Take my soul away by Le Petit Chaperon Rouge
THANKS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS!
IMPORANT: Sorry for this very very short chapter, but I have only little time, because I'm going on holiday for a week and my finals are in 3 weeks. I haven't been updating because of the recent death of a family member who was close to me. I'll try to update this story with a better chapter when I'm back, but I can't promise anything.
Chapter 6. Gotcha!
A brown haired girl stepped in front of Shizuka , she was dressed in a tight red suit with brown pieces of armour. In her right hand she held a whip, with her other she grabbed Shizuka.
"Let's see what Bakura has to say about this!" She said sadistically. Shizuka swallowed.
"Who are you? Let me go!" but the girls grip was way to strong.
"My name in of no importance now." And with that she dragged Shizuka back through town to Bakura's hideout. Bakura was still asleep after a long night of stealing. He lay on the bed where Serenity usually slept.
"Bakura!" the girl yelled. He woke and looked around bewildered. It had something really cute as he was looking around like at little child, woken by a thunderstorm. Then he caught sight of Shizuka and the brown haired girl.
"Manae…. What are you doing?" he asked annoyed. the girl laughed.
"I stopped her from leaving town, just like you ordered." Bakura looked at Shizuka suspiciously. Shizuka couldn't say anything, it just wouldn't come out. She shook her head violently. Bakura sighed heavily and rubbed his temples. Shizuka could see he was tried and annoyed. Great she thought as she tried to escape from Manae's grip.
Bakura gave a small wave with his hand and Manae left. Shizuka just stood there rubbing her arm. The place where Manae had held her was all red. Before she could do anything, Bakura stood in front of her, his body suspiciously close to hers.
"What can I do to make sure you don't leave?"
"There's nothing you can do."
"No?"
"No"
"You know, there is a way…" He said slowly. Shizuka's eyes grew a wide a plates. "Because I know you would never break the holy laws" He continued.
"You….you wouldn't" She stammered.
"Oh, yes I would. If that's the only way to keep you by my side."
Anzu sat on the bed, staring through the window at the Nile. She just couldn't ban the image and sound of the screaming boy of earlier that day from her head.
"You still can't forget it, can you?" a voice whispered in her ear. Anzu shook her head.
"You'll be a real queen of your people." The voice continued. Two arms wrapped around Anzu's waist. "I'm so sorry Anzu, but it was Ma'at's (goddess of justice) judgement. Not mine"
Anzu nodded slowly. She didn't feel like talking about it. She felt how Atem nuzzled her neck.
"it's ok" She whispered, enjoying she feeling of being so close to Atem. She wrapped the silk sheets around her and nestled in Atems arms. He held her tightly, as if he was afraid to lose her in his dreams.
Soon his breathing became easier and his grip loosened a bit. He was asleep. Anzu couldn't sleep just yet. Carefully she got up and silently walked out of the room, wrapping a blue cloak around her.
She descended down the stairs to the where the jail were located. She looked around for a little bit and then she saw the jail cell where the girl was. The guard was fast asleep, so there would be no problem. She took the key that hung next to the door and opened the cell. The girl was asleep. Gently Anzu shook her arm.
"Wake up, little girl!" Anzu whispered. The girl opened her eyes. When she saw Anzu she looked scared out of her wits. Anzu just took her hand and led her out of the dungeons to the entrance of the palace. She ordered one of the guards to open the gate for a little bit so the girl could escape. Before the girl stepped out to the outside world, she bowed deeply and said:
"thank you very much pretty blue eyes miss" Anzu smiled and gave the little girl a hug.
"Go home little girl. Your parents are waiting for you."
"Goodbye pretty miss"
"Goodbye little girl" then the gate fell shut and Anzu hurried back to Atems room, hoping he didn't notice anything.
Once again, sorry for this ridiculously short chapter.
