Holy Faith
Man, it's already chapter 12! I wasn't planning on writing but I promised myself I would finish this story soon so I can work on other things and blah, blah... yeah my friend made me promise her and all. .
-Italics for Yugi and Yami talking in thoughts between each other-
"Bold is for talking in English"
{Week 3 Day 7 - So... Please Welcome Alice}
Yugi, yawning, made his way to the bullet board wondering when they were going to send threw a text or hell, a email at least. Getting to the board, he searched and searched looking for his name. He was tired which probably was the reason he over looked his name a couple of times but when a soft hand tugged on his.
Yugi snapped his head over to see a small girl. She was a short girl, shorter then Yugi by a inch or two. She was dressed in a blue puffy dress, she wore a matching bonnet and shoes. She had white hair and big, bright purple eyes.
"I am your next rival." She said calmly as Yugi tilted his head and smile. Yugi thought about one good thing about being short, and he finally found this moment.
"It's nice to meet you..."
"Alice... my name is Alice..."
"It's very nice to meet you Alice, my name is Yugi Muto."
"I know." Yugi let out a small dry chuckle, the girl seemed happy to found him but her answers came off as dry, or rather stating the obvious.
"Do you want to play tag?"
"Tag? Sure, why not."
"Okay, I'll meet you in the dungeon See you there Yugi!" With a large smile, Alice cheerfully ran off as Yami appeared next to him,
- She seems very young.-
-Yeah, she's like ten... I wonder what she's doing here...-
- She's here like any other person is, besides us.-
- ... I know but sometimes, I want to meet someone who isn't.-
- Rin, seems promising but even she has a reason to break into this war.-
-It sounds like you still haven't forgiven her since yesterday.-
- You shouldn't go around touching people inappropriately.- Yugi face became slightly smugged as he snorted, not commenting after Yami.
"Yugi!" Yami changed with Yugi upon Rin calling out to him. When he turned to face her, she had a very serious look on her face.
"I heard who you were going up against Alice."
"Yes, is something the matter?"
"Of course you old idiot!" Yami frowned as Yugi was laughing silently besides him. Yugi was surprised that Yami didn't throw him a solid glare.
"What's the matter?"
"Well, for right now, don't get into a battle with her... it's nearly impossible for you to beat right now. I need to do more research... my memory is slipping from me. Excuse me." With that she ran past Yami who watched her leave before switching back.
- You caught all of that right?-
- Of course, Rin is your friend so I'll take whatever she throws at us, advice and all... and not battling Alice is all what we need to do, then alright... I wasn't going to fight anyway.-
-You're the purest person I know.-
-Hey! I'm just being honest... and to be honest, I don't think I'm strong enough to face her. I'll break... there's no way I can take down a little girl and her servant.-
"But Master..." Caster said appearing next to the boys as they looked over, "If we don't... she'll kill us... I hate to say it... and maybe it's my own personal thoughts about it, but, small kids like her... she doesn't care as long as she gets what she wants in the end..." Yugi honestly had to admit, Yami would have said something like that but maybe a slight be nicer... less harsh, but Caster got her point across.
"I understand Caster... but no matter, I can't ignore the task I've been given now... let's go play hide and seek."
After running all over the dungeon, Yugi corner Alice in the very back, empty room.
This time the dungeon were a swamp/fairy theme. All different colors fairies flying. There was one that even looked like Navi(1), yet sadly it never did once say, 'hey listen!'.
"It seems like I won-" Yugi cut himself off when he saw two Alice's, the one that he met and the other was her twin but dressed in all black... and there was a big red, standing on two feet, beast behind them.
"Well I guess so, it seems like my turn... unless you want to fight...?" Alice asked tilting her said to the side innocently as Caster took a half step up,
"Let's do it, I'll take you on!"
- Yugi! Don't! Remember what Rin said!- Yugi heard Yami say, though it was hard to hear threw the rough static.
"NO CASTER!" She looked at Yugi who gave out that loud out burst. Turning to Alice... or Alice's he smiled softly, "No... let's just play tag... you're it." With that Yugi quickly turned and ran as the Alice yelled,
"Get them! Don't stop until you kill them!" Yugi held his breath as he ran even faster then before. Luckily that helped him get out of the dungeon with Caster a whole couple of minutes before that thing caught up. Leaping threw the exit, Yugi landed face first as Caster landed on top. With a dark, painful sounding groan, Caster got off of Yugi quickly.
- Yugi, are you alright?-
-Yeah... just slight back pain...-
"We should go." Caster said apologetically as Yugi and Yami nodded. Walking back to their room, Yugi was able to walk on his own and up the stairs but he ran into someone. With long light purple hair, matching eyes and the rare tan skin. This girl wore golden color glasses. She was much taller then Yugi, well everyone was. She looked down at Yugi and said,
"You... you and your servant have been quite a lot of trouble lately... but I only pity you for Alice and her servant are dangerous." Her voice was quite calm as she stood to him but Yugi said,
"Well I see, but there's no need to pity me, for I will over come Alice and her use beast servant." The girl's eyes widen for the moment before she looked away and talked away too. "My name is Yugi by the way...!" The girl stopped and turned back,
"My name is Rani." Then she when on her way.
- She's a very strange girl...- Yami muttered to himself more then Yugi but Yugi answered away,
- Aren't we all at one point within our lives...?-
