Chapter 6 The Art of Warfare and Love
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: There are mushy scenes so I will let people know where they are okay…
The bell had already rung when Isisa made it to the back gym doors; she had to make a trip to the warehouse where they stored the real artifacts and prototypes. It was a tiring drive but she was going to show Yugi who was the boss.
[Why in the hell did I let Yugi get a way with that sneaky move? I should pound that kid, but then again I should not Mr. Moto is letting me stay with him after all] Isisa thought to her self as she put CC into reverse.
Dark Fairy and Dark Magician were already waiting for Isisa; they helped unload the weapons and prototypes out of her trunk. The day was turning out to be a very dark one. The clouds were turning black with the threat of exploding rain on everyone. Isisa looked to the sky and then grabbed her coat closer to her.
"What a day to start The Game" she mumbled to her self
Just then, something caught her eye. It was the limo from yesterday, but this time two people got out. The mystery boy from yesterday and a younger boy with raven black hair and startling blue eyes.
"They must be related"
"Who, Blue Eyes"
"Oh, those two from the limo" came the reply
"I see Oh Maria is here today. Apparently her class is here to use the cooking facilities here" said Dark Fairy
"Really, she never told me anything about it." Said Blue Eyes
"Well, she is here and she brought a friend to," said Dark Magician
"Really…I don't know these things, she has been very secretive the past few days. I think she is planning to set me up with someone," said Blue Eyes
"Well you do need a guy in your life. I mean you can't keep hiding from them forever, have you considered getting married," said Dark Fairy
"Dark Fairy! I am only 17" cried Blue Eyes
"Well you know better then anyone that girls in the past would be married by now and be on their first or second child" said the brunette
"Nice I have friends that want to see me married off and pregnant that sounds like a good strong friendship right there" said Blue Eyes with sarcasm
The three friends packed in the items, and just as they hauled in the last load the rain starting pouring down. The rain was cool and brutal to anyone who dared to walk outside; the wind was blowing hard enough to strain the trees that were trying to keep root. Students thought that the administrators would close the high school for the day, but no for they said it was going to pass before school would end.
When the bell rang for class to begin, Isisa was in the girls change room changing into her costume. She had put aside the clothes from this morning and was busy tidying up when Shining Fairy came in. Isisa looked up to meet her friend's gaze.
"Blue Eyes are you ready?" asked Shining Fairy
"Yes, why is there something wrong?" asked Blue Eyes
"No…it's just that Lord of Dragons has a message for you to deliver to the Business Class"
"Why? Who is the teacher?" asked Blue Eyes curiously
"I wasn't supposed to tell you, but all I can say is you know him"
"Him?" said Blue Eyes suspiciously
"Yea him, I wish I was taking the message to him" said Shining Fairy in a dreamy state
"What is the message?" asked Blue Eyes thinking nothing of it
"I don't know you have to get the message from Lord of D" came of reply
"Alright" said Blue Eyes as she left the change room leaving Shining Fairy to daydream.
When Seto Kaiba got to his second block class, he was on edge. He really wanted to read the rest of that folder that Roger gave him this morning. He also had his guard up, Mokuba and Maria were acting as if there was nothing wrong in the world and that nothing mattered at all. He was cautious which was not unusual to anyone who knew him. The bell rang and everyone filed in, those who dropped the class did not show up, which did not concern Seto Kaiba. He was not willing to teach stupid students that were only taking the class to get close to him.
As the students filed in students into the Business Intro, Isisa slipped into the class unnoticed she went to the back of the class. When the warning bell rang for the last student to get to class the teacher walked in. Isisa's breath was caught in her throat; it was the mystery man from yesterday. The one who faced Joey in a staring match, Isisa stared in wonder. His eyes were blue a very cold blue, his hair was a chestnut brown and came into his eyes a little. His appearance was one of respect and authority Isisa could sense the power and influence radiating from him. He looked around the class and then smirked.
"So we have lost a few students…what a shame what a deep shame"
Isisa could tell that he was being sarcastic, he obviously did not like people who wasted his time, or anyone else is for that matter. She wondered if he could see her from where he was standing. She had chosen a spot in the very back were the light had been turned off. Right there she sat on the back counter and glanced around her new surroundings. She noticed a few things like the spare paper and pens/pencils baskets. An out dated computer that reminded Isisa of a dinosaur, and an overhead projector. She grabbed a few sheets of paper, a pen, and an old textbook that was lying around. Isisa was ready for what this mystery man was going to teach. Even though she had already got a bachelors degree in Business, it can't hurt to have someone else's opinion on things.
