Well... quiet some time has gone by hasn't it? Anyway, the little issue was only HALF resolved. -_- I mean honestly, if you guys knew what was happening you too would feel the way i do. But, I'm a person of few words. Therefore I use this as a manner of saying them. These are my stress relievers (also video games XD). OH! I almost forgot! I'd like to thank Becca-Loves-Yuge & The Queen of Water for their reviews. And as promised, here is your truck load of sweets! ^.^

Saki: Well, I think they have waited long enough.

Me: I know, I just thought that I had to say that before we got started.

Tadao: Well what are we waiting for?! Let's begin!

Me: Wow... he's coming out of his shell.

DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING!

Chapter 4

Anzu was on her way to Shooting Star corp. by car, when she noticed something strange. It's way too sunny for December. "Something weird is going on." She also noticed the people. They were being a little too friendly for her liking. She saw people greeting each other, helping each other, and… Anzu shook her head and tried to ignore all of it. She was at a red light now. As she was waiting, she noticed a couple crossing the street. She saw them holding hands acting without a care in the world. Anzu groaned and banged her head on the steering wheel. "Can they be any slower! Ugh… I'm just glad I have to defend my title tonight, so this is nothing I guess." thought Anzu. The light finally turned green and Anzu sighed in relief while finally driving to work. When she arrived, she was greeted as usual. She made her way into to her office. When she closed the door, she was met with cheeky looks from Tadao and Saki. Anzu shook her head and sat at her desk.

"So… how was the show?" asked Saki. Anzu groaned.

"You already asked me that."

"Yeah well, I didn't. So… how was it?" asked Tadao. Anzu rolled her eyes.

"Like I told Saki, it was fine. Now if you'll excuse me, I have work to do." Tadao and Saki nodded and left her office. But, before Saki left, she left a bag next to her desk. "Thank you Saki." thought Anzu. The doors closed and Anzu was alone again. Anzu took a quick glance at the paper work that needs to be done and she groaned in annoyance. She quickly got over it and began working.

The sun was shining, it reflected off the white snow on the ground which emphasized it's shine. Yugi was already up and about while Atem on the other hand… well, let's just say he's not a morning person. It was already 11:30 am and Atem still wasn't up. So, Yugi took it upon himself to get 'breakfast'. Yugi called room service and asked for a chocolate cake, brownies, four Hershey bars, and a mountain of m&m's (A/N O.o CAN I BE THERE?!). Yugi went into Atem's room and opened the curtains. Atem groaned and hid under the covers. Yugi giggled and climbed on the bed carrying a Hershey bar just for Atem. "Wakey wakey bro!" Atem grabbed a pillow and put it over his head. Yugi rolled his eyes. He then took the pillow and threw it to the wall. "I guess you don't want candy then." Atem's eyes shot open and he sat up in his bed.

"Just out of curiosity, uh… how many sweets did you get?" Yugi giggled and ran out of the room. "Uh-oh!" Atem ran into the living room (A/N Wow, they're suite must be awesome!) and found Yugi not eating but swallowing the 'food'. Atem face palmed. "Never again!" thought Atem.

"C'mon, hurry and eat before there's nothing left!" said Yugi with his mouth full of cake and brownies. Atem sighed and went to go brush his teeth. When he came back, he noticed the time. It was 12:15 pm. Atem sat down and had some cake.

It's now 2:45 and Atem heard a knock at the door. Atem went to open it.

"Hey Joey, what's up?" Atem let Joey in. Joey was carrying a bag.

"Nothing, I just thought you'd like to play a game." Atem raised an eyebrow (A/N Uh, did anyone else get a season zero vibe from that. Ah, game-i-no-chikanda XD!).

"What kind of game?" Joey opened the bag and took out a videogame. Atem gasped. "MODERN WARFARE 3! Hell yeah I wanna play! We gonna blow this shit up!" Atem and Joey high-fived.

"Das right! You and me buddy!" Atem and Joey ran to the TV to hook up the Xbox and put in the game. Atem and Joey were on the couch waiting for the main menu to come up. Yugi was running back and forth from sugar rush so Atem didn't need to worry about him seeing them play. "Ok, are we gonna play survival, story mode, or are we gonna shoot some ass online?" asked Joey. They looked at each other for a minute before they screamed,

"ONLINE!"

"Hey Joey, what's your gamer tag?"

"Mine's PuppyChow4275. What about you? Atem chuckled.

