Setting: Its spooking time! The gang is getting together to go out prowling for tricks and treats, and then heading to their favorite club for the Halloween party!

<Ari and Setsuna> *are hanging out in the living room of Seto's house, where they're waiting for Seto and Marik to come downstairs after getting ready*
<Ari> *is collapsed on the couch, dressed up as a Goth vampire chick, wearing a tight green leather halter, big baggy black jeans with a green skull embroidered on the back of the left pant leg, and black sneakers* *has dark black and dark green makeup on, and black lipstick, as well as a spiky collar and spiky cuffs*
<Setsuna> Ari, does this look right? *turns around from a small mirror on the wall for approval of her costume* *she's wearing a blood red snakeskin halter and jet black pants, a long, blood red trench coat, black boots, and her hair is mussed to look wild* *has black and gold makeup on, blood red lipstick, and a choker with an ankh pendant on it, as well as a matching bracelet*
<Ari> *gives her the thumbs up* It looks great! ^=^'
<Setsuna> *smiles* Ooh, this is gonna be so fun! I just wish those boys would hurry up... =_='
<Ari> Yeah... *cough* And they always complain about US taking forever.
*Up in the room*
<Marik> The girls are going to freak when they see this!
<Seto> Really? How's it look?
<Marik> *snickers to himself, a bit of his "bad" side showing through* "Sexy"... though not to MY preference. Setsuna's going to attack you when she sees you though!
<Seto> *raises an eyebrow* You sure you're not gay anymore?
<Marik> =_=' Uh... yeah. *finishes fooling with Seto's hair* *steps back and examines his "work"*
<Seto> So... is it okay?!
<Marik> *smirks, then grabs a mirror off a shelf* See for yourself!
*Meanwhile*
<Setsuna> Do you think Seto will like this? He wouldn't tell me what he's wearing...
<Ari> *is about to answer but is cut off by a vary loud shout that sounds distinctly like Seto's* *blink*
<Seto> *from upstairs, loud enough that the girls can hear* What did you do?! I look like I was just fried with an electric chair!!
<Marik> *also loud* That's the idea!! Helloooo... Halloween?!
<Ari> *looks at Setsuna* *snort*
<Setsuna> *heads for the stairs* I can't wait anymore... I've got to see what's going on... *runs up the stairs and barges into the room the boys are in*
<Seto> *is about to pummel Marik when Setsuna comes in* O_O'''
<Marik> Aaaahhh.... *looks at Setsuna oddly* You'd better be glad we're dressed already. =_='
<Seto> @_2' *punches Marik in the arm*
<Setsuna> *is staring at Seto's hair, speechless* Uhm... *bursts into laughter* *shouts down the stairs* Ari! Get up here! Look at what your boyfriend did to Seto! *laughs more*
<Seto> =_=' Oh no you don't! *runs to the door to slam it shut, but Ari's already gotten up the stairs* @_o'
<Ari> *stares, then looks at Marik, who is smiling evilly and shrugging* *starts to laugh*
<Seto> *slumps* =_=' We're sorry, you lose the game. Your wild amusement isn't the answer we wanted. Goodbye. *starts to walk past the girls into the hallway*
<Setsuna> Hold on you, *grabs his arm, suppressing her laughter into a big smile* It looks good. I laughed, I didn't say it looked bad *winks at him*
<Seto> ^=^' Well... I guess it's okay...
<Ari> *eyes Marik, who's wearing a purple sleeveless shirt and black jeans, his hair spiked up with gel to look like his evil side* You look scary.
<Marik> That's the idea... *walks up to her, kissing her lightly* Not too scary I hope. *smiles*
<Ari> Nah... *smiles back* So, do I look alright?!
<Marik> *looks her up and down* I could bite you myself...
<Setsuna> *raises an eyebrow* We're the vampires, you can't bite us.
<Ari> *snicker* That's right. We're doing the biting tonight, not you.
