Sailor Moon Fan Fiction / Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ What If? ❯ Chap. 4 ( Chapter 4 )

Hello peoples! I'm back!

Aerix: After a year of nothingness (on FF.net, anyway). That's kind of pathetic, if ya ask me.

I didn't ask you, did I?

Aerix: As your muse, I'm allowed to add my two cents whenever I feel like it.

It says that where?

Aerix: The Muse Handbook.

*suspicious glance* Really? How come I didn't know about it?

Aerix: `Cause you're not the muse here.

….I see. Methinks I'm just going to ignore you and start the fic.

//…// Yami to Hikari

/…/ Hikari to Yami

<…> Usagi speaking telepathically

Usagi groaned softly and cracked an eye open, almost instantly realizing that the sun was trying to blind her. She clenched her eyes shut and swore softly under her breath. `Where the hell am I? I made sure that my hotel room did not have a clear view of the sun a 6:00 AM!'

A few moments later, she tentatively opened her eyes again and made sure not to look at the bright orb that was oh-so-desperately trying to rob her of sight. Then, it happened.

She inhaled sharply and bit down on her tongue as an onslaught of pain washed over her. `Holy shitake mushrooms! What happened?!' A few minute later, after realizing that her tongue was now bleeding, memories of a very cocky tomb robber and a big explosion flooded back. "…Oh. Ow!"

"Hello, baka!" a cheerful voice sang from somewhere in the room. Usagi blinked, noticing with surprise that a silver haired pigtailed teen was sitting on her legs. She started to wonder why she didn't feel anything before noticing that the girl was transparent.

"Who are you?" The girl rolled her eyes.

"Serenity, of course. Who else would be kind enough to visit you right after you attempted to blow everything up?" Usagi scowled at her, but only gained a headache from it.

"If I had wanted to blow everything up, I would have."

"No, you wouldn't," Serenity stated smartly. "You can't and won't. You may not admit it, but you like being alive, even if you're really stupid and have a habit of trying to kill yourself every other day."

"…I'm not stupid."

"Right. So how's life?" Usagi glared at her again.

"I nearly blew myself. Life is NOT fun right now." Serenity shrugged.

"I can relate. I recall once irritating High Priest Seto and that baka tomb robber to the point where I had to hide in the servants' quarters for nearly three hours." Usagi flushed, remembering the incident. "I thought it was all clear, and snuck out, just in time for Seto to clobber me with that needlessly heavy golden rod thingy."

"…I remember that…Ouch?" Serenity nodded.

"Major ouch. So ya wanna know what you did to yourself?"

"…Humor me."

"Okay!" Serenity started listing injuries off her fingers. "You broke an arm, have several pretty stitches, and fractured several ribs." Usagi groaned softly.

"I hate me. What did I do to everyone else?" Serenity smirked.

"Baka is now sporting three broken ribs, has a long gash on his forehead, and several bruises. Ryou-"

"Who?"

"His hikari."

"Hikari?" Serenity rolled her eyes again.

"'Member the Millennium items?" Usagi nodded. "Baka is the spirit of the ring. Mr. High and Mighty Pharaoh is stuck in the puzzle."

"Oh."

"So anyway, Ryou has the same exact injuries as him. That really scared the nurses when he came in twenty minutes later, looking like Baka's twin in every single way except for the spiky hair and creepy eyes. The same thing happened to Yami," she paused, sending Usagi an evil look. "No interruptions. Anyway, Yami and Yuugi, his hikari, only had to get stitches. The creepy blonde, though…" She trailed off, snickering softly. "He was only knocked out, but when he came to, he had to be sedated `cause he was screaming at the top of his lungs. Then his yami came out and nearly gave a nurse a heart attack."

"…I see. That would have been fun to watch." Serenity shook her head with exasperation.

"Was I like this in the past?"

"You mean easily amused, rather stupid, and having a habit of getting into trouble that tends to leave you sore and painful the next day? If so, then yes."

"…Oh yeah. Before I forget, `Kaasan wanted me to tell ya a few things. One, don't try to blow anyone up anymore. Two, she has the Millennium Eye thingy right now. Three, according to her, Peggy ought to be at least somewhat conscious sometime next week." She blanched. "I feel so sorry for him." Usagi nodded, agreeing.

"I know. A knife in the eye doesn't sound pleasant." She suddenly blinked, noticing for the first time that a nurse was standing in the doorway with a tray of food, or something that smelled like food. "Breakfast?" The nurse nodded, eying her strangely.

"Who were you talking to?"

"Myself!" the blonde said brightly. "Who else is in here?" The nurse raised an eyebrow and set the tray down on the stand next to her bed.

"I see. May I ask what you're talking about?"

"Just how it would be painful to have an eye cut out." The eyebrow went up a little further.

