Desert Flower: Chapter 7

Ai's POV

I was at home in my room tip toeing down stairs looking to make sure he didn't hear me, I sigh silently in relief about to grab the door knob when his voice roughly spoke out making me shiver in fear I turn around smiling nervously at him.

"And where do you think your going huh? I told you you need to do my laundry then cook my dinner." I bit the bottom of my lip gently "I already did father, I promise my friend's I would meet them at the Torunament tonight." he scuff "I don't gives a rats ass if you promise you stupid friend's, just do my laundry then cook dinner you ungreatful brat...just like your mother." I was going to talk him into letting me go again but when he talk bad about mother...I was furiest, how dare he talk bad about mother!

I glared at him harshly "Don't. You. Dare! Talk bad about mom! Your the ungreatful bastard! You didn't love mom, you killed her!" I was going to say more when my head jerked to the side from being slap hard by my father "I can say what ever I want you brat! Only reason I kept you here so you can be my slave, now start doing my laundry!" I gently put my hand over my cheek where he slap me glaring at him "No! I don't have to listen to you anymore! I'm leaving and I'll put you in jail!" I turn around quckly and high tail it out of my house...not my house anymore rushing through the streets car's honking at me but I didn't care, tears cascading down my cheek some flying off in the air.

I stop to catch my breathe close by where the Tournament Seto Kaiba made, I was about to walk closer to find Rose or the other's but I heard Bakura's voice behind me I freaked out no one knows my father abuses me and uses me as a slave I quickly wipe the tears away the best I could turned around with a smile on my face "Hi Bakura! You headed to the Tournament too?" I tilt my head sideways when he didn't reply just staring at my face...oh crap! I forgot my dad slap me! He saw the red mark on my cheek, I quickly cover the cheek that was slap smiling nervously but I was shocked when i heard Bakura's voice became venomies like "Who, do that..." I gulp seeing his white bangs cover his eye's "N-no one! I just accidently walk into my door while I was rushing here when I realize I was going to be late." I explain/lied

"...You know...lying isn't you Akila. Tell me who harmed you so I can deal with them." I frown when he called me 'Akila'. My name is Ai...Bakura is really acting weird "I'm fine, really...I don't want to burden you with my problems." I was scared but not of Bakura but of people knowing about my fake life, he sigh walk right in front of me lift my chin up gently looking at me with his intense eye's staring back into mine "Your always so selfless even back then. I want to protect you my princess but I can't if you hide things from me." I blush when he called me his princess, I wanted to melt right then and there but I resisted it.

I sighed in defect "Fine, you know how I told everyone about my family? I lied...My mom isn't alive she's dead from a accident, which I know it wasn't a accident! My father killed her...he's a heartless bastard! He only kept me so he could use me as his slave..." I close my eye's sniffing softly more tears roll down my cheek I felt Bakura's hand move from my chin to my cheek wuping the tear from my face gently, I open my eye's staring at him with such sadness he lean his forehead agents mine "I wont anyone...not even your father touch you." I felt safer just being with him what he did next took me by surprise he was kissing me! I was in shock but I got over it and melted in his kiss and kiss him back.

Rose's POV

So far I got six Locator Cards, it was hard to get them but I did it in the end. I was walking around looking for Yugi or the others but so far no luck "Why did I told Yugi I'll be fine? I forgot I'm not good with wondering around like a lost cat." I sigh then I realize I had my cell! I pulled it out of my jean pocket speed dialed Yugi's name...don't ask, I like he keep his number on speed dial cause in case...never know.

I put the cell agents my ear while looking around closely hearing it ring couple of times then he answered but it wasn't his voice it was the Pharoah's "Rose? Are you okay?" I frown confused why he is in a panic? "I'm fine...why? Did something happen? I'm trying to look for you but I'm kind of lost..." I shyly told him I felt so embarriss I said that but I can't lie, I heard him sigh in relief saying something to someone? "Yugi- I mean Pharaoh." I heard him chuckle "Please, just call me Yami or if you rather call me Yugi too? If it makes you comfortable."

I smiled gently "I'll call you Yami for now, but what's wrong? You sounded like you were in a panic or something when I called." I heard sigh "That master guy his name is Marik, and he has Joey, Tea and Mokuba. I'm with Kaiba in his helacoptor searching him them, I want you to stay safe and be on guard at all times...what ever Marik wants you for I don't want to find out." I nodded "Okay, just be safe...take care of Yugi even though you share his body...just keep safe."

"Don't worry I'll protect our friend's and Yugi, I'll call you when we have their location." I hang up the cell put it back in my jean pocket looking around carefuly walking forward being on guard but it was making me nervous...I'm never good at things like this. I walk up too the dock when I found it, rather come here then surrounded by people that keep want to dual me I already have six Locator card's so I don't need to dual anyone anymore.

I breath in the fresh air while staring at the lovely sky and ocean. The out of know where my cell ringed, I pulled it out of my pocket turned it on then put it agents my ear "Hello?" "Rose!" I frown "Yami- mmhm!" I was grab behind a hand covered my mouth while knock my cell from my hand, I can barely heard Yami's voice from my cell that was on the ground near me "Rose?!" I close my eye's open my mouth then bite the persons hand that cover my mouth took my chance pick up my cell then ran. I put my cell agents my ear again while running "Yami! Someone is chasing me, w-what do I do?" I was in a panic nothing like this happened to me in my life.

"Rose calm down!, you need to look around and find a hiding spot and stay quiet and tell me where your at and I'll be there, okay?" I nodded "Y-yes." I look around stopping for a while finding a crawl in space so I went on my hand's and knees making sure nothing isn't showing put my cell agents my ear shacking slightly, whispering softly "I-I'm hiding...I'm at the docks, hurry Yami...I think the person is coming."

"Don't worry, I'll be there just stay stronge." I heard him hang up so I push the off butten put it down gently near my feet hugging my knees agents my chest scared seeing the person shoes near the crawling space I was at holding my breathe, praying too what ever god there is the person out there doesn't find me but of course god didn't hear me or he's ignoring me cause when I didn't hear anything or see his shoes I slowly crawled out slowly poke my head out seeing it cleared so I crawled out all the way turn around reach for my cell in the crawling space brought it up to my face ready to speed dial Yugi's number.

A cloth was covering my mouth with some smelly stuff when I breathed it in sturggling agents the person who's doing this until I stopped struggling out like a light in the persons arms then being carried away with my cell on the ground alone.
