Hello back again with the eighth chapter. People reading this makes me so happy! It's pretty popular. Thank you so much everyone for your support~ and over 1000 hits too!
(Also so you all know, it's pretty obvious but I'll say it anyway, even in the Nobody's POV Serenity will be referred to as a girl. Why? Well the author can't get confused now can she? Also her real name will be used, it's just everyone else that will refer to her as a guy and use the name Ren Sekai) Also for one the people reading this who requested that I use people's first names in all POVs I'll put their names in parenthesis so that you know who it is.
And now Destiny's lifetime rival is revealed! Did you know the name Leiko means arrogant? There's a reason for that! Also Serenity is SO dense; I would love a guy to tell me that he'd be worried if I was hurt! Serenity can't see what she did XD OCs: Still want/need them.

Serenity: Ru-Ru chan's been pretty inspired lately; she's been waiting to write the last chapter, this chapter and the chapter after this for a while now because of her Pocky obsession.
Ru-Ru: Leave my Pocky obsession alone it doesn't have anything to do with this!

Ru-Ru: *Ties up Bastions mouth again* Please enjoy the chapter! *goes to get some more sweets*
Chapter 8 – Stolen with a Twist
Nobody's POV
"That's all? Y'know I'll just buy you some more tomorrow if it makes you feel better." Jaden said to the rampaging girl. "I don't care about that, I care that someone had the gall to go through my stuff, hack into my computer and steal something from me!" Serenity shouted. 'And if my suspicions are right Timezone-san (Destiny) was the one that did it. But I just can't go around accusing people, I'll need evidence and that's one thing she made sure not to leave… or did she.' She thought as she gazed back to the island's security team that started to investigate. Looking around the crowd of people she locked eyes with Destiny who stood in the back of the crowd, leaned against a tree with an interested look on her face. The Columbia blue eyes of Destiny's would never back down from a challenge, Serenity's hazel-brown eyes glimmered in the dim light as they glared at each other. But of course Serenity became trapped in Destiny's eyes, freezing her so she couldn't move; the other students notice Serenity staring at something and started to look around for what or who. That was until they saw Destiny and everything went silent before they started whispering. "Hey did you hear that she took down an Obelisk yesterday?" "I heard that she's royalty from some unknown country." "She's an ice demon! I bet it was her that took Sekai-san's things!" All this and more as some started to group around the lone Ra Yellow female, her eyes seemed to widen a bit before glaring at all of them, 'They wouldn't dare do anything while island security's here… no they probably would they hate me so much." She thought as she then turned and attempted to run off only to run into none other than Zane Truesdale who stood next to Alexis, they had just come from the harbor after hearing the commotion.
'Damn it my freaking nose!' she mentally shouted as she reached up and rubbed her nose for a moment before peering back at the crowd. 'Kuso!' As the crowd nearly encircled her Destiny frowned, listening to each accusation. 'But it wasn't me…' she thought before a voice shouted and a figure jumped in front of her. "Stop it! This is crazy!" It was Serenity, no idea why she would do such a thing for someone who hated her but apparently she was a little mental at the moment. "What the hell are you doing Sekai?" Destiny nearly hissed. "Saving your arrogant butt, that's what!" Serenity said. "Get out of the way Sekai-san. She probably was the one that broke into your room!" one person said from the crowd. "Then prove it! Where's your proof? I want hard cold evidence that it was her, accusing people of breaking and entering as well as stealing is a serious offense. You need proof to back it!" Serenity shouted, silencing the crowd as they stared at each other. "She had a motive though." One Obelisk girl said, pushing her way to the front. "She hates and accuses you of a serious crime Sekai-san, why don't you leave this up to the bigger people and stay out of it?" "Who are-" Serenity started before Destiny cut in. "Leiko Yamada, what a big surprise to see your arrogant face here." "Destiny Timezone, I can say the same for you. How long's it been, a few days?" Leiko smirked. "Since you've annoyed the crap out of me, or since you've shown your despicable face?" Destiny put her hands on her hips and glared at the brunette. Leiko had waist length brown hair and matching brown eyes, peach skin and she was tall, as well as being more stuck up than almost anyone else on the island at the current moment. Her arch-childhood-rival had always been Destiny, but she always seemed to follow her around.
