Chapter 22
The New problems
It had been nearly a week since Jenny awoke and the war had been over, Orion held Jenny close to him, as she lay on her back in his old room. A knock on the door woke them both.
"WHAT?" asked Jenny, in a sleepy voice, looking at the door? Andy popped his head in the room, "You up?" he asked. Jenny glared at her brother as Orion sat up, "Yes were awake now, enjoying some sleep, until you knocked on the door, until the sun rose," snapped Jenny as her big brother entered.
"Well, excuse me for following our parents' orders but they wanted me to see if you were awake because they are leaving with our Uncles, to try and find new way home," said Andy.
Jenny moved her eyes squinted as her lower part of her body hurt, "They are leaving today? Why so soon?" she asked. Andy shook his head, "Because we don't know when were going back, Jenny. I know you want to stay and we all agree to that, but, the rest of us want to go back to our own time," he said.
Jenny nodded and look at Orion, "I can't just let my family leave without saying good bye," she said. Orion nodded, "I will get the chair and have the servants take you to them," he said. Jenny shook her head, "No, I am going to walk," she said. Orion and Andy shook there heads, "Oh no, you don't," they both said knowing that they did not want anything to happen to the young woman.
Jenny glared at both of them, "I am walking ok, look it been a week, I am fine, I been walking to the chamber pot, so I think I can handle it," she said. "Jenny you're talking about a few steps, compared to the whole palace," said Orion. Andy went over to his sister, and picked her up as Orion slipped out of bed, "You fight me and I will give you to Orion, and then he can handle you," he said.
Jenny glared, "I hate it when you baby me, no change that I hate being treated like one," she snapped. Kate stood in the doorway, "Well if our baby sister looks so cute when she doesn't get her way, ha, ha," she laughed at Jenny about to strangle Andy as he was holding her.
"Your next you know that," said Orion as Andy handed him Jenny. "I am not a toy, so why do you boys have to keep passing me around?" she snapped. "Because they love you, care about you, and don't know how to take simple directions such as just check to see if you're up and if so let us know," said Seto standing with Alec, Yugi, and Mokuba next to Kate.
Jenny smiled at her father, "So does this mean what I think it means?" she asked. Seto nodded, as Orion placed Jenny back on the bed, "Stay, Jenny," said Seto.
Jenny glared, "I am not a puppy Dad, Troy and Joey are that low in the department of dogs," she snapped at her father in a joking manner. "Speaking of Troy," said Kate, "I have to meet with him right now, so I will say good luck to your four and I am off to go play with MY mutt puppy," she kissed her Dad and Uncles on the cheek and ran down the hall. Andy shook his head, "I won't let him marry her until you all get back, I swear," he reassured Seto and Alec.
"Speaking of marriage," snapped Alec, "Orion did you and Jenny, last night?" she asked. Orion and Jenny, "NO!" they both said tired of that question for the past week. "Frankly I am getting a little sick of that dam question MOM," snapped the 17 year old girl with bandages around her stomach and back.
Alec smiled, "Good, just checking, you two aren't to sleep together like that until your father and I get back," she snapped. Seto laughed, "What are you going to do to stop our horny children, your going to be far away, so how can you release the hounds on them?" he asked. Alec turned red, "If they do it while were gone, you get none Seto Kaiba, how about that Mr. Smarty pants," she smirked.
Seto squinted, his eyes, "On second thought don't, but I need to talk to your mother for a minute alone. Orion is Melissa' room set up?" he asked quickly. Orion nodded, "Yeah, soundproof too," he said.
Seto smirked and pulled Alec in to Melissa's old room, moan were heard an hour later. Jenny laughed, "Well nothing like Sex before a trip," said Yugi and Mokuba. Jenny smiled, "Well at least I get to say good bye to you two," she said. Yugi and Mokuba walked over to their niece, "You get better ok, I don't know how long were going to be gone, but you take care of yourself, if you need anything, just tell Yamu, ok," said Mokuba.
Yugi nodded, "Same for Tea too, Matt and Jade are under the same orders, Joey and Mai will be here with Troy, Andy and Kate, however Marik and Isis are coming with us, it sucks that they didn't get back through the gate before Saran destroyed it," he said letting go of his niece. "It would have been nice to Marik go off on Malachite, but we all can't have our ways," said Andy. Yugi shook his head, "You take care Jen, and be a good girl."
"Thanks, I will, don't I always," said Jenny smiling, Yugi turned his gaze towards Orion, "You take care of her," he said. Orion, nodded, "I swear as Pharaoh, I will take care of Jenny, to the very best of my extended being," he smiled. Andy laughed, "Just say you will take care of her is enough, we don't need to know about the sex part," he laughed.
