Well I guess it's time for some Marik action… you know this is my first time writing something like this. Hmmm… forgive me if it's not too good… jeez, now I'm just freaking myself out…
Chapter 4
He looked straight at me and I found that I couldn't look away. "I have to do this and I will. You can't stop me Jasmine."
"Are you sure?" I ask sadly
"I won't let you."
"Please?"
Marik stood up and put his hand on my shoulder "No." and then he made his way towards the door.
"Are you just going to leave me in here?" I ask as he reaches for the door handle.
"What? Are you going to be lonely?" Mariks smirks.
"When you're locked in a room with nothing to do you do get lonely and bored."
"Do you want me to entertain you then?" His smirk grew.
"I'm not one hundred percent sure I like the sound of that." I eyed him warily. 'His attitude sure changed fast.'
Mariks smirk grew even more as he strode over to the couch. To my utter dismay and surprise he pushed me down by my shoulders till I was laying down flat on my back.
"Marik! What are you doing!" I cried as he maneuvered himself on top of me.
"Doing what I should have done awhile ago, sister." He sneered the word and I knew what he meant. No matter how many times I called him brother he would never be my actual brother. He would always be Ishtar and I would always be Hayden.
I tried pushing on his chest but his position gave him the advantage. He leaned down and with one hand cupped my cheek before bringing his lips to mine.
Nothing prepared me for the shock of the contact. The boy I had always called my brother was kissing me. I don't have much experience in kissing; to be truthful I have none. I spent most of my life hidden away in Egypt and I haven't had time for relationships since I came back to the states. I was unapproachable for a good reason but that wasn't helping me now. Marik has known me for a long time and he knows what makes me tick, he also knows what makes me weak.
I tried pushing on his chest again and he pulled away.
"What is it?" his breath was hot on my neck. "Did you not like it?"
I felt a blush creep onto my cheeks and I cursed my female body.
Marik smirked again. 'Oh how I want to punch that smirk off his face.'
"So you did like it~" he purrs into my ear "Then I guess I don't have to stop." He started to lean again.
"Please." I was almost crying "Please stop."
"Why?"
"I don't think of you this way."
"Well then I'll have to make you."
"Marik you will always be my brother." I sob
"What if I tell you that you can never be my sister?"
"Then I'll be sad."
"I don't want you to be sad" Marik stroked my cheek "but you can't be my sister. Not anymore."
"Why?" It was me asking the questions now.
"Because when I think of you I cannot see you as a younger sister…"
Marik leaned down again but I turned my head so that his lips met my cheek.
"That won't stop me." He murmured against my skin. He started kissing down my jaw line.
I felt Mariks control start to slip. With tears still in my eyes I drew energy from his emotions and used it to shove him off of me. He landed with a beautiful 'thud' on the floor.
"You really don't want to give in." Marik sat up, looking at me. He sighed before standing up. "I'll convince you eventually." He ushered towards the door, "You're free to leave; I've said what I needed to say."
I got up off the couch and made my way towards the door. Before I opened it I turned around to face Marik.
"Marik, I want you to know that I was never working with Sister. Our goals were the same though."
I never thought I'd see surprise on his face again as I strode out of the room. I retraced my steps through the hallway and I came to the loading ramp. No one stopped me as I left.
I quickly made my way back to the hotel with my head down. As soon as I was in my room I went to the bathroom, ripping open one of the drawers to pull out my makeup. I applied a layer of cover-up over the bruise and I succeeded in hiding it. I added some blush to my cheeks as extra protection. I didn't want anyone seeing the purple mark.
I left the hotel as quickly as I came; I needed to get out and nab some locator cards before the day was over. I entered the main plaza and sat down on the ledge of the water fountain, waiting for another duelist to come by.
I didn't wait long. A boy that couldn't have been a year or two older walked by looking cocky. I stood up as he walked by but it wasn't me who did the challenging. He turned and strode straight towards me.
"Cool. You'll be my next win." He smirked
"Are you challenging me?" I asked, hands on my hips.
"No duh."
"Fine, you're on."
~Time Skip brought to you by giraffes~
It turns out he wasn't as good a duelist as he thought he was. He didn't realize that using spell cards only powered up my Mythical Beast and kept at it, raising his attack power sky-high. I got his locator card and his best card, Storm Caller.
"Thank Ya'." I smiled as we parted ways.
"Whatever." He scoffed
Not long after I dueled a girl and I got myself a Dark Magician Girl and another locator card. Now I had three, meaning three more to go.
So? What did ya' think? Please leave a review, they help a lot and keep my motivation for writing up :) ~Crystal
