HiHi! Chapter nine of My Little Guardian Angel! And I made a typo last chapter! OhNo! I accidentally put 'He kissed my boyfriends' when I meant to put 'He kissed my boyfriend'.

Luna: Thank you for pointing that out. And, Melvin is Yami Marik, you were right.

It's a week before Halloween and Yugi, Ryou, Bakura, Marik, Melvin and Atem are at the mall in search of Halloween costumes.

"Why don't we try Hot Topic?" Marik asked pointing in the direction of the store.

"That store has mostly costumes for girls. No many for men. Wait, why are we at the mall when there is a Halloween store right across the way?" Bakura pointed out. Everyone stopped in there tracks.

"You have a really good point." Yugi agreed. "Lets go!" And with that, the group left the mall and crossed the street to the Halloween store.

Inside, it was like a haunted house you could pick out of. Around the entrance, there were decorations of all types. Decorations to hang, to lay out on the lawn and to make smoke and strobe lights. Plastic rats, spiders and eye balls. Past that, is where they kept the costumes. Marik went darting around to the costumes for kids his size. Everyone else also did, at a much slower pace though.

Yugi was in the smaller of teen sizes. More like the pre-teen section. Atem was about a few sizes bigger then him. Everyone else is in the mid-teen sizes, like most kids their ages. And, because of Yugi being so much smaller then the others, most of the costumes that would fit him are for littler kids.

They had all talked a little about what they were going trick or treating as. Marik had suggested him and Bakura go as Mario and Luigi, which Bakura turned down that offer. Ryou said he wanted to go as a cat, but its hard finding cat costumes for guys. Bakura wanted to be a vampire, which shouldn't be to hard to find. Yugi suggested Melvin go as and angel, but, Melvin said that was a little girly. No one else really knew what they wanted.

After about an hour of looking, it came to this:

Yugi chose a ghost costume, a white cloak with mesh fabric running up and down all over it. It also had a long white cape that went down to his feet. Marik decided on a devil costume, complete with horns, tail and red skin tight jump suit. He also picked out a pitch fork to go along with his costume. Melvin eventually did find an angels suit for a man and chose that. Ryou and Bakura also found the costumes they were looking for too. Atem found a Pharaoh costume. It was a white cloak stopping just above the knees, with a gold band going around the waist. It came with golden jewelry that go on the wrists, neck, upper arm, thighs, ears and around the from of the forehead. The final piece of golden jewelry that it came with was an upside down pyramid with the eye of Anubis on the front, tied around the neck with a thin, brown rope.

"Check out my totally pimping devil suit!" Marik yelled finding the rest of the group.

"Are you guys ready to go and check out?" Atem asked the group who nodded.

But, there trip was stopped when they saw Seto standing there, with a little boy with long black hair. Everyone assumed it must be Seto's little brother. They were looking through the costumes for kids about six to eight years old.

"S-seto's here?" Atem stuttered. His eyes were wide. 'I really hope he doesn't look this way.' Atem pleaded in his head. But, Seto turned in there direction when the little boy finally found a costume. Seto stopped walking, but the little boy kept running. Until he saw his brother stopped, and he turned to see why.

Seto and Atem were just staring at each other. Seto had a harsh glare on his face, anger clearly visible. Atem had a sorry look, full of sadness, but at the same time fear.

"What are you doing here?" Seto asked in a cold tone. Atem just continued to stare at him, to scared to talk. So Bakura spoke up for him.

"We're looking at costumes. Why else would we be here?" Bakura said, crossing his arms over his chest and glaring back. Atem ran over and glomped Seto.

"Seto, I'm so sorry! Can you please forgive me?" He cried into Seto's chest. Seto just sighed loudly through his nose.

"I don't know Atem. You really hurt me you know?" Seto said, pulling Atem off of him.

"Yes, I know. And I'm so sorry! But, you know you really hurt me to, the way you just walked out and yelled at me." Atem told him. Seto just glared at the floor.

"I-I don't know. Come on Mokuba." He said to the little boy.

"Coming big brother!" He yelled gleefully chasing behind Seto.

Atem sighed sadly, drooping his head. 'Guess I'm not getting Seto back just yet.' He thought to himself. He looked back at the other five with him, trying not to cry. But one tear managed to escape down his cheek, he wiped it away angrily.

"Atem, are you ok?" Yugi asked him when he saw the tear.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Lets go buy these." Atem said, huffing past everyone else to the check out lines.

"Poor Atem." Marik said. Everyone nodded in agreement before following behind him. "Maybe Halloween will distract him from Kaiba."

"Lets hope so." Ryou said as they got in line behind Atem. After everyone was checked out, they all went to their own houses to admire themselves in the mirror.

*Halloween night, 7:00*

"Ok, everyone here?" Yugi asked in his ghost costume. He used body paint to paint himself white.

"Wait, I think we're missing Bakura and Atem." Marik said, dressed in his costume as well.