Jenny breath a laugh, "I am surprise Andy you haven't been with anyone since we got here," spoke Jenny suddenly. Andy smirked, "I am cleaver enough to keep my girls quiet at night, not mention, I have many women," he smiled. Jenny laughed at her bother, "You mean, all the servant girls in wash room," said Orion "so it was you." Andy's eyes popped open, "How did know!" he demanded.
"Don't you think I go down there too, I heard the moans and your name from 6 of the 9 girls down there at one time," said Orion, "that and I am Pharaoh don't you think I know that stuff?"
Andy went to bright shade of pink, "Umm, no comment, but why were you down there anyways?" asked Andy. Orion smirked, "I was washing up, and Jenny just happened to be asleep up here," he said.
Jenny shot a glare, "You haven't did you?" she asked. Orion shook his head, "Hey did I ever give a reason not to trust me besides you can tell how long I been holding back," he said. Jenny smirked and looked at her brother, "Busted," she laughed.
Seto and Alec came out of Melissa's old room, "I hope the bed is still DRY, Dad," snapped Andy, "that's my room now." Seto laughed, "Want to test that theory?" he said glaring at his son.
Jenny laughed, "Dad and mom don't leave messes, I should know," she giggled. Andy glared at her, "And how would the powerful Seer know about this?" he asked. Jenny smirked, "because I caught them in your room once, and you never knew it," she laughed. Andy's jaw dropped his parents' did as well for they did not know she caught them.
Orion laughed, "Ok, enough sex talk or I am going to have to do Jenny, and we don't want her more injured then she already is," he spoke. Seto and Alec bow their heads to the young Pharaoh, "Then we will make this good bye a quick one," said Mokuba.
Jenny sat up as both her parent hugged her good bye, "You behave and do what the Pharaoh tells you, after Yamu gives the healing ok," said Seto in Jenny's ear so Alec would not hear him. Jenny nodded, "I will be a good Ultimate Dragon," she spoke letting a tear fall down her face. Seto pulled Jenny closer he did not want to leave his daughter, his pride and joy the third little light in his life.
"Be good Blue eyes," he said kissing Jenny's forehead. Alec nudged Seto over, "I will take care of your father, and this time once you're better, also don't get pregnant ok," she smiled.
Jenny nodded, "I will try Mother," she said with a sneering tone in her voice. Mokuba and Yugi gave Jenny one last hug, and they all left the room, Jenny had Orion and Andy help her to the balcony and watched as Mokuba, Yugi, Seto, Alec, Isis and Marik rode off into the unknown.
(Orin's name is Orion from now on since he had chosen the name of Pharaoh Orion)
A loud moan was heard through out the palace, as a female voice filled the halls, Andy opened his door to his new room aka Melissa's/Jenny's old room and looked at Jenny's new room door which flew open with his sister looking at him puzzled. If either of them were not making the moans then that left, Jenny looked at her old room that was down the hall, they looked at each other, as Orion walked down from his room to join the two Kaibas.
"Would some one tell me who that is?" asked Andy, looking at Jenny and Orion. Another loud moan filled the hall, "Well it isn't us," said Jenny looked at Orion and then her brother.
Orion walked to Jenny's old bedroom door, he put his ear to it a listened, and he smirked and motioned Jenny to come over. Jenny listened as she heard tumbling, yelling and moaning from her old room. Jenny put her hand over her mouth as she started to suppress the giggles when she listened more. Andy walked over and listened he pulled Jenny from the door, "Oh Ra, Dad is going to kill me, shit I am so dead," he said.
Jenny laughed, "You're not the only one," she laughed moving back from the door. Orion followed Jenny and Andy as they headed to his room, "Hey you two out of here," he snapped. Jenny smirked when she got to Orion's new balcony she pointed to her old room balcony across the way, "Four guesses who is who in there," she said. Orion and Andy looked at the room; they saw not two but four figures in there.
"Somebody pinch, me," said Andy, "an Egyptian Orgy and I wasn't invited." Jenny giggled, "Wonder if that is Yamu, or Mai?" she said squinting her eyes. Orion slapped Jenny up side the head, "No, it your sister," he said, "and Mai," he finished.
Andy shook his head, and watched, "And that would Troy hang over the edge of the balcony," he said. Kate soon joined him on the balcony both breathing hard. Andy and Jenny broke out laughed, "Oh man," said Jenny turning from the sight.
