NS: Yea for another random chapter! :looks around: ok I've got nothing else to say, so.. Here's chapter 11!!!!!!!
Immortal Death: chapter 11
Rei then lived with Bakura in his house and did not question how he managed to get it. It was two stories high, and made in the traditional manner, out of mud, straw, and etc. It contained four bedrooms, a moderate sized living room and a average kitchen. Bakura became nocturnal to adhere to his tomb robbing schedule. So Rei spent the daylight hours trying to reassemble her life. Without a Master she felt like she had no purpose. She cleaned constantly with lack of anything else to do, at least the house was clean. ( Maybe even too clean ;)
She felt bad that she was hiding her injury on her arm from Bakura, she never had any reason to lie or hide anything from him. To take her mind off of these problems she decided to go to the market, they were low on food anyway. She made her way through the crowd, though nervous that her previous Master would see her, she sighed and scolded herself, she had to stop referring to that...... beast like that, he didn't deserve that title. It was unusually crowded , must be a sale going on or something, or maybe the "great" pharaoh was passing through. Then, while lost in her thoughts, she crashed straight into someone and they both jolted backward, Rei being so light fell to the ground. A familiar voice spoke to her, " Need some help?" She looked up, there was Ishtar smirking down at her. " Yet again, no." she replied and got up. " Long time no see." Ishtar's smirk grew. She then noticed his face harbored a faded bruise, just noticeable, but didn't ask. He also looked much more intimidating, his eyes had become much darker and narrower. He towered over her, she had always been short for her age, but actually was being to grow more recently. "What have you been up to since I saw you last?", he asked. " Not much, just escaped from my " Master" , you know the usual." she said sarcastically. Ishtar's eyes widened slightly, although he spoke calmly," Really? That's.... good to hear." / And I am still under the tyranny of my father./ he thought. / She cannot find out, I do not want her to worry, she needs to focus on looking after her brother/ " And you?", she asked. " Nothing really, just the usual chores and whatnot."( Don't ask how he knows that she's with her brother or that he's even alive, good guess I suppose) " How exciting." she said sarcastically, again.( Yea, sarcasm, shutting up now) "Do you want to come with me to my, well Bakura's house. That way you know where it is and you can visit." "Sure, why not."he said. /I have time to spare before I must return./ Rei smacked herself in the head, " I almost forgot why I came here. I need to pick up a few items, do you mind?" " No, that's fine." So she finished shopping and headed back, leading Ishtar through the intricate maze of streets and alleys. She stopped in front of the house, " This is it!" "Hm, not bad.", he commented. Rei walked in and began to put away the food, goods, and whatnot. " Just have a seat wherever you like, Bakura's sleeping at the moment.", she called from the kitchen. Ishtar sat on the couch, he could tell it was finely made,... and obviously stolen. Whatever floats your boat. Rei finished and came into the living room, " You know if you ever need a place to stay, our door is always open. Actually, come to think of it, Bakura never locks it.", she smiled. " Thanks, I appreciate it." A few moments of awkward silence passed. " So............, what do you wanna' do?", she asked him. " I dunno, wanna go to the Nile, I'm sure we'll find some way to occupy our time there." Rei shrugged, " ok." So off to the great river they went. They arrived at a more remote location and spied an olive tree, growing near the water's edge. The tree leaned over the water, casting a shadow over the normally sapphire blue color of it, changing it to a deep cerulean. There were plump olives in the far reaches of the tree's limbs, shining like precious black obsidian. Ishtar walked closer to it, and craned his neck to better see, he began to shimmy up the lean trunk, and reached the top. He gathered the olives and tossed them down to Rei, who caught them in a small bag she had happened to be carrying. When he was satisfied with the 'harvest', he climbed down. The two sat under the shade of the tree, silently munching on olives and watching fishing and other varieties of ships pass, slowly and calmly, leaving a gentle wake. A light breeze passed over them, taming the heat of the day, and at that moment, nothing could have been better.
