What to do on a Saturday morning? Well, you could go to the movies, hang out with your friends, or just stay home and paint on a canvas. That was exactly what Yami was doing. Yami was in the living room painting near the open window to feel the summer breeze as he paints. Yami developed this hobby 2 months ago when he went with Yugi to get art supplies for a science project they needed to decorate. Since then, Yami started taking an interest in art and painted at least 5 or 6 different painting. He mostly likes drawing animals and such. Today, he was painting a certain cat that followed him yesterday. The gray tiger striped cat. He was bringing careful as he stroked a lime green color in the cats eye shape to make the eye texture look realistic. He painted it exactly the way he remembered how it stared at him. It's mysterious green eyes that could pierce through anything, like it did to him.

"Hey, Yami." Yugi walked into the room. "I'm gonna go to the store real quick. Will you be okay here alone?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine." Yami was mesmerized with his art, he started making textures for the gray fur.

"Okay, I won't be long." Yugi head for the door, but stopped mid way before he turned around. "Also Yami, please remember to clean up after you're done with that."

"Yeah, sure..." Yami was dabbing his brush in the paint when he said that. Yugi sweat dropped at Yami and walked out the door.

Few minutes later, Yami was adding the last few touches to the cat's face. When he finished, he put his brush in a cup of water and looked at his work. It looked realistic, that's for sure. Nothing looked out of proportion. It looked just right. Yami cleaned his hands with a wet towel and was about to clean up his mess. Until he heard a meow. Curious about where it came from, Yami looked out the window and looked around the ally. He didn't see any cats around the area, and he was about to close the window. But then, it happened. He heard the meow again. But this time, it came from above him. He looked up from above him and saw it. The same cat from yesterday was up on the roof of their house, just a few feet away. He gasped.

"Hey! How did you get up there?" He tried to lure the cat towards him by making hand motions and smacking sounds with his lips. The cat just lowered it's head and meowed. Yami didn't know what to do. He didn't want to just leave it there. He looked down and saw the ground was too far down for the cat to jump down. He then thought of something. It was foolish, but he was the only one around to help this cat.

Carefully, Yami stepped onto the window ceiling and slowly pushed himself up. He grabbed onto a roofs edge and pulled himself up to the narrow ledge. He balanced himself as he tried getting closer to the cat. When he couldn't get any closer he tried crouching down and brought his hand close to the cat. If it could just sniff his hand, it would be close enough for him to grab it.

"Yami!" Yami yelped and almost lost his balance. He turned and saw Yugi in the ally way with plastic bags filled with food in his hands."oh, Yugi. It's you."

"What are you doing up there?!" Yugi had a worried look on his face as he looked at how high Yami was off the ground and on the roof.

"I didn't mean to worry you, Yugi. It's just that... This cat-" Yami turned and was surprised when he didn't see the cat.

"Yami, I know you like drawing animals, but I'm sure the cat will figure out how to get down from there."

"Uh... yeah... you're right, Yugi... because it's not up her anymore." He started looking around for the tiny feline to see if it's still around.

"You see? Now please get back in the house before you fall from there!" Yugi started out of the ally and turned the corner to get to the house through the shop. Yami carefully watched his step and successfully made it back to the window in one piece. He looked around one last time and closed the window. He heard Yugi come in put the bags down. Pause."Yami, I thought you were going to clean this up after you finished?!" Yami turned and saw Yugi pointed at all his art supplies.

"Oh, sorry. I was going to, but the cats meowing got my attention." Yami rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. Yugi sighed but smiled.

"Well hurry and clean it up so you could help me put this stuff away before we leave." Yami had moved his painting out of the way and paused when he heard Yugi said,"leave."

"leave?" Yugi nodded.

"Yup! Tea called me earlier and said she got a big check from working at burger world and she invited me, you, and the other hikari's and yami's to go shopping with her." Yami had gathered up all the dirty rags he used while he listened.

"Really? That real generous of her"

"Yeah. Now let's hurry up so we could leave." Yami had thew away the rags and started dumping the water he used and rinsed his brushes, while Yugi started putting the groceries away. After the art supplies and groceries were put away, Yugi and Yami headed out to the mall. There, they met Ryou and Bakura first, and then a little later Tea came into the scene.

"Hey guys! Glad you could make it!" The said brunette had a cheerful smile on her face as she walked up to the group of boys.

"Thanks for inviting us Tea!" Ryou thanked.

