Chapter 18

Jenny's sleepless night

Jenny stood at the council chamber entrance she was shaking as she walked over to Melissa's seat, she could still hear her cousin, comforting words of wisdom as they had discussed things that they would rather die then tell anyone at all.

Orion stood in the doorway watching Jenny, Orion knew he had to give Jenny time, she was not sleeping very well, and it was always in the middle of the night when she would walk out of the bedroom. Jenny would head to council chambers and pretend to see Melissa still there as if the incidents of a few days ago never happened.

Jenny moved over to the chair and looked at it; it had been three days since Melissa's sacrifice, and it was hard to coop with the thought of her cousin, which was like a much older sister to her.

Alec stood next to Orion, she was beginning to like the boy for loving her daughter so much, but the fact that her daughter, Jenny, was sleeping with him was another matter, unknown to the new deal that the two had made four nights ago. Jenny moved around the room slowly as if she was trying to recreate in her mind the last thing she and Melissa ever did which was a discussion on who was to go as the fourth person on the mission for the blue eyes dragon armors.

Alec moved in to the room as her daughter sat down in her seat, which was next to Orion's usual seat that looked like a throne. Jenny put her hands to her face and started to cry, Orion moved but Alec looked at him, "let me handle this," she said in a whisper. Orion nodded, to let Jenny's mother handle the mourning young woman.

Jenny looked up when she sensed her mother in the room, "Hey, you want to talk?" her mother asked. Jenny shook her head, "No, Mom, I don't want to talk, I don't want to do anything," she said. Alec shook her head, "Jennifer you knew it would come to this, and it has, look we all don't live forever get that through your head, if we don't get those armors then Melissa's death was in vain," she said.

"I want this to end, I want my cousin, back," she cried. Alec set her hand on her daughter's shoulder, "I know, and Sara does too, but tomorrow will be our final test and then we can go home," she said. Jenny looked at her mother, "Mom, I don't want to go home," she said wiping the tears from her eyes.

Orion walked over to them, "Jenny, you know you can't stay here, you have your time, and I have mine," he walked over to her. Jenny shook her head, "No, don't say that Orion, I'm not leaving you," she said. Orion shook his head, "No, you are to go back to the 21 century, Jenny I love you too, but it has to be this way," he said.

Jenny shot a look at her mother, "I am not going back," she said angrily. Alec shook her head, "You are going back to our time, Jenny only a few hours have pasted back there while here, it's been months. We have been lucky so far, but after the war, is over, the time lines will return to normal and then we would never see you again. You have a life back home; we all do, and so stop crying, Melissa will be there when we return."

Orion nodded, "Melissa is back in your time already, because you technically can't die in this time, at least willingly," said Amenhotep stepping in to the room suddenly. All three of them jumped, "Father," said Orin. "Pharaoh," said Jenny and Alec, "please don't snick up on us like that," requested Alec glaring with her deep sky blue eyes at him.

Amenhotep smirked, "I have just come to see what the waves of sadness are in my council chambers were, that I felt, and I see now it was Jenny again," he sighed. Jenny nodded, "I am sorry my Pharaoh, I couldn't sleep," she said, "Losing Melissa is hard for me," she said.

Amenhotep, nodded, "Yes, I lost two people I cared about, Jenny in time the pain will subside and you will be back to your old self. Orin, take Jennifer to bed and I want you two to get some rest you both have a long day tomorrow, for it is your birthday my son," he said. Orin nodded his head, "Yes father, come on Jenny," he said extending his hand to her as she sat at the table.

Jenny looked at the Pharaoh as if saying something to him and then she looked at Orion, "Okay," she said quickly and taking Orion's hand. Jenny and Orion left the room quickly and Alec looked at the Pharaoh, "So, why did you send them off to bed?" she asked leaning on a chair. Amenhotep smiled, "Because tomorrow another she cares for will die, Alexandra, and it's my son's birthday, what do you think I should do," he said.

Alec looked at the Pharaoh, "Who going to die next, Jenny didn't say who it was that was going to get the god armors? And why did you call off that little run the minute Jenny mentioned it to get the armors," she asked. Amenhotep looked down, "Your step sister, Sara will take the place which your daughter, Jenny, while she is to summon Obelisk's armor," he answered, "They aren't ready to be released yet," he finished.

