WHAT HAPPENED?
BY CELTIC GUARDIAN PRINCESS
A/n: This is only a one shot fic. But if you guys beg enough…
My life seems to be over. I have no purpose any more. As I stand here, looking over the sea, with the knife in my hand, I think about what has happened in the last few days.
I remember when Boss found me, letting me work for him. He was actually like a father to me. I know it may seem strange, but I never was really cared for by my own father. He would leave me alone for days on end, alone. Boss made sure nobody hurt me, even though he was the one who did.
Boss made me go with Sid and Sygore, looking for duelists to eliminate. We found that Joey kid, and the mighty Yugi Mutou. When we told Boss of who we found, he sent Sygore to get Joey, because after Boss led me to the arena, Sygore arrived carrying an unconscious Joey.
I almost defeated him. My zombies were strong, and they destroyed monster after monster. But then Yugi came and helped him out. He told Joey there was a card in his deck that would change everything. He was right, and Joey beat me.
Outside of the cave, we were commanded by Boss to lock the others in. We did so, not wanting to get in trouble. We rested, our arms tired. Boss grabbed Sygore, took his starchips, and threw him on the ground.
Sid and I tried to run, but he caught us, took our starchips, and left us. I was hurt. Sid and Sygore didn't care. They left me.
A breeze chills me, and I pull my jacket closer. It will probably be the last time I feel wind, for I plan to die. Nobody will miss me, or mourn for me. I know it as a fact.
As I place the edge of the knife to my left wrist, I stop, thinking of the good things in my life.
The feeling I had when I found out I was going to the Duel Monsters tournament, came back to me. A mix of excitement, happiness, and fear. I smiled. I liked the feeling.
The first time I fell in love. I considered letting myself live for her. "Her" was the girl that hung out with Yugi. I'm pretty sure her name is Tea. She was so sweet. Her blue eyes always sparkled with emotion. Either shining with happiness, fear, or sadness. But she likes Yugi. She'll never like me.
Then it hit me. Nobody ever cared about me. Sid, Sygore, and Boss were just my fellow eliminators. My father hated me, and Yugi and his friends didn't like me at all, and I have no friends back home. So, I guess I'll die a lonely death.
I placed the knife against my wrist once again, and added pressure, cutting through my flesh. My blood leaked out, running down my arm. A few tears fell from my eyes. I knew it, but I didn't care. I was crying not because of the pain, but knowing I'll never be found, and that no one ever cared about me. I pushed down harder, the crimson fluid running freely.
Moving the knife to my left hand, I cut me right. Then I heard a shout from behind me.
I turned around. There, running down the path towards me, was my love, Tea.
"Bones, what're you doing here? I wa-" she started, stopping when she saw my blood, the knife in my hand. "Bones! Why are you doing this? You don't have to die! You don't deserve it."
I shook my head. "I know. But this is my choice. No body cares about me, so I am ridding this world of myself." My eyes started to get cloudy. I sat down on the ground, breathing slowly.
"Bones, no. You can't die." Tea said, sitting down next to me, putting my head in her lap. I looked into her eyes. They were full of tears. "You can't die, Bones. I love you."
My heart, as much as it was beating, skipped. "I, I love you too, Tea." I whispered.
Tea lifted my head a little, leaning down; she gently placed a kiss on my lips. My first. My breathing grew slower, and she backed away.
"Tea, don't ever forget me. Tell anyone you want about this. I'll see you when you come to me." I told her. I blinked, and my vision was cleared a little. "Don't cry for me." She nodded, wiping tears from her eyes.
I smiled, and closed my eyes. My slow breathing stopped, and my heart stopped beating. I stayed as a spirit, just to see what Tea would do.
She was keeping her promise. She wasn't crying. Then, my spirit left.
I have been dead for five years now, visiting Tea every now and then. She never forgets me in between my visits, or even cried for me. She has kept her promise to this day. Once in a while, I make myself almost whole so she can hug me. When I visit, she tells me about what's happened, and how everyone is. More than once I've told her to ask Yugi out, but she protested. Finally I got her to by threatening to haunt him the rest of his life.
Sometimes, I feel bad about what I did. Tea hasn't told anyone about me, and I don't care. I don't think she wanted to, or she was afraid of telling them I committed suicide.
After five years, one thing still remains in my mind. Why didn't any one but Tea ever care about me? Why didn't I ever have any friends? Did I do something to make them hate me? All I have in my mind is one question. What happened?
