Geeze, I keep making Anzu's life difficult XD I should feel ashamed, but I don't
Anzu:Geeze thanks
Me:You're welcome. Anyway, I don't own Yugioh or its characters. Elecktra belongs to Sorcess of the nile. Please review!
Anzu:Please pity me!
Me:Ignore her XD
"What about this dress?" Anzu asked. Currently, both girls were in a dress shop called: Flora's Dresses. Much to Elecktra's dismay, both the owner and her HATED each other for something that happened earlier this year. When Elecktra accidently made dresses come to life and start attacking people. That was a very akaward day.
Elecktra stared at the orange dress Anzu was holding. Scrutinizing it, she shook her head. "No, orange is not a good color for you. You need a color like blue, red, or even pink."
Anzu grinned at her. "Since when did you care about fashion?"
Elecktra snorted. "I don't, but I want us both to look good."
Anzu laughed and continued to look through the racks of dresses. Nothing really caught her eye just yet, but something else did. In the dressing room area, a man and a woman were looking at their little daughter, who was wearing a white dress with pink satin ribon around the waist. Currently, the woman was gushing over her.
"Look Masanori! Doesn't are darling little Akiko look precious?"
The man grinned. "Yes she does! Can you believe her christianing is tomorrow?"
The woman shook her head. "No I can't. It seems like just yesterday we took her home from the hospital. I'll go pay for the dress."
The woman left, leaving the man alone with his daughter. The little girl ran into the dressing room and took off the dress, putting on her normal clothes. She looked up at her father with wide green eyes. "Help me put my scarf on Daddy!"
The man smiled. "Of course sweetie. You'll look very pretty tomorrow."
The girl giggled. "Daddy, will you pick me up?"
"Of course. Up we go!" The man picked her up and placed her on his shoulders. The girl laughed as her father picked up the dress to where his wife was paying. Anzu watched the scene, getting a very strange feeling that she was intruding on a special moment. A hand snapped her out of her thoughts. "Hey, are you okay?"
Anzu turned to see Elecktra staring at her in curiosity. Anzu smiled. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just got distracted."
Elecktra frowned. "I know what you feel Anzu. You wish your Dad was like that."
Anzu sighed, seeing no point in denying it. "Yeah, your right. I wish he was like that."
Elecktra grinned. "Come on, lets go find more dresses! I found one you might like!"
Elecktra led Anzu over to a rack and pulled out a long light blue dress. Anzu's eyes lit up. The dress was amazing! The color was the exact color of her eyes, held up by one strap that was covered in silver sequins and wrapped around under her breasts. The rest of the dress flowed out like a waterfall. "Oh Elecktra, its beautiful! How much is it?"
Elecktra looked at the price tag. "Hmmmmm wow, its for sale. Around $40. Can you afford that?"
Anzu nodded. "Before I buy it, I should probably try it on first." She then took the dress of the rack and walked to the dressing room. Much to her pleasure, it fit perfectly. When Anzu came out, Elecktra clapped her hands. "Damn girl, you look good."
Anzu twirled around once. "Thanks. Now, its time to find you a dress."
Elecktra made a face. "Ew, Dresses."
Anzu smiled. "I thought you wanted us to look good."
"I do, but I hate getting fancy."
"Whatever, now lets go look for something!"
In the end, both girls decided on a blue and gold racer back dress that reached to the floor. Elecktra said she liked it because it was simple, yet pretty and it wouldn't make her look like a skanity slut. Or something like that.
"Wow, can you believe it? It's almost 12:00. It feels like we've been out for only an hour." Elecktra comented when she checked her watch. Anzu grinned. "Time flies when you're having fun."
Both girls were currently standing in the town square, wondering where they should go next. Hearing Elecktra's stomach growl, they decided to head out for lunch.
"Hmmmmm a milkshake sounds really good right now." Anzu said more to herself than to her friend. Elecktra grinned. "I like milkshakes."
"You do realize how wrong that sounded."
"Does it look like I care?"
"A valid point."
Elecktra reached over and grabbed a newspaper from the window. Reading it, her eyes brightened. "Hey Anzu, Ishizu is hosting an exibit again, you wanna check it out?"
"Sure, lets do it after lunch?"
As soon as they were done eating, they headed over to the museam. Since it was saturday, there were a lot of people there. Little kids holding onto their parents hands, older kids hanging out at the giftstores. Searching around the museam, they found Ishizu talking to an elderly couple about some hyroglyphics they had uncovered. When she saw them, she greeted them warmly. "Hello Anzu, Elecktra."
"Hi Ishizu." They both said at the same time. Before they could speak to Ishizu, she had walked away to go speak to some people she had approached her. Anzu and Elecktra decided to look around the museam.
"Hey Elecktra."
"Hm?" Elecktra said as she was looking at some pot.
"Do you know why I was reborn?"
Elecktra shrugged. "No. Hey Anzu, do you believe in fate?"
Anzu shook her head. "No."
Elecktra gave her a look. "Anzu, In Egypt, my people believed that everything that happened to them was determind by the gods. I'd say by the way things are turning out, the gods have a lot planned for you."
Anzu put her elbows on her knees and rested her chin in her palms. "Gee that makes me feel better."
"I agree with Elecktra. You truly are special."
Elecktra and Anzu both turned to see Ishizu coming their way. She gave them a calm look. "I've been waiting for you to remember Anzu. You are special."
Anzu stood up. "How am I special. I'm just a normal girl. Or was, until all this happened."
Ishizu smiled gently. "You had a past life. That doesn't happen to often."
Anzu nodded. "I guess so. But...why is this all happening?"
Ishizu sighed. "We tomb keepers," She nodded towards Elecktra, "And magicians have been awating the day the pharoah will return. There is a choice that will be made. Something that will keep the thief king in place. You."
Anzu gasped. "Me?"
Ishizu nodded. "Yes, you. You were his lover in your past life. But the pharoah also loved you too."
Elecktra placed a hand on Anzu's shoulder. "Hear that? You were quiet the looker back then."
Anzu blushed. "Oh stop Elecktra, this is serious."
Ishizu continued. "There is a choice you will have to make Anzu. You have to chose who you want the most, the thief king or the pharoah."
Anzu sighed. "Great, more things I have to deal with. Just wonderful."
Ishizu gave her a sympathetic look. "Don't fret, you will know when the time is right. For now, I shall return something to you. Follow me."
Both girls looked at each other and shrugged. They followed Ishizu down some stairs and into a storage closet, where other artifacts were kept in boxes. Going over to a small box, Ishizu pulled something out and unwrapped it. Taking it over to Anzu, she pressed it gently into her hand. "Here, this originaly belonged to Teana."
Anzu gasped. The pendent, though simple, was very lovely. It was a pearl, encased in some type of gold. Anzu gave Ishizu a look. "Thank you, but who is Teana?"
Ishizu gave Anzu a patient smile. "Anzu, you are Teana. You were Teana in your past life."
Anzu nearly dropped the pendent. "This...This is just weird..I don't want any of this! I just want a normal life!"
Elecktra gave Anzu a serious look. "Anzu, no one has a normal life. Accept the fact and move on with life."
Both girls stared at each other. Anzu sighed. "I guess you're right. But...Bakura's still upset with me."
Elecktra gave a smile. "Give it time. And how can he stay mad at you? He cherishes you more than anything."
Anzu nodded, but inside, she wasn't so sure. If she were mad at someone, she could stay mad at them for a long time. But, she guessed she would have to wait till Monday to find out.
