Monday October 1st
The sunlight shown through the curtains and windows of the Kame Game Shop in Domino City. The bright light poked it's way into the room of two small boys who were still asleep. As if awakened by a the light, Atem elegantly lifted himself to sit on the bed and yawned, lightly covering his mouth with one hand. And then he stretched. Looking over at his window, Atem removed himself from his bed. It seemed as if he was in a trance of some sort as he walked over to the window. Moving each curtain aside, he opened his window, the warm air soon filling the room. His eyelids lay heavy on his eyes, a small smile of comfort crossing over his lips. This peace was soon interrupted was a rough voice calling up to the boy, "Yuug! Atem! Are you boys up yet!"
"Yes Grandpa, We'll be down soon." Atem answered. He walked over to Yugi's bed and slightly shook him. "Yugi, wake up."
"Huh." moaning emitted from the bed. The lump in the bed moved slightly causing the sheets to shift and revealed a small teen underneath. "Let me sleep longer."
"As much as I would like to let you sleep, Yugi, you need to get up. We have to get ready for school."
"I am not going to school!" Yugi said as he pulled the sheets back over his head.
"Time to get up!" Atem said and pulled the blankets off of Yugi.
"No!" Yugi answered back and then pulled the covers back over him. "I'm having a three day weekend." Yugi said from under the covers.
"Ok then." Atem then walked over to the other side of the bed and snatched Yugi up out of the bed and flung Yugi over his shoulder.
"What are you doing!" Yugi yelled.
Atem didn't answer, he just carried the squirming Yugi down the hall, and stopped in front of the bathroom. He then shoved the door open. With the teen still over his shoulder he used his other hand to open the shower curtain, and in one quick movement he had placed the boy in the tub. Yugi looked at Atem with wide eyes at the realization of what the taller teen was going to do.
Atem had already reached over, and turned on the shower. The cold spray rushed out of the shower head and drenched the poor teen. After a couple of minutes Atem reached back over, and turned the shower off. He had to chuckle to himself at the sight before him. Yugi, standing in the tub, wearing Dark Magician pajamas, and complete soaked.
Yugi gave Atem a death stare while the taller teen stood there laughing at him. "You are dead Pharaoh," Yugi said as Atem stood there taking pictures with his phone and still laughing.
"Yes but before you kill me I'm going to send these pictures to your girlfriend."
"Atem you better not send those to Tea." Yugi snapped.
"To late I already hit send." Atem said
"What's going on in here you two?" Grandpa asked as he came into the bathroom and gave the boys a confused look.
"Nothing, I was just helping Yugi get ready for school." Atem replied trying hard not to laugh.
Grandpa let out a little laugh at the scene in front of him.
"It's not funny Grandpa." Yugi said.
"It's funny to us." Atem said.
"Well anyway, you boys had better hurry up and clean up this mess and get ready for school." Grandpa said and then left.
Atem looked back at Yugi. "You look like an angry wet cat." Atem said.
"Get out." Yugi said as he pointed towards the door. Yami left and Yugi slammed the bathroom door shut. The taller teen walked back to his and Yugi's room where he started to make his bed and then pulled his school uniform out of his closet. He heard the bathroom door open and footsteps head towards the room. Yugi entered the room with only a towel wrapped around his waist and a towel in his hand that he was using to dry his hair. "Showers free, I didn't leave you any hot water."
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
After his cold shower he got out and started drying himself off with a towel, he then wrapped it around his waist and stood at the sink looking at himself in the bathroom mirror. He looked at his light brown skin, he brought his hand up to touch the mirror then touched his cheek and felt his soft warm skin. It felt so good to have a body of his own, it felt good to be able to touch, feel, smell, taste, run, with his own body. No more seeing from eyes not of his own, feeling with someone else's fingers, No more being careful or mindful of his – Yugi's – body. He looked at his reflection as he smiled, happy to have a second chance at life.
His thoughts were interrupted when there was a knock at the door. "Atem are you almost done in there?" Yugi asked. "Joey and Tea are downstairs waiting for us."
"Just get going with out me, I'll catch up once I'm dressed." Atem said.
"Ok." Yugi said.
After he heard Yugi walk away he left the bathroom went to the bedroom, quickly changed into his school uniform, grabbed a piece of toast from the kitchen and was out the door and running to catch up with his friends who didn't get very far. "Hey Atem." Joey greeted. "Why weren't you ready when we got there?"
