Chapter ten.
"BOYS TIME TO GET UP" gramps voice ran upstairs within seconds large bang sounds came from the two crazies trying to get to the food first not far behind was joey but at least he wasn't destructive. *crash* ok not as destructive as the two phyco.
Stand up yami looked out the window, they weekend had passed and today he would go to school for the first time in his whole life. He started to put on the uniform still refusing to touch the glass eye he put on the eye patch while heba woke yugi giving a battle cry before jumping off the top of a bookshelf.
"OW oh morning heba where… ah there you are yami. Why arent you where the patch your supposed have the." Yugi stated.
"I know it's just. Well what if…"
"what's the worse of those what ifs?"
"it falls out while where eating lunch." Yami stated the worse of them.
"ok well they did say it was for formal occasions not for everyday use…" yugi said grinning.
"thanks." He said as they walked down for more pancakes the one food everyone in the house adored
"Hey why?" Seth started the saw yugi's point at eye then the food seto and the others realising at the same time while ryou grinning ask his two lovers to pay up.
"come on boys eat up or you'll be late." Gramps said putting down the final plate of pancakes in the centre of the table were the boys could fight for it.
With half an hour to spare they entered the school grounds. From there they took yami to their claimed part under a large oak tree where five students they befriend already sat the familiar faces of old friends that where adopted out just after mio arrived.
"yami you recall my little sister serenity." Joey hugged his blind sister proudly they found the cats the year mio arrived and named them after their lost friends.
Gentle yami tapped a greeting in morse code for serenity smiling gently. Serenity was the last to be adopted being there when yamis tongue had been removed the next morning bakura pushed her into the river at the oasis her new father not wanting to get into legal trouble order her to forget but knew she missed her elder brother.
"yami I'm not blind anymore my mother had dad Mr wheeler pay for some eye surgery. I can see." Serenity said leaping to hug yami.
"hey boys."
"anzu tea it's nice to see you two again."
"hows my kitty doing?" anzu demanded bakura.
"fine but she rivals you in pinning for yami." Anzu and tea were leaving the day the found the kittens while the remaining two friends pulled yami and yugi next to them.
"duukke no fair yami was to sit next to meee." Anzu whined.
"no cat fights. That does for you as well bakura, marik." Yami singed smirking as serenity sat down next to yami waiting for the bell as they told each other of their lives up till now.
"when we saw you guys Friday we each told our parents they can't wait to see the famous yami and gang." Duke said grinning.
" don't worry yami when I saw the gang for my first day I told them what happed up till what I knew so we all leant sign language and told our families so we can all understand." Serenity said brightly.
"thanks… I can't believe were together again hey what happened too ishizu?" Seth said asking for Malik's elder sister.
"she and isis teach. Here isis ancient history ishizu modern history demon teachers."
"I heard that Tristan aka one more f and I'll have to kill you." Isis said walking over.
"yami it's good to see ou again al the teachers where informed of your arrival but the two of us knew you first we normal sit here and help duke and Tristan study." Ishizu signed to her old friend.
"onee sama." Both malik and marik coursed to their respective sisters (malik and ishizu . marik and isis)
"either on of you skip o sleep in my class and I'll kill you." Isis said out loud.
"guys there's the bell. See you in class sensei's Ishtar." Tea said
"here we share role call then you and I have art after that we all have . then recess followed by English and mod hist. after lunch pe." Yugi explained while they were heading to the rollcall room.
"Oi brat we have a new kid who will be joining he can't talk so don't try to force him if ya know sign Lang go for it. The new kid atemu yami can understand so you can talk just don't expect a big answer the principle gave him phone rights so he can show you and us teachers rather than talking." The teacher a man named mariku said with a knowing grin he was a pe teacher at the school with his sister isis he couldn't wait to see the one person younger than him that he respected.
"hi big brother." Marik said walking in
'don't you even dare say where late isis and ishizu wouldn't leave us alone and we had to pry anzu off yami again." Akefia said darkly.
"just take ya sits. Where is yam's I just warned to others about him. Then I can do roll call."
"one word fear." Malik said curling up next to marik.
"yami get your ass in here before I start to attack kittens." Mariku said knowing yami would come in.
Yami walked in sighing before shooting a glare at his three friends and the 'teacher' followed by yugi who started a string of apologise only to be cut off.
"yami it's good to see you got out well minus." Mariku started.
"finish that thought and I'll finish you." Yami texted quickly his eyes narrowed.
