Fairy Tales in Waltz
as told by Mai Valentine
The clip clopping of high heels was heard on the cool autumn sidewalk. The golden hair of Mai Valentine swayed in the wind as the girl walked through downtown Domino. Three large shopping bags were grasped in her silky white hands. She walked down the steps and into the subway station. She glanced at a map quickly before heading to a terminal with a big A on the sign in front.
"Alright, if I take the A to the E to the F to the G4 then I can get home in no time." she stated.
With her last thoughts she walked onto the train and found a seat. She pushed her things into the overhead compartment and sat on the empty seat below. The subway train was filled with people. Old men were talking about the weather, a young teenage girl was talking on her cell phone and children were chasing each other around the subway car. They were two young girls one a little older than the other. They sifted through all the people and chased each other. The younger girl was sent flying into Mai as the subway lurched forward. Mai sighed and brought the girl to her feet.
"You should be more careful hun. You might get hurt." Mai scolded.
The girl smirked at Mai and sat in the seat next to her. The girl's friend soon joining her. Mai went and sat down next to them. They sat in silence as the train crept swiftly across the tracks.
"What's your guys' names?" Mai questioned the two girls.
"I'm Aura!" chimed the older one.
"And I'm Kristina Shadowflame!" chirped the younger girl.
Mai managed to twist a smile.
'What odd names.' she thought to herself.
Just then everything went dark. The train halted to a stop. Mai winced as she flew into the wall. She looked up to see Aura and Shadow crying beside her.
"It's alright you two. I'm sure it's just a minor problem." she said calmly.
The girls relaxed and became quiet. A voice came over the intercom.
"Sorry, we are having a minor setback. Stay calm and we will have you back in no time. I repeat please stay calm." the voice echoed.
Mai grunted. She had planned on stopping at another mall before going home. So much for that.
"Tell us a story!" the girls next to Mai chorused.
"I don't know....."
"Please!?"
"Alright here goes......
*************
The Legend Formally Known as Sleepy Hallow
Okay give me a second to think...Okay well there was a small town. It was the dumps hun. It didn't have a mall, or a movie place, or anything that normal people would enjoy. The town was in the middle of nowhere. It was small to say the least and it was an old town with closely nit ties of people. The only thing that was remotely close to interesting was the legend. The legend went like this....
"Every night after dark the headless horseman haunts the town. Chasing down any one who wonders the streets after dark. Though nobody is sure what happens to all of his victims, it is said that they disappear without a trace...You all can guess what happens right?" A man's deep voice questioned several villagers as he raised his index finger and traced a path across his neck. The villagers were all in silence as they listened to the man in the center of the crowd. He was tall and had short spiky hair that met in a point at the top.
"Are you scaring the children again Tristan Brom?" came a chuckle from the back of the crowd.
"That's Brom Bones to you Duke Crane!" retorted the burly man.
"That's Ichabod to the likes of you as well!" snapped the guy.
These two lugs were known as Brom Bones, the town bully and the leader of the village gang, this guy was pretty dense; the other was Ichabod crane, a school teacher, he was kind but with an egocentric twist. Unfortunately these two fellas had a crush on the town knock out Katrina Serenity Van Tassel. Everyone called her Katrina though. She was the daughter of the Duke of Wheeler, otherwise known as Joey. Joey was very protective of her daughter and would always provide the best for her. Though this lug really doesn't affect the story so just forget the monkey.
**********
"ACHOO!"
"Joey you sneezed all over my cards!" Yugi cried.
"Sorry Yug, I don't know what came over me...."
************
As Ichabod walked to his home that afternoon, his mind was filled with thoughts of Katrina. He sighed and set his things down on his desk. Pencil scratches were heard as Ichabod wrote his feelings in to his diary.
'Dearest Katrina, my love for you could fill a thousand oceans. I only wish you knew of these feelings I have for you. I promise one day we will be together. I will whisk you off your feet and we will move to....'
Ichabod sighed as he looked at his writing. He smiled and sighed once more.
"Kentucky..." he finished allowed.
******************
Brom Bones also had feelings for Katrina. Things had actually been going well. Then that monster Ichabod moved into town. All the town's women fell for that guy. They all swooned after the poor school teacher. Katrina, she had started to ignore Brom soon after Ichabod arrived. It pained him to think that his beautiful flower would be stolen from under his nose.
So the two block heads developed a mutual dislike...
Bones would often threaten Ichabod. Sometimes they would get into little tussles, but nothing too serious. They would often be found on the streets of the town bickering like a couple of morons.
"Skinny runt! I'll take you out girly man!" bellowed Bones.
