Evil? Are you orf the trolley?
Chapter 3!
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or Doctor Who, even though that would be epic!
"My sister wasn't evil, please. It would be an insult to evilness. Though what she wanted with those teenage boys I'll never know, thought she batted for the other team. From what I heard the plan sounded stupid, but that's Arabella for you. I didn't even want to get involved, I was only there because I had no where else to go."
-Rosalyn Kensington
(Arabella's POV)
God I'm bored, I hate school, hated it when I was younger and I hate it now, especially in Japanese, these teachers need subtitles. At least the targets are close by, and Berty's at the base, just have to survive the day, then I can leave.
(Normal POV, at the base)
Arabella and Bertram were at the base, just outside Domino. Bertram was typing away at the computer, while Arabella was testing her aim with knives, a door and a picture of Tea. There was suddenly footsteps coming from the small corridor behind them.
"Intruder!" Arabella yelled and threw one of her knives at the door way.
"How did they get in? Intruder window?" A tall brown haired girl asked, in a less posh voice, walking into the room, twirling the knife in her fingers. She smirked and went and sat on one of the chairs in the room. Arabella threw another knife towards the girl who ducked. The knife sailed and hit the wall behind her.
"Sister, to what do I owe this pleasure?"
"You know, just thinking I haven't seen my older sort of sister in a while. So here I am."
"Well you've seen me, now leave."
"Am I not welcome in your scheme? I could help you know, considering I am nearly the same age as the kids you're stalking."
"We're not stalking children."
"The red blinky light that says Yugi Moto says other wise."
"You know Yugi? How, you only got here today, and don't go to the school."
"Psh, no, but now I know you're stalking children."
"Are you done revealing our entire plan Arabella, or are you going to introduce me first?" Bertram asked turning around.
"Bertram meet my half sister Rosalyn Kensington, after mother died father got remarried and had this daddy's girl. Rosalyn, meet Bertram my assistant and technical whiz."
"Nice to meet you." Bertram said looking towards the girl.
"Nice to see my sister finally has an ass. Always was a skinny twig, flat chested too. Though that hasn't changed has it Ella?"
"Hilarious Roz."
"Don't call me that!"
"Then don't call me Ella!"
"It's in your name! So this plan of yours..."
"I swear to god Rosalyn if you tell anyone-"
"Relax I don't want to get involved, I just need a place to stay." Rosalyn rolled her eyes, removed the knife and leant back in the chair.
"They're on the move. All targets at Kame Game shop." Bertram stated looking back to the screen. Just then a faint buzzing was heard from a drawer on Arabella's desk. She stalked over to it and pulled out a black flip phone. After looking at it, she smirked and shoved it back in the drawer and left the room.
"It would seem Ella's been invited out."
"That's good, means I don't have to drive her there and spy."
"So Berty, just you and me then."
"I guess."
(Arabella's POV)
They're almost making this too easy. Inviting me over to the shop like that, I'll just drug them and get Berty to pick them up and then that's another step closer. This shop really isn't much, could do with some dusting. They must be upstairs. A bell, I guess I'll ring it.
"Oh hey." Yami said as he appeared from a doorway.
"Hello." I reply in my ditsy, innocent voice.
"Follow me." He stated before turning and walking back through the door. I follow and he walks up a flight of stairs. He takes me to the living room where all targets including Tea are here.
"Hello Arabella." Yugi says, which I know is a greeting of some kind. I'll just copy the first word and hope for the best.
"Hello!" He's smiling, must have been right. Tea's glaring at me, how terrifying!
"What is she doing here?" She says while turning to the others. What is she saying?
"She's got no other friends! The least we could do is invite her." Yugi replies. Or rather shouts, still don't know what they're saying.
"But I don't like her!"
"And we care because?" Everyone laughed at Marik's comment, I really wish I could have heard it because Tea is pouting. Well I say pouting but she can't pout for shit. I've just realised the TV is on, no idea what they're watching. Some kid, who I think is called Shinji, just got into a giant robot and is beating the crap out this giant alien thing* but I can't tell what is happening because it's in Japanese. Though no one seems to be watching it, and an awkward silence fills the room, if you don't count the sounds of destruction from the TV. I walk over and sit in the only available seat, unfortunately, next to Tea. We share the same expression of disgust as she stares at the TV.
"Can we turn over?" Tea asks, her expression changing to one of boredom.
"No one's watching so why is the TV even on?" Yugi asks before reaching for the remote and turning the television off. Now an actual silence fills the room.
"So," Ryo says breaking the silence, "Are you enjoying Domino High Arabella?"
"Well, I've only been there a day. It's really nice of you to invite me over." Tea snorts. "What?"
"Like any of us believe that drivel."
"Drivel?"
"It's when some-"
"I know what drivel means. I just didn't think my gratitude would be downtrodden. I'm sorry for wasting your time." I get up and run from the room, spouting crocodile tears. I get outside and run into an alleyway just next to the shop. Then quickly pressing a button in my watch to inform Berty I was ready. As expected all but Tea ran after me and confronted me in the alley, with endearing looks. Or in Marik, Bakura and Seto's case mild concern. They walked over, when suddenly I pulled a cannister and gas mask from my bag. Placing the mask on my face with one hand, I used the other to spray the area. The group had confused looks before they fell to the ground. When Berty arrived we loaded them quickly into the van and I ran to get Tea. After quickly spraying her, I fireman lifted her and ran back down the stairs and outside, making sure to hit her head on the doorway.
