YGO - YGO
That night, Victoria was tossing and turning in bed, another strange dream starting to find it's way to her.
"What is it?" She muttered in her sleep. "What do you want?" She muttered, and her necklace started glowing as her dream fully started.
-- In Victoria's dream --
She was running across the sand covered desert of Egypt. Where she was going, she didn't know, but all she knew was she had to get away from whatever was following her. She was dressed as, what looked like, a pharaoh's priestess. She narrowed her eyes a bit and saw that she was running towards a palace, which she somehow knew she had to reach. She finally reached the palace and ran inside.
"Pharaoh!" She yelled as she ran into the throne room.
"What is it?" One of the priests asked.
"Something's coming... something terrible is coming." She said, shaking with fear. Then, they all heard a scream.
-- Outside of Victoria's dream --
Victoria woke up, screaming, which woke everyone else up. Amanda turned on the lamp, and everyone saw her sitting there, shaking, her necklace no longer glowing.
"Victoria?" Bastion asked as he walked over to her, then pulled her into a comforting hug. "What's the matter?"
"T-t-that dream?" Victoria said, still shaking with fear. "I-it was s-so real."
"Victoria, calm down. It was just a dream."
"No, no, it's not just a dream." Victoria said as she broke away from her brother's grip. "That... thing, whatever it was, was too real to be a mere dream."
"Here. Let me see if there's anything wrong with your subconscious." Satorious said as he sat behind her, and placed his hands on her head. He concentrated for a minute before saying, "Nope. There's nothing wrong with your mind."
"If you ask me, I think it's the necklace that's causing the dreams." Yami said. "I still may not know where I've seen that necklace before, but I know that it's got to have something to do with those dreams. It woke me up before you woke anyone else up, because it was glowing."
"Did you say it was glowing?" Bastion asked.
"Yes."
"It was glowing when she had that first dream too."
"See! That just proves my point!"
"Look... why don't we all just go back to sleep and stop keeping others up!" Jazzmine yelled as laid back down and covered herself up with the blanket.
"Don't mind her." Amanda said. "She's just being a little sensitive right now after what happened at the amusement park today."
"But I do think she's right." Annie said. "Why don't we just put this whole thing behind us for tonight and get some more sleep, huh?" She suggested, so everyone went back to there places on the floor that they called beds for the rest of the night.
-- The next morning --
"You going to the library, Victoria?" Jaden asked.
"Yes. I've got some more research to do about those ancient artifacts. Plus, I wanna see if I can find anything about my necklace while I'm add it." Victoria said as she grabbed her small backpack and threw it on.
"I'm going with you." Yami said as he stood up from the table.
"You don't need to do that. I know how to get to the library, I don't think I'll need an escort."
"That's not why I'm going. If you find something out about that necklace of yours I wanna be the first person to hear about it."
"Well, alright. You can come." Victoria said, and they walked out the door together.
"Do I smell puppy love?" Melody asked as she walked out of the kitchen with Amanda, Annie, Lily, and Emily Lynn.
"I don't think so, Mel." Amanda said. "Victoria says she doesn't like the Pharaoh that way, and we all know that Yami is head over heals for Yugi."
"Just because she says she doesn't like the Pharaoh that way, that doesn't exactly mean that it's true." Melody said.
"No, you don't know Victoria like we do. When she likes and doesn't like something, she's says it... right?" Lily asked.
-- At the library --
"Oh, hello again, Victoria." The librarian said as she saw Victoria walk into the library with Yami.
"Good morning, Ms. Kishi."(1) Victoria greeted back as she walked up to the desk.
"And who might this be?"
"This is Yami."
"A boyfriend? Well, it's about time someone took you off the market."
"I'm not 'off the market'." Victoria said. "Yami's not my boyfriend, he's one of my friends, but he's not my boyfriend."
"Oh." The girl said, then sighed. "Can I have him then?" She said, and Victoria gave her a weird look. "Okay, okay. So... normal table and books?"
"Yes to the normal table, but I'll be looking for some different books today."
"Suit yourself." Ms. Kishi said.
So, Yami followed Victoria to a corner table and sat down while Victoria went to get some books about Ancient Egypt for them to look at. When she came back with about 20 different books on Ancient Egypt, Yami gave her a weird look.
"What? We're supposed to be looking for ancient artifacts and about this necklace that came from Ancient Egypt, right? So, what are we waiting for? Lets get to work!"
After about an hour or so Yami yawned and said, "This is getting boring. We've looked through all these books at least 20 times, and found nothin'."
"Well, we can't give up."
"Ever heard of a thing called a computer... with an internet that has google on it? Books are so old school."
"And computers are just a pieces of crap that should never have been invented."
"Are you crazy? I've been in ancient times, okay? And it is so boring there when there's no technology."
"How could it be boring when you're a Pharaoh? Pharaoh's get whatever they want. If you just say 'I'm bored', people would line up to entertain you."
"Actually that's a common misconception. During court times and everything there was no such time... at least in my priest's opinion." Yami said.
"So, it's true."
"What is?"
"That you regained you're memories after losing them for some time."
"Yes, that's true."
"So, how does it feel to have your memories back?"
"Pretty good actually." Yami said. "I'm not wandering around wondering who the hell I am anymore."
"Yeah, I wouldn't like not knowing who I am."
"Hey... can I ask you a question? It's kinda off subject, but..."
"Well... yeah, of course."
"D...do you think that Yugi likes me?" Yami asked.
Victoria looked at him, wide-eyed, almost as if saying, 'that is the stupidest question in the whole, entire world'. "Why wouldn't he? I've seen you two together. You're his hero." She said as she grasped his hand in her's, and squeezed it, comfortingly.(2)
"I don't mean just as friends."
"Then, what do you mean?" Victoria asked. "Wait a second... are you in love with Yugi?" She asked, and Yami looked at her before nodding slowly. "Wow! That's... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5th time Amanda and everyone else's eyes have caught on to other people's feelings."
"Victoria, you have to promise that you won't tell anyone about this."
"But I think Yugi deserves to know."
"No. No, Yugi on our secret. Yugi can't know about this... at all."
"But, Pharaoh-"
"Victoria, promise me you won't tell anyone. Please." He said as he held up his hand and had his pinky standing up.
Victoria understood the signal. "It doesn't feel right to hide this kind of thing from your hikari, but... deal." She said as she locked pinkies with him.
What neither of them noticed is that Yugi had gone into the library to look for them when he saw them sit there and make that promise to each other. He thought that they had just gotten together and just promised not to tell anyone about it, not even him, who was the closest person to Yami. He ended up running from the library, crying his eyes out.
'Not only did Yami just break my heart by deciding to go out with someone else, and also deciding to not even tell me. He also doesn't know that he'll be breaking my heart just by doing it, because... I love him.' Yugi thought as he continued running and felt tears spill from his eyes.
YGO - YGO
(1): The name "Kishi" is Japanese for "Seashore"!
(2): Victoria and Yami are really close friends, almost as close as Yugi and Yami. Some people even mistake them for going out with each other, but they're really only friends. So, don't mistake them for going out too.
One of my friends, who doesn't know about my obsession with yaoi, said that Victoria was kinda playing Tea's part, and that got me mad! I didn't show it, but I did say, "No, because Victoria's not a slutty, little, bitch like Tea is."
Anywho... how do you like it so far? Is it good?
