Disclaimer: I do not own YuGiOh! or Ranma 1/2. Those belong to Kazuki Takahashi and Rumiko Takahashi respectively. This is a product of my warped mind wanting to cross EVERYTHING over with Ranma 1/2 and actually writing it down this time. Of course, this is just for FUN and I'm not making any money out of it, nor do I wish to, so please do not sue me.

------------------

Later, after the tents had been pitched and they had eaten a little, their appetites having been affected by worry, the now diminished group sat at the edge of the camp-site looking at the stars.

"I hope that Jonouchi is doing OK," Honda broke the strained silence.

"I'm sure he is, he's made of stern stuff after all," Yugi said reassuringly, "If anyone can pull through this it's Jonouchi."

"But how come the spring acted the way it did?" Otogi wondered. "Even that Guide guy said that he'd never seen or heard anything like it before."

"I… didn't want to say anything before," Yugi said in a small voice, "but Yami said that he sensed Shadow Magic in the area."

"And that's unusual?" Otogi said.

"Well, yes, because this whole area is steeped in chaos magic. I don't know how the shadow magic came to be here, but it is an alien presence and probably mixed with the chaos magic to produce this result."

Honda jumped to his feet and rounded on the smaller teen. "Why in hell didn't you say anything before Yugi?" he demanded to know.

"Yami said that he had a feeling that it would be a bad thing to mention Shadow Magic around here," Yugi said apologetically, "and if there is one thing that Yami has learned over time it is to trust his gut feelings."

"Oh, sorry Yugi," Honda subsided, "I didn't mean to get all bent out of shape on you, it's just…"

"I understand," Yugi reassured his friend. "We are all worried about Jonouchi after all." He paused. "And Kaiba too."

"But why would you be worried about that stuck up prick?" Honda was incensed once again. "He's always treated Jou like utter shit!"

"Did you forget what I told you earlier on? When Jou first started acting weird?" Yugi asked. "That has a bearing on things."

"You should also consider how Mokuba is going to feel about the curse and the potential consequences relating to Kaiba Corp if someone were to find out about it. It's going to be hard to keep something like that a secret, and someone would definitely find a way to use it against him," Anzu added. "And that's something else I've been wondering," she mused, "What would have happened to Jonouchi if Kaiba had just... died normally and not drowned in one of those freaky springs?"

Yugi took Anzu's hand and squeezed it. "Yami tells me that if Kaiba had died then Jou would have followed him. As a general rule, soul mates cannot survive once one dies, the pain is said to be so great. He said that there was only one known instance of someone living on without their soul mate, but that person lived the rest of their life in incredible pain and they were completely changed by it."

The group was silent as they digested this information. At least Jou was still with them, even if he was cursed to turn into Kaiba. There had to be a chance of a cure somewhere down the line...

Otogi sighed , breaking the silence and changing the subject, "Where does the teacher get off bringing us to a place like this. How did he even get permission?"

"Well, there have been… rumours about past class trips with this particular teacher," Yugi informed the black haired teen. "Something weird is usually said to happen, but the teacher doesn't seem to notice."

"Things are said to be covered up afterwards,"Anzu added, "so because there is no evidence nothing ever seems to be done about stopping these trips."

"So this kind of thing is just par for the course then?" Otogi said as he shook his head.

"Yep, it certainly seems that way," Yugi said.

"Lets just hope that we can get out of here without anyone else getting cursed then," Otogi said as he stood up. "Right, sod this, I'm going to bed. You coming Honda?"

"Yeah, right with you. See you guys later," Honda said as he joined Otogi on the way back to the tent leaving Yugi and Anzu alone.

They sat quietly together for a while, just staring at the stars and enjoying being in the presence of the other, at least until Yugi noticed Anzu shivering slightly. It really had started to turn chilly, but he wasn't ready to head back to the tent just yet. He could hear Yami urging him on so he scooted over and put his arm around the lightly shivering girl. Anzu, who had not been expecting the contact, gave a start.

"Is this OK?" Yugi asked in concern that he'd overstepped the mark. Anzu simply nodded and leaned into him, savouring the warmth that came from his small, yet perfectly formed body.

"This is nice," She said after a few minutes of snuggling.

