Author's notes: Hello, here is the next chapter, and it is a little long, but it's worth it, for part of the story is in, dadadadadada the Baby Panda's POV.
Yugi: Hello everyone. -winks in a extremely cute manner-
Atemu: Yuuuugiiiiiiiii! -glomps Yugi for being so cute while fighting off readers who want a piece of his hikari-
Toshiro: Well, at least we have the chapter done. Hashira doesn't own anything but her OCs and ideas. Enjoy while I rescue my prince from a pharaoh and the readers.
"We're moving?!" Hashira asked with wide eyes after the Ishtars left.
"Yes, the ranch isn't doing that well, and the Ishtars have offered to help us move to Domino Japan. We're moving at the end of next week ." Her dad said.
"Don't worry dearie, you won't lose your pets, the Ishtars will take care of them and then when we go to our new home." Her mom said.
"It is lucky that we all know some Japanese." Her dad said.
Hashira ran out the door toward the horse barn and right into Sadakat's stall. Hashira then collapsed on the ground and cried with her hands to her eyes and her face to her knees. The animals rushed in with worry at how the girl they always protected was crying.
Horus hopped onto her shoulders and cawed at her, trying to get her to respond, Cleopatra tried to rub up against her hand, trying to get the girl to pet her head, Anubis tried to lick away the tears to no response and Sadakat nudged the girl for a response to no success.
After a while, Hashira finally lifted her head, tears were streaming down her face, and in a monotone voice, she said, "We're moving. We aren't going to stay in Egypt anymore. We're moving to Domino Japan."
The animals had, as shocked as they could show, faces on and Anubis tried to lick away more tears, before she finally opened up her eyes. Her normally bright ruby eyes, were more red and bloodshot and looked empty.
๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐พ๐๐ฒYugi's POV๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐พ๐๐ฒ
I was so glad when Yami(I still call him Yami even though I know his name is Atemu) decided to stay in this world because of me. I pretty much glomped him and started kissing him frantically and wouldn't let go. But, when I saw Toshiro's face, I knew that we shouldn't be celebrating yet. Though, when Ishizu said that they were going to stay in Egypt for a few days, I knew that they were going to talk with Hashira, I hope that she is doing okay after all these years. Anyway, after the tomb collapsed and we all were happy again, Yami, Bakura, and Marik, all dragged us off to explore how much Egypt has changed since the end of Yami's reign, though I could tell that Kaiba, even with his annoyed face, was interested too.
Anyway, three days later and we had finally got back to Domino when we got a call from Malik and Marik. When I heard the phone in the game shop ringing, I picked it up with a yawning Yami following me with a hungry look in his eyes.
"Hello, game shop." I answer like I always do, using the light magic I recieved after I got my memories from my past life back, to keep Yami's arms off of me, Ra he is enjoying having a separate body without the puzzle a little too much.
"Hey Yugi, it's us Malik and Marik!" I hear their voice as I turn it to speaker so Yami will pay attention to them and not me.
"Hey guys, how did it go at the Akana's house?" I ask and Yami finally listens because it concerns Hashira.
"Absolutely fine-she scared the shit outa us." I heard their voices say at the exact same time, though I could tell which one said what.
"Malik, how did it go with Hashira?" I ask and I could hear something I couldn't make out, before the sound of a whack.
"Well, when we went to see Hashira in her horse barn, at first it was quiet, but then we heard her voice outta no where and jumped what felt like twenty feet in the air, we turn and see her with a hawk on her shoulder and then we were growled at by a Pharaoh Hound she had named, Anubis, then when we answered that we were two of the blonds she saw in town earlier this week, she jumped in the air and landed on horse that ran under her, next she gave us a trial where we had to befriend all of her animal before we could earn her friendship and that is when we noticed that her horse, looked similar to her mother 5,000 years ago, so we earned the horse named, Sadakat, her friendship, then we find out she has a freaking full grown adult cheetah named Cleopatra and we befriend the big cat, I wish Ishizu would let me have one(Not going to happen Malik) Okay sis. Then we make friends with her dog, and then her hawk named, Horus, just caws at us and she says that it's the normal behavior, and finally she just says that we earned her friendship, and then we see her go to the horse's stall for a nap." Malik reports and I here an, "Aw come on!" in the phone and can tell that it's Marik.
