Chapter 2

Me and Yugi stood there while we were surrounded by the guy's team. They all laughed and snickered. The leader stood there with a smirk across his face and went to punch Yugi.

I have no idea what was going through my mind at this moment. I don't think anything was. I thought I was stuck to the ground in shock from when they surrounded us. But I was wrong. I had felt pain go through me as I felt a fist hit my stomach. I gasped in pain as I realized I had jumped in front of Yugi to protect him from the punch. Yugi screamed my name as I had spit up some blood but I got up and stood in front of him.

This has been the stupidest action of mine yet it seemed like.

-Yugi POV-

I screamed at my sister as she jumped in front of me as the man's fist came towards me.

"Leah stop! I can take the beating! You can't!" She didn't seem to hear me. She was a few months older than me but she was very fragile... At least that is what father said. I can take the beating but she can't. I truly only wanted her safe but she didn't seem to listen. She fell on her knees and spit up blood. I screamed as that happened.

"Shut up kid!" I heard one of the teenagers say. I ignored him. I grabbed Leah's arm and tried to pull her back, but she didn't budge. She seemed different all of the sudden. She seemed taller by an inch and her hair was different. It was a little long it seemed.

But that changed when another punch came. No, she wasn't different, she was the same. Protecting me even though she's the one in trouble.

"Leah, please I don't need protection. You're the one who does."

-Leah POV-

I couldn't hear Yugi scream at me. I could only hear my heart beat in my ears. It rang loudly. I started to black out as I stood for a split second. Then another punch came. They kept coming, one after another. I couldn't stand anymore.

I fell to the ground on my side and held my stomach. I all of the sudden was picked up by force. Not anyone's arms; but a foot.

He had kicked me in the stomach and lift me in the air with his foot. I gasped as my breath was taken out of me. He picked me up and started punching me. Then I fell as he walked away from me and over to Yugi. I heard him draw a knife and heard Yugi's footsteps slowly back up.

'You will not harm Yugi!'

I slowly got up and pulled myself over to Yugi. I stood behind the man as he went to slash at Yugi. I had jumped onto his back and tightened a grip around his neck with my arms. I heard him choke but I didn't stop. With all the voice I could find I yelled harshly. "YOU WILL NOT HARM YUGI!" He continue to try and get me off but I would not. I saw Yugi watch with fearful eyes. I could not kill someone in front of Yugi... Before I knew it I loosened my grip. I shouldn't of done that.

Just as I loosened my grip he pulled his knife behind him and slashed at my face. I gasped and he threw me in front of Yugi. My face hurt and stung all over. I couldn't move. 'Did he break me? Am I broken?! I-I can't be!' I saw Yugi with fearful eyes in front of me too scared to move. Then blood ran in front of my eyes and I blacked out. 'Don't hurt him! Please Ra, protect my brother!'

-Yugi POV-

I froze as I saw my sister be thrown from choking the leader of this group. I saw her land in front of me after being cut from him. A long mark where he cut her went from above her left eye over her nose and down to her right cheek below her right eye. blood began to ooze out of it. I froze. I saw her glance at me with the look in her eyes saying "run". But I couldn't. Just seeing her like that.

I ran over to her.

"L-L-Leah?"

No response.

"Leah?! LEAH ANSWER ME!" No answer.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.

"Simple self-defense." He snickered.

I jumped up and held my hands into fists in defense. He laughed at me. "So you really think you can hurt me shrimp?" "You hurt her so I have to protect myself!" He laughed again.

He ran up and punched me in the face. I fell backwards. All of the sudden I looked up and saw Leah begin to stir. "Leah?" I whispered quietly to myself. She got up and stood taller than normal. just like before she had longer hair and the tips were more like a purple. 'Like my hair... Almost.' Her eyes were in a more angrier position, she had dark purple eyes. Her necklace... glowed? She wiped away the blood from her face. I could see her bangs over her eyes were longer. She was different just like before. What happened? I'm not sure but she seemed darker. Like a shadow she swiftly moved behind the man.

"Care to play a game?" Her voice was different too.

The man screamed and turned around. Leah had a creepy smile on her face. "Well? Do you want to play a game?"

