'Thoughts'
Chapter 6- Desert Rose
Both watched as the door closed and they were left with a crying boy on the floor. Kisara sighed, then turned to see Rwet, lying on the ground, hiccuping small tears. His arms crossed over his face. She walked over and kneeled in front of him.
"It's ok Rwet…Don't wor-" His hand shot up, grasping her neck. The woman's eyes widened in surprise and pain. Seto gasped and attempted to run over to where he laid. Rwet's amethyst eyes came into view. They were a dark violet silver, and an anger radiating in them that made Kisara shiver.
"Why…" he whispered huskily. "Why did you make them take him!!" he screamed, tightening his grip on her neck. "Why didn't you let ME go!! WHY!!" Kisara bean to feel lightheaded as oxygen was being cut off. Seto ran over and managed to pry him off of Kisara. She fell to the ground, breathing heavily, a hand clutching her throat. Rwet turned in Seto's embrace and punched him square in the jaw. The man fell to the ground wincing in pain, but now he was going to feel more. Rwet began hitting Seto's face again and again.
"Bring him back!! Bring him BACK!" he screamed, never stopping his stream of punches. Kisara immediately ran over, grabbing Rwet around the waist and hosted him up so that he was in the air. Now he kicked and screamed.
"Let go of me you bitch!! I swear, if you don't I'll kill you!! Let me GO!!" Kisara winced as a fist came in contact with her face.
"Rwet…just calm down! Calm down Rwet please!!" He didn't. He kept screaming bloody murder and attempting to hit her. After a matter of 10 minutes at least though, he began to tire and his reckless hand movements had decreased. His arms then dropped at his sides, as he could not go on for any longer and began to cry again. Kisara slowly set him on the ground, where he just fell into a heap on the carpet. The silver haired woman thought that if they at least had one boy, then getting the other back would be easier. But she had no clue Rwet would react this way.
"Rwet…it's ok, common, you don't need to cry," she whispered, rubbing her hands over his back as his lover did. Seto walked over and kneeled down as well.
"Rwet, were sorry. But believe me, me and Kisara would never handed Shwt over like that and leave you here for no good reason." Rwet looked up, fire still burning in his eyes.
"If I went with him, at least we could be near each other…" he whispered. Seto sighed.
"Yugi…no, I'm sorry, Rwet. You can sense where you dark is. You have a link with him. That's why if one of you stayed and the other left, then we would have a easier time with finding him again." Rwet looked up more. "If both of you were gone, me and Kisara could never get you back…please, just understand that we didn't sell you dark out like that, they found us." Slowly, Rwet sat up and stared at him. Seto saw pure pain in emitting from those eyes. Rwet looked to the ground again, closing his eyes in pain as tears rolled down his cheeks again. Seto's eyes saddened, and he reached over and wrapped his hands lightly around him, letting him cry. Kisara slowly kept rubbing his back in smooth circles, attempting to try and calm him down more.
"I-I want him back…" Rwet whispered, still crying and hiccuping slightly. Kisara patted his head now.
"We know Rwet…it'll be ok. I promise we will get Shwt back…I promise," she whispered. He looked up and nodded. And fell back into Seto's arms, exhausted. Seto handed him to Kisara, who picked him up, bridal like style and brought him to their room, placing him on the bed. Tucking the covers over him, and closing the curtains, she let him sleep. Before she walked out of the room, she looked back to him. Rwet had his hands out in front of him, clutching the area where his dark would be if he were here now. Eyes saddening, she walked out of the bedroom and closed the door softly behind her. Leaning against it, she sighed. Seto walked over and gathered her in his arms.
"Common Kisara, its not your fault…don't blame yourself," he whispered comfortably. She sighed into his shoulder.
"But he's so unhappy now Seto…" she started. "Were putting him though so much pain…" Seto rubbed her back soothingly.
"I know…I know." Throughout the day, Kisara went in to check on Rwet. Every time, she knew he was awake. Rushing to pretend to sleep whenever she came in. But by the end of the day, she walked in, to find him sitting up, staring out the window, which he opened the curtains for. His back was up against the back bored and knees up to his chest. Tears were still threatening to fall down his cheeks, but seemed to be holding them in. She came over to the bed.
"Hey there…you alright?" she asked. He nodded, still never taking his eyes off the window. She sighed half-heartily and stood to walk out the door. Turning her back on him and reaching for the doorknob, he spoke.
"Why…?" he asked. She turned back to him, confusion on her face.
"What?" He turned to look at her.
"Why do they want us? Why did the government people want to take us away?" she stared sweetly at Rwet.
"Because…your different. You and Shwt have power that no one else has. And they either see it as a threat or a gain. So, they would take you away and do experiments. To see if they can make you power by themselves…" she looked to her hands. "And if they can't…they'll find other ways." Rwet crawled over next to her, crawling near her lap. She look down at his pleading face.
