Hi! Everyone. I'm happy that you enjoyed my story. Here's the second chapter. Thank you so much for the reviews I really appreciate it.
Akiza: Thank you and on to the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Carly and I had woken up earlier than usual because father wanted to talk to us about something very important. We were in the dining room area of the house waiting for him to come down stairs and eat with us. Carly was wearing her usual sky blue night gown with beautiful white embroidered figures of flowers and butterflies and her white slippers, her hair up in a messy bun. I was wearing my black night gown with red stars embroidered on my right breast going down on my hip, with matching red slippers, my hair also in a messy bun.
A maid came up to Carly and offered her tea, she accepted kindly and the maid poured it in a cup and came up to me. She asked if I wanted some and I gladly accepted. Carly and I were silent, after and I was starting to get inpatient, I hate waiting. Why does father need to see us anyways? Did he find out something? I hope not.
"Do you know why father summoned us?" Carly asked with a sleepy voice.
"I have no clue." I answered truthfully.
Then steps were heard from the stairs. A figure descended from the stairs wearing formal attire. His silver hair tide in a very low ponytail, his eyes looked tired. Father did not get much sleep at all last night.
"Good morning, my daughters." He greeted. "I see that you are well."
"Yes we are father. How are you this morning?" asked Carly.
He took a seat at the head of the table. "I'm well." He sighed. Then a maid came close to him and asked if breakfast can be served. He nodded in approval.
"Now father what is it you wanted to say to us?" I asked curiosity in my voice.
"Oh yes, thank you for reminding me Aki. Well as you may know, the both of you are already of age to find your selves a suitable husband. I'm going to send the both of you to your uncle in New Domino City. My brother agreed to let the both of you stay in his house." He stated.
"What? How come you're sending us away?" Carly was shocked.
"Because I'm going to be gone for two whole months, and I do not want you two to be alone in this house. Especially when the black rose witch and her companion the raven are out there lose." He explained, he was starting to get mad.
"Great you're sending us to Uncle Robin's place." I said sarcastically. "Damn, that's means our cousin is going to be there." I ended.
"Aki what have I told you about cussing?" he was mad.
"It's not lady like." I answered threw gritted teeth.
"Yes that's correct your cousin Crow will be there. He can show the two of you around and maybe he'll presents some of his friends to the both of you." He took a sip of his coffee.
"But dad Crow is so childish. I bet you that he has not grown out of that state." Carly looked at her father to see what reaction she got from him.
"That does not matter; the two of you will stay with him until I get back. And until then I also expect that the two of you will get a man." He yelled.
This was beginning to bother me, why does he want us to marry so badly? I mean really we still have all our lives left; I just don't want to marry anyone. The men in this century are ass wholes, and screw being lady like, I can do whatever I want to do. Sending us to New Domino thinking that we are going to get a man, but sending us there would also mean I could steal more and help more people out. People in this town were already afraid of me, saying things like I killed people or that I'm a witch. I'm not a murderer and definitely not a witch.
Carly was probably thinking the same thing because her face kept twitching. We weren't prepared for this, and now he wants us to leave. Maybe this will be a good thing, or I could be wrong and it will end up horrible.
"The two of you will leave tomorrow early morning; a carriage will be prepared for your departure, and please do not fight with your cousin." He stated/pleaded.
"Of course not dad I will never fight with him." I said sarcastically.
"Please Aki try to behave." He pleaded.
"I'll think about it. Besides if he does anything I don't like then I can't say what will happened to him." A smirk graced my lips. Carly giggled.
"Carly make sure your sister behaves, she can be troublesome at times, not to mention reckless." He instructed. "And Aki take care of Carly, she can be a bit clumsy at times. Now come here both of you, give me a hug and a goodbye kiss I shall leave today at noon." He got up from the chair and gave each of us a hug and a kiss. "Take care you two." And he walked away toward his study.
Me and Carly sat back down and started to eat breakfast, having a small conversation of nothing but randomness. One we were done we went to our rooms and started to pack all the clothing and accessories, not to mention our costumes, and some necessities and other things. We saw father off to his trip and bid the man farewell. I'm going to miss him actually. After that we went shopping, getting clothes and shoes, a couple of gifts for our dear cousin.
Speaking of our cousin, well I don't hate him, it's just that he is sort of childish and a little perverted. Crow is a tall young man with orange spiked up hair and gray color eyes. He's my age or maybe a year older, twenty two maybe?
The day went by and night had fallen, I and Carly were in our respected rooms and waiting till day break came because we were going to leave really early, it's a two day ride to New Domino. Going to be along ride and I'm sure I'm going to so scream out of my mind. As you know I have little patience.
Two days later
We had just arrived at my uncles' mansion; we were greeted by our uncle and a couple of maids. They had gotten our stuff out ad we were headed towards our rooms, Carly's room was medium size with a queen size bed. It had a balcony that connected to my room. The color was green and had beautiful marble floor. My room was slightly bigger than hers, the color was red and the marble was black, also had a queen size bed.
"I hope the two of you are comfortable in your rooms, I'm so happy we have family over. Well I'll leave the two of you to unpack and I will send a maid to get you when dinner is ready." With that he left the room ecstatic that his family had finally come.
"Well this sucks." I told Carly. She glared at me.
"Remember to be lady like." She growled.
"Yeah whatever."
Carly and I started to unpack our things, I helped her and once we were done she helped me. Then a maid entered Carly's room and told us that we needed to go downstairs to eat dinner. My uncle had company over so we had to dress nicely; apparently Crow had his friends over for dinner and Uncle Robin wants' us to look presentable.
I was wearing a red strapless dress that went up to my knees, a corset that hugged my body and showed my curves and brought up my bust a bit. I was also wearing a small jacket to cover my shoulders. I wore stud earrings and black flat shoes. Carly was wearing sort of the same style of dress except her was bleu.
When we arrive down stairs our uncle accompanied us to the dining room. In the table there were three men sitting down waiting for my uncle and us. One guy caught my attention; he had raven hair with yellow highlights pointing up in the air. His hair resembles a crab, his cobalt blue eyes were captivating and beautiful, and he had tanned skin and looks fairly tall. All three of them stood up and smiled. One being my cousin Crow, and a blond and the raven hair men.
"Please sit anywhere you like." My uncle smiled at us.
"Of course." Replied Carly, her face al red, someone likes the blond man. I giggled at the thought. He got her chair and pulled it out for her and once she had sat down he pushed her in front of the table. I'm going to tease her after this.
"Aki please sit." My Uncle said.
"Yes uncle." I replied nonchalantly. The raven haired man pulled the chair next to him out and I sat down, he smiled at me, I felt heat rush up on my face. Wow he's good looking.
Everyone was now seated and we started to eat, Carly kept blushing at gawking at the blond man.
"My dear cousins, it's been a while hasn't it? I miss you both. Let me introduce to the both of you my friends. This is Jack Atlas." He pointed to the blond man. "And this is Yusei Fudo." The man right next to me turned to me and gave me another smile. I gave him half a smile. "Guys these lovely ladies are my cousins. She is Carly, and she is Aki." He pointed at us.
"Ni-nice tttt-to me-meet y-you." Carly stuttered.
"Yes nice to meet you." I said.
Well here you go; Aki and Carly finally meet the guys. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Next time it will have more action in it a promise.
Akiza: I think it came out Purdy good.
Carly: Yeah.
