I hate these disclaimers. One day they will be the death of me. I do not own Yu-gi-oh, Yu-gi-oh GX, or Princess Tutu.

Chapter 7: Actions Speak Louder Then Words

This was just horrible.

I was hoping Mana was going to go with me to the dance tonight. I wanted to show her that I can enjoy human traditions too. She picked the night of all nights not to show up.

I hate parties. They are so boring and a big waste of time. To make this occasion worse I had to wear a costume. I chose a prince charming costume. Mana likes this kind of fairy tale stuff right?

Well since the plot will not be coming until a few more paragraphs I will name all the costumes people are wearing. My young master Yugi was wearing a greaser jacket with sunglasses. He was going with Ribbon who was wearing a pink ladies outfit.

The pharaoh was wearing some sort of gangster costume. I am still trying to figure out how he fits his hair under that hat. He went with Anzu who was an anime pop princess costume.

Jounichi had a scarecrow costume while Mai was Dorothy.

Honada was a vampire and Shizuka was a spider web ghosts. Otogi was a rock star. Judai was a werewolf while Asuka was a bride.

The other costumes were just as ridiculous. Just then Jasmine, Melanie, and this other girl came running towards me.

"Mahad what are you wearing?"

"I figured Mana would love a costume like this."

"Well we will wait and see."

Then I saw Sakura and the other harpies enter the room. Sakura was wearing a pink leopard costume while Ray and Azul wore an orange and blue cat costume. They were most likely looking for me.

"Don't worry Mahad-sempai we will get rid of the harpies with a genius plan if ours."

Jasmine and the rest of her friends ran off. Jasmine took a glass of punch went over to Sakura and spilled punch on her. The rest of the harpies were after them in warp speed. They split into different directions.

That was when I saw her in a beautiful white dress and dainty glass slippers. She had a shimmering white mask on. She had white roses in her hair.

I walked over to her.

"Is this my apprentice or someone else?"

Mana blushed a deep shade of red.

"This costume is actually very embarrassing."

"You want to dance?"

"I guess so. By the way I like the costume."

I was about to take her to the dance floor when I realized that this was a fast song. I glanced over at the DJ. I saw the red headed girl that was with Jasmine applying on lipstick next to the DJ and handing him a $20 bill.

"Ok everyone, we are going to slow it down a bit. Here is the slow version of Cascada's Every Time We Touch.*"

Suddenly a slow song played over the speakers. Taking Mana's hand we slowly began to dance. After I spun Mana around she landed softly on my chest. I looked over her shoulders to see Jasmine with two thumbs up grinning at me.

We slowly danced for what seemed like forever. I wished time could stop. I could make it then again. I knew the spell for it.

When the song was almost over I held Mana's face in my hands and slowly brought it to mine. When our lips were centimeters away Jasmine bumped into me.

"Mahad I am so glad I found you. I locked Sakura and the other Harpies in the closet but they brought their… their."

"Their what?" I said this in an angry like tone.

"Their pet dragon!"

What seemed like just on cue the dragon roared so loud that my hair was blowing.

"You guys get out of here! Mana I want you to take Jasmine and her friends to the exit."

"Mahad will you be alright?"

"Do not worry about me Mana. I shall see you tomorrow."

Mana ran off with Jasmine and her friends. It was time to stop a dragon.

When I saw the Harpies and their huge pet dragon about to go into the room I stood in front of them.

"Mahad there you are! I thought you did not show up. Do you want to dance?"

"Sadly ladies I am leaving. I will try to be there for the next party."

"Well then Mahad see you later."

I got rid of the harpies for a little while. I thought the night was through when I noticed something on the on the ground near the entrance. I picked it up and looked at it.

It was Mana's glass slipper.


*1- Cascada is a pop artist she created both the fast and slow version of Every Time We Touch.

Well that was some werid chapter. I wonder how the Harpies got the dragon into the building anyway. I did not forget about that chapter with Jasmine. I am almost up to it. I will get the next chapter up shortly. See you later!