<Seto> *mumbles "bite me" and is rewarded with a sly look from Setsuna*
<Ari> Aaaanyways... what is Mokuba doing while we're out?
<Marik> *snorts*
<Seto> *smirks* He's got a girlfriend coming over to watch monster movies with...
<Mokuba> *happened to be walking by* I heard that!!!
<Girls> *laugh*
<Seto> *peeks out of the room* No making out, Moki... I don't want to come home to a half-drunken brother either.
<Mokuba> *turns around, blushing his head off* I'm not going to do THAT, Seto!!!
<Marik> *laughs his head off*
<Setsuna> *goes over to Mokuba* Don't worry about your brother, you can kiss her or hug her or something when the movie gets really scary ^_-
<Mokuba> *blink* Riiight....
<Setsuna> She'll go crazy if you do *winks*
<Mokuba> *blushes, walking off*
<Seto> *sigh* You're filling my brother's head with horrible things...
<Setsuna> Horrible things? So then you do horrible things all the time, right?
<Ari> *snort*
<Seto> *bites his tongue* Well...
<Marik> *puts a hand on Seto's shoulder* Nah, he's the big bad CEO... he can do whatever the heck he wants to.
<Seto> =_=' *cough* Errr...
<Setsuna> *snickers* So, are we all ready? Bakura's meeting us out near my house, so we should probably head there first.
<Marik> Oh... yay. *rolls eyes*
<Ari> *punches him lightly in the arm* Hey...
<Setsuna> *raises an eyebrow* Defensive of him? I thought you despised him.
<Marik> *is giving her the same look*
<Ari> Well... Bakura's alright. Ryou's still a stuck-up snot, though.
<Seto> *shakes his head* Come on, let's go.
<All> *walk downstairs and double check to see that Mokuba's going to be alright, then walk out the door*
<Setsuna> *starts walking towards her house*
<Marik> *whines* Do we REALLY have to go with Bakura? If Ryou comes out the night is shot.
<Setsuna> If Ryou comes out it'll be a miracle, and I'll just kill him if he does.
<Seto> O_o Why would it be a miracle?
<Ari> Because he's still so upset.
<Marik> Yea, but its spooks' night. Ryou can't resist.
<Ari> =_=' THAT'S true. He's prolly going to be chasing us girls around all night asking for a "bite to eat".
<Setsuna> *snort* Hey, like I said: We're the vamps tonight. No one bites but us.
<Ryou> *suddenly walking out from behind a tree just ahead of them* I'm a vamp too.
<Everyone> *nearly jump out of their skin*
<Seto> RYOU!!! WTF???
<Setsuna> *blinks* You said you were gonna meet us at my house, why are you so far over here?
<Ryou> Well I figured you'd all be at Seto's so I decided to make my way this way... I guess you didn't see me behind that tree...
<Ari> *is holding a hand to her heart* Geez... I think you just took five years off of my life! *glares* You did that on purpose!
<Marik> *glares at Ryou* Soo... decided to show up? The hikari's not coming out tonight, eh?
<Ryou> *sneers* Yes. You have a problem with that?
<Setsuna> *glares* both of you stop before you even get going. This is supposed to be fun, not a macho-man slug out. Come on. *starts heading for the first house*
<Ari> *sigh* *follows Setsuna*
<Marik> *waves a hand* After you... ladies first.
<Ryou> *glares* Go ahead... I'm not stopping you!
<Seto> *rolls his eyes* *pushes them both, so they both take a step forward at once*
<Setsuna> *stopped in front of a street light* Hey, look at this. *points at a flyer*
<Ari> Hey, a horse show!
<Seto> What's so great about horses?
<Setsuna> This is a competition. Look, there's going to be all kinds of horses!
<Marik> When is it?
<Seto> *reading* Two days from now.
<Ryou> *reminiscing* Horses are very interesting creatures…
<Ari> Why don't we all go? It'll be fun!
