Mistress: This chapter is to introduce Yumi Motou a bit more. It has a few flashbacks (that you will be notified of) and present time. There will also be the same scene as in chapter 3 where Yumi and the boys meet but from her POV or……uhm…yeah something like that. -___-;;
Apologies for delay in updates! I am very into yugioh right now so all yu yu hakusho stories are going VERY slowly. In fact I have a writers block on most. If you have no idea what I am talking about you are probably a mediaminer reader, (visit ff.net under the name animefreak54 to read the others)
We are also in the process of moving to our new house and many of you know. We've also got Taks and Exams coming up and if I want to get into GT I better do good. ( and improve my grammar)
Oh yeah and THANXIES to all reviewers! This is chapter wasn't supposed to be out for a few more weeks but ^__^ you guys are so GREAT! ^_^ I hope you still find this story entertaining.
- head is spinning -
I'm gonna go lay down now….
Bold is Flashbacks
Chapter 5: The Gun
Another day has arrived, and although it is bright out I keep my windows closed. There is a strong wind coming in and I'm afraid I'd get sick too quickly. I wrap the maroon blanket around myself and pull out our book. I place my pale hand on it and smile softly. Even with my bad hearing I can tell you've just entered my house. I sit up and brush of the blanket slightly. There is no need to worry you. I smile brightly as you walk in…but your hands are behind your back. I question you and you hand me something. It is a plate of cookies that are shaped like hearts with pink cream on top of it. It is wrapped it plastic and laying on the thing is a hand made thank you card. If I had tears left I would weep. I thank you and you blush. I smile and motion to a green cushion for you to sit on. Quickly rushing over to it, you wait eagerly for me to begin…and I do.
“Here's your sign,” was heard through a room followed by uncontrolled laughter.
Looking into the room nothing unusual was seen. The walls of the room were dark blue, on the ceiling was the constellation is silver and on the wall where the black bed was located was the Zodiac. To the right of that was a window with a bookcase next to it. On the book case there were books such as “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”, “ArtemisFowl”, “TeenGoddess”, “Teen Witch”, and “Vampire Kiss.”
The lights in the room were off and the Tv screen was the only source of illumination. At the center of the room were two large blue bean bags. In them were three teens. The one furthest to the right was a girl. She had golden locks and blue eyes which were outline in black eyeliner. She wore a short leather skirt and purple fishnet socks that reached her thighs. She also wore a Green Day Sweatshirt.
Next to her was a boy. He had short, spiked back hair with dark purple streaksand his eyes were a sexy dark brown. He wore black loose jeans and a black shirt with “I'm a victim of parental supervision” written on it. He had his arm loosely wrapped around the third person who has her head on his chest.
Her hair was long and raven black, apart from the ruby bangs and dark pink outline. Her eyes were a misty azure and were outlined in black. She wore a huge black shirt that went to her knees. The only other piece of clothing visible was the white socks that covered her feet.
This scene may seem innocent enough but in truth was very misplaced. First you have to know who these people are. The first one to be introduced is Nialy Voskwitch, the boy is Seth McKaren, and the last one was Yumi Sakura. The word was is used because her new name is Yumi Motou or should I say her new old name. (A/N if that makes any sense)
Yumi's parents had died only a few weeks before. Cause of death, unknown. Her father and step mother were both gone and she hadn't shed one tear. In fact she was laughing in the arms of her boyfriend, Seth. However, her laughter would soon be drowned out in yells as Seth's mother knocked on the door.
“Come in!” Seth yelled while giving Yumi a loving squeeze.
“Yumi baby, I need to talk to you downstairs,” Mrs. McKaren said in the soft mother tone that Yumi had grown so fond of, “I'll be downstairs.”
Yumi looked worried for the first time in months. She flashed a nervous glance at her two best friends.
“Don't worry,” Seth said giving Yumi a soft kiss on her cheek.
“I'll try,” Yumi said hugging him tight.
“Come on bitch, you have nothing to worry about. We're here remember?” Nilay said softly punching Yumi in the arm.
“I feel so much better,” Yumi said while rollingher eyes.
