The Fifth Champion: Aw! I figured that Anat's parents were going to die the moment I heard their house was on fire... At least her brother lived.
Once again, I thought that this was cute. Seto's already starting to change, I can't wait until he starts to like her... This is very interesting, keep writing!
Speedy-anime-angel: not bad, the plot went rather fast, and well leaving all for the children to decide what to do is kind of unrealistic, but other than that, not very bad.
Chapter 3- Party at Kaiba Mansion"Well, this is the place," said Noa getting out of the limousine. Anat and Badru stepped out as well and gasped. The mansion was huge!! You could probably have fifteen sleepover parties in there and still have enough room for a high school dance!
"What are you standing there for come on!" urged Noa. The two Egyptians quickly followed the teen into the huge mansion. They looked here and there inside. A boy ran out to greet them.
"There you are Noa!" yelled the boy.
"This is my stepbrother, Mokuba," said Noa. The boy waved. "Mokuba this is…uh…"
"Anat and Badru," said Anat.
"Right," said Noa. "Anyway, LET'S PARTY!!" Mokuba flipped a switch and suddenly a DDR game popped out. "Whose up for a game of DDR?" Mokuba got on the platform and picked out the easiest song. The dance started up and Mokuba did it flawless. He made it through several rounds, but lost on the first medium song.
"MY TURN!!!" declared Noa flipping to the first song. He too passed several rounds flawless, but lost on the first hard song. Badru took a shot, but couldn't make it past the easy songs.
"Darnit," said Badru as he got off the platform. "How come they call it easy?"
"Because the other songs are harder," said Noa simply. "MY TURN AGAIN!!!"
"Hey that's not fair!" said Mokuba. "You already went!"
"Who cares!? It's my turn again!"
"NOT!!"
"YES!!!"
"NOT!!!"
"YES!!!"
"NOT!!!"
"YES!!!"
"NOT!!"
"YES!!!"
"NOT!!!"
"YES!!!"
"NOT!!!"
"YES!!!"
"NOT!!!"
"YES INFINITE!!!"
"What about me?" asked Anat. Both boys stopped arguing and mentally slapped themselves. They forgot that Anat still hadn't gotten a turn!
"Okay, your turn," said Mokuba. Anat got on the platform and flipped to the easiest. The music started up again. This time Anat did the whole song flawless! She could even do fast movements in the center block she was standing on in between steps.
"WHOA!!!" shouted Noa and Mokuba. Anat flipped to the next song. Once again she did it flawless this time adding hand motions to her steps. This time she did several belly dances moves in between or with steps.
"WHOA!!! THAT WAS PERFECT!!!" gasped Noa. But Anat wasn't done surprising the two Kaiba brothers. She didn't make one mistake on the next songs. Even the mediums and the hard ones couldn't stop her. Finally there was the hardest song on the list.
"You really are going to try the hardest song?" asked Noa. Anat nodded and started up the music. GO!! Anat was dancing her hardest as the music went faster and faster trying to trip her off. She didn't even touch the bar once as the tempo went from fast to super fast.
Mokuba and Noa stared at the girl in shock. This girl could dance even faster than Téa! When it looked as though Anat would miss a step she stepped on the pad and was right on cue. She still was doing hand motions with her moves and all sorts of jumps and spins in between.
"NEW HIGH SCORE!!!" Noa gasped as he saw Anat's name appear in first place on the high score board. Anat had struck a new record on DDR.
"H…how'd you do that?" gasped Mokuba. Anat smiled and did a back flip off the platform. She landed perfectly on her tiptoes and pushed off from there. She somersaulted in the air twice and landed soundlessly on her own two feet.
"I took gymnastics, hip hop, belly dancing, and Ballet," said Anat simply shrugging slightly. "They all relate to performing arts so that's why I can do good on DDR."
"Dang…" said Mokuba.
"Hey what's the racket about?" All four jumped to see Seto Kaiba staring at them with a tinge of anger in his blue eyes. Noa and Mokuba gulped. Busted.
"WILL YOU IDIOTS KEEP IT DOWN!!?!" yelled Kaiba a vein popping out of his head. "IN CASE IF YOU HADN'T NOTICE I'VE GOT PILES OF WORK TO DO AND I CAN'T WORK WITH A HUGE RACKET GOING AROUND!!!"
"I didn't know you were working at age 18, Seto," said Anat politely. Mokuba jolted a bit. Did she just call his big brother Seto? Usually people would call him Kaiba, but that was new.
"How can you not know?" said Noa. "Seto's the head of Kaiba Corporation. That company invented the dueling disks, didn't you know?" The two Egyptians shook their heads. Mokuba and Noa did an anime faint.