"Yeah," was the only response he could muster.

"Yugi?" Anzu made his name sound like a question.

He pulled back slightly and looked up at her. "Yeah?"

She didn't say anything in return, just leaned forwards and gave him a kiss right on the lips. It started off innocently, as these things usually do, but it quickly deepened into something more passionate as feelings long locked away were forced to the surface.

Before things could go too far, Anzu pulled away with a somewhat dazed look on her face. All that was going through her mind was 'wow I kissed Yugi' over and over again.

"Anzu," Yugi said the girl's name with some concern as she just continued to stare into space. "Are you alright?"

"Oh heaven's Yugi, I'm more than alright. You?"

"Yeah, you know…" he tailed off.

"What is it Yugi?" Anzu asked, suddenly concerned that she may have overstepped the mark and ruined their friendship.

Yugi looked up shyly, "I just wanted to tell you that I've wanted to do that for what feels like forever." He bowed his head and blushed. Anzu couldn't help but smile. He was just so innocent sometimes.

"Yugi," Anzu gathered the smaller teen into a fierce hug, "You aren't the only one you know."

"But what about…"

"Yami?" Anzu interrupted what Yugi was about to say. "Oh, Yugi, I've always known that it's a two for one deal when it comes to you." She smiled, "And I wouldn't want it any other way." She stiffened suddenly as the body she was holding in her arms shifted and became slightly bigger. "Yami!" she exclaimed.

The spirit smirked at her. "Did I scare you?" he asked.

"No, not at all. It's just that you took me by surprise, that's all." Anzu averted her face in embarrassment.

Yami reached forwards and turned her back to face him. "This is alright isn't it?" he said as he leaned towards her.

"Yes," was the whispered response that she gave just before his lips closed gently over hers. The kiss was quite different from the one that she had given to Yugi. Yugi's kiss was hesitant and full of innocence, whereas Yami was far more confident and experienced. She completely melted into him unable to resist.

"Lights out in half an hour!" The call came across the camp-site, causing Anzu to spring away from Yami and the spirit to retreat back inside his host.

"I guess we should go back and get to bed," Anzu sighed. She stopped short as she noticed a strange look cross Yugi's features. "What's the matter Yugi?" She asked.

"Oh, it's just that Otogi and Honda have been alone in the tent for a while now and…" he couldn't bring himself to say any more, but fortunately Anzu got the drift.

"Can't you just tell them to stop if it makes you uncomfortable?" she asked gently.

Yugi looked away in embarrassment. "Well, Jonouchi would threaten to knock their heads together, but seeing as he's not here…"

"What about Yami?"

"Oh, he just says to let them get on with it," Yugi said. "Personally I think he's a bit of a voyeur."

"Well, given his circumstances I don't think you can blame him for that," Anzu said sympathetically.

"I guess not. It's still embarrassing though," Yugi said even as he heard Yami snort in the back of his mind.

Anzu came to a decision. "Come on then," She said as she extended her hand to the smaller teen.

"Anzu?" Yugi put a wealth of questions into that one word.

"You… can sleep in my tent tonight if you want." She offered with an embarrassed flush.

"But…"

"We don't have to do anything," Anzu said hurriedly, "It's way too soon for anything like that and this is most definitely not the place." She looked at him shyly, "But it would be nice to cuddle for a while."

Yugi made up his mind. "I think I would like that too," he said, his face red as Yami chuckled in the back of his mind.

"First we'd better get your sleeping bag and stuff," Anzu said as she cracked her knuckles. "Don't worry, I'll deal with that. You go and wait in my tent." Yugi nodded and Anzu stalked over to the other tent and simply barged in, disturbing Otogi and Honda who were involved in a passionate make out session.

"What the hell? Anzu!" Honda said in outrage even as Otogi pushed him away.

"I've come to get Yugi's stuff. He's staying in my tent tonight." She said.

"Woo! Go Yug!" Otogi exclaimed as he made a pumping motion with his fist.

"Get your mind out of the gutter Otogi," she spat at the green eyed teen. "Unlike some people around here, Yugi doesn't think with his dick and he'd like to be able to actually get some sleep tonight and not have to listen to you two going at it."