"My twin sister with Troy and his parents, oh this is forever burned in my brain," said Andy "GROSS." Jenny shook her head, "At least they weren't in the hall," she said in a slow voice.
Orion looked over from his balcony, he saw the other two figures come out, "Well I have good news and bad news for you two," he said. Jenny turned, "Tell," she said slowly. "Good news that isn't Troy's parents," he said. Jenny and Andy sighed breathes of relief, "However, those are my two new high Mages, and one is right now make out Kathleen," he said in upset tone.
Andy and Jenny shuddered, "You know when we get back home, I am putting our sister throw the ringer," said Andy. Jenny nodded, "I am not going back, I have my lover right here," she said grabbing Orion.
"Whoa, hold up, Yamu said in three days you could do it," said Andy slowly, "I don't need an injured sister." Jenny smirked, "Dah, I know that, she didn't say I couldn't hug or kiss him, just no SEX, Andy," she snapped. Orion laughed, "She has you there, Andrew," he said.
Andy nodded, "Well the orgy stopped so I am going to go to the bathing room, and do my own thank you," he said walking away. Jenny raised an eyebrow, "you know I really hate it when everyone one else can get laid and I can't," groaned Jenny. Orion laughed, "You aren't alone, on that one my Queen," he said giving Jenny a kiss on the lips then carrying her off to his bed to cuddle for the night.
The sun rose over the golden palace and city everything had returned to normal it had been a whole month since the end of the war, Jenny had made a full recovery, and was ready the minute Yamu gave the ok after delaying it many time, so Jenny to make up lost time with Orion. Yamu was looking over Jenny's scars and her back when Orion popped his head in the recovery room.
"Well?" he asked stepping in. Yamu laughed, "Well what?" she looked at Jenny's stab wound on her back. Jenny lifted her head, "Am I good, or do I have to wait more weeks again?" she asked. Yamu smiled, "Ok, one more day, but I am to look you over one more time, just to make sure, then you can sleep with him," she said.
Jenny pulled her dress back over her head, Yamu made Orion turn around, "You may want her now, but remember just one cycle of Ra and you will, have her, again ok," she whispered, "But be gentle also." Orion nodded his head to what Yamu said, he could not wait for the minute Jenny and he would be in the Pharaoh's chambers becoming one again.
A guard rushed in and disrupted his train of thought, "My Pharaoh," he said panting, "Yes!" said Orion. "I have just received word from the gate that Lady Nefertiti is here," he said. Orion eyes widened, "WHAT!" he said moving past the guard in to the hall, "WHEN!" he demanded from the guard.
Jenny moved from the room, "What is going on? Orion?" she asked as she watched Orion dismiss the guard and put his hand on his forehead for one of his fears had come back to haunt him. Yamu put her hand on Jenny's shoulder and looked at Orion, "What's it? Would someone please tell me what is going on?" demanded Jenny.
"My betrothed, Jenny, is on her way to the palace, she just got here through the gates," said Orion in a slow monotone voice, "or should I say, the woman Amenhotep was going to have me marry before I met you," Orion rubbed his temple after saying that.
"I sent her a letter saying that we were going to have to review the terms of the betrothal, two months ago after I fell in love with you," he spoke leaning against the wall. "Didn't think she would respond in person," snapped Yamu. Orion nodded, "Yep, I thought she would be mad enough to send the messenger's head back, but obviously she didn't," he sighed, "Sending his head back would have meant it was off, but looks like she thought different, if I am not careful this could bring up another war."
Jenny shook her head, "No, don't tell me that she is…" Jenny paused she didn't want to say it, not when she was so close to marrying Orion, just one more day and they would be officially married, because the ceremony would be preformed the minute Jenny was well.
Jenny saw that slipping away now, in Orion's deep eyes, "Orion," she said grabbing, on to him, as she neared tears. Orion took Jenny in his arms, "I guess we are just going to have to get through this," he said. Jenny nodded, "As Seer, I will be in the throne room when she arrives," spoke Jenny. Orion shook his head, "No, go to your room, put on your best attire, my Seer shouldn't look like a peasant which I have to say you look great no matter what your wearing," he spoke like a king at that moment.
Jenny nodded and quickly left for her room, Yamu looked at Jenny as she quickly went. "You honestly didn't think this would happen?" Yamu asked crossing her arms. Orion banged his fist against the wall a gleam of gold surrounded his fist, "To be honest Yamu. I never sent the letter my father did, and now I am going to have to marry Nefertiti and make Jenny my, my…" he didn't want to say it Jenny was more then that to him, more then his kingdom, title or even his heart.
