With the yamis, Atem/Yami talking

I've made a lot of stupid choices in my life. Being well over 5,000 years old I've had plenty of time to make said choices. But, as of 2 hours ago I made the worst one to date. It is now 10AM. And I am standing with at least ten bags in each hand, waiting for my hikari to come out of the next store…like I have for the past hour… only difference is I am now ready to collapse. The great pharaoh of Egypt is now a pack mule for his lover.

I looked to my left and saw Marik and Bakura sitting on the bench next to the chair I was in looking about as deflated as I was. 2 hours ago our little lovers decided that instead of spending the day lounging around like we wanted, that is was time to get clothing. Of course we agreed, thinking it would be a good idea. We were wrong. I looked back up to the store and noticed the little lovers at the checkout, with more clothing. I turned to the others for a second time, "Hey, when they come out, if they suggest another store, grab them and pull them away. We carry them if need be." I said in a very blunt voice.

They looked to me and smirked, "is our king actually suggesting that we kidnap our little lovers. Why I never..." Bakura said.

I looked at him with a deadpan look, "Oh I'm sorry thief, would you like to stay here and carry another couple hundred bags? Cause I can give you a couple if you want them that badly." He looked at me with wide eyes and quickly shook his head. "That's what I thought, now shut it, here they come."

Just as I finished Yugi, Ryou, and Malik all walked out and began walking toward the rest of us.

"Hey guys, hope you didn't wait long!" Ryou stated seeming completely satisfied with his purchases. We smiled at him and the other hikaris.

"We didn't wait too long. Anywhere else?" I asked.

Yugi spoke up this time, "no, we hit all the major stores and have enough clothing for you guys to have clothing for about two weeks and some lounging clothes. Luckily enough we hit the underwear store first. Now then," he paused, "we are going to the bathrooms and getting you guys changed. You're all dressed in clothing barely large enough for you all."

Marik, Bakura, and I all nodded, just happy that we were done with the shopping. We all headed to the bathrooms which were luckily easy to find seeing as there were at least 15 signs pointing to them. Our hikaris got clothing picked out for us and we each got in a stall.

Just with Yami

I headed into the stall and locked the door, I set the clothing Yugi handed me on the trash bin nailed to the stall wall. I began stripping the borrowed clothing. I had to borrow more clothing from Yugi this morning. Having just simple jeans and a t-shirt one was all I had seeing as it was all that fit. I tugged of the shirt and reached for the pile of clothing. I picked up one piece but ended up having something fall from inside it, "What the-" I began.

"The Black long sleeve shirt goes underneath the purple one." I heard Yugi say from outside the stall. I somehow began to feel like a doll…

Ignoring my inner thoughts I slipped on the black shirt and pulled on the purple overcoat after. I noticed the black shirt only came to about my lower navel and the overcoat only buttoned to a little above the black shirt. I shrugged it off, figuring Yugi wanted me to wear it so I put it on obediently.

Next I unbuttoned the jeans and let them fall; I had no underwear since even the boxers Yugi had me wear were a little too big. I rubbed my hips a bit noticing they were red from the jeans I was wearing being too tight. I eventually reached back into the pile and found a pair of men's underwear, I couldn't remember what Yugi had called them but they weren't boxers. I vaguely wondered why Yugi bought different ones but when I reached back into the pile and pulled out pants I could easily see they were tight and wouldn't go well with boxers. I pulled on the pants noting they too were black.

The last thing in the pile was a pair of leather boots with small detailing on the rims and ankles. They flared at the rims so I left them outside the jeans. I grabbed the other clothing and slipped out the stall.

With Bakura

'How fucking annoying…' I thought to myself as I was rushed into a stall with a pile of clothing. I sighed and stripped out of the white and blue shirt Ryou lent me this morning. I rummaged through the pile and saw a black shirt with what looked like webs in the lower right corner with multiple sized skulls running throughout the shirt. Going across the chest were the words "F*cking Boo!" with a small ghost at the end. I smirked at it, "Thanks Ryou!" I called to the outside of the stall. I could practically see his blush from in the stall as he called back a short "You're welcome."

I pulled the shirt on and then let the loose 'capris', that I was forced to wear that morning, fall to the floor. I pulled the underwear out of the pile and threw them on while reaching for the pants. I wondered what kind of underwear they were since Ryou never told me. They were tight and squeezed my upper thighs but not too uncomfortable. They worked but I would need to get used to them.

I pulled on the jeans and liked them immediately. They reached longer than the floor and though they weren't super loose they didn't hug my legs like the capris had. They were a pale gray with criss-cross lines on them by the pockets, knees, and heels. I also saw a belt, I knew my jeans didn't need them but as I was about to ask Ryou I remembered seeing a fashion poster on the way to the mall and the guy had a belt going across his hips over his clothes.

'It's official…Ryou has made me his next model…' I told myself. I put the belt across my hips and made sure it wouldn't fall. Lastly was a pale creamy white coat. It was obviously meant to be open as a fashion, but the sleeves were loose and the shoulders fit perfectly. Ryou must have remembered in my thief days I wore that large robe thing*. I smiled at his thoughtfulness for a moment before I caught myself and put my face back in order. I quickly picked up the old clothes and walked out the stall.