Alec sighed, "Will Sara and Melissa be?" she asked. Amenhotep nodded, "They will be fine, when you all return back to your time they will be there waiting for you all to wake up," he said. Alec nodded, "Thank you Amenhotep, however I wish you told Jenny that, it would probably make the pain stop," she said. Amenhotep smiled, "I did, she just didn't hear me when I told her earlier, that's why I never feared the consequences of her and Orion," he said and walked away.

Alec returned to her chambers, Seto was lying on the bed awake waiting for his wife to return, "Wondering when you would get back, usually it doesn't take you hours to get back from checking on the kids," he spoke. Alec shut the door, "Jenny was in the council chambers again, Orin and she went to bed, and they are probably having sex as we speak," she snapped.

Seto laughed, "Probably not, Jenny asked him to wait, and you still disapprove of the guy when he almost the perfect match for our little girl," he said. Alec shook her head, "With the way Orin has been handling Jenny, I am impressed with the boy, but Seto, you and Jenny should have told me the truth right from the start, about the whole sex thing," she snapped. Seto rolled his eyes, "You know, as well as I do that you don't like boys even looking at your daughters, or else you would castrate them, and we did tell you, just you didn't catch on, you're losing your touch when it comes to catching hints," he laughed. "You're paying for that Seto," she said sliding in to bed next to him.

Seto grinned, "Really! Because what I see is your about to pleasure me," he said. Alec smirked, "Your right I was about to, but now I am going to sleep, good night," she said turning on her side. Seto just felt the hard cold slap of Alec's hand, breaking his libido, "I hate it when you tempt me," he growled.

Alec smirked and rolled over to face Seto, "I love you, too," she said. Seto smiled, "You haven't said that in a long time, you know that," he said. Alec smiled, "I know but I have shown you enough right?" she asked.

Seto rolled to his side and pulled Alec close to him, "Of course you have," he said. Alec pulled Seto close to her, "You know we'll get through this, and fine a way home," she said. Seto nodded, "I know," he said kissing Alec on the head the two made out on the bed and soon fell a sleep in each other's arms.

Meanwhile back in Orion and Jenny's room, Jenny sat on the bed, looking at Orion, "I can't do this," she said looking at the floor. Orion looked at her hard, "Jenny it's not that hard now is it," he said. Jenny rolled her eyes, "This isn't fair," she snapped.

Orion pulled Jenny close, "It's not that hard to do, come on already," he said letting her go. Jenny looked at him, "Orion, I am not doing it, it's gross," she said. Orion rolled his eyes, "fine well row sham boa for it, again," he said rolling his eyes.

Jenny smirked, "Now you're talking my language," she said ready to win this time. "ROCK PAPER SISSORS," said Orion as the he and Jenny laid out there hands. Jenny held a fist while Orion held his palm flat meaning paper and paper beats Jenny's rock, "looks like I win again," he joked. Jenny growled, "Darn it you win again, ok 12 out of 13," she snapped.

"Come just get it over with, or else it's going to get even fuller and I know you don't like smelling like pee, not do it," snapped Orion. Jenny got off the bed, "fine, I will do it," she snapped.

Orion sat on the bed, "good, now go," he said pointing down at something. Jenny walked over to a large bowl it had liquid in it, "Orion, your going to pay for this," she said. Orion laughed, "Hey while you're dumping the chamber pot you might want to…" he was quickly silenced by an empty pot landing on top of his head.

"Not funny Jenny," he said as Jenny rolled on the floor with laughter, "Now I know why they call that the head in my time," she said.

Orion lifted the chamber pot off his head, "you know my hair is going to smell like urine all night, now, thanks to you," he said. Jenny laughed, "No that was clean one, I am over here with the filled and dirty one, yuck," she said squeezing her face at the smell of it, "when was the last time you had this thing emptied," she said, lifting up the full pot over to the balcony. While laughing Orion spoke, "All you have to do is pore it out, now get on with it," he said to her.

