Chapter #7: Unknown Stories

*~*~*Elaya's POV*~*~*

Here I am, sitting in my English class, listening—well, trying to listen—to a balding, over-weight man with glasses that take up his entire face. I have none of my friends in this class, so it is even more boring. I don't even have that guy Kaiba in here. Wait...Why would I want him here? I wonder if he did the art project.

For some reason, I want to yell, "I DON'T CARE!" right in that guy's face. I put my headphones on, and since I'm in the back of the room, he doesn't notice. Ah, Bring Me to Life by Evanescence. I love this song.

Oh no...who is taping me on the shoulder?

"Ms. White? MS. WHITE!!" I look up to see my teacher's red face fuming with anger at me. He pulls the headphones off of my head.

"These are not tolerated here. Do I make myself clear?" He throws them on the desk.

I nod meekly. "Yes sir." I put them in my bag. The entire class is staring at me. Luckily, class ends the moment he returns to the board. This is gonna be a great story to tell Joey in Religion class.

Yeah! Physics! Just what I want to learn in the morning! Once again, I am alone in this class. All I have is this guy with white hair who sits across from me. Like Tristan, he also stared at me...well; actually, he stares at the Scales...or the things behind them.

\\ Like Kaiba, he also reminds me of someone...but I can't remember who. \\

// Evil or good? // I asked

\\ Evil...unfortunately. \\

// You really hanged around the wrong people. // Justi didn't respond to me after that. I think that she was listening to my teacher go on about speed and motion.

*~*~*Religion Class--Elaya's POV*~*~*

Finally, a class with people I know. I sit beside Joey, with Téa on my other side. Yugi and Tristan are behind us. For this class, we have B lunch...that means that we go to lunch when half the class is done, and then we return back to learn more. Yeah! Note sarcasm.

After about an hour of reading the Bible, our teacher allowed us 10 minutes before lunch to 'get to know one another.' All of us chatted about nothing in particular. I told them about my musical mishap in English, and if they knew a boy with white hair and brown eyes.

"Oh, that's Bakura! He's a good pal of ours." explained Tristan.

"Phew...He was really freaking me out. He kept staring at me." I said. Yugi stayed silent and looked down at his shoes. He's hiding something from me.

*~*~*Yugi's POV*~*~*

/ Yami!? I need to talk to you. / This guy takes too long.

\ Yes Yugi? \

/ I think the evil Bakura is back, and he wants the Scales! / I exclaimed nervously / And probably the Puzzle too!! /

\ But Yugi, Marik sent the evil in Bakura to the Shadow Realm during Battle City, remember? \

/ He could be back...WE sent him to the Shadow Realm, and he returned to Bakura a little later during Duelist Kingdom. That evil IS the Shadow Realm! /

\ I am sorry Yugi, I do not know what to do. Ask Elaya if she noticed anything physically different when Bakura was looking at the Scales. \

/ Okay, thanks. We'll get to the bottom of this. /

"Yug? Are you alright? Speak to me!" Elaya said in a playful manner.

I looked up, "Yeah, I'm okay. Elaya? When Bakura was staring at you, did you notice any facial differences?

"No, I wasn't really paying attention to his face at all. I just saw out of the corner of my eye. Why?"

"Oh Yugi!" Téa cried, "You don't think that...that thing is back, do you?"

"It's a possibility Téa, I don't know." I explained.

"What 'thing'?" Elaya asked looking at all of us, trying to get an explanation out of us.

"Well," I started, "Not all of the seven Millennium Items are good. Bakura's had—or still has—an evil spirit in it. This spirit wants all seven Millennium Items and will use their combined strength to rule the world."

"That sounds like it came out of a typical horror flick." She said in response.

"This ain't no movie, Elaya." Joey explained, "This stuff is real!"

"And the evil found in the evil Items are spirits that you don't wanna mess with!" Tristan stated.

"I really need to get caught up...I'm so lost." She shook her head in confusion.

Before I could say anything else, a group of popular girls came up to us. Joey and Tristan smiled nervously and said hello. Melissa, the group leader, had her nose up to all of us.

"Hello lady, gentlemen." She said. Elaya rolled her eyes.

"Is that supposed to hurt my feelings?" Elaya said and wiped away a fake tear. The girls behind Melissa laughed at Melissa's joke, but stopped when Elaya responded.

"I was just making a casual observation. Why are you in the guy's uniform anyways?"