With Marik

I walked into the stall and looked through the pile of clothing. Most of it I wasn't really sure about. There was a shirt with the sleeves barely attached at the underarms and was almost see through thin. Another was a shirt with no sleeves at all and a buckle at the shoulder. I stared at them but heard the other moving and clothing dropping to the floor so I began to strip out of the clothing I was given by Malik.

I pulled the thing almost sleeveless shirt on first. Seeing as it was the thinnest I figured it would be under everthing else. Next I pulled buckled shirt over it. I grabbed the pants and almost put them on but saw there was very short pants on the floor. I never remember seeing them before but figured they belonged under the pants seeing as they were so small.

They hugged my hips and upper thighs. It felt weird but I let it go in favor of getting dressed quicker. After I got the pants on I noticed they were quite tight and hugged my legs all the way to my ankle where they loosened. I ignored that as well and pulled on some red slip on shoes. I gathered the clothing but noticed a bag left where the pile was.

I picked it up and threw it over my head so it lay across my chest. I shoved my old clothes in it and walked out the stall.

3rd person

Yami, Bakura, and Marik walked out of their stalls and the first thing they noticed were the dropped jaws of not only their respective other but all other guys in the restroom as well. Yami walked up to Yugi and tapped his jaw, "Better close your mouth before you catch flies Hikari." He told Yugi in humor.

Yugi snapped his jaw shut. "OH come on! Ryou, Malik! We are changing too. I feel left out!" he said as he blushed and grabbed a bag along with Ryou and Malik. They all headed to the family size stall to get changed. In the mean time the yamis shrugged and putzed with their new clothing while waiting. A few minutes later the hikaris came out.

This time Yami, Bakura, and Marik's jaws all dropped. Ryou had beige colored capris on with a long tunic like shirt. It was a light blue with a low droop in the neck showing off his collar bone. He had white hand warmers and sleek black shoes.

Yugi wore black capris that were made of jean material and had a zipper at the bottom of them that hugged he calf. He had a large sweater that had a wide collar the dipped off his shoulder showing black straps from a tank top underneath. He had new white tennis shoes.

Malik had tight black skinny jeans with zippers running throughout them. He had a long sleeveless shirt on that was a pale purple color. He had twin beige belts going across his hips and wrist cuffs the same color as his shirt on his wrists.

Everyone stared at the 6 men in the bathroom in awe. Once the yamis composed themselves they picked up the bags and nudged the hikaris out the door. Once outside the restroom everyone burst out laughing. It took five minutes to calm down and another few minutes to move after the giggles. After they began to move to the doors Ryou spoke up, "Hey guys! Why don't we put all the bags in the car and head back to the food court. I'm starving!"

Everyone agreed and after dropping the bags off in the car they were on their way back to the food court. Once they had their food ordered they found a table near a large window to the left corner of the court. A few minutes into eating Yugi thought he heard his name being called and looked around.

After seeing no one he turned back to the others, "Hey, I keep hearing someone call my name… can anyone else?" he asked.

"You too? I thought it was just me" Yami responded and everyone nodded.

Again Yugi heard his name being called but louder. Everyone was looking around until the spotted a tall brunette standing next to a jumping blonde waving over to Yugi's group. They finally realized Joey was calling over to Yugi. Since they were sitting in a curve Joey could only see Ryou, Malik, and Yugi. But when Yami leaned forward to see better he noticed Joey freeze and his eyes turn wide.

Yami chuckled and waved lightly to Joey. Joey in turn tugged on the brunette's sleeve who happened to be Seto. Seto then turned to face where Jeoy was pointing with a curious yet slightly mocking look. Seto as well only saw Yugi at first but then looked closer and he froze as well. Another tug from Joey and he snapped out of it. They both nodded at each other and left the line to walk over to where the group was.

Yugi got up from his seat and went to give Joey a hug. Joey looked slightly surprised but then her goofy grin returned and hugged Yugi back. They walked to the table. Seto sat down next to Joey and stiffened as they looked at Yami, Bakura, and Marik sitting across from them.

After a moment Bakura got aggravated, "GAH! This silence is driving me insane! Good to see you to Mr. I-eat-way-too-much-for-my-own-good and MR. stick-up-my-ass! Nice to know these years have made you all mutes." He said in an agitated voice.

"Kura! Give them a break, the last time they saw us you were evil, Marik was a lunatic, and Yami was inside Yugi's body! This is a lot for them!" Ryou chastised Bakura. Bakura grumble under his voice but stayed quiet.

"So…they are really here? To stay?" Joey asked

Yugi nodded. He filled Seto and Joey in on the past few days. They skipped over the being raped part and just said they were kidnapped and knocked out. Once he finished his voice was a bit hoarse and small tears were almost make their way down his cheeks but he held them in. Yami was now hugging his hikari tightly as were the other yamis with their lovers.

Joey had a shocked look on his face where as Seto had a disapproving frown, a sign that he really did care and felt sorry but wasn't showing it. They all took a moment to let everything sink in.

"So, what now?" Joey asked.

Everyone was quiet for a moment, "Now, I think we should head back to my mansion, figure out how we are going to integrate 3 new men in Japan that magically appeared here overnight." Seto said standing from his chair. Everyone stared but after a moment smiled and nodded their heads, they all knew this was Seto's way of saying he accepts them and is will to help.

They headed to the parking lot and headed to their cars and or limos and headed for Kaibi Mansion.