Yamu placed her hand on Orion's shoulder, "I know, but Jenny will accept what ever choice you must make," she said. Orion punched the wall as hard as he could his hand quickly clad itself in Ra Armor to prevent injury to his hand.
Yamu's eyes widened now seeing the armor form, "You still have your armor?" she spoke. Orion nodded, "Even if Jenny's and the other's armors are gone, only the Pharaoh must keep the peace, that and I still have the other two to keep safe," he spoke.
Yamu smiled, "You are a good King, you are the best one to fix this mess, so do so before my niece's heart gets broken. We all remember what happened last time you broke it, and who knows what will happen if you did it again except this time it involves another woman, who is alive this time," spoke Yamu in a cautioning voice.
Orion nodded and walked off the thrown room, Yamu leaned against the wall, "Mokuba, you better fine the way home soon, or Jenny might have a broken heart longer then she wants to have, and then who knows what will happen," she whispered a prayer as she walked back in the recovery room for the next patient.
Jenny dress in her best outfit, which was a long white silk dress with a long blue cape; she figured it would do, since she was considered next to royalty in the palace and being a member of the court it was her duty.
Orion was sitting on his throne when Jenny arrived, he had his right fist under his chin meaning he was in deep thought however seeing Jenny broke that, "Wow, you look great," he said, looking Jenny over. She smiled at him. "You asked that I dressed my best Pharaoh Orion," she said in a respectful tone of voice, instead of her young immature voice that she, offended used when they talked.
Orion smiled, "Glad you can make your voice sound like your royalty because Nefertiti won't accept, you're my Seer, she would see right throw you out or worse," he said quickly as the doors opened. Jenny looked at Orion; he motioned her to sit in Jenna's old spot, as some troops clad in blue and red armor walked in.
A tall and slender figure walked through the door after the troops lined up straight in the Pharaoh's chambers. Jenny looked at Orion as he stood up; he put his palm on the throne telling her to stay seated.
A woman wearing a long silky white grown with long blonde golden hair hung over her shoulders down to her waist, a little spiked crown sat upon her forehead. Jenny thought this was the most amazing young woman she had ever seen, a small bit of jealously ran through her veins knowing this woman could take Orion from her.
The woman walked out to Orion's throne steps as her stepped forward Jenny stood up, "Seer," he said in a deep commanding tone. Jenny kept her place knowing not to show any sign of her affection towards Orion.
"Hello Lady Nefertiti," Orion said kissing her soft tan hand as he approached the young princess. Nefertiti smiled, "Hello Pharaoh Orion, it is nice to see you again," she smiled. Jenny saw Nefertiti's smile, it was as if looking at an angel, this made Jenny feel so bad, how in the world could, she deny Orion such a beautiful woman in his time. Orion looked at Jenny for Nefertiti was looking at her; "Orion who is the Seer?" spoke the angelic woman in a soft tone.
Orion moved and motioned Jenny to come down. Jenny's blue cape and train as she stepped down to meet the Lady Nefertiti. "This is Jennifer Kaiba, my father appointed her Seer before he was killed," he said.
Jenny bowed her head in respect to the woman who would be soon Orion new queen. Andy and Kate ran in to the room quickly, dressed in there best for word had only gotten to them moments after Jenny arrived in the throne room. Lady Nefertiti turned and looked at Andy and Kate, "And these?" she asked. Orion pointed to Andy, "That is Andrew Kaiba, and twin his sister Kathleen Kaiba, they are my advisors of the royal court," he said as the two bowed at their names.
Lady Nefertiti smiled at Andy, "Well I take it the Noble family of Kaiba lives in the court?" she said. Orion quickly blushed, "There parents were my father's advisors, Alexandra and Seto Kaiba, but they are currently unavailable, so their children are taking their places in the court," he said.
Lady Nefertiti looked at Jenny, "And the Seer?" she asked. Jenny soon found herself blushing, "Umm," said Orion, "My father's pick for the Star wheel trials, about a year ago," he said quickly.
Jenny felt as if a ball was just thrown at her stomach she knew Orion could come up with better but she could see how Orion was nervous at that moment, what did this woman have the he feared?
'He was trying to impress her so that she would not go to war with him but he was doing a horrible job of hiding his feelings at that moment' Jenny guessed. Jenny sighed and closed her eyes as Orion moved Lady Nefertiti away by her sweet gentle hand. Jenny felt her face turn red as she watched Orion give Lady Nefertiti the tour of his palace.
