Dreaming Sensation
Chapter Four: The Field Trip
Spoiler! In Aku's point of view, it may seem a bit weird. Really she's just remembering her dream while explaining how she feels about it. It could be confusing but once you get the idea, you won't get confused. It really just is her remembering her dream while she is telling you how she feels about it. I don't own Yugioh.
"FEMI!" Yugi hollered in apprehension.
"YUGI!" She grabbed a towel and covered herself.
Yugi saw her naked bodyand turned around immediately. He blushed crimson red. "I'M-I-I'M SORRY!" Yugi yelled with as much sincerity he could express.
Femi forgave him. "Its okay, but please get out," she giggled."You make menervous."
Yugi blushed even more andinseconds, his face was filled with red and pinkish colors. Hequickly turned the knob hoping to get out soon, but he couldn't open the door. The key inside of the knob couldn't activate the button to release the lock. He glared him devastation.
Femi watched Yugi and wondered why he was still inside. She held her towel wrapped around herself tightly."What's wrong Yugi?"
Yugi glupped. "We're locked inside..."
"We're both trapped inside of the bathroom. No way!" Femi said sarcastically. "This is sooo bad…"
"Ugh… AKU! AKU!" Yugi paid no heed to her lack of humor and shouted out for Aku, hoping she'll come soon to free them out of such a bizarre situation. "AKU!"
Femi stared and then turned around to apply cherry scented lotion on herself. She rubbed it gently on her already smooth and soft skin. "Don't worry Yugi. Aku's going to get us. So just relax and… don't waste you energy 'kay?"
He stared at the door, tongue-tied. He dared not to turn around and told himself that seeing her naked once is already hard to handle. He leanned his head against the door and stared down to its well crafted layer with boredom. Meanwhile, Aku was downstairs cooking. Although there were servants around the house, she perfers to be independent. Trying to teach herself responsibilty despite the emotion of laziness consuming her. As she cooked, loud noises of raucous laughter bounced off walls and ran thoughout the gigantic mansion. It was Femi's and Aku's father, having a great time with his friends. Over the less, they were drinking again. They can't do anything else besides drink and talk about women. The chatter and laughter was so loud that it caused Yugi's called for help to be unvoiced.
"Ugh…" Aku said in disgust. "Is that all they can do. Maybe someday… if I ever have the courage to stand up on my two feet, I can finally teach my father about doing something productive. Someday… I'm going to end up in the ruins. Begging for money on the dark streets where hope and help can be solemn and rarely found. I'll collaspe on my knees again, with no help, no hand reaching out for me. I'll be… alone. I wish my mother was here..." She stopped her cooking utensils and reflected.
Aku's Point of View
/Flashback/
I can't quite remember her but every single night… I dream of a young girl and her mother.
"Come here!" A young woman, about in her twenties, spreaded her arms out to the girl and a gentle smile began to spread on her face. She had black long hair that fell to the bottom of her waist. She unusually wore many jewels and she wore the same Millennium Circlet above her head. Her eyes were soft and compassionate, always offering her love with her simple assets.
I admired her from afar as I watched the scene with interest. I didn't recognize who were the two indiviuals.
"Mommmy! I brought you flower!" She was about six years old. Her hair was short and jet black that matched her mother's. She even had the same eyes as her's too. Crystal red-violet orbs. The little girl pushed the flower she collected into her mother's arms. Her mother's eyes sparkled and grinned. She was decorous to see the special type of flower her daugther had given her and she didn't even brother to ask her where she had gotten it because she knew her daughter will get into talking about her adventures up until the sun rises up the next morning. She collected a rare flower called Grand Prix Rose, a red beautiful rose.
"This is an absolutely beautiful flower! I'll put it beside my bed always so I'll always remember you!"
The girl returned with a smile of approval as her mother offered her to hop on her back. A sad look was hanging on her mother's face and she, the daugther, noticed it.
"Is there something wrong, mommy?"
