Chapter 3- The New Kids

~Tuesday Morning~

Yugi woke up to his alarm clock the next morning. He shut it off before he forced himself to get up.

A few minutes later, there was a knock on his door. "Yugi, you up?" Touma asked.

"Yeah. I'm up." Yugi answered.

Touma walked in and said, "Do you mind helping me get the others up? You know the only other one who might have gotten up at the alarm is Heba."

"No problem." Yugi said.

The two walked out of Yugi's room and saw Heba leave his.

"I figured you'd want help getting the others up." Heba said before he yawned.

"Yeah. We could use the help." Touma said.

"Well, I'll get Jou up." Yugi said.

"I'll get Malik." Heba said.

"Then I'll get Ryou up and then I'll-" Touma started.

"JUN! WHAT ARE YOU DOING WAKING ME UP?!" Malik suddenly shouted.

Jun dashed out of Malik's room.

"Jun, what are you doing up?" Touma asked.

"It's the first day of school. I can't wait to go." Jun said.

"Well, why don't you two go on downstairs? Heba and I will get the others up." Yugi said.

"If you say so." Touma said before he went downstairs with Jun.

Yugi and Heba got the other three that lived in the house up.

All five showered and got ready for school and went downstairs to where Touma was sitting at the table with Jun.

"Sit down and eat." Touma said.

The five did as they were told.

"I can't let you all walk to school, so you'll have to drive." Touma said.

"Can we take the firebird?" Jou asked excitedly.

"The only way that I am letting you take that is if Yugi drives." Touma said.

"No problem." Yugi said.

"And I need you to drop Jun off at Domino Elementary. I have some things I need to handle in regards to the concert Friday." Touma said.

"Okay. We saw it yesterday. It's on the way to the high school." Yugi said.

"And behave in school today." Touma said, looking at Malik and Jou.

"Why are you looking at us?" Jou asked.

"Because you're the ones that always cause trouble." Touma answered.


"Everyone, get up! It's time for school!" Seiji shouted.

Slowly, Yami, Atemu, and Seto got out of bed.

In ten minutes, they were downstairs.

"Where are Marik and Bakura?" Seiji asked.

"They're not up yet." Yami answered.

Seiji sighed and headed up stairs.

"Three." Seto said.

"Two." Yami said.

"One." Atemu said.

"MARIK! BAKURA! GET OUT OF BED RIGHT NOW! YOU HAVE SCHOOL TODAY!" Seiji shouted.

Seto sighed. "Those two never learn, do they?" Seto asked.

"I think that they just like to try and get under Seiji's skin." Atemu replied.

Soon, Seiji came back downstairs with a rather irritated Bakura and a sulking Marik.

"Honestly, after three years of this, you two should be used to me forcing you to get up." Seiji said as he forced the two to sit down.

"Well, we hate school." Bakura grumbled.

"Look on the bright side, Bakura." Yami said.

"What bright side?" Bakura demanded.

"We get to show Vivian and Anzu that we don't need their tickets today, which means that we get the chance to embarrass them." Atemu explained.

Marik brightened. "I forgot about that. We have to go and watch their reactions, Bakura." Marik said.

Bakura smirked. "Believe me. There is no way that I am going to miss something like that." Bakura agreed.

"Just don't do anything that is going to get you guys in trouble at school. I don't want to be called down there because you did something wrong to them." Seiji said.

"Seiji, it would be those two that you need to worry about." Seto said, pointing at Marik and Bakura.

"Why are you singling us out?" Bakura demanded.

"Because you're the two that he does have to worry about. Atemu, Yami, and I don't do anything to get in trouble." Seto replied.

"The warning applies to all of you. If I get called down there, you're all going to be cleaning this mansion and doing the yard work for the next three months. I'm sure the groundskeepers and the maids would love the time off." Seiji said.

"Fine. We won't do anything." Bakura said.

"Good. You're going to have to drive yourselves to school today." Seiji said.

"Can we take the Camaro?" Bakura asked excitedly.

"Only if Seto or Atemu drives." Seiji replied.

"Sure. I'll drive it." Seto said.

"Good. Now get to school." Seiji said.


Yugi, Heba, Jou, Malik, and Ryou arrived at the Domino High School administration office.

"What can I do for you?" the secretary asked.

"We're new and we needed to pick up our schedules." Yugi explained.

"What are your names?" the secretary asked.

"Yugi Mutou." Yugi said.

"Heba Mutou." Heba said.

"Katsuya Jonouchi." Jou said.

"Malik Ishtar." Malik said.

"Ryou Bakura." Ryou said.

