Rai: I'm saying the disclaimer now before you can say anything. This witch does not own yugioh or me. Rednal29 owns me. If anyone other than Rednal 29 claims ownership of me, Rai Aquarius, they are imposters. If you ever consider having me around to do your disclaimers, don't even bother asking. Hey, how come I'm not trying desperately to escape this hell hole?
Riter: cuz you want to stay.
Rai: No I don't.
Riter: ::Sighs irratidly:: Because as Authoress, I have Author powers. The only character I know who can defy them is your brother. You are subject to my will. You will do what ever I want you to.
Rai: What if I complain to Rednal about your abuse? You chained me to a wall. ((holds up shackle for punctuation.))
Riter: He'll only encourage it. Oh yes, just to let you know, I have three more muses other than my baby blue eyes white dragon, who has seemed to gone missing....
Rai: You only just noticed?
Riter: Well anyways, if anything named Raeya, Tye, or Pyra pop in, just know that Raeya is a baby red eyes black dragon, Pyra is a red tongue of flame, and Tye is a black tongue of flame.
Tye: Let Rai go. He's getting on my nerves.
Raeya: Rawrrr!!!
Rai: What?!!! Riter, your dragon's mocking me! ((struggles against shackles.))
Riter: Good job, Raeya. So anyways, here's my chapter of....
Sun Treasure
(As a last note. I know Seto means "strait," but in my weird language, it means "sun," alright? Just because "Sun Treasure" sounds so much better than "Strait Treasure.")
---Flashback---
Time passes slowly when you're having fun, Takara thought snidely on her fourth day at the mansion as she added another brush stroke to her wall. She yawned tiredly. Well, she forcibly yawned, just to go with her frame of mind. If not for her self induced insomnia, she would be in bed sleeping about now. There was a soft knock on her door. "Taka?"
"Come in Mokie." Mokuba's head poked into the room.
"It's dark in here." He walked over to the window and opened the drapes. Takara winced. It was around noon, and it was quite bright. "Are you alright? I haven't seen you for two days."
"You go to school, Mokie. As far as I'm concerned, I'm ditching it. I don't recommend that to you," she added, glancing at the younger boy who was walking around her room.
"Nice painting so far." Takara nodded at him from her spot on the floor.
"Normally something like what I'm doing would take me a few months, but... I'm bored. Oni doesn't let me out of my room." Mokuba laughed at his sister's nickname for her twin.
"Anyways, I was wondering... Takara, are you awake?"
"Yes..."
"You're eyes were closing."
"No they weren't."
"Yes they were.
"No they weren't."
"Yes they were."
"Yes they were."
"No they... wait a minute..." Mokuba blinked at his grinning sister. "Darn!"
"Got ya," Takara said, reaching up to give her little brother a noogie.
---End Flash---
((Going back to the tourney...))
When Seto came home the second morning of the tournament, he was incredibly hyper. Surprising, as he'd spent most of the night up and searching for the other two egyptian god cards, even though he knew it was a waste of time. He hadn't have any paperwork to do, which was rare, so he'd needed something to occupy him. And he'd made the mistake of drinking too much coffee. In any case, he noticed that his bed was messy when he walked in. He remembered his conversation with his twin merely six hours before. He shrugged, figuring she'd merely gone back to her room, assuming it was cleaned up. Pulling the card-shaped locket over his head, he placed it, along with a necklace whose pendant was the kanji version of his name in onyx, onto the oak desk. Along with it went his desk and duekdisk (yeah, he'd worked with that thing on). Throwing a set of clothes identical to what he was wearing onto the bed with his white trenchcoat. ((A/N: Is it a trenchcoat or a duster? I heard it being called both, so I'm not exactly sure...)) He decided to take a shower.::about twenty minutes later::
Seto stepped out of the shower and rubbed himself down with a soft white towel. He wrapped a seperate towel around his waist while he continued drying his hair with the other. He tossed the towel onto the bed next to the clean clothes, and proceeded to put on the shirt. He let the towel around his waist fall and was about to pull on his boxers when...