She smiled at the voice of her daughter's. "No… but I want you to remember. If anything goes wrong, don't let your eyes mislead you to the wrong pathway and if anything goes wrong, I want you to remember to not give up no matter what even if the odds are against you. Trust your instinct and never lose hope because someday, you'll be facing not only the obvious evil, but also terrible secrets and treason that you've never imagined. They'll push you down like a growing wave trying to crumble you to pieces and that's when you understand that you can't get up until there is somebody who'll lend you a hand. Your father and I are going to be married and if you ever want to get married or fall in love, make sure you fall in love with someone who believes in true love. Appearances can be deceiving so don't offer your heart to anyone who isn't good enough for you."
The girl seem to not understand what her mother was saying so she tossed off valueable advice given to her.
"I want to marry someone who is brave like daddy!" She childishly said.
Her mother laughed a little and her smile faded among her sun-kissed face. "I love you very much!" She lowered her down to the ground and bumped heads with her.
They returned home and met with the daughter's possibly the father.
The dream didn't seem like a dream at all. It seem like a premonition, a sign. A unusual fight started among the father and the mother. I couldn't hear what it was. It seem distant and I felt like I was in the same position as the girl. Confused.
The girl held the flower she had just picked out in her hand because her mother had told her to hold it for her. Once they've finished their quarrel and soon, the father passes by his daughter's presence.
"Father! Look I have a flower!"
He kept his move forward and didn't even stop to give any of his precious attention to her. She blankly and confusedly gazed into the somber and dim abyss attached with a painful and devilish occurence. The black haired girl went out to search for her mother for comfort, but she was no where to be found.
A series of other memories past by in a quick motion, like a remote using the past forward option on a movie.
After that fight, the girl continued her adventure to find her mom. Her little mind thought it was just a simple game of hide-in-seek but the end of it all took place in her parent's room that day. The little girl preceded into the room, still wanting to give her wonderful gift to her mother who appeared to want it only instead.
"Mommy? Mommy?" She sweetly said as she openned the door. She gasped in fear and terror of the site. From the rims of the ceiling were leaking in drops of blood. Blood was splatted carelessy and without mercy. From all of the other objects in the room, the bed stood out the most. Every step the girl made took up all her energy. Her energy was drained by anxiety and horror. Her hands quivered as she drew closer to the bed. The pillows were soaked in crimson and blood finger prints were stamped on the layers of sheets laying on the bed. Under it all laid a body. The girl lifted the covers and saw her own mother's eyes. They were dilated as if she had saw something horrifying, seconds before she died away.
Distant sounds of footsteps rumbled and grew louder. The girl went for the small window, big enough for her body, but then soon realized she still had her flower. She ran to a buttery block that sat next to the bed. It was cubed shaped figure used as a desk or for placing uncessary belongings upon on. She took one last look at her mother and placed her Grand Prix Rose beside her like her mother had promised. Instantly after that, she took something, covered her mother, and hid under the bed, waiting for what happen next and the right opportunity to escape to the window.
Guards came in and so did the father.
I realized I was in the past time of Egypt when I finally saw a good look at the father.
"Get her out of the bed," the father commanded. "We need to get rid of her immediately."
The girl gasped again. How could he do this to his own wife? She began to think it was her own father's fault for the death of her innocent mother. Once the everyone in the room were dismissed, the girl flew into the window and out of the room.
/End of Flashback/
End of Aku's Point of View
Femi and Yugi were still in the bathroom. Although they were bored, they were both amused that they were standing in the same room. "Ugh…" Yugi groanned. By every minute, he grew more weary than before. "Where is she..."
Femi glanced at him and an idea shot her head. "So Yugi. Have you ever kissed a girl before?" She eagerly asked.
He raised his face to her who was smiling seductively. He stood speechless. "Why are you asking?"
"Just answer the question," Femi demanded as she spoke plainly.
"Okay… um... no... I don't have any crushes, but-" In an instant his words consequently led to an conclusion. Femi gripped onto his jacket, where Yugi's elbows were and placed her lips onto his into a smooth sign of soothing emotion. Yugi stared at her with speechless eyes eyeing her and feel of her kiss mixed with tender, love, and sentiment. Femi moved closer to him and applied more pressure bringing him to slam against the door.
"F-e-m-i-," Yugi said irritated and trying to communicate.