Even with the reassuring words from her best friend and boy friend she couldn't help but feel like she had some changes coming her way. And how right she was.
Yumi sat in the lounge kicking at the ground. Her ride had yet to show. She took out her CD player again and changed the CD to Linkin' Park. Yumi leaned back in the plastic green chair and thought back to the moment she and her best friends had said good bye. There had been tears, promises of always waiting, and kisses.
She sighed and looked at the watch at the top of the creamy white wall. 2:45, and still no ride. Just as Yumi was about to walk over to the pay phone and call a Taxi someone came yelling her name.
“IS THERE A MISS YUMI MOTOU HERE?!”
She turned around, as did everyone else in the terminal, and saw a man in a black suit running towards her. Yumi slowly raised her hand and called out , “I'm Yumi Motou!”
Everyone grew silent. While walking toward the man she heard small parts of the conversations of the people surrounding her.
“Oh my goodness that is Motou?”
“Mommy why does she look dead?”
“Look at what she is wearing!”
“Ugh she is a freak”
“THAT is a Motou? Oh my lord”
Instead of bowing down in shame like many people did she lifted her head and flicked off crowd.
“I highly suggest you shut the fuck up before I make you,” she said in a threatening tone.
Her voice vibrated through the terminal and echoed back to her. Slowly the people went back to what they were doing and Yumi was led to the limo that was waiting for her.
“WHAT!” Yumi yelled staring at the man before her with wide eyes.
“Yumi calm down please,” Miss McKaren said gently placing her hands on Yumi's shoulders.
“I know this may seem strange,” the man started to explain.
“STRANGE! You're fucking moving me in back with my mom and my brother and some strange bastard! Not only that but to JAPAN!” Yumi screeched in outrage.
“Yumi, please calm down and listen,” Miss McKaren said petting Yumi's pale hand.
“Your transportation has been paid for already. You will leave in a week,” the man said standing up and leaving.
As she watched the man leave for the first time in years she broke down crying. More tears flooded her eyes as she was pulled into the warm, familiar embrace of Seth.
She was pulled out of her memory as the limo jerked and stopped in front a huge house. Yumi almost gagged. No doubt her mother had done something with her life and most likely her family was full of popular, crazy, social life crazed preps. She watched sadly as the cab driver helped her out of the car. `Stupid fucking bastards. This is going to be hell' was the phrase that ran through her mind as she walked up the steps after the man.
“Everyone this is Yumi Sakura but as of recently Yumi Moto,” she heard a man announce inside the house.
Yumi took a deep breath and moved through the door. What she saw proved her suspicions trued. The boys did look like preps, her brother especially. No she didn't remember much of him but of what little she did, this wasn't it. Next to him were two other guys. Most likely popular as well.
“You said Yumi Motou,” Yami stated looking squarely at the man she presumed to be her new step-dad.
“Ah yes…well certain…circumstances have left her in our care,” Mr. Motou said carefully while glancing at Yumi.
“She will be sleeping in you room for now Yami, oh and tomorrow I had better find you at school, Yumi will be joining you there as well,” Mrs. Motou said after embracing Yumi.
She saw Yami nod and send a pleading glance at his friends. The two left quickly. Yami sighed and looked at Yumi once again. She watched as Yami motioned for her to follow him. So she did…
I close the book once again and smile. I tell you that you will like the next chapter. Immediately you begin to question what happens in the next chapter. I, however, reveal nothing. You playfully glare at me and then stand up suddenly as you see what time it is. Thanking me for the chapter I read today you rush out the door.
AUTHROS BLAH BLAH
Man, this chapter was so difficult to write and I reeeeallly think it sucked. Sucked bad. T__T I know someone is cussing me out right now. -___-;; oh well. ^_^
I think I need to explain something about the room. That is Yumi's room but it's in Seth's house. They've been friends forever so they have their own rooms in each others houses. And after Yumi's parents died she moved in with Seth so yeah…
I have written my first lemon! I haven't published it yet but it's in the 4th chapter to Slowly Sinking And No One To Save me. ^////^ I just hope I didn't screw it up.
REVIEWS WILL BE REWARDED WITH ……………………..WELL SOMETHING! ^__^