"Cause Yugi was hogging the shower." Atem said and took another bite of his toast.
"Oh Yeah I saw the pictures you texted." Joey said as he took out his phone. "Yugi you look like an angry wet cat." Joey said threw his laughter as Yugi blushed.
"Don't be embarrassed Yugi." Tea said. "I actually think you looked like a cute little wet angry kitten." Tea said as she pinched Yugi's cheek.
"Can we all stop laughing and be on our way to school or we'll be late." Yugi said
As Joey, Atem, Yugi and Tea were walking to school. Joey Tea and Yugi were talking but Atem wasn't listening, he was thinking and munching on his last piece of toast. Thinking about how It has been four months since he regained his memories of the past and got his own body. Everyone has been real supportive since everything has happened. Even his rival Seto Kaiba who was nice enough to help out and get him a birth certificate and get Atem citizenship into Japan. Kaiba even offered him a job at Kaiba Corp being a Secretary to Seto Kaiba which is no walk in the park, Seto can be a very demanding boss.
Yami Bakura is still around and got a body the same time he did. they don't go by Yami Yugi or Yami Bakura, they go by their original Egyptian birth names, Atem and Akefia. Yugi told everyone that he and Atem are cousins and Ryou telling everyone that he and Akefia are half brothers, saying that his father had an affair while on a trip to Egypt.
Atem and Akefia are attending school with Yugi, Ryou and their friends who are in their final year of high school.
Akefia and Atem both learning how the modern day world works and how to use modern day technology. Atem Successfully got his drivers license a month after he got his body unlike Akefia who is the only High School Senior in Drivers Ed class. Atem was happy to have friends and be alive again after 3000. He was happy for this second chance at life.
As the group was walking Atem looked up at Tea and Yugi who were holding hands. The two of them confessed their feelings for each other over the summer. Atem smiled for them but the smile quickly faded as he looked down at the ground.
He was unaware that his three friends had stopped walking causing him to bump into them. "Why did the three of you stop?"
"We noticed that you were sort of sulking behind us" Joey said to him.
"Yeah you look a little sad" Yugi said to him.
"I'm fine?" Atem answered as he continued walking to school
"Are you sure?" Yugi asked. "lately it seems like your mind has been elsewhere"
Atem sighed. "well everyone i know has someone, you and Tea have each other, Tristan has serenity, Mai and Joey are together, even Kaiba has someone, you just start to feel a bit lonely with all this love happening around you."
"don't worry Atem, you'll find someone." Yugi told him.
"Yeah I'm sure their is cute young lady out there waiting for you to rule her throne." Joey said.
"Joey that was terrible." Tea said. "Atem if your looking to meet someone, I know Sakura Hobbie has a crush on you."
"What?" Atem said as he stopped walking. "Sakura Hobbie?" Atem asked looking at Tea "The girl I accidentally shot with an arrow on Friday? Why does she have a crush on me?"
"Maybe she gets turned on by guys who shoot her with arrows." Joey said.
"No you idiot." Tea snapped at Joey. "She's had a crush on Atem before the arrow incident."
"How do you know she has a crush on Atem." Joey asked.
"Cause she was asking me about Atem during gym class on Friday."
"Friday...the same day Atem shot her with his arrow?" Joey asked. Tea slowly nodded her head. "Well then for we know her crush on Atem is over."
"I don't think so." Tea said. "Cause when I went to visit her in the hospital she joked about if this means Atem likes her, saying Atem shot her with one of cupids arrows and at the hospital she still wanted to know more about you."
"I see." Atem said quietly.
"Atem you don't have to be so upset." Tea said. "It was just an accident, the arrow just hit her shoulder, she's ok."
"I know she's ok, I went to see her in the hospital the next day but she was asleep, her dad was there and told me she was ok then asked me to leave."
"I heard he threw you out." Joey said.
"Is that why your upset?" Tea asked. "Her dad might not let you two date cause of what happened."
"No that's not it." Atem said.
"Then what's wrong?" Yugi asked.
Atem sighed. "I just...have a lot on my mind."
Their conversation was interrupted by the school bell. The three of them walked in and headed for their classes
After collecting their books they needed from their lockers Atem and Yugi were walking to their first class which was Algebra. As Atem was walking towards class he was thinking about Sakura, he has known that girl for a month and had know idea she was attracted to him. Atem was so deep in thought he wasn't watching where he was going he bumped into someone. "Ow...watch were you are going stupid Pharaoh, you almost re-broke my wrist" Akefia said as he rubbed his casted arm.
