((Umm.. sorry for the wait. I wasn't in the mood, but now I am. I'm trying to finish this story so I can work on the sequel. (Which I've already started.) And sorry, to Emma mainly, about the romance in this chapter. Anyways, enjoy reading!))
((DISCLAIMER: I do not own Phantom of the Opera. Again. I will never own it. Shame though.))
"Attention Duelists and Deadbeats. The formal ball-o-mo-bob will be held tonight in 2 hours in the ballroom. Good day." Kaiba's voice came from the above. Me and Savay pulled ourselves apart.
"Oh, gosh, I have to get ready!" Savay said. She looked rather flustered.
"Well, do you want to go to this ball thing with me?" I asked. Savay looked at me with those brown-purple flecked eyes.
"Of course, Bakura. Who else?" Savay gave me a completely innocent look. "Now…I have to get ready…" She walked off.
"See ya…" I had to get ready now. Of course, I had only brought my clothes that I was wearing; my striped tee and some blue jeans. Hmmm… maybe I could…?
I ran to the laundry room and ran over to a cubby-hole that was labeled Ryo Bakura. I stuck my hand into it.
"Yus!" A school uniform was in it; a white shirt, blue collared jacket, and blue pants. Not exactly the most formal outfit, but it was ok.
"Ok… now to change…" I murmured to myself. I stripped off my shirt, and then my pants. I stuffed a shirt over my bare chest, and then placed the pants on.
"Damn jacket…" I tried to button up the jacket. Why couldn't be a zipper? Anyways… I had to find a brush. I ran into Kaiba's room, where he was reading Steven King's Green Mile on his bed. Next to him was Alyssa, who was brushing her hair.
"Rich Boy, you have a brush I can borrow?" I asked sweetly.
"Yes, but you can't use it." Kaiba's eyes narrowed at me.
"Can I use hers?" I looked at Alyssa, whose eyes also narrowed at me most likely from the walk-in incident.
"No…" She said.
"Fine." I glared at them. "I'll go ask Joey." I ran to his room.
"Wheeler! Do you brush I can borrow?" I asked him dramatically.
"No… all I have is a comb." He shrugged.
"Screw you." I said.
"I have one!" Piped up the midget.
"Me too!" Tristan squealed.
"I'll take yours, Taylor." I took his and ran.
"Hey bring it back, when you're done!" He shouted after me.
"Yeah right, sucker!" I shouted back. I cackled and ran to our—me and Savay's—room. First I knocked, to make sure Savay wasn't in there changing or anything. (Not like I would care or anything. Just what Savay would think.)
"Savay, can I come in now?" I continued banging on the door.
"Uh, yeah sure… just a second. I'll continue to prepare in the bathroom." I heard the noises of moving things. "Come in now!"
I opened the door, and ran over to the mirror and brushed my hair. I brushed and brushed and brushed until my hair was as soft as rabbit fur.
"Done!" I said, proud of myself. "Savay, you done?" I shouted into the bathroom.
"Uh… almost…" Her voice sounded shaky. Was she nervous?
"Ok. I'll be in Marik's room. It's room 101."
"Ok…" I walked down to Marik's room and knocked.
"Hello, who is it?" Marik said in a sing-song voice.
"Your mom." I said sarcastically.
"Hello Bakura. Come in." He said. I opened the door and saw sitting in a chair next to Marik. She had a maniacal smile on her pale face. She was paler Ryo! She had short black hair, with a single red streak in it. Her red eyes stood out on her pale skin. She appeared to be a little younger than Marik, maybe 15. She had on a sweatshirt with some strange red writing on it and baggy camo jeans.
"This is Grim. Grim, this is Bakura." She just stared at me. "Anyways, what did you come to my room for?" Marik sat in a chair.
((Disclaimer: Grim is not mine, she is Halo of Chao's.))
"I dunno. Just to hang." I shrugged. "To chill. Whatever."
Marik sighed. "You didn't think I might try and get ready for the ball?" Marik pushed me out the door. "Go away. You scare me."
"Fine." I murmured. "I'll take a walk."
((Savay's PoV))
"Gosh… which ones?" Savay murmured, holding up two different pairs of earrings. Normally she wouldn't care about this sort of thing, but what if Bakura did?
Of course he won't. He isn't that sort of person. Savay thought to her self. But she had taken her time choosing out a dress and accessories.
"Excuse me? Savay?" A voice said.
"Yes? Who is it?" Savay said from the bathroom.
"It's Téa . Can I come in?" She asked kindly.
"Sure." Savay ran out of the bathroom. She hadn't really changed or anything yet, just had made the decisions.
"Oh, come in." Savay showed Téa into her room. Savay was surprised that Téa had come to her room. They hadn't really talked or anything.
"No offence… but why did you come to my room?" Savay asked, as polite as she could.
"Oh…well just something to do. I wanted to become your friend." Téa said, smiling.
((FRIENDSHIP! I'm not Téa bashing or anything. I just need a good reason for her to meet Savay.))
"Oh. Thank you." Savay gave a small bow. "I'm changing right now, but I can talk from the bathroom."
"Oh! Can I help with your makeup and stuff?" Téa asked.
"Sure." Savay smiled. "Lemme just change…" Savay ran into the bathroom.
((Back to Bakura's PoV…))
—One and a half hours later…—
"Ok. I guess I'll meet Savay in the ballroom then." I had knocked on our door for awhile, but there had been no answer.