Aku eyes were occupated her meditation when she noticed that silence roamed thoughout the upper level of the spacious mansion. She decided to climb her way up stairs. She heard noises inside of a near bathroom door. She placed her eatr against the it and heard sounds. Sounds like a couple kissing? Aku lowered her eyes to the knob and figured it was hanging out of place, meaning its broken. She open the door, while apprehension pop up in her mind, and both Femi and Yugi, Yugi first, onto the hard, cherry colored floor. Femi laid over Yugi, crushing him a bit, swirls spinning in her eyes from the impact of the fall. Aku dazed before them.
"Femi…" Yugi said irritated and dazed equally while her chest flattened his face. "I… can't breathe…"
Femi got off quickly and stared at Yugi. Both of them flushed in red, rapidly spreading all over the face. Aku left them to their business. "I didn't see anything," she claimed.
"So Yugi, going to stay tonight. We do have an extra room for guests." Femi said ignoring Aku's comment.
Yugi smiled nervously. "Thanks but I can't, you see, I really need to get home before my grandpa gets worried about me." He deliberated and barely thought about his grandpa.
Femi sighed. "Okay I understand… see you at school tomorrow."
"See you too." Yugi couldn't wait to get home. He was overwhelmed by his amazing day.
The Following Morning
Yugi sat in his desk, sulking a bit, waiting patiently for class to start. Joey spotted him from afar and approached him.
"Hey Yuge! You seem a bit tired there. Didn't get enough sleep?"
Yugi raised his head. "No… don't worry about me." Yugi was thinking about the weird incident yesterday. The kiss from Femi. He just couldn't get it out of his mind. Yami sensed his emotion and quickly talked to him about it.
"Yugi. Are you okay?."
Yugi heard the voice and responded. He sounded tired. "I'm fine! Can't I get any peace around here. Sheesh, I'm just thinking about something." He stared in the midst of none existed dreams. He felt Femi's breath flow through his face as if she was standing right in front of him right now.
"I apoligized. I'm just worried." The pharoah smiled at him and vanished away immediately. The look was significant and Yugi understood it. He quickly turned to Joey's direction, but almost too much to plant a kiss on Joey's lips!
"AH! YUGI!" Joey stepped back immediately. His eyes widen for the absurb situation they almost entered into.
"JOEY!"
"SILENCE!" A colorful figure entered the room. She wore a floral type of dress thatstopped at thebottom of her knees. She held some papers in her left arm and her right hand laid upon the teacher's wooden desk. "I have some good news students. Wednesday, we are going to go have a field trip to HAWAII!"
Everyone screamed in excitement and joy. Students chattered all over, thinking about Hawaii. Not only it's a popular tourist attraction, but it is also romantic. The raucous talking all discontinued when the teacher slammed a ruler against her desk. "SILENCE! Now I want you to get these papers signed, fill it with completely, turn it in tomorrow, and come with your baggages. You follow!"
"Yes teacher. Okay. Yeah. Great. What are we doing?" Random responses responded in unison. The teacher rolled her eyes and dismissed the class. Everyone left to their periods.
Yugi got up from his seat and went out for the door to his destination. The halls were once again loud as usual. Yugi went on to his walking until a figure walked alongside of him.
"Hey Yugi!" Her voice was soft and somewhat joyful. He turned to look at the mysterious person and it came to be Aku! Her lips curved upward and cheeks indented into dimples.
She waited for a response as a midst of silence accompained between the two. She furrowed her eyebrows and spoke again, hoping something will come out of that mouth of his.
"Can you believe that we're going to Hawaii? I can't wait! I've never been there before!" Her eyes started to twinkle as she dreamed of the sights and thought upon the fun she might encounter. From that,
Yugi finally snapped out of a daze. "Yea me too! I've never been there before either. I'm gonna get that paper signed once I open the door to the game shop!" Yugi replied.
"Great! See you in class!" Aku disappears.
"Yugi. Is something wrong with you?" Yami's voice entered Yugi's head again.
"Ugh," Yugi said reluctantly.
"I know what I saw. You're dazing again. Are you thinking of that kiss again?"
Yugi snapped out of his lazy mode and burned into a flame. "HEY! YOUR NOT SUPPOSE TO READ MY THOUGHTS!"
"Remember Yugi. We share bodies," Yami reminded.
Ugh! I wish he got his own! Why did it have to be mine?
"I heard that."