"No, Bakura's in the bathroom changing into his costume. But, Atem's not here yet, where is he? Did he say he would be late?" Ryou asked, giving himself whiskers over by a mirror. He was a black cat.

"No, I don't think so." Yugi said. Just then, there was a knocking on the door. "Oh, that must be him." Yugi said, running to the door. But when he got to the door, it was just a few trick or treaters, a cowboy and a princess. He gave them candy and walked back to the living room. "No, not him." Yugi said, until he heard another knock on the door. Yugi groaned before going to answer the door.

"Hi, Yugi." Atem said from the doorway.

"Oh, Atem! There you are, we were waiting for you. Come in!" Yugi said, stepping aside so Atem could come in. "You're not in your costume."

"Oh, yeah. I was wondering if I could change here?" Atem said, holding up a bag.

"Sure, you can use the bathroom when Bakura's done changing." Yugi told him as they walked into the living room.

"Atem! There you are!" Marik yelled, glomping Atem, causing him to yelp.

"Hi, Marik." He said, prying Marik off of him.

Bakura walked out of the bathroom in his costume a few minutes later. He would have worn fake fangs, but his k-9 teeth were already very sharp like he had fangs.

"Wow! Nice costume, 'Kura!" Marik said to Bakura.

"'Kura? What's that?" Bakura asked about the nickname. Marik just shrugged.

"I'm gonna go change into my costume now." Atem said, walking into the bathroom.

"Are we going up to the block party thing a few streets over?" Melvin asked adjusting his wings.

"Yeah, that sounds like fun." Ryou said, smiling.

"I've never been there before." Atem said, walking out of the bathroom in his costume.

"Wow! You really do look like a Pharaoh." Marik told him when he saw his costume. "You actually look a lot like the nameless Pharaoh."

"Who?" Yugi asked Marik.

"The nameless Pharaoh is the only Pharaoh that they have no records of. There is only one stone tablet with a carving with what he looks like, and a story that goes along with it. Saying how he fought one of his most loyal priests, there is no name on it though and the winner isn't stated. Along with the tablet, they also discovered seven items called the Millennium Item, I think that's the Millennium Puzzle around your neck there Atem." Marik explained. Everyone just stared at him shocked.

"How do you know all this?" Melvin asked Marik who just smirked.

"I go to the museum a lot." Marik replied.

"Oh, cool." Atem said, looking at himself in the mirror. He felt something hit him in the back of the head. He turned and looked at the ground and saw eyeliner. He raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Who chucked eyeliner at me?"

"Oh, I did. You can't look truly Egyptian without a little eyeliner!" Marik said, walking over to pick the eyeliner up off the ground and handing it to Atem.

"I'm not wearing makeup!"

"It's for a costume! And, I where eyeliner all the time, so it's not that weird."

"Yeah, that's not weird at all." Atem said, rolling his eyes. But he took it anyway and started to put it on.

"See? Much better!" Marik said when Atem finished. Atem chucked the eyeliner at Marik's head. "Ow, what the hell was that for?"

"For hitting me with it!" Atem yelled back. "Are you guys ready to go?"

"Yeah, lets go!" Yugi said, grabbing Melvin's hand and walking towards the door with the rest following behind.

The group of friends walked up and down the block gathering candy. Marik didn't even wait and save most of his, he ate almost half of it. And by now, he was having a major sugar rush. Now, they were on their way to the block party.

"OHMYGODGUYSTHISISGONNABESOFUN!" Marik yelled super fast.

"Marik, no more candy." Bakura told him, yanking his bag away from him. Marik just looked at him, until he figured out what he meant.

"Hey! That's my candy! Give it back 'Kura!" Marik yelled, trying to grab the bag from him. Bakura just turned and ran away. Marik chased after him. It only took a few seconds for Marik to catch up to Bakura, straddle him, and pin him to the ground thanks to the sugar. "GIVE ME THE CANDY!"

"Marik! Get off of me!" Bakura said, blushing.

"Not until you give me the candy!"

"I'll give you the candy when your sugar rush goes away you spaz!"

"NO! I want it now!"

"Yugi, catch!" Bakura yelled, chucking the bag of candy towards Yugi, who yelped and caught the bag. Marik got off Bakura and went after Yugi, who started running. Melvin caught Marik before he could get to Yugi though.

"No more candy!" Melvin yelled at Marik, who flinched when he realized if he had hurt Yugi that Melvin would have hurt him. So Marik nodded and Melvin released him from the headlock he had him in. Everyone continued walking, and Marik walked up to Bakura.

"Hey 'Kura, when I pinned you down I saw you blush. Did you like having me on top of you?" Marik asked Bakura with a smirk on his face. Bakura blushed again and looked away.

"No! I was mad you were on me!" He yelled but still not looking at Marik.

