Once again, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh!!! But I do own Sar, Henri, Chaz, Zen and Mary (though she leaves), along with the other people from the first chapter.
When outside the room, Darth turned to the girls.
"Ladies, first tell me your name, then your age. After that, I shall go pick out male apprentices." He looked at Kao. She gulped, then squeaked out-
"Kao, sixteen." Mars stepped up.
"Mars, just turned seventeen during camp." The other girl rolled her eyes before saying-
"Mary, and my age doesn't matter to you." Darth raised an eyebrow at her, then turned to Ogenki. Ogenki drew herself up proudly.
"Ogenki, age fifteen, soon to be sixteen." Darth nodded in approval, before turning around and going into another room. Mary let out a snort of disgust.
"Seeya," she said, walking away.
"Where are you going?" Ogenki asked.
"I was brought here against my will. I'm going home while I have the chance." Ogenki stared at her as she walked away. Any other girl would have done anything to be chosen. There was an impatient tsk from behind them. The three remaining girls turned to see Darth, two boys standing behind him.
"I knew she would leave. Girls, this is Henri and Sar, ages both sixteen, I believe." The small brown haired Sar squeaked out a yes.
"Henri, Sar, these are Ogenki, Mars, and Kao." Sar gave a small wave. He seemed as high-strung as Kao. The blonde Henri stepped up and took Mars's hand and kissed it.
"Bonjour Madame. Il fait beau de vous rencontrer.." Ogenki was shocked. This guy was holding Mars's hand! The tall redhead HATED boys. Mars stuttered a hello, pulling her hand back quickly. Darth looked at his five apprentices individually.
"You will all be sharing adjacent rooms, girls on the left, boys on the right. The two rooms are joined by a bathing room, you can do a first come, first serve for baths, or you can do a schedule. I don't care. Your training begins tomorrow morning, but tonight a ball of sorts will be held in your honor. Dress nicely, all the notables, other new apprentices, and the king will be present," Darth's voice hinted he didn't care much for the guest list, "Off to your rooms now, I'll come and get you when it's time." The five stood dumbfounded as their master strode away. Mars finally broke the silence.
"I'm Mars. Come on, I think the room is this way." Mars walked down the hallway. The blonde followed, introducing himself.
"I'm 'Enri. I showed some talent at magec, so mai parents brought me 'ere," Henri paused, "I'm trying to improve my Eenglish and Japanese, they seem to be the common tongues." Sar piped up, looking surprised at his daring.
"That and Elvish." Henri nodded.
"True," he then turned to Ogenki, "Does your name not mean star in Japan-ese?" he inquired.
"Yes, it does. My parents thought it fitting, considering I was glowing and seething with magical energy when I was born," Ogenki explained awkwardly. Nobody ever believed that story, but her parents swore it to be true. But Henri didn't show any signs of doubting her.
"Cool," he said, sounding impressed. (Sailor Kirby here, I would just like to say, if Ogenki doesn't mean star, don't blame me, I'm going by what my friend at school told me. Oh, and I promise that the introducing junk will end soon, and the actual story line WILL pick up. So bear with me and keep reading. Thanks.) Mars looked at the boy, the only one she had ever known to be eye-level with her (except for Darth, who was taller).
"Are you French?" she asked, "Or do you just speak it?"
"Non, I am French." Suddenly Kao spoke up.
"Guys? I think we just passed the room." All of them turned around, and sure enough, they had past two rooms with bronze signs on the doors labeled "Magician Apprentices". The five stood awkwardly.
"Umm… well, I guess we should go inside," Ogenki said.
"Right," the others sort of muttered in unison. They all ventured into the separate rooms. They were modest rooms, indeed joined by a rather large bathing room with a Jacuzzi bathtub. Each girl had a desk and bed, and some easy chairs spread randomly with reading lamps on tables. A large closet stood over to the side with a bookshelf. Ogenki made her way towards the bookshelf, admiring the large volumes and hardly waiting to read them all. She picked one up, feeling a vibe from it. As soon as she opened it, she saw Elvish letters. Then she screamed, for the book was doing something strange with her energy, taking it, then replacing it with a foreign energy. She felt her Chi being ripped from her body, being taken away. Then she felt nothing, for Mars had pushed the book out of her hands. Ogenki breathed deep breaths, feeling the unknown energy returning to the book and her own to herself. Mars carefully put the book on the topmost shelf where she knew Ogenki couldn't reach it.
"Ogenki, what the heck do you think you were doing?" she demanded.
"I was just…" Ogenki started.
"That's the book of Secret Arts! I told you about it! You're Chi is no where NEAR strong enough to handle it. I'd be surprised if Master Darth can even use it!" Mars scolded. Kao came over too.
"She has a point, you know, Ogenki," she said, kneeling next to her, "You should be more careful. What would Mars and I do if you were gone?" Just then Henri and Sar burst through the bathroom door.
"What's going on? Who's hurt? Est-ce qu'Ah, quelqu'un juste me dira ce qui continue? (Oh, will someone just tell me what's going on)?" Henri demanded, buttoning a fancy dress shirt, the obvious means of delay. Sar peered around him.
"I think her spirit has been sucked from her body," Sar said quietly, kneeling down next to Kao, "I think I can help." With that, his eyes glazed over, and a faint light surrounded him. He put his hands over Ogenki's body and, like glitter falling, he healed her spirit. Ogenki opened her eyes. Sar put his fingers on his temples and rubbed.
"Are you okay?" Kao asked.
"Yes, I'm find. Doing that just always gives me a headache." Suddenly there was a sharp knock on the door.
"Come in!" Kao called. Darth walked in, along with an older man and a man just older than Darth. They were all dressed in dress clothes. Darth frowned.
"I thought I told you to get ready. Henri and Sar are dressed, but you girls aren't. And why are we all on the floor?" he demanded.
"Long story, sir." Mars said, "We'll get ready now."
"Good." Darth said, then waved to the two others, "These are my masters, the Dark Sage Chaz and the Dark Chaos Mage Zen."
"Nice to meet you," Zen said, as they all walked out. The three girls quickly got changed, and walked out to meet the others.
Sailor Kirby here! Wow, you made it to the second chapter. So review. CLICK THE STUPID BUTTON AND REVIEW. Please? Or I'll sick Darth on you. Really, please review. And I promise, something will happen soon.
