hey guys sorry it took me so long! i hate writers block!
well here's chapter 4! Read and Review please!!!
"you're here because….. mark wants to do a duel show, as in two people on the ice instead of one..
"Oh, then why did he say that Seto got the wrong person?" Yami chuckled
"He was talking about me, Seto thought he hit me with the dart but hit you instead and brought you in. Marik and Malik were supposed to be going after you because you saw me and we were talking, they were to make sure that you didn't know anything, but when they saw me they brought me in after they hit me up side the back side of the head" he rubbed the back of his head and grimaced at the memory.
Yugi winced "that had to hurt" Yami nodded
"It did, remind me later to take the rod away from those too" yugi giggled and nodded
"Well let's go" said Yami standing, Yugi following Yami down the hallway towards the ring so Yugi could join the other participants. After the first 15 min. mark had literally cut the participants in half; Yugi and Tea a part of the group.
"All righty now, Yami around the ring and double spin." Yami nodded and did as requested, making a perfect double spin and landing neatly. Mark nodded approvingly and turned to the 5 people who were left
"Ok you", he points to a nervous redhead, "you do a double spin" the red head nodded and skated off. The red head could skate well frontwards and backwards but he couldn't jump to save his life and landed ungracefully on his behind. Mark shook his head and jerked his thumb over his shoulder signalling that he was out, and the read head skated quickly off the ring. He did the other two and both could skate well, but one jumped landed and sprained an ankle, the other jumped, landed but slipped and slid forward and hit his head on the wall as he came to a stop. He rubbed his temples as a head ache came on
"Next!" he bellowed and waved his hand at Tea, she showed off slightly as she skated backwards around the corner and came smoothly into a double jump, and landed gracefully with her arms out to the sides, eyes closed.
"Finally" mark muttered under his breath and turns to Yugi. "Ok your turn." Yugi nodded, and skated around the corner to get started, unknowing to him Yami crossed his fingers as he started off. Yugi smoothly went around the corner, and smoothly went into a double jump and landed like Tea with arms out to the sides but his eyes were open, watching mark for the dismissal sign…… that never came, instead he got a nod and beckoned Yugi over to where he and Tea were standing. Tea was fuming, checks flushed, but it could have just been the temperature in the ice ring.
"ok, Yami one last one……. Triple jump" Yami's eyes went wide. Yami couldn't believe it he was going all the way with just trainees. He shook his head slightly as he started off a little faster then for the double jump. He once again from his high speed went smoothly into a triple jump and landed, skating over to where the others were waiting. Tea's eyes were full of amazement and what was that …… lust? He couldn't be sure but he was so hoping that Yugi could pull off a triple, because he didn't want to be around Tea any more than necessary. Mark turned to Tea and Yugi
"Ok, who ever can pull off a triple can join the team but any flaw and you're out, but if neither of you make it you both can join, but well have 5 min. break so we can grab something warm to drink." Everyone nodded in understanding and started off the ring. Tea skated over to Yami, and started talking a mile a minute on how great she was and how great she was feeling on being Yami's partner in the ring. Yami scooted away from her but she just kept coming closer, until finally Yami skated around Yugi so he was on the other side of him and Tea was on the other side still talking. Then for about a minute they were playing keep away, with Yami running and Tea following around Yugi, Yami desperately trying to stay away from the hyper girl. Yugi finally took pity on the skater and tapped his shoulder.
"Can I talk to you a minute?" he looks at Tea
"Alone"
Tea glared at Yugi as Yami quickly agreed, and Yugi pulling Yami into the boy's bathroom. Yami sighed as the door closed and looked at Yugi, who had a big grin on his face.
"What?" he asked. Yami raised an eyebrow.
"You know exactly what." It was Yugi's turn to raise an eyebrow.
"What's with the grin?"
"I just thought the look on Tea's was funny she wasn't expecting you to agree so quickly, it's almost like you wanted to get away from her or something." Yami chuckled.
"It would seem like that" he said with a straight face, which made Yugi burst out laughing, Yami joining in just as quickly.