"Well maybe you should learn how to drive." Atem snapped back.
"Come guys don't fight, can't we just have a normal school day without you two fighting." Yugi said.
"No" Akefia and Atem both said.
"Come on guys let's just get to class" Yugi said as he grabbed Atem by the arm and pulled him towards the class. When they walked in they were greeted by...
"Hi guys long time no see."
"Marik" Atem and Yugi both said
"The one and only" Marik said happily.
"What are you doing here?" Joey asked
"I'm going to school here of course." Marik said.
"No, what I meant was..."
"Excuse me kids the bell has rung, please take your seats."
"Where do I sit Miss um..."
"Miss Mindy." Miss Mindy said as she looked at her clipboard then looked around the class room. "Why don't you take the seat in the fifth row next to Seto Kaiba, Seto would you please raise your hands."
"It's ok, I already know him." Marik said and went to his desk.
"Unfortunately." Seto said quietly for no one to hear but Atem who was sitting in front of him heard what he said and was going to say something.
"This great I get to sit behind you guys." Marik said as he sat down at his desk behind Yugi. "To bad Joey can't sit with us." Marik said as he looked at Joey who was sitting in the back of the class room.
"Well that was Joey's seat but he was caught cheating on his math test by copying his answers off of Seto's test." Atem explained to him.
"And now the cheating dog is being punished by being forced into a corner, although I still think he should be forced to sit outside." Seto said as he looked at Joey pouting in the corner with his arms crossed.
"Alright everyone please sit quietly and watch the school broadcast" Said Miss Mindy and turned on the TV. ""
"It's time for… Domino High's NEWS!" The students on TV said.
"was that Duke and Ryou I saw?" Marik asked
"Yeah they help with the morning broadcast" Atem told him as he watched the TV.
Two students on the TV began with news for today. "Hello I'm Raven Tyson!" cheered a girl with long green hair and bright red eyes.
"And I'm Ryou Bakura!" Ryou said nervously. "And this is Domino High's news for today, October 1st Monday bright and early at 8:00am."
Raven started speaking again. "That's right It is October 1st, and you know what that means right" Scary music played off camera. "When witches go riding, And black cats are seen, The moon laughs and whispers, Tis near Halloween.." More scary music played off camera. "You have anything to scary to say about Halloween Ryou?"
"Umm well" Ryou looked at the paper his was holding dropping some on the floor. "Uh let me get those" Ryou said as he bent down to pick up the papers then bumping his head on the table.
"You ok Ryou?" Raven asked.
Ryou came back up holding his head and looked at the camera. "Yeah just dropped some papers" Ryou looked at the papers. "Ok...Here we go...Uhh There's has been a great amount of spray paint missing from the art room. Mostly red and um... oh yeah all Theater Arts classes will not be meeting in the Auditorium but in the computer room, and...uhh...lets see here." Ryou said as he looked at the papers he held and dropping them again. A mumbling voice could be heard off camera causing Ryou to suddenly look up at the camera. "Oh ok I'm being signaled to move onto the weather so now for Cloud KC with the weather," Ryou finished pointing to the left.
"Other way." A voice off camera snapped.
"Oh Yes she's over there." Ryou said nervously as he pointed to the right.
a girl with long brown hair appeared on the TV. "Good morning everyone!" she said cheerfully "All through the school day it will be cloudy with a 30% chance of rain. A wind shield of 24 miles per hour and a low of 67 degrees to a high of 82 degrees. Tomorrow it will be raining and it will be raining hard. Bring your umbrellas!" Cloud said. "Now time for Duke Devlin and Jessie Sapphire with your announcements and what's new with clubs."
Duke started first. "Concert Band practice will be finished 15 minutes early so be sure to have your rides arranged. unfortunately do to a blender accident the smoothie shop in the cafeteria will be closed till further notice, And Today detention will be held on the second floor in room 2-C but incase anyone gets lost just follow Joey Wheeler who is a regular in detention."
Everyone laughed except for Joey who yelled at the TV. they were hushed by the teacher and went back to watching the TV where there was now a red headed girl on the screen.
