Oh, this is just too much fun! Um, this is where the 'M' element of the story kicks in and that means… yeah, that stuff. I'm not spoiling it haha. And by the way, I have to say this… POWDERPUFF FOOTBALL IS SOO FUN!! I hate practicing in 100+ degree weather though. Okay, read on and keep in mind that this fan-girl doesn't own a nickel of Yu-Gi-Oh! (Warning: Mature content up ahead)

Chapter Four: I Want You

Are girls… always like this?

Do they just switch from not talking to you to being nice then go back to ignoring you?

If that's how it is with all girls, that's much too frustrating. No, wait… it can't be all girls. The only one I know that acts, or has been doing so recently, is Mana. When did this happen? First she ignores me and focuses on her studies, then we spent the night together and she talks to me again. And now… is she possessed?

Now whenever I get a chance to talk to her, she runs off and says she's busy with her studies or chores or… feminine issues, something along those lines. I think Mana's having an affair with Mahado.

Actually, that would make sense. She has been hanging around him a lot lately, and not just for her lessons which she is so diligent about attending nowadays. I tried asking him what was wrong with her, but he just keeps telling me the same thing.

Ask her yourself.

Does he think I haven't tried that?

That entire option would be very easy if she wasn't avoiding me like a plague! Then again, if he was having an affair with her he wouldn't tell me what's wrong with her.

I don't know why, but… the thought of Mahado holding Mana like that makes me…

Feel…

Mana flipped through her spell book faster, focusing her attention on nothing around her but only to find a certain spell. For the past few days, she had cleared five different books to look for that specific one but so far had no such luck. AGH! Why are there so many spells? I mean, really! I doubt Master Mahado knows all of these even. As she turned the pages effortlessly, a smile beamed on her face as she suspected that this spell was the right one. Mana peered over her shoulder and glanced around to make sure the space around the room and halls surrounding were empty as well. What she was about to do would get her into so much trouble, but it would be worth it if it worked.

She gripped the corner of the page and the part where it connected with the rest of the book and ripped it straight out of the bindings. I'm as good as dead if Mahado finds out. She folded up the papyrus paper into a tiny square and tucked it away safely under her hat. "Mana?"

She jumped nervously and dropped the spell book. "Oh um… hi Master Mahado. I was just uh… tidying up. Yeah that's it, tidying up." Mana chuckled and picked up the fallen contents.

Mahado shook his head and walked over to her, helping her pick up everything. "What are you doing here? I have no lessons planned for you today, so I see no reason for you to be down here."

"Oh, well I…" For the few hours that she was down there, she hadn't bothered to think of what her excuse would be in case she was seen. "You know me, just trying to get ahead." Mana laughed it off, hoping to ward off his suspicion.

Unfortunately, that only increased it. "I do know you Mana, and that's the problem right now. You never try to get ahead." Mahado stood up and crossed his arms over his chest, tapping his foot impatiently and giving her 'the glare'.

I'm in trouble.

"What's up with you these days?" Mana stood up as well and lowered her head, ready to hear the rest of Mahado's lecture. "You're actually listening to what I have to say, coming to your lessons and seeming to be willing to work at your studies."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

He scoffed. "I cannot believe I'm about to say this, but for you it isn't. Something's bothering you and everyone can see it very plainly. Now, I consider myself to be like a brother to you. And as the closest thing you have to a family, I demand to know what the problem is." Mahado hardly ever used that 'brother and family' line on her, only when it was serious. And apparently to him, this was serious enough. He had already figured that the problem with her was most likely Atemu. Ever since Mana had confided in him about her love for the Pharaoh, her attitude changed. "Look, if you're studying to get ahead that's fine. But if it's to avoid Pharaoh, that's not a good-"

Mana shook her head vigorously. "No, I'm not avoiding him. Well, at first I was but right now… is it such a crime that I wanna know more?" Mahado blinked in confusion, not sure if what she was saying was true or not. I could pour a truth serum down her throat, but she would probably never talk to me again after that.

"… I guess not."

She smiled and put the spell book back on the table and skipped out of the room, leaving Mahado even more confused than when he had entered. As soon as Mana was a safe distance from the laboratory, she pulled the little papyrus square from her hat and unfolded it. This had to be planned carefully and she wanted to accomplish it tonight because she felt that if more time passed, her mind-set might change. It was still early and all the practice she had attended would make learning this high level spell much easier.

Paralyzing Submission…

() () () () () () () () ()

For the first time in a few days, Atemu had decided not to call any of the dancers to his bedroom. Tonight, he wanted to read over the declarations Seto had given him and hopefully relax after he was done with all of them. His head began to droop a bit while he was reading through the third one and a loud yawn came out of him. Maybe he should take a little break but he knew from watching his father that the longer you wait, the more work there seems to be. Suddenly, a loud tapping noise was heard on the other side of the door. Atemu ignored it at first, thinking it was one of the dancers and hoped that not coming to open the door would give them the hint. However, the tapping became more persistent and frequent to the point where he had to do something. Atemu stood from his chair and walked to the door in a huff, already very much annoyed with whoever the visitor was. "What the hell do…?" His voice trailed off as he saw it was Mana standing before him.

"Evening Atemu. Um, sorry for disturbing you but I didn't think you would be in such a bad mood."

"Sorry, I thought it was someone else. Actually, I'm not really in an entertaining mood. I am kinda busy, so hurry it up."