Andy walked over to his sister and took her hand, "Don't worry it will be fine," he said quietly. Jenny closed her eyes, and nodded, praying if it were true, that Orion could only be her man and no one else's, she did not care if she was being selfish Orion was hers. Lady Nefertiti looked at Jenny as she watched the tour of the throne room; she could see Andy comforting his sister.
Jenny nodded her head, "Um, Orion, why don't we wait on the rest of the tour. I have had a long trying day to get here, and would like to see my room," she spoke. Orion looked at Jenny she nodded, "I will show you to your room Lady Nefertiti," she said. Orion walked close to Jenny, "Put her in Jenna's old room," he said.
Jenny eyes widened, he had not even been in there in over a month, but orders were orders, and the thing was that room was closer to the Pharaoh's bedroom, and that sent fear through Jenny's spine. Jenny knew that she and Orion's days of pleasure were over now. Did not matter if Yamu gave the clear, the dream was over.
Jenny finally made it to her room at the end of the day, she flopped down on her bed, and closed her eyes, she so wished Orion was with her, but then a loud moan came from her old room.
Jenny rolled her eyes in head, "KATE!" she yelled, at the top of her lungs. The moans stopped and a knock came on the door moments later, "ENTER!" Jenny snapped. Kate walked in with her clothes all a wreck her hair mangled "You better have a good reason for calling me in here, Jen, I was in the middle of…" she paused seeing her sister in tiny ball on the bed, crying suddenly.
Kate went to her little sister, "Oh, Jenny, I am so sorry, I completely forgot," she said pulling her sister close. Jenny grabbed her sister shoulders as a freighted child, for the first time in over the last year Jenny wanted to go home, "He's gone Kat, he isn't mine anymore," she cried into her sister's shoulder.
Kate rocked her sister back and fought, "I know aqua eyes I know, don't worry it will be over soon," she whispered.
Jenny continued to cry, she could not stop the tears, Troy did not help much when he came in, Kate glared at him, as he entered, "I see this is sisterly moment, I'll be in our room," he said leaving Kate and Jenny alone. Andy walked in and saw his sisters, he took Jenny in his arms so Kate could go finish her business with Troy but she refused to leave their little sister, Jenny, to Kate, was more important then sex at that moment, her sister's heart was breaking and there was nothing she could do to stop it.
Orion stood on his balcony he could see his old room, he saw Jenny with her brother and sister crying in their arms, he wanted to go to her to tell her he was sorry for not telling Nefertiti the truth about his relationship between them. However he had Nefertiti in the next room, and she would hear his door if he left. "Jenny," he whispered, "I still love you," he did not move from that spot all night, in fact he did not get any sleep at all for now he had a decision to make one that would change everything.
The next morning Jenny cleaned herself up as best she could, she felt sick as she went to the recovery room, for her check up, and at this point the ok to do as she wished. Yamu saw her niece's face and could tell she had been up all night crying.
Yamu pulled her little niece close, there were no need for words for Andy and Kate had spoken them all earlier. Yamu cleaned Jenny up with some make up and did her hair in a long brown braid, "there at least that is an improvement," she said looking at Jenny, who was not smiling.
Yamu check Jenny's scars, they were fully healed, but Jenny saw no point in them being healed now, because she would never have Orion again. Yamu and Jenny walked out of the recovery room; Orion was waiting for her at the end of the hall, "Jenny?" he spoke.
Jenny looked at him, the tears wield up in both eyes as they took each other in their arms. "Orion," she cried out holding him close to her crying into his tunic. Yamu watched out for them and banged on the wall when the guards that were on patrol approached to brake the two up. "You two want to come in here?" she asked, as Jenny and Orion walked towards her.
Jenny and Orion went in the room, Yamu stood by the door looked up and down the hall and shut the door. Orion held Jenny in his arms, "I am sorry, I didn't mean what I said yesterday," he said. Jenny nodded, "I know you were just protecting me," she smiled.
Orion kissed Jenny's soft lips, a warm feeling wielded up inside her, a feeling she had missed over the past 24 hours. Yamu smiled, "I will be in the next room keeping watch, you two talk and no, you can't do it in here so I suggest you keep this discussion brief," she said and walked out of the room. "Aunt Yamu," said Jenny. Yamu stopped and turned around, "Thank me when I start to lie for the two of you, ok," she said and left through the door in the next room.
Orion held Jenny so tight at that moment they both felt neither would breathe, "Jenny, I know it going to be hard the next couple of days, but when this is over, you will be mine and I will always be yours," he said. Jenny nodded, "I know, just don't let her in your room, I know that type of woman, so why in hell would you want me?" she asked.