"Will they kill him…?" he asked. She looked to the ground.
"I don't know…maybe…" she whispered. Rwet looked to the ground. Kisara saw his saddened face, and then wrapped her arms around the boy's body.
"Common Rwet, it's ok." She looked at him sweetly. "Is there anything I can do to make you feel better…?" she asked. Rwet looked to the ground again, a blush forming on his face.
"Umm…well…" he trailed off. Kisara smiled.
"Anything Shwt did? Like a song, or anything else?" Rwet smiled.
"…There was…one song…" he whispered. Kisara patted his hair softly.
"Do you think you can tell me it?" she asked. Rwet smiled.
"I don't know the name…" Kisara grinned.
"Then just start out, I'll figure it out." Rwet smiled, opened his mouth and sang.
"I dream of rain…I dream of gardens in the desert sand…I wake in vain, I dream of love as time runs through my hand!" Kisara smiled. She's heard this song before. She was going to take off where Rwet left off, but he kept on singing, his angelic voice ringing off the hotel walls.
"I dream of fire…those dreams that tie two hearts that will never die. And near the flames…the shadows play in the shape of the man's desire." Kisara smiled as Rwet closed his eyes happily, losing himself in that gentel song that his love sang to him; moving his body away from Kisara, sitting up straight and swaying with the rhythm.
"This desert rose…Whose shadow bears the secret promise. This desert flower…No sweet perfume that would torture you more that this." He stopped for a breath. "And now she turns…This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams…This fire burns, I realize that nothing's as it seems. I dream of rain…I lift my gaze to the empty skies above…I close my eyes…the rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of love." There was a bright smile on his face now, his voice echoing like the voice of an angel.
"I dream of rain…I dream of gardens in the desert sand. I wake in vein…I dream of love as time runs through my hand. Sweet desert rose…whose shadow bears the secret promise. This desert flower…No sweet perfume that would torture you more that this. Sweet desert rose…this memory of hidden hearts and souls. This desert flower…this rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of love…" at that, he closed his mouth at the end of the song.
"He sang that to me…when we were alone, we sang together…" he opened his eyes. "I truly loved that song." Kisara then thought.
"Did he sing it English to you…like you did just now?" Rwet nodded.
"Yes…we heard it once, and the lyrics were just engraved into out minds." He looked up at her. "We didn't know what the words meant… or even what we were saying; now I do though. But then it was just the rhythm and sound that mattered to us then." Kisara smiled.
"Well Rwet…" she stood up, eyes saddening slightly. "Do you still…hate me and Seto for what we did…?" Rwet looked away.
"…No…I…no." he shook his head. "I was never mad at you…it's just…" tears began sliding down his cheeks. "I never thought that I would be separated from him…" Kisara smiled.
"Good…because if you were, Seto would run. You almost broke his nose!" Yugi looked down sheepishly.
"Um…Rwet is sorry about that. Can…where is he. Rwet kinda wants to apologize…" Kisara smiled at Rwet's courage.
"Sure. Common, he's in the other room." Rwet slowly crawled out of the bed and into the other room. Seto sat in the chair; re-bandaging some of his face he looked up and grinned a toothy grin.
"Hey there!" he said happily, though his face (with the bandage) showed otherwise. Rwet saw the protection on his face and looked to the ground.
"Umm…Rwet, no, 'I' am sorry for hitting you like that Seto…I really didn't mean to make you bleed…" Seto smiled and waved off the apology.
"Oh, it's alright Rwet! I've experienced more pain then this!" he pointed to his face. The violet eyed one smiled.
"Alright…but…here" he walked over and stood in front of Seto. "Can you take of the bondage?" he asked. Seto looked at him oddly, but then took it off. Rwet smiled, placing his hands on the man's face and began muttering a small incantation. Light shone from his fingertips. The others eyes winded as the light laced around his wounds, immediately healing them. Rwet soon stopped muttering and the light stopped. Drawing his hands away and opening his eyes; he smiled. Seto grinned as well.
"Thanks Rwet…" he said softly, rubbing his face. "It doesn't hurt anymore." The boy nodded. Seto's face then grew more serious. "Rwet, while you were sleeping, I was thinking of a way for us to find Shwt and get him out of the governments little hands…but first…we got to go somewhere." Rwet cocked his head to the side.
"Where?" Seto's grin widened.
"The great…all powerful, wasted, dirty and one of countries that hosted the great obese epidemic…the lovely United States of America!!"
DMYY- Yay, there off to America. Now you get to see, in next chappie, the full extant of my hate for this country XD Ok…no, don't really hate this country…just the government! XD Please review!