<Setsuna> Yea, we can invite Yugi, Jou, and Mai too.
<Everyone> *agree and head on*
*Everyone ends up getting along for the most part, and it finally hits midnight, time for the party at Club 666!*
<Ari> *comes up behind Marik and slips her hands around his waist* Ready to dance?! *winks*
<Marik> *smiles* Sure... *drags her out into the dance floor, which is covered in a thick fog*
<Ryou> *sneers at them*
<Setsuna> *looks at him and isn't sure if he's mad at Marik or Ari* Ryou, you should go mingle with some of the girls. Maybe they'll think your accent is hot.
<Ryou> *glares* Its none of your business! *stalks off into the fog* *leans against a wall, watching Marik dancing with Ari* *glowers*
<Ari> *notices him, but looks away, huffing*
<Marik> What is it? *leans down, kissing her forehead*
<Ari> *smiles* Never mind... *leans into his chest, resting her head in the crook of his neck*
<Ryou> *clenches his fists* That damned Egyptian... first he uses me, and now he ends up with the girl... *closes his eyes* *sigh* And that dream last night has me all confused... *looks over again*
<Marik> *as though knowing his thoughts, looks up at Ryou, giving him a "haha, she's mine, not yours" smirk*
<Ryou> *glares back * *mutters* Bloody hell... I hate him.
<Setsuna> *has been looking back and forth between Ryou and Marik* *sigh* Idiots... *turns to Seto and smiles* *grabs Seto's hand* Come on... I want to dance...
<Seto> *smiles* Ok... But you can't really get too close... *is wearing spikes all over to go with the spiky hairdo*
<Setsuna> Oh, you're so dangerous... *laughs*
<Seto> *wraps his arms around her, letting the spikes on his bracelets graze her skin* Yea, I am.
<Setsuna> *gasps slightly* *smirks* So, if I kiss you, there's a price to pay? *eyes the collar he's wearing, with extra large spikes on it*
<Seto> *smirks* I guess you could say that. Are you willing to pay?
<Setsuna> *grins, then kisses him, wincing a bit from the spikes digging into her neck slightly*
<Seto> *licks her lips slightly as she pulls away* Mmmm... you taste good tonight.
<Setsuna> *smirks* I have yet to taste you... maybe I should use my vampire's teeth?
<Seto> *smirks* Maybe you should save that for later. *winks*
*meanwhile*
<Ari> *is suddenly kissed by Marik*
<Ryou> *fumes, fighting the urge to punch Marik's lights out* Rrr... *storms off*
<Marik> *smiles* Ari, I'll be right back... *goes off to find Ryou*
<Ari> *blinks* What...? *puts her hands on her hips* Okay, something's up. *follows Marik, but loses him in the crowd and the fog* Now where…?
<Ryou> *is suddenly in front of her, grabbing her arms* Let me talk to Kibira!
<Ari> *gasps, pulling away* Let go!
<Ryou> *more forcefully* LET. ME. TALK. TO KIBIRA! *digs his nails into her skin*
<Ari> *eyes tear up* Ow!! Ryou...
<Ryou> *glares down at her, tightening his grip more*
<Ari> *is about to yell for Marik when Kibira forces her way through*
<Kibira> *jerks away from him, rubbing her arm* What do you want? *glares*
<Ryou> *bites his tongue* I... uh... had something to ask you.
<Kibira> *glares* *coldly* Well, you have my attention. What is it?
<Ryou> I... *thinks about the dream he had, wondering how to tell her about it* *suddenly hears Marik calling for Ari* Ahh... *quickly but seriously* I just wanted to remind you of my offer. I'm still willing to teach you, if you want to learn how to harness the powers of your Seidan.
<Marik> *only sees Ryou* There you are. Enjoying the festivities? See any guys you like?
<Ryou> *turns around furiously, being sure that Marik still doesn't see Kibira* Shut up! I should spill your blood on the floor for what you did to me!