"No problem, Ryou!" Tea looked around and frowned a bit. "Uh, where's Malik and Marik?"

"They're coming..." Bakura said in a tone that made him sound like he had better things to do. "Malik said that he's trying to get Marik to help finish a project they're suppose to do."

"And we just finished!" They all turned to the new voice and saw Malik and Marik barely arriving. "Sprry were late."

"It's alright." Tea said then turned to look at every one. "Alright guy's, I got a big check today, so spend as much as you want." Tea handed each of them a twenty dollar bill. "Meet me back here when you're done. they all nodded and went their seperate ways for now. Tea went to a girly store while Yugi and Yami checked out the leather store, Bakura drags Ryou to hot topic, and Malik and Marik look at jewlery. By the time everyone finished, all but Tea had met back at the spot around 8pm.

"So what did you get guys?" Yugi asked.

"oh, look at this!" Ryou excitingly reached into one of the bags he was holding and put the item on Bakura's head. Yami and Marik bursted out laughing when they saw The fake back cat ears on Bakura's head.

"HA HA HA! If the ears were white, then they would definitely look real! HA HA!" Marik laughed out loud.

"HA HA! I think I might be calling him Mittens!" Yami laughed out as well.

"Don't you bloody tart calling me freaking Mittens!" Bakura shouts at them as the laughing dies down to chuckles.

"Ha ha... okay... okay... we won't call you Mittens..." Yami said before him and Marik stopped laughing... he smirks. "We'll call you fluffy." They bursted out laughing again and this time, they were holding their stomachs and the hikari's joined in the laughter. Bakura glared daggers at Yami and hated being called fluffy more than mittens.

"Hey! What everybody laughing at?" Tea had walked up to the group and saw that Yami and Marik were nearly lieing down on the floor. She then saw Bakura and giggled. "Awww, Bakura! You look cute with those on!" She awed and started feeling the fake fur on them. You could now see a vein popping out on Bakura's head and he ripped the ears off his head.

"Alright! Everyone shut the hell up already!"

"ha ha... okay... okay Bakura. But you have to admit, it is kind of funny." Malik said as everyone nodded.

"Whatever..." Everyone was about to leave before Tea stopped them.

"Hang on a sec guys." She looked at Yami and smiled. "I actually got a leather outfit for you that you might like!"

"For me?" Yami pondered.

"Mmm hmm! Come with me!" She grabbed Yami's wrist and dragged him off to some where. Curious at what Tea got for Yami, the hikari's and other Yami's followed after them.


"Okay guys!" Tea had came out of the dressing room and stood infront of the boys who were seated in the waiting area. "The outfit I found for Yami looked awesome when I saw it! So I hope you like it! Yami you can come out now!" She looked over to the dressing room curtain Yami was behind, but was confused when he didn't come out. "Uh, Yami... I said you could come out!"

"Uh are you absolutely sure this is how it's suppose to look?" Yami asked from behind the curtain. Sounding a bit uncomfortable. Tea went over and looked behind the curtain.

"Yes, Yami. That's exactly how it's suppose to look like. Now can you please come out and show everyone?" She pleaded.

"um...100% ... sure?" Tea frowned a bit.

"Oh, now you're just making excuses. Come out already!" She grabbed onto Yami's wrists and tried pulling him out.

"N-No wait! Tea!" Yami protested as he tried his best to stay inside the dressing room. The hikari's and Yami's watching the scene sweat dropped and saw only part of what Yami was wearing when Tea almost got him out the dressing room. Finally, Bakura Groaned in irritation.

"Pharaoh! Just show us the damn outfit already so we could go home!" Silence meet the room. Tea crossed her arms at Yami and everyone could hear him sigh.

"a-alright... fine" Tea moved out of the way and smiled at him. They see the curtain slowly start to move to the side until it was completely out of the way, revealing Yami in the outfit Tea bought him. Soon after the yami's saw him, it was now Bakura's turn to laugh with Marik at the ridiculous outfit Yami was wearing.

Sure, it was a leather outfit. That's Yami style. But this was different. It was a made up of entire black leather. the tiny leather jacket he had on hugged around his chest and it showed off his mid section. It had no sleeves and the jacket collar near his neck was folded down neatly. It was zipped up nearly half way to show he wasn't wearing a shirt underneath and he still wore the same buckle styled choker around his neck. He had leather pants that are ripped for design hugging around his thighs and legs. Well, they couldn't exactly see his legs because of the knee high boots covering them. they had a lot of buckles on them for design and they had a small heel on them took make Yami look a little taller. On his upper arms were matching black armbands and he wore black elbow length gloves that kind look like cones from his wrists going up. around his wrists were buckle designs that are part of the gloves that also hug around his palms and leaving his fingers and thumbs exposed.