"Better make sure that the teacher doesn't catch you," Honda observed.

"Don't worry about us Honda," Anzu replied, "you had just better make sure that the teacher doesn't catch you with all the noise you were making."

"Alright Anzu, thanks for the warning," Otogi said. "Have a good night." Then he pulled Honda back on top of him, effectively ending the conversation. Anzu shook her head and left the tent, making sure that she zipped the flaps completely closed as she went.

"Here you go Yugi," Anzu said as she quickly entered her own, smaller tent and passed his stuff over.

"Thanks Anzu," Yugi said gratefully. "Dare I ask what they were up to when you barged in on them?"

"What do you think?" Anzu replied as she rolled her eyes. "Seriously, if we had been a few minutes later I think they would have gone a lot further than simply making out."

"Oh," Yugi said as he once again went beet red.

"I don't really get it though," She mused.

"What don't you get?" Yugi asked.

"I thought that they were chasing Jonouchi's sister. When did all that change?"

"It didn't," Yugi replied.

"What do you mean?" She was confused and not sure she would like the answer to that.

"They are both still chasing her, but now they want to get her to be in a threesome with them."

"How does Shizuka feel about this?" Anzu asked.

"I'm not really sure. I don't think she realises what they are up to." Yugi said.

"Does Jonouchi know?" She asked incredulously.

"Of course not," Yugi replied, "Can you imagine what he would do to that pair if he even caught a whiff of it? No, Jou was relieved when Honda and Otogi got together because he thought that it meant that they would finally leave his little sister alone."

"Oh my, I wouldn't like to be in their shoes when Jou does find out," Anzu exclaimed, "and he is bound to find out sooner or later."

"Me either," Yugi said, "but I'm guessing that it'll be easier for them now that Jou is likely to be out of the picture for a while…"

"I agree with you there," Anzu said sadly. "I guess we can only hope that Kaiba will come around, but it'll probably be a cold day in hell when that happens." She shivered at the thought. "Come on, we'd better get to bed before the teachers come to investigate why the lights are still on."

Soon they were in their sleeping bags and lying together. Yami opened his eyes, watched Anzu sleep for several minutes, then retreated back inside his host as he settled back next to her to have the best night sleep he'd had in a long time.

-----------------------

Seto Kaiba finally set foot over the threshold of the Kaiba Manor and breathed a sigh of relief. He was glad to be finally home after having what had frankly been an appalling day. Mokuba followed closely behind, clearly still concerned for his brother.

"I'm heading upstairs to take a long hot shower and change out of these disgusting rags," Seto said with some distaste, picking at the unfamiliar clothes. "I'll come and see you in a while when I feel… cleaner."

"Alright big brother," Mokuba replied. He gave Seto a quick hug and ran off to his room to play on his video games.

Seto quickly made his way to his room and en suite bathroom. He wasted no time in programming the shower to a nice hot temperature, then he unceremoniously stripped off and stepped under the steaming water.

"What the…" Katsuya Jonouchi exclaimed as the hot water effected the change. "Where the hell am I?" He looked around himself to get some clues. Well, he was in a bathroom and a rather well appointed one at that. "Shit I'm at Kaiba's aren't I? Damn it how long has it been…" Noting his damp clothes strewn across the floor he was quite relieved. It couldn't have been all that long if Kaiba was only just getting a shower. Speaking of which… Jou was not the kind of person to look a gift horse in the mouth and he wasted no time taking advantage of the hot water and the chance to get himself nice and clean.

A few minutes later he stepped out of the shower and wondered what the hell he was going to wear. The clothes on the floor were completely out of the question as they were still all mucky from the springs of Jusenkyo. He shrugged, wrapped a towel around his waist and walked out into the bathroom into a room that was quite obviously Kaiba's bedroom. "Never thought I'd be in here," Jou mused to himself, then sighed. "Not in this lifetime anyway."

It really was quite a magnificent room. Jou thought that it had to be several times larger than his own. A large and obviously very comfortable bed took up the centre of the room. A luxurious desk with a top of the range laptop was taking up space a bit further over. The décor was all in blues and whites, reflecting the colour of his favourite dragon, a fact that made Jou roll his eyes.