As soon as the two composed themselves they exited the bathroom, and went to the custodian to grab something to drink and sit down. Tea saw them exit the bathroom both with smiles on their faces and thought 'Yami will be MY partner and no one else's, I'm not sharing MY Yami' and with that she walked over with a smile on her face, her drink in hand and sat down by Yugi who was taking with Yami about music.
"So you like rock?" asked Yugi taking a sip of his drink. Yami shrugged.
"It's ok, I'm more of a country/rock fan."
"Really? I never would have guessed country." Yami was about to say something when Tea interrupted.
"Yami, I love country maybe we should get together some time to swap ideas sometime." Tea said swinging her leg over her other leg putting her ice blade deep into Yugi's ankle.
"Ahhh" Yugi said as the blade cut his ankle, reaching down to cover it with his hand.
"oh, Yugi I'm so sorry I didn't know I was that close!" she wailed as she pulled her skate away. "I'll go get the first aid kit" and she ran off 'yes, now Yugi will have to drop out because of his injury he can't skate on that ankle.' She thought smiling slightly as she watched Yami come around the table to check on Yugi's ankle.
"oh, it looks like she got you good there Yugi, I don't think you should skate on this ankle let alone try a triple jump." Yami said frowning.
"I'm ok Yami let's just wrap it and I'll be fine" Yugi said wincing when Yami touched it.
"Yugi you are not fine, that is deep and it needs to be treated…" Yugi shook his head
"Seriously, I'll be fine I've done a triple before on a sprained ankle once it wasn't pretty but I can do one." Yami's frown deepened
"Are you sure, we don't want it getting infected and you hurting it worse when you land."
"Yami it's on my right ankle, that's my push off ankle. Once I'm in the air I'll be ok, when I did it on my sprained ankle the sprain was on my left foot so I was landing hard on it that's why it wasn't pretty."
"ok, Yugi I'll let you be the judge, if it gets too much tell us ok?"
"ok, I can do that" Yugi said as Tea came back with the kit "thanks Tea."
"you're welcome Yugi" she handed the kit to Yami as he wrapped the ankle after he disinfected it.
"there you go, now are you positive you want to go through with this?" he asked again finishing
Yugi sighed "yes Yami, I'll do my triple and sit down will that make you happy?"
Yami nodded "just tell Mike when you, do don't want him to think you dropped out or something."
"and ruin my chances with you on the ice, not a chance" Yami laughed at Yugi's face as he said that because he looked so serious when he said it but all it did was make him look cute. 'CUTE where did that come from? Geez, get your head out of the gutter man' he mentally scolded himself.
"All right everyone on the ice!" bellowed Mike as he opened the door to the ring, and every one followed him onto the ice.
Mark skated into the middle of the ring spinning around to see his contestants, to see Yugi favoring his left ankle. "Muto what's with the ankle, I won't have any weaklings on my team."
Yugi looked at him "its fine sir. I just scraped it, it won't influence my skating." Mark raised an eyebrow
"If you're sure, don't blame me if you don't pass because of that ankle." Yugi nodded
"Sr. may I go first?" tea asked fluttering her eyelashes at Mark. Mark thought a moment then nodded, she grinned, closed her eyes took a deep breath, then started off eyes closed. She smoothly went over the ice of the first turn, opening her eyes as she came about middle then gracefully shoved her toe pick into the ice she rotated, once….Twice….three times as she came down landed but then tripped over a chunk of ice that came up from someone else's fall, and fell flat on the ice. Yami winced as she landed but didn't move from where he was standing. Tea flushed face, form either the cold, rage or embarrassment, Yami couldn't tell which but all the same she was beet red and Yami grinned at the sight.
Mark muttered under his breath about graceful people and their ego, Yugi barely held back a snicker as he heard it, as Tea came to a stop right next to Yami latching onto his arm. Mark shook his head as he turned to Yugi.
"ok, don't say I didn't warn you." Yugi nodded again and started off. Using his right foot as a base he glided around the corner picking up speed as he went. Finally as he reached the middle of the ring, briefly shifting his weight to his injured ankle, then he shoved hard into the ice with his right foot toe pick and sailed into the air.