"Oh, is that a challenge? Well bring it on! That is, if you think your man enough." taunted Ichabod as he flicked a lock of black hair from his face, only to have it return to it's original position.
So the two teased each other back and forth, neither wanting to back down. A couple of block heads if you ask me.....
"Jerk!"
"Loser!"
"Moron!"
"Dimwit!"
"Ugly!"
"Stupid!"
"Stop it you two!" cried a feminine voice.
Ichabod and Brom turned around to see the beautiful Katrina with a frown on her face. The two instantly stopped fighting and smiled sweetly at her.
"Will you two stop!?" she snapped. She knew full well what they always fought over.
"We'll stop Miss Katrina." the two lugs chorused.
Katrina smiled and shot them both a wink. Then she turned around to leave.
"Idiot..." mumbled Bones.
To this Ichabod took some dice from his pocket and proceeded to chuck them at bones.
"Why you!" Brom bellowed.
Katrina quickly turned around to see them fighting once more. She scowled and gave a small pout. The boys instantly stood stock straight and smiled back at her embarrassedly.
"Hmm, anyway. Ichabod, my family wants to invite you to a tea party tonight. Will you come?" she said sweetly.
"Of course!" he replied.
"Okay be hear at six!"
With that Ichabod dashed home to get ready, leaving Brom Bones to gape.
**************
"Okay! I finally get to confess my love for dear sweet Katrina!" Ichabod cheered.
He was walking down the dark streets of Sleepy Hallow when a thought ran into his head.
********"Every night after dark the headless horseman haunts the town. Chasing down any one who wonders the streets after dark. Though nobody is sure what happens to all of his victims, it is said that they disappear without a trace...You all can guess what happens right?"
As Ichabod was walking home, Bones continued his story.
"It is said that if you're chased by the headless horseman that you should head for the church. The ghost can't cross the bridge there........"*************
Ichabod flushed all thoughts of ghosts from his mind. Headless horseman?
Yeah right.......
*************
"Okay I want to be proper.........I should come on a horse......" Duke thought aloud.
He spied a farmer's horse in the field in front of him. He smirked, perhaps he could just borrow that horse?
**********
When he arrived at the party, the Van Tassels were surprised to see a horse. They ignored it however someone unexpected was at the party.
Bones.......
So the night went on like any other party would. Though Katrina was being awfully friendly to him. After dinner she even gave him a kiss, which shocked everyone, mainly Ichabod.
He looked behind the beautiful girl to see Brom Bones steaming at the ears. What he then saw shook his faith. Katrina turned around to Bones and winked, she then grasped onto Ichabod's shoulder. Ichabod knew right then and there that Katrina didn't love him. She was only making Bones jealous. He carried on the rest of the night in silence.
************
He left the party later that night and was on his way home. The clopping of his horse was all that was heard in the night air. Ichabod looked up when he heard an unusual noise. He looked to his horse, his feet were moving rather slow, but what he heard was the fast footprints of a horse......
He looked behind him to see a ghostly white man on a ebony horse chasing them. He gasped and urged his horse to go faster. The chase continued into the forest. The only thing that raced through Ichabod's head was getting to the church, he would be safe there. As the holy building crept closer and closer so did the headless horseman. As they raced over the old bridge Ichabod slowed down. He turned around to see if the horseman had disappeared. Much to his horror, he hadn't. So with the evil killer on his tail he dashed down the dirt path.
"Great! Stupid Brom and his fairy tales!" Ichabod cried as he went.
With the gap between them closing in the headless horseman began to laugh. It was an evil laugh and it sent chills throughout the forest. He then raised his hand that held the glowing pumpkin head and threw it towards Ichabod.
Ichabod turned around in horror as the head flew. The head slammed into Ichabod and knocked him from his horse.
That was the last time Ichabod would be seen again.....
**********
Now as the story goes hun, they only found Ichabod's headband. They don't know what happened to the guy. Though Katrina ended up with Brom Bones who apparently was seen walking out of the very same forest that dawn......
**************
"That's it girls." Mai sighed.
"That was good!" cheered Aura.
"Yeah!" cheered Kristina.
Then the lights flickered on and the train began to move.
"Sorry for the inconvenience folks. We will now continue our scheduled route." came the voice over the intercom.
"Thank heavens, I thought I was going to have to tell another story......"
*************
Seto: That's the end. Um review you all and Urban legends will be up on Halloween or the night before that. Send in your favs and I'll see what I can do about getting them up! No really gory ones though, Mamono is a chicken.... Yeah I think that's all.....I guess thanks to all you readers.....
Yeah Mamono is still gone. I suppose I should go find her.......
*Grins evilly*
Later......
