YGO:Crimson Sapphire
Don't kill or flame me for this please. I liked the Death-T adventure in the YuGiOh manga and I wanted to make one. Some of the challanges won't be the same as in the actual manga(I hope) but most events will be the same.
Ch. 25: Seth Kaiba's Revenge; Part 1-Summoning
"Got any...3s?"
"Nope. Go fish."
"Dang!"
Shelen picked a card from the pile. Yami smirked. She didn't know this yet but he used to be known as the TRUE King of Games. She grumbled to herself and he chuckled.
"Come on, Aibou. It's a game of chance, you know that."
"Shut up." She muttered then focused on her cards, "Got any-"
Suddenly there was another voice yelling from downstairs.
"SHEEEELY~!"
Then there were footsteps. Before the newcomer reached the top, Yami disappeared back inside the Millenium puzzle.
"Yo! Sheely!" Jazz popped her head up and waved.
"Jazz, hey." Shelen smiled at her friend.
"Whatcha doin'?"
"Playing 'Go Fish'."
"By yurself?"
Shelen blushed in embarrassment.
"Y-Yeah..." She lied.
"Sheely, I know you used to be alone before me an' the gang showed up, but you need to stop actin' like yur alone now." Jazz berated. Shelen rolled her eyes. If Jazz only knew...
"I know, it just keeps my mind off of things."
"Like what?"
"Um..."
Luckily Shelen didn't have to answer because at that moment the phone rang. She got up and went to answer it. While she was on the phone Jazz looked back at the cards.
'Why are there TWO stacks of cards? She was palying by herself so how was she able to-'
Jazz's thoughts were cut off as Shelen returned.
"Sorry bout that. Mom said she went to get some grocieries and won't be back for a while.
"That's why the cafe was closed then." Jazz guessed. Shelen nodded.
"So what're you doing here anyway?" Shelen asked her friend.
"Just wanted to stop by and say hello." Jazz shrugged.
"Ok." Shelen nodded again, then a thought came to her. How long could she keep Yami a secret from Jazz? Crystal and Kyla knew of him because of their own yamis but Jazz and Daren were still being left in the dark.
"Um...Jazz?" Shelen asked as she looked at her red haired friend. Jazz looked up from where she was getting a Red Bull she had left in the fridge from last time.
"Yeah?"
"Um...Hypothetically, what would you think if I told you that I per chance had a sort of connection to the puzzle?"
"What?"
"Y'know, like what if I told you that...An ancient spirit was living in the puzzle? What would you think?"
/Shelen! What are you doing?/ Yami demanded through the mind-link.
/Quiet, Yami. I can't hide this from her for very long./ Shelen snapped. Yami didn't reply but she could just imagine his irritated expression and him crossing his arms over his chest.
"A spirit? Depends on the spirit." Jazz shrugged.
"What do you mean by that?" Shelen asked.
"Well, if it's a guy then I'd be concerned."
'Well that puts a damper on things then...' Shelen thought.
"Why?" She asked.
"Cause he probably wouldn't be able to resist getting in your pants." Jazz replied simply. Shelen's face turned the color of Yami's eyes(crimson) at those words. She could feel emotions through the link on Yami's side. Embarrasment, disturbance, and...What was that last one? She couldn't tell.
"Jazz!" Shelen scolded.
"But if it was a girl or a gay spirit I'd be a little less concerned of your innocence." Jazz said with a sage look and a nodd.
"Not everything is about your perverted thoughts of men and beds, Jazz!" Shelen exclaimed angrily.
...
Meanwhile in the puzzle Yami was still blushing. How could Jazz think souch things? He had to admit, he knew he was in love with Shelen but still wasn't sure if she felt the same way. Still he couldn't help but recall that time when he tickled her sensless. How she was panting for breath and blushing. Add a shean of sweat and he had himself a fantasy. No! He smacked himself for such thoughts and prayed to all the gods of Eypt that Shelen didn't see that mental image. It still didn't help the new erection in his pants though. Curse these teenage hormones!
...
"Look I was just wondering what you'd think, I mean it's not like I actually DO have an ancient spirit following me around." Shelen shrugged after she got over her blush.
"Yeah. That's rediculous!" Jazz laughed. Thank God she was a total moron at times.
"Yup." Shelen nodded. Suddenly the phone rang again. She sighed.
"I'll be right back." She said then walked back to the kitchen. When she got there Yami appeared.
""Aren't you going to answer the phone?" Yami asked.
"Nope. I pressed the house number on my speed dial so I could get away." She replied.
"Oh..."
There was silence, then Yami glared at her.
"Why are you telling her about me?" He demanded.
"Why do you think? I'm sick of keeping secrets."
Yami's eyes narrowed and he grit his teeth. She wasn't being completely honest. His temper was getting the better of him and came closer. She backed up, very familiar with that look in his eyes. Suddenly his hands were on either side of her, slamming on the wall and barring her escape as he glared at her.
"You have been keeping secrets all your life. Don't give me that excuse!"
