HEY I'm backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk. So, I was reading some other fanfics and I notice a bunch of abbreviations that I didn't recognize (stuff like OC, OOC, which I think means other character and out of character) so could you tell me some abbreviations and what they mean? It'd be reallyyyyyyyyyyy helpful and I shall give you twenty armadillos. Also, I wrote the first part of this chapter sitting at a random desk before my piano lesson, so it might kinda suck. :/ REVIEWWWW
"NOOOOOO get that stuff AWAY from my beautiful golden hair!" Joey cried as he, for the thousandth time, slapped the bottle of hair gel out of Serenity's hand.
"OmiGOSH Joey, suck it up! Do you WANT to face Mom's wrath if you show up at her banquet with your usual chaotic hairstyle? She'd pour some honey on you and eat you for breakfast!" Serenity scolded, as she picked up the abused bottle of hair gel for the thousandth time.
"That container of artificial chemicals will destroy my hair, I swear upon my Duel Monsters deck!" he insisted.
"Yeah yeah, whatever you say Joey. Now hold still!" Serenity instructed while sighing. 'And to think I only have three hours to get myself and the Whine King ready.'
(Two hours and a lot of complaining later)
Joey looked himself over in the mirror. 'Oh my God I look like some priss with a stick shoved up his butt' he thought, mortified.
'This is all Mom's fault.'
Meanwhile, Serenity was also putting on some final touches to her makeup. 'Ah, finally done. That took wayyy too long. Next time I should ask Mai to help me. Although that would include her looking over my outfit, and which would induce her asking me why I have such an expensive dress when I seem to be dirt poor, which would require me to explain me and Joey's complex family history, which is NOT gonna happen.' She nearly fainted when she glanced at her reflection in the mirror.
'Who is that gorgeous girl? Omigosh, is that ME? Do I really look like this?' She thought, amazed. It was true, he baby blue dress flowed gently down her body, hugging he curves in all the right places. Serenity had put her hair in a loose bun, but curled all the extra strands around her face. The makeup she had on was natural and not very noticeable, but it emphasized her big eyes and round, baby face.
'I love Mom'
'I hate Mom I hate Mom I….Holy crap who is that girl?' Joey's eyes nearly popped out when he realized that she was his baby sister.
Serenity simply smiled at her brother's undisguised shock, and did a twirl.
"You like?"
"Geez Ren, you look SICK" Joey spluttered.
She rolled her eyes at Joey's poor word choice. "Thanks, you look ill as well" Serenity giggled, and then glanced at the clock.
"Ah, the limo's probably here. Let's go, we don't need Mom mad at us."
"By us you mean ME, right? 'Cause that's how it works around here…the chicks always stick together…" Joey grumbled.
Joey and Serenity gaped at the gigantic mansion in front of them.
'Damn, I've been to many a mansion, but hot shit none as big as this' Joey thought.
'Wow, this place is gorgeous. Look at the intricate designs on the building. I bet the inside is stunning...' Serenity searched the front gate to see who's beautiful home this is, and engraved on a stone column were the words "Kaiba Residence".
'Oh crap'
"Hey, Joey let's get inside and look for Mom. No need to stay out here! Say, is it a little chilly? Maybe we should go inside. WOW, would ya look at that door! It's soooo pretty but you know what? I bet it's even prettier INSIDE."
He looked strangely at his babbling sister. "Ren, you okay? Let's getcha inside...maybe it's too cold out here for ya."
Serenity nodded happily. 'Please, please, please, please, PLEASE do NOT let Kaiba be inside. Last thing I want is for him and Joey to start fighting again...and what if he sees Mom and us together and tells EVERYBODY about our *family*? PLEASEEEE DO NOT LET HIM BE INSIDE'.
As they approached the door, Serenity pleaded silently with it to NOT open up and show Kaiba's sneering face behind it...
"Hello, sir and madam. Please hand me your coat, and welcome to the Kaiba Mansion." An elderly gentleman who appeared to be a butler greeted them. 'Thank GOD.' Serenity sighed.
"If you proceed down the west wing hall, you will find the dining hall. There, I believe Mr. Kaiba shall greet you.
'ARE YOU FRICKING KIDDING ME?'
"Mr. Kaiba? As in SETO Kaiba?" Joey inquired, as he felt his stomach drop.
"The one and only. May I ask why you are here if you don't even know your host's name?"
"Oh, he only thought that it might be MOKUBA Kaiba doing the greeting - I mean, he's so funny and cute. He'd be a great usher, right?" Serenity saved.
"Yes yes, Young Master Kaiba is quite the socialist. Now, if you'll excuse me. I have more guests to greet. I bid you a good dinner, Madam, Sir." The butler strided off to the door.
"God, Ren. Moneybags is here. What if he SEES us? Scratch that, he WILL see us he's gonna fucking GREET us. It's not too late to turn around and pretend we never came, you know."
"No no, Mom will KILL us. We have to do this. We CAN do this. Right?"
The two realized they were standing right in front of the door to the dining hall.
They looked at eachother, and simultaneously took a deep breath.
"Well, here we go...."
Yeah, I know. Yet again, a horrible place to stop. And the chappie was REALLYYYYYY short too. And I haven't updated in a while. :/ I shall try to do better next time.