"Hehehe, mine's NYC'zFINEST2012!" Joey laughed as they entered a team deathmatch (A/N for those of you that don't play MW3, team deathmatch is where you are put into a game with others and when you die you get to respawn or come back in the game, the team that reaches the point limit wins. The point limit is reached depending on how many kills you get. The other team gets points for all the times you or someone else on your team has died.). Atem turned the corner using a machine gun (M4), "Joey, have my back, have my back!"

"Oh shit! I died, sorry bro looks like you're on your own." said Joey. Atem cursed under his breath. Atem took cover against a wall. He saw someone sniping his team and decided to do a little sniping of his own (A/N, not like the word snip, it's the word snipe). Joey was headed towards Atem's spot. "I'm coming!" Atem went wide eyed.

"No! Stay back, stay back! I'm using a sniper, you're gonna get…" Atem trailed off as Joey arrived and they both got shot. "…us both killed." Atem finished. He glared at Joey as he laughed nervously.

"Uh… why don't I take you two to 'The Squeeze' now?" asked Joey trying to save himself by changing the subject. Atem looked behind him and saw that Yugi was still on his sugar rush.

"Actually, I think I'm gonna call Tristan so his daughter and Yugi can have a play date."

"Yeah… good idea." Atem then went to call Tristan.

Joey and Atem had just dropped off Yugi. Yugi ran into the house still hopped up on sugar. Atem sweat dropped. "Drive, drive, drive!" whispered Atem. Joey did just that. Tristan yelled saying that they owe him.

Joey and Atem finally made it to the freeway. Atem sank in his seat from relaxation. "Phew… and I thought I would be having a headache right about now." Joey laughed.

"Yeah well, da place I told you 'bout is really relaxin' so yeah."

"I hope so, things have been stressful lately."

"WHAT?! YOU BEING STRESSED OUT?!" Atem chuckled.

"I am human you know. Even I can get tense."

"Huh… dats new." Atem rolled his eyes as he noticed where they were going.

Anzu was getting her stuff to go since she has decided to take a half-day at work. Anzu walked out of her office and approached Tadao. "I'm leaving early today. So make sure any calls for me are put on hold for tomorrow."

"Ok ma'am. Oh and uh… knock'em dead… Téa." Anzu froze where she stood. She slowly turned to him.

"W-what did you just say?" she asked horrified. Tadao did his signature half chuckle half giggle.

"Saki told me all about it. Don't worry, I won't tell a soul." Anzu sighed in relief.

"Well… alright then. I mean it's not like I have a choice or like it was my choice to have a big mouth driver." They both laughed and Anzu quickly covered her mouth. Tadao went wide eyed.

"Y-you… laughed." Anzu stiffened.

"And so what if I did?!" she snapped back.

"No it's just… " Anzu turned around so her back was facing him before he could finish.

"I'm going to be late." She then went to the elevator leaving Tadao all alone.

"Maybe I took things too far." thought Tadao. Anzu waited to reach the bottom. When she got there, she walked to her car. It was a 2013 accord sedan, it was a black color. Anzu grinned at her car. She is in possession of a car that most people haven't even heard of yet. She got in her car and drove off to her favorite spot. The place where she will be defending her title as champion. Anzu sighed and thought "Hmm… that feeling is back." Anzu then grinned as she parked in front of the place. "Maybe someone will finally give me a challenge." She then looked at the bag Saki had left for her. Anzu then moved to the back of her car to change. When she came out of her car she had on a blonde wig (A/N think of Mai's hair), contacts that made her eyes look like crimson, she was wearing black stockings, heels, a gray skirt, and she had on a white coat. She walked inside and everyone yelled.

"TEA!" She waved to everyone. The manager walked up to her and took her coat.

"So, how's the champ doing?" When he took off her coat, her white long sleeve shirt was revealed. This means she is in semi-happy, rude mode.

"I'm doing fine Dave. So any competition, or is it going to be a steal for me?" Dave chuckled (A/N I didn't know how to describe Dave so I'll let you guys just imagine him however you want).

"I'm not sure. We still have some spots available for the competition."

"Well alright then. I'll be at my usual table then." Dave nodded and she walked away to the table next to the bookcase at the corner of the place. She looked at the cup of apple juice on her table and she grinned. She grinned especially at the name it had on the side of the cup. It said "The Squeeze". "They should consider about changing their name." Anzu was about to take a sip when, out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone. She looked at the two people entering and she went wide eyed. "No," she whispered.

"So… what do you think?" asked Joey. Atem was in a state of awe.