Mana tucked her hair behind her ear nervously and fidgeted, determined to go through with it. "Well… I um… I… wanted to… show you a spell I learned."

Atemu raised a brow in disbelief. "A spell? It seriously cannot wait until morning?" Mana shook her head and he sighed heavily, opening the door wider for her to come in. Well, there goes my relaxation. Atemu stood against the frame of the door and Mana stood across from him, neither saying nor doing anything. "Go ahead. Show me this marvelous spell that cannot wait."

"Before that…" Mana licked her lips and gripped her wand tighter. "Could you sit on the bed?"

"Why?" He was happy that she was talking to him again, but the annoyance in his voice came from what he thought to be a silly request. Atemu sighed in defeat and sat on the bed, waiting for Mana to do her spell.

However, she hadn't done anything yet. "Would you lie down with your arms at your sides?"

"… What kind of spell is this?" Atemu's tone showed off his confusion and Mana said nothing to him, just softening the gleam in her eyes. He sighed again and laid back, with his arms at his sides… just like how she wanted.

Mana smiled and held her wand in front of her, using her energy and murmuring a soft incantation as a bright reddish light surrounded the end of the wand and hovered over Atemu. Her soft whispers stopped and the light surrounding him vanished. "Okay, now get up."

What was that about? As Atemu tried to raise his body up, a sharp pain ran through him as though stones were holding down his arms and legs. He tried again and bit his lip when the same pain came back. Each time he tried, his energy seemed to be drained. "Okay, why can't I get up?" She blinked, not knowing what else to do until she realized that her spell had worked. "Is this the spell?" Mana nodded and Atemu laughed lowly as he decided not to try and get up again, seeing as his energy was almost gone. "Great spell, really it is. Now, can you remove it?"

Mana smirked and dropped her wand, climbing onto the bed and over his body. "Atemu, I'm nervous enough with you tied down as it is." What?! His mind was in frenzy as she kissed his lips softly and her hands moved down the sides of his body. He wanted to struggle, to push her off and stop her but his body was so heavy. There was nothing he could do.

"Get off of me! Now! I-I… stop it!" He groaned as her lips went down to his neck and started nibbling and sucking at his skin. Mana straddled his hips and grabbed the dagger at his side, pulling it out of its sheath and pressing it against his chest. Atemu gulped hesitantly and chuckled nervously. "L-Listen um, Mana… you uh don't have to do s-something crazy. Just-"

The dagger ripped through his tunic in half, revealing his tanned chest to her. Mana licked her lips and ran her fingertips across his skin, feeling him shudder from her touch. She chuckled and lowered her lips down to his chest, planting soft kisses on his skin. Everything she was doing was causing a reaction from him, whether he liked it or not.

This was all very new to her, but her fears weren't enough to stop her actions as she started moving her hips and grinding against him slowly but soon went faster. Beads of sweat began to form at his brow as his breathing hastened and his low groans were audible, a sign of how much he was enjoying what his friend was doing to him. "Atemu…" Mana moaned his name softly while her fingers stopped at his hips and pulled up his kiln.

Atemu however, was trying to protest as much as he could. "M-Mana, s-s-stop! Shit…" That proved to be more difficult than he would have thought as more pain shot through his body.

"Don't you like this?"

"NO!" He blurted out without thinking and his eyes widened as she looked down and saw how much he wasn't enjoying it. She smiled and gripped his hardened member, causing him to cry out in pleasure.

"I think," she chuckled as she unfastened the straps to her dress, "you're lying to me Atemu." Her dress was falling, leaving her bare chest revealed to him. She blushed once she saw the lust intensifying in his eyes. He… wants me. Mana leaned down and nibbled on his ear, her breasts pressed against his chest as well. Atemu bit his bottom lip, trying to gain back control of his body but was failing miserably. "I'll be yours tonight." She whispered into his ear and started moving her hips again.

Mine?

"You'll be my first Atemu…"

FIRST?!

As she moved her hips to a point where he was about to enter her, Atemu somehow overcame the pain and grabbed hold of her arms and pushed her over. Mana shook as she was now beneath him, surprised that he was able to move at all. He panted heavily and held onto her arms tighter, leaning down until their lips were less than an inch away.

He got off of her and was turned away from her. "Go."

That simple word with the emotionless tone he used broke her in two and clutched onto her dress, running out of his room with tears streaming down her face. Luckily, no one saw her and she made it to her room and locked it. It didn't work. None of it. Why doesn't he want me like those dancers?! I did the same thing as them, and he still didn't want me! WHY?! Now she felt empty, and all she could feel now was the coldness in his word.

There I am, lying on my bed with my over-heated body.

I honestly cannot believe what just happened between Mana and me. She tried to… we almost… How pathetic, I can't even get my head wrapped around that fact. Even right now, my body reacts just from thinking about it.

What's worse, I actually liked it. Hell, I'm glad I told her to leave at that moment otherwise I might have…

I couldn't do that to her, I just couldn't. If I had made her mine, she would be tied to me forever. Mana would never be able to leave me, even if she wanted to. I know it hurts her when I'm with those other girls, but if I don't then my want for Mana can't be held back that well. I want her so much but I can't have her.

To think… she wants me as well.

How cruel fate is.

Sorry for not updating, but the last scene was really hard to write!! Well, that's what Mana did and if why he rejected her made no sense to you now it will flater on. Review please!