Serenity looked at the two girls as they viciously hissed back and forth at one another; finally tired of it Leiko put her hand on Serenity shoulder. With one swift motion she pushed her to the ground without second thought, with that sight the security stopped and Jaden ran at full speed through the crowd to Serenity's rescue. Destiny gazed at the fallen girl with slightly concerned eyes before glaring back at Leiko with a disgusted face. "Picking on the weak are we now Yamada? Well since I now owe Sekai one I'll gladly do this for him." Destiny said Leiko looked confused until Destiny's fist made contact with her stomach. Leiko fell to the floor, her arms wrapped around her stomach as she bowed to Destiny's feet, Destiny's smirk widening. "Well now, my debt is repaid. I'll be going now before I have to deal with anyone else." She turned on her heels and stopped in front of Serenity, with a nod she continued on her way back to the Ra Yellow dorm. 'I know one thing's true… I go into Sekai's room, I didn't look through her computer, sure I can hack but it doesn't mean that it was me. Really does just a motive solve a case? I wouldn't do anything that drastic.' Destiny thought as she walked.
Serenity's POV
What exactly was going on here was beyond me, Timezone-san (Destiny) had a rival? This wasn't really expected, because it didn't take a rocket scientist to see that if she had a rival then her rival would be a suspect. Leiko Yamada had a reason to go through my room as well, actually everyone who hated Timezone-san (Destiny) had one, frame her and get rid of her once and for all. So then it could have been anyone, sure I still thought that Timezone-san (Destiny) was the most obvious choice but now it also made enough sense that Yamada-san (Leiko) or someone else could have done this as well. I was so confused now; a few minutes ago I thought for sure that it was Timezone-san (Destiny) and now… I didn't know what to think. "Ren are you alright?" Jaden's voice said from next to me. I looked in his direction just in time to catch his arms fastening around my stomach and pulling me to my feet, my breath caught in my chest as he embraced me. Even though it was only for a moment, any higher and my secret would be exposed… well if he was able to put two and two together that was. I watched as Yamada-san (Leiko) got up and stared at me. "Sorry about that Sekai-san, I'll make it up to you somehow." She smiled the most fake smile I had ever seen in my life and trust me I've seen A LOT of fake smiles before, but to show that I didn't notice I smiled back and said. "It's fine don't worry so much about it. It's nothing too serious but you should get your stomach checked, I'll start worrying if you got hurt." Just then plenty of the Obelisk girls let out a large squeal, their faces all a bit flushed until my eyes met with Yamada-san (Leiko) again. Her surprised face flushed as she smiled a real smile.
"Thank you so much Sekai-san." She said happily. I didn't know what I said that made her and the other girls act like that… apparently I never really knew what it was like to be a girl and catch comments like… whatever it was I said. "Sekai, we haven't found anything yet and need to keep searching. Is there anyone you four could stay with for a night?" one of the security people asked. "Umm…" I started thinking, not finding any answers. "Sekai-kun, you could stay in my room if you'd like." Konna-kun (Carson) said from my other side, although I didn't remember when he actually got there. "Uh… well…" I started before a voice cut me off. "Or you could stay in my room, it's big enough to fit you four." I looked for the owner until I saw Misawa-kun (Bastion) standing near me. "Ano… I…" I started nervously, again hearing comments from some girls like:
"Oh he's so shy! It's cute!"
"What an adorable face. He looks just like a child."
"So cute! He's blushing so much!"
