Hornviper2: I would like to thank Maliks Yami for reviewing this story once again and for being the only one who did. And Maliks Yami if you are reading this and you haven't read the review I send you then I would like to say that despite my screen name, I too am a girl, and I too only have one story, so don't think you are the only one with a boyish screen name cause there are about 40 or 50, that is what my cousin told me there may be more or there might be less, because he is a idiot that didn't go to summer school and will most likely have to repeat the sixth grade. Yes, I am going into the 7th grade, but I am 13.

Bakura: You're 13! I thought you were 15 or 16!

Hornviper2: True I do look 15 or 16, I'm 5ft 4in, but then again my brothers are all over 6ft.

Marik & Bakura: DAMN!

Hornviper2: I know but we really need to get on with this story.

Bakura: Hornviper2 does not own Yu-Gi-Oh or Beyblade, but she wishes that she did.

Hornviper2: You're being abnormally cooperative. What's up?

Bakura: Nothing!

Hornviper2: Ooookkaay! On with the story!

"Hey Akeno, Bakura!" Akeno and Bakura turned around to see Marik sprinting past the villagers with Keni and Ichi behind him. "Akeno! We've been looking… allover for you! You have to… get home now, our Aunt… Vanessa is here and she wants to… talk to you and Meru about something!" Ichi said as she caught he tried to catch her breath. Akeno and her sisters all hated their aunt Vanessa and their cousin Taylor, whom she always brought with her wherever she went.

They hated them, because their aunt and their cousin lived in a very rich community and Akeno and her sisters did not. Every time their aunt Vanessa and their cousin Taylor came over they would make very rude comments about how poor they were. And she would always try to steal the Dragon's Eye because not only were they rude they were also greedy. They knew that the Dragon's Eye was worth a ton, not only because it was it was a very old family air loom but also because it was a gift from one of the former Pharaohs making it almost priceless.

The only time Vanessa and Taylor came over was when they had a plan to steal or to persuade their mother to give them the jewel. This was probably the reason they were here. Now that their mother was dead there was no one left in their house that had a job. And without a job their was no one to make money for food or clothing. Their aunt was probably here to offer to sell the jewel for them so they would have money and would keep the money for herself.

"Well, let's go see what she wants!" Akeno said bitterly. They all headed to her house where they found two well kept white horses standing in front of the house and the front door wide open. /Oh, great I bet they are going through our stuff already. / Akeno thought to herself. She stopped for a moment and turned around as she thought of something. "Hey Ichi, where's Meru?" They all stopped walking as they realized that they had forgotten to go get Meru. "Shoot!" Marik screeched. "We forgot Meru!" Akeno sighed. "Keni, Marik you two go look for Meru. Ichi, Bakura you come with me." Keni and Marik looked at each other for a moment, and then answered. "Yes ma'am!" they answered in unison and saluted as they ran through the city to try and find Meru.

Ichi gave Akeno a questioning look. "Why didn't you send me and Bakura too?" Akeno turned away and started towards the house again. "Because I need someone smart with me and you are one of the smartest people that I know." This was true if you were to live in the time and the place that Akeno lives in right now then you would almost always find Ichi sitting near the river reading a scroll or a book. "And I don't know what Vanessa and Taylor will do and if they try anything then I know Bakura will protect me." Bakura blushed slightly.

Akeno walked into the house and into the living room where their aunt Vanessa was trying to open a locked chest in which Ichi kept all of her books and scrolls. And Taylor was looking through all of the drawers in the house. "Excuse me?" Akeno exclaimed which made Vanessa and Taylor jump and whirl around. "Oh, hellos Akeno how are you? My! Aren't you getting to be a beautiful young lady, But not as beautiful as me. And Bakura! Aren't you just a handsome young man now, but you aren't as handsome as my Tay-Tay!" she said as she went over and pinched Taylor's cheeks. All three of them gagged.

Taylor was chubby, his eyes were small and blue, his fingers were like sausages, he waddled when he walked, and his blond hair was always slicked back so you could see al of the acne on his forehead. And their aunt Vanessa was fat she always wore a dress that was too small for her, her blond hair was always in a weird hairdo that made her look like she had a bee-hive on her head, her eyes were like Taylor's, and her nails were a dark purple, and she wore sea green eye-shadow.

"Why are you here?" Akeno questioned

"Do I need a reason to visit my nieces?"

"Yes, you usually do."

"Well, I know times mush be hard now with you're mother dead now. And I was wondering if you would like for me to sell the Dragon's Eye for you so you will have some money for food and clothing. What do you say?"

"No, and even if I could I wouldn't!"

"What do you mean IF you could?"

Akeno told them what Matthias had told them and what Bakura had found. And when she had finished the story you could see the greedy look in her eyes. Then the door burst open. "AKENO!"

Hornviper2: I'm ending this here, sorry I'll update soon. I promise!

Bakura/Yawns/ I'm hungry. Got any raw meat?

Hornviper2/shudders/ Dude! That is just plain gross!

Bakura: Hey, it's a way of life! Please R&R!

Hornviper2: yes, please!