Orion saw the jealously in Jenny's eyes; he knew that he had looked at Lady Nefertiti in a lust-filled way the day before. "Oh, Jenny, I would never trade you for her, not in 4000 thousands years, would I want to replace you," he said holding her face. Jenny looked at Orion, "then why were you looking at her like you would take her the first chance you got?" she asked.
Orion pulled Jenny into a deep kiss, a small tear ran down Jenny's face as it hurt her heart that she was jealous but the kiss was enough to clam her nerves.
"I love you my Princess," he said holding her, Jenny smiled, but that all she was to him now, a Princess. She would never be a queen just a lone princess to the Pharaoh of Egypt. Jenny looked up at Orion after there kiss she had looked at the floor, "I love you, but please don't say what you said to her again. I am more then your father's pick for the trials, I am yours," she said.
Orion nodded, "I am going to be showing Nefertiti around the palace, I don't want to see you sad, so I won't ask you to come," he said. Jenny nodded, "thanks, I needed to hear that, I don't want to be around her, to be honest," she said.
Orion nodded, "Ok, you don't have to be. I will tell her official business, and you go clear that little head of yours that I love so much," she said kissing her forehead. Jenny smiled, Orion loved when she did smile at him.
"Go riding or something, I will make sure your sister or brother goes with you and I will keep one of them close by so that they can tell you what happens," he said trying to get Jenny out of palace for the day.
Jenny shook her head, "No, Nefertiti, will suspect something if they are always around, you're the Pharaoh, I trust you," she said in a determined voice. Orion kissed Jenny's soft pick lips, "Then so be it, Princess Jenny," he said holding her.
A knock came at the door and Yamu popped her head in, "Kate just came down the hall, Nefertiti is awake and is looking for you, Pharaoh," she spoke. Orion nodded, "Thank you Yamu," he said as Yamu closed the door. Jenny kissed him, "Duty calls," she laughed.
Orion chuckled, "I would like to be with you tonight, but I don't know how?" he said. Jenny smiled, "When Nefertiti leaves, you and will have the best night of our lives, just don't sleep with her until you and I go at it first," she joked. Orion rolled his eyes, "a month can you really hold off on me that long?" he asked. Jenny giggled, "I can if you can my Pharaoh, then I can wait one more month or all eternity," she smirked. Orion closed his eyes, "We'll work something out," he laughed, and went to the door he knocked on it and Yamu gave the all clear.
Orion left and Jenny sat on the bed as Yamu went back in, "Well, I don't need to ask by the look on your face," she said looking at Jenny. Jenny was smiling, "He still loves me, Aunt Yamu, I a happy and I love him, I still love him," she said. Yamu walked over to Jenny moved a few bangs in her hair had fallen out of the braid, "You're not going on the tour with Nefertiti I take it?" she asked.
Jenny nodded, "Nope, I am going riding, today," she said happily. Yamu laughed, "Well as official Healer of the royal court and Pharaoh, you can go riding, just be careful not to fall off, we all know what happened last time, which when, you got that stab wound in your back."
Jenny walked out of the room laughing, "That's for the all clear Aunt Yamu," she said stepping out of the door. "Jennifer!" said angelic voice; Jenny stopped dead in her tracks and turned around she knew that voice and it was not good.
"Lady Nefertiti is something wrong?" she asked as nice and grow up as possible even though she wanted to yell at the woman. "As matter of fact there is, I have received word that you and my betrothed were to be married is this true?" spoke Nefertiti in an annoyed voice.
Jenny feared this, Orion would never get the chance to tell her now, "Yes, we were, but my parents left for their mission so it was postponed, until they return, however, Pharaoh Amenhotep didn't tell about you obviously, Orion knew he didn't tell anyone," she admitted.
Nefertiti crossed her arms, "So you were replacement after all?" she said. Jenny nodded, "I am sorry, if you're angry with me, but you know that my relationship with the Pharaoh is strictly professional, umm, now," she spoke quickly. "That's all it better be Jennifer, or else you can see you head on the chopping block," threatened Nefertiti.
Jenny felt her heart sink, she just lied about her and Orion, now a threat, she was not going to take this even if Nefertiti was more beautiful then her. Jenny hated threats, even if she was one-step lower then princess she was not going to take it, she was about to pounce on the visiting princess with a nice knuckle sandwich, however, "Jennifer!" snapped Orion.