((Flip))
"Ack!" he yelled, holding his boxers to hide his "goods" and turning to the source of the noise. There was Takara, fully dressed in her black pants and red shirt, her trenchcoat hanging off of the back of the solid oak chair she was sitting in. At least she had her back to him, leaning on the back legs of the chair, her feet propped against the desk as she continued reading her catalog, and reached for her Brisk. "Takara! What are you doing in here?!"
Takara glanced over her shoulder and flashed a grin. "I dunno, wanted to talk?" She returned the reading material, noting how red her brother had gotten. "Anyways, it's not like you'd be the first guy I'd see."
Seto angrily pulled on his boxers, indignant that his sister hadn't even warned him when he realized what she'd said... "What do you mean I wouldn't be the first guy you'd seen?" He watched his twin's shoulder's shrug.
"You wouldn't be." She took a loud sip from her straw, efficently assuming the "claws on chalkboard" effect on Seto.
"Ugh," he muttered. "Kami-sama, how did I get such a disgusting sister? What are you reading anyways?"
Takara shrugged. "Tiles catalog. I told you about my mosaic idea, right? I finished the rough draft for my design. I'm looking at the colors." Kaiba froze in the middle of pulling on his pants. He hurriedly pulled them up enough so he could walk over to snatch the catalog away from his sister.
"You'll drive yourself crazy. You're to prescise to pick out your own tiles."
Takara looked confused for a moment, then laughed. "Oh, you're worried I'm going to kill myself over finding the perfect tile. You're WORRIED."
Kaiba made a face. "I just don't want an insane sister. Not that I don't already..." Kaiba muttered under his breath. "Takara," he said out loud, "I'm not going to let you out of the house today. You're a danger to yourself."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Winners first, monkey boy," Kiaba sneered as he passed the doorway the dog stood in. He heard Joey growl, but disregarded it. 'Gods, what the hell is taking him so long?' Kaiba nearly froze at hearing his sister's thoughts. Didn't this only happen when she was nearby? Damn, she had to be near by. How did she get on the blimp? Hadn't he specifically instructed her to be locked in her room until the finals started?
When he entered the main hallway, guess who he saw... (What, you don't know? You can't guess?! Gosh, you're even dumber than Rai...)
(Rai: Grrrr...)
So anyways, Takara was there, wearing her tournament clothes, leaning against the wall, with her beanie pulled down almost covering her eyes. (A./N: I have alot of notes, eh? Well, I didn't see the episode this would've taken place in, so I'm kinda ad-libbing.) "Takara," Seto snarled.
"Neesan!" Mokuba greeted, ignoring his older brother and running up to hug his sister. (Wow, Mokuba's well adjusted, ne?)
"Hey kid," Takara said, ruffling the ebony tresses, so much like her own. Her blue eyes, instead, stared into those of her twin. 'Jack.'
'I think I should fire him.'
'You shouldn't. If it weren't for him, I might have set fire to the entire mansion.' Their thought-speak was interupted people started entering the room. Takara ignored everyone, pulling the hat lower over her eyes, even as she had them half closed. Takara's nose twictched dangerously, daring Tea, Tristan, and the other girl to say anything about her presence. (I know someone who does that, alright?) Tea was about to ask, when she saw the twitch. She decided not to. Tristan wasn't going to anyways, and the other girl, who Takara had never met, took their lead. Mai and Yugi were off to the side, chatting, and Marik was getting food at the buffet.
"Hey, a buffet," she muttered. "You already have room service on board, why do you need a buffet?" Joey came over to where Tea, Tristan, and Serenity sat, saying something about cleaning out the buffet.
"Hey Kaiba," he turned around to say, not noticing the other prescence. "When are we gonna find out who we're dueling?"
"Why can't you just sit and wait quietly like a good dog? Or are we that eager to lose?" After Kaiba replied, he pressed a button on his lapel radio. "We're all ready to draw the lots, except the eighth duelist. Bring the eighth duelist up here.
