I'm back! Beware of my horrendous stories that will drive you insane! Like me! uh, when I wrote this, I was feeling really hyper, so ignore the preppy/silly tone in the chapter k? I think Dana's sugar was poisoned… it hasn't worn off in like…. 3 hours… oh well!
One thing… I am sort of scared of Yami Marik, so in this story, I'm going to be mean to Yami Marik, after all, he was mean to Malik!
Disclaimer- do we have to do these? I don't own Yugioh.
Chapter Three… (3)… (III)… (3)… (Yeah, you get it…)
Charlotte's POV
I wake up with a massive headache. The ceiling above me shakes and I force my eyes close so I can shut out the pain. Moaning, I turn over to see someone familiar- the super smart CEO of Kaiba corp or something like that. We just stare at each other for a while. Finally, trying to break the silence, I try to think of something to say from the jumbled mess of my exploding brain. I hastily offer him my sweetest smile. His cold face doesn't crack. My mind races for something intelligent to say.
"Um, thanks… for helping me." I try to back my lame comment with a smile. The scary man's face remains emotionless. Feeling my face turn red I sit there hoping in vain that some miracle will turn me invisible. People like this scare me. What if he is some serial killer that is going to kidnap me, wait, he's already kidnapped me. Well, he could still hold a ransom… not that my uncle would pay any of it… Anyways, maybe the CEO who looks like a respectable person on the outside is actually some perverted idiot who can't think right? What if the police want him? What if he's some illegal drug dealer! What if he's actually the leader of a highly dangerous gang? He suddenly stands up and I quickly suppress a flinch. Can't he move slower? It's like he was the one who jumped up and flinched. Sheesh, people are just paranoid.
"You're the girl that's staying with Malik aren't you" the perverted illegal drug dealer said, or rather accused! Humph, as if it were MY fault I was staying at Malik's house…
"Yeah, look, uh, thanks for helping me. I don't know how I would've managed if you didn't" I replied in my nicest voice… it helps to be a good girl.
"Whatever, you would have been dead. Next time, think before you run into her again. Ellis doesn't take kindly for sluts like you." with those words he sauntered off in search of a phone. (Haha, die Kaiba! Die! Jk! …MeeP! Runs from Larien's torch of Idril- burning)
Okay, so, letting the words sink in, I just blankly stare at the nicely decorated pale white wall in front of me. Yay. I've just been slapped in the face in return for something complimenting… why does everyone hate me?
I even have a list of all the people that hate/ignore me…
PHM People that Hate Me
Malik
I don't know about Bakura, he is scary too
Ellis
Ellis' minions of doom
All the girls in my class
All the cheerleaders at my school
All the Malik fans (see previous two)
These two gay guys
Kaiba
My PHM list is rather long for my first day I think.
Seto Kaiba's POV
The phone, the phone, the phone, and the phone the sooner the girl is out of my house, the better… the phone… WHERE IS THE PHONE! I bet Mokuba did this.
"MOKUBA!" I yell in a most undignified, un- CEO like manner. As I expected, my oh, so sweet brother comes running at my heels. I glare down at him and he starts crying the moment our eyes meet.
"I didn't do it! I really didn't! It wasn't me!" he bawled into my newly cleaned jacket. "It wasn't me who let in all those viruses onto your computer that you told me never to touch! It wasn't me!"
Okay, I'm am just going to completely ignore that last comment…
"Mokuba, whatever, tell me where the phone is, what did you do to it?" he ordered. I knew he had probably tried to take it to school for his project of dissecting household objects, which, unfortunately included smashing it with a hammer. The last couple telephones, cell phones and toaster were met with this depressing end. So now, I have banned Mokuba from the last phone and I have confiscated his cell phone. (Surprising, how it was the only one that survived his dissecting rampage) Just as a suddenly quiet Mokuba began to say something, a ring erupted from the laundry room. Dashing for the phone, I glanced at the name on the screen and answered the phone to a particularly upset Egyptian.
Malik's POV
Okay, the first thing that hits me when I get home is Isis bombarding me with questions like "How was school?" "How is Charlotte" "Did you help her to her classes" "By the way, where IS Charlotte?" Well, the last question sort of threw me off, but I still shot back "Why do you care? Your not her mom or anything" So, Isis, with her lightening fast anger problem which added to her already fast movements, grabbed me by the ear and screamed,
…
…
Something reaaaaally bad.
It basically translates into; "Don't tell me you lost her!" (Since the rating for this is low, Malik will refrain from any language!)
So, being the loving, compassionate brother I am, I told her she was at Kaiba's house and that I was going to meet her, along with Bakura and Marik there. Thanks to my many years of practice, Isis bought my lie. So, canceling out my lie with a truth (I'm such a good brother), I told her I was going to call him right now. She said… OKAY!
"Ring…. Ring… ring… ring…this is the Kaiba household- click… ISHTAR!" yells the aggravated voice of the CEO we all know and love. In the next few seconds, he yells into my already red ear about how he had to once again, pick up after me and collect my garbage. I hesitated… what now? Apparently, Mr. I'm-pissed-off-right-now-so-don't-tell-me-to-chill found Charlotte getting killed by Ellis and her evil mutant friends. Great, first day and she just HAD to get in a fight with my ex-girlfriend who happens to hate me, and everyone that has to do with me.