And other comments that I found a bit disturbing, being me was probably why I was a bit freaked out. Any REAL guy would probably like some of those comments, or the attention… but what I noticed is that I got more attention as a guy than I ever did as a girl. As a girl the only person outside my house who would interact with me in a kind way was Jaden, the other people in school would pick on me and him because we were always together, he was the only one my age who was there for me. All the people from our street that he hung around and dueled didn't like me so I didn't bother with them, except when it came to dueling. I remembered always dueling them, then being left alone again… I didn't care though, I had Jaden. He stood in place of Otou-san and Onii-san, as well as my friend, I always got nervous being asked too many questions and was never able to answer, it still bugged me now. "But you have some roommates Carson so we wouldn't fit, but thanks anyway. Hey Bastion, we'd be able to stand with him." Jaden intervened. So it was decided, we'd be sleeping in the Ra Yellow dorm in Misawa-kun's (Bastion) room… this could be trouble. I meant really, he was one of the smartest people on this overpopulated island and it wouldn't be long before he was able to put two and two together like Timezone-san (Destiny), I couldn't get close to him because of the risk but if I didn't and he did find out I wouldn't be able to keep him quiet! 'What should I do? This is bad! Really bad! And not just that, Timezone-san's (Destiny) in that dorm, she'd have more chance to investigate me!' I thought as my head began to swim with the thoughts. "Come on Ren." Jaden said, quickly dragging me back to our room where Syrus and Chumley, along with the security, were standing… I found this all so strange though…
Nobody's POV
Jaden, Syrus and Chumley were able to grab all of their personal belongings that they were going to need, however Serenity on the other hand could only grab what wasn't touched, which was one outfit for school and some books. Of course while no one was looking, since they had yet to check her laptop, Serenity deleted the file that had her previous e-mails on it before she left. That way her identity was safe and the next time she contacted her aunt she would definitely have a new e-mail address for her to contact her at… Jaden was going to be an obstacle. She would have to delete those e-mails as quickly as possible… before she left she probably should have thought some of this through a bit more. But being on a time limit was her disadvantage, Kaiba had all of the advantages, he had the money, owned the school, and had her under his thumb. Able to control her so easily was pathetic, it disgraced her but she had to deal with it, but there was still the fact that he so easily accepted her, it was fishy. Before she assumed that it was because he saw it as there was no way he could lose, but even so would he be so kind on his own free will? To a complete stranger? She along with most of the world doubted it highly. It didn't take a rocket scientist to realize that there was something more behind this, magical? Probably not, she wasn't very special either, she wasn't extremely pretty, but she wasn't ugly either. She wasn't the best duelist, but she was good enough to pass her exams. However she saw this was beyond her knowledge but she knew one thing and one thing only, something or someone put him up to letting her in. This meant that something more had to be behind it for him to even consider the other person's proposition. But what?
"Hey Ren!" Jaden said as he reentered the room and found Serenity staring at the ceiling. "Huh?" She replied accidently in her normal voice and quickly pretended to cough. "You okay?" Jaden said, completely oblivious to the fact that she just spoke as a girl would. "Yeah just choked a bit." she lied. "Anyway aren't you gonna take a bath? You've been studying ever since we got here." He continued. "Oh yeah. It's just I have Banner-sensei's extra class tomorrow so I wanna be one step ahead of him." She laughed. Jaden nodded and took out some papers from his bag. "Then you should understand this stuff right?" "Yeah it's pretty easy, why? Do you need some help Jaden?" Serenity asked, looking down at the answerless page. "Yeah." He said, taking a seat down next to her. "Where exactly do you need help?" she said, looking back at him. 'Eek! His face is a bit too close!' Their faces being just barely two inches away, Serenity quickly looks back to the paper, although taking notice to just close he's sitting to her. 'It's strange… I never really cared about how close he was back before this crazy situation started but now… I feel like he's just like any other guy… I'm getting nervous having him so close.' She thought confused. 'I hope it'll return to how it was before this happened.' "I need help with all of it." He finally said. "O-okay then, we'd better get started then." She said happily.
Getting Jaden to understand math is like trying to get him to understand love, nearly impossible no matter how you looked at it. Although he didn't actually understand it completely he was able to do some problems on his own so it was a start right? After finishing the homework they sat there for a moment before Serenity said. "I should double check it just to make sure it's completely right." While she did her job Jaden watched, being reminded of how Serenity would help him with his homework back in Domino made him happy; even though it was a bit lonely for him without her he was happy to have found someone so similar. "You know you look like my friend Bunny right now." This was his simple statement that made the hairs on Serenity's neck stand in attention. "W-what?" she stuttered. "Huh? Sorry, it's just you remind me a lot of my best friend. Right now she's in Domino city because she couldn't come this year. But you'll meet her next year, she's a great duelist. You'll have a lot of fun dueling her Ren; after all you two have so much in common." He smiled as he continued. "Hey are you related to anyone by the name of Serenity Valara by the way?" "No, not that I know of at least. You miss your friend?" she said slowly. "Of course! Wanna know something funny, she was the most honest person I ever met! She never lied, well at least not to me if she ever did lie. She wanted to come here so bad but her home situation isn't the best. I wish I could help her a bit more…" he said but looked a bit frustrated towards the end of his speech.