About 55 minutes into the class, the man had not noticed her. After the brief roll call, he walked to the door and turned off the lights. [This is interesting I wonder if all his classes are like this.] She thought to herself. The man of coarse hadn't looked in her way once; he explained all the main parts of business and then started explaining a few in more details. This awed Isisa. [This is much simpler then the Professor at the University of Cairo] she thought to her self. Then just before the announcements came on the teacher looked to the front and asked one of the students near the door to turn on the lights that's when he saw Isisa in the back finishing up notes.
"So, I see we have an extra student that I wasn't aware of," said the man
"How long where you back there, when did you get in here and WHY DID YOU NOT ANNOUNCE YOUR SELF" Demanded the man?
"Well your class started about an hour ago and by the time I arrived with a verbal message I was so into your class or lecture…should I say that I was taken away completely" said Blue Eyes
"Is that so"
Just then, the announcements came on.
"This is the official announcement for the beginning of The Egypt Game. Remember the winning homeroom will receive an ice cream cake and a $4000 check that goes to school renovations. Remember follow the rules, attend classes and most of all have fun. Now some people have to make their way down to the office after the bell to come and get their messages. Yugi Moto, Cassandra Clark, Jennifer Johnson, Mark Peterson, and Maria Zalika please come to the office"
Then a few seconds later the bell went and as if the students were all robots, they pushed in their seats and went out the door. It took only a few minutes for Blue Eyes and the teacher to be alone.
" You said you had a message...well what is it" said the man
"You know what like I said I got caught up in your wonderfully prepared lecture that I completely forgot, but you know what I'll go ask Lord of D what it was. I sure he will tell me again" came the reply
"Oh really" sniggered the man
"Yea I'll be right back," said Blue Eyes as she was heading towards the door when she turned and said
"You know you sound a lot like a CEO then a teacher…and you should be a lecturer you know how to put people in their place"
"Would it surprise you that I am a CEO" came the reply
"WHAT! That can't be" said Blue Eyes with astonishment on her face
The man just chuckled then said.
"Yes that's right I am a CEO of a major company. You don't know who I am do you."
"Well…teach me," said Blue Eyes
Beginning of Mushy Scene
The two were very close now, inches from their faces. It was like nothing Blue Eyes had felt before; it felt so real so alive like it was right. Their eyes were locked together the spell was unbreakable. The rain outside pounded on the roof and could be heard from the middle floor. The two persons in the room thought that they were the only ones on earth, no one could separate them.
Seto could not believe what was happening, his eyes moved to her lips. They looked soft and delicate, like two petals from a pale pink rose good enough to taste. He slowly pulled her closer to him. She did not struggle, but complied for she wanted what he wanted to. When she finally was against him, she fit right into him like a glove that fits skintight. He couldn't believe she was shorter then him even without her short high heels, her neck came up to his shoulders. It was like she was made for him.
Seto placed his hands above her hips and held her to him as he bent his head to kiss her sweet lips. When Isisa sensed him doing this, her eyes became naturally heavy and she purely strained her neck to meet him half way.
The touch was explosive, the passion lighting the fires of desire right there and then. The kiss deepened to a more demanding rough kiss. Both were coming up for short sharp intakes of breath like there was no tomorrow. It was a pleasing moment for both Seto and Isisa, for the sound of the rain could not be heard over the beating of their hearts. The sound of both hearts pumping blood though the veins could be heard in the ears, it was almost an unbeatable sound.
They were both enjoying the kiss and the passion for one another when a sound from the door got their attention.
End of Mushy Scene
"I wonder were Mr. Kaiba is? I have a question for the assignment that he handed out yesterday," said a girl from the hallway
Both looked at each other and Isisa automatically went into panic mode when she heard the name Kaiba. Seto knew something was wrong, her breathing became unstable, and she was taking very deep breaths. His hold on her tightens and one hand went to her mouth for to keep her quiet. Both knew if they drew attention to the classroom then the whole school would know on what happened in the Business classroom. Seto somehow managed to move both him and Blue Eyes to a far side of the classroom, the lights had recently gone out and so it would be safe there. Blue Eyes was between a wall and a very, very handsome man but what she knew was that his name was Kaiba. And she is terrified of Seto Kaiba.
"Is he in the classroom"
"I don't think, he may have headed towards the library or the cafeteria or something like that," replied the girls friend
"Okay lets go then or I can ask him tomorrow"
After the girls left, Seto sensed that Isisa was slowly calming down; he wondered what had set her off. [Little does she know I know who she is? Even though she is in her dragon costume I know the real her] came the thought to Seto.
"Are you okay?" asked Seto with concern
"F-fine" said Blue Eyes
"I'm S-Seth by the way," said Seto mentally beating himself. [Why did I say Seth and not my real name?
"Seth? Any relation to Seto Kaiba" inquired Blue Eyes
"Umm, I'm his cousin" came the reply
"I see," she said
"Well I think I better go…I mean…" she didn't finish but slipped out of Seto's grasp and ran out the door
"Wait" cried Seto, but with no reward, she was already gone.