He decided that he'd better find something to wear, but he had no idea where to look. He ended up opening more drawers and doors than he really felt comfortable doing. It really felt like he was invading Kaiba's privacy and that really did not sit well with the blond haired boy.

Eventually he managed to turn up a simple white T-shirt and grey sweat pants. He wondered that Kaiba even owned clothes like these, but he quickly donned the borrowed garments and set off to find Mokuba. If anyone could help him it would be Seto's little brother. He sure had a better personality than Kaiba anyway. He quickly made his way to the next room along and cracked open the door. He was gratified to see that he had got it right first time and Mokuba was sitting there engrossed in one of the latest video games.

Jou knocked on the now open door. "Mokuba," he called out to the black haired boy.

Mokuba spun around in shock. "Jonouchi? What on earth are you doing here? And why are you wearing those clothes? Does Seto know that you are here?"

"It's… a long story, Mokie," Jou said as he entered the room and flopped down next to Mokiba.

"Does it have to do with why Seto came home all wet and wearing your clothes?" Mokuba asked.

"Yeah it does," Jou said sadly, "and it's the sort of thing that your brother won't believe, so it makes things a lot harder, you know?"

"Uh-huh," Mokuba was intrigued and he sat forwards interested to hear the story that Seto had obviously not wanted to tell him. "So tell me already."

Jonouchi sighed and looked Mokuba straight in the eyes. "Alright, but there really is no easy way to say this." He paused to gather his thoughts, "You obviously know that Kaiba's helicopter crashed, right?"

"Yeah," Mokiba said, "The wreck was quite a sight. Seto really was lucky to survive that."

Jou gave Mokuba a funny look. "You remember that the valley there was full of pools?" When Mokuba nodded he carried on. "Well, your brother fell into one of those pools and drowned."

"That's not funny Jou and it's not possible," Mokuba exclaimed. "I saw Seto with my own eyes not half an hour ago!"

"Well you see, that's the thing. Those pools are cursed," Jou said sadly, "and with... how things are between us, I ended up falling in later on."

"What does that mean though?" Mokuba was confused and Jou wasn't making things very clear.

"Each pool carries its own curse," Jou explained, "like if someone were to fall into the spring of drowned cat, from then on they would turn into a cat when they are splashed with cold water. Hot water would return them to normal, but only until the next time they get splashed with cold water."

"So what you are saying is," Mokuba raised his hands to his mouth in horror, "that you fell into the spring of…" he tailed off, unable to complete the sentence.

"Yeah, I fell into the brand new temporary spring of drowned Seto Kaiba," Jou said bitterly.

"Temporary?" Mokuba asked. "What do you mean by that?"

"Well that's the really odd thing," Jou said. "The spring I fell in, to put it the same way the guide did, was supposed to be the spring of drowned dog, not the spring of drowned arrogant teenager." Jou shook his head, "The man said he'd never heard of anything like it before. He even threw a mouse in the spring to test it and it turned into a dog alright. Let me tell you that it was real strange seeing a dog act like a mouse."

"Hang on a minute," Mokuba said, "How do I know that you are telling me the truth? For all I know you could be yanking my chain."

"Well, explain how in hell I came to be here when I should be in China with the rest of the class?" Jonouchi asked. "There ain't no way I could have got here so damn fast; I don't have the same resources as you Kaibas." As Mokuba continued to look at him sceptically he continued, "Look kiddo, if that ain't enough for ya, you can go look for your brother. I can guarantee that you won't find him. You can also throw cold water over me at any time. That'll prove to you that what I'm tellin' ya is true!"

"So tell me, where were you when you... arrived here?" Mokuba wanted to know. Jou's answer would dictate whether he would even entertain this notion.

"In the bathroom," Jou stated simply. "Kaiba was fixin' to have a shower and the hot water caused the change."

"Alright Jou, I'll take your word for it for now," Mokuba conceded. "I'll probably take you up on that offer later on though. But in the meantime, what can you tell me about the curse?"

"Actually I don't know very much more than what I've already told you. The last thing I knew before I ended up here was that Yugi said he was going to try and talk to your brother about what happened. I'm guessing that it didn't go all that well," Jou said sadly. "I'll bet that Yugi pumped the Jusenkyo guide for as much information about how it all works as possible though."