"Wow… it's peaceful here." Everyone then turned and gasped. "Or at least it was." He had a few people come up to him and asked for his autograph and some pictures. It was only a few people though, so it didn't really bother him. "Hm… that wasn't nearly as bad as it normally is."

"Good." said Dave. They both turned to him.

"Um… hello?" said Atem. Dave held out his hand.

"Sorry, my name is Dave. I'm the manager here."

"Oh!" Atem then held out his hand to shake Dave's. "It's nice to meet you Dave. I'm-" Atem was cut off by Dave.

"Do you honestly think I don't know who you are?" Atem chuckled.

"Yeah, I guess that was pretty stupid of me. Oh this is my friend Joey." They shook hands.

"Nice to meet ya." said Joey.

"Likewise." He then turned to Atem.

"So… have you two heard of our monthly talent shows?" Atem and Joey looked at each other a bit confused.

"No, we haven't." Dave went wide eyed.

"WHAT?! You've never heard of our talent show?! Everyone has! Hm… well, every month we hold talent shows to let people express themselves. They can sing, dance, duets are allowed too, um… people have read poetry, people can do stand-up acts." Dave stopped himself and looked at Atem's reaction. "Let me rephrase that, people except you can do stand-up acts if you were to join the competition." Atem chuckled. "Anyway, so yeah now you get the point right?"

"Yeah, I think we got it." said Atem. "Are there anymore spots available?"

"Hm… let me check." Dave checked his clipboard. "You're in luck! There's one more spot. But before you join, I have to warn you." Atem and Joey raised an eyebrow.

"About…?" they both said.

"You see that lady over there." Dave pointed to Anzu disguised as Tea. They nodded as they watched 'Tea' drink her juice. "She's been our undefeated champion for almost two years." Atem and Joey went wide eyed.

"What's her act?" asked Atem.

"The same one she's been doing ever since she started. She sings, but she sings different songs. And you never get tired of hearing her voice either." Joey looked to Atem who was looking at 'Tea'.

"Hm… there's something familiar about her." Dave brought Atem out of his thoughts.

"So, are you going to sign up?"

"Uh… sure but, what should I do?" Joey gave Atem a cheeky smile. Atem went wide eyed. "No!"

"C'mon, it'll be cool if you did!" said Joey.

"Joey, you know how I feel about that." Dave was lost.

"Um… not to be rude but, what are you two talking about?" asked Dave. Joey faced Dave.

"Atem can dance his ass off! He knows how to jerk, dougie, shuffle, you name it!" (A/N Teach me how to dougie, teach me, teach me how to dougie. LOL). Atem looked away.

"Oh… well I'll put you on the list. And you'll go on second to last so you can decide on what you're going to do. It seems weird but the champ always goes last." said Dave. Atem and Joey nodded. Dave wrote Atem's name down and walked away. Atem looked over to who he believed to be Tea.

Anzu heard the entire conversation. She was very surprised by Atem's hidden talent. She then noticed that Atem was walking towards her. She froze; the only thing that came to her mind was to drink her juice so she did. Atem was now standing in front of her. "Um… may I help you?" said Anzu. She looked up at him with her crimson eyes. Atem went wide eyed. Her eyes completely threw him off and she could tell. She smirked.

"No, I just… I just thought you were someone else." Anzu chuckled. That laugh sounded familiar to Atem but her appearance threw him off again.

"I didn't think there were others with blonde hair and red eyes like me." Atem chuckled.

"So you're the champ around these parts?" he said with an old Wild West accent. She laughed but tried to hold it in. "Alright… have we met? I feel like I know you." Anzu froze.

"Uh… maybe we met somewhere but… I think I would remember someone with that hair." Atem chuckled. "Oh, you guys can sit if you want." Atem and Joey sat with her.

"Thanks." They both said. Someone then walked to their table. Anzu chuckled since she knew who it was.

"Well, the former champion has graced us with her presence." Atem and Joey looked at her with confused looks. The woman scoffed.

"Shut it Tea. No one wants to hear you." Atem went wide eyed. He was about to do something when 'Tea' stood up.

"Hm… yeah that makes sense even though I win every month with my voice." Atem might not have known what was going on, but he knew one thing…

"Shit just got real." thought Atem.

I love the last line for Atem! Well, you guys know the drill. Leave a review for a reward.

Saki: This time, Akai won't say what it is.

Tadao: And Akai made us promise not to say either.

Wow... I'm very forgetful. I was supposed to say this last chapter but i forgot. Check out my profile for any upcoming stories and what I'm working on and stuff like that. You can review, PM, whatever!
