'Thoughts'
Chapter 4- Learning
Seto and Kisara ran back up the hill, Rwet and Shwt right on their tail with their horses and goods. The sun had already risen up right on the horizon and was beginning to warm the dessert land and let its temperature rise. Reaching the top, Kisara walked over to where she tied the two camels to a rock, untying them and looking over at Seto.
"Here," she handed the reigns to him. Seto glared at the animal, but took the rains anyway. Shwt cocked his head at the expression Seto gave the quiet animal. Rwet laughed mentally.
-He's funny with the animal Shwt- he said. The other smiled.
--Heh, yeah he is-- The came up behind the two, cocking their heads in question on what to do next. Kisara saw this and smiled.
"Ok, we have to get back to town where me and Seto are staying. Once there, we can have something to eat and figure this puzzle out." Seto nodded in agreement.
"Also, we should try and get you two to remember English…or else this is going to be very hard to have conversations." The two looked at each other then to Seto and nodded. They hopped on their horses, and turned to the two other couples to lead them. Kisara had mounted her camel, and moved south, Seto on her tail, Rwet and Shwt right behind them. After riding for about 15 minutes, Seto began talking.
"Kisara…what are we eating tonight…cuz I'm hungry," he said, looking over at the white haired woman. She shrugged.
"I dunno…how bot we go out to eat," she asked. Seto shook his head quickly.
"Nonononno, bad idea! Lets have steak!" he chirped happily. She raised an eyebrow in annoyment and confusion.
"What!? Seto, what the hell!? No, we are not having steak!" she yelled. Seto glared.
"That sounds good though! Common, pleaaaaaaaase!" Kisara groaned.
"Just because you had a lot of money when you were young, does NOT mean we can randomly, out of the blue, have a extravagant dinner!" Rwet and Shwt sat behind, saying nothing as the two lovers fought over…dinner. Shwt raised an eyebrow.
--For ones who love one another…they fight a lot…-- he said. Rwet nodded in agreement as Kisara punched Seto in the face, making the man's head go red.
-Rwet aggress…but fun amusement for Rwet and Shwt!- he chirped happily. The other smiled.
--Yup…but we have to go to a town…-- he looked over at Rwet, confusion written all over his fac. --I wonder what a town in like…?-- Rwet shrugged.
-Maybe it's…where you…ummm…- he trailed off. –Actually, Rwet has no clue either- Shwt smiled, rubbing his knuckles on Rwet's head.
--Aww, we don't want to make little Rwet's head hurt!-- the boy growled at him.
-Off OFF!- he yelled, hitting Shwt's hand away. The other just laughed in delight. Suddenly though, their horses stopped. Both young men looked up to see Kisara and Seto looking at them.
"Up there is the town," he pointed to where many little buildings were. "We just wanted to make sure you had no weaponry on you? Like knives, guns etc." The two looked to one another. Then back to Seto.
"Ma…m-ake…from shadow," Shwt said. Seto made a 'oo'ing sound with his mouth.
"Ohh…ok, I get it! Well then, lets go!" He turned to the town and rode towards it. Rwet and Shwt looked down at him and the town.
-Towns are places Rwet and Shwt attack…?- he said. Shwt shrugged and nodded.
--Guess so-- he whispered. Then noticing how far ahead the Kisara and Seto were, they kicked their horses into a gallop and ran after them. Nearing the town, the light and dark made sure to take their hoods off, so people wouldn't see them as killers. Since no one really saw their face or hair, no one could recognize them as the murders that were attacking each city and town. Seto rode his camel over to the seller and handed it to the dark colored sales person. Kisara did the same. Walking over to Rwet and Shwt, she told them to dismount.
"We can walk to our hotel, it's not that far alright? You can just tie your horses at a post or sell them or even just give them to the camel guy," she pointed to the guy with the camels. Both shrugged and, taking their goods off, handed the horses over.
--We stole them anyway-- he said to Rwet, laughing slightly. The boy giggled in response as well. After handing the horses to the seller, the walked next to Kisara and Seto. Looking up to see them. Even though a lot of people in this town were smaller in size, they still were all taller then Rwet and around the same size as Shwt. But because of Seto's 6-foot incident, they had to look up quite a bit to talk to his face. Kisara was also about a head taller than Shwt. The four walked for about a ten minutes time till they came to a decently nice hotel suite. The two pre-murders stared up at the building questionably. Seto turned to them.
"This is a hotel. Me and Kisara are staying here, and so are you now alright?" he said to them. The shrugged, not caring much, and followed the two out of the heat of the now fully risen sun. Walking in, they met a wash of nice cool air. Shwt sighed.
--Ahh, it's nice from being out in that heat for so long…-- the other nodded. Seto led them to the stairs and opened the door and began to walk up the steppes. Rwet stared at them.
-Odd…things…- he said. His dark nodded, but started walking up the flights anyway, his light clinging to his arm and following him as well. They reached the second floor and Seto exited the stairs, as did Kisara. Deciding it was best to follow, the two other men followed as well. They walked down a nicer hall, to a specific door and stopped. Whipping out his keys, Seto opened the door and walked in. Kisara held the door for Rwet and Shwt. They, hesitant to go in, took slow steps entering the room. It smelled of cleanses and there was another smell that they jut couldn't place their finger on. There was a small sink and a coffee machine on the one part of the room. If you walked through some more doors, you would see two beds and a bathroom if you turned right. In the first room, before entering the bedroom area, there were a couple chairs and one small couch. Rwet glanced around the room in awe.