"…Okay…I think I'll just leave now…"

Usagi snickered as the lady left, muttering something about this generation of kids being loonier than the last. "True, true," was Serenity's only response.

"So what do I do now?" The princess shrugged.

"No clue. Oh, there's one more thing I should probably tell you. `Kaasan's debating on whether or not to bring the senshi over. After all, it's been proven that you obviously can't take care of yourself." Usagi's eyes narrowed.

"I can't take care of myself, huh?"

"Well, you are the blonde here. Blonde's are known to be a little…well…dumber than most."

"…You are going to be in pain. Soon. I don't know how, or when, but I will get you back and you'll regret it." Serenity blew her a raspberry.

"I doubt it." She hopped off the bed and onto the floor, grinning broadly. "I have to go now. Ya know, torment Baka and the Pharaoh, see if there's anyone else who I didn't like who's still around, the norm. Ciao!" She was gone with a small `pop', leaving the abused blonde bunny to her breakfast.

Usagi peeked cautiously around the corner, making sure that the coast was clear before continuing on. She crept around into the other hall slowly, trying as hard as she possible could to keep anyone from hearing her.

"You'd make a terrible thief, ya know. I could hear you all the way down the hall." She jumped, wincing as she jarred an injury, and turned around to glare at Bakura.

It was like a game, trying to get as far as the lobby of the hospital before anyone spotted her. It had never happened, after two continuous days in a row of trying to sneak out. Each and every time, Bakura, a nurse, or a doctor managed to catch her, and it was starting to get more than a little irritating.

"I'm not going to sink as low as you," she said, sticking her nose in the air haughtily. "Who says I want to be a thief?" Bakura smirked, looking for all the world like there was nothing wrong with him, even though he had a bandage wrapped tightly around his forehead, as well as numerous fractured ribs.

"Who would want to be some sort of stuck-up royalty?"

"Well, me, obviously, and Serenity, I guess, and then there's that Yami person who I don't seem to remember very well, and-"

"I get the picture. You can shut up now." Usagi fixed him with what she hoped was an icy glare before stalking down the hall, ignoring the fact that the sudden movements jarred her bones, therefore causing more pain. It was slowly abating, though, due to her Lunarian blood, but she still hurt.

She muttered his hated nickname as she went past, earning a glare that was several times icier than hers. Usagi grimaced a little, but retained her haughty smirk. `Just pretend that he doesn't exist, and all will be well…Hell, why can't he just stay dead so he won't exist, period?'

"Hello!" Usagi jumped, nearly walking into the person in front of her. It was, of course, none other than Serenity. "What's Baka doing here?"

Bakura growled as he glowered at her. "What do you want?" Serenity shrugged.

"I was bored. And stop scowling at me!" she snapped. "I know you would like to see me decapitated, but that won't be happening any time soon."

The former tomb robber whirled around and made to storm off, only to realize that the same nurse who was now convinced that Usagi was crazy was standing there. "…I'll be going now."

"Good idea."

"Me too?"

"Even better." The two sighed in unison and Bakura turned around again, walking in the same direction that Usagi was now going.

"Stupid bossy woman…"

"Yeah. Does she think she's our mother or something?" Serenity snickered softly, realizing that they had just agreed on something.

`The universe must be coming to an end. Those two never got along.'

Apparently, at that moment, the same thing ran through their heads, because the two looked at each other like they were quite possible the most disgusting thing on Earth. "I can't believe you just agreed with me!" Usagi shrieked.

Bakura winced, once again glaring at her. "Keep your voice down, woman. You're going to make someone go deaf one of these days. `Sides, you agreed with me, not vice versa."

"Fine, believe what you want."

"I will."

"You two are so childish! But you know," Selenity started, grinning slyly, "Fighting like that only proved that you like each other."

"WHAT!?"

"I hate the dumb blonde!"

"Dumb blonde? If anyone here is dumb, it you!" Usagi suddenly smirked, fighting down on the sudden blood flow to her cheeks. "Everyone knows that you like Hota-chan." He got ready to pounce, so she shrieked again and hid in her room, which they had just walked past. "It's true! You can't deny it!"

Bakura scowled darkly and refrained from kicking the door down. "I do not like that skinny brat," he mumbled, blushing nonetheless.

Serenity rolled her eyes. "I doubt it's very healthy to keep lying to yourself like that. Who knows, you might implode or something." She suddenly cocked her head, the grin once again in place. "I'll take my leave now. I don't think watching you explode from the inside out would be very fun to watch."

This time, he did kick the door, only to realize that, aside from the fact that he left a sizeable dent, all he had on his feet was a pair pf blue socks with odd looking snowflakes on the bottom.

A second nurse, who had just walked into the hall, watched him hop around on one foot, swearing loudly in both Japanese and Egyptian. "Kids these days…Definitely more interesting than the last generation, though," she said, smiling to herself.