<Marik> *sneers* Yeah? Well, you didn't take my apology, so I guess I can be as mean to you as I want. And what are you going to do about it? I saw your jealous looks earlier...
<Kibira> *backs off slowly, listening to every word*
<Ryou> Jealous? Why the hell would I be jealous of a snake like you?! For all I know, you're just using Ari as well, and she'll dump you on your ass where you belong!
<Marik> *growls* I'd watch it if I were you... unlike you, I actually care about her! If you think you're getting her away from me, you've got another thing coming!
<Ryou> I won't bother getting her away from you. She'll see what you are on her own power. All you do is use people, and no amount of Setsuna's magic will change that. You're cruel and evil, and everyone, including Ari, will see that soon enough! *stalks off, knowing what he said will definitely leave an impression*
<Marik> *stares after him, glowering* *mutters* I am not "cruel and evil"... you're the one who manipulates people, Ryou.
<Kibira> *thinks about what she'd just heard* What did he mean, "cruel"… and "manipulative"? *quickly turns into Ari* *coughs, walking up to Marik, oblivious to what has just happened* Marik, I was wondering where you went!
<Marik> *brightens* Oh, I just went to ask the DJ something.
<Setsuna> *stumbles into them* Oh here you are! Come on, we've got to get going; its almost 2 AM!
<Seto> *is right behind Setsuna* *wipes a stray bang from his forehead* Yeah... and if I dance a minute longer, I think I'll pass out!
<Setsuna> *smirks* Oh shush, you!
<Ari> *giggles* lets go see if Mokuba did anything ^-^
<Seto> @_2' Oh man! I forgot!! Come on, let's get going!! *drags Setsuna out*
<Marik> *laughs, grabbing Ari's hand and pulling her after him* I can't miss this!
<Ari> *rolls her eyes* *sarcastically*Yeah… fun…
<Ryou> *watches as Marik and Ari walk out with the others* *hopes that Kibira will remember his proposition* *sigh* *follows the others outside*
<Seto> *is running* Oh man, I hope Mokuba's not doing anything stupid!
<Setsuna> *is walking, but still keeping up* Seto, I'm sure he's fine *snorts*
<Ari> *laughs* Yeah, he's responsible... unlike his older brother... *cough*
<Ryou> *coming up behind Ari and Marik* He certainly has more brains than his older brother...
<Seto> *stops, turns around, and glares* I'm not deaf.
<Setsuna> No, but he is right ^_~ *drags him away before they start fighting* *in a few minutes*
<Seto> *comes up to the front door* Well, I hope things are okay, the lights aren't on... *goes to open the door, but the front door's locked* @_2' Oh damn... I don't have my keys!!
<Setsuna> *knocks on the door* Mokuba!
<Marik> Like that's going to work. He's probably too busy to hear it...
<Seto> Nooo!! *goes crazy* @_2'''
<Ryou> *comes up behind them* Relax... he's only thirteen. It's not like he has extremely evil ideas... like me. *laughs evilly*
<Ari> *glares* Watch it.
<Ryou> *glares back*
<Mokuba> *clicks open the lock to the door and peeks out* Uh... oh! Hey guys! You're home late...
<Seto> @_o' *attacks Mokuba* What did you do?!
<Setsuna> *rolls eyes* Oh leave the kid alone! *smacks him away*
<Mokuba> *blinks* Oh... uh... we were just watching a movie... *looks oddly at his bother*
<Ari> Come on, lets get in and eat some candy ^-^'
<Ryou> *grumbles* I want to eat something else besides icky sweet candy...
<Setsuna> *looks at Ryou* If you're thinking about biting one of us, keep your fangs in your mouth.
<Ryou> !_! =_=' *bites his tongue*
<Marik> *laughs to himself as they all step inside*
<Ryou> *punches Marik in the arm*
<Setsuna> *snatches Seto's candy bag and runs upstairs*
<Seto> HEY!!! *runs after her*
<Ari> *watches them run upstairs* *blink blink* Delinquents...
