Chapter 17: Poems and Annoying P.E. Teachers

" Dumb teachers of all things poetry I suck at poetry," said Keora as she crumpled up a piece of paper and tossed it with a bunch of other paper on the floor of her room. " Well how about write what your feeling," said Yama from her position on the bed holding a History book in annoyance. " I swear they missed the best 30 years in Egypt's history just because I told Ali to erase everyone's memory," said Yama in disgust and threw the book out the window. " I thought I told you not to throw the book out the window!" shouted Cynara from downstairs. " OK if you want me to write what I'm feeling here goes," said Keora. " Crazy Yami threw history out the 2nd story window and Cy's yelling from down stairs. I'm not going to retrieve the book for all I care it can float down the river and land on someone's door," said Keora.



Yama broke out laughing and suddenly smiled and looked at Keora. " You know I think I have an idea for you," said Yama. " Yes, what is it?" asked Keora irritably. " Fallen Light," said Yama smiling. " Yama!" shouted Keora and threw a book at Yama. " She's got a good idea!" shouted Mazara from downstairs.



" OK then here's an idea," said Keora and looked at a piece of paper.



"Someone once told me that fallen angels can't fly

They told me that lights couldn't die

Well I want to tell them something

Cause I believe the opposite thing



I say that fallen angels can fly

And that lights can die

I know this all because of one thing

My name's Keora and I'm the Fallen Light"



" Wow," said Yama and Zenda smiling. " So I take it I'm done," said Keora and yawned. " I guess," said Yama as Keora ran to the bathroom and locked the door. " Oh great yeah go sleep in the bathroom," said Yama sarcastically. " It's the only place where other people don't bug me," said Keora sharply as she fell asleep on her makeshift bed in the bathtub. " Damn hikari has some of the strangest quirks," thought Yama. " I thought you weren't supposed to swear," said Amara from behind her. Yama turned around to face her sister. " Well pardon me," said Yama her eyes flashing cold fire. " It's pardon my French!" shouted Keora angrily from the bathroom.



" What?" asked the two Yami's in unison. " The expression is pardon my French," whispered Cynara in their ears. All they did was blink and Cynara shook her head. " I guess we'll have to take you two to France someday," said Mazara and smiled. " Oh is that the place with the Eiffel Tower?" asked Zenda as she held up the History book she had retrieved and pointed to a picture of the Eiffel Tower. " Yes, that's France," said Mazara and smiled. " See isn't she smart," said Mazara as she hugged her Yami a little too tightly. " Uh, hikari can't breathe," said Zenda as she turned purple. " Oh, sorry Zen," said Mazara using her nickname for her Yami.



" Great just great I don't want to go to France," said Keora the next morning as she walked out of the bathroom and into her room and opened the closet. There on the floor was Yama asleep laying in the walk-in closet. " Yama, what are you doing sleeping in the closet?!" exclaimed Keora. Yama rubbed her eyes and blinked. " It's terrible to wake up with the light streaming in my face," said Yama as she rubbed her eyes. " Get your butt out of my closet!" shouted Keora. " No," said Yama simply and fell back asleep. " Get out now!" shouted Keora her voice rising. " I thought I told you NO," said Yama emphasizing the word no. " OUT!" shouted Keora and grabbed her Yami by the back of her purple dress and dragged her out of the closet.



" Just great and I thought I was exposed to be the dark one," said Yama as she waited for Keora to get out of the closet. When the enraged hikari finally emerged her outfit expressed her anger better then words ever could. She was dressed in a pair of black jeans that laced up on the sides. She had on a long sleeved shirt that was dark with laced up sleeves. She had used black leather cord to lace up her pants and silver to lace up the shirt.



She had on a pair of black leather flat heeled boots that went up to just below her knees. On her hands were a pair of fingerless silver gloves. Her hair was tied away from her face in a black tie and she had on a black coat that flowed out behind her like Seto's fancy white one. It had the initials KC on the collar just like Seto's. Two necklaces finished off the outfit first was the diamond and then a necklace with the words, " Fallen Hikari" on it.



Yama blinked and looked at her purple dress and then snapped her fingers and the diamond glowed and there stood Yama in a new outfit. Now she had on a purple copy of Yami's outfit just her jacket hung to her ankles and she had a necklace on that said, " Yami." Keora smiled and looked at Yama. " OK you have permission to go bug them today," said Keora and Yama disappeared as Keora walked downstairs.



" Where's Yama?" asked Amara. " Take a guess," said Keora shaking her head. With those words Amara and Zenda disappeared. " OK now what are we going to do?" asked Cynara quietly. " What do you mean?" asked Keora. " Without Yama and Amara we have a problem," said Cynara, but Keora smiled and whistled. Sol and Neo appeared out of nowhere dragging a dark looking angel with them. " Take her back!" shouted Keora as she put her hands up and pointed at the dark angel in dismay. " Hello Mistress," said the dark angel from her position laying on her back as she looked up. " Fallen your coming with us," said Keora and grabbed the angel by her hair and yanked her up so she was standing. " OK," said Fallen and closed her eyes and transformed into a human form with green eyes, black hair, and dressed in a black dress that hung to her knees.



