American Idol The Yu-Gi-Oh! Mix!



Chapter One: Practicing for the Contest





“Hey Grandpa, we're home!” Yugi walked in the door to the shop/home with Joey, Tristan, Mai, Duke, Tea, and Serenity.



“Yugi, you got some mail today from Kaiba.”



“Huh?” “Why would Kaiba send me mail?” Yugi read the note out loud:



Yugi,



I heard that you're thinking of trying out for American Idol, so come by my mansion with you're friends for practice.





Kaiba



“Alright, something ain't right here.” Joey stated. “Kaiba hates us beyond all reason, so why is he being so nice?”



“Well ever since he beat Yami in that duel Anubis interrupted he's been nice to everyone now.” Stated Yugi



“We'll if he's being nice then I say let's go!” said Tristan



Fast Forward to Kaiba's Mansion



“Glad you could come Yugi!” Greeted Kaiba.



“Kaiba being nice?????” Thought Joey.



“Hey guys!” said a cheerful Mokuba “My big brother bought a karaoke set so that we could practice!”



“Anyway there's soda and snacks beside the set so enjoy yourselves.” Said Kaiba.



“But we don't know the lyrics to some of out favorite songs so how are we going to sing?” asked Yugi questionably.



“My computer has a full database of songs so you tell me the song and the lyrics will appear on the board behind the computer.”



“Also a friend of mine is here and he is also auditioning for American Idol.”



The boy was named Mike, and he had black/brown hair that was in a beach boy wave style, blue jeans, and a blue shirt that matched perfectly with his eyes.



“Hi I'm Mike.” Mike said to the group.



“Mike's going to sing first, if that's okay with everyone.” Kaiba explained.



They all agreed, so Mike headed up the platform.



“I'm going to sing, “All Star” by Smashmouth.



Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me

I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed

She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb

In the shape of an "L" on her forehead



Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming

Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running

Didn't make sense not to live for fun

Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb



So much to do so much to see

So what's wrong with taking the back streets

You'll never know if you don't go

You'll never shine if you don't glow



Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play

Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid

And all that glitters is gold

Only shooting stars break the mold



It's a cool place and they say it gets colder

You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older

But the meteor men beg to differ

Judging by the hole in the satellite picture



The ice we skate is getting pretty thin

The waters getting warm so you might as well swim

My world's on fire how about yours

That's the way I like it and I never get bored



Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play

Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid

And all that glitters is gold

Only shooting stars break the mold



Somebody once asked could you spare some change for gas

I need to get myself away from this place

I said yep what a concept

I could use a little fuel myself

And we could all use a little change

Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming

Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running

Didn't make sense not to live for fun

Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

So much to do so much to see

So what's wrong with taking the back streets

You'll never know if you don't go

You'll never shine if you don't glow



Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play

Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid

And all that glitters is gold

Only shooting stars break the mold



Mike had a neat tone to his voice echoed through the entire mansion. Mike looked around the room and saw the shocked expressions that everyone had, no one had thought that a boy of his size could sing as well as that.



“Whoa! That was amazing Mike!” congratulated Serenity.



“Yeah Mike, for a person of your size your singing is awesome!” said Yugi.



“Thanks guys that means a lot to me!”



“Alright how about Wheeler goes next?”



“Aright, alright, I'm singin' “Ocean Avenue” by Yellowcard



“Okay”, Seto said as he walked over to the table and typed something into the computer. “You ready Wheeler?



“Yep, and this song is dedicated to my “good friend” Mai



“There's a place off Ocean Avenue, where I used sit and talk to you. We were both 16 and it felt so right, sleeping all day, staying up all night...staying up all night.

There is a place on the corner of Cherry Street. We would walk on the beach in our bare feet. We were both 18 and it felt so right, sleeping all day,

staying up all night...staying up all night.



If I could find you now things would get better. We would leave this town and run forever. Let your waves crash down on me and take me away.

There is a piece of you that's here with me. It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see. When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by. I can make believe that you're here tonight... that you're here tonight.

If I could find you now, things will get better. We could leave this town and run forever. I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together. Let your waves crash down on me and take me away.

I remember the look in your eyes, when I told you that it was goodbye. You were begging me not tonight, not here, not now. We're looking up at the same night sky and keep pretending that the sun will not rise. Be together for one more night... somewhere, somehow.

If I could find you now, things would get better. We would leave this town and run forever. I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together. Let your waves crash down on me and take me away”

Joey finished the song and the music stopped, which gave the audience to cope with Joey's awesome performance. Even Kaiba was shocked that Joey could sing that good, but he quickly shook it off.



“Nice job Joey!” complimented Serenity



“You'll probably make it all the way to the finals!” said Mike



“Thanks guys!” Joey said



“Alright now let's see how good Yugi is.” Kaiba said.



“Okay I'm going to sing “Step Up” By Jean Rodriguez.”



Kaiba once again typed in something in the computer and the lyrics popped up on the board.



Step up, Step up Ill let you try to get to me, But at the end you're gonna see, the only way to go through me yeah, yeah, Step up, Step up Ill let you try to get to me
But at the end you're gonna see, Because the victory is pulling you right at me

Do you really wanna know it, I don't think you wanna know it, The way that this is goin down, There my hero on the ground, Do you really think you can, Take over Pegasus's plans, I don't think you have a chance, chance

I got my friends, yeah, they got my back, yeah, my hero will come and kill your attack, Pack your bags cuz you're not stayin' long, your packs are gonna gonna be gone



Step up, Step up Ill let you try to get to me, But at the end you're gonna see
the only way to go through me yeah, yeah, Step up, Step up Ill let you try to get to me, But at the end you're gonna see, Because the victory is pulling you right at me,



Hey, hey what's goin' on, you know that I'm right, and you're so, so wrong
I'm giving you just one last warning, That's no lie, Look around you what you gonna do now, T-t-t-try to come up but you're goin' down, Ill tell you again that you're not stayin' long, Listen you, ya gonna be gone



Step up, Step up Ill let you try to get to me, But at the end you're gonna see
the only way to go through me yeah, yeah, Step up, Step up Ill let you try to get to me, But at the end you're gonna see, Because the victory is pulling you right at me



“Well Yugi, you're better than expected but I think you were holding back just a bit,” said Kaiba



“Don't listen to him Yug, you were great!”



“Awesome singing Yugi!” Mike said.



“Alright, now that Yugi's done its time for Serenity to sing!”