"Be quiet!"
Yami frowned. "Yugi. I know you may be getting sick of me being here, but please reconsider it. I need you and without your generosity, I would never be here today. After I finally get my own body, I will greatly reward you with all I have."
"No actually its okay. I'm just irritated about the kiss yesterday. I seem to can't get it out of my mind."
"Yugi, it's a natural thing for a man to be thinking of those things."
Yugi unusually brust into a flame of anger again. "What do you mean? You've never kissed a girl before!" Yugi pointed out evily.
Yami flushed into embarrassment. He's right, but I can't recollect anything of my past life.
"I heard that."
"I don't care Yugi."
Yugi laughed. "No love life?"
"Ugh." Yami pouted and vanished away from Yugi's mind. Yugi smiled happily as he skipped his way to a classroom.
Night Falls
School seem fast today as Yugi observed the ceiling and then to the skylight built in his room. Bright shining stars shined in the consuming darkness the stretched to almost eternity. He laid on his back and moved his hands on his puzzle as his fingers felt the engraved writings and details on the it. He couldn't wait to go to Hawaii, but a weird feeling took over him. A feeling of apprehension.
Yami appeared sitting on Yugi's desk chair. "Is something brothering you again?"
Yugi looked back at him. "Yeah. I guess I'm just feeling something bad is going to happen tomorrow. I don't know why though."
"Go get some sleep Yugi. We'll find out soon enough."
Wednesday: On the Airplane (6:30)
"Hey Yugi! Sit next to me!" A young girl's voice called over to the small sized boy who was hustling his way to the girl, Tea. Yes, Tea was calling over to him hoping that he'll sit next to her. Hoping that he'll change to Yami! Sometimes, Yugi felt like he was being used. He faced his head up and tried seaching through the rows and columns, seeing if the brunette was anywhere near. Finally, he finds her. Sitting in a two seated row, alone, but soon to be him and her. Tea helped him place his baggages inside of the baggage box (above them). Then Yugi seated himself to rest against the comfortable seats.
"So Yugi… you think we're going to have fun today!" Her face glowed brightly. He knew she was excited.
"Yea… but I have this weird feeling that something is going to go wrong. Its like… my puzzle has given me a premonition!"
She gave him a weird stare, but not defining that he's weird, in fact almost everything they do with Yugi is always weird so you can't called that something extraordinary anymore. Meanwhile with Joey and Tristan…
"TRISTAN! I WANNA TO SIT NEXT TO THE WINDOW!" Joey yelled childishly. He grabbed Tristan's arm instantly who was heading his way to the seat next to the window, ignoring Joey's calls.
"I WANT TO SIT HERE DOOFUS!" Tristan sneered.
"WH-WHAT! WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME! I WANNA SIT HERE!"
"NO I DO!"
"WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT YOU DESERVE IT MORE THAN I DO?" Joey asked consciously. Their eyes met and a spark of electricity sparked between the two. They were having a manly staring contest.
"BECAUSE… BECAUSE I-I'M TALLER THAN YOU!" Tristan claimed.
A long pause undergo as Tristan awaited Joey to answer. Finally, the blond has spoken.
"NO YOUR NOT!"
It wasn't before long they became the center of attention. The two guys were comparing their height just so that one of them could have the seat next to the window when all you can see is cotton balls flying in midair. The guards on the airplane restained both of them to different seats and apparently, both of them didn't get to sit next to the window! Instead they had to sit next to at the ends of two old looking grandma persons. It was a four row seat, where the left end, Joey sat, and the right end, Tristan sat.
"Ugh…" Both sulked.
Now at Seto's place.
"Ugh…" He was just as tired as everyone was. Glad that he FINALLY gets a vacation, he was seated down next to Aku and Femi. Femi, who was sitting next to Aku (Aku was beside Seto), was turning her wrist back and forth, illuminated from her place. He squinted from the sight equally turning his head towards the source.
Seeing the object, it swiftly jogged his memory back to Yugi's millennium puzzle.
"Hey where did you get that?" Kaiba questioned Femi.
Femi didn't say anything and remain silent, but she knew he wouldn't leave him unanswered just like how Yugi did. "Um…," she instantly took away her hand down next to her, "I got it from a jewerly auction."