"Great now you have the girl but you gave her the wrong name, nice going Seto very smooth. If she talks to Wheeler and those losers, they were sure to tell her the truth. I would have to catch her and explain that I gave her the wrong name by accident. Just perfect" he muttered to himself
He grabbed his papers and laptop and headed toward his locker, maybe he'll find her at lunch sometime. As Seto left the classroom, someone moved from their hiding spot. Yami Bakura came out even though no one could see him (for he was in spirit form) he saw everything.
"This now is getting interesting, if Joey Wheeler finds out that Kaiba sampled the Blue Eyes White Dragon all hell will break lose. But I have to say that if were to choose either Kaiba or Joey I would pick Joey that brat is a ticking time bomb" said Yami Bakura to himself
"I guess it's a matter of time"
Lunch went by without incident and so did third block, but Yugi was giddy with excitement gym was coming up and he would have it with Joey and Tristan. Téa was the only one who didn't have gym this semester. [Boy is she going to miss a lot] thought Yugi to himself
When Yugi and his friends changed into their gym strip, Lord of Dragons met them when they came out.
"Are you boy's ready to see what's it like in the Egyptian Army"
"Army? Since when did I enlist?" asked Tristan
"Well, you enlisted when you signed up for this course," laughed Lord of D
"Oh, I get it" realized Tristan
"Okay now you three go have a seat and wait for the others. I have to set up some of the artifacts I'm gonna show you"
"Really" said the three boys together
"Yea so why don't you just go sit down and relax"
"Okay"
The boys walked over to the pull out bleachers and sat down. They were in deep conversation when the rest of their class showed up. Kaiba was the fourth to arrive, when he saw three boys he just glared.
"Oh great Kaiba is in our gym class, now there goes all the fun" said Tristan
"I don't think Kaiba is going to ruin our fun. I mean we are going to be doing exercises like the ones they did in ancient times" came Yugi's response
"Yea, Yugi's right let's not let rich boy ruin our fun," said Joey
"Okay everyone can I have your attention" shouted Lord of Dragons over the chatting boys.
"Okay now, I know everyone is excited because today I'm going to show you some artifacts and replicas of the types of weapons the Egyptians would have used. I'm also going to explain them and then hand them around. I trust you guys aren't going to wreak them in any way because to tell you the truth they are not mine. I of all people and certainly you guys don't want to put up with the wrath of Blue Eyes. For these are her mother's, mother's, mother's family's items, and we are honored to be able to show them and use them. Now with that said I want to introduce you gentlemen to a very special person, the ladies of our Egyptology group call him Pharaoh Heals a lot. For the reason that he can heal himself. Now some of you are giving me a weird look, well Heals a lot is a dummy forensic scientists use to duplicate weapon makes. For me and Blue Eyes, who by the way hasn't shown up yet, are going to show you what these weapons can do. So, without further adieu I'll start with the Ceremonial Axe," said Lord of D as he held up a golden axe with a golden blade and an ivory bronze handle.
"This axe would be used by the Pharaoh or some other high ranking officer, but most likely the king. Now I will give this over here and see that everyone gets a chance to handle it. Please be careful, and do not try to use it and you do not know how much I can stress it." He said as he passed the axe
"Now we are going on to the battle axe, but this one would be given to soldiers and I'll pass that one around to. Over here, we have two types of swords, a long sword, and a short sword. Note that both have gold handles and have bronze blades expect the long sword, these most likely again belonged to a noblemen, or any member of the royal family. Now we come to my favorite the bow and arrow. Now don't let this thing fool you may think that you might be able to use this baby but guess again. The Egyptians used a wrist protector and a finger guard because when the archers drew their bows into a triangular shape, pulling the string back to their ears it would protect the finger from the pain caused by pulling it. The wrist protector was worn on the left wrist to protect from the whip of the bowstring when firing an arrow," explained Lord of D
As all the weapons were being passed around. All the weapons that were being shown mystified Yugi. Even the Pharaoh couldn't contain his excitement. When Lord of Dragons had passed around the shield and spear, it was too much to control. The Pharaoh took over Yugi's body. When the spear had reached the Pharaoh, he first glanced at it. It felt rather at home in his hands. He couldn't explain the feeling. He stood up from where he was seated and gently held it in his hands when he spotted a ball on the ceiling. This had been there for over a year. He took the spear and threw it with all his might just as Lord of D was explaining how the spear was some times used in hunting birds and other animals besides war.
Everyone including Kaiba and Lord of D stared at what was happening, their mouths were wide open as well as their eyes. They were all staring at what was unfolding before them. The spear flew through the air and stabbed the ball right dead center, but as it was descending towards the ground. On the far end of the gym, the girls change room open and Blue Eyes emerged, unaware that the spear was heading in her direction. There was a shout.
"HEADS UP"