She flinched at his sudden harshness, half expecting him to hit her. He blinked and his eyes widened when he realized why she was cringing away. He felt guilty and she flinched again as he instead wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into a hug. He sighed.
"I'm sorry...I shouldn't have spoken to you in that way." He said softly.
"It's alright..." She mumbled, "I keep forgetting that it's ok to talk about things..."
"No. I shouldn't have been so demanding. It's alright if you tell her about me. But I would have prefered a warning."
She pulled away a bit to look at him and smiled sheepishly.
"Ok." She nodded, "I promise I'll talk to you beforehand next time."
He smiled back, a tender and loving smile. She didn't notice the new look in his eyes and only saw the overshadowed brotherly love. Having no idea of the true deep meaning. They suddenly snapped their heads in the direction of the entrance to the kitchen where Jazz stood in the doorway, staring at them.
Blushing, Shelen pulled away and Yami reluctantly released her. She straightened up and got rid of her blush.
"Um..." Jazz was speechless.
"Jazz, it's not what it looks like!" Shelen said.
"I know EXACTLY what's going on." Jazz said, her eyes narrowing a bit. Shelen gulped and Yami just stared, unsure what to do.
'She knows I'm a spirit! Damn, why did I have to talk to Shelen NOW of all times? Now she's going to try to get Shelen to smash the puzzle and make me go back to the darkness! I can't let that happen! I won't-'
Yami was pulled from his thoughts as Jazz then ginned widely.
"He's your secret boyfriend!" She exclaimed excitedly. They both stared at her.
"Secret?" Yami asked.
"Boyfriend?" Shelen cried in shock. She blushed more.
"It all makes sense! Where you went after he saved us from that homophobe and why you were covering it up! You two are obviously forbidden lovers. Why else would you pretend you were playing 'Go Fish' by yourself and saying the phone was ringing. He must be older than you and your parents forbade you both from seeing eachother! It's a modern day Romeo and Juliet!" Jazz was squeeling like a Yaoi fangirl that had just seen their favorite couple doing something cute, "It's so romantic!"
"What is Romeo and Juliet?" Yami muttered to Shelen.
"NEVER speak of it!" She hissed.
"Sheely, it's ok! You don't have to hide the fact you're no longer single and that you are officially straight! We all understand completely!" Jazz grabbed both Shelen's hands in her own and struck an emotional pose while cartoon tears flowed down her cheeks like waterfalls.
"Um..." Shelen couldn't think of an excuse. Jazz then let go and turned to Yami, her anime moment over. He gulped, worried she would start acting all emotional on him too.
"So, what's yur name?" Jazz asked.
"Uh...Yami." He replied.
"Yami, huh?" Jazz turned to the side with another odd pose, this time that of an anime character in a knowing thinking pose. He nodded as a sweatdrop appeared on the back of his head.
"Yes."
"Well, Yams." Jazz turned to him again, "I gots some questions to ask ya."
"By all means."
"Alrigh' first question. Is Sheely still a virgin?"
"Jazz!" Shelen blushed and looked angrilly at her friend.
"What? It's a reasonable question!" Jazz protested.
"I...I don't know..." Yami admitted. He knew that she hadn't been raped but that didn't mean she was a virgin.
"Yes I am still a virgin." Shelen muttered, "And I always will be if you keep asking people that!"
"Alrigh', alrigh'!" Jazz raised her hands in defence, "I jus' wanna know. Question 2; What is Sheely's birthday?"
"What?" Yami was even more confused, at that moment he realized he didn't know anything about his hikari.
"September 18th. I never told him that so he wouldn't know." Shelen explained. Apparently she was playing along for now. So he might as well do the same.
"Alright. You're off the hook of dat one." Jazz nodded, "Next question, how long have you two been togetha?"
"Um..." Shelen couldn't even remember when she had solved the puzzle. Yami would have to take this one.
"A month and a half." He said clearly as though it were true.
"Really? Whoa."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Shelen asked.
"Nothin' just saying. So have you kissed yet?"
Thankfully no one had to answer because at that moment the phone rang.
"Hang on." Shelen walked into the kitchen again.
"You better go with her." Jazz suggested with a knowing look. Yami blushed then hurriedly followed his hikair into the kitchen.
"Did you use the fake call trick again?" He asked.
"No. This time I think it's actually important." She picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Shelen Pendragon, come to Kaiba Land amusement park imediatly. There's a limo waiting out front for you." An unfamiliar voice spoke. "And bring your deck."
"What? Wait! Who is this?"
"If you ever want to see your mother again, be here."
The line then disconnected and Shelen stood there frozen in shock. The pone then fell from her fingers and dropped to hang by the cord attached to box. One name came to mind. Seth Kaiba.
Dun dun dun! What could be the meaning of this?
Heheh, I made Yami and Sheely look like a couple XD This'll be akward to explain to Shayla.
Yami: Why can't we be a real couple though?
Shelen: Because I don't like you like that yet.
Kaze: Yeah ya do.
Shelen: Ok...Maybe secretly or without knowing it myself but still!
Kaze: Riiight.
Atem: *to reader(s)* R & R. Be back shortly.