"Was it a local?"
"Uh… yeah!" She nervously answered him.
Kaiba continued to look at her golden jewerly. "Is it real?"
"Is it time for you to stop asking question?" Femi said brutaly.
"Okay…" He pushed a switch to lower the seat down backwards and he tilted his back onto the headrest and relaxe until the plane got there.
Arrival in Hawaii
Everyone was eager to get out of the airplane and to get to the hotel they are going to stay in. Five buses awaited for the students at the airport and drove to a black covered building. The sun's beams were gleaming upon the black windows. The light was great and that was the reason why the building was colored in such a dim color. The structure was tall and huge. Everytime you move close to it, A illusion of the building would appear hanging over you. It looked like it was going to collaspe any moment and instantly flatten you like a pancake. Around it was covered in dazzling scenery. Palm trees everywhere and golden sands laid besides the hotel's bounaries. I'm guessing that you're thinking its near a beach! Well your correct!
"HOW! A BEACH!" Tristan yelled and stared at the breathtaking view. The rustle of the palms were peaceful and relaxing while the warm sand would massage your feet. The waters were blue green, the right kind of tone anyone would enjoy seeing first and once you manage to force your body into the liquid, you'd be surprise to find it warm! The breezes that pass by are cool and the sun shines with heart, the perfect kind of weather and without any worry that any rain or gloomy cloud would confiscate the blissfulness.
Everyone went inside and waited until the staff had registered everyone's rooms. Once they all knew where they were assigned to, they left immediately for it. It was incredible as it had its two unique regular sized beds, a microwave, a mini refrigerator, a big jacuzzi, beautiful designed walls, a antique table, and a large plasma screen tv.
"Wow… no wonder the cost of the trip was expensive!" Joey hollered. "I'm going to be poor soon." He sighed and sat on one of the two beds in the room. Suddenly, a tall figure entered the room. It was the one and only Seto Kaiba and Joey spotted him.
"HEY RICH BOY! GET OUTTA MY ROOM!" He said scornfully.
"I won't," Seto said plainly. Swinging his head from side to side.
"Why not."
Kaiba sighed. "Because… I'M YOUR ROOMATE!" He yelled mockingly.
"WHAT!"
Now in Tristan's room.
"I heard that we are getting partners for each room. I wonder what kind of a partner will I have…"
Femi entered the room.
"FEMI! Wh-wh-what! Am-am I your partner?" Tristan stammered and quivering at the same time but with equal excitement and joy.
She grinned to his amusement. "Yea… unfortunately." A loud thump was heard. "Huh!" She looked at where Tristan once stood, but disappeared unusually. Her sight bettered as she stepped closer to Tristan's place, seeing him lying on the floor. He fainted.
"Ugh…" Femi groanned. "Why does a pretty girl like me always end up with the lamest guys in school?"
Now in Yugi's room.
Yugi stepped a room and it looked as though someone was already inside. He soon found out it was Aku. She was about to change, but promptly stopped and and uttered a little screech.
"AH!" She dropped her millennium circlet, while she was in the process of taking it off, (which was wore the wrong way…) and fell upon the floor.
In a flash, Yugi sneaked back outside of the doorway. She was just about to change! Yami! Yami! Are you there?
"Yes?" Yami said inside of Yugi's mind. Yugi didn't answer until they've switched places. Now Yami was out and Yugi was inside of his friend's head.
"YUGI!" Yami said angerily. "YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME!"
Yugi now spoke inside of Yami's mind. Yes I can… because I did!
"YUGI!…."
Aku stood before Yami and looked at him awkwardly.
Not again… Yami thought.
Is this Yugi? Aku thought.
Yami heard Yugi laughing in his mind. Yugi! You're acting different nowadays. What has gotten into you?
Now in Tea's room.
"C'mon… I want Yugi to be my roomate." She dreammed of herself and the pharoah together in the room having fun and laughing. Someone entered the room. Is it Yugi?
"Hello." A girl with green locks came inside of the room. She had beautiful, big, blue eyes. Her appearance seem innocent, so she can't be mean. Can she? She entered the room with quietness, no sound of her footsteps, no sound of the air passing through her solid soul. No sound of her presence…
To be continued...
