Trial By Cards
Well here's another chapter for all of you. When rumors start spreading that Keora is going to the Kaiba Corp. Christmas Ball people start treating her better, but they are amazed when Duke Devlin shows up at school. When Keora goes to school dressed in something other then pants and shirts' boys start trying to ask her out, but she just ignores them. As always I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or any songs, I use.
Chapter 19: Duke Devlin and Fan Boys
" Hey Keora is it true that you were invited to the Kaiba Corp. Christmas Ball?" asked High. Keora smiled at him and just nodded her head. They had opted to walk home instead of ride in the limo. " Cool some strange girl named Telsis invited me," said High. " Did you accept?" asked Keora as she kept walking straight ahead. Somehow the fact that she was going to the ball had gotten around and now she had a fan club, an unwanted fan club.
" Yes, she seems nice," said High. " She's not a push over," said Keora. Cynara nodded and suddenly smirked and removed a CD from her coat pocket. " Looks like we got a little fun planned for the ball," said Cynara as she handed the CD over to Keora who nodded. " Jump 5," said Keora and started spinning around. " Spinnin' Around," said Cynara as High raised his eyebrows watching the antics of Keora. She stopped and shook her head back and forth. " Well, I'll be seeing . . . ," said Keora, but was suddenly pulled into an alley. " I guess the little Kaiba isn't always protected," said Mitch, but suddenly a pain shot thru his head and he looked at Keora. Her usual blue eyes were glowing soot black.
" What in the . . . ?" asked Mitch. Keora smirked evilly and her outfit changed into a black leather outfit like Yami's just the coat was longer and she had a blood red shirt on under it. " Look Mitch some people look like angels and they are, but some look like angels and they aren't," said Keora her voice higher, but commanding obviously Yama had taken control. " I don't believe it," said High as he looked at Keora whose wings were hanging down behind her. " Mysterious aren't I," said Yama and suddenly tossed Mitch against the wall and gave control back to her hikari. Keora looked at her hands and crumpled into a heap. " I'm worse then Bakura," said Keora as her outfit changed back to normal. She had worn a white dress that had a split all the way up to her mid hip. She had worn black boots and a long black coat.
She felt gentle arms envelope her and she looked into Ryou's gentle brown eyes. Suddenly she reached up to her eyes and popped a contact out of her right eye to reveal a brown eye the same color as Ryou's. " Two sides, two colors, two paths," whispered Keora as she threw the contact away. Ryou blinked and looked at her. Was this the girl he had meet in the woods or had she changed? " Lets get her home," said High as he picked Keora up. Ryou just nodded and looked at Keora as he sighed. Keora and him they both had Yami's that sometimes seemed nice and other times were as dark as soot.
At Cynara's Condo
" Ryou," whispered Keora quietly as she looked around her room. She looked down at her sheets that were two tones like her eyes. Half was white and the other black. She looked down at her outfit and blinked. She was in a black tank-top and loose PJ pants. " Yama?" asked Keora trying to contact her yami. " Ryou," answered Yama already knowing what Keora was going to ask. Keora's face turned deep red and she looked at the bedside table. " Damn," thought Keora. She heard amused laughter, but ignored it and fazed into a white leather copy of Yugi's outfit with a blue shirt on underneath with silver button things. She didn't have all the buckles, but she did have a choker and the diamond.
She grabbed some toast off the table as she skidded into the wall. She looked down at her feet and a pair of heeled boots appeared. She looked at her appearance in the mirror and she looked at her two-toned eyes and sighed.
" Blue for coldness, brown for caring," said Keora as she messed with her brown Ryou like hair. Finally she closed her eyes and when she opened them her hair was tied away with a white tie and she smiled. " Well lets see what happens today," said Keora as she ran out and jumped into the waiting limo. " I thought you were going to stay home," said Mazara. Keora laughed and looked at them. " Did you forget that I have to play the angel in the play?" asked Keora. They all blinked at her and she smirked. " Kidding," said Keora as she jumped out of the car and saw Telsis and High standing at the school door. " I'll see you," said Telsis and disappeared seeming to merge with the ground. " You people are all strange," said High. " Look whose talking mortal," said Keora jokingly as she ran to home room smiling as she heard Yama's snickers in her head.
Suddenly she turned around and raised her eyebrows. There stood Duke Devlin and wall of fan girls surrounded him. She smirked and suddenly saw her twin march into the mass and they all disappeared when Cynara glared at them. Well most of them at least. A couple of Aurora's flunkies hung around hoping to get a word or two with the Dungeon Dice Monsters creator.
" Hey Duke what are you doing here?" asked Keora as she walked up to him. " Hiya Silver long time no see," said Duke as he ruffled Keora's already messy hair. " Duke for the last time my name's Keora," said Keora. " Just joking Keora, you know that," said Duke. Keora had meet Duke before when she was younger, but they were friends. " So Duke did you come here to get eaten alive by fan girls or get Dungeon Dice monsters started?" asked Keora. " I came to see my date," said Duke. Cynara blushed and suddenly the warning bell rang and Cynara and Keora ran off to class.
" So Keora do you want to go out with me?" asked a boy and all Keora did was look at him her eyes shining blue. He blinked when he noticed that one of her eyes was brown and the other was blue. " Two hearts one destiny," said Keora quietly as she traced a circle around her right eye. " One heart two destines," echoed Yama from inside her head. Keora blinked and touched the diamond and remembered that she was holding a secret from everyone and she wasn't telling them anytime soon.
Later that Day
" Keora," whispered a voice in her head and Keora looked around. She was in the middle of Gym class and a voice had entered her mind. " Who?" asked Keora and suddenly she heard the Gym teacher yelling at her, but everything seemed so far away. " Kaiba get playing!" shouted the teacher, but Keora was just standing there and everything just spun before her eyes. " Ryou," whispered Keora and suddenly where she had once stood on the soccer field there was just empty air.
She appeared in Japan and what she saw made her blood boil. There lay Ryou, her Ryou, and a bully was kicking him and he was already beat up. There beside him lay Bakura, and Yugi who had obviously not had much luck with the bully being about 7 feet tall. She just watched as the bully threw Joey, Yami, and Tristan aside uselessly and then noticed Seto and Mokuba laying next to Yugi. She hissed and suddenly she didn't care that the bully was 7 feet tall, or that she was most likely going to be the biggest mess of bruises when she was done. All that mattered was that her friends, no, her family had been beat up.
" Jerk," hissed Keora and the bully turned around to face her. " What are you going to do little girl?" asked the bully. " Dear Jesus please help me," prayed Keora silently and then walked up to the bully. " You're strong," said Keora quietly almost inaudibly. " What did you just come to that conclusion?" asked the bully sarcastically. " Actually you remind me of a saying," said Keora. " What is that?" asked the bully. " The first will be last and the last will be first," said Keora as she walked over to her friends and wiped blood off of Ryou's face. " What are you trying to preach to me little girl?" asked the bully. " I'm trying to tell you that what you did was quite idiotic," said Keora not even turning around. " I can do what I like. They wouldn't give me their money so I beat it out of them," said the bully.
" You know that's called thievery," said Keora as she turned around her blue and brown eyes flashing. " What are you a goody-two-shoes or something?" asked the bully. " Nope, I'm the demon of your dreams, I'm the shadow of the shadows, I'm Keora the Fallen Light," said Keora and suddenly he noticed her brown eye. " Oh the little freaks got two different colored eyes," said the bully. " Look who's talking," said Keora starring at him. " Hikari let me take over," said Yama. " Not on your life," answered Keora and everything went black.