-Look at all this funny stuff Shwt…- he said, looking at the TV. He saw the button on it. Curious, he pushed it, making the box come to life. Shrieking, he ran behind Shwt, clutching onto his loves clock.
-What is it!!??- he screamed. Shwt created a sword from the shadows and was going to hit the box with people in it, but Seto and Kisara ran in front of them.
"You guys! It's ok, it's just a TV!" Kisara yelled, turning it off. Shwt's sword disappeared into the shadows as he stared at the box.
"TV…?" he asked. Rwet came out from behind his dark as the glowing talking thing turned off.
-Rwet doesn't like it!- he said, hissing slightly at the television. Seto sighed as he saw Rwet hissing at their television set.
"Ok, I know this is all very new to you, just don't touch anything ok?" he said, walking over to the coffee machine and making up some coffee. Rwet came up behind him, staring at the machine in awe.
"Oooo…" he pocked at one of the buttons, making it turn on. It started making a bubbling sound and a sharp smell emitted from it. Rwet yipped again and ran back to his yami, jumping into the other arms.
-Everything makes odd noises!- he shrieked. Shwt glared at the coffee machine.
"Chisa maku! (damn thing)" he yelled at it. Seto, hearing their language again, remembered that the two had to learn English. He started to pace, trying to think of a fast way to help them learn it and speak it fluently. He walked over to the young men. Leading his hand to the couch he said just one word.
"Sit." They looked at him, shrugged and sat down. Shwt sat down first, placing his left arm on the rest and Rwet occupied his other arm. They sat in silence as Kisara and Seto went to sit in the large chairs. Soon, Seto spoke.
"Ok, I need to figure out…" he placed a hand on his temple. "Ok, let me start over. Tell us…no, damn!" He sighed. "We need you both to learn fluent English. How were supposed to do that is completely unclear to me…but in order to fully understand each other you have to learn the language. Do you know how you can do it? Any ideas at all?" He asked them. Right after saying that, he mentally slapped himself. They wouldn't know even where to begin! Shwt thought for a second, unconsciously running his hands through Rwet's long locks.
"Hnmm…" he shook his head. "Co-ould not ex…expla-ain," he said stammering over his words. Seto nodded. Rwet looked up at him.
-Do you really?- he asked. Shwt nodded.
--I…think. If they had like…a big book on words…-- Rwet suddenly spoke out loud.
"N-ee-ed big bo…bo-ok on wor…ords!" he yelled, though it sounded jumpy and out of place with all the breaks. Seto's eyes widened.
"You mean a dictionary?" he said. The boy nodded.
"Hie!" he said happily. Seto walked over to a drawer and opened it. Taking out a large book, he plopped it down on the table, making a loud snap. Rwet jumped at the noise.
"Here," Seto started. "A dictionary. It has every word in the English language." Kisara looked form the large book to the older teens.
"How can you use the dictionary? Are you going to read through every page of the English language?" she asked. Rwet hopped out of his others embrace and grabbed the book.
"Re-ead!" he said turning to the first page. Shwt sat next to him and thy read together, over every word. In about a 30-second time, they had turned the page. Kisara's eyes widened. They really thought they could learn the language by reading the dictionary!? Seto stared as well. He's never seen anyone, or anytwo read a page in the dictionary that fast before. Their mouths were moving rapidly, reading off each word at an amazing speed, but then Seto noticed that their lips weren't moving in sync with the other, which meant that they weren't reading the same word. But then, he noticed yet another flaw. Shwt was looking at the left side of the page as Rwet was looking at the right. So one was reading one side, the other…the other side.
'Why would they do that…wait…their mind link!' (a/n- ok…I made Seto to slow right there XDXD sorry) Smiling he turned to Kisara.
"They won't be moving from that spot for a while koi, why don't we let them finish." And at that, he walked into the bedroom. Kisara looked at the boys, who were already on the 10 page at least, and walked out of the room. The older teens stayed like that all the rest of the day, reading every single word, engraving it into their brains. Once night fell, they stopped to sleep. Kisara walked in, to see them asleep on the couch. The book was left open on the coffee table with a piece of paper in the nick to keep their page. Kisara then looked over at Rwet and Shwt. The taller one had his head resting on the armrest, one arm hanging off the couch. Rwet laid on his stomach, his hands curled up on the mans chest. Kisara smiled, taking a blanket, and draped it over the two sleeping and walked back into her own bedroom. The next morning, she woke up to bright sunlight. She sat up, rubbing her eyes to get the tiredness out of them. When she opened them though, what she expected to see, was an empty bed, except for her lover, who was still out cold. But what she did see, were two large LARGE amethyst eyes. She shirked and almost fell of the bed. Gripping her chest she stared at the young man. Rwet smiled a cute little smile.
"Good morning Kisara!!!"
DMYY- Oh -gasps- did he just speak English without any stuttering! -becomes dramatic- did they remember…or just read the whole dictionary!? Well, hoped you liked it! Please review!!!
