OK PPL. I used britney spears...cuz that song happened to fit...i kno there r better artists out there, with better lyrics, but then it usually depresses me, and the song ends up not fitting the story or I'd have to change the story cuz of the song...so just realize that...and dont make any big deal...its just a story...hopefully...
Disclaimer I DO NOT own Yu-Gi-Oh. Kazuki Takahashi does. This is pointless to do. Everyone knows I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh right?righht? ok...you do..
Anyways, enjoy!
Chapter 10
"Where the hell did he go?" Kaiba growled.
"Oh I see him!" Serenity said as she pointed towards a huge crowd located on a nearby hill.
Kaiba didn't care what the crowd was crowding around and ran towards it with Serenity following at his tail. Kaiba squished through the crowd and Serenity grabbed onto his wrist from being afraid of losing him and not being able to get out of this crowd. Kaiba noticed Bakura running up the stage and running to the backstage. No one else noticed him since he was slick and experienced. After all, he WAS a thief, and a good one. Serenity and Kaiba ran up the stage in attempt of following Bakura, but unfortunately, Kaiba wasn't as slick as Bakura and the host of this "show" noticed him and Serenity.
"Ahh.. Mr. Kaiba.. I see that your joining this contest. We will be glad to see you dance." The host said as he pulled Kaiba and Serenity onto the stage.
"WHAT! No way am I going to enter a stupid dance contest!" Kaiba said as he casually started walking towards the stairs which led to the audience. But somehow, he couldn't pass the staircase and his legs just froze. He could take steps back, but not forward. He heard evil snickering behind the curtains and immediately noticed that voice. (A/n: Guess who? If you said Bakura, then yes!) Kaiba felt the grip he had on his arm loosen up. He looked around for Serenity, but found her nowhere. He looked down the stairs and saw Serenity there. He narrowed his eyes and glared at her. She just waved happily and innocently at him.
"Traitor! How could you betray me?" Kaiba shouted.
She tilted her head side ways in confusion. "Betray you? I was never with you! But I will cheer for you! I promise!" She shouted back.
Meanwhile
Bakura had put a spell on Kaiba so that he had to stay on stage until he finishes his dance. He was just about to leave, when he heard an all too familiar voice.
"The idiotic pharaoh's here?" He muttered under his breath. Unfortunately, Atem had noticed him too and had grown furious. Before Bakura could get away, the gang had crowded him and soon, him and Yami went into a heated argument. And before Bakura could realize what was going on, he was dragged onto the stage.
Back to The Stage
Kaiba had been shoved into backstage and was impatiently waiting for the host to stop speaking.
"Today, we are all here to see five people compete in dancing for a hundred dollars!" The host said. "And the five contestants are, Tea Gardener..., Atem Motou,... Joey Wheeler,...um...Bakura...and the all famous Seto Kaiba!" The host said. When the audience heard Kaiba's name, they went wild. Kaiba smirked and the host told the audience that that was the order they were going to go in.
First went Tea and started out with a good start. She had just recovered form her "beating" that Kaiba and Joey had given her. Her friends had warned her not to dance yet, but her passion for dance took over and she had insisted. After about twenty seconds, she started tripping over her feet, and soon, she fainted. Of course, the audience didn't know about the incident and thought she fainted from stage fright.
Next up, was Atem and he wasn't really a good dancer. He had only agreed to this because Tea had forced him. Same reason for Joey. The song started to play, but Atem just stood there. Out of nowhere, a vegetable was thrown at Atem and the person who threw it shouted " Start already! Your boring us by just standing there!"The vegetable hit him square on the head. Within seconds, Atem had gone bright red from embarrassment and anger and had run towards whoever threw that. The host popped out of backstage and announced that Atem was disqualified.
Joey was up next and he started out with some funky moves and was so into the dance after a while that when he did a cartwheel, he fell off of the stage and had fainted. The medics had just come to take Tea, so they took him too. Serenity insisted on going with her brother, but the medics didn't believe that they were related.
Bakura then came up on to the stage and a random disco song started playing. Bakura wasn't about to fail again(he failed at getting away)so he started dancing to the beat. He moved his arms up and down in a diagonal beat with his index finger pointing out and then rolling his fists . When the song finished, everyone cheered since he was the only one to finish his dance even though he sucked.
Last up was Kaiba, and let's just say, he picked up some cool moves from previous classes Mokuba forced him to go to. He couldn't dance with his trench coat, so he took it off and threw it into the audience. Immediately, the fan girls dived for it and tugged at it. After a while of waiting, the fan girls had ripped it apart and each took one piece. There were also a couple of girls unconscious and bleeding on the floor.
Great. Now my favorite trench coat is gone, I have to dance in public AND I have to pay for those stupid girls' insurance! Kaiba thought.
The song started to play and Kaiba started to sway to the rhythm. After all, he had gone to a hip hop class before to watch the girls. I guess his good observing skills payed off after all! All too soon, his song ended and the host appeared out of nowhere beside Kaiba.
