Hey peoples! Hope you liked the last chapter. Kind of odd and
slightly disturbing at parts, leaning two people to tell me I need a beta-
reader. If anyone would like to apply for this position, no pay but lots of
love! ^_^. If you do, you can IM on AIM at RequiemForJokers or
OneLostHarpyLady. ^_^ Sankou!

The Oracle then bowed her head slightly and closed her eyes, trying to concentrate. She knew it couldn't have been the Pharaoh, nor the Pharaoh's little friend. The boy, Honda Hiroto, his lover wouldn't have the knowledge. would he? She considered this before kneeling down and letting out a prayer.
"Oh Greek Gods of limited existence. I believed in you and as atonement for my sins, the God above sent me back here. This is the punishment of my ways, but cursed not am I for knowing the future but cursed are those who laugh at the future." She then stood and felt the scar gently running along her neck. It was really the reason she couldn't talk, since when she'd been killed thousands of years ago, the blade has sliced her vocal cords. They hit together when she tried to talk but it wasn't audible.
She felt a soft hand on her shoulder and she raised her head slightly, wondering what they wanted.
'What is it...?' She let out a small connection between her and the young woman.
'I was wondering if you were hungry?'
'No thank you.' With that the apprentice turned and left, her robe gently rustling on the polished white marble floor. The oracle sat down, before laying back, her white hair pooling out around her body. She was alone again. All alone, with no one to talk to, no one to understand her. She didn't have long to dwell on it, because the darkness around her eyes ( A/N- referring to her blindness) was filled with images. She saw a brown haired boy and a blonde haired boy. They were kissing gently, when the door opened. The brown haired boy turned from the blonde and looked at the door. Who ever was there surprised them and they hastily broke apart. The Oracle tried to see who it was but she could not. She sighed as the vision faded and she stood, wondering what to do. It didn't seem very important but she wasn't sure.
She finally decided to ignore it, before laying back and falling into her world of nothingness.
Jou looked up at his father, who was drunk again. Jounouchi's father stepped forward drunkenly, but his punch hit it's target ; Jou's face. Jou slammed back, crying out in pain as he felt his nose break. He held it gently with one hand, before grabbing a beer bottle and pulling an arm in front of his head. He smashed the bottle against his own arm, so that the liquid sprayed into Jou's fathers eyes. His father yelled and reared back, holding his eyes, as Jou got up and ran towards to door. Jou's father cursed at him and tried to stop him but Jou was already out the door and running down the steps. He kept running, until he got out into the rain. He looked up at the sky, breathing heavily.
'Great Jou, where are you going to go now? I cant got to Yugi's, or Anzu's. Honda is probably at Otogi's.. Seto! It's worth a shot.' Jou glanced at his watch, which read a hazy 7:30, before running towards a bus stop, soon becoming soaking wet. He waited 15 minutes for a bus before getting it to the nearest stop by Seto's house. Jounouchi began running, his heart pumping and his lungs burning. He kept running until he saw Seto's house come into view. His eyes widened and he tried to go faster. He finally ran up the steps, before collapsing against the door. He stayed there for a while, on his knees, with his head against the door. He finally stood, staring at the black painted door. He gently knocked, waiting for an answer. The door slowly opened, showing Jou, with soaked hair, clothes and body. The butler gracefully let Jou in before telling him that 'Mr.Kaiba is not in at the moment'. Jou nodded slightly before sitting down at a chair offered to him and gladly accepting the towel. He rubbed it against his hair, slowly drying it out.
Kaiba came back a bit later, walking in confidently, his trademark white coat barely moving, as if frozen. He glanced at Jou before handing his briefcase to the butler and walking over. Jou looked up at him and smiled a little.
"Hey."
"Hello. Why are you here? You're bleeding too." Seto knelt down and gently licked away the blood running down Jou's cheek. Jou smirked a little and gently pushed him away.
"I had a fight with my dad. Can I crash here for a bit?" Seto nodded before taking Jou's hand and taking him upstairs. Seto closed the door gently, before shedding his trench coat.
"You should take a warm shower. It'll warm you up."
"Are you saying that because you care or just want me to shed my clothing?"
"A little bit of both." Jou grinned slightly and slid his shirt off gently.
Seto walked into the adjoined bathroom, flicking the faucets into the action. Hot water poured out and Seto added a bit of cold, so Jou wouldn't melt. He frowned slightly before two warm arms encircled his waist. He glanced down, blushing lightly as Jou used his tongue to push Seto's shirt up and then lick the skin. He gently massaged it before his head was pulled up into a tight kiss. Seto pushed Jou against the wall roughly, suckling his tongue gently.
Jou let out a muted moan before giving in completely.

Seto slowly opened his eyes to red lights. He peered at them cautiously before poking them. This set it off, and it began bleeping insistently. He groaned and slowly opened his eyes. The door opened and he butler came in.
"Its time to get up." The man was used to a not very pleasant response but he got an alarm clock chucked at his face. He ran out and yelled through the door.
"But, Mr. Kaiba, it's 6:30, time to get up!"
"Go away, you disturbing pedophile! It's Saturday morning and if you leave me alone, I'll dismember you and if that doesn't kill you, I'll burn you at the stake and feed your ashes TO SCHOOL CHILDREN!" Yelled Seto, before laying back on his pillow and rolling over, bumping into a warm body. He looked down at the blonde mess of hair, the only visible part of Jou. He smirked slightly and pulled the blankets away from Jou's face, looking at him in wonder.
He gently kissed the blondes cheek before standing up and sliding on some boxers. He glanced out the window before opening the curtains completely.
Jou groaned slightly and rolled onto his back, covering his eyes with an arm.
"Oi! No fair." He slowly sat up, rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand. He slowly opened an eye and glanced at Seto.
"Come on, I wanna sleep." He flopped back, muttering obscenities. Seto shook his head, smirking some. He crawled onto the bed and lay his head on Jou's stomach. Jounouchi looked at him and laughed some, brushing a few strands of hair out of his face. He looked at Seto and closed his eyes.
'Screw some stupid Oracle. No one cares anyway. I prefer to live here and now and not in some stupid visions of hers.' He thought peacefully. -------------------------------------------------------------------------\-- -----------------------------------------------------
Thank you people, and please let me no if you wanna beta read. ^_~.
