Chapter 1: Domino City
(My POV)
'You were everything, everything that I wanted. We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it. And all the memories, so close to me, just fade away. All this time you were pretending, so much for my happy ending'
I was listening to my recent song on my iPod trying to image how to perform it when I heard a knock.
(Knock, knock) "Miss Robertson?"
"What is it Derek?"
"We got word on our next stop."
"Well...explain just don't stand there."
"Umm, right. Our next stop is in Domino City. Where you are competing in a contest to perform at the KC Ball hosted by Seto Kaiba."
"A contest? We signed up for a contest?"
"Correction Mr. Kaiba bought our way in. He wants only the best of the best."
"Whatever. When do we arrive?"
"In two hours."
Derek left as I thought about the contest. Derek has always been a good manager to me, getting me the best gigs and everything, but letting somebody buy me into a contest, ridiculous. Wait until I meet this Kaiba fella.
(Seto's POV)
"6hours until the contest Mr. Kaiba." Roland, my right hand man informed me.
"Thanks. Now, is this all the constants? These 6?"
"Yes sir. Also, the invitations have been sent out and the decorations have been put up."
"Good. Now leave."
"I think this girl is pretty bro." Mokuba pointed at the screen.
"Well, lets just click on her then. Says her name is Elizabeth Robertson, she is 16, parents unknown, loves the ocean, ex-girlfriend of Siegfried von Schroder, and current single 'My Happy Ending'."
"She sounds pretty cool. What about this girl?"
"Vienna Talia, 18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Talia, loves her daddy business, single, and current single, 'Gravity'. She is kind of cute too"
"You think a girl is cute? We might get more out of this contest then we hope"
"Don't you have homework you should be doing mister?"
"Maybe"
"Then I suggest you finish it if you want to see the contest."
"Yes! I do I do!"
Good kid but, never wants to focus on the important stuff. Better get ready to meet these 3 girls and 3 guys. Hopefully they can sing or this is going to be a total waste of my time.
(My POV)
We arrive at the KC Ball finally and started to unload our equipment. I looked around and noticed that this Kaiba person put a lot into this ball thingy. I started looking at the other constants and noticed Vienna Talia. That little devil. I cannot stand the woman yet she gets invited here of all places.
"Elizabeth! Darling!" Vienna called as she came over.
'Oh no.' "Vienna, what a surprise, you got bought into this thing too. Must have been worth only a penny"
"Oh Elizabeth, always so funny, ha ha. I really don't care if I win this contest or not. All I'm interested in is Mr. Kaiba. He is strong, handsome, bluest eyes, and rich."
"He would be a fool to fall for you."
"Miss Talia and Miss Robertson I assume?" Seto asked walking up to us.
"Why yes I'm Miss Talia" she answered pushing me out of the way. "You must be the powerful Mr. Kaiba."
"Yes I am. I hope you're having a good time and enjoying your time."
I stood there watching them talk and keep talking. I couldn't talk or hardly move, he was so breath taking. I'm not sure how to explain it but, it seems like I've met him before. There is this aura around him that is very strange.
"Miss Robertson?" a guy asked me. I turned around to answer but, he stopped me. "It's your turn mam."
I just nodded my head and slowly walked up on stage still thinking about Kaiba. Why was I feeling like I knew him? So strange. I got up on stage still watching Seto and Vienna talk and laughing. She may actually get that guy, good for her.
'Now singing My Happy Ending, Miss Elizabeth Robertson.' The announcer announced. I slowly grabbed the mic shook my head to clear my mind and started singing.
'So much for my happy ending
Oh, oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
(Chorus)
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
(Chorus)
It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done
(Chorus x2)
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
I slowly stepped back from the mic and bowed, everybody was clapping. I was happy I could get people to clap but, my focus was back on finding Kaiba and Vienna. I quickly took off stage making my way though the crowd looking for them and coming up empty handed. I kept walking around until I bumped into somebody.
"Ow!"
"Oh! I'm sorry sweetheart let me help you up."
"Its okay. Hey! Your Elizabeth Robertson, one of the singers. I'm Mokuba Kaiba, I helped pick out the singers."
"Kaiba? You wouldn't happen to be kin to Seto Kaiba?"
"Yep." he said with the biggest smile. "I'm his little brother."
"Well, could you possibly tell me where he is?"
"Of course. He took that Vienna girl out to dinner because she said she didn't care bout the contest."
"Oh...well did he say anything about the ball tonight?"
"Yes. The ball starts at 8 tomorrow and all must dress very formal and to make sure you win at all cost."
"Me? Why me?"
"I don't know. I just do what my big brother says. Well, I see you at 8, I hope you find a date for the Ball."
"Yeah..."
'Now what? I wanted to talk to Kaiba but, I guess he is more interested in Vienna. What am I doing?! I don't fall for some stuck up rich kid. I'm better off alone...I've seen what stuck up rich kids do...Better go find a hotel and explore the town tomorrow...try to find a dress too...'
End of chapter 1. What you guys think? :) Do you think she will end with Kaiba? Or will Vienna win over his powerful heart?