"Hey Mokuba," said Kaiba. "What are those two doing here?" He pointed at the two Egyptians who were still confused about Kaiba owning a huge corporation.
"I was bored so I decided to invite them…" began Noa.
"Is your name Mokuba, virtual boy?" demanded Kaiba (A/N: My teachers say that all the time to people).
"I was bored so I thought they could come over and play," said Mokuba. "Besides we were just playing DDR." Kaiba sighed. This is the problem with having two brothers. They always caused a racket.
"Fine, you four can play, BUT KEEP THE NOISE DOWN!!" yelled Kaiba his blue eyes blazing with anger. Clearly, he was pissed. "Got it?"
"Got it big brother," said Mokuba and Noa shakily. The CEO walked, no stomped, back into his office. When he was gone the two Kaiba brothers sighed with relief. Their older brother (or stepbrother in Noa's case) could be such a heartless guy.
"Hey, anybody up for a game of cards?" asked Noa shuffling a deck of playing cards. Everyone else nodded his or her heads in agreement.
"Let's play War!" said Mokuba.
"No, that takes forever," said Noa. "How about Speed?"
"No, you always win in less than two minutes," said Mokuba. "What about Jelly?"
"No, that takes forever, too," said Noa. "What about…"
"What about Egyptian War?" Mokuba and Noa stopped arguing.
"Egyptian what?" asked Noa questions marks popping everywhere in his mind.
"Egyptian War," repeated Anat. "We'll teach you how." Anat took the cars from Noa and shuffled the deck. She passed out the cards and left the last one face-up in the center of the pile, a four of spades.
"I'll go first," said Badru. He flipped the top card and placed it on top of the card in the center, a two of clubs. Thinking that he kind of knew what to do Noa flipped, a six of diamonds. Mokuba flipped next, a queen of hearts. Anat flipped two cards, a six of spades and a king of diamonds.
"Hey, how come you flipped two cards?" asked Noa.
"If someone flips a royal then the next person has to flip a certain amount of cards," said Anat. "Jacks and Jokers you flip one, Queen you flip two, Kings three, and Aces four. If none of your cards are a royal then the pile goes to the person who flipped the royal."
Badru flipped three cards, a three of clubs, a four of diamonds, and a jack of hearts. Noa flipped another jack. In the blink of an eye, Anat slapped her hand on the pile. She slid her hand and the pile back.
"Hey, what gives?" demanded Mokuba.
"When two cards of the same are placed on the pile all the players slap their hands onto the pile," said Anat. "The person who slaps first gets the pile."
Anat flipped a six. Badru flipped a four. Mokuba flipped an ace. Noa flipped four cards, a four, an eight, a two, and a queen. Anat flipped a six and a king. Badru flipped a four, a two, a nine, and a jack. Mokuba flipped another jack. SMACK!! This time everyone was prepared. Noa's hand was on the bottom so Noa got the pile.
20 minutes later…
The game was still going. Mokuba and Badru already lost all their cards and the game was now between Anat and Noa. Six, five, eight, two, queen, six, king, jack, king, king, SMACK! Anat got the pile.
"Grrrr, I lost!" cried Noa.
"Heh, actually you did better that some grown-ups that we know," said Badru giggling. "We've met some twenty-year-olds who lasted no more than ten minutes against my sister."
"Well, gamers do run in my family too," said Noa.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN!?!" yelled Mokuba four veins popping out of his fists and head. "ARE YOU SAYING THAT I'M A LOSER IN GAMING!?!?" Noa shook his head vigorously an anime sweat drop on his head. Suddenly Anat gasped staring at her watch.
"OH RA!!! Badru and I have to go!!" cried Anat. "Thanks for the fun Noa and Mokuba!! Come on Badru! Let's go!" Anat grabbed her brother by the hand and with a quick nod of thanks started to run out of the door.
"Wait!!" called Noa. The two Egyptians stopped running and turned around completely startled. Noa lowered his hand trying to calm himself. "Um…well, why do you call my stepbrother Seto? Everyone else calls him Kaiba."
"Well, isn't it proper? I've been to America before and they all call everyone by their first names even in class," said Anat. "I didn't know here in Domino everyone called Seto his forename."
"Oh, well, I was…just…curious that's all," stammered Noa.
"Well, we gotta go! I've got something to do," said Anat. "Thank you! Bye!"
TO BE CONTINUED…So, how was it? I know, sidetracks from the real story, but I couldn't help it. Anat and Badru just had to cheer up somehow. Don't worry folks. SETO WILL BE MAKING HIS MOVE SOON!! Can you R&R for me please? I ALREADY SAID NO FLAMES!!!!