(Rosalyn's POV)
Arabella's back, and she bought boys, hot boys! Well hot boys a weird dog like blonde and a sack with tied hands protruding from the top. Arabella then takes the sack and hangs it on a hook suspended from the ceiling.
"Rosalyn, Berty may I present our new punching bag." Berty laughs, as she whips off the sack to reveal a brown haired girl. I look at the hanging girl, she looks like a slut. I don't know what she's like but I can see her underwear, and she's being held upright. My sister glares at the girl before landing a kick to her stomach. She swings, nearly hitting the ceiling before she swings my way, one of her shoes flying off and just missing my head.
"Hey watch it!" I yell at my half sister as she walks back over to the boys.
"Stop your infernal whining and help us with these kids."
"I'm not having any part of this." I say grabbing a magazine and leaning back in my chair. "It's cruel, inhumane and-" I start before my copy of Take a Break is violently pulled from my grasp, effectively tearing it in half. "Hey I was reading that."
"You will help, or you will be on the streets." Arabella states throwing her half of the magazine into the nearest wall. I drop my head and sigh, then look back into her hard green eyes.
"Fine." I state harshly standing up. She turns and I follow grabbing one of the guys as I passed. The one I picked was short, but not as short as one of the boys Arabella has in her giant wheeled basket, those ones you see in hospitals, and those shows where people hide in them. Said basket only holds 6 boys. Two short tricoloured haired boys, the dog like blonde, the weaker of the two tanned boys, the stronger of the white haired boys and a tall brown haired boy. Bertram is carrying the strong tan boy, whilst I am carrying the weak white haired boy. We walked down a corridor before we came to 4 rooms.
"Sort them like you would your washing." She, in turn, pointed to the four rooms and stating whites, darks and colours. This confused me greatly. I put my boy into the "whites" room before returning to the basket and staring at the others. One of the tricoloured boys had gone missing. I picked up the small tan boy and stared at the rooms. The boy didn't go into "whites" as two were already there. I guessed the kids with multicoloured hair were "colours". But where did he go?
"Darks Rosalyn!" Arabella practically shouted interrupting my thoughts. She grabbed the dog like boy and headed to the fourth room. I dumped the boy in the second room before grabbing the remaining male and placing him in room three. When I returned Arabella had jumped into the basket and Bertram was pushing it away. I followed them back to the main room, grabbed my suitcase from the other hall and left to find a spare room.
I find one up a staircase at the end of a long hallway. It's pretty basic, meaning it only has a small metal frame bed and a bed side table. It'll do for now, until I can get a job. I hate Arabella, I always have. Why does she have to be my legal guardian? I hate being fourteen. I miss mother and father. I still remember when they died as if it were still happening. It hurts to remember.
FLASH BACK
"Oh Mother it was wonderful, the way they moved and the costumes... They were beautiful." Mother smiled at me as we left the theatre. We had just seen Swan Lake. Father was waiting outside to pick us up and take us home.
"So how was the ballet?" Father asked as we got into the car.
"Magnificent." I said dreamily whilst leaning back in the seat. My parents both chuckled as we drove away.
After about ten minutes of driving we came to a cross road I know is about five minutes from home. As the light turned green, father started across the road a motorbike going the other way lost control and slammed into the front of the car. Mother was screaming and crying as the car crumpled and crushed her legs. On father's side it wasn't as bad, though it seemed his foot was forced down on the accelerator as we continued to get faster and faster down the road. The bike was crushed, pinning the rider to the front of the car. The man was desperately trying to pull himself from his position. I remain silent, frozen as cars veered quickly to avoid us, I couldn't scream I was too scared. Father was franticly turning the wheel, but it was no use as we continued to speed, going ever faster until... Nothing. One huge splash and nothing. No more screaming, no more banging, no more anything, only the murky lake water. As the car completely submerged I snapped out of my frozen state. I looked quickly at my parents mother had bled out, and father had smashed his head on the steering wheel, the blood dripping from his open mouth. The biker was no where to be seen, just the motorcycle. I realised that we weren't very deep in the water and I was in no danger of drowning. I hugged my mother and father until the ambulance arrived. They dragged me away from them to check me over. I was fine, but it was the last time I ever saw my parents.
END FLASH BACK
I can still feel the blood on my hands, I still hear mothers screaming, and the slams of the biker trying desperately to save his life. I found out his leg had been severed when we landed and he was floating above the car. Never found out his name, and I never want to. Since I have no other relatives I am forced to live here in Japan with my half sister.
A/N: Another chapter done, this would not co-operate. Rosalyn went through lots of name changes! She started as Kelly, but then I couldn't do the nick name part, then Angelica, but it was to close to Arabella, likewise with Clarissa, then Rosalyn just came to me! What do you think of Rosalyn's back story/ flash back? I wanted to try angst, was it good? Was it bad? R&R guys and I wont be starting Rat Race properly until this is out of the way. And to "Guest" I don't care, you don't have to read it!
*The show is Neon Genesis Evangelion by the way.