"Yugi, is the Pharaoh listening to this too?" I hear Marik ask, but it sounds actually serious.
"Marik, I'm here and listening, what is wrong?" Yami asks and I could feel the tension in the air.
"Hashira's parents aren't doing well, so they are moving here to start over, though Hashira will bring her animals to keep herself from having a breakdown. We'll be helping them." Malik said and Yami and me are instantly shocked, Hashira is coming here.
"Guys, where is Toshiro?" Marik asks and we realize that he should be listening to the conversation.
As I am going to say where he is, we here Toshiro from his room, "I'm right here listening to everything, I'll be down in a second."
Typical, he does have extremely good hearing, but that is from what he is, what Hashira was.
"Anyway, the Saturday of next week, they will arrive here in Domino, but we will bring over the animals first so they can get accustomed to there in Japan." Marik says and I wonder why he is going to have the animals come with them instead of with Hashira.
"In case you're wondering Yugi, we are going to take care of the animals so that the family doesn't get fined for trying to take the animals out of the country." Malik says.
"Okay guys, just make sure you don't get eaten first." Toshiro says as he comes over to the phone.
"Alright, 'Personal Bodyguard of Prince Yugi'. We won't get eaten, even though it should be easy, her animals won't attack humans unless they are threatening her. Just keep your emotions in check when she gets here, she doesn't have any memory of you or anyone, she thinks that she is just a normal girl who grew up with exotic animals. She might not even fall in love with you right away like 5,000 years ago, as she is human this time around and doesn't even actually know anything about you but your name." Malik says which the first comment obviously ticks off Toshiro, but when the situation is explained Toshiro grows paler before he leaves back to his room.
"Anyway, see you guys next week. Keep the dragon from killing something without Bakura and me there to kill something with him, and try to keep the Pharaoh off of ya the best you can. Bye." Marik says, making Yami growl in annoyance, before he hung up the phone.
Yami and I look at each and we both have the same thought in our head, 'What is going to happen when Hashira gets here?
๐ด๐๐ด๐๐ด๐Hashira's POV on moving day๐ด๐๐ด๐๐ด๐
I hate that we are moving, I am leaving my homeland and all familiarity for Ra's sake after all. But anyway, I am just glad I get to keep Sadakat and the others. The Ishtars arrive and I sit down on the ground with Horus on my shoulder, Anubis and Cleopatra have their heads on my lap, and Sadakat is nudging my shoulder.
"It'll be okay guys, I'll be fine. We're moving to grandma's place, so I will just have to deal with less time being with you, what with school and the dreaded homework." I try to chuckle to show that I'm okay, but it doesn't and they can see right through it.
The two blonds come over and I ignore them, they may have earned my friendship and trust, but I am going to board my friends myself. As I walk over to the trailer, the blonds have with them, a bird cage big enough for a hawk, a dog cage, a transport cage big enough for a cheetah and an indoor stall. I huff at the fact that these new 'friends' of mine are treating my other friends as animals, they may be animals, but they like to be treated like humans.
"We are sorry Hashira, but you need to put them in the cages." The blonds say, and Malik was his name, hides behind, Marik was his name, when I shoot my death glares, before turning to my friends, and mumbling, "I'm sorry." with blank eyes and they look frighted at me as I turn away with a blank look and get out of the trailer.
I then go and get all of their stuff, Horus' perch and fake mouse that he likes to pounce on, Cleopatra's ball that releases chunks of meat, Anubis' fetching ball and chew toy that looks like a zebra, and Sadakat's tack, before loading them on the trailer with them.
I then go the car, since we don't have a car we do everything horseback, the Ishtars are driving us to the airport. I sit in the car and the two blonds are next to me, making out, which is uncomfortable for me to be near.
"Marik, Malik, stop making out, you are scaring Hashira." A woman with long black hair says and I hear Malik say, "Okay sis."
The two blonds look at me, but I just turn and look out the window. They just wouldn't understand my emotions, I am not even going to show all of my emotions. We start off on the journey toward the airport and I look back at my home in sadness.
During the ride, Malik says, "Hey Ishizu, while we head on our way, I'm going to call the pharaoh."
I don't know what he means with the pharaoh, they haven't been around since Queen Cleopatra committed suicide so that she wouldn't have to be at war against her lover. Either way, I turn off my hearing because of my tendency to listen to other people's business with my really good hearing. Though I do hear that they are talking about me.
