Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Hey everyone!" I yelled happily, rasing my hands in the air. The ones that heard me turned in our direction. "Where have you guys been? Shopping or something?" Malik asked, noticing the high spirits of the girls and the flustered appearances of the guys. "No, but that is a good idea," I said. "We just went on a walk and got lunch while these three caused chaos," Yuugi said, point out Chloie, Azu, and me.

Before Chloie could poke Bakura he spoke, "get away from me. Poke me and I'll bite off your finger." He resituated himself a little and looked over at Ryou. "Are you still reading?"
Ryou looked up surprised, "huh?"
"Yeah you. Why do you read so much?" Bakura asked.
Ryou simply replied, "because I like to."
Otogi sat in one of the chairs on the deck, "so what do you guys think we should do?"
I walked over to Otogi and sat in a chair next to him, "I don't know..."

(lol)
At Bakura's remark, I instantaneously jumped back with my poking finger tucked safely in a fist. "I wouldn't do that..." I say, even though he doesn't seem to notice.

I turn my attention to Kaiba (poor guy... he has my attention... xd ) "You party-pooper!!" I say with a pout expression.
"Actually, I'm not a 'party-pooper' because I never mentioned anything about a party..." he replies rolling his eyes softly.
"What is a party pooper anyhow? I never really understood that expression..." Otougi wonders aloud while he plays with his hair. Seto watches his face scrunch up as he tries to understand.
"Don't hurt yourself..." Malik comments. Otougi responds by shooting a "oh-will-you-just-come-off-it-already---you-know-you're-not-even-close-to-being-funny" glance. I start to laugh at the face.

I jumped out of my chair and skipped around to find people who wanted to play. "Hey Malik! Yami Malik! You want to play Hide an' Seek with us?"
Malik looked up from his cards and thought a moment, "sure I guess. There isn't much else to do right now." He put down his cards as he stood up, and walked over to the small group that was playing. Yami Malik sat with his eyes closed listening to his music. I slowly pulled his headphones off, "Hey! What do you want? I don't appreciate it when people yank my headphones off of my head!" I put my hands on my hips and took his headphones!" He scowled as he reached for them. I held them above my head. "This... This-This 'Yank' you speak of. I did not 'YANK' them off of your head. I simply removed them without force. I do not know this 'yank' you speak of." Bakura, hearing the small dispute, laughed at Yami Malik. "Well are you going to play Hide an' Seek or not?" I said, "you too 'Kura. You gonna play too?"
Yami Malik stood up and yanked the headphones out of my hands and put them back on. Bakura sat in his chair, looking over at the group, and pondered the idea for a moment.
Ryou, who was listening for quite some time now, piped up from his spot under the tree, "I'll play!" He set his book aside and got up.
Jones jumped up and down happily, "that's great! We have more people!"
I walked over eagerly to Bakura, "well will you play or not? We're going to start soon!"

"Anyone else?" I asked, looking at Jou and Kaiba. "Nah... I don't think I feel like it," Jou said. I pouted, but said "Fine" anyway. "Now we just have to figure out who's it." Yuugi said.

"I say we just play Hide n' Seek. I have bad memories of when I was little and we played it tag-style," I said, partly to make the playing ground more even and partly because I really did have bad memories. "Wait... so all we have to do is hide and wait to be found?" Yami asked, thinking it sounded a little too simple. "Yeah, that's it! I think you're allowed to move from one spot to another, too, but if you're seen you're it!" I answer cheerfully.

I looked around frantically for a place to find to hide, "AHH!" I yelled to Chloie as I wandered around, "hey when someone is found do they help the first person search too? Then more people can participate and it will get done faster! And we can hide more!" I then proceeded to crawl into a space behind some potted plants. Bakura was nearby and saw a bin near the garden. I watched him jump into it, and then quickly get out. I guessed he just realised it contained sharp gardening equiptment, "AH!" Bakura yelped and jumped up, "RA DAMMIT! There's a shovel in my a**!" He swore flailing his arms and threw the shovel across the lawn and began looking for another place to hide. He looked like a fool. Ryou, who saw the whole event, doubled over laughing, and since he could no longer run, collapsed behind a tree for a hinding place, and tried to contain his giggling. I stuck my head out from my hiding place, "shut-up Ryou! We're gonna get found out!" This only caused him to laugh more, and his eyes began to water. "I guess it doesn't take much to make him go off like that." I wispered to myself as I watched the others run around hiding.

I suddenly heard Yuugi yell that time was up. I quickly ducked my head behind the plants and waited. From where I was positioned I could see malik (at least some part of his hair) hiding under some platforms in the playground area further away. I could also hear Yuugi walking and runing around looking for people.
The others hid in various spots in the yard. Bakura had managed to conceal himself, and almost blend in, in a fully leaved tree. He comfortably sat in his post high up watching Yuugi through the gaps of the leaves. Otogi had decided to play as well and was hidden underneath a pile inflatable chairs by the pool. But Ryou was poorly hidden since he only had the base of a tree to work with.
