

"Hooray, I have it recorded for blackmail!" Kanae and Luna both said while holding their IPhones. Later, they both high-fived each other.

"Next question is from… Kanae herself! To Bakura again."

"Whoop, more mail for me…" Bakura cheered sarcastically. "It says 'Are you related to Xemnas from Kindom Hearts II? You look eerily similar.' Joy, I'm being compared to a person I don't know (this statement received glares from Luna and Kanae, both looking quite deadly). Is he Egyptian? Didn't think so. He's probably some poser of me." Bakura answered.

"Wait! Before we continue, may I say something to Yugi and Yami?" Kanae asked.

"Of course! You are our honored guest after all."

Kanae pointed and glared at both of the spiky-haired people sitting on the couch in front of her. "You are lying. Between both of you and the Organization XIII, our ozone layer is depleting."

"Uhhhhhh…?" Both of them droned.

"Ok, next letter!" Ryou said happily, that is, until he actually read the next letter. "Luna, you had better take a look at this." Ryou said as he handed the paper to the eager girl next to him.

"Oh, no." Was all she could manage to speak. This is what the letter was:

Dear, Yu-Gi-Oh losers,

Fear me, for I have taken away the use of Shadow Magic from the yami you know as Crystal! Mua-ha-ha-ha! I am also the one who took the Magical Character remote from the weak yami! So beware of my Ninja Pizza Man brethren and me, for we are out to capture you! Mua-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Signed,

Ninja Pizza Man #753

"Quite modest, isn't he?" Ryou sarcastically asked.

"Great, there's 753 that we actually know about." Kanae sighed.

"Yup, and I'm kicking each and every single one's sorry butts!" Luna said as she cracked her knuckles.

"Yeah, and to get my magic back I'll help as best I can!" Crystal said.

"Eh, we've got nothing to do this weekend anyways…" The rest of the cast said.

Now only Bakura was left to say something. "What? You expect me to actually care about her?"

And everyone noticed how a see-through tear traced it's way down the side of Crystal's non-solid face before she disappeared either from exhaustion, or from the sadness she had because her crush was tossing her aside.

As Bakura settled into the second spare bedroom in Luna's house, he whispered to himself. "I apologize for my lying, I do rather like you Crystal. Thank Ra, you can't hear me now."

Too bad he was wrong, since Crystal's soul had been wandering in the hallways overhearing every word Bakura had said. And how happy she was when she finally returned to the Millennium Bracelet to rest and heal herself.

Meanwhile…

Luna clicked off the light for the interview room.

"You do realize you've left me here for five days right?" Melvin asked her. "I'm really hungry, and thirsty, and really need to use the restroom!"

"Oh well. You're all ready dead, so you can't starve of die of starvation or dehydration. And as for your urge to use the restroom-"

"Never mind, I don't need to go anymore." Melvin smirked.

"You peed on my carpet?" Luna screamed.

"Seems like it. So now I got payback."

"Not really, tomorrow people are coming to clean this carpet." She stated as-a-matter-of-factly.

"Darn!"

AN: So, did ya like it? I hope you enjoyed the ending of the poor carpet. I also hope you enjoyed the copious amounts of Bakal (Bakura X Crystal)! Especially in the almost ending! X3 R&R!

(1) I thank Silent Goth Girl for this suggestion, though the Silver Fangs, Rainbow Dragon, and Shadow Realm were my idea.

Special thanks to Kanae, for coming onto my fanfic! You are AWESOME!

Special thanks also goes to Hotaru Layla and Kanae Valentine for coming up with the questions in this chapter, most of which embarrassed Bakura! You guys rock!