"Hey, Seto, can we come to your house tonight?" I ask.
"Yeah, sure."
"Thanks, just make sure you set the alarm in front of my room incase Marik gets any ideas… like last time…"I shudder to remember Marik's weirdness… I don't know why I put up with him… maybe it's because he is sort of like me… minus his… homosexuality.
Night: At Seto's house. People present- Bakura, Mokuba, Kaiba, Malik, Marik and Charlotte.
Normal POV
Charlotte sat at the fancy dinner table and stared while she drank her glass of orange soda. From behind her, she could here the guys laughing and fighting with each other. She remembered her friends before they moved, before she moved. She was shook from her thoughts by Seto's raven-haired brother, Mokuba.
"Can you get me some more orange soda?" he asked. Charlotte nodded and got up to reach for the orange soda. That aside from water and coffee seemed to be the only drink that occupied the house. Charlotte poured the orange soda until it almost reached to top. As soon as she stopped, Mokuba yelled, "MORE! MORE". The guys in the background became silent but the next moment it erupted in laughter again. Charlotte hesitantly poured in a little more… "MORE!" Mokuba screamed. Charlotte said, "Mokuba, you're going to spill it all over you if I pour you anymore" Mokuba looked like he was about to cry. Quickly Charlotte poured him orange soda until it could hold no a single drop left. Mokuba looked unsatisfied by this but lowered his head to drink from the cup anyway. Charlotte was reminded faintly of a horse.
Meanwhile, Malik, Bakura, Kaiba and Marik were prank calling all the teachers at their school. So far, they've called Mr. Smith to inform him that his bills were overdue and that they added to a total sum of thirteen thousand dollars, Mrs. Williams to explain that her daughter was being held ransom, Ms. Glass to admit their "true love" for her. They were about to dial their history teacher when Malik's cell phone rang. The name displayed on the screen read, Ellis.
Malik's POV
Malik's smile immediately faded as he got up quickly and returned one of Kaiba's guestrooms to answer the call.
"Malik, that girl is living at your house, isn't she." An ice-cold voice asked
"Hey Ellis, it's been a long time since you've called, and to answer your question, yes, Charlotte is staying at my house upon Isis' insistence. You know how she is."
"Shut up Malik, don't give me an excuse. Being the mindless idiot that you are, you're probably thinking nasty thoughts about her right now." Behind the phone, Ellis smirked.
"No I'm not! Ellis, I wouldn't do something like that! Come on, you know me better than this! I would never do that!" Malik protested. Sure, he was a regular guy in tenth grade and he did have hormones, but he was rather offended when Ellis accused him of a crime he didn't commit.
"Well, let me tell you, that girl is just another one of your fans. She is just another rabid fan girl, I can tell. The farther you stray from her, the better… before she turns you rabid too." Ellis replied.
"Okay Ellis, whatever you say. Was there anything else that you had to report to me?" Malik smiled.
"Tomorrow I'm going to kick you're a-"
"I'm just kidding Ellis." Malik said hastily. He wasn't afraid of her, but when the entire boy population at school decided to attack you in an orderly fashion, then the odds change. Also, he wouldn't hurt Ellis no matter how much he seemed to hate her… cause he new that he still loved her.
"Well, I guess that's all you had to tell me… so, bye… I love you" Malik always used that phrase, even after they had broken up.
"Mmmm, and I hate you. G'night. Click" Malik smiled. She didn't really hate him; she just said that to appear "stronger". He hoped she still had feelings for him.
Bakura's POV
That fool. Why'd he go hide in his room when he knows we can still hear him? Ch, his conversation with Ellis can be heard loud and clear contrary to what he believes. As Malik walked back into the living room, his face displayed no expression, but I could tell he was happy. What a loser. No offense, Malik is my friend and everything, but sometimes, he needs a grip on reality. Here are the facts. Ellis does NOT like him. Ellis hates him. Ellis will never like him. Ellis is going out with another guy right now. If he continues to chase after Ellis, he's going to get hurt. Malik is dense.
Marik, also noticing Malik's happy mood also seemed to brighten. After all, as soon as Malik had left, he started heading for me. I, being the smart and awesome King of Thieves I am, punched him in the face before he could get any closer. Normally Marik would have caught my punch before it hit, but since he was semi-drunk, his reflexes were not responding well.
So, after becoming incredibly bored, we watched TV and drank yummy fizzy stuff.
There was nothing to watch, so we decided to go bother Charlotte. Here was our plan. Actually, it was MY plan, but they helped so I give them credit. We were going to pretend we were drunk and grab Charlotte and lock her in a room with all of us. It's really strange how only some of Kaiba's rooms are sound proof and some of them aren't. Oh well, the one on the nearest left is sound proof, so we were going to lock her in there. Then, we would turn off the lights and pin her down. Of course we weren't going to do anything other than that since we only wanted her reaction. Nothing else.