Jessie started. "Soccer try outs are being today after school if anyone is interested. The girls basketball team is having a match today and will be traveling to Avalon High, the bus leaving at 9:30am. And finally the Battle Of The Bands will take place this Friday, Now as everyone knows the Battle Of The Bands takes place every year during the first Friday of October, which I always thought was pretty weird and I'm not the only one who thinks so..." A voice could be heard off camera as Jessie looked at the person behind the camera. "Well as I was saying." Jessie continued. "As you all know, well except for the Freshman who don't know, the winning band gets to play at the annual Halloween festival and at any other school event or dance for the rest of the school year. And In case you didn't already know I, Jessie Sapphire and my band Team Rocket will be playing. I'll be rocking the Drums! We'll kick our competition's butts! I'm especially talking to you Ninja Assassins! I mean seriously what kind of band name is that anyway!" Jessie was really getting started. "Not to mention your music sucks."
Raven could be heard off camera. "Jessie! Stop It!" She wouldn't shut up until Cloud dived over on top of her and covered her mouth. Then started dragging her away. "Hey I'm not done yet!" Jessie shouted.
"Um, well that's it for the news today," Raven said.
"Yeah… see you next time I guess" Ryou said awkwardly.
"Well that was an interesting broadcast." Miss Mindy said as she turned off the TV. "Ok class, now I want everyone to open up their books to chapter 5 and solve the problems, towards the end of class we will compare answers, you may also work in groups if you would like."
"So Marik now you going to tell us what you are doing here?" Joey asked as he sat down behind Marik.
"Well it was last month when Ishizu got a call from the Domino Museum, they offered her a job. They have actually been wanting her to come work at the museum for a while and this was their third time calling her and she finally decided to take it. So last week Ishizu came down here to search for a place to live and found a nice little three bedroom home close to the museum, I came here on Thursday to get me registered for school and get my uniform. Odion is still in Egypt packing up the rest of our stuff and shipping it out to us while we are still setting things up at our home."
"If you got here on Thursday why didn't you call us up to hang out?" Yugi asked.
"Well I wanted to surprise you guys and we had a lot of unpacking to do." Marik said.
"You should have called us up anyway, we could have helped you guys unpack." Joey said.
"That's ok, we actually had some help from our next door neighbors, Raven and her family." Marik said
"The Tyson Triplets?" Joey asked.
"Yeah, me Sparrow and his dad dealt with the heavy furniture while Ishizu, Raven and Robin dealt with unpacking the boxes." Marik explained. "And then when we weren't unpacking I hung out with the Tyson Triplets at their place and played video games."
"Glad to hear your already making friends." Yugi said.
"Hey Atem, you alright?" Joey asked. "You've been awfully quiet."
"Yes I'm fine." Atem said quietly. "I was just thinking...umm...how is Ishizu, is she liking her new job."
"She loves it, her first day was Friday and she is already getting along well with her co-workers." Marik said.
"That's good." Atem said quietly. Before anyone could say anything Miss Mindy walked up to them.
"So since you four have been sitting here talking I'm assuming you solved all the problems on chapter 5 and are ready to share your answers?" Miss Mindy asked.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
"I can't believe Miss Mindy gave us a weeks worth of homework." Joey said as they walked down the hall to their next class.
"I know, my first day of school and already I have tons of homework." Marik said.
"Hey Marik is that you?" Tea asked
"Do you know anyone else with sandy blonde hair?" Joey asked as Akefia, Ryou and Teawalked up to them.
"Hey Marik." Ryou greeted.
"Hey Ryou, I enjoyed your news report." Marik said.
"Thanks" Ryou said. "I usually just help write the news reports, the girl that was supposed to co-anchor with Raven never showed and they decided to put me in last minute. I must have looked like a nervous wreck."
"No you didn't" Tea said. "Once you calmed down, You looked like a professional news reporter."
"Thanks Tea." Ryou said
"So anyway." Tea started and looked at Marik. "Yugi texted me during class that you have been here since Thursday, why didn't you tell us that you were moving here?"
"Cause I wanted to surprise you guys." Marik said.
"Hey guys we should get going to our next class before the late bell rings." Ryou said.
"Ok, we can talk on our way, what's your next class?" Tea asked.
"I have Art Class."
"That's awesome, the 6 of us have class together."
"Well who doesn't have class with us?" Marik asked.
"I don't." Joey answered. "I have Chemistry class with Tristan and Duke, I'll let them know you are here." Joey said and then walked away.