"B-but I t-thought y-you were o-out cold?!" She grabbed his knife and held in her hand, "Hmm, this will work." She walked over to the wall. "Well? Are you playing or not?" He frowned. Then smiled and nodded. Fine I will play. But what do I get if I win?"

Leah smiled and said, "Whoever looses will lose something dear to them." Then she pointed to a girl that sat in the back of the ware house. "If you lose, you will lose your dear girlfriend. If I lose you pick what I lose now." Yugi gasped. 'It would be me!'

They man smiled at pointed at me. I couldn't move. I glanced at Leah. There was a little bit of shock in her eyes, but no emotion on her face that was obvious. Leah only nodded in agreement.

"Who will go first?" She suddenly spoke up. "Well what's the game?" He didn't seem like he really cared. "Let's decide who will go first, first. He nodded not caring. They did rock, paper, scissors. Leah won so she was going to go first.

"One of us must stand against the wall like this," she stood against the way with her back to the wall, "while the other one must stand right her with the knife." She then walked eight feet away from the wall. "We must throw the knife and it haves to hit the wall above their head. If you hit them you lose. If you cheat you will receive a penalty game. Ready?" He nodded gulping.

He then stood against the wall. Leah stood eight feet away like before. She tossed the knife in the air and caught it with her eyes closed. She aimed then threw. It sped like a bullet down to the man. It hit the wall perfectly above his head.

He was sweating out of nervousness. It had just missed him. He calmed down and grabbed the knife from the wall and walked over to where Leah was. Leah then walked over to the walk and stood just how he was but perfectly calm. He threw it without even aiming. It hit the wall even closer above her head then what it was from his. "Good throw." She commented but he sighed in relief.

Leah grabbed the knife and threw it as he stood against the way. It almost hit him.

She glanced back at me. A look of confusion as if she didn't know me for a second. Then she smiled as I was too scared to even reply. The guys holding me where I was were ruthless bullies who wanted to hurt me. They were scared every time someone threw.

After about five minutes off this game it came to the guys turn again. He smiled this time and said. "This game has been going on for a while now. Shouldn't we end it? By ending your LIFE!" He shouted the last word loudest as the knife came whirling towards Leah's heart. She didn't move. Just smiled. Did she WANT to DIE?!

At the last second she jumped into the air as the knife hit the wall. She landed safely in front of the wall and said, "You have shown your true self. A ruthless bully who wants to kill children. You have lost and cheated. Now time for your penalty. All you want is a bloody path of destruction. You will get that."

All of the sudden a golden Egyptian eye appeared in the middle of her forehead. It glowed and she pointed at him. "This is your own destruction you will see." Then a bright light appeared. I had to close my eyes it was so bright. When I opened them I saw the leader on the ground struggling as if he were in a pool of water or something sticky. All his guys ran over to him and he yelled. "BLOOD! THERE'S BLOOD EVERYWHERE! HELP! HELP! I'M DROWNDING IN IT HELP!"

One of his guys grabbed him and yelled, "Usio, there is no blood!"

Usio yelled, "YES THERE IS YOU'RE-YOU'RE COVERED IN IT! HELP!" Then Usio looked at his girlfriend, he then yelled, "YOU! YOU DID THIS TO ME! I WILL KILL YOU!" I looked into their leader's eyes and saw blood in his eyes, pain, suffering. I stepped back in fear. I felt a hand on my shoulder and jumped.

I stepped forwards but I couldn't the hand held me there. I looked up and saw Leah standing there but her eyes looked at him and I could tell she was a very far distance away from me. I was scared of what game she played and what curse she laid on Usio. Leah then spoke up and said, "Every time he looks at that girl he will think it is me, he will keep trying to kill her until she is dead, once she is the effect of the penalty will be done and he will see normally." Before long I realized we were staring directly into each other's eyes. She looked at me with dark purple eyes and then she smiled and her eyes turned dark blue and she was normal and she began to fall and she passed out.

I caught her before she fell and I carried her home. She needed to rest after what she did. To Usio. What did she do? 'W-what's wrong with my sister? What did she do to that man, Usio. And what did those words mean? They sounded way wiser then how old she was. I have to find out.'