"sensei you know the new kid." A voice rang out from a tall blonde his hair in a flag bandana.
"yeah his dad rang an orphanage he became the orphan though I got free with the demon history sensei. As you know malik and marik our brother and cousin respectively and then there's the Scooby doo gang plus a new clone of their fearless eye and tongueless leader."
"well at least I didn't lose my intelligence or my sanity mariku." Yami shot back.
A chorus of ohhh rang out everyone like the teacher prone to prank wars but no one challenged him it was always to other way round, he was the hardest and most dangerous teacher they knew and they all wanted to see this.
"testy you want another war?"
"ha you want to lose again last time Akefia and malik ratted us out but I'm all for it." Yami smirked.
"aniki you know yami will win. He always does you know it I know it you want the school to now it as well?" marik said sighing.
"sure why not."
"lunch ?"
"you're on pharaoh."
"sure tomb raider."
"FIVE BUCK ON YAMI." Bakura yelled as ryou put up a betting pool table instantly having their class mate's throwing cash with bets.
" same. Oh and put the others up too." Seth said calling out to ryou who grinned.
"is this safe and will we get in trouble for it?" yugi asked softly.
"it's a teacher so we can't get in too much trouble and seen that is me alone it should be somewhat safe…" yami signed to yugi pulling him to sit down waiting for the bell starting class while ryou and bakura spread the information.
"yam' how the hell?" joey asked on their way to class holding up a poster of him and mariku in a fighting stances the words 'disabled new kid V.s. demon teacher bets can be made from the following contact numbers.'
"I don't know and when did they take these pictures?" yami signed shaking his head in utter confusion.
"that information will cost you $20." Akefia purred counting up the cash along while bakura played debt collector with the ones ringing in ryou acting as their bait and good cop routine.
"we'll pass I can torture it out of my brother later. Or sick big sis on him." Marik said rolling his eyes.
"you know its kindda scary how all you older boys look evil where the little ones seem so innocent and uncountable." Serenity said gently dragging her brother to science where her adopted father was working.
" yugi I'm putting you and malik in charge of them understand they can't be left unattended for a devoid without causing trouble with yami its normal accidental but the others often rope him into their evil doing." Seth said following joey as marik Akefia and seto when to business. Ryou and bakura taking art with the other two.
In art-
"ok we have some new students along with pratical work ok class" a female teacher chirped.
They sat down near duke and tea and then went to chose a medium to work with (clay, etching, painting, or plaster carving) tea had chosen painting and was working on the drawing of the image on a canvas, duke was etching aka looking at his reflecion in a thin piece of plastic over an image of a dice in mid roll. Yugi sat down watching as his beloved started to work on some clay saying he wanted to create a statue that his dad used to own of the Egyptian goddess sekmeth the lioness headed goddess of war it was broken when he lost his temper mio threw it at him.
Yugi decided to paint yami while he work drawing several scethes to later paint enjoying the semi peaceful atmmospere of the class.
Sience-
"hey is father late again?" serinty said asking her step brother pushing joey next to her.
"ser I'm here hes not does that help" her brother replied look at the famous joey.
"im joey."
"jouinchi wheeler your sis was raised well im glad you gave us the chance to meet her."
"is shizu nisan here yet?"
"looking for father. Her loss." Jou said answering his sis seeing what she ment. "so that friend of yours was really hurt don't worry I wont let anyone go after him othere then mariku sensei am not fighting him ever." Jou signed just to prove he can after serintys insitance that everyone learn for the sake of the frist person to protect her and insure she made it out unscared.
"if ya anything like me I'll be sure of that has ren made any trouble ? I jumped six feet when bakura said he pushed her in dat river."
"cople of brantches did her eyes in worse than they were but shizuka Nissan fixed that. Shizu was born blind but mom payed the surgery before her third birthday she wants to become a doc to help others with that when she headed about your yami via serenity she was mighty impressed at recess she plans to high jack him to see how he knew exactly what to do to help ser last long enough to escape with you any permeate damage."
"just as long as she doesn't jump him from the left he's not wearing the glass one today according to yug' the worst reason yam' refused was."
"falling out in food right?" jou imputed sadly. "that would be my worst fear. Followed by it falling in to my food."
"that was my first."
"todays fried shrimp day." Serenity said ignoring her brothers dual joyful cries wanting the nearly look alike brothers to be friends like her and shizuka.