"We should get going to." Tea said and they headed towards their class.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
The five of them made it to Art Class and were heading in when Marik bumped into someone causing them to drop their books. "Oh I'm so sorry" Marik said as he picked up the other students books, he stood up to give the student their books and noticed it was Sparrow and Raven Tyson.
"That's ok I wasn't watching where I was going" Raven said and then blushed when she noticed it was Marik. "Oh, hey Marik."
"Hey Raven." Marik said who was also blushing. "Here's your book."
"Thanks." Raven said as she took the book.
"So Marik, how is your first day of school going?" Sparrow asked.
"Good." Marik said. "And a bit nervous."
"I know the feeling." Raven said "being the new kid in town, Starting a new school and not knowing anyone"
"Well actually I know Yugi and his friends" Marik pointed at Yugi's desk with Tea and Atem standing at his desk talking to each other.
"Well that's good." Sparrow said. "I remember us moving here from America when we were 13, it was so hard having to learn a new language..."
"Excuse me you three, the bell just rang so would you please come in and take your seats." Instructed the Art teacher.
"Sorry Miss Zoe." Raven said as she came in.
"Excuse me but where do I sit?" Marik asked.
"Aww yes you must be the new student, Marik is it?" Miss Zoe asked as she looked at her clip board. Marik shook his head yes. "Ok then why don't you sit in the fourth row right next to Miss Tyson."
"Ok class." Miss Zoe started after Marik sat down. "since it is Halloween season you are going to paint a Halloween portrait, it can be a creepy graveyard, the body of a man with a pumpkin head, a vampire fighting a werewolf, anything your mind can think of, now does anyone have any questions before we get started" Atem raised his hand. "Yes Mr. Motou."
"What is Halloween?" Atem asked but soon regretted it cause everyone in the room was staring at him and whispering to each other while a few others were snickering at him.
"You don't know what Halloween is?" Miss Zoe asked.
"No." Atem said quietly.
"They don't celebrate Halloween in Egypt?" Miss Zoe asked.
"Umm, no." Atem answered.
"Well that's interesting." Miss Zoe said. "What about you Mr. Bakura and Mr. Ishtar, you two are also from Egypt, do you know what Halloween is?"
Everyone was now looking at Akefia and Marik as they shook their heads no. "Seriously." Said Sparrow. "Where you three raised underground your whole life."
"Shut up Sparrow, Only the blonde one was." Akefia said. Everyone laughed thinking he was joking.
"Calm down everyone." Miss Zoe said. "Obviously there are many countries that don't celebrate Halloween and Egypt is one of them. Would you three like to know what Halloween is." Atem and Marik both said yes. "Ok then." Miss Zoe started.
"Halloween or also known as All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is a yearly celebration observed in a number of countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It initiates the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints, martyrs, and all the faithful departed believers. the traditional focus of All Hallows' Eve revolves around the theme of using "humor and ridicule to confront the power of death.
Typical festive Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (or the related "guising"), attending costume parties, decorating, carving pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, eating lots of candy corn, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories and watching horror films. In many parts of the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles on the graves of the dead, remain popular, although in other locations, these solemn customs are less pronounced in favor of a more commercialized and secularized celebration. Because many Western Christian denominations encourage, although most no longer require, abstinence from meat on All Hallows' Eve, the tradition of eating certain vegetarian foods for this vigil day developed, including the consumption of apples, colcannon, cider, potato pancakes, and soul cakes."
"Does that help you three understand the holiday." Miss Mindy said.
"A little bit." Atem said.
"if you three want to learn more then you can look up the information yourselves in the library or online which will help explain more about Halloween."
"I have a question." Akefia said. "How or why would they turn corn into a candy." A few students snickered at his question. "I enjoy corn but I doubt it tastes very good as a candy." Some of the students started to laugh a little louder.
"Come on man." Sparrow said. "You seriously have no idea what Candy Corn is?"
"Well from what I hear you have no idea how to please a women." Akefia said causing everyone to burst out laughing.
"Quiet down everyone." Miss Zoe picked up a bowl of candy corn from her desk and Walked over to Akefia's desk. "Candy corn is a candy most often popular primarily around Halloween. It's basically made primarily from sugar, corn syrup, artificial coloring and a few other ingredients that make them delicious." Miss Zoe held the bowl of candy out to Akefia. Akefia looked at the bowl as if he was being offered poison. "Go Ahead, take a piece." Akefia slowly reached out and took a piece and slowly put it into his mouth as everyone watched with such anticipation.