"Does Yugi have his cell phone with him?" Mokuba asked.

"Yeah, but I can tell you that there is no reception out there." Jou replied.

"Well, no harm in trying," Mokuba shrugged as he picked up the phone and dialled. After a few moments he shook his head. "I got the answer phone. Do you want to leave a message?"

"Yeah that'd probably be for the best," Jou replied as he got up and walked over to Mokuba. "Don't want the little guy to worry too much." He took the phone from Mokuba, waited for the recorded message to finish and then began to speak. "Hey Yug, it's Jou. I'm at Kaiba's place right now and I've been telling Mokuba about what happened. Can you get in touch with him when you get back? Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Talk to you later, bud and look after yourself!" With that said he hung up and turned to Mokuba. "So what now?" he asked.

"I'm curious about something you said earlier, Jonouchi," Mokuba said. "You said that you ended up falling in the spring because of how things are between you and my brother. What did you mean by that?"

"I…I' don't think I can talk about that," Jou said, a look of pain crossing his face, "not right now anyway."

"If it concerns my brother I think I have a right to know," Mokuba insisted.

"I doubt that Kaiba would feel that way," Jou mumbled. He could see that Mokuba wasn't going to let it go, so he came up with an out. "Look, if you really want to know ask Yugi about it." He said, "He'll probably be able to explain it way better than I ever could anyway."

"OK Jonouchi," Mokuba sighed. "I'll let it go for now. So can I take you up on your previous offer? I want to see what Seto has to say about all this."

"Sure go right ahead," Jou said, "but I can tell you that he's gonna deny the whole thing."

"How much water do we need?" Mokuba asked as he went to fetch a glass of water.

"To be honest I have no idea," Jou said, "but I doubt that it'll need a huge amount. If it's a curse it's probably tripped pretty easily."

"Wow," Mokuba smirked, "that's a rare display of logic from you Jonouchi!"

"Oh yeah, you are definitely a Kaiba. You'll be calling me a dog next," Jou groused at the boy came towards him with the water. "Come on then get it over with.

"Alright then," Mokuba said as he approached the older boy apprehensively. He dipped his fingers into the cold water and flicked it towards Jou, hoping that it would be enough. If Jonouchi was telling the truth, the last thing he wanted to be faced with was an angry and drenched Seto Kaiba, even if he was his brother. He gasped in shock and almost dropped the glass as Jou abruptly changed into Seto.

"What the hell?" Seto blinked as he tried to get his bearings. The last thing he remembered was stepping into the shower, but now he was sitting on the couch with... "Mokuba? What am I doing in here?" He wiped his face in surprise as he recognised that it was slightly damp.

"Holy shit!" Mokuba exclaimed, "It's true! I thought that Jonouchi was bullshitting me!"

"Language Mokuba," Seto scolded, "and what about the mutt? What rubbish has he been filling your head with now?"

"Seto, he was here a moment ago… until I splashed him with cold water." Mokuba could tell that Jou was correct about his brother; there was no way that he was ever going to accept this without a fight.

"Don't tell me that they have you in on this prank as well," Seto said with exasperation. His patience was rapidly running out.

"But Seto," Mokuba protested, "How do you explain that you are in here when you were just getting into the shower? The hot shower."

"I… don't know," Seto replied, "but I refuse to believe that I am somehow cursed to turn into the mutt."

"Actually," Mokuba interrupted, "from what Jou told me it's him that's cursed to turn into you."

"And that is even more absurd," Seto shook his head. "No, I'm just suffering from stress, that's all. I'll make an appointment to see my physician tomorrow morning. Now I'm going back to my room to do some work and I don't want to hear any more about this nonsense, understood?"

"Yes Seto," Mokuba acquiesced, knowing that he would get no further with trying to convince his brother tonight.

"Good," Seto said as he turned to leave the room. He quickly made his way back to his own room, sat at his desk and booted his computer. He couldn't stop thinking about the strange events of the day, especially when it felt like he had drowned in that pool… Could it be true after all?

"Don't be absurd," he scoffed to himself, "There is no such thing as magic or cursed springs." Feeling a little better, he resolved to put it out of his mind and he went back to work.