"I find that hard to believe." Marik said, still smirking in Bakura's direction. Bakura just went 'Ugh' and walked away beside Ryou.

"Bakura, you're red. Are you feeling ill?" Ryou asked when he saw Bakura blushing.

"No, I'm fine." Bakura told him.

"Well ok, if you say so." Ryou said as they all approached the block party, full of people. There were games set up all over, giving out candy as prizes. There was music playing over a stereo system set up. There was a costume contest being set up. "Hey guys, we should enter the costume contest, that sounds like fun!"

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea, Ryou." Atem said in agreement. With that, they walked over and entered the contest. It was going to be held in a half hour.

"Hey 'Kura, you think I'll win?" Marik asked Bakura, putting his arm around Bakura's shoulder. Bakura blushed again. "Hm, I can't touch you with you causing you to blush it seems, huh 'Kura?" Marik smirked.

"Marik get off of me! And stop calling me 'Kura!" Bakura tried pushing Marik off, but Marik just got closer to his face.

"Why 'Kura? You not like being touched?" He asked all up in Bakura's face.

Bakura blushed darker, which was really noticeable on his pale skin. "…Uh, I-I…" Bakura shook his head, clearing his thoughts. "I said get off of me!" Me managed to push Marik off him this time. Bakura noticed Yugi, Melvin, Ryou and Atem were staring at them. Bakura growled at himself for blushing. "What are you staring at?"

"You two." Melvin smirked at Bakura. "You two would make a cute couple." Melvin laughed at his joke, as did everyone else, except Bakura. Who looked madder, and redder.

Marik put an arm around Bakura's waist. "Heeey 'Kura." Marik laughed, until Bakura shoved him and he fell to the ground. "Ow! I was joking! You all are sensitive!"

"I think its just you and your pervertedness." Ryou told Marik who raised and eyebrow.

"You think I'm a perv?" Marik asked.

"Yes, very." Yugi said, laughing when Marik pouted. "And calm down, Bakura. We're just joking around."

"Whatever, lets just do something! Like a game." Bakura said, turning to look at the games.

"Ok, what do you guys wanna play? We still have twenty minutes left to spare before the contest starts." Atem said, also looking around.

"What about the three legged race?" Melvin said, pointing to where the race was taking place.

"Yeah! That's a good idea! Lets go!" Ryou said, running towards the race. They paired off like this:

Yugi and Melvin *Duh*. Marik and, after much arguing, Bakura. And Ryou and Atem. Marik and Bakura won.

"Yeah! We won 'Kura!" Marik yelled, glomping Bakura. He didn't fight him this time though, because he knew that would just make Marik annoy him more. Then, when Marik wouldn't let go, Bakura hugged him back. But he squeezed him, causing Marik to let go and pry Bakura off him. "Why'd you do that?"

"You wouldn't get off of me! I let you hug me, but you wouldn't let go."

"Attention, if you are participating in the costume contest, please report to your respective age groups." A voice said over an intercom.

"Hey guys, lets go! It's time to see which one of us has the best costume." Yugi said as they walked over to their age group. There were only two other ten two thirteen year olds participating in the contest. A girl dressed as Hannah Montana, and a boy dressed as a skeleton. The announcer said what they were as they walked out. After about five minutes of waiting, they announced who won. Atem came in first, Bakura came in second, and the skeleton kid came in third.

"Hey 'Kura! You placed! Nice job!" Marik said, glomping Bakura again.

Bakura just sighed. "Thanks Marik." He then got an idea to make Marik as embarrassed like Marik did to him. He leaned in and kissed Marik. But, what Marik did isn't what Bakura expected. Marik kissed back, causing Bakura to back off. Marik laughed at Bakura's face.

"What's the matter 'Kura? Didn't expect me to kiss back?" Marik smirked.

"Uh, no. I didn't." Bakura answered honestly.

"I saw that." Yugi said, chuckling when Marik and Bakura snapped around. "Like Melvin said, you two would make a good couple."

Marik turned to Bakura and winked, making Bakura blush again. Yugi and Marik laughed at that. "Are we dating now 'Kura?" Marik asked wrapping an arm around Bakura again.

Bakura leaned in and kissed Marik again, shocking Marik and the other three that just happened to walk up at that very moment. Marik kissed back, before Bakura broke the kiss, this time for air. He turned back to Yugi before he realized there were more people there.

"Did you guys enjoy the show?" Bakura smirked.

"It's about time you two got together." Melvin told the two.

"Now I'm the only single one!" Ryou said, sounding all disappointed.

"Hm, I don't know Ryou. If things don't work out between me and Seto, I'll probably be single too." Atem said, putting a hand of Ryou's shoulder.

"True, but hopefully, things turn out good with you and Kaiba." Ryou told Atem reassuringly.

Hee! I just couldn't help but put a little Thiefshipping in this chapter! And a brief history lesson. I hope you guys liked this chapter. Until next time America…and the rest of the world!