"It's sweet." Akefia said and then took a handful of candy corn.
Miss Zoe laughed then went to Marik's desk. "What about you Mr. Ishtar." Marik looked at Akefia who was munching on the candy corn and then looked back at the bowl and took a handful himself. "And what about you Mr. Motou, would you like some." Atem looked at Akefia who had a mouthful of candy corn and was surprised when the tomb robber gave him a thumbs up. Atem took a handful and put a piece into his mouth.
"It's delicious." Atem said.
"Welcome to Halloween boys." Miss Zoe said as she walked back to her desk. Alright now everyone get to work on your paintings and to be fair I'll be offering Candy Corn to the rest of you." A few of the students cheered.
As everyone else was painting away, Marik just sat there staring at his drawing pad, he had no idea what to draw. He looked over at Akefia who was painting what looked a giant candy corn with big sharp teeth, angry eyes and a mans leg sticking out of the candy corns mouth. He looked at Tea who was painting a Skellington and a ragdoll holding hands. He looked at Atem who was painting a pyramid with giant spiders climbing all over it, Yugi who was sitting next to Atem was painting a kuriboh wearing what looked like a dark magician costume and holding a trick or treat bag. He then looked at Raven who was painting a vampire wearing a hooded cloak with dark red eyes sinking its fangs into a women who is in a lot of pain, she then noticed Marik was watching her. "You like watching people paint or do you just like watching me paint." Raven asked making Marik blushed.
"You just seem really focused on your painting." Marik said. "It's interesting." Marik said. "You used a lot of red for the blood."
"Thanks." Raven said. "So what's wrong with you, having trouble coming up with something."
"I'm just not sure what to paint."
"Like Miss Zoe said, just whatever comes to mind, whatever you are thinking of right now." Raven told him.
Marik thought for a moment then turned back to his board and began painting. Raven watched what he was painting. He painted a cemetery with a red eyed Raven sitting on a tombstone and in the distance was another Raven with purple eyes sitting on a tree branch holding a rose in it's beak. "It looks like the painting has a story."
"It does, the purple eyed raven in the tree wants to give the rose to the red eyed raven on the tombstone but he's to nervous to cause she's so beautiful and is afraid she'll turn him down." Marik turned around to look at Raven who was smiling.
She was about to say something when a girl with long orange hair walked up to Marik. "Hey there, cutie." She said.
"Hey there uhh..."
"My name is Cassidy, Cassidy Maximus."
"Maximus, sounds like a rich persons name."
"not as rich as Kaiba though but yes I'm rich."
"Just not rich with manners." Raven said quietly
"What Was that you said miss gothic freak."
"That wasn't a really nice thing to say!" Said Tea who was sitting next to Raven.
"she's right that wasn't nice" Marik said to her.
"Sorry. I meant nothing by it." Cassidy smiled slightly. No guilt was evident in her eyes. "I like your painting." Cassidy said as she grabbed his hand and started rubbing it. "What else can these hands of yours do besides paint?"
"Uhh, well they are good a driving a motorcycle." Marik said nervously. Cassidy was starting to make him feel uncomfortable.
"You own a motorcycle?" Cassidy asked. Marik shook his head yes. "Then how about tonight you take me for a ride to the beach, I know a secret area where we can make out on your motorbike."
"aren't you going out with the guy I saw you walk in with." Marik looked to the back of the class room at a student with short blonde hair who was just texting on his cell phone. "I saw you two walking in holding hands and kissing."
"Oh that's Butch and all he is to me is a friend with...benefits." Cassidy said. "So I'm as good as yours."
"That's good to know but I think I'll pass." Marik said as he pulled his hand away from her death grip.
"I'm probably just making you nervous." Cassidy said as she rubbed his cheek. "I'll give you some time to think about it." Cassidy looked at Raven who was watching her, she smiled and leaned down giving Marik a peck on the cheek before walking to her seat.
Tea suddenly spoke startling Marik out of his thoughts. "Hey Marik.."
"Yes?" Marik responded.
"...I hope your not going to consider going out with that girl?" she asked.
"Of course not." Marik said. "I already told her no."
"Well sadly the school whore doesn't understand no." Raven said
"Is that true?" Marik asked.