Jenny nodded and placed the pot on the edge by a small cannel that ran all the way down to the garden. Jenny took the pot, poured the urine in to the cannel, and put the pot down. "Happy now Mr. Pee head," she said, crossing her arms.

Orion nodded, "That is Prince Pee head to you," he said, "and you forgot something." Jenny smiled, "Yeah I am going to bed now," she said walking towards the door. "OH no, you don't," said Orion moving to stop Jenny, "You sleep in my room now," he said with a grin, "Remember." Jenny smirked, "No, I am to sleep in Melissa's old room. Good night Prince Pee Pee," she laughed and left the room.

"JENNIFER!" he yelled through the door, as Jenny slipped in to her new room. Jenny shut the door while Orion opened his and Jenny locked hers. Jenny looked at the dark room; it had a window but no balcony to it and it was plain.

Jenny walked over to the window and looked out, she could see the courtyard and the stables, and she smiled to herself for even getting out of Orion's room in one piece. She did not want to spend the night with him anyways, it was his birthday in the morning and that meant they would be sleeping together, it had been a while since they last did anything on that level of intimacy.

Jenny looked around, and soon she found she was not alone, "Who's there?" she spoke. "No one you shouldn't worry about," said a cold deep voice. Jenny felt the hairs on her neck soon stand on end, "Who are you?" she said.

The voice laughed, "Who am I Jenny, you should know better," he said. Jenny moved over to one of the dressers, and reached for one the daggers that she knew Melissa kept near by, but it was gone.

"Looking for that?" asked the male's voice, a knife was placed at her throat. Jenny started to breath hard but then she realized the man in the room was not alone, the one holding the knife was female she could tell in the darkness of the room. The knife was not in the right place on her neck to hurt her, though and this puzzled Jenny's mind for a moment.

"Orion…" Jenny tried to speak as a hand quickly covered her mouth. "Can we just do it already?" asked the female's voice. Jenny shook her head as a blindfold fell over her eyes and a gag went in her mouth. Jenny soon felt ropes on her hands and feet as she was lifted off the ground.

Something about the hold was familiar, yet gentle as if they did not want to hurt her yet they took her down some stairs and then back up the stairs, she heard doors and then to a dark and cold room in the palace, she guessed. Jenny felt wind blow through the room she knew where she was, as she felt her body was thrown against a large cold slab that she had hit before.

"Hmm, that was fun," said the male's voice as he removed Jenny ropes around her ankles she knew with her hands tied she was defenseless, but then she felt her feet free and she kicked angrily at the person at her feet.

"Tie her legs back up so she doesn't kick you in the face," said a cold female voice. "But it easier to get to her into it, with her legs are free to move," said the cold male's voice.

Jenny knew what was going to happen even if she knew where she was, she was not going to be taken by anyone especially in the Star Wheel trials room. Jenny tried to spit out the gag but something was holding it down on her mouth. "Get that leg and I will tie this one," said the female's voice again.

Jenny felt four hands grab her legs and strap them apart on the table, Jenny closed her eyes even though she was blindfolded, she feared the worst was about to come as she felt the cool breeze of the night run across her soon to be naked body as her lower part of her dress was ripped off. Jenny did not want this she did not need it, not now, not after Melissa's death.

Jenny screamed against the gag but no sound came from it, "This will be fun, better then her past form," said the male's voice. Jenny knew now whom it was that had done this too her, and she was not happy to hear it. "Quiet," said a new female's voice a really younger voice, "I don't want you to do that to her just yet, she seems to be frighten, and I told you two not to scar the living day lights out of her, when you got her from Melissa's room," she said.

"Well that's because she can't see us, or else she won't have kick his head," said the male's voice. Jenny focused her mind she sensed five people in the room, three males and two females. "Slap her she is scanning the room," shouted the female. Jenny felt a hand smack her across the face, not hard enough to leave a mark, but enough to throw her senses for a moment.

Jenny was almost knocked out by it, "Not that hard," said the young female's voice. "I didn't mean to hit her that hard," said another male's voice, "I can't help it if my fists, does that much damage," he whined.

"Silence both of you now, I have to check her eyes, to see if she is awake, still," said the cruel male's voice. Jenny felt hands over her face as she tried again to spit out the gag, but it just went deeper in to her mouth almost causing her to choke.

