Hey guys! it's me again! sorry i took so long! anyways, enjoy!
DIZCLAIMER: Me no own!
SETO KAIBA GLANCED OUT OF HIS window, he watched as the sun slowly cast the shadows into longer and thinner shadows, meaning the sun's time is almost up. Meaning another day is gone, and the fewer days, the fewer hours, and fewer months there will be until the day where he found be forced to give up his freedom by saying three meaningless words, "Yes, I do."
The thought of his own wedding made him shudder, how could his fate be so? What has he done to deserve this? He absolutely DISLIKED Anzu, and his parent's wouldn't budge on hearing his protests.
He's going to be a King soon, should he, Prince Seto, deserve at least a little bit of trust and decline this marriage? Of course, he does! He is the future king! He shouldn't be here just sitting posed like some sort of doll, he was meant to rule! To order, to expand the kingdom!
And his first order would be to send Anzu FAR, FAR, away from him and his kingdom (It wouldn't cause any trouble since Anzu would be happy with his first rule of order). He wished there was some other way….some other way to avoid his marriage with…with her.
Seto sat on his study, and thought and thought, and thought. What could he do? How could he convince his father to cancel his engagement with Anzu? And must he REALLY get married? Can he rule with just himself, and let Mokuba be next in line?
Afterall, what's a mere woman going to do besides providing an heir? He smirked, he thought so, nothing. Absolutely nothing. So it seemed kind of pointless to have a queen.
Seto smirked even wider, maybe THIS would work. Seto laughed and left his room.
MEANWHILES…
"I don't understand," Shizuka said. "What do you mean by come out of hiding?"
Mai sighed, "It's…It's kinda a long story…" She ran her fingers through her long blonde hair, and paced back and forth of the kitchen.
She sighed again and then took a seat next to Shizuka, "You see, when mother was alive, it was her idea to lock you up inside a place-a place where no one will cause you harm, where no one will know who you are….until, the time came."
Shizuka still didn't understand, "Why now? What's so important about now?"
"Because," Mai explained, "It was prophesized a long time ago, that on your eighteenth birthday…you will find true love."
Shizuka eyes widened, "And…my scar….will….disappear?" she whispered.
Mai nodded, "Yes," she said.
Shizuka couldn't believe it. All this time she had assumed that she was doomed to have a hideous scar forever, never find true love….and be alone forever. Yet it turned out….all she had to do was wait.
Who knew? Good things come to those who wait.
"Why?" Shizuka asked, "Why wasn't I told sooner?"
Mai looked away, "I promised mother not to tell…until you were eighteen."
"My fairy godfather…." Shizuka suddenly began, "Did he know? Was he the one who prophesized about this?" she asked.
Mai nodded again, "So now it's time," Mai said avoiding Shizuka's eyes, who didn't noticed.
Shizuka smiled, "I'm…I'm so excited! And scared! I-I mean…I have no idea who to react! Are we going back to our father? The duke? How come I don't remember my father?"
Mai gave her a weak smile, "Calm down, Shizuka! All your questions will be answered….when we get to reunite with our father again."
Shizuka squealed with joy, "Papa! I get to see my father for the first time!"
Mai smiled, but then she frowned, "Too soon," she whispered under her breath as she watched Shizuka singing a new song. "Too soon."
Huh, i wonder what's up with Mai? ANd Seto? How will his speech go? ANwyas? Read n review!