I could tell that Elaya couldn't stand people like this. "Because I don't want to be seen looking like that. No offense Téa, but I really don't like the girls' uniform."

Téa said quickly "None taken."

"Why don't you like it?"

"Do you like it?" Elaya questioned.

"As a matter of fact, I do. And so do all of my friends."

Elaya snorted, "Friends? Yeah, right. I just don't like the way the uniform is put together. On others, it looks good. On me, it makes me look like a slut." She eyes Melissa's uniform, seeing how short her skirt and how low her top were. "I can say the same for you."

The girl's behind Melissa gasped. Melissa just turned around on her heel, put her nose in the air and walked away.

"I don't know what you two see in her..." Elaya said looking at Joey and Tristan, who were watching Melissa's swinging hips as she walked away.

Together, her and Téa sighed "Men......" as an animé sweat drop appeared on their foreheads. I laughed.

For lunch, the gang and I went outside to eat. We sat on one of the benches that were behind an elm tree. Joey and Tristan went back into the cafeteria to get their lunch, while Téa, Elaya and I saved seats for them. I had a turkey sandwich with a banana, Téa also had a sandwich and an orange, and Elaya had a salad with a peach and a bag of chips.

We were halfway through our lunches when Téa pulled out her orange and began to peel it. Instantly, Elaya moved away from Téa.

"What's wrong?" Téa asked, "Are you allergic?" She looked so worried.

"Yep. My body can't digest oranges...or anything that comes from it. Like orange juice."

"What happens when you eat an orange?" Joey asked.

"My lungs stop working...I cough...then I throw up the stuff." She replied. Joey and Tristan hid their boxes of orange juice that they got from the cafeteria. Elaya laughed and said "Just don't put that stuff down my throat and I'll be fine."

Soon, a familiar voice called out from behind us, "Hello again lady and gentlemen." We all turned around to see Melissa and her gang of friends.

"That 'joke' is getting really old now, so stop." Elaya said.

Insulted, Melissa said "All of you are in our spot. Please move."

"I don't see your name on it." Elaya responded without looking up.

"Where's yours, smart-mouth?"

"Right here..." Elaya then pulled a black marker out of her bag and wrote 'E. White, Y. Motou, T. Taylor, T. Gardner, and J. Wheeler' "I guess that means that you can't sit here." She stretched out her legs to fill up the leftover space on the bench.

Melissa was furious that a new person was challenging her authority. Her brown eyes were fueled with anger as she got her orange juice box from her lunch tray and threw it at Elaya's chest. Then she just walked off.

"Elaya! Did any get in your mouth?" Téa cried.

"Thankfully, no...Stupid bitch." Elaya muttered as she tried to wipe the orange stain left on her white T-shirt that was under her uniform jacket. "Just great."

"Come on, "Téa started, "I'll take you to the washroom."

For the rest of the lunch period, it was just Joey, Tristan and me. The first words out of Tristan's mouth were, "Alright, a wet T-shirt!" Both of them high-fived.

*~*~*Elaya's POV*~*~*

"Just button your jacket up." Téa reasoned.

"Fine...it must suck when you dirty the girls' uniform. You can't hide it." I said as I buttoned two middle buttons. I looked even more like a guy.

"True. Well, on the plus side, you have gym next with me, so no will see it anyways, we wear gym uniforms."

"What do they look like?"

"It's a white shirt with the school insignia on it, with white shorts or track pants with a green trim. I think the boys have gym class at the same time as us..." Téa explained.

"Well, let's go back to Religion, the bell is gonna ring soon."

The rest of the religion class went by a lot faster than I thought it would of. When the bell rang, all of us headed towards the gym. I noticed that half the gym had the male classes, and the other half had the female classes.

"Later guys" Joey, Tristan and Yugi said as they went to their teacher.

"This way!" Téa called to me as she pulled me towards our teacher. Ms. Rosin...very muscular with black hair and brown eyes. She allowed the other girls to go to the change rooms and she gave me the proper uniform. I asked for the pants and thankfully, they had my size. I dressed quickly in the change rooms making sure that no one notices my burns. I noticed that I had Melissa and her group in my class...well; actually, Téa noticed them and told me to watch out.

After getting to know the teacher, she put us into teams for dodge ball. Then, she noticed that the guys were also about to play the same thing. After much chat, they both announced that it would be guys V.S. girls. Most of girls in my class groaned...I laughed.