"Class has started books out Jou Joey detention 5 minutes after class you two serenity. Page 180 atoms. Silent note taking Now." Mr wheeler barked out entering the class shirt ruffled his other daughter his blood child sitting down pushing jou over to sit with serenity. Carefully tapping out with her pen as if thinking of what to write using morse code like jou she learnt along with their mother where Mr wheeler refused to denying any and all connections to serenity's past. Shizuka knew that the marriage was rocky because of that ever since he started hitting jou and her mother started to resent her children as the eldest she had already saved up to move her siblings and self a block away from the muotus they had known Solomon for years since jou took an interest in dual monsters but serenity never went with them choosing to buckle down in her study's so not to annoy her adopted family not wanting to cause trouble as jou said it was rather ironic she hadn't or else they might have found the others sooner only to be slapped when serenity ran away in tears.
"you mention food didn't you?"
"yep. Oh and jou told joey your plan to steal yami just don't attack from the left no glass today."
"I promise."
"you learnt morse to?" joey tapped suddenly but keeping in nonchalant writing slowly not understanding most of it only taking the class for his sis.
"the cats I thought I was cute and wanted to speak with them I you ever got out like her."
"well there is a kitten named after you mokuba named it Japanese version of serenity's name they never part."
"like me and shizu." Serenity taped back grinning into the text book leaning over to check her brothers work fixing some of it then checking on jou grinning as they made the exact same mistakes."
The bell rang faster and all four relations and near lookalikes personality wise.
"what is it dad?" Jou said with a dorky grin on his face.
"I'm sorry for abounding you young lad however we are still discussing whether to take you in until then I would suggest you refrain from getting too close to my youngest child."
"no. she's my little sister I promised ma' I would watch over and protect her I nearly killed the ass whole pushed her in the river I an' it leave her alone again. We watched ma die we both heard her final words screams from a burn sabotaged car along with my friends mothers and family friends Mr and Mrs Kiaba, Mr. Ishtar and Mrs. Yami/Kiaba. They all died yelling for us to stay together and protect serenity and mokuba we swore on our souls. I don't care who it is they make my sister cry and ill thump em, send me to jail I don't care also as I can see my baby sisters well and unharmed."
"see father I told you. I said I wouldn't stand for anything you did to remove him would you try to spate jou from me? Where together we didn't promise or swear to a dying person that but we stand together or…"
"together forever or not for all . That was what ma raised me to stand for and that's how all of us do."
"I'm not letting a Whore taint my daughter if I see you with her I'll see you expelled and a restraining order placed on you."
"DAD!" jou yelled pissed looking at joey who had flinched at the harsh words.
"it's fine… I never said anything about taint my sister heck anyone who tried to even look at ren that way would have ta deal with me first. As I said you can try to do whatever you want but I am not gonna leave my sister again." Joey said eyes still on the ground.
"Mutt !" seto said walking in with his twin who quickly sized them up.
"hello serenity. And you must be jounichi and skizuka wheeler and your father Mr. James wheeler age 34 worked previously at Kiaba court before making side deals with drugs and weapons fired for stealing products and wanted in three country's under five different aliases do I need to continue ? that's the prices for torment our friends I am thankful for all you have done for serenity she and my youngest brother mokuba where close and he's been dying to see her once more after all there the only two we managed to save and none of it was willing. We were raised to give in to anyone and I may remind you that the Kiaba family's money reverted between all three sons each of us alone can insure you never work in this country again with a lone call so I suggest you restrain from calling us whores." Seth said.
"unlike like the rest my twin and I were raised with a second family mouto one that override the together forever or not at all. We lived with fathers code Screw the rules we have money. Most of the teachers already know not to go against our family from pervious deals with our father not to mention we are related to Isis, mariku Ishtar and Ishizu Ishtara raised with their siblings Malik and marik who take after mariku in personality. Also the Mouto family are as powerful as our own after all our aunt gave birth to Yami Atemu whose grandfather is Solomon Mouto. Only us who had do deal with that crap have the right to tease and belittle each other this is my Mutt shared only with serenity and Seth. And both brother and I stand with joey and the whole gang in protecting serenity yami himself admitted that although pushing her into a river was bad however I got her you before she too was trapped to our fate we refused to let anyone take her by force and she was our guiding light." Seto finished eye on serenity holding her and joey close his twin focused on Mr. wheeler.
"Mr. Wheeler is there a reason that I'm missing some of my best students along with new students to I have to inform the dean?" Isis stormed in mentally judging the situation piecing it together in seconds.
"No. Dismissed however my words stand to all of you or detention and being grounded."
