Time passes oh so fast
Wednesday. A depressing day. Don't get me wrong, the sun was shining on this lovely June afternoon, but it was the events of this day which made it so desolate. I got home and threw my stuff in my room, I'd sort it later. I changed into some blue jeans but kept my shirt on. then I turned and fell back onto my bed, and i went to sleep. I awoke about 2 and a half hours later at 5 and went and had my dinner. After dinner I went round to Anzu's house and we went to the airport.
"Flight 74934 to Heathrow now boarding." A womans voice over the tannoy said.
"That's me guys." Ryo said grabbing his carry on bag off of the floor. Anzu pulled him into a hug.
"We're gonna miss you Ryo." She said, tears in her eyes.
"I know." he replied fighting back tears. Jou did the same.
"Don't forget about us."
"I wont." He moved along to me. I hugged his neck as tight as I could.
"Are you sure you have to go?"
"I'm sure." He moved to Bakura, who looked very emotional. He grabbed the smaller boy and kissed him passionately.
"Never forget me Tenshi."
"I wont Aijo." He turned and headed for the gate. He gave the woman his ticket, looked back quickly as she checked it and waved as he was ushered through the door. We all watched as his plane flew away, tearful. I think I even saw a tear fall from Bakura's face. Saying our goodbyes, we left the airport. When I got home I went straight to bed. I cryed myself to sleep.
It had been 3 weeks since Ryo's departure. It was the summer holidays. Bakura had the brilliant idea that we should go and see Ryo. So we met at his house to discuss plans.
"So we'll get the money we need and buy tickets. Easy. You guys all have the money, right?" Bakura said.
"Yeah, Seto said he'd pay for us." Jou said with a smile.
"Great. Now when should we leave?"
"Do we even know where he lives in England?" Anzu asked.
"Westminster, in London. At least that's where he said he was going."
"Just asking."
"I suggest we leave as soon as we can."
"Great."
"BAKURA TOUZOKU, GET YOUR ARSE IN HERE THIS INSTANT!" a shrill voice rang from the hall. Bakura stayed where he was. His mother then walked through to the living room. Mrs Touzoku looking nothing like Bakura seeing as she had caramel hair and gold rimmed glasses, though she did have Bakura's piercing crimson eyes. (1)
"WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT LEAVING YOUR SHOES IN THE WAY OF THE DOOR?"
"I can't remember."
"After the many times I've told you to move them, I thought it would have sunk in by now."
"Apparently not."
"Hello Mrs Touzoku." Jou said. What the hell! Idiot.
"Hello Katsuya, Yugi, Anzu." Ha Katsuya, Jou's forename. His real name being Katsuya Jonouchi. "Anyway Bakura, move your shoes!" She glared at him. He stood up.
"Okay." He went out to the hall, a crashing sound was heard and Bakura returned.
"What was that?" She asked.
"I threw my shoes into the cupboard." He replied as he sat back down. Mrs Touzoku sighed and left the room. We then continued to talk about the plane tickets, dates etc, I wont bore you with the details.
We arrived at the airport and waited for own flight to be called. When I heard a familliar voice ringing through the gate.
"Omg guys. I didn't know you were going to England too." Malik called out.
"Marik. What are you doing here?" Yami asked happily as he hugged him.
"Yeah, what are you doing here?" Jou asked, seriously.
"I just wanted to visit one of my friends. Just because they've moved to the other side of the world, doesn't mean I can't still visit them." he replied with a smile. Great so I have to spend my holiday with the whiny Egyptian bitch.
"Where are you staying?" Bakura asked.
"A hotel called Travel Lodge." (2)
"Us too."
"What a coincidence."
"Where are you sat on the plane?"
"36F" Oh you've got to be kidding me. I'm in 36E.
"We've got the rest of row 36."
"Omg it's like fate or something." Or it's like you heard Atem when we phoned him about the details.
"Flight 87149 to Heathrow. Now boarding." A male tannoy voice said. We proceded to walk onto the plane.
"Anzu, Jou, Bakura! You have to trade with me." I said to them on the way down.
"No way. I hate him too." Bakura replied. The other 2 shook their heads. Great 12 and a half hours next to Ishtar.
"Hey Yugi?" Atem asked me.
"Yeah."
"Would you mind trading seats with me."
"Sure." Okay step up from my old seat but Atem had 36D, so I'd be forced to sit next to them.