<Marik> *gets an idea* *picks Ari up and carries her into the living room*
<Ari> @_2'
<Ryou> *glowers*
*upstairs*
<Setsuna> *hid in Seto's closet* ^-^'
<Seto> *grumbles* Where the heck did she go? *walks into his room* Erg... silly girl.
<Setsuna> *snickers*
<Seto> *hears her* All right... I know you're in here. Make it easy on yourself and give up now...
<Setsuna> *pulls on the door handle, so that it will be harder for Seto to get her*
<Seto> *hears the handle on his closet move* *smirks* lets see... maybe you aren't in here... maybe you're over in the other room... *pretends to walk away, but actually hides next to the door where she can't see him if she looks out*
<Setsuna> *blink* *peeks out* Huh? *takes a step out into the room, trying to see if Seto went down the hall*
<Seto> Gotcha! *grabs her from behind and pulls her into the closet*
<Setsuna> Agh! *whines* Seto!
<Seto> *holds her close to him* Thought you could steal my candy, eh?
<Setsuna> *smirks* Or maybe something else... I still owe you that biting...
<Seto> Not if I bite you first... *kisses her neck*
<Setsuna> Ah! *laughs* You're so evil...
<Seto> *Smiles* So you noticed...
<Setsuna> *leans into him, licking his shoulder lightly, then biting into it hard*
<Seto> *gasps* And you're calling me evil!!
<Setsuna> *chuckles evilly*
*suddenly they hear a knock on the closet door*
<Ryou> *peers in* *cough* Sorry to interrupt... but, I wanted to ask if you've got any booze in the house.
<Seto> *raises an eyebrow* Ryou, do you mind? And no, not anything you're gonna get your hands on.
<Ryou> Oh well, I already found it. *grins evilly*
<Seto> Oh no you don't *gets up and chases him*
<Ryou> *jumps down the stairs, knocking into Marik, who was searching for the others* Ungh!
<Marik> Hey! Watch it!
<Seto> *comes running down the stairs* Ryou, you idiot!
<Ryou> *gets up and runs to the kitchen*
<Seto> *runs after him*
<Ari> *comes out of the living room, watching curiously* *blink*
<Ryou> *grabs a bottle off of the counter where he left it and jumps onto the counter* Ha!
<Ari> =_=' Immature freak...
<Setsuna> *is suddenly on the other side of Ryou and snatches the bottle out of his hand, making him fall over backwards* Idiot.
<Ryou> *glares* Dammit. *crosses arms* Hey, if I don't get to be with anyone for the night, I should get some beer as a compensation. Legally I'm old enough to drink... where I come from!
<Setsuna> *glare* Don't even think it. Besides, its not like we're all staying here. Everyone's going home soon.
<Seto> *coughs, but gets a glare from Setsuna*
<Marik> *walks in* Yeah... Mokuba's movie's almost done.
<Setsuna> Oh yeah! I haven't met his girlfriend yet! *walks into the living room*
<Mokuba> *has his arms around a girl around his age with long blonde hair* *sees Setsuna* Hi Setsuna. What's up?
<Setsuna> I wanted to meet your friend *smiles*
<Mokuba> Oh, this is Kurea... Kurea, this is Setsuna, Seto's girlfriend.
<Setsuna> Hi there ^^
<Kurea> *smiles* Hello
<Seto> *comes in* Hello Kurea... *grabs Setsuna's arm and whispers in her ear* You still haven't given back my candy... *louder* See you later... *drags Setsuna out of the room*
<Setsuna> *blink blink* Heeeyy...
<Seto> Where'd you stash it?
<Setsuna> ^.^ Not telling
<Seto> *glares* I'll poke you with my bracelets... *wraps his arms around her waist, poking her in the bare sides with this spikes*
<Setsuna> *whimpers* Nothing you can do will make me tell ^^
<Ryou> *looks over* Betcha' I could loosen her lips for you, Seto.