Jenny concealed the rage with in her as Orion came approached them, "what is going on here?" he asked. Jenny leaned against the wall, "She knows about us, apparently some one told her about your birthday party," she snapped. Orion looked at Nefertiti, he saw Nefertiti's glare, Orion closed his eyes, "um, I can explain," he said. Nefertiti smirked, "Why, you relationship with her is professional isn't?" she asked. Orion looked at Jenny who raised her eyebrows, "umm yes, professional, it was more once but not anymore," he lied, letting out a long, sigh.
"Well then Pharaoh, she won't get mad if I do this," she said giving Orion a big kiss. Jenny held back all the anger that boiled in side her; she tried to turn her eyes out of respect and to keep her anger from flaring up even more now. Orion pulled Nefertiti closer, Jenny confused by this was he acting or actually enjoying it.
Nefertiti pulled away from Orion, Jenny held a stone cold face something she had inherited from Seto, "As we both have said 'it's professional'" she said and walked away almost stomping but found a change in her step would draw attention that she was jealous. Jenny stormed away angry at the sight for it made her sick to her stomach, now it was burned in her brain.
Orion looked at Nefertiti, "You shouldn't have done that," he snapped. Nefertiti smiled, "What? I am your betrothed aren't I?" she asked in a sly voice. Orion shook his head, "You know all about us don't you?" he asked. Nefertiti smirked, "You think I am deaf, blind, and mute? I have seen it in your eyes, I hear in your tone, and I will speak to you about it. End your relationship with her that isn't professional or she will suffer the consequences for your actions," she snapped.
Orion grabbed Nefertiti, "IF you hurt her I will kill you with my own two hands," he said pushing Nefertiti against the wall.
"So, my suspensions are correct after all, you do have something more for her then professional business," the woman smirked. Orion did not want to break rules but since he saw no other choice, "I love her, ok, my Father was going to end the agreement between you and me, and have my sister marry your brother instead, but since she is dead that can't happen," he snapped.
Nefertiti smirked, "Then you should show me, how much you love me Orion, since Jennifer it seems to be that way for you," she said. Orion released his hold on Nefertiti for he still had her against the wall, "what do you want me to do Nefertiti, you known me since I was a child how can you make me do this?" he said slamming his fist against the wall.
Nefertiti, smiled, "You to be happy, Orion I don't like this arrangement either, don't you think I loved some one back home, because I do," she snapped. Orion laughed, "I know it, you were holding back on that kiss too," he said. Nefertiti nodded, "I pictured my former love as I kissed you, but he is gone now," she said moving from the wall.
Orion looked at her, "What happened to him?" he asked. Nefertiti placed her hand on the wall across from them, closed her eyes to stop the tear from falling, "I had him sent away, when he got word that I was to marry you, he, he," she spoke a tear broke free from her hazel green eyes.
Orion knew the answer, "He died," he spoke softly. Nefertiti nodded, "I am sorry I threatened Jennifer, but you know me, a Princess when in the presence of another." Orion nodded, "Just don't do that again. Jenny, she hates threats, she would badly injure who ever does it, I should know I have seen her do it a few times, lets just say they didn't walk for months," he spoke.
Nefertiti looked at her betrothed, "So, I should let her have her way with you?" she asked. Orion shook his head, "No, just don't push her, she controlled Obelisk back during the Armor War a month ago. I don't want to see her hurt you," he said pulling Nefertiti close to him.
Nefertiti confused by this, she knew Orion love or at least had feelings for Jenny so why was he being so nice to her. Orion gently kissed Nefertiti on the lips, her eyes closed as he did this, and they were both enjoying it. Jenny walked back in to the hall to ask Yamu a question when, she saw Orion pull Nefertiti in to a kiss, her eye filled with tears and left without a sound, neither knew that Jenny saw them kissing.
Jenny went to her sister's old room, and banged on the door, "KATE!" she yelled at it in a crying voice. Kate opened the door have dressed in her silk skirt and shirt part way open, Troy was on the bed groaning as she opened the door. "Jenny what's wrong?" she asked. Jenny was crying, "I saw, I saw Orion and Nefertiti," she cracked out in between sobs. Andy opened his door his shirt was off and hair a mess, he looked at his sister, "Kate, get Jenny to her room, now!" he barked.
Kate nodded and took her little sister to her room, "Come on," she said. Jenny threw herself on the bed and cried in to the nearest silk pillow she could find. Kate went back to her room and a moment later Andy her returned both fully dressed. Jenny held the pillow close to her body as her bother and sister took her in there arms.