We landed in England and I discovered 2 things 1) People in England have no manners and 2) England is freezing even in Summer.(3) Malik looked like an icicle, I tried not to laugh as he shivered. But Atem saw this and wrapped his arms around the tanned boy. I turned to Bakura, who looked quite content in the chilly air. A screen on a building flicked from a advert about car insurance to display the temperature. 10°C! (50°f) No wonder it's cold.
"Bakura, how come your not freezing?" I asked him.
"It's not that cold." he replied.
"I-I-It is-s-s." Jou replied shoving another coat on.
"This is actually pretty warm for England." (4) I then spotted a man carrying a sign that read Touzoku. I nudged Bakura and pointed to said man. He smiled and walked over to him. he waved us over and got into the mans taxi and we began a 15 minute ride to Ryo's house. I say house but it was small flat. We reached the door and rang to bell for Ryo's. A girls voice rang over the intercom.
"Who are you?" she asked.
"We're friends of Ryo."
"Who's Ryo?"
"The person who lives here. The name says Mujakina."
"They moved."
"Where?"
"Blackpool, I think."
"Where's that?" She sighed.
"Come up." a buzzing sound was heard and the door unlocked. We walked upstairs to the right door and a blonde girl, of about 13, told us to come inside. Her hair was pulled up into a ponytail, but her fringe was down and covered the left side of her face. This covered one of her teal eyes, but they were also hidden behind black rimmed glasses.
"You say your wanting to get to Blackpool?"
"Yes." Bakura answered.
"That'll take you at least 4 and a half hours by car."
"We haven't got a car."
"That's a problem"
"Why?"
"Because, Blackpool's about 180 miles from here."
"Would we be able to walk it?" Jou asked.
"If you we're continuously walking, in the right direction and at a constant speed. You'd get there in about 3 days."
"How do you know this?"
"My friend lives in Blackpool. I used to too. But them my family moved to Tooting. It's still London. And she would always joke about coming to visit me. But she'd have to walk. She told me last week that I had moved further away, so she'd have to alter her data."
"Thanks. I guess we'd better be going. Wait where are my manners. We don't even know your name."
"I'm Courtney. And you are?"
"Well this is Yugi, Anzu, Jou, Atem, Malik and I'm Bakura."
"I'm guessing your not from round here."
"You'd be right. Japan actually."
"Well, I'm from Egypt." Malik added.
"Cool. So I guess you'll be going then?"
"Yeah. We've got to see Ryo."
"Well if you see Becca, tell her I said hi. She lives on Palatine Rd. Across from the shop. But you don't have to track her down for me."
"It's no trouble." Anzu replied. We turned and left the young girl's flat, and headed downstairs and outside. When I noticed that none of us had our bags.
"Erm Bakura?" I asked him.
"Yes Yugi."
"Where is our luggage?"
"I left them on the porch."
"Well there not here."
"Oh great. Just great, my wallet was in there" Jou shouted.
"Mine too." Atem said.
"OMG my clothes." Malik shouted starting to cry. Oh no, what a catasrophe. My thoughts were interupted when Bakura kicked a lamp post.
"The tickets, my phone and our hotel details were in my bag."
"So we've got no where to stay, no way to get home and no idea how to get to the person who can get us home." Anzu said.
"Pretty much yes." I replied.
"I say we just try and get to Blackpool. Why don't we go this way. The sign says Folkestone (5), that sounds northern."
"Lets go that way then." Bakura said. We then turned and headed towards Folkestone. But little did we know that this decision would be the start of out greatest, and by that i mean biggest, adventure yet.
(1) Mrs Touzoku is a total copy of my own mum, except she doesn't have red eyes
(2) Like a budget hotel. It's alright, got good breakfasts
(3) I actually did reasearch for this Japan's average summer temp is about 30°C (86. 4°f) whereas ours in England is around 15°C (59°f) so yeah major difference.
(4) I read an acticle that said that the temperature of England was colder than the arctic. The temp now is about 6°C (42.8°f)
(5) A place near Dover, on the south coast.
AN: I want to say thanks to Crazyjess09 andEtna Demon Neko for reviewing / subscribing to this story. You guys are totally Opic.
I'm so stupid I put country instead of world. Yeah Becca because Japan and England are in the same country. I have fixed it now.