Kaiba's POV
Sometimes my friends are really lame. They are really drunk and they don't really know what they are doing. Usually I need to stay sane for times like these, in case something really happens. At least I'm not wasted yet.
So, as I watch my drunken friends have their fun, I supervise in case something goes wrong. Malik and Bakura sauntered off into the dinner room. I follow them quietly like they instructed.
Charlotte's POV
Malik and Bakura walk up to me. Okay… so weird. They are all smiley and happy. I hope they aren't drunk. Malik sits on my right and Bakura sits on my left. I stare intently at the table. Ignore them and they will ignore you. Ignore them and they will-
"Heeyyy babe. You were looking lonely all by yourself over here so I hope you don't mind if us poor boys join you." Malik smirks at his oh so hilarious joke. I smile a nervous smile.
"Aw, don't be shy." Bakura wrapped his arm around my shoulder. "We're good boys. There is no need to be shy" Suddenly, I felt his hand go up my shirt. Shrieking, I sit upright and tremble at his cold hands. VERY cold hands… please stop… please stop…
"Bakura, please. Stop teasing me." I begged. I didn't really like people touching me.
"Yeah 'Kura. Leave the lady alone. She doesn't like you" Malik pulled me closer to him. For some reason I felt a bit safer, but I was still trembling. Malik must have felt me relax because all of a sudden, he picked me up and threw me into one of Kaiba's empty bedrooms. Bakura, Kaiba and Marik followed him. By now, I was completely freaking out. They were definitely drunk; their breath reeked of alcohol. Deciding there was nobody else to ask for help, I started begging Malik to let me out.
"Malik, please! Don't do this! I don't feel comfortable doing this. Please stop!" my voice came in a choked plead. Bakura seemed to find it funny. He completely ignored my words and flicked the light switch. That's when I totally lost it. Screaming for help it seemed like all these bad things were happening to me at once. I finger was pressed against my lips and I quickly silenced myself. Tears were now streaming down my face and I felt trapped. I wanted out right now. All of a sudden I felt my arms and legs pinned down. My sobs were loud and clear now. I'm pretty sure they knew I was crying. One dark shape shuffled closer and raised his hand. Two loud smacks were heard and I was immediately released. I quickly huddled into the farthest corner of the bed and sat there hugging myself. The lights flickered on to reveal Malik and Bakura sprawled on the floor. Marik was gone and Kaiba was standing over them with an annoyed look on his face. As soon as Malik and Bakura regained consciousness, they started laughing at me.
Laughing at me, right after I thought they were going to rape me or something! WHAT WAS THERE TO LAUGH AT? Now, I stare at them with hatred and confusion and that only results in more laughter. Running out the door, I push past him and retreat to my room.
Malik's POV
Haha, that was great! Hmmm…. Weeee, I like pink fuzzy bunnies! Wooooo… heehee…Charlotte is funny! Funny funny funny! Lala, pink fuzzy bunnies? Hmm, I need chocolate! Pudding! Chocolate pudding!
"Bakura-hick- do you like pink-hick- fuzzy bunnies?" Bakura is staring at me weirdly… stop it Bakura! Stop! WHY DOOES EVERYTONE LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!I didn't do anything! It wasn't me! Lala, oooh… Kaiba's has nice wallpaper.. it's all… white… haha, I wonder what it tastes like… hmmmmmm…. YUM!
"want some Bakura?" Bakura backs away slowly and runs into a very happy Marik.
"Hm, Marik looks like a pink fuzzy bunny from upside down… is he upside down? or am I? What if the whole world is ALWAYS upside down in real life and gravity is opposite from what it REALLY is, like what if the world was upside down! Then we would ALL be upside down! Except for me of course… and I think the people in Antarctica! Hey, I wonder if that's-"
Bakura's POV
Malik is wasted. He gets drunk so fast it makes me drunk and dizzy. Haha, I wonder… can you get dizzy from being drunk? I mean, can you get drunk from being dizzy? I'm going to try! … Woooaaawww, hey…. Look Malik! I can cross my eyes! Malik looks offended… oops, does my stare offend you Mister Joe Schmo fuzzy bunny? DOES IT? 0o why is Malik eating the wall? Why is Kaiba's house falling apart? I think the wall is hurting Malik's stomach. Why is he upside down? Why did I just trip on nothing and land on Marik who is looking too happy right-
Kaiba's POV
Okay, they are BOTH wasted. Bakura and Malik are now sleeping contently on the wooden floor after I kicked them in the head. They are seriously insane.
"So Kaiba, I guess it's just you and me now," but not as insane as THAT psycho. Psh, by the way, how cliché was that. He watches too many cartoons.
"Marik, if you get any ideas, I'll break you neck. Friend or not, your dead the second you touch me."
"Okay…" Even though his strange grin makes me hesitate, I'm glad he-…
THEND!
Heehee, it's… seven pages? Maybe! K! I'm done for today!
Malik- why am I knocked out? Why do I always get to be the one hurt?
Idril- it's a privilege, so quit whining and suck it up.