"Is she awake still?" asked a familiar voice it was a females by the sound of it. "Yes she is, and I think she is choking on the gag, pull it out, why you guys thought that was a good idea is beyond me," ordered the cruel voice as his hands moved over her face.

Jenny heard the sound of four feet moving close to her, "I am not taking it out you do it," said another male. "Fine, but if she screams for Orion, he will have your head, or worse ruin the surprise for his birthday," said a little girl's voice. Jenny suddenly recognized the voice it was the younger voice and familiar, it was Jenna's, 'What is she doing here, and why am I begin kidnapped?' Jenny thought and questioned.

"For crying out loud would some one please put her skirt back on, I don't like her underwear," said Jenna. "Fine, Princess, you get your wish," said the cruel voice placing Jenny's skirt back on her. Jenny soon heard a slap on someone's face, "Don't say who I am," snapped Jenna as the gag was removed from Jenny's mouth. "Jenna?" spoke Jenny after coughing a few times.

"Now you have done it, she knows I am here," snapped Jenna. Jenny focused all she could on the girl's mind. "Jenna!" yelled Jenny in Jenna's mind. Jenna turned in the darkness of her mind to Jenny, "You should get out while you can, Jennifer," warned Jenna.

"What, are going to do to me, why are you doing this?" she asked in the mind world. Jenny felt a slap across her face again this time enough to knock her out but she did not again.

Jenny pulled out of Jenna's mind, "Don't get in to her head, that is scared grounds you touch," said a new female's voice.

"Mother, calm down," said another female's voice that sounded as a child inside Jenny's head. "Yeah don't worry mom your going to be fine, don't say a word and you will be fine, ok," said the young man's voice also in Jenny's mind suddenly.

Jenny woke up not knowing she had passed out and tried to stay quiet but it was hard to, as she soon felt hands mover over her body. "I want a try," said a male's voice.

"Keep your hand in those pockets," snapped another familiar female voice, "she has to be ready, body and mind, for crying out loud." Jenny could not figure out what for, what were they doing to her, or better yet what was she going to do?

"Jenny," spoke Jenna, "I am here its ok, don't panic, alright," she took Jenny's hand. Jenny took a deep breath, and nodded with the blind fold still on, "Ok, you're up," said Jenna to some one in the room. Jenny heard footsteps approach her, she tried to keep her senses down but soon found something touch her lips.

Jenny closed her eyes behind the blind fold again, 'NO her mind cried, these lips are for Orion, not you'. Jenna squeezed, Jenny's hand, "Don't fight, it, your ok," she whispered. Jenny soon felt the thing on her lips move away; it was not lips that had touched hers, but something else.

Jenny heard the footsteps back away from her; "Can I go yet?" asked a male's voice in a whine. Jenna yelled, "NO! Your turn will be last, if she makes it through the others to prepare her."

Jenny did not know what to think or who were these others is that Jenna spoke. Jenny knew that something was going to happen to her, weather for good or evil. Jenna called the next one up, "Ok, you behave," she said to Jenny as she felt something move her skirt again. Jenny thought about Orion, wishing it were he was around her, not the other guy, 'Get off my skirt only Orion can touch me' she thought.

Jenny soon felt the person move away, "She is almost ready, just a few finishing touches and she will be ready, not we get to take off the blind fold," said Jenna. Jenny thought for a moment what could be going on, Jenny soon felt the blind fold lift off her eyes they were still shut.

"Well Isis, looks like you had Jenny scared half to death her eyes are closed shut, and so tight you may need to use your wrinkle remover," said a male. "Marik we aren't supposed to use names, oh great look what you just made me do!" snapped Isis. Jenny opened one eye hoping that she would not be hit in the face for it.

"Marik, Isis, Troy, Andy?" spoke Jenny, "What is going on here?" she asked looking at them. Andy smirked at his sister, "Well getting you ready for Orin's birthday party, silly, sorry Marik and Isis scared you in your room like they did," he said. Jenny shook her head, "WHAT!" she said feeling her arms become free from the ropes as Jenna untied them. "Jenna, what the…" she said as Jenna held up a mirror to Jenny's face showing her, she had a completely new look and new clothes on her.

