Giggling came from up the stairs and it was followed by footsteps and someone running down the stairs. Tea and Tristan were dueling in the middle of the living room as Mokuba watched, while Yami tried to doze on the couch. Seto, Yugi and Mai had Joey in the kitchen and were apparently making supper.
“Seto Kaiba you idiot! You don’t put that much pepper in it!” Mai screeched.
“It adds to it!”
Yami wasn’t so sure about eating tonight.
Malik and Marik were quietly (for once) playing on the floor. Apparently they’d found one of Yugi’s puzzles and were both trying to put it together, working (surprisingly) well together.
At least, this is what everyone had been doing before the stampede down the stairs. A Chibi Ryou and Chibi Yami Bakura rushed into the room to find a hiding spot as Duke followed them, ‘trying’ to catch them. “I almost had you Bakura!” He said as said chibi giggled quietly, almost as if afraid to make a sound, but not being able to help it. The white-haired fiend climbed up onto the couch and jumped on Yami, wrapping his tiny arms around the pharaoh’s neck.
“’Ami’ll pwotect me!” He declared as he felt Yami move.
“Are you sure about that?” The pharaoh asked as he began to tickle the tomb robber. Yami Bakura began to squeal with delight as he wiggled and squirmed to try to get out of Yami’s grasp.
A giggle caught Duke’s attention and he spotted Ryou hiding behind Marik and Malik. “Don’t think you’ll get off so easily.” Duke threatened as he stalked over to the three boys. As the shadow passed over their puzzle the twin Egyptians looked up then looked at each other.
“Uh oh.” Malik said as they both quickly moved away, leaving Ryou out in the open. Duke grabbed him and flopped down on the couch behind the boys, then proceeded to tickle the chibi.
Malik and Marik both giggled as Ryou tried to get away, but couldn’t because he was laughing so much.
“What’s going on in here?” Mai wondered as she leaned against the doorframe. Seeing their chance to escape, both Ryou and Yami Bakura climbed down from their torturers. Ryou grabbed Malik’s hand as Yami Bakura grabbed Marik’s and the four chibis raced into the kitchen, Ryou and Malik ‘winning’ as they reached the table first. “Well, I came in here to tell you guys that supper’s ready.” She said then went back into the kitchen.
“Food!” Malik cried happily as everyone gathered in the living room. It was decided that everyone would stay for supper since it was Friday. Of course this proved to be a slight problem considering there weren’t many chairs. This problem was solved soon as Yami picked up Yami Bakura and sat down in one of the chairs, keeping the chibi in his lap.
Duke picked up Ryou as Mai picked up Marik. Seto already had Joey so Tristan picked up Malik.
Supper was eaten without incident, though Tristan was finding less food on his plate and more on Malik’s…
The ‘adults’ (well, the 5000 year old pharaoh spirit, the CEO that looks about 20 but is apparently 15, the chick who has GOT to be at least seventeen, the guy with the really weird hair who’s obsessed with Dice, Tristan and Tea.) planned about what they could do tomorrow, seeing as it was Saturday and someone new would be a chibi. (Hmm...forgot about Yugi, he was there too, he’s too short to be classified as an ‘adult’ though.)
Seto didn’t like that idea and he clutched Joey to him protectively.
Yugi saw this and smiled gently. “Bakura was like that when Ryou was first a chibi too, you’ll get over it Seto, and then you’ll have this time to remember back on.” He said.
“Can’t we clone him?” Seto asked, mostly to himself, but everyone heard it.
“No!” They all shouted at the same time, startling all the chibis and Seto.
Tristan coughed, “Um, one Joey is enough thanks.”
With that, everyone agreed. (Well, all but Seto, but he doesn’t count.)
Yugi remembered something and looked at Yami Bakura who was busy eating mashed potatoes. “Hey Bakura, how about you help me make cookies tonight.” Yugi said, getting everybody’s attention.
Yami Bakura’s big eyes got even bigger, “Weawwy?” He wondered hopefully, as if Yugi would change his mind and disappoint the chibi.
“Really, I promised you didn’t I?” Yugi nodded then whispered, “We’ll even get Ryou to distract Yami so he can’t make a mess!” He winked, causing the chibi in Yami’s lap to giggle.
“Otay!” Yami Bakura nodded excitedly.
After supper while Yugi and Yami Bakura made cookies, just the two of them, Yami realized that Ryou and Marik should really have a bath. Who knew what had been in that fountain after all.
“Do I hafta?” Ryou muttered, his nose stuffed up, as he was carried into the bathroom. The water had already been drawn and Yami was already helping Marik with his shirt.
“Yes you have to.” Yami said as Duke set the child on the floor. “Can you help him?” Yami wondered to the Dungeon Dice Monster creator, who nodded and helped Ryou out of his clothes. Well, he tried to anyway.
“I don’t need hewp! I can do it mysewf!” Ryou sniffed and stripped out of his clothes as they had seen him do many times before as a chibi. Yami placed Marik into the warm water. Duke picked up the other chibi and gently placed him down in the water too.
Together the two washed down the chibis until they were squeaky-clean. After that they let the two play in the water for a little while. While the sweet little innocent children were playing Marik got a glint in his eye. He glanced over at Ryou to see the same look. At the same time both chibis grinned and giggled under their breath.
While Duke and Yami were busy talking right beside them, Marik grabbed the portable showerhead and pointed it at the two unsuspecting boys. With that Ryou turned on the cold water tap to full blast.

“Day smeww good!” Yami Bakura beamed as he stared into the lighted oven at the baking cookies.
“They do, don’t they.” Yugi smiled as he noticed Malik come into the kitchen. The small chibi, who had been left to play alone for a little while, made his way over to Yami Bakura and looked into the oven as well.
He was about to ask something but two screams stopped him.
“What the hell was that?” Mai wondered as Yugi rushed into the living room, followed by the two chibis.
“It came from upstairs.” Tristan said and everyone proceeded up the stairs to see what had happened.
In the bathroom they found the floor with a sheet of water covering every inch. Sitting beside the tub were Yami and Duke who were soaking wet. In the tub, still holding the showerhead, Marik giggled hysterically as Ryou tried to stay afloat and laugh at the same time; so far he wasn’t doing a very good job of it.
Yami noticed the others and through clenched teeth he muttered, “Yugi, get Marik and Ryou out of here before I decide to drown them!” He growled. Together, Mai and Yugi slipped into the room and plucked the no longer laughing chibis out of the water.
“Youw fauwt!” Marik pointed to Ryou.
“Ith not!” Ryou growled back.
“Ith too!”
“Not!”
“Too!”
“Not!”
“Too!”
“Not!”
“Too!”
“Not!”
“Too!”
“Not!”
“Too!”
Ryou stopped, “Why awe we fightin’?” He wondered having completely forgotten.
Marik stopped too. “No wememba. Pay wit Mawik and Batuwa?” He suggested and Ryou nodded in agreement.
Mai glanced at Yugi as Yugi glanced at her. They both shrugged and took them to Yugi’s room to dry off and dress.