"What?" Joey asked through a mouthful. "Isn't she the last duelist?" He pointed in Takara's direction. Nobody saw it, but Takara rolled her eyes under her beanie.
"Baka inu," she muttered, having gotten that phrase from Seto. "You don't know who I am?" She mentally kicked herself. She'd said that louder than she meant to.
"DIANA?" Duke Devlin's attention had been reverted from the food plate he was carrying (or the girl he found attractive at the table he was bringing it too ((::cough hack:: serenity ::ack!::) to the figure stading calmly besides her (supposed) cousin. Joey choked on his food.
"DIANA?!" Yugi and Tea, hearing this, turned to see and recognize the familiar figure from last week. (well, she's wearing practically the same clothes, and had the same three earrings hanging from her left ear...)
"DIANA?!?"they yelled simultaneously. "Diana" 's nose twitched again as she grimaced when she heard the four say simultaneously:
"What? You know Diana? Where?!"
"She's Kaiba's cousin," Duke explained. "I met her last week at a party. The next day, I gave her that skull earring." He nodded at Takara. Kaiba gave her a "look." "How do any of you know her?"
"I bumped into her outside the game shop last week."
"The museum." Takara snorted.
"You are all..." Everyone turned to look at the calm girl, who was standing as calm as ever with her arms crossed, "such idiots." Joey fumed at this and clenched his fist. "Inu's are so cute, aren't they, tsuin?" Her question was obviously directed towards Kaiba. Kaiba gave a "hmph" in reply. She smirked.
"Tsuin? Twin?" Bakura asked. Pandemonium erupted. Everyone started talking at once, asking Kaiba and Takara (Or Diana, may I interject) and each other questions. The three Kaiba's stayed stationary, Mokuba out of confusion, Seto out of a need to not get involved, and Takara out of amusement, a small Kaiba-like smirk playing on her lips.
When a few of the voices, namely Duke because he was lied to, Yugi, ditto the reason, Bakura out of confusion, escalated to a near yelling level, Mokuba finally yelled, "QUIET!"
Everyone stopped and looked at him. Mokuba turned to Seto. He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Seto and Takara said, in synchronization, "Not a word, Mokuba."
"I wasn't going to say anything. It's just... shouldn't the finals be starting?"
"Right, the finals," Takara said icily. "Mmhm. God cards, power.... Okay, I think I'm leaving." She stalked over to the door of the room, pausing with her foot over the threshold. After a second she turned around, saying, "You know what? No, I'm not going." Pointedly ignoring everyone, she walked back to her first spot.
"Neesan?" Mokuba asked, looking up at her.
Takara made a face at Seto, one that was unreadable to anyone but Takara. "Yeah Mok?"
"Didn't you go to school with all these people? Or at least, Yugi and his friends?"
"Yes..."
"Miho?" Tristan stupidly asked.
"Miho? Who the hell is that?" This time she made eye contact with the group. She ignored Mai, Namu, and Marik. "Look, I've only gone to your school for one week, but no one recognizes me just because I dye my hair blue?!" Blank blinks at the girl's rage. "Duke, c'mon. Derek saw through the blue hair, I mean, seriously. And Yugi, I was disappointed in you. Tea..." she shook her head. "Joey..." She shook her head twice. Everyone stared blankly at her. "Does the name Isoda," she said, dramatically pulling her hat off her head, "Isoda Takara, ring any bells?" Her black blue-tinged hair was let loose, casading down her back. She flinched at something, then went back to her cold Kaiba demeanor. Her onyx skull earring swung back and forth from it's place in her ear. Shocked silence greeted her. "Great. I'm going up deck now." Takara walked out of the room again, this time for real.
"The first to duelist's will be chosen by lottery..."
A/N: I kinda took a long time to write this. A really long time. A really really long time. Thanks to all you people who waited for this chapter! It would be nice if you reviewed... Mini-dict:
Oni: Demon. Taka calls Seto that coz Oni is also the beinging of "Onisaan," which is "brother."
Tsuin: Twin.
