Immortal Death: chapter 6
Rei and Bakura's treatment went on like it had since day one, beatings and such, unseen by the public eye, though this situation was no uncommon in this time. Until Rei turned Nine, Master took her to the marketplace( I know what you're thinking) to shop( why he went, I dunno, maybe so she didn't mess up) Rei was very hungry, Master had not feed her in days, so as they passed a fruit stand, she quickly snatched, with speed that surprised her. Unfortunately, not quick enough, Master whipped around, as if he knew what she was going to do, and knocked her to the ground. He proceeded to kick, punch, and throw sand and rocks at her, calling her a useless wench and other obscenities. A crowd noticed this and gathered around, and just watched, as if their eyes were blind to her pain, their ears deaf to her screams. Then, a cloaked figure stepped through the ring of people, and yelled, " Stop this immediately!" Master turned to face the figure, " Who do think you are!? I own this piece of shit you see sniveling on the ground!" The figure replied, venom in their voice, " Do you know whom you speak to so harshly? I am high priestess to the Pharaoh!" She then pulled back the hood of her cloak, revealing herself. She had chestnut hair and sapphire blue eyes. Master scoffed slightly, but did not want to unveil her wrath, for she was known for her hot temper. Not to mention her connection to the Gods. " Cease this cruel treatment or pay the price." " She deserved it, she stole from that fruit stand not four feet from you!" The Priestess scoffed, " And why could that be, maybe she was hungry and by the looks of her it was because you haven't been feeding her." A unified inhale could almost be heard from the crowd. " Now get out of my sight before I kill you!" Master reluctantly began to walk away but then turned halfway to look at Rei, still in the dirt, " Be back by sunset." then he proceeded home. The Priestess walked over but before helping Rei up looked at the crowd and yelled," What are you all staring at! Be gone!" With that they all scurried off. " Why did you help me? You are a high Priestess and I am only a slave." " Because, no one should suffer like that." " I thank you, I am in debt to you." " Forget about it, so kid you got a name?" The Priestess questioned. " Rei." " I am Maria. Take care of yourself, I must leave now." With that Maria left to return to her priestly duties. Rei looked around, hmm, no chores and back by sundown, Ra has not reached his highest point yet, so I guess I'll wander. She thought. Then she noticed Master had failed to retrieve the stolen fruit, so she walked off happily ganashing on the apple( or munching, whichever you prefer) on the fruit.
That evening Rei returned to Master's to find.....
The house was torn apart and there was no sign of Master, but then she entered the living area to see Bakura in a pool of his own blood on the floor. She Rushed over to him, " Bakura, This is all my fault, I'm so sorry, please forgive me..." she almost whispered. Bakura groaned and managed to choke out, " It was inevitable, don't blame yourself." Rei grabbed some bandages and cloth. He had multiple gash wounds. She gently sopped up the blood, though he winced now and then, and wrapped him up. Then she helped him to his cot, " Rest well Bakura." She lest the bedroom and began to clean up all the broken items and mess Master had made.
NS: Yay another chapter bites the dust,........ I should hope not. Well, like always, review!