We finally arrive at the airport and as I'm boarding, I see the woman, Ishizu I think her name is, talking to the officials about my friends. I board the plane and get a window seat, and luckily, Marik and Malik do not sit next to me, but the woman Ishizu does.
"Hello Hashira." She says as she sits next to me and I mumble a hello before looking out the window at the trailer with my friends in it, and we take off.
"Do not worry, they are safe and will be at the airport when we get there. You like those animals, don't you?" She asks and I nod with a tear slipping down my face at an old memory resurfacing.
"Did something happen?" She asks, probably wondering why I am crying.
"I raised them since they were born, and one day, they saved my life." I say, a little hesitant about opening up, but something about her is having me open up.
Since we have been cleared to be able to get out of seats, Marik and Malik came over to us, probably wanting me to tell the story.
"It was a while back, I was still a kid, about 9 years old. I wanted to take Sadakat out for a ride in the desert, but I forgot to bring enough water and food. Against the heat, dehydration, and hunger, I was starting to feel woozy, my animals had come with me at the time and had started to panic. As I started to faint, I remember a falling sensation, so I assume that I fell off of Sadakat, before blacking out. When I woke up, we were at an oasis, Sadakat was laying down next to me with Horus in the trees above me, and Anubis was swimming in the oasis with Cleopatra licking herself. I knew that I wouldn't survive long on the trip back, plus I was lost. The Horus went to the saddle bag, and used his beak to pull out a piece of paper, and a pen. I realized what he wanted me to do, so I wrote down that I was at an oasis and that I didn't have any food and didn't know if the water was safe to drink. I then rolled up the piece of paper and Horus picked it up in his beak. I told him, 'Horus, please fly back and deliver the paper, and then lead everyone back to me.' He just looked at me before he flew off. After a while, I started to feel dizzy, and then Anubis started barking with Cleopatra chirping at me and Sadakat nudged me. Then, Sadakat started digging in the ground and actually found a Scarab. Since I was so hungry, I actually ate it. All of a sudden, I heard noises to the left of me and Horus landed back on my shoulder, with my parents on horseback riding in. They lifted me up and gave me a water bottle to drink from, before they started to feed me something. Then they lifted me onto Sadakat, I was feeling a little better, and then we rode back home so that I could rest. If my friends hadn't been there, I think I would've died. So, I would hate to lose them." I explained, not really sure why I was telling them this.
"Wow Hashira, that must have been rough, glad you made it. I think I'm starting to warm up to those animals now." Marik said while scratching the back of his head.
"I told my friends in Domino, not to be there waiting for us, because they would meet you at school anyway and we're all going to have jet lag." Malik explained.
"I think I'm going to rest for now anyway." I say with a yawn, before closing my eyes and going to dream land.
Dream start: I see myself in the desert with a jackal, a hawk, a cheetah, and a horse.
"Come on guys, we better get home before master calls for us." I say and I have no clue what I mean by master.
"Okay Lady Hashira. We will escort you home." The jackal says and I wonder how I can understand him.
"Hashira, stop standing there and come on." The really red chestnut mare says.
"Okay mom." I say. 'Why did I just call this horse mom? How can I understand them? Doesn't this mare kinda look like Sadakat.'
"Mom, I think I'm going to ride on your back the rest of the way, I'm tired." I say and she nods.
"Well hop on. Ferar, come on and scout out the area for thieves while we get back home. Gabbar, get us back home with your sense of smell. And Talawat, get ready to fight if necessary." The mare that I keep calling mom says.
I hop on and we ride out to a place that I don't know.
We finally arrive at a horse ranch and the mare says, "Hashira, you coming?"
I nod and all of a sudden, my body turns into that of a horse. :End Dream
I wake up with a start and Ishizu says, "Oh good, you're up, we'll be landing soon."
Author's notes: And I am ending it there.
Toshiro: What was that?
FireWing Pegasus: Oh, Hashira just having a dream and she is totally confused. Also, the arabic names is Ferar is the hawk, and it's name means, Flight or Escape. Gabbar is the jackal, and it's name means, Strong or Proud. And, Talawat is the cheetah, it's name means, Beauty or Grace. I picked them out on the same site I found Sadakat's name.
Toshiro: Oh, okay. Please review on the dream, the names, or Yugi's POV.