Serenity's POV
With those words I felt guilty; the inside of my heart hurts as his words replay constantly. He trusted my word so much and now to actually betray him… WHAT KIND OF FRIEND WAS I? A terrible one that was it. Ra could it get any worse? Right on cue it did! So much worse. "What's that?" he said pointing to the necklace that I kept under my shirt. "Huh?" I said a bit surprised. His warm fingers found the chain on my neck; he pulled it out from my shirt and stared at the pendant that hung on the chain. It was a simple pendent that Onii-san gave me before I moved away, it was just a circle with a moonstone in it, it wasn't too girly so I was still able to wear it. Also since I never wore it until I came here Jaden wouldn't have ever seen it, so I was safe when it came to this necklace… although I wasn't safe from the mental break down that I might end up having if he doesn't back up! I held my breath as he continued to examine the necklace, I was getting so light headed too, I never felt so strange around Jaden but I also never cross dressed before either so it might be a natural reaction. "This is a nice necklace Ren. I never actually expected you to wear something like this." He said in amazement. "It was a gift. I rarely remove it." I said, a bit nervous. I can feel the heat radiating from his body, it's strange but part of me doesn't want him to move, and nothing's actually happening. "Hey Jay are you… oh this is where you went. " Syrus said as he entered, his blue hair wet from showering. "Ren why don't you go and take a bath, the water's really warm here!" "I think that'd be a great idea!" I said as I broke free from Jaden's grasp I grabbed a towel and my bed clothes. Before I could actually leave Jaden's voice stopped me. "Thanks again Ren!" "Welcome Jay." I said as I left and sighed miserably.
Nobody's POV
'Awww nothing like a nice warm shower!' Serenity thought, washing out her long black hair. Washing off the soap from her body and hair was now always a quick process but she had to stop to notice something strange. She poked her sides curiously and thought back to what every girl she saw looked like and gasped. 'Now my body chooses to develop? This isn't good at all! Now my body looks about nine…' Shaking off the thought she got out and dried herself, tying the ace-bandage back around her now developing chest, slipping on her undergarments and PJs, finally tying up her wet hair, wetting the wig and lightly drying it. "That should do." She said as she put it back on her head and grabbed the hair tie she always tied it up with. "Don't need it." Briskly she left the bathroom and looked around the hall nervously. 'Good no one's here!' she mentally cheered. Turning to go back to Bastions room she heard a door and footsteps coming from behind her.
Mental Note Number 7: Learn to calm down!
"Oi Sekai." Destiny said from behind her. Serenity whirled around to look at the blonde girl who appeared to be wearing her pajamas; she was wearing a white mid-thigh length halter dress with a small bow on the front and a small pair of matching slippers. Her hair was loose from its bow and barrette leaving long bangs bordering her face, a full set of bangs over her forehead and a particular piece standing up in a curved fashion. 'She doesn't look so menacing like this… she looks fragile, almost all bones… and very small feet.' Serenity thinks gazing back to Destiny's cat-like glowing blue eyes. "You know hentai; I hate it when people continuously stare at my body. What are you a homosexual?" Destiny stated with extreme boredom lining her tone. Serenity's face grew hot from embarrassment and looked to the side before saying. "I-I don't know what you're talking about. I'm a guy so if I-I'm looking at you it wouldn't be homosexual." "You're not a guy, you're a transvestite." Destiny stated again. 'That sounds familiar.' Serenity thought, remembering the comment she got from Aster Phoenix before she left Domino. Her wig hair was loose and wet from shower water and her real wet hair underneath; she wore black sweat pants and a black T-Shirt since she couldn't bring her pajamas with her. "Anyway there's something I need to tell you." Destiny said, stepping closer. Serenity took a step back from her predator. "I-I'm listening." She stuttered. Destiny reached up and grabbed a firm hold of her jaw, with her other hand she held Serenity against the wall before continuing. (A/N: Her hand is on Serenity's stomach) "I know you think that it was me who went through your room. But I'm telling you this loud and clear. I don't like being accused, especially of something I didn't, wouldn't, or thought about doing. Do I make myself clear?"