"What the heck did you five do to me?" she asked, touching her face with surprise, in a way liking how her make up which was lipstick and blush all that was left to do was her eyes. "Told you she would like it," said Marik.

Jenny narrowed her eyes, she recognized the voice now that was last, "Andy, you prevented pain in the…" she was standing up but soon fell over. "Whoa, calm down there…," said Amenhotep, who was behind her. Jenny nearly fell over, "What is…" she sighed, "Ouch my head hurts some one tells me, what is really going on here?" she said still confused.

Amenhotep explained that Jenny was to be betrothed to Orin, since after the war they may be separated, so why not make the two officially set to marry since Jenny had made up her mind to stay. Jenny stood up from her spot, she looked at herself she was wearing a long white dress and her brown hair was filled with scented oils and hung over her shoulders. Jenna smiled, "You look like Jena," she said.

Jenny smiled at the girl, "thanks, but how did you guys get me out of my night clothes?" she asked. Isis laughed, "Marik here knocked you out for a while, you fell asleep, actually," she said. Jenny must have blacked out when she was slapped the first time for everything was blank now but two little voice that spoke to her to calm down ran through her head, as is she had jumped to hearing her future children talk her down.

"So, why the secrecy? You just had to kidnap me and make me feel violated," Jenny asked in a snappy tone, looking at Amenhotep, and everyone else. Marik and Isis gave Jenny a hug, "Sorry about the knife thing but we had to make it look real," she said.

Jenny looked at them, "You two did this, why?" she asked. "My dad and I wanted to know something and you confirmed it, when you kept thinking about my brother, said Jenna. Jenny looked at Amenhotep, she then remembered her thoughts while she felt them touching her "You were testing me?" she said.

Jenna took Jenny's hand, "You love my brother, and no one will touch you again Jennifer, I know Orin loves you, or else he wouldn't be such a pain in the butt right now, about why he can't get to you," she smiled. "Speaking of Orin, we have to get to our places, Jennifer, I am going to ask you to stay here, since Orin isn't suppose to see his birthday present yet," laughed Amenhotep.

Jenny smiled, "Sure I will be here, but um, what am I going to do all day?" she asked. Amenhotep smiled, "You are going to prep for the party, because it eye make up time," said Andy, "and Kate will be here soon with your food not to mention some very interesting scrolls she found in the library for you to read."

Kate smiled at Jenny as they watched the guests arrive for Orion's birthday party from a near by balcony, Jenny was positively glowing with excitement and the best part Orion wasn't going to know it was her until he took off her vial. "Hey Dad said you should enjoy tonight, he also sends his blessings," said Kate as she finished brushing Jenny's long brown hair.

Jenny looked at her sister, "I know Egyptian customs pretty well, but doesn't Mom have to agree too?" she asked. Kate nodded and turned Jenny's head so she could finis brushing hair, "Yes, and she did gave her approval that you and Orin would be married, she didn't specify when, though but all is though to take place after the war," giggled Kate. Jenny laughed, "I hope Orion been ok with out seeing me all day," she said.

Kate shook her head, "He didn't even know you were gone, Jenna made a mind projection of you sick in bed all day long, and Orin did want to go in to Melissa's old room to keep you company but Amenhotep talked him out of it by saying.

"The presentation of the crown prince's birthday, was more important right now then trying to care for the sickly Seer,"" Kate spoke impersonating Amenhotep's voice in the quotes, then returning to her normal tone while laughing. "So he is going to be really surprised to see you tonight," she added with a smile.

"I think you should know Jenny, that I am very proud of you," said Kate suddenly sounding serious. "How?" asked Jenny, "How can you be proud of someone like me, when I haven't done much," she said.

Kate smiled, "I am your sister would you rather I be mad at you all the time and say you're a disgrace, no way, I am proud of you because even if you don't know it your stronger then you look," she said. Jenny was still confused, and Kate knew it and tried to explain. "You see, you're my sister you gave up your happiness in order to keep everyone in our family together, no one told you years ago to take that vow of silence, until Dad came back," she said.