"Good job Mr. Kaiba... Now let's see...the winner is...Seto Kaiba!" The host announced. "Here you go. A hundred dollar certificate!" He said as he handed Kaiba an envelope with a hundred dollars in it. Suddenly, Serenity appeared out of nowhere and hugged him. He was so shocked that he just froze. There were camera flashes and it had appeared that the news crew had heard that Kaiba was going to dance and had gotten there just in time to see Serenity hug Kaiba. In a tenth of a second, there were a bunch of microphones shoved at Kaiba's face and dozens of questions from the news crew.
"Mr. Kaiba. Is this your girlfriend? Mr. Kaiba. When did you meet her? Mr. Kaiba. How did the relationship start?" The crew bombarded them with questions.
Kaiba slowly backed away with Serenity behind him.
"Why did you do that?" Kaiba hissed.
"Sorry. Instinct. Whenever my brother wins, I always do that." Serenity said as she blushed from embarrassment.
"Do I LOOK like your brother?" Kaiba asked.
"N...no...Well...kind of.." Serenity said.
"WHAT! You think I look like the mutt?" Kaiba asked.
"N..n..no.. Not at all!" Serenity said.
"Then what does "well..kind of.." Mean, Serenity?" Kaiba spat.
" Sorry. I didn't mean-" Serenity started.
"Of course you didn't mean it. No one EVER means it. First of all, I don't want anyone who touched the mutt, touch me. Second of all, I don't like you and because of your "instinct", people think that you're my girlfriend! And third of all, I am going to kill you for getting me into all of this trouble!" Kaiba shouted.
Serenity started to freak and ran for her life down the stairs and up the hill. Kaiba soon realized what she did and threw his hundred dollar certificate into the audience and ran after her.
Meanwhile
Joey had just woken up from his previous situation and had turned on the T.V. after finding some food. He flipped through the channels and when he got to the news channel, he was about to change it when he heard the news crew say "And Seto Kaiba has found a girlfriend." so he stayed on the channel and watched.
The lady on the screen, holding a microphone was talking about their recent discovery.
"And now here we are with the ultimate news about our young CEO of Kaiba Corporations. It appears that he has found a girlfriend. It appears to be his rival's sister from deep research. Serenity Wheeler has captured the heart of our selfish, arrogant and cold hearted CEO. Let's see what the head of his fan group has to say about this." The lady said as she handed the microphone to a girl who appeared to be snobby, rich and bad dressed.
Joey just froze with his mouth hanging. The girl's annoying bickering and fits drowned out of his ears. The only thing he could hear was, "Serenity is that bastard's girlfriend..." in his ears. He stared blankly at the screen and when he came back to reality, he heard the lady from the T.V. say "Ahhh...A love chase...I see.". When he saw his sister running from Kaiba in what appeared to be in a playful way to him, he blacked out. And just as Mai had come in to the room.
Back to Kaiba and Serenity
Kaiba had almost caught up to her. For her height, she was fast! They were now at the top of the hill and Kaiba was almost within reach so he just jumped and attempted to tackle her. He shifted his weight so that he wouldn't hurt her. After all, he didn't want to be sued. His hands clasped onto her shoulders and she let out a sharp scream. His legs had lost their balance and he tumbled forward, pushing Serenity in the process. They rolled down the hill in a tangled ball. Serenity clutched onto his sleeves like she was going to die and had buried her head in his shirt. Kaiba squeezed Serenity hard against him and both tightly shut their eyes, afraid of getting hurt. When they got to the bottom of the hill, they landed in an awkward situation. Serenity was on top of Kaiba and had her arms on his chest and as well as her head. Kaiba was under her(obviously) and had one arm on her back holding him and one arm down. He was also very dizzy. Both of them attempted to get up at the same time and failed. Serenity pushed against his chest to get up, and he, with his arm still over her back, pushed down at the grass, making her fall on top of him. The second time they did this, Serenity smashed against him and their lips met (again!). They kept trying to push the same way, but failed.
The reporters had caught the whole thing on video tape and they thought that instead of them trying to get out of the position, they were making out. As for the fan girls, as soon as they saw Kaiba and Serenity making out, they started jumping around them like monkeys and made weird noises. They didn't dare touch the "couple" for they were afraid that they would hurt their precious Kaiba.
After a while of repeating the same failing process (Kaiba was dizzy so he couldn't think, and Serenity was just thinking that her brother is going to kill her), Kaiba became nauseous from lack of oxygen and the dizziness from the fall. He felt light headed and let go of the hold on Serenity. Serenity pushed at him just as he let go and stumbled back. After a few moments, Kaiba came back to normal and realized what just happened. He and the mutt's sister had just had an unintentional make out session in front of the whole news crew! Man, this was his biggest mess up in his life. All his pride, his reputation gone, and people are going to start thinking that I'm rejecting her when they see that I don't hang out with her often and their going to stop buying my items! Poor, poor Kaiba. Always exaggerating into the negatives...
As for Serenity, she had similar thoughts as well...Oh no! Joey is going to kill me! That's going to be on the news for at least month! Tristan and Duke are going to be heart broken! They're going to think I'm mean...But still...Joey's going to be sooooo mad! What if he thinks that I betrayed him? He might throw me out or something! Then what would I do? Serenity, Serenity, Serenity. Doesn't she know that Joey loves her? This is called over exaggerating.