" Sol your with Maze," said Keora coldly and Sol nodded and walked over to Mazara who towered a foot over the elf. " I, guess I'll just hang out with you two then," said Neo as he stood by Maze. " Sure," said Mazara and they heard the limo honk. " Come on guys can't miss the limo," said Cynara and they ran out they almost ran into a girl with gold eyes and very light blond hair. " Sorry," said the girl with a slight British accent. " No it's our fault do you want a ride?" asked Keora bitterly to the girl who just nodded. " I'm Cleo," said the girl quietly not looking at Keora afraid the girl would snap as she looked straight ahead as she sat in the limo. " Cleo, like in Cleopatra?" asked Cynara. " Yes," said Cleo nodding her head slowly.



" Well come on Cleo you can hang with us," said Keora her voice softening. " I would like that," said Cleo as she got out and Hope and Makaira greeted them as they looked around a bit shakily and then noticed Cleo and Fallen. " Hey Katerina who're your new friends?" asked Hope smiling. " This is Cleo...," said Cynara trailing off. " Cleo Main," said Cleo softly in a whisper. " I'm Fallen, Fallen Aline," said Fallen smiling. " I thought I told you Kaiba, we have enough riffraff as it is," said Aurora and suddenly Keora's temper broke.



" Get your sorry, American hide out of here Seasons!" shouted Keora as her eyes flashed red and the diamond around her neck glowed and her wings came out. Her outfit flashed from pants and a shirt to a black robe and her hair came undone. Everyone's eyes flew open as they looked at Keora. Suddenly tho Keora feel over gasping. There behind her stood Mitch holding a wood pole. Keora looked at him her eyes returning to blue and feel over being caught by Cleo. " I may be only a girl, but I have a sense of justice that has been the downfall of more then one person," said Cleo thru clenched teeth. Suddenly the air behind Keora shimmered and a black clad figured appeared and looked at Mitch.



" You have no clue what you've done in hurting her," said the figure as it took Keora in it's arms. Keora started to shimmer and the mark on her head disappeared slightly. " I can only do so much," said the figure and disappeared as it handed Keora's limp form over to Cleo who in turn handed Keora over to Hope and Makaira.



2 hours later in the nurses office

" I guess trying to play perfect doesn't always work," said Keora as she rubbed the back off her head. " What did you do to make that Mitch so mad anyway's?" asked the nurse.

" Nothing except came to school," said Keora as she sat up tho her body resented the action. " Well I bet your going to be happy that he was suspended," said the nurse. Keora sighed and looked at her. " Great now I'll be getting into cat fights with Aurora Seasons," said Keora. " Oh Aurora was also suspended," said the nurse.



In Mazara's Class

" Hey Maze I heard about your sister is she OK?" asked Link. Maze nodded to Link and hissed when Alex tapped her on the shoulder. He smiled meekly and handed her a card. " I heard about Keora, and I'm sorry about my sister and her

boyfriend," said Alex as Mazara opened the card up and gasped. On the cover was the Light Magician with the Blue Eyes and then Change of Heart behind them. " I heard that Keora liked the Light Magician and I know that she also likes the Blue Eyes and I got the one with Change of Heart, because I've had a change of heart about you," explained Alex. " Thank you," said Mazara quietly and put the card in her book bag for later.



" I pretty much figured that you were taken before you ever came here," said Link quietly and Mazara smiled to herself. Ever since she had seen Kenji she had felt a special pull to him. " No I don't have a boyfriend, but my hearts already held by someone," said Mazara quietly. Link nodded and looked at her. " Thanks for being truthful Mazara," said Link.



With Keora

" I guess your good to go just don't get into anymore fights," said the nurse. " Yeah right," thought Keora as she walked out and ran into a boy and feel over. " Oh I'm sorry Ms.," said the boy. Keora blinked and looked at him. " No it's my fault and don't call me Ms. my name is Keora," said Keora as she stood up. " I'm Horus, but everyone calls me " High"," said High. " Horus like in the ancient Egyptian god?" asked Keora. " Yes, my parents were archaeologists," said High. " Uh, what do you mean were?" asked Keora hoping what she suspected wasn't true. " Before we moved here and my mom became a History teacher and my dad started working in the museum," said High looking at her questionably. " Sorry, I'm just used to the worse," said Keora.



" What do you mean?" asked High. " I was put up for adoption before I was even a year old and then my adopted parents got killed in a car accident when I was 8," said Keora.

" So did you ever find out who your real parents were?" asked High. " Yes, my parents were Seto Kaiba's original parents," said Keora. High blinked and then just nodded and looked at her. " Why were you in the nurses room in the first place?" asked High. " I don't even want to mention it lets just say I got mad at one very annoying cheerleader and her boyfriend hit me over the head with a bamboo pole," said Keora and walked off to class. High just stood there wondering who this mysterious girl was.



Keora walked into P.E. class and sat down next to Hope.

" How nice of you to join us Ms. Kaiba," said Mr. Jonathan. " I was just about to start class, but because your from Japan I bet you have no clue how to play soccer," said Mr. Jonathan.