The secretary found their schedules and handed them to them.

The five left.

"Well, we have a lot of the classed together." Ryou said.

"Yeah. We all have first period together." Malik said.

"Looks like you're alone in third, Yug." Jou said.

"I'll be fine, Jou." Yugi said.

The group started searching the school so that they would know where their classrooms were.


Yami, Atemu, Seto, Marik, and Bakura walked into the school grounds.

There were guys and girls who were watching them lustfully as they walked.

"You know, all these looks get real annoying." Bakura said.

"Not like any of them would try anything. They know that we have no shame in telling it like it is." Bakura said.

"All except for Anzu and Vivian." Marik said.

"Well, those two are in for a shock today." Bakura said.

The five arrived at their first period and sat down.

"Well, the slut's making her way over here now." Marik said.

Sure enough, Anzu started over to them, but the teacher came in and called the class to order.

With a pout on her face, Anzu sat down.

"You know, the pout makes her even uglier than she usually is." Marik said.

"Yeah. It couldn't even be called a pout." Bakura said.

"Mao! Ishtal! No talking!" the teacher snapped.

"Yes, ma'am." the two said.

"Now, we have some new students today." the teacher said. She motioned for them to come in.

Yugi, Heba, Malik, Ryou, and Jou filed in.

Yami, Atemu, Ryou, and Bakura were surprised by their look-alikes.

"Please introduce yourselves and tell us something about yourselves." the teacher said.

"My name is Yugi Mutou, and I like playing games and music. I also play the guitar." Yugi said.

"I'm Heba Mutou. I play games, too. I can play the guitar, too. I also like baseball." Heba said.

"My name's Malik Ishtar. I play the drums, and I like to hang out with my friends." Malik said.

"I am Ryou Bakura. I play the bass guitar, and I like the read." Ryou said.

"My name's Katsuya Jonouchi, but everyone calls me Jou. I play the electric guitar, and I enjoy playing football." Jou said.

"Any questions for them?" the teacher asked the class.

"Are you two twins?" a girl asked, looking at Yugi and Heba.

"Yes, we are." Yugi said.

"Where did you move from?" another girl asked.

"We used to live in Tokyo." Ryou said.

"All right. Sit wherever you like and we'll get started." the teacher said.

There were two seats open at the back with three in front of the two, so they went back and sat there.

The class started.


Yami walked into his third period class and sat down. He was still thinking about the five from his first period. 'Who are they, and why did those two look like me and Atemu?' Yami asked himself.

"Hello, Yami." Anzu said in a sickeningly sweet voice.

Yami glared at her. "What do you want?" Yami growled.

"I just wanted to let you know that the offer of the Hikari and Aibou ticket is still open." Anzu said, fluttering her eyelashes.

Yami wanted to puke. "I am nit going on a date with you, Anzu. I'd rather go to the dentist than go with you." Yami said.

"You won't see the concert any other way." Anzu snapped.

Yami looked up at her. "Anzu, you would probably force me to sleep with you in order to repay you for letting me go, and I am not doing that. Besides, I don't need the ticket." Yami said.

"And why not?' Anzu demanded.

"Simple. My cousin pre-ordered them, but could only pick them up yesterday. Seiji gave them to us last night." Yami answered.

Anzu's eyes widened. "No! You're lying." Anzu said.

"Afraid not. I have a ticket to go. I don't need yours. Find some other sucker to go with you." Yami said.

Anzu gaped at him, unable to believe that she couldn't trick Yami into a date with her as well as get into his pants.

The teacher walked in and said, "Class, sit down."

Anzu was still stunned.

"Mazaki! Sit down right now!" the teacher ordered.

Anzu sat down, sulking.

Yami was mentally smirking. 'I wouldn't have gone with her anyway.' Yami thought.

"Class, we have a new student now." the teacher said.

Yugi walked into the room.

"Introduce yourself, please." the teacher said.

"My name is Yugi Mutou." Yugi answered.

"We usually sit in alphabetical order, but since you just came, I'll put you at the end so you'll sit next to Yami Sennen. Yami, raise your hand." the teacher said.

Yami raised his hand, and Yugi went to sit on his right.

"Class, you'll be doing the work on pages 23-27. Do them all, and you can ask anyone around you for help, but don't leave your seats." the teacher said.

Everyone started working on the chemistry problems.

Yami wasn't that good at chemistry and tried to do the problems and was struggling with his problems.

Yugi was good at chemistry and was flying through them.

Yami was trying to do his work when a shadow loomed over him. He glanced up and nearly growled when he saw Anzu looking at him.