As Bakura and Marik were laughing, Yami's expression easily showed that he was uncomfortable. It was unnoticed by Tea for that she was too busy admiring the outfit on Yami which seemed to fit him perfectely. The hikari's were just looking and blushing abit. The outfit was a little revealing, and it made Yami look a little bit feminine. Maybe that's why Bakura and Marik were laughing. But it made Yami look like the only word they could think of, but would never say: Slutty.

"Uh... Tea. Are you sure you like the way how it looks on Yami?" Yugi nervously asked.

"Of course I do! In all honesty, I thought it was just going to look cute on him. But now that I see him actually wearing it," she got close to Yami and traced her finger on his left cheek down to his chin as she narrowed her eyes. "He looks more sexy than cute." You could actually see the red blush on Yami's face when Tea looked at him like that. She then frowned a bit when she looked at his face. "hmm, something still seems to be missing though..." She trailed off.

"Really!?" Yami's back away a bit."Isn't any of the stuff i'm wearing enough!?" Bakura heard the conversation through his laughing and got up.

"I think I know what I could add." He grabbed one of Ryou's bags and walked up to the red faced Yami. He pulled an item out of the bag and put's it on Yami's head then steps back. Tea squealed and held her cheeks when she saw the black cat ears from before was now on Yami's head. "Now-how it's complete!" Bakura laughed in between his sentence and continued smirking at Yami. "Consider this as pay back for calling me fluffy, pharaoh." He laughed sat back down next to Marik who was wiping tears from his eye from laughing do much. Okay maybe Yami did deserve that last part, put this is embarrassing enough. He quickly ran back into the dressing room completely red after Tea took a picture with her phone and quickly started dressing back into his everyday clothes.


When Yugi and Yami returned home, Yami depressingly took the leather outfit that was in a big box and tried stuffing it in the back of the closet. He was really upset when Tea told him she threw away the receipt for the outfit, so there was no way of returning it. Now he was stuck with it and there he is trying to put it in the back of the closet.

"Yami," Yugi was watching Yami trying to fit the box in the closet when they first got home and was starting to wonder. "You're not really planning to wear that outfit one day, are you?" Yami shut the closet door and leaned on it after he finally fitted the box in there. He sighed and looked up at Yugi.

"Yugi, I know you saw my face when I first put that suit on. There is no way, I am ever putting that leather suit back on again. When I saw myself wearing it in the mirror, it looked like I was a whole different person." He walked over to the bags and pulled out a frame. He walked over to the painting he did and started putting the frame on his painting. Yugi was about to put the stuff he brought away, but then suddenly remembered something.

"Oh yeah! Yami, did you finish the art project for Ms. Yura's art class?" Yami snapped his head up and stopped framming his painting.

"Oh shit, I forgot all about that!"

"Have you even started on it?!"

"Not at all, I was too busy with other classes, and my mind was wandering off about my fortune from yesterday..." Yami held his head frustratingly. How could he slip up like that and forget about his art project. It's his favorite hobby for crying out loud!

"Yami! You know how strict Ms. Yura is! There's no school tomorrow and she expects everyone of her students to turn in the assignment on Sunday!

"Can she even do that!?" Yugi shrugged his shoulders unknowingly and he thought for moment. He soon got up and started setting up his art supplies in his usual spot near the window in the living room. "Hurry and get me a canvas, Yugi."

"You're going to work on it now?!" Yugi asked disbelievingly. "It's around 10 at night right now, Yami! It's already too late to start working on it! Can't you just turn in one of your old paintings?" Yami quickly walked past Yugi to get to the kitchen, he took out a plastic cup, filled it with water and grabbed a few paper towels.

