Summary: It would be a party they would never forget.....because Fubuki would replay the damned tape at every reunion until they died. Thank God Judai broke the sound......
A/N: One-shot. Set in my Tales from the Academy-verse.
Things to Note:
/is the camera's settings/
(is what the person holding the camcorder is doing or the camcorder's actions)
when someobdy first appears on the camera, their name pops up in bold underneath them.
A/N: This story has no dialogue, because the camcorder's sound broke. You'll see why. The story is told like the gang is watching the video later. Except, I left out their comments.
(Camcorder switches on. Static fades to scene in Duel Academy's main room.)
/Camcorder on. Battery Level: Full. Time: 8:56 p.m./
The room is decked out to the max in decorations of red, blue, and yellow. Balloons and streamers can be seen throughout. The room is crowded with party-goers celebrating the end of the school year.
(Camera shifts around to take it all in, before finally focusing)
Momoe Hamaguchi can be seen chatting with Ryo Marufiji, who looks slightly put off by whatever she's saying.
(Camera shifts.)
Johan Andersen is carrying a little girl on his back. The camera follows his actions as he walks over to a woman with short brown hair who takes the girl and begins to dance around with her.
(Camera shifts)
Asuka Tenjoin walks up to Judai Yuki with a determined expression on her face. She taps him on the shoulder. When he turns to face her, she says something. He looks surprised and opens his mouth to reply. Asuka covers his mouth with her hand, and shakes her head. She says something else and he smiles and nods. They hug and she wanders off into the crowd. Judai fidgets with his shirt and begins to search for something.
He looks directly into the camera and grins, walking forward.
(Camcorder jerks and an odd tumult of fuzzy images goes by as the person holding the camcorder runs away)
(Camera finally steadies.)
Axel Brodie glares at Tavia Sinclair. The two appear to be yelling furiously at each other. She waves her arm around and pokes him in the chest hard. He crosses his arms and leans down so they're face to face. They continue to yell while she gestures wildly.
(Camera shifts)
Lorie Wulf is sitting at a table writing in her notebook. Sitting on the table beside her is a baby carrier. Every once in awhile, she'll glance into the contraption to check on the sleeping infant inside.
During one of these percursory checks, she happens to look up and into the camera lense and gives a small wave before going back to writing.
Mana Darklighter runs up and begins to tug on her arm. She says something and Lorie shakes her head, gesturing at the sleeping infant. Mana frowns and jerks her arm again. Lorie looks up and says something that causes Mana to blush and stammer. Lorie grins and points to the side.
(Camera shifts to the direction she is pointing)
Sho Marufuji can be seen walking in the direction of the two girls.
/Camcorder on. Battery Level: 3/4. Time: 9:23 p.m./
(Camera follows him)
He steps up to the table and takes Mana's hand. He asks her something and she smiles and nods. They walk off. Lorie props her head on her hand to watch them go. She then sighs and goes back to writing.
(Camera shifts)
Sadie Kurosaki walks up to Tyranno Kenzan and holds out a wrapped present to him. He takes it and says something to her, holding up a finger for her to "wait just a minute". Kenzan reaches into his pocket and pulls out a bag, handing it to her.
Sadie stares at the bag for a few seconds, before fainting backwards while Hassleberry darts forward to catch the girl, as if he is well-used to this scenario by now.
(Camera shifts)
Jun Manjoume and Junko Makita tear up the dance floor with their skills. She looks like the happiest girl on earth and he doesn't even grimace when she steps on his feet accidentally.
(Camera follows them around for a few minutes before finally shifting away)
Asuka watches her best friend and one-time suitor with a smile. Mitsuru Ayanokouji steps forward and asks her to dance. Asuka politely declines. He walks away with a dejected look. Asuka focuses her gaze back on her dancing friends with a wistfull expression.
(Camera shifts)
Aside from Manjoume and Junko, their weren't very many people on the dance floor. Mana and Sho dance by the camcorder lense. A little boy with brown hair is also seen dancing with a blonde girl. They appear to be having fun until the boy makes a comment and the girl hits him in the head and runs away. Momoe dances past with Edo Pheonix.
(Camera shifts)
Ohara slouches by the punch bowl looking vaguely menacing until the little girl Johan had been carrying earlier walks up. Ohara smiles kindly and gets her a plate of food. Kohara sits off to the side playing with a laptop. Hayato Maeda is steadily working his way through a plate of grilled cheeses while talking to Maximillion Pegasus, who is casually sipping a glass of red wine.
Beside them both sits Kouina Tashigi who seems to be drawing something in a sketchbook. Hayato leans over to see what she is working on and the green-haired girl gets embarrassed and hides it.
Having gotten her plate of food, the little girl starts off into the crowd again.
(Camera follows the little girl as she walks away)
She stumbles along trying to keep her plate from spilling and almost crashes into a boy with black hair. He grabs her plate before she can drop it and hands it back to her with a smile and a few words. She blushes and runs off to the blonde girl, who is glaring at a little girl with redhair. The redhead says something snotty and the blonde turns away to ignore her blushing.
(Camera shifts)
Kenzan and Jim Crocodile Cook stand off to the side of the room leaning against a wall. They discuss something until Tavia storms over and says something to them. Kenzan furiously yells back at her and Jim looks perplexed. He shakes his head and turns away as Axel walks up to say something to Tavia, who responds by taking a swing at him. Sadie steps in to try and stop the oncoming fight.
(Camera shifts)
A woman with long blonde hair talks to a younger woman with redhair, who is patting her bulging stomach with a carefree smile. A man with blonde hair steps up and hugs the redhead, before taking the other woman's hand and leading her off to dance.

(Camera shifts)
Tavia is dancing with Daichi. He glances over at Momoe.
