Me:I am back...Again
Rin:Good. Now start the next chapter
Me:Yeesh. Anyway, I don't own Yugioh or its characters. I only own Rin and Akio. Elecktra belongs to Sorceress of the nile. No flames, but everything else is appreciated.
Akio:Now start the story. Now
Me:Okay Okay, sheesh
"Hiro, will she be alright?" Anzu asked her brother as he stepped out of Rin and Akio's room.
"She'll be alright." He said as he took off his stethescope and put it in his bag. "She's perfectly fine on the outside, but I think she needs to talk about what's been bothering her lately. I've noticed it's been causing stress on her."
Bakura looked at his brother-in-law and then peered into Rin's room. She was asleep, with Akio standing over her protectively. He sighed and ran a hand through his white hair. "But she'll be alright. I don't know what's been wrong with her. She started acting like this ever since she came home from her first day of school." Anzu looked at her daughter in concern and turned to the men. "Maybe she's being bullied. She does have odd hair."
"Hey!"
Anzu looked at her husband. "It's true. Most people don't have white hair. I'm really worried about her." Bakura nodded and placed an arm around his wife's shoulders, comforting her. "It'll be okay. We'll find out what's wrong with her."
Hiro nodded and looked at his watch. "I have an appointment I have to go to. Call me if she has anymore problems." He said and then he walked out the door into the late September sunshine. Anzu sighed and went into the kitchen to make dinner, Bakura following closely behind her.
...
"Rin..."
Rin looked at her brother with sleepy eyes. "Hey Akio." She got up and stretched, not feeling like herself. Akio gave her a worried look. "What's wrong? You're not being yourself. Did something happen to you?"
Rin shook her head. "I'm fine. Just...tired lately. That's all. Don't worry about me."
Akio sighed. "It's my job to worry about you. If you're hurting, then I'm hurting. I don't like sad Rin, I like happy Rin."
Rin felt like she was going to cry when he said that. She wanted to tell Akio about the images in her head when she looked at people, but he would think she was crazy. No-one saw images of people in the future. It was impossible. And how could she tell her parents? Akio gave her one last look before walking out the door.
...
At the Merane's house
"So Amba, how was your day at school?" Marik asked that night at dinner. Amba swallowed some of her milk and replied. "It was fine. Akio has a lot to say after school...but Rin..."
Elecktra raised an eyebrow. "Rin what?"
Amba sighed. "She's not the same. She's all gloomy and depressed. Like she has something on her mind."
Elecktra paused. "I heard that Hiro went to their house to check on her. I'm starting to get worried too. I'm thinking...that maybe her powers are starting to kick in."
Marik gave her a serious look. "I'm guessing Anzu and Bakura never told them about what happened eleven years ago."
Amba gave a puzzled look. "What happened eleven years ago Daddy?"
Marik gave Elecktra a look. She nodded and told him to go on. "Eleven years ago, some Greek assasin starting collecting the millennium items, injuring the people who held them. Then they kidnapped Uncle Ryou and Aunt Anzu. It turns out that Anzu had a greek blood line that went back to 3,000 years ago. She was a vessel to harbor the archon Gaea. When Anzu defeated Gaea by setting her free, Gaea gave Anzu part of herself, so that Anzu would always be with her. This gift would be passed down throughout her decendents. So Rin and Akio will inherit powers eventually."
Amba stared at her parents. "That's...very...confusing."
Elecktra laughed. "I know sweetie. But it'll become easier to understand one day. Don't worry."
Marik nodded. "Just be glad it's not your mother. Then we would have more Elecktra to deal with."
"Couch. Tonight."
"Dang it."
...
The next day
Akio stared blankly at the bored in front of him. The teacher was droning on and on about adding numbers and such, that it began to bore him a little. He already knew how to add and such. It was like reading the same book over and over and over again. He looked at Rin, who was also staring at the bored. He felt anxiety build up in him. Rin was so distant now, it was like he didn't even know her.
"Akio..."
Akio looked around, thinking he had just heard a voice. He shook his head at his stupidity. The only one talking was the teacher. And she hadn't said his name.
"Akio...Akio...wake up...it's time to wake up..."
Akio blinked. He stared at the teacher when she began to speak to him. He saw...images. Images of when she was a little girl, images of...things he would rather not see, and images of other things in her life. It was...odd. He looked at Rin and his eyes widened. He couldn't read her. He couldn't read her at all. It was like she had some wall in front of her and he couldn't see. Maybe, just maybe, she had something similiar like this too.
The minute school was done and they got home. Akio led her to their room and faced her. "Rin, I have something to tell you." He said in a quiet voice. She gave him a surprised look. "What is it?" she asked.
"I...I have something...wrong with me."
"Like what?"
Akio sighed. "During school, I saw images of our teacher when she was younger, like the things she had already done in life. It was like watching a movie of someone's life. Do you have something like this too?"
Rin stared at him, tears building up in her eyes. "Y..yes! I see images...of things that haven't happened yet. Like looking into a crystal ball and seeing someone's future. I don't like it...I see how they die. I...I can't control it!"
Akio hugged her tightly. "Maybe...we have to balance each other."
"Balance? How?"
"Well, I don't know. Maybe I have to help you control yours and you have to help me control mine."
Rin sniffed and nodded her head. "O...okay. Should we tell Mommy and Daddy?"
Akio nodded and looked her in the eyes. "I think they should know. Maybe they'll know what to do. They're adults after all."
...
"So let me get this straight," Anzu said as she stared at the twins who were holding each other's hands tightly. Currently, she and Bakura were on the couch with Elecktra, Marik, and Amba sitting on the love seat across from them. "You're telling me that you see images of people's past and future."
Akio nodded. "Yup. I see the past and Rin can see the future. Is that good or bad?"
Bakura looked at Anzu and he nodded his head. Anzu sighed and began the whole story of what happened eleven years ago. To show the twins she wasn't making this up, her pupils dialated into deep purple slits. This kind of freaked Rin, Akio, and Amba out a little. Even Marik shivered a little when he saw those eyes. Anzu sighed again and changed her eyes back to normal.
"Mommy, Daddy, you're not angry at us are you?" Rin asked a bit shyly.
Anzu and Bakura got off the couch and gave their children a hug. "We're not mad." Bakura started. Anzu kissed their heads. "Parents love their children no matter what. And we knew this would happen eventually. And we'll always love you. Powers or not. We'll still love you."
Me:Yeah yeah it was short, but I promise the next one will be longer. See ya'll next time!