<Seto> *glare*
<Setsuna> *winces* I wouldn't let you come NEAR me!
<Ari> *walks in* Yeah... neither would I...
<Ryou> *turns on her* *smirks* Why? You'd be jealous?
<Ari> You're the one that's jealous, Ryou. *smiles as Marik comes and puts his arms around her waist*
<Marik> *gives him that same 'haha' look*
<Ryou> *clenches his fists so hard his hands start shaking* Why you... *storms off*
<Seto> *rolls his eyes and goes back to threatening Setsuna* Where is it?
<Setsuna> *shakes head* Nuh-uh!
<Seto> *pulls her close, turning her so she's facing away, and talks into her ear* If you don't give me the candy, I'll have to resort to something else to eat.
<Ari> =_=' I heard that...
<Setsuna> @-2' NO!!!!
<Seto> Well are you going to tell me?
<Marik> *smirks and whispers in Ari's ear* I want something sweet too...
<Ari> =_=' No. *giggles*
<Setsuna> No... ^=^'
<Seto> *looks at Marik* I think we're just going to have to eat these two. They won't give us anything else...
<Marik> Yes, I agree... *kisses Ari's neck, and nibbles on it*
<Ari> Wagh! *tries to smack him away* Marik! Not NOW!! @_2'
<Marik> But I'm hungry!
<Seto> Me too! *nips at Setsuna's ear*
<Ari> *squirms* Wait until later, Marik!! Yii! *screams as he bites her extra hard* Oh you-! *breaks away and runs into the living room*
<Marik> *grumbles* I can't bite her in front of the young'ins... *smirk* I'll just have to drag her away... *follows Ari*
<Setsuna> O_o'' Setooo... Stop.... *giggles*
<Seto> Not until you tell me where you hid my candy...
<Setsuna> *shakes head* Nope! *breaks away and runs into the living room too*
<Seto> T^T' She's so mean...
<Ryou> *walks in* Your girlfriend is crazy... she just mowed Mokuba down trying to run away from you, bozo.
<Seto> o_O'
<Marik> *comes out of the living room* Did Ari come back out here? She's not in there!
<Seto> No... did you see Setsuna?
<Marik> No... *blink* where'd they go??
<Ryou> *uses his Ring* Shadow Realm...
<Seto> *suddenly grins* Shadow Realm? Heh... Marik, they can't get away in there!
<Marik> One problem... I don't think I can get in there...
<Seto> Why not? The Shadow Rod is basically made of the same thing the Shadow Realm is... should work.
<Marik> *takes out the Shadow Rod* I dunno... *tries using it to get to the Shadow Realm, and it works*
<Seto> *blink* *goes there with the Mill. Rod*
<Marik> *looks around* Now where did they go...?
<Ryou> *follows them* I can help...
<Seto> *looks at Marik* Hey, you're hair's different.
<Ryou> *looks at Marik too* It's... you look like your dark side now. *holds up his Ring in a defensive stance* Maybe Setsuna didn't meld him completely.
<Liana> *from behind them* Actually, I put them together fine. If you recall, I did say that he would look like this in the Shadow Realm.
<All the guys> O_o
<Kibira> Yes... and now we have you guys right where we want you.
<Seto> *turns into Seth*
<Seth> Actually, I think we're the ones who have you.
<Ryou> *starts laughing* You're all wrong. Now I've got all you! *sends out a pulse of energy, knocking everyone back*
<Marik> *drops the Shadow Rod from the force*
<Ryou> *picks it up* Heh…
<Marik> *eyes widen* What are you-?
<Ryou> *eyes burn blood red* Ha ha ha haaa! *voice changes slightly, sounding deeper, and with a slight echo to it* You thought it was over, didn't you Namu? But guess what…? Even though you and Marik are now bonded together, I'm still here! And I've taken over a new body now!!