Joey, Tristan and Yugi's teacher blew the whistle to begin. He also said, "Go easy on them." Our teacher yelled, "Show 'em what you got!" Well, we had nothing. Not even a minute went by when half of our team was out. I finally was able to catch the ball and hit two unsuspecting boys near the front. Téa got hit out by Tristan, and Yugi got out by a girl named Georgette...she was soon hit out by Joey. Pretty soon, I was all alone.

"Hey! Wanna surrender?" one of the guy's called out to me.

"Sorry...but I forgot my white flag at home today!" I chuckled as I hit one of the boy's ankles. Luckily, one of my teammates was able to get the ball from the boy's out of bounds area and hit Tristan in the lower leg. Slowly, my team came back to me. Then the bell rang...the teachers called it a tie.

After I re-changed back into my uniform, the teacher told me how much the gym uniform cost. Melissa gave me some snooty glances but Téa pulled me away before I could hurt her.

I went back to my locker to meet up with Joey, "Hey, nice game, eh?" I asked with a smile.

"Yeah, we so won." He said in reply

"Did not."

"Did too."

"Did not."

"Did too." This argument could have lasted for hours, but I stopped. He told me that he couldn't walk home today, he had a dentist appointment in 5 minutes and he couldn't be late—I still had to unpack my bags. Then, as Joey turned to leave, I saw the boy with the brown hair and blue eyes.

"Hey Kaiba, did you do the art thing for tomorrow?" I asked him as I walked up to him. He looked as if he didn't want to see me.

"Yeah...almost...I have to go." He then threw me aside like yesterday's lunch. "Don't forget to finish it." I whispered, "You jerk." I hate it when people think that other people are insignificant pieces of dust that they can just ignore...and when people think that they are too important to talk to anyone. I walked home slowly...it was a nice day today, didn't wanna waste it.

Unlocking my door, I stepped inside an empty house.

"Mom? Criminals? I'm home." I called out. My voice echoed in the vacant hallway. I went over the fridge to get a snack, when I noticed a Post-It note with a message on top of the fridge handle:

Hey Elaya, I won't be back until later so don't wait up. I have an important meeting today. Dinner is in the fridge on the second shelf. Finish your homework and don't go to bed late. Don't open the door to anyone you don't know and don't go out after 8:30. Okay?
Love you,
Mom.

Alright, no parents tonight! Party! No, just kidding...I wouldn't do anything like that.

\\ Well, what are you going to do tonight? \\ Justi asked me.

// I know! I'll get to know you a little bit better. Firstly, you didn't answer my last question: Have you and 'Yami' ever made-out? Secondly, I have a lot more questions like that...and no one is here. //

\\ I have an idea. \\

// Does it involve killing people? //

\\ No. Listen...instead of me telling you everything by word of mouth, why don't I show you my memories like a dream? Does that sound good? \\ I liked her idea...it would be like her autobiography, uncut, with a movie style to it.

// Sounds great. What do I do? //

\\ Get comfortable...lie down on a bed in your pajamas. In order to show you everything that I remember, I will need a lot of time. \\

// Lucky for you, Jusit, that I don't have any homework tonight. // Once again, I finished it all in class. I quickly went into my room and changed into my over-sized T-shirt and pajama bottoms.

// You know, I have never seen what you look like...can I? //

\\ Hold on. \\ I felt odd at that moment, as if something had left my soul. A soothing, gentle voice called out from behind me, "Look behind you."

I turn around to see a translucent image of her. She a little shorter than I was, with long orange hair that was tied up in a ponytail. She had green eyes that were slightly darker than mine and she was wearing a white tank top with white shorts. Her arms were decorated with gold bands and her legs were also given the same treatment. She wore sandals on her feet and behind her was a very powerful looking sword that had green jewels along the gold handle. "Happy?" she asked. She then vanished before I could respond.

\\ Don't worry, you'll see again in my memories. My earliest one is when I was eight years old. \\

// Sure thing! // I then laid down on the bed, pulled myself under the covers, shut my eyes and waited for one of her dreams to come. Soon, I was ancient Egypt, inside a small room that had a bed and many dressers. This was a room for someone who had a high title. Before long, a small voice says, "Goodnight mother, father. Goodnight Dieen!" and a young girl with black hair and green eyes entered the room.

The next few chapters are of Justi's past. They are mostly PG and Dieen is Justi's older sister. [Don't give it away!]
