Okay, ta da, here it is, chapter 8! ^_~
"What did you mean back there Seto?" Yupiteru asked trotting to catch up with him and then having to adjust her walk to his fast pace.
"I think I made it clear enough," he replied smirking at her.
"Well maybe I need an easier explanation," she suggested smirking seductively at him and he smirked back.
"Oh really," he said stopping and wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her to him. She blushed cherry red and nodded; Seto then leaned forward and took her lips with his own sliding his tongue past them and exploring her mouth.
"Well, whata you know, two couples in one morning," contemplated Jono as he and the two remaining girls giggled over Yupiteru and Seto.
"How about we make it three," suggested Viinasu, and before Jono could say another word on the subject his lips were already pressed firmly to her own. Shizuka grinned at this, Viinasu had told her that she liked her brother and she had been wondering when it was going come up.
"Oh my, look at the sun, come on you guys, we've got to get to work," and with that Shizuka hastily pulled the ready to make out pair through the halls to begin their daily chores.
---Serenity and Yami---
"I best be going Yami, I have chores to do," Yami nodded and released Serenity; she smiled ta him and began to run down the hall.
"Already, goodbye Usagi, I love you," he said, Serenity heard this and cringed, she didn't reply and pretended not to have heard, she still wasn't sure as to who she should be with. Thank Ra and Selene she didn't have to go see Bakura today; otherwise her mind would have probably exploded.
---Marusu---
Her eyes snapped open from the vision she had been encountering, "Well that certainly is interesting," she contemplated out loud after witnessing the three couples. She grinned as she headed off to the palace kitchens to get the food that was to be served to the prisoners. Little did she know she was going to encounter a man that would change her life, for a little while anyway…
---Nepuchuun and Tennou---
"I certainly don't approve of any of this, especially Koneko being with the prince," Tennou scowled while Nepuchuun just shook her head.
"You worry to much Tennou-chan, she'll be fine, Serenity-hime has the gift of wisdom as does her mother, she'll make the right decision, just you watch her," Nepuchuun suggested grinning as she pulled Tennou away and off to do their chores for the day.
---Marusu---
The raven-haired girl strode leisurely towards the kitchen unsuspecting of anything that would happen to her. On arrival she was given a bowl of some disgusting looking yellow mush that was 'breakfast'. She was also given a glass of water and directed to take them to the white haired tomb-robber thief Bakura on the right at the end of the dungeons long hallway.
Nodding in understanding Marusu made her way to the entrance to the dungeons, opening it with one hand, balancing the tray at her side with her other hand. She walked through sideways shutting the door behind her. She walked along past the many cells that flanked her path, some of the slaves were asleep, other glared at her, and some gave her looks that Marusu would rather not contemplate.
Finally she reached the end and starred in amazement at the white haired man that lay stretched out on what appeared to be his 'bed'. Her gasp attracted the man's attention, blazing brown eyes that appeared crimson glared at her. She stepped back causing him to roll his eyes and shut them once more, a scowl gracing his features. Marusu reached out and unlocked his cell door, stepping in and walking over to him. "You want this or do I feed it to the dogs?" Marusu asked.
Bakura opened his eyes and studied the girl intently, he could see the fear in her eyes, he smirked, "You afraid of me?" he teased.
"No," she replied sternly.
"You're a bad lair," he replied smirking.
"So what," Marusu scoffed, Bakura chuckled.
"Why'd you come? Oh yeah, do give me that shit," he answered his won question throwing a disgusted look at what was his 'breakfast'.
"I'd feel the same way if I had to eat this…whatever it is," Marusu was surprised at how confident she felt however intimidating Bakura was. She actually felt rather safe and wondered why her stomach seemed to be fluttering.
"So what's your name?" Bakura asked sitting up and using his eyes to indicate for her to sit down.
"Who me?" he gave her a look that said, 'No, you don't say', "Um Ma, I mean Rei," she recovered; suddenly remember she wasn't supposed to be the heir to the throne of Mars.
"Well Rei…" he was about to continue when an ear-piercing scream ran through the halls of the palace. Birds flew with all their might, frightened out of their feathers, not literally, by the sudden sound.
Both Rei and Bakura's head snapped up, Rei ushered a hurried goodbye and dashed off to go bang smack into Usagi who toppled over backwards, Rei on top of her. "Gomen naisi Serenity-hime," Rei gasped helping her friend up who grinned before her face fell again.
"No problem, come on, it was Yami," Serenity grabbed her friends hand and dashed off at a speed Marusu never thought possible for the usually slow, well-mannered hime of the Moon.
Serenity stopped dead, mouth agape at the sight before him, Yami was collapsed on the floor crying, the Pharaoh was starring un moving at his wife who ay motionless on her bed. Serenity realised with horror that the queen was dead; servants and priests appeared carrying the dead women off. Serenity's eyes filled with tears, not only for the death of her friend, but for Yami and the Pharaoh, both had lost something dearer to them than their own lives. Then there was the fact that with all the people around Serenity would be unable to call upon the power of the moon without being discovered, she couldn't bring the queen back like she had Yami's father.
Marusu slid a comforting arm around Serenity's shoulders allowing the saddened girl to cry into her shoulder, uncaring of the tears that stained her dress. Tears sprung at the violet eyes girl but they refused to fall, Marusu was more occupied with her fiend than her own emotions. "Marusu I…I can't help this time," Serenity chocked out, hiccupping in between and sniffing uncontrollably. At that moment the rest of Serenity's hime friends showed up along with Luna.
---Bakura, his POV---
What the hell just happened, what was that scream? Sounded like that pathetic fool Yami, but he doesn't scream, he's the Pharoah's bloody son for crying out load. Unless something happened, but what would happen that would make the King of Games scream, that's like, impossible. Rei sure rushed out fast.
Rei, she was pretty for sure, just as much as Usagi if not more. Hey wait, what am I thinking, why the hell, I am not a two-timer. But then, I haven't seen Usagi since, since that day that I kissed her. She's probably moved on, knowing Yami he's probably taken her by now so there's no use in me lusting after her. But Rei was unmarked, just like Usagi was before; maybe I'll be the one to mark her. I smirk at the thought, poor little Rei, but then, maybe she'll let me and I won't have to rape her.
Hm, I'm such a bad little boy thinking such things, but hey, I'm a tomb robber and psychotic, I'm about as bad as they come.
Well, did you like it, please say you did, please review! ^_^ It helps tuns, BTW, Rei left Baku-chan's door unlocked, he's going to escape and go after Rei. -smirks- Someone suggest what he should do!