Kate rocked her sister back and fourth to calm her, but it was not working. Andy looked at Kate, "What happened?" he asked. Kate shrugged her shoulders, "All she said was Orion and Nefertiti and then she went into this, I think she caught them doing something," she said pointing at her hysterical sister.
Matt entered the room, "What's going on, I just got rumor that Nefertiti knows that Jenny and Orion were to be married," he said looking at Jenny. Jenny lifted her head, "He kissed her, when I wasn't around, and Orion did it freely," Jenny cried out, "I was going back to get my cape that I left in the recovery room, when I saw them kissing in the hallway."
Matt and Andy quickly looked at each other, and headed out the door, "ANDY!" yelled Kate. Jenny sat up, she knew what they were going to do, and she moved quickly, "MATT! ANDY! Don't," she said quickly moving into the hallway. The two men stopped, "Jenny, we told him when you two first fell in love, "He breaks your heart, we are to break his neck," this is strike two for him, we taking him to the cleaners," said Matt in angry tone. Jenny ran to them, "No, he was probably," she took a breath, "has a reason for kissing her, may be Yamu knows something, they were outsider the door."
Andy and Matt agreed they would talk with Yamu before doing anything to Orion. Jenny asked they come with her ridding since she was right now needed her family near by to keep her sane. Kate decided to stay and promised to keep watch on Orion without his knowing about it. Troy hated the idea and whined like the little immature Wheeler he was, when he found out that Kate and he were not going to finish.
"Can't you just make something up?" he asked Kate after she gave him the update. "NO, look Troy you and I are going to have to wait, it not fair to Jenny, if you and I keep having sex every time she is out of site," she said snapping on a purple cape. Troy rolled his eyes, "You know it's not fair to me, either that you don't finish with each other," he said.
Kate glared at him, "When I get back you can have your fun, until then my dueling Mutt Puppy, get dressed," she threw his clothes at him. Troy sat up, "Why?" he asked putting on his shirt, "not like am going anywhere."
Kate raised an eyebrow, "I want Andy, Matt and You to go with Jenny, to make sure she doesn't hurt herself out there it better that way. The Obelisk armor may be gone but my sister has a lot she holding in from that battle, if she get to a point of blowing her top, I want you, my brother, and cousin to be there to help her calm down and some one to help her back on the horse."
Troy nodded, "And what will you, be doing?" he asked as Kate placed a hood on her head, "playing follow the Pharaoh, making sure he knows what is it like to be on my bad side," she snapped.
Troy laughed, "Watch dog," he said with a laugh. Kate nodded, "What ever you want to call it Monkey boy," she said leaving the room. "HEY I am no monkey, you are," he yelled as she shut the door. Kate popped her head back in, "Right Mutt Puppy," and she left. Troy growled at her, "Dam it Jenny, of all days, when I know I could get some time with your sister," he said as he pulled on his pants.
An hour later Jenny was sitting on a horse wearing her 21 century closes, figured it would be nice to be free and her dresses wouldn't let her ride as fast as she was going to go. Troy walked out dressed in his blue jeans and Andy and Matt in their Egyptian attire figured they would need it if they got in to any trouble.
They also had their normal clothes with them in bags so that way when they reached the open grounds they could change. Jenny smiled as she pulled her cloak over her shoulders to hide the strange attire, "this is going to be a good way to get Orion off my mind for a while," she said to Matt.
Matt nodded. "Jen, when you feel like you have had enough riding well bring you back here," he said hugging her. Jenny nodded, her head, she looked up at the palace towards the direction of the throne room where she could hear Orion giving Nefertiti the tour.
Jenny jumped on her horse and rode off with her brother, cousin, and sister's boyfriend as fast the horses could take them. Orion watched from the palace windows and saw Jenny ride off with out saying goodbye, he knew then why, he had sinking feeling she saw the kiss he gave Nefertiti.
Nefertiti stood next to him, "You know what must be done, Pharaoh, it's this or war," she said. Orion closed his eyes and turned to his mages as they were originally setting up the wedding ceremony, "Prepare the Wedding, Nefertiti and I must be wedded before Jenny returns, tonight," he ordered.
"What about her sister? It's not like we can avoid her gaze," asked Nefertiti, "she will try to stop you." "No, Kate understands, I made sure that Jenny gave her orders to stay out of my way today," he said. Kate stood in the shadows, "Orion, how could you," she whispered, "How could you do this to Jenny after everything she went through for you, what she decided to do for you?"
Jenny was on the horse, a tear ran down her face, she knew deep down when she got back to the palace she and Orion would be through, and destiny would have its way with them, that they were not meant to be in this time and place.