Serenity vigorously nodded as Destiny released her, she watched as the girl walked off into one of the rooms towards the end of the hall. Standing there for a bit after the door was closed she sighed and held her heart. 'That was so nerve wrecking. For a moment I didn't know what she was going to do… So straightforward… but why would a suspect come and tell me that if it wasn't them? Maybe because she thinks that the only person I see that would have done that was her… she never really lied to my knowledge but I can't just base it off of what she said after all.' She thought before continuing on her way to Bastion's room. Of course she didn't know that this would be one of the most awkward times of her life!
Serenity's POV
"Now to decide sleeping arrangements. They only brought two extra beds because that is what would fit in my room. So we will have to make do with what we have, I won't be sharing my bed though." Misawa-kun (Bastion) said when I came back to the room. Well we weren't in a position to question him, he is letting us stay and all… Looking at the new beds I noticed how small they were and how Chumley would take a whole bed, which meant… me, Jaden and Syrus would have to share a bed… lovely wasn't it? And judging by the look on everyone's face we all knew that Chumley would take up one of the beds alone, I felt bad for Chumley because it was kinda mean. Forget that it was extremely cruel that we all came up with that conclusion!
Just as I said earlier Chumley got a bed to himself, and now to decide sleeping arrangements for Jaden, Syrus and me. We dueled a bit after I came back, well Jaden, Syrus and Misawa-kun (Bastion) did, me and Chumley decided to watch. After that we watched the DVDs from Duelist Kingdom and Battle City that Misawa-kun (Bastion) had is when we started the decision that Syrus had no say in. "Ren you wanna sleep in the middle? If you don't I call the middle!" Jaden asked me. "No, I want to sleep on the outside of the bed. I don't like being crowded or clumped against the wall." I answered. "Then it's settled, Ren's on the outside, I'm in the middle and Syrus' by the wall. Although he'd have to sleep with his head by the end of the bed." Jaden said. I felt bad for Syrus having to sleep near Jaden's feet; he was definitely going to get kicked in the face. But I had to admit I was happy that it wasn't me, I sat on the edge of the bed as the other two climbed into their spots. I had to share a bed with two guys; to make it less awkward was why I had to sleep next to Jaden like I had done so many times as a child. So it was a bit more natural for me, I'd freak out if I was between the two of them, and I couldn't allow that to happen. Once the lights went out and everyone was settled it started raining, I couldn't fall asleep so I just stared at the ceiling as the storm commenced. All I could think about was what Timezone-san (Destiny) said earlier, her face was so serious and angry; she must have been really smart or just able to see the obvious to know already that I was a girl. But as I thought back Kimamoto-san (Raina) seemed a bit suspicious too, especially after class today… Rhodes-san (Alexis) too… It wouldn't take long for others to start becoming suspicious of me.
Otou-san gave me two months, so I lasted longer than Aunt Sakura said I would at least. But his condition got worse… now he couldn't even remember me; he was a prisoner in his own mind now. As his mind gets worse eventually he wouldn't be able to do anything, it was terrible but I couldn't do anything… but I long to hear him call my name just one more time. Staying positive wasn't the easiest thing, but what else could I do for him, I couldn't see him? He used to love dueling, he was a pro before his mental state became too bad, I remember watching him at his tournaments. Then for a short time he worked for Maximillion Pegasus-san as a card designer, then he became too ill to work and ended up in the hospital, now he was in a rehab. They said he had about a year left, and that he had a zero to two percent chance of recovering his memories, but that was enough for me. At least it wasn't a flat out zero right? I looked to my side and saw Jaden sleeping soundly, well he was snoring already but he wasn't moving around. I sighed and rolled with my back facing him, trying to get comfortable on a comfy, so far coming up short. It wasn't cold either, I felt so warm… wait what? I was just cold a moment ago! I looked back to see Jaden's face, then down to see his arms wrapped around me tightly. At the sight my heart skipped at least two beats, I could feel my face getting hot. I just wanted to move but I couldn't, I was so nervous, her arms were right under my chest on my stomach, I knew that he was a deep sleeper but what if by any chance he woke up or he moved his hands up? I didn't- OW! My stomach! It hurt so much, another cramp, I hadn't felt too much pain throughout the day but right now, it hurt so much!