"Yami dear, I'm having trouble with my work. Can you help me?" Anzu asked, fluttering her eyelashes.

Yugi saw this and thought she just looked stupid doing that.

"Anzu, I'm having trouble myself, so I can't help you." Yami said.

"If we work together, maybe we can figure them out." Anzu said, trying to get close to him.

"Mazaki!" the teacher scolded.

Anzu jumped slightly.

"Sit back down. I said you can ask help from students near you. I said not to get out of your seats. Sit down, and if you get up again, you will be going to the principal's office." the teacher said.

"Yes, ma'am." Anzu said before sitting down in her seat, disappointed.

"Thank goodness." Yami said under his breath.

"Excuse me." Yugi said.

Yami turned to look at Yugi beside him. "Yeah?" Yami asked.

"I couldn't help, but hear you say that you were having trouble. I can help you if you want." Yugi said.

"I would appreciate that." Yami said.

Yugi started to explain the problems to Yami. It wasn't long before Yami was starting to get it.

Anzu watched them angrily, jealous that Yugi was so close to Yami.


At lunch, Yami sat with Atemu, Marik, Bakura, and Seto.

"So, how did Anzu take the news?" Bakura asked.

Yami smirked. "It was great. She came to me and said that the offer was still open. I told her no, and that I didn't need the ticket." Yami said.

"She demanded to know why, I'm sure." Marik said.

"Yes. I told her that I had tickets. I also said that Seiji had pre-ordered and gave them to us last night. She said that I was lying, and I said that I wasn't, and that I didn't need her ticket. I also told her to find another sucker to go with her." Yami said.

Bakura, Marik, and Atemu started to laugh as Seto just smirked.

"I wish that I could have seen that." Atemu said.

"Well, you still have one more chance. Here comes slut number two." Seto said.

Sure enough, Vivian was walking toward them.

"This should be fun." Marik said.

Vivian waltzed up to them and said, "Hi, Atemu."

"What do you want, Vivian?" Atemu asked.

"I wanted to let you know that the offer of the tickets was still open. All you have to do is go out on a date with me." Vivian said.

"And I'm sure you mean for it to end with us in your bed." Atemu said.

Vivian smirked. "Of course. You'd have the time of your life, and it would be the perfect way to end the date." Vivian said.

"Well, I will have to say no." Atemu said.

Vivian's face vaulted. "Why not?! You won't be able to see the concert if you don't take my offer!" Vivian snapped angrily.

Atemu smirked. "I don't need your tickets because we already have tickets." Atemu said.

"No you don't! The concert is sold out, and you didn't have any yesterday." Vivian said.

"True. You see, our cousin pre-ordered them without us knowing it, and he couldn't pick them up until yesterday. He gave them to us last night." Seto said.

Vivian's mouth dropped open at that. She couldn't believe that they ended up having tickets already.

"Now, if you would excuse us, we were having a quiet lunch without all of you around." Bakura said.

Vivian glared at him before she stormed off.

"That was interesting." Seto said.

"And funny." Marik said as he started laughing along with Bakura.

"Oh. Look. It's the copycats." Atemu growled.

The group looked to see Yugi, Heba, Malik, Ryou, and Jou sitting under the Sakura tree.

"Where do they get off copying our look?" Bakura said, equally angry.

"Uh, guys." Yami said, not liking where this was going.

"Let's give them what for." Marik said.

"I'll come along." Seto said.

Yami covered his eyes. 'Oh no.' Yami thought.


"So, how was your class with none of us?" Jou asked Yugi.

"It was fine. One of those girls that we heard talking at the mall was there. I figure she was trying to get the guy she was obsessed to go with him to the concert, but he already had a ticket." Yugi said.

"That's good." Heba said.

They were surprised when Seto, Marik, Bakura, and Atemu approached.

"We'd like to know what you people are doing." Bakura said.

"What are you talking about?" Malik asked.

"Where do you get off copying our look?" Marik demanded.

"Your look? I'll have you know that we were born the way we look." Ryou snapped.

"Really? Who else has star-shaped hair?" Atemu demanded.

Heba got angry and stood up. "Listen. I don't even know who you are, so stop it. We couldn't have copied your look because we never saw you before now. So don't go making accusations that you can't back up." Heba said.

"Really? I'd say that this is proof enough." Bakura said, gesturing to Yugi, Heba, Malik, and Ryou.

Ryou stood up and said, "You know you have an ugly attitude. Matches your face!"

"You little-" Bakura started going after him.

Seto grabbed him and restrained him. "Bakura, don't he's not worth it." Seto said.