With that statement Keora who had been referred to as an angel the first day of school had jumped out of her seat and had ran up and used her head to get the soccer ball away from Mr. Jonathan. " For a matter of fact Mr. Jonathan I suck at soccer," said Keora smirking. " But then again this is America maybe I'll do better," said Keora and passed the ball to Agua who got it and passed it to Cynara. Mr. Jonathan looked at Keora as she played the game like it didn't matter one bit to her if she won or not.



" That's right I don't care, it's a game," said Keora, but kicked the soccer ball in the goal and smiled. Mr. Jonathan was annoying and she was going to prove that people from Japan were not as weak as he thought. " Oh and I thought that you weren't exposed to treat people unfairly cause of race, and stuff like that," said Keora tauntingly as she again tried to score a goal and missed. She lost, but for once she could care less. She had showed that teacher that girls weren't as weak as he thought.



With Maze

" I hate cafeteria food," said Mazara as she took a bite and spit it out. " Your not very ladylike are you," stated Alex.

" Nope," said Mazara as she threw most of her lunch away and produced a candy bar and ate it. " OK I guess I'll just bring my own lunch from now on," said Mazara. Alex and Link just nodded and then gagged when a girl approached their table. Mazara looked at the red haired girl with black stripes in it and just smirked. " Oh hello Medallion," said Mazara. " Oh I didn't know that the Jap could talk," said Medallion. " What did you call me?" asked Mazara her hair standing on end. " A Jap," said Medallion.



" Oh thank you," said Mazara and turned back around and ignored Medallion. " No one ignores me," said Medallion. " Well I guess I'm not No one then," said Mazara sarcastically and went back to talking to Link and Alex. Medallion huffed off to bug someone else. Mazara heard commotion from another table and saw Medallion being held about a foot away from Sol by Neo. " Let go of me elf boy," said Medallion. " Names Neo and you leave Sol, Alex, Maze, and Link alone," said Neo thru clenched teeth. He had to keep his powers at bay or there wouldn't be a cafeteria left. Sol slowly walked up and placed a hand on Neo's shoulder. " Put the giant down Neo," said Sol her left hand clenched in a fist. Neo dropped Medallion in a heap on the floor and left.

Suddenly a bunch of boys surrounded Neo and Sol. " I think I'm moving back to Japan," said Neo as he looked at the group of 10 or so boys all at least 4 inches taller then him. " I agree Neo," said Sol thru clenched teeth from where she knelt on the ground holding her stomach cause a boy had punched her. " Hey don' t you know the rules your not exposed to hit a girl," said Neo as he looked at his wife. " What's it to you elf boy?" asked one of the boys. " Trash," spat Medallion at him as two boys hit him and knocked him to his knees. " I thought this was a free country," came a voice from behind Medallion and the others. There stood 5 people glaring at them. " Oh more Jap's to beat up," said one of the boys.



There before them stood Mazara, Yugi, Keora, Cynara, and Ryou. The Yami's stood in the shadows watching seeing what would happen. All of them blinked at that, but smirked quietly. Those boys didn't know what they were dealing with. Suddenly Keora feel over and they looked at her as she held her head. " I thought he was suspended," said Mazara thru clenched teeth. There stood Mitch and Aurora with a bunch of 8th graders. " Stay away from my little sister," said Mitch as he spat on Keora. " Mistress," said Fallen suddenly and was holding Mitch above her head. " Listen to me Trash before I throw you in one of those monsters that live around here. I never want to see your sorry hide again," said Fallen. Suddenly Bakura appeared and knocked Fallen over the head. " You heard here," said Bakura harshly and Mitch and Aurora just laughed.



" What do we have here?" asked Aurora. Suddenly Yugi walked over and looked at them. " I bet you two recognize me," said Yugi and the blinked. " Yugi, Yugi Motou," said Mitch in amazement. " Yes, now leave my friends alone," said Yugi and the two ran out. " Get us out of here Yami," thought Yugi and Yami obliged when he noticed all the fan girls. Now the only people that remained were Yama, Zenda, and Amara with all the other kids. Finally a teacher appeared and noticed Sol and Neo and how beat up they looked. " Who did this?" asked the teacher. Alex, Mazara, and Link appeared dragging the leader of the boys. " Oh Mr. Rogue," said the teacher and the boy followed the teacher to the principals office.

" Oh Keora, Alex has a gift for you," said Mazara as she handed over the card. Keora looked at it and smiled and looked at Alex and looked inside the card. " Get well soon Keora. I am so sorry about Mitch and Aurora I think their jealous of you. Please forgive them if you can find it in your heart too," read Keora out loud and smiled. " I forgive them on one condition," said Keora. " Yes," said Alex. " That they stop treating me like Trash," said Keora and walked outside to recess.



Everyone else just blinked wondering what she meant. " I guess that girl will always be mysterious," said High. They all just nodded and watched Keora. Everything about her was mysterious well except that she had wrote that poem for nothing cause she had missed English class.



Ok a few facts about this chapter. I don't stereotype, but I needed a few people that got in trouble. Keora's not perfect by far and now you know that she can be caught off guard. Well if you read the story then review it please.