Jenny nodded, "Yeah, but still," she said, sounding like she still did not fit for the title of a sister to be proud of in anyway. Kate sighed, "Oh Ra, are you so stubborn, Jenny, I am trying to be nice here, ok," she said taking out a brush to finish Jenny's hair. "What?" said Jenny surprised. "Yes, I know I been nice to you for years, but out of me and Andy you are the most like any of our parents. Yes, I know Andy acts like Dad in ways, and I like mom sometimes, and vice versa, but we do split in 3rds, however you show a more, equal side to it. You put up with more then Andy and I have, you have faced loneliness, and now my little sister your in love. So stop thinking you don't fit in with this family of ours ok, all I am saying is Jenny if anyone was considered the strongest Kaiba you would be it, you don't need to be famous to be in the family," Kate finished.

Jenny nodded, slightly, "but how did you? Oh never mind," sighed Jenny, not knowing what to say. Kate laughed as she ran the comb and brush through Jenny's long brown hair, "I know, or am I not your sister?" she asked. Jenny laughed, "Umm, do I really have to answer that," she said. Kate pulled her sister's hair playfully, "What am I going to do with you little sister," she said. Jenny thought of a moment, "How about you, be my maid of honor," she said.

Kate smiled, "I would like that, you know I think you and I are bonding, so don't let that go to your head," she said quickly. Jenny laughed, "Well then since were bonding, what are, you and Troy going to be doing tonight?" she asked. Kate sat back, and her mouth a gaped, "Umm, what are you talking about nothing is going on with me and the mutt puppy," she said.

Jenny started laughing, "I am the Seer remember I know all," she said. Kate playfully hit her sister in the head, "Hey stay out of my head, you," she said. Jenny giggled, "Oh so you still like him?" she asked. Kate sighed, "Yes, I do, and if you tell Dad, he will flip out again," she said. Jenny laughed, "You dated him before and Dad didn't care," she said.

Kate nodded, "Yes, but he wasn't around as much, then, and after high school we did go out on a few dates and you remember the rest," she said. Jenny started laughing, "Yeah spring break in Hawaii," she said. Kate hit her sister a little harder this time, "Knock it off, my sex life has nothing to do with yours," she said. Jenny killed over laughing, "right, sure it doesn't so are you two sharing a room again?" she asked.

The blush on Kate's face made her as red as a ripe apple, "Ok yes, happy, now, I am making up with him tonight. Anyways it your night with Orin right, so I am going to finish your hair here, and you think of that sexy prince that will soon be my brother in law," she said. Jenny nodded and closed her eyes picturing the moment when Orion would remove the vial off her face, she thought about the reaction she was going to get and that they were engaged now, to be together forever even in there time of darkness.

Little did anyone know that the storm was coming, as a figure walked into the cave of the gods Obelisk, Ra and Slyfer, knowing that the only way to keep her family safe she must wake them. Two figures stood in the darkness of the cave, "The deal is off, we strike tonight," said a female to her male companion, "I want my son, Orion, back now."

Reviewer notes:

Darkstar: Yes, it was sad of me to kill off Melissa like that but do not worry it is not as if she is going to be gone forever. I am glad that you liked the table scene that I wrote a few chapters back, I had a lot of fun writing that scene too. In addition, the nickname thing of Jenny and Jena having the same name did bite for a while at least for Jenny anyways. I am getting good at the hinting don't, you think? HEHEHHEHE, anyways, I will have to keep you waiting on the edge of your seat for the next chapter, which is the birthday party but I am not giving anything away.

Twilight Memories: it was Jenna that witnessed the event not Jena, she was the one raped, but that is ok. I know the names are just too similar to tell the difference. I am glad you do not like Malachite since he is going to be the bad guy here in the next chapter (whoops) how did, I let that one get out, hehehehehehe. Anyways I am doing better now, my depression is lifting, slowly now just get my ex to move on with his life. Yep Sara is next to leave but that's in the next chapter hope you like the filler here, and I hope I did not scare you or anyone else with Jenny's FAKE kidnapping. Lol

Well I might put another chapter up today I might put it up tomorrow I don't know I am in editing mode and the chapters from here on out are long so I hope you all like to read a lot lol. Good news to all my depression is lifting and I am doing much better now, well have to go edit time. YAY 