"The theme of this art assignment is about nature, Yugi. All the old painting i've done are only paintings of animals like cats, dogs, birds, gerbils, tigers, and such. I have to paint a picture that represents nature, and I have to include a waterfall, at least 4 trees, a river, and as many different kinds of flowers that pop into my head. Now please, Yugi, get me a canvas. You know how long it takes me to work on one painting. I'm going to be up all night working on it to not fail this assignment." Yugi was surprised at Yami's determination. Before, Yami was a spirit who was an ex-pharoah. He was questionable about his past and about the modern world. He was even an expert duelist. Now, he's not a spirit. he's now going to school and he's worrying over failing his classes. He guessed Yami didn't even realized he's changed a bit. Yugi nodded and quickly came back with a large canvas and a piece of paper. Yami thanked him and started the rough draft on the piece of paper. Trying to come up with ideas to see what he'll draw on the canvas first before painting it.

"Well, Yami, i'm going to go take a shower and get ready for bed. I hope you'll feel alright in the morning." Yami nodded with a quick "Mmm hmm". Yugi was about to go upstairs, but then he stopped and remembered something again. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot! Grandpa should be coming home tonight, so if you see him, tell him I said hi and welcome home."

"Alright, Yugi." Yami quickly said again as he erased an error on his rough draft. Yugi smiled a bit at Yami and walked up the stairs to take a shower and get ready for bed.


Yami felt tired as he yawned for the twentieth time. He covered his mouth again as another big yawn escaped from him. When the yawn finished, he almost fell asleep again. But quickly, he shook his head to stay awake and continued with his painting. It's now 3 in the morning and how long had Yami been up? 6 hours! 19 hours of being awake for the day, plus 6 more extra hours, makes it 25 hours without resting. Yami wasn't nearly done with his painting. He finished making the sketches on the canvas, yet he still need 3/4 of a quarter left to finish painting. Yami will admit, he's a slow artist. But every time he finishes a piece people look at his talent in awe. For every piece he finishes, people look at it like a professional did it. He even one first place in the school art fair. A blue ribbon for talent, a medal for artists eye, (A/N: if that even exists...) and a gold trophy as the grand prize. the when people put Yami and Yugi together for comparison, they call Yugi the gamer twin, and Yami the artist twin. Everyone still thinks they're distant twins, so that would explain the 'twin' part in name.

While Yami was painting, he suddenly heard the door click. He looked towards it and saw Solomon walk in. When Solomon saw Yami, he looked puzzled.

"Yami, what are you doing up so late? You should be in bed." He lightly lectured and walked over to him.

"Sorry, grandpa, but I kind of slipped up and need to finished this art project before tomorrow." Yami explained.

"Why so early? There's no school tomorrow."

"I know, but our teacher is strict and she expects all of her students to be perfect and turn in all assignments on time. Even if it's on a Sunday." Solomon looked at the painting and frowned.

"You don't look nearly as done, and I also know how long it takes for you to finish one painting. Are you still going to be up working on it all night?" Yami nodded and started working on his painting again. "Alright, let me get you some water to help you stay awake." Solomon went to the kitchen and came back with a cup of water. Yami thanked the old man and gulped some of the cold substance down his throat. It indeed woke him up a bit and started mixing paints get a certain color. "You take a break when you need to. Alright, Yami?" Yami nodded. "Alright. Goodnight now Yami." Solomon started for the stairs.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot." Yami stopped him before he went any further. "Yugi said hi and welcome home." He smiled at the old man, in which he smiled back.

"It feels refreshing to be back, Yami. Goodnight now."

"Goodnight." Solomon went up stairs and Yami sighed.

A meow was heard. Yami blinked, and he looked at the window next to him and saw his feline friend. It was just sitting right outside the window as it meowed again. Yami felt curious whenever he saw that gray cat. Slowly he opened the window slightly and the cat squeezed itself in. It purred a relaxing pur when it walked in and sat on Yami's lap. Yami petted his furry friend from head to tail.

"Why do you keep following me? There something I have that you're after?" Yami chuckled a bit as the cat sways it's tail back and forth. He then started to feel his eyes get heavy. Almost falling asleep again, he quickly shook his head again and patted his face or a bit. He even drank more of the water Solomon gave him. Now he was awake again.

Now it was around 3:45 in the morning. Yami concentrated as much as possible on his painting which was now half done. However, he was struggling to stay awake. He needed to finish this! He looked down at the cat in his lap and saw assumed it was asleep. His thoughts had started to become cloudy now. His eyes started dropping the more he looked at the cat. Solomon did say to take a rest if he needed one, so... he'll just shut his eyes for a bit... and then... he'll get back to work...

Once Yami shut his eyes for a bit, they didn't open back up again. He ended up falling into a deep sleep while sitting up.
