. She suddenly, in the blink of an eye, transformed back to her usual
self, and took her seat once again. Marik smirked and followed her.
Kira thought the worst was over so far, but she was sadly mistaken. Her lunch hour was a complete hell ride, and to top it off, Marik was there for the full hour.
"So, Kira. You being a goddess in all, means your immortal, so we could like beat you up, and you'd still be fine?" the group sniggered at the girls remark. Kira looked over to the girl as if she was the stupidest being on the planet.
"Yes, if you wanted to, you could beat me up, knowing that you put all that effort into it, and I still come out as normal as ever!" Kira shot back, taking a bite into her sandwich. The girls expression changed instantly from stupid to angry. She stood up.
"Why don't we go right now?" she challenged, pointing at Kira. Kira stood up, and smiled as if they were best friends.
"You know, it may have looked like Marik beat me in that duel in the classroom. But you see, I know his antics," Kira started, examining her nails as if she had nothing better to do, "And I know for one, he is a vampire, and vampires have lighting speed! And two, he attacked me while my eyes were closed, so I was unaware, and three, my eyes were closed for about a millisecond. So unless you're a vampire, which I know your not, your going to have one hell of a time beating me!" Kira stopped examining her nails, and looked at the girl in an unexpressed way.
"You up for it?" asked Kira, planting her feet firmly on the ground. The girl nodded.
"But first, I want to know your name, and what, or who, you are!" added Kira, holding her finger up. The girl smiled evilly.
"Sure, my name is Feryl, and I'm a Sea Sprite." She said, smirking with all her might. Kira almost doubled over.
"A Sea Sprite? You think, a creature from the Sea, can defeat a goddess?" Kira asked, pointing to herself. Feryl's smirk immediately disappeared. She then replaced it with anger.
"Yes." She said firmly. Kira only shrugged.
"Well, why don't we take this outside." Kira said, holding her hand out for Feryl to go.
Once the two girls, and some others, were outside, they began the duel. No, this wasn't a card game duel, this was fight duel, and yes, they were allowed at the school.
"Rules, no going invisible, and no immediate healing, lets see how long you can last!" ordered Feryl. Kira didn't mind, and those rules, she didn't even listen.
"Lets go." Said Kira, without a tone or a trace of emotion. Feryl transformed first. She had a long blue silk skirt, that hung to her ankles. And a white tube top, and some kind of up-do in her hair.
Kira didn't bother to transform, but she held out her hands, and two fancy looking daggers appeared in them. This didn't seem to faze Feryl, as she held onto a long stick, with three points on the end. Like a trident.
Kira made the first move. She lunged forward, and jabbed one of the daggers forward. Following that swift movement, Feryl leaped out of the way, and brought her trident down. Seconds before the trident was to stop in front her nose, Kira shot one of the daggers up, blocking it with sheer force. But Feryl seemed to have the upper hand. She pushed down even harder, and in reaction to that, Kira spun her daggers around the trident, flipping Feryl onto her back. Kira smiled as she pointed the dagger to Feryl's neck.
"Shame, I thought you'd put up more of fight!" Kira said, smirking, then spun the daggers around twice, and they both disappeared. Feryl got up, and shoved Kira.
"Whatever, it was a waste of my time!" shouted Feryl, marching back into the school. Her friends followed her in. Kira laughed inwardly, and decided to spend the rest of the lunch hour outside. She walked over to a nearby tree, and used her powers to conjure up a red apple. Kira smiled and took a bite into it.
Not to far away, she didn't notice Marik standing there, with his hands jammed in his pockets. He silently walked up to where Kira was, and sat down. Kira looked up from her apple to see the boy with white/blonde hair, and violet eyes.
"What do you want? Come to make fun of me?" she asked, raising one eyebrow, and taking another bite. Marik shook his head.
"No, I came to apologize. I was kind of a jerk back in the class." He said quietly, only above a whisper, but Kira caught it all. Her serious face turned into a more, warming one. She reached out an put her hand on his shoulder.
"So, this means we can be friends, right?" she asked, sounding hopeful. Marik grinned.
"Shoot, that's what I was going to say!" he laughed. Kira pulled her hand away, and made her apple disappear, instead of throwing it on the ground. She looked back at Marik, who was looking at some grass by his leg.
"So, what's your family like?" Marik asked, still not looking Kira in the eye. She found this odd, but answered all the same.
"Well, we are probably just like your family. Except we're not vampires, we're gods." She said uneasily. "It's just like any other home though. I have two dogs, Lady and Shepard, and cat named Crow and a horse named Fear. I love animals!" she added happily. Marik looked up.
"You have a horse?" he asked, unsure if that's what she said. Kira nodded.
"I actually have two, Fear and Rider. Funny names, I know, but I think they sound, unique, different!" Kira said, looking up into the leafy tree.
"Well, I know this is upfront and all, but, do-do you think I might be able to come over and ride with you some time?" he asked, this time he was the one sounding hopeful. Kira looked over at Marik, only until now did Kira really notice how handsome Marik really was. With his long white/blonde hair falling every where. And his eyes, Kira couldn't get over his eyes!
"Sure, of course you can!" said happily. Marik beamed. Kira looked at Marik happily. She looked at his face, scanning every inch of it. Suddenly, she realized she had been staring at him for over a minute now, and quickly looked away.
"So, what's your family like?" asked Kira, still not looking back at him. Marik didn't answer. Kira ignored the silence and waited for an answer. After about, 30 seconds, Kira wondered what was taking him so long. Looking up, Kira hesitated. He was gone! Kira jumped up immediately, and whipped her head around.
Suddenly, she heard a laugh behind her. Glaring, Kira turned around. Marik stood there, clutching his stomach as if he were afraid it might fall off. Kira then grinned, and tackled him to the ground. Marik was so caught off guard, Kira managed to get him on his back. She laughed triumphantly, and sat on Marik's stomach.
"Hey! No fair!" Marik yelled, trying to get up, but failed due to laughter he couldn't stop.
"Kira, come on!" he begged again, but Kira shook her head.
"Tell me about your life, then I'll let you go!" she said, crossing her arms and giving him a playful glare. Marik sighed, and rested his head against the grassy floor beneath him.
"Fine." He sighed in defeat. Looking up at the sky, he wondered where to start. His life was so, complicated. So, long! Looking at his watch, he decided to make the story short.
"My family moved here from Egypt. Since vampires cannot die, we lived there for quite some time. My father was a slave, and a vampire for that. He hated Egypt, unlike my mother, she loved it. So, my father decided to move, and my mother stayed. So now, every two months, I go and visit my mother for a week, and then come back." Marik took a deep breath, which was actually quite difficult owing to the fact that Kira was sitting directly over his stomach.
She looked pleased with his explanation.
"Well, since I told you, get off me!" grunted Marik, propping himself up on his elbows. Kira sighed.
"A deals a deal!" she grinned, getting off and handing Marik her hand to help him up. Marik gratefully grabbed her hand, and hoisted himself up. Rubbing off the back of hits pants, he heard a familiar ring.
"Bell, we better get inside." He said. Kira nodded and followed suit.
Kira thought the worst was over so far, but she was sadly mistaken. Her lunch hour was a complete hell ride, and to top it off, Marik was there for the full hour.