Nobody's POV
The thunder clapped again as Serenity lay there in Jaden's arms, her face a mix of pain, embarrassment and another unnamed emotion. Her quick beating heart could almost be heard in the nearly quiet room, a stray long hair escaped from its place under her wig. But with the warmth radiating from his body, gradually she fell asleep herself, still tightly wrapped in his embrace.
The morning light filled the room as Bastion rose from his bed because of a loud pounding on his door. He opened the door to reveal the island's security and Destiny being held to the wall like a prisoner. "Bastion Misawa, we need to speak with Ren Sekai immediately." The head of the security said. "Yes, of course." Bastion said, turning on his heels and going to where Serenity was sleeping soundly. "Sekai-kun, Sekai-kun. You have to wake up. Sekai-kun!" Bastion said, shaking Serenity's arm, his hand accidently dropping to her chest. 'That's odd… it's… soft…' he thought, shaking off the thought he continued shaking her arm. "Hmm…?" Serenity whined as she slowly opened her eyes to see the grey haired Ra Yellow student. "Misawa-kun (Bastion)… what's wrong?" She yawned as she sat up, rubbing one of her eyes. "The Security needs to speak with you." He said. "Oh, okay." She yawned, getting up and going to the door half-asleep. Then she saw the blonde hair girl against the wall and fully awakened, looking at the security she said. "What's going on?" "We found some evidence in Destiny Timezone's room, we have reason to suspect she's the one who broke into your room yesterday. Please come with us." The head said. "Can I see the evidence?" she asked, her eyes widening. "Yes, come this way." The head said, leading her down the hall to Destiny's dorm room. It looked like all of the Ra Yellow rooms, it was also very orderly and clean… with three packs of Pocky on the desk. One pack was open with one of the sticks lying on the desk, bitten, it was in front of a picture of a woman with four children, one of them, a little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes who looked exactly like the woman, sat on her lap. Destiny's barrette and ribbon lay on either side of the frame, Serenity's eyes widened at the sight, not wanting to believe what she was seeing.
"I'm telling you it wasn't me!" Destiny complained. "Then explain the Pocky!" the guard next to her said. "I don't know how it got there, I swear! I can't even eat Pocky!" Destiny shouted. 'She can't eat… maybe some research could help…' Serenity thought as she turned to the head. "What do you plan on doing?" she asked. "Question her, she'll eventually give up her pride and talk." The head asked. "I see… well I should be going now." Serenity said. "But… can I have a few words with her?" "… As long as the guard watching her is near." The head said. Serenity nodded and she stepped over to the blonde girl and waited for all others, except the guard who was watching her were left. "Timezone-san…" Serenity started. "You think it was me too, don't you?" Destiny growled. "Well I'd be lying if I said that it never crossed my mind, but I'm gonna try and help prove you innocent. I think there's someone else that's behind this, it's been on my mind for a while now. Well I'll see you then." Serenity quickly said, dashing off back to Bastion's room. 'How exactly am I going to do this?' she thought.
Mental Note Number 8: Don't get yourself involved in things you have no idea how to solve!
Ru-Ru: *Sleeping with empty plates on the floor*
Serenity: She's tired from all of the sugar apparently.
Alexis: Oh so it's my turn.
Ru-Ru: *wakes up* is Misawa gone yet?
Serenity: Yes he left while you were asleep.
Ru-Ru: Okay then *stretches and stands* what did you all think of the chapter. *yawns*
Alexis: It was like all of your chapters, some humor, and some drama.
Ru-Ru: Guess so.
Serenity: It seems a bit unoriginal.
Alexis: Well it is her writing style so she can't really help it.
Ru-Ru: True! Also here's a contest! There are three semi-couple moments in this chapter between two of the characters, tell me who the two are and where in the chapter at least one of them happens and I'll do a request fic! (As in even a short quote from that part of the chapter) If someone gets all three then I'll do two request fics and a video on YouTube as well for them. Now anyone for some chocolate?
Serenity: *laughs* that's the spirit.
Alexis: Please review, you know the rules with her. She won't update until you do.
Ru-Ru and Serenity: See you all soon!