I walked down to the ballroom and walked in the grand entrance. Music was playing, and people in gowns and tuxes were dancing.
Then I saw her. Savay. She was wearing a black gown, rather like Christine's from Phantom of the Opera in the Graveyard scene, except a little less skimpy on the top.
((Christine's outfits are insanely skimpy in the top. -.-))
Her hair was wavy, and put into a fancy low ponytail. She was wearing a little bit of black eye-shadow and some red blush. She had in some dangling gold earrings with small red roses at the end of them. She was staring off into space, with no expression on her face.
"Savay!" I ran up to her. "You look… beautiful." She smiled.
"You look nice too." Savay said.
"Oh, this? Just a school uniform. Your dress… it reminds me of Christine's outfit from Phantom of the Opera. In the graveyard." I blushed; did I talk too much?
"Oh, yeah. That's why I like it." Savay beamed at the compliment.
"Oh, speak of the devil!" The Phantom of the Opera theme came on. "Wanna dance?" I asked her, offering her my hand.
"Mm." Savay nodded, and took my hand. I held her close to me and we started dancing to the music.
"In sleep he sang to me. In dreams he came." Savay sang quietly in my shoulder. "The Phantom of the Opera is there… inside my mind." Savay and me danced across the ballroom. I saw different couples in the ballroom. Kaiba and Alyssa, Duke and Amme, Atina and Joey, Marik and Grim, Téa and Yami, and Tristan and Serenity.
Savay pressed her head against my shoulder as Christine sang her chords. The song ended. Familiar piano music started.
"I'll be right back." I squeezed her shoulder. "Gotta take a pee." I ran off to the bathroom.
((Savay's PoV))
Think of Me. Savay's favorite song. And now it started playing. Savay noticed the empty karaoke stage, and jumped on up.
"Think of me. Think of me fondly when we've said goodbye." Savay sang. A crowd appeared around Savay's stage, consisting of Alyssa, (to laugh at her if she screwed up) Kaiba, (since Alyssa was there) Téa, Yami, a blonde girl named Misty, Amme, Duke, Atina, Joey, Tristan, Marik and Grim (Because she hadn't seen Savay in awhile).
"Stop and think of meeee!" Savay sang.
((Blue haired dude's PoV))
"Can it be? Can it me Savay?" A strange blue-haired teen, about Savay's age, whispered, not knowing he was singing along to the words.
"Long ago, it seemed so long ago, how young and innocent we were! She may not remember me, but I remember her…" He sang, rushing over to Savay's stage.
((Back to Savay's PoV))
"Stop and think of…" Savay started to sing the chords, but was cut off by the blue-haired guy. He ran up onto the stage, and kissed her.
Savay was rather surprised at this. At first she didn't recognize his face, but then she did.
Avion? She thought, surprised. But… how? He continued to kiss her.
((Back to Bakura's PoV))
I returned from the loo (as Ryo called it) and ran over to Savay's Stage. (I had heard her voice singing)
"Savay, I-" I stopped. Some blue-haired guy was kissing Savay, and by the way her eyes were open, I could tell she wasn't enjoying it, nor did she cause it. I walked up to him, and pulled him off her.
"Who the hell are you!" I was flaming angry. He showed no notice of me.
"Savay! Savay! Is that…?" Amme and Atina ran over. Grim smirked.
"Avion? Is that you?" Savay asked. He nodded and smiled. "Oh… Avion!" Savay threw her arms around him. "My best-friend…" Avion smiled even more.
"Avion, nice to see you, mate!" Amme said, sticking her hand out for Avion. He took it, and shook it. Then he shook Atina's hand and shook it.
"Nice to see you too!" He beamed. Then he turned around and saw me. "Oh… and who is this?"
"Oh, that's Bakura." Savay smiled. A smiled at this Avion guy and put my arm around Savay's waist. "My boyfriend."
Avion just blinked for awhile. "Oh… I see…" He looked off into space. "I'm Avion, as you've heard." He blushed. "Sorry about that kiss. I've missed her terribly." I noticed he had warm blue eyes also, and a small scar on his right eye. (His right, not mine.)
"Mmm." Was all I said. This guy was getting on my nerves.
"Ah, Savay, I see you just happen to be here too. What a pleasant surprise." Grim smiled insanely, going up to Savay. She was just wearing the same outfit as before. "Nice dress." She added sarcastically.
"Oh, thank you Grim. I got it from the Duchess of Bitches." Savay flatten it out. She looked at Marik, who appeared to be drunk. "Your date?"
"Yeah. He's ok." Grim said. Savay raised an eyebrow.
"You don't seem like the person to take a date."
"Ah, well, he asked." Grim shrugged. All the sudden… ((This is for you, Halo of Chaos.)) The Numa Numa Song came on. ((Disclaimer: I am not a band member of O-Zone, and I do not own the Numa Numa Song.)) And Kaiba and Marik had the stage.
"Go Kaiba!" Alyssa shouted.
"W00t." Grim said unenthusiastically. Kaiba sang to the foreign words, and both danced.
"Mia Hee! Mia Hoo! Mia Hah! Mia Ha ha!" Kaiba sang. Marik danced, his moves very sloppy.
"YOUR MOM GOES TO COLLAGE!" Tristan shouted. Everyone sweat-dropped.
"That's a cool song!" Avion smiled. I stared at him. Who the hell was he?
((Le Gasp! Who the heel is this Avion? (I know, but you fools don't
3) Why is
Yugi still short? Have I created a love triangle?
