Chapter Eight

"What's going on ?!" Kate screamed.

"Where are the boys ?! don't we have at least six of them in apartment ?!" Azuka exclaimed.

"Come on, girls ! let's find out !" Renzu stood up and picked up her pepper-spray.

Azuka opened the door to see the dark hallway, she walked outside the door. Kate followed behind.

A louder scream was heard, this caused the girls to fall down the stairs and hit the ground with a 'BANG'

"What was that ?!" Bakura jumped and grabbed his hikari's hand.

"Um…Bakura…" Ryou said awkwardly.

"WHAT ?!" Bakura then noticed their hands and blinked, "oh…sorry" he let go.

Marik stood up and went to see where the noise came from. "Umm…you girls alright ?" he said as he looked at the three girls over each other.

"We're fine. We heard screaming, is everything ok ?" Azuka asked.

"Oh ! Yeah ! only a horror movie" he replied with a grin.

"Oh…cool" Kate said and stood up casually like nothing happened, the others followed.

"everything fine ?" Yugi asked.

"Yeah. And why is it so dark in here ?" Renzu said as she opened the lights, reveling the girls' sexy pyjamas. This made all three Yamis nosebleed, the girls giggled.

"um…you might wanna wipe that." Ryou chuckled as he held up a box of tissues for the Yamis.

An hour later, each girl was sitting beside her lover. Every time a scary scene hits the screen, the girls would grab a hold on their lovers with a scream.

Soon enough, everyone was soundly asleep in their rooms.

Suddenly, came a 'Crash' from down, which woke everyone up.

"What was that ?!" Azuka ran to the room's door. Kate and Renzu followed.

The nine people all met on the stairs, everyone looked worried.

"Who could be down there ?" Ryou said worriedly.

Just then, another loud sound was heard, which caused the girls to grab a hold of each other.

"Where's that effing broom ?!" Yami Marik said as he ran into the kitchen and brought back three brooms, one for each Yami.

As for Ryou, he ran upstairs to find his hairdryer and hid behind Yugi again.

" Where is that sound coming from ?" Atem said cautiously as he heard a 'BANG' from the basement (Yes, the apartment has a basement xD)

"I have a feeling whoever it is, they're down there." Bakura pointed.

"It's a pest ! that's what it is ! a lousy pest !" Yami Marik yelled as he lead the way, still holding the broom.

"It's a thief !" Bakura smirked.

"DING DING DING ! WE HAVE A WINNER !" Atem mocked. "Of course it's a thief, Florance !"

Azuka blinked at her boyfriend's weird behavior and folded her arms.

Atem looked at her, "What ?" he raised an eyebrow. "He had it coming"

Marik sighed and followed his Yami to the basement. Bakura quickly stopped him and stood in front of the group.

"Leave this to the specialists. AKA; Me, Yami Marik and Atem !"

The three other unmentioned boys groaned but agreed. The Yamis all holding brooms, walked down the basement's stairs.

"On three…" Atem started. "One…Two…"

…Silence…..

Suddenly, the six upstairs started to hear shouting and yelling. There were wrestling noises downstairs.

"What's going on down there ?!" Ryou exclaimed.

The place fell silent once more…..

"Did they catch the thief ?" Marik asked as he lead the way downstairs.

"Where're the lights ?" Azuka said as she searched for the switch with her hands on the wall.

"There !" Yugi said as he opened the lights, "Now, what's-" he paused and stared at the three Yamis on the ground.

"Ha ! that'll teach ya to try and hit me with a broom !" a voice said.

The girls looked up at where the voice came from. They saw a blond female standing with her bag on her back.

Azuka blinked, "Cousin Akari ?"

"COUSIN ?!" the three Yamis exclaimed in surprise as they were on the ground.

"Hm ? A-Azuka ? wha- OH RA ! Atem ?! Bakura ?! Marik ?! BOYS ARE YOU OKAY ?!" Akari jumped away from the Yamis.

"A couple of twisted ankles but don't worry.." Marik joked.

The three on the floor glared at him.

"Heh ! sorry boys." Akari said as she rubbed the back of her head but her impression turns to a furious one, "BUT YOU TRIED TO HIT ME WITH AN UNCLEAN BROOM ! so, you deserve it" she smiled.

"SERIOESLY ?! WHO TOLD YOU TO SNEAK INTO OUR APARMENT AT 3 AM ?!" Atem yelled from under the pile of Yamis.

Akari leans to his level, "You want more of this ?" she held up a fist, "If you do, talk to me like this again !" she dared him. Atem fell silent.

"COUSIN ! STOP MESSING WITH OUR BOYFRIENDS !" Renzu shouted.

"Boyfriends ?! them ?! cousin says what now ?!" Akari blinked.

"YES ! and the one you just shouted at is MY BOYFRIEND !" Azuka grew a vein.

"Well, that will teach him !" she looked back to the Yamis, "now what happened to you all was a lesson ! From now on, you call me 'Your highness' !" she smirked. "Got it ?!"

"Y-yes Akari." Y. Marik said.

Akari raised a fist. "What did you just say ?!"

"He means your highness !" Bakura said in a shaking tone.

"That's more like it !" she grinned. Everyone else laughed.

Thirty minutes later, everyone was in the living room.

"you know, they sorta…kinda…had the rights to attack you. You DID sneak in." Kate said.

"I knocked thousands of times on the door but no one opened !" Akari exclaimed. "You want me to sleep outside in the cold weather ?" she made puppy eyes.

The three Yamis tried to look away to avoid the cute.

"That girl is gifted." Marik sighed.

"What brings you here anyway ?" Atem looked back at her.

"You know, a long flight from Egypt and I finally finished my research !" Akari grinned.

"Oh ! finally !" Yami Marik smirked. "took ya long enough !"

Author's note : I know I said I'd put more original characters but this was sort of a promise that I put Akari. DON'T KILL ME !

Hope you liked it ! R&R !