"It's true." Ryou said. "She's slept with almost every guy in the school, she even slept with Akefia."
"You slept with her?" Marik asked.
Akefia shook his head yes. "Why do you look so ashamed?" Atem asked. "You slept with her three times."
"The third time was in my bed." Ryou said.
"Would you both shut up." Akefia snapped. He looked at the blue haired girl sitting next to Tea who was listening in on the conversation but she quickly looked away and went back to her painting. He looked back at Marik. "She's just some skank I screwed, I'm done with her and now looking for another skank to screw."
"That's charming." Atem said. "Is that how you get the girls to jump into bed with."
"Did you sleep with her?" Marik asked Atem.
"No way in hell would I sleep with her after the damn tomb robber has been inside her."
"So I'm guessing that means you told her no?" Marik asked.
"Yes but like Raven said she doesn't understand no, she still keeps trying to get into my pants."
"Alright everyone, class will be over in about 5 minutes, lets quickly clean up and put our paints away." Miss Zoe said. After everyone put their painting supplies away the bell rang ending class.
Akefia followed the blue haired girl out of the class room. "Hey Aurora."
Aurora stopped and looked to see who called her name. She wasn't to happy when she saw it was Akefia. Akefia just stood there staring at her. "Is there a reason why you called my name?" She asked in her thick French accent.
"I...I was...just wondering if I could walk you to our next class?" Akefia asked.
"Why?" She asked.
"Cause I want to..."
"Get into my pants?"
"What?"
"That is what you want isn't it?" Aurora asked. "To get into my pants, your looking for another skank to screw and you seem to think I'll be the next one."
"No that's not it at all." Akefia said.
"Then why do you suddenly want to walk me to class?"
"Cause I..."
"Cause you thought I would be an easy lay like my cousin Cassidy?" Aurora said. "It really pisses me you know, I got here two years ago and right away everyone assumed I'm a dirty French whore cause I'm related to the school whore and cause I'm French. And lets not forget how fast rumors flew about me sleeping around with everyone."
"I don't believe the rumors." Akefia said. "I know your not a whore, you are very different from your cousin, your a beautiful princess and deserve to be treated like a princess."
Aurora smiled and got closer to Akefia. "You are so full of shit, I know this is just some trick to get me into bed, all the guys have tried sweet talking me to get into bed with them and I turned them all down just like I'm turning you down, so I'm sorry Mr. Tomb Robber but you aren't invading my untouched tomb so easily." Aurora then quickly turned and walked away. Akefia just sighed and walked to class.
"Did you really mean that?"
Akefia turned around to see Tea and Yugi. "How long have you been there?"
"Long enough to wonder if you really do like her or just want to invade her untouched tomb." Tea said.
"Why were you following me?" Akefia asked.
"We weren't following you, we have the same class." Tea said. "So did you mean what you said about her looking like a beautiful princess."
Akefia quickly looked away as he blushed. "Why does it matter to you what I think of her?"
"Cause I can tell you really like her and want to get to know her."
"Yeah well she doesn't want to get to know me." Akefia said quietly.
"I could talk to her for you." Tea said.
"Why do you want to help me get some girl." Akefia asked.
"Cause she's not just some girl to you." Yugi said.
Both Tea and Akefia looked at Yugi with a questioning look. "She resembles someone you knew 3000 years ago." Yugi said.
Akefia stood there trying not to look so shocked. "What makes you say that."
"Well, Ryou said that your guys mind link was open when you bumped into her last month and that your emotions went crazy, you were saying is it really her and then he said you had a memory of a girl who looked like Aurora but she was dying in your arms." Yugi said.
"Akefia is that true?" Tea asked. "Was she someone you knew 3000 years ago?"
"THAT'S NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS!" Akefia yelled. "She's just some skank I'm trying screw." Akefia stood there breathing heavily, he then turned around to see a very pissed off Aurora.
"I need to get into my locker, your standing in front of it, please move."
Akefia moved out of the way and just stood there quietly looking at the ground as Aurora put her books away in her locker and pulled out her World History book then slammed her locker shut. "Tea, Yugi." She said to them before she walked away.
Akefia looked up them, giving them a very pissed off look before he walked away.
Meanwhile on the other side of the school.
"Ryou are you ok?" Duke asked. "Why did you shudder?
"I don't know." Ryou said.
