Chapter 2.)
"You say you feel so down, every time I turn around, and you say you should've been gone by now. And you, you think that everything's wrong, you ask me how to carry on, we'll make it through another day just hold on. Cause life starts now, you've done all the things that could kill you somehow, and you're so far down, but you will survive it somehow because life starts now…"* Clairissa danced and sang to the music blasting from her headphones.
The airship shuddered violently, tossing Clairissa onto the floor. She caught herself with her elbow, her head merely inches from the said surface. "Whoa," she gasped. After the tremor subsided, she ran out to the head of the ship, assuming Doc and Drew had some idea of how the shaking began. "What happened?" She asked, seeing a large crack running down the length of the protective glass of the window that Doc and Drew were trying to see out of. Drew hurriedly explained how the missiles had hit them.
Clairissa's previous expression of confusion morphed into a slight smile. "Well, let me go teach 'em a lesson!" Drew stared at her, horrified.
"You're JOKING!" she cried. Clairissa shook her head, her smirk becoming more defined. Clairissa quickly escaped the room. "CLAIRISSA!"
She jumped into the room Zak and Doyle shared, grabbing both her father's jetpack, and a handful of grenades, her own being too far away. Don't worry, she thought. I'm just borrowing them.
She snuck a look behind herself quickly before snapping up the window and jumping out. The jet-pack roared to life, breaking the pounding silence. Her hair flew back in the wind like a large, red flag as she pursued the vehicle which had sent the missile back towards the airship a second time.
Clairissa managed to sneak through the passageways of the ship unnoticed, but still, she ran to the cockpit where she knew Munya would be piloting the plane. She raced through the space where the door had been carelessly left open. Too late she realized that it was all a trap.
Clairissa was brutally slammed into the wall by Van Rook, where her figure left an indent in the metal. "Greetings and bienvenue, Clairissa," Argost said casually.
"Let go 'a me, ya' freak show!" Clairissa punched at Van Rook, but it had little effect. Van Rook sent a glance a Argost. He returned the look and nodded knowingly.
Van Rook carried Clairissa to the dungeon in a second room, tossing her into a cell, where another already resided. He had looked up when he first heard the yelling of the two now in the room. Rookie is probably covered with bruises by now, Clairissa thought happily.
Clairissa, now locked in, began yelling at the man. The boy had no idea what she was saying, but he had a decent idea that they were quite insulting.
Yuugi was conversing with his dark when they began hearing painfully loud screams. "I never thought it possible," Yami no Yuugi told his hikari, "but I believe that whoever that is, they are screaming louder than you do when you're upset!" After that, their talk ceased. It was hard enough to attempt to speak with the current situation, but the screams made it impossible to concentrate on anything for too long.
A loud slap brought both of them out of their carefully held thoughts. A girl even shorter than Yuugi ran in, staring at the two of them for merely seconds before running quickly away as Van Rook almost grabbed her. She yelled behind her to him. "You'll never catch me alive sucka'!" Eventually, however, she was caught- still alive. She was then thrown into the one cell, which also contained Yuugi.
"Hey, are you okay?" Yuugi called to the girl who had now collapsed, and appeared to be sleeping.
Clairissa sat up. "Are you Yuugi Motou?" she asked. His eyebrows rose.
"How do you know who I am?"
"Oh! Heh, we're looking for a kid who had been kidnapped by Argost. I heard 'is name was Yuugi," she answered, laughing.
"Well, I've definitely been kidnapped," Yuugi retorted grumpily. "Wait." He turned towards her. "How do you speak Japanese? You were speaking English with that man!"
"Hmmm?" she asked looking up. "Oh! Well, when I was younger, my father and I hid out in Japan, where I picked up the language." She grinned. "Best sushi e~ver!" she said in a sing-song voice. Despite the situation, Yuugi couldn't hold back his laugh.
"So, what now?" Yuugi asked quietly once the conversation died down.
"Now," her eyes blazed with fire, "we get ourselves out of this dump." Out of her hair she pulled a bobby pin, which had been hidden, near to invisible. With the pin, she picked the lock. It snapped open with a click. "C'mon, there's an airlock over that way." They silently crept over to the opening, only to find none other than Van Rook and Abby there. "Damn," she murmured.
CZR: "I have actually posted something! Be proud of me!"
Bakura/Marik: *Sarcastic clapping*
CZR: "Ya, thanks guys."
Bakura/Marik: "No prob."
CZR: *Rolls eyes* "Yuugi! If you would."
Yuugi: "Clairissa doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh or the Secret Saturdays, but if she did it would make her very happy…"
CZR: "Yes, yes it would." *Nodding*
Yuugi: "R&R peeps!"
* I don't own the song Life Start Now by Three Days Grace, but I wish I did own that too. It would make me happy. XD
