Kuraki-chan: I'd love to thank my usual two; Riv and Adorehim88 for their wonderful reviews(: And then we have Revpreg. Revpreg, that was only the preface you commented on. The intro, if you will. I know it's a slow start, but chapter three is when we start getting into the Yu-Gi-Oh stuff. Shadow wanted Zoey and Dimitri to have a normal start; that's how this story is going to start. But things will start switching over very soon(:

So here's chapter two(:


2: I'll Never Stop Believing.
Zoey's POV.

"You know," Dimitri told me as we walked to school, "if dad ever knew about Jagger, he'd probably go bloody mental."

I blushed a little and my grip on my backpack's strap tightened. "We're just friends, Dimitri."

He snorted. "Whatever you want to call it, Zoe. Or should I call you Luna like your lover does?" He teased me.

"Shut up, Dimitri!" I yelled at him. "He only calls me that because we've both read the Vampire Kisses books and his name is Jagger like Jagger Maxwell and I look like Luna Maxwell."

Dimitri made a face. "Please tell me they have the same last name because they're married."

I groaned. "No you bloody twit! Jagger has a thing for Raven Madison but Raven's already with Alexander Sterling."

"Wait, so Alexander and Jagger Deslile's names come up in this series?" I nodded. "That's fricken weird."

"I'm just glad they call me Luna instead of Raven. That, my dear brother, would mean trouble. Luna is Jagger's sister; Raven is the girl he wants to turn."

Dimitri shook his head. "There's something messed up with all three of you; Jagger especially. Alexander is at least mellow."

"Did I hear my name?" Jagger said as he jumped down from a tree in front of our school. Alexander was then seen leaning against said tree.

"Unfortunately, you did," Dimitri replied. "You're corrupting my little sister."

Jagger put his arm around my shoulders like he usually did. "Awh come on Dimitri, I don't think 'corrupt' is the right term for it."

"Yeah, I think miserably flirting suits fine," Alexander walked over to us, his dark hair over his eyes.

Jagger grimaced and glared at his twin brother. "You are absolutely no help."

Alexander shrugged, revealing his eyes that matched his brother's. "I'm just stating the facts, brother."

Jagger and Alexander Deslile are twin brothers with dark hair like my brother's (who gets it from our mum) and two different coloured eyes: one gold, and one green. They live with Jade and Robert Deslile here in Manchester – their foster family. You see, their mom had to give them away because of personal stuff, but they still talk to their dad which is cool. They apparently have his eyes. I have no idea about the hair however, because apparently their mum is blonde and their father also has light hair.

Jagger huffed. "Come on Luna, we have to get to English. We'll see you two third period."

I hugged my brother saying I'd see him second period for biology and let Jagger walk me to English like usual. He was in my English, History, and French classes; Dimitri was in my bio and gym classes, and the four of us had Algebra together.

I took my seat in the third row like usual and Jagger sat beside me.

Upon looking at the board, I saw that all we were doing today was talking about poetry and possibly starting some if we have the time. But knowing Ms. Blake she's just going to lecture about poetry and poets.

Way too easy.

I write poetry and stories all the time, that's why I'm getting an 'A' in this class and taking English II Honours next year. I was doing pretty well for a freshman in high school.

"Hey Luna?" Jagger asked me before class started.

"What is it, Jagger?" I replied as I doodled in my notebook.

"Since you read, write, and watch all of that vampire stuff, do you believe in vampires?"

I set my pencil down and looked at him with curious grey eyes. "Well that certainly is bloody random. Even for you, Jagger."

He smirked at me. "Just answer it."

I shrugged. "I dunno, I s'pose it would be cool."

"Would you want to be one?"

"With all of these questions, I'm beginning to think you've been reading way too much Vampire Kisses," I laughed.

Jagger looked at me seriously. "Would you, want to be, a vampire?" He repeated slowly.

I was taken back. "Uhm…I s'pose so. I mean, it'd be pretty wicked, wouldn't it?" I smiled.

He merely nodded and looked back to the front of the class.

Sheesh, where in bloody hell did all of that nonsense come from…? I thought.


Dimitri's POV.

I sat in History with Alexander, waiting for Mr. Jameson to arrive. That man was always late.

"Dimitri, watch out for my brother," Alexander said out of no where.

"Alexander, what in bloody hell are you talking about?" I replied.

"Don't think stories you read or television shows you watch are all fake. Expect the unexpected."

I looked at him skeptically. "Is he going to harm Zoey?" He was silent. "Is he going to harm Zoey?" I repeated.

"I am not certain yet, Dimitri. Just be careful; I don't know my brother's true intentions anymore."

-Flashback-

"Is that your sister?" Jagger asked me when we met in seventh grade.

I nodded. "Yeah, he name's Zoey."

Jagger grinned. "She looks beautiful; like a child of the shadows."

I gave him a weird look. "Whatever you say, mate."

-End flashback-

My brown eyes went wide. No, he was just a weird. It's not even possible.

But what if it is…?

Protect Zoey.


Kuraki-chan: Slight references in there; who can find 'em? :D Two references towards The Broken and one towards Yu-Gi-Oh. If you can find them all, I'll PM you with what's going to happen in chapter four (because you're already getting chapter three's preview haha).

That, my friends, is where shit begins to go down. :D


CHAPTER PREVIEW;;


3: All the Things She Said.
Zoey's POV.

Dimitri looked like he was thinking hard about something. "Zoe, think about my middle name."

"Akefia? Why?"

"Mum told me once that it had something to do with dad."

"Where are you going with this?"

"Mr. Jameson mentioned a few names in his fairy-tale."

"Like what?"

"The Pharaoh Atem and his greatest enemy: Akefia Bakura." I looked at him in shock. "And apparently Akefia Bakura had a girlfriend or whatever as well – Kiriki, Lady of the Shadows."

"Dad's name is Bakura, but mum's is Karin. It has nothing to do—"

"Lady of the Shadows, Zoe. Mum goes by Shadow!"

"Bloody hell…"