"Yeah. Sounds like you're a chicken who thinks that you'll lose." Jou said mockingly.

"What did you say, mutt?" Seto demanded.

"I'm not a mutt!" Jou growled.

"Looks like you copycats need to be taught a lesson." Atemu said.

Yugi looked to where Yami was, and Yami's eyes clearly said 'I'm sorry'.

"Really? You think that you can take us?" Malik asked.

"We most certainly can." Marik said.

Yami saw a fight coming and ran over. "Guys, stop. You know Seiji would kill us if we got in a fight at school." Yami said.

"You need to stop, too. Touma will kill you, too. You know he forbids fighting." Yugi said.

"Fine. This is isn't over, copycats." Bakura growled.

"Same to you, Smartass." Ryou retorted.

Atemu, Seto, Marik, and Bakura headed over to the picnic table while Heba, Malik, Ryou, and Jou turned away.

Yami mouthed 'I'm sorry' to Yugi.

Yugi nodded and mouthed 'Not your fault'.


Atemu, Bakura, Marik, and Seto stormed into the house.

"Can you believe those copycats?!" Bakura growled.

"They have some nerve!" Marik added.

Seiji came into the room and looked at them bewildered.

"They're a bunch of lowlifes." Seto growled.

"They need attitude adjustments." Atemu added in.

The four headed upstairs.

Yami sighed and said, "Seiji, a little advice."

Seiji led Yami into his office. "What happened?" Seiji asked.

"There were five new students today. Two of them looked a great deal like Atemu and me. They were twins, too. One looked like Marik, and one looked like Bakura." Yami said.

"So?" Seiji said.

"Seiji, they could have passed for our siblings." Yami said.

"Okay. What got into them?" Seiji asked.

"Well, they went to them at lunch and basically called them copycats. They were wanting to start something. There was almost a fight as they got into it with them. I had to stop it with Yugi's help." Yami said.

"Who's Yugi?" Seiji asked.

"One of them. He's in my chemistry class. He seemed real nice, so I don't know why they started that." Yami said.

Seiji sighed. "Not good. This isn't like Atemu and Seto." Seiji said.

"I know. This isn't good." Yami said.

"Well, keep them from fighting. There's not much more that you can do." Seiji said.

Yami nodded.


"I don't believe this!" Jou growled as they walked into their mansion.

"Those guys were nothing but a bunch of jerks!" Ryou added.

"Jerks?! They were being asses!" Malik snarled.

"I can't believe that they did that! We should have kicked their asses!" Jou growled.

"We will when we're not in school." Heba said as they went upstairs.

Yugi turned and faced a stunned Touma and a confused Jun.

"What's wrong?" Jun asked.

"Problems at school. Could you go upstairs so I can talk to Touma?" Yugi asked.

Jun nodded and headed upstairs.

"This way." Touma said. He led Yugi into his office. "What are they ranting about?" Touma asked

"When we went to school, there were two guys that looked like me and Heba, One looked like Ryou and one looked like Malik. I didn't think much of it. At lunch, four of them came over and called us copycats because we looked like them. They were basically threatening each other with fights. I was worried there would be a fight. Yami helped me stop one." Yugi said.

"Who's Yami?" Touma asked.

"He's one of the ones that look like me and Heba. He helped me stop the fight." Yugi said.

"He wasn't in on it with them?" Touma asked.

"No. One of the five didn't look like anyone. I don't know what it was about. I have Yami in my chemistry class, and he seems to be real nice. I even helped him with the problems we had to do in class since he was having trouble." Yugi said.

"Well, I can't help you, Yugi. Just try and stop them from fighting." Touma said.

"I'll do what I can." Yugi said.


In chemistry class the next day, Yugi and Yami talked before class.

"Yugi, I'm real sorry about yesterday. I don't know what got into them." Yami said.

"It's not your fault. You can't control what they think and do anymore than I can control what my brother and friends thinks and do." Yugi said.

"I wish I knew what got into them." Yami said.

"Well, we just need to try and keep them away from each other." Yugi said.

"That won't be easy." Yami said.

"We have to try. I really don't want any of them getting in trouble for fighting." Yugi said.

"Neither do I. We'll do the best that we can." Yami said.

The two were determined to try and stop any more fight between their friends and family.


Hope you liked it. I wanted to give the ohter couples a rocky start and give Yugi and Yami the asy one for a change. I always make Yugi and Yami the ones that have trouble starting their relationship, so I changed it up this time.

Next: The groups clash some more, and Touma and Seiji meet for the first time. Or is this their first meeting?

R&R.