"under what charges? Mr wheeler they have done nothing wrong yet wait until thy at least draw bad company or watch the so-called battle at lunch mariku has decided to 'war' against your daughters most loved topic."
"that tongueless whore."
At that serenity burst into tears and jou helped joey restrain the Kiaba both glaring. Shizuka snarled at her father hugging serenity. Isis froze before letting out a violent stream of ancient Egyptian before reverting back to English. "Mr. wheeler, I think you of all people would not be one to judge others ! that young boy stood up for his family after watching his father and mother murdered within a two week span he was raped so a woman with a sti would harm your child ! I overheard the full story and tried to get the child to leave however that woman a real whore had chosen another target! She went to rape your child and that young man threw a priceless artefact at her telling her to run and hide that night my brother insured her safety at the risk of their own for ever one who was freed she went after another minor. Their children rape victims who protected and half raised a 2 and 5 year old while barely 10 to 11 themselves and seeing how they need no special courses I'd say they did a rather good job last week they were still being tortured in their own home without any formal schooling other then working together by themselves. For your previse accusation I will be informing the deal but not the children they'll have to deal with that kind of talk off the students let alone deal with this kind of blunt abuse of a teacher. Frankly I am ashamed to be working with you I had believed you to be a better man than this. Children come with me or if you wish I give you permission to go home."
"as much as going home would avoid more of these talks we all were prepared for it and we are not ones who run away. Besides we came to learn and I have certainly learnt something from Mr Wheeler even if the message was truly the most desirable." Seth said head help high leading jou and shizuka out towards isis class.
"like watching lose weight commercial this 'session' was boarding and useless only seceding in insure I would not buy or deal with such a stupid and fervours product." A smirking seto followed up following behind joey and entity guarding them in a circle.
"fine go to class while you wait you may inform any parents if need be. Once I arrive I expect you to be half way if not finished the work on the board Minoan Crete trading relations to Egypt. Once done you may talk or sleep choice is yours yami was done before I came to look with an A++ ratio of correct answers."
"Yes Sensei." Jou called before heading off with the group.
"What took you lot so long?" ryou said worried.
"my adopted father wanted to get joey in trouble for talking to me the twins and neesan yelled at him till isis came."
"she said we may notify any and all parents. Why?" joey asked look at yamis text book darting down the answers.
"mothers been want a divorces since jou got punched defending serity mother told isis and ishizu wanting help the fight was because during seritys birthday she wished to see you lot. You know make a wish on the candles she wished for your freedom and safety." Shizuka said pulling out her phone.
"mother sorry. Yes I have permission its isis sensei. Yes due to. He treated to arrest serenity's brothers and bellied him for being rape. Just as you believed he was. No the brother managed to avoid violence. I was planning to ask this for a while, I've bought a 6 bedroom home reason in-between kame games and the school may I take jounshi and serity to live there with her bother and few others till everything at home is back to normal. Thanks so much yes I'll give you the names I was thinking the Kiaba family only to help Mr mouto that's twins Seth and seto and serenity's friend mokuba yes the mokuba she talks about more then yami atemu yes the Kiaba the ones dad was fried from after using company money to fund illegal materials for sale and own use." Shizuka said half working on the board work keeping her eyes on yamis to keep her answers both hers and correct.
"thanks mother well come home and pick up our gear after school thanks for the offer but you need to focus I can handle it. Love you too."
"she gave in?"
"yep so Kiaba willing to move in with us?"
"sure I know it's hard on gramps having so many in the house."
"I call gramps ok seto?" joey said
"let me have the phone afterwards ishizu also offered us a place with family next door to gramps."
"so just you and I at jiisans well it be quiet for one." Yugi said slightly sad.
"not really we both have house next door you'll hear everything Solomon complains daily about mariku." Isis said returning.
"anything at recess?" yami asked.
"nah unless your prepping to attack my elder dumber brother." Marik said grinning.
"we've dealt with stuff but you're really taking on him?"
"it's not the first time but mariku won't last more than two minutes. "isis predicted she was the groups so-called physic as she would always get things right.
"so which scheme level?" ryou asked they had ranked the pranks by duel monster cards as kids the weaker the card the easier and less dangerous the prank.
"no exordia." Isis warned.
"actually I was planning on kuriboh/dark magician girl."
"nasty." Bakura winced. "why do I prank you again?"
"cause you marik and his brother are all idiots who don't learn."
"true." Yugi and joey said grinning only to be chased by the two nutjobs.
