Cinderella's Got to Go
Window Shopping
"So dear ol' Seto's hosting a party at one of his many mansions?" asked a femme voice, a regal eyebrow was raised as the question was asked.
"Yes." Replied a masculine voice. "So are you gonna go with me, Devin, or Noah?" he asked an eyebrow also raised.
"Don't do that!" the femme voice giggled. "That's my trademark. Your's and Yami's-' her voice drifted off... She felt his arm snake around her waist. His silent way of comforting her.
They walked in silence for a while until they met up with their Egyptian friend Marik Ishtar. "Hey Bakura!" he called "What are you doin' with Yami's girl?" he asked oblivious about the recent break up with his friends and to Bakura's silent pleading of him staying quiet about Yami.
"Nothing. Just escorting her around town." Bakura replied. "Hey, you going to Kaiba's party tonight?"
"Of course… and I'm taking this very lovely female specimen that is currently linked to your arm." He said. Looking her in the eye and taking her hand and kissing the back of her hand.
A giggle was heard. And then a reply to the statement. "Dear Marik flattery won't get you everywhere!" Another giggle. "Just joking… you may… if you beat our darling Bakura, Devin, and Noah to my door step. That's how I decided I would choose my date. A first come first serve basis."
"You have got to be joking me!" exclaimed Bakura
"Nope!" she giggled. "I'm not joking! I'm totally serious!"
"Damn!" said Marik. "You just love to play us, don't you?"
"No. It's just it's quite hard who to chose. Especially if it the bachelors are quite handsome. If you get my drift." Came the reply. "Here's a good store." She stopped by window and observed the display of clothes. "Eh... not too good."
"So what is our 'lil' baby looking for?" asked both men.
"Something." She replied.
"Something?" they repeated questioningly.
"Yes, something."
"What is this something that you are looking for?" asked Bakura.
"Mmm... I've yet to decide."
"That's great." Said Marik. "So 'Kura what are you wearing to the party?"
"The usual. You know... white collared shirt and black tux, and all that good stuff." He answered.
"Hey are you going with a tie or a bow? And are you wearing your sunglasses?" asked Marik.
"Tie, of course. I don't know about wearing my sunglasses."
"Don't you know that there is gonna be a blinding concert tonight?"
"Nope. Guess I'm bringing my sunglass then."
"Geez... you two sound like girls." She whined. "And to make it worse... you two are men!"
"Hey! Just because we're men doesn't mean we don't wanna look good for all the ladies out there!"
"Oh well now I'm hurt." She retorted in a teasing manner. "Now if you'll excuse meI shall take my leave gentlemen." And she left with a huff.

>>>>>>>>PREVIEW OF CHAPTER 2>>>>>>>>
A black stretch limo pulled up to the driveway and everyone waited for its passenger to step out. After a few minutes of aniticipated silence and no move of the limo's passenger coming out everyone dispersed and headed on inside the Kaiba mansion.
Inside the limo a femme figure was listening to her portable CD player. And when one looked at her closely... pain could be seen as clear as crystals in her eyes.
"Mistress, are you ready?" came a masculine voice from across the limo.
"In a minute Jason... In a minute..."
Static came through the walkie talkie that she had with her and then "We're ready set to go in three Mistress." She gave a small nod and finally exited the limo. As she came she was bombarded with the flash of camera lights.
