Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ I Only Have Eyes, For You ❯ Fattest Rabbit ( Chapter 3 )
Thanks for reviewing!!! It cancelled the horrid day when I wrote this chapter. This story is getting VERY mixed reviews…
Yamibunny: Loser.
Cosmobunny: Damn you. I didn't mean that in a hurted way.
Yamibunny: Look…the computer underlined "hurted," I don't think it's a word.
Cosmobunny: *sarcastically* what a genius.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh… pfft… if I did, I wouldn't have to write disclaimers…
And the reason I state almost everyone's age is because… grownups ALWAYS ask for them…
Yami isn't Pharaoh yet!
~chapter three: fattest rabbit~
Yami sat in his seat the remainder of the journey, and their conversation didn't continue.
They were there sooner than Yami thought. Once again, the servant came and escorted Yami and Talibah down and exposed them to the dusty winds around the time of sunset. Talibah, having just awoken, threw her arms about randomly against the wind.
This time the Beneribs and the Pharaoh's family walked up the stairs and pounded the door. A servant opened the door slowly and once all were inside, the same scene happened, and the pharaoh walked around the room, giving everyone permission to get up. Kamuza's house was the same size, but the interior was different, him being a doctor and not a merchant.
Kosey Siamen walked in, and smiled at the group before him. Yami shivered. He never really liked Siamen. The first thing that got to Yami was his unusual laugh and the way he awaited Yami for his check-up with excessive enthusiasm. (Think Pegasus, both looks and the way he acts.) Siamen flipped back his silvery hair.
"Welcome, pharaoh." Then his family walked forward and Kamuza introduced them.
"This is my wife, Monifa." Monifa was a round lady, with nice black hair, even silkier looking than Talibah's. She was carrying a small child, who was asleep on her shoulder.
Siamen giggled his eccentric giggle and pointed at the small child. "This is our three year old, Sagira." He whispered.
He step back next to a girlish looking boy and a girl, both looked very similar, but the boy had silvery-white hair and the girl had black hair. They were obviously twins. "These are the twins, eleven, Zesiro (hmm…mini Talibah)," he patted the girl's head, "and Sefu (Tanned Ryou-like)," he patted the boy's head.
"And here's, Nemma! Who has one-third of a chance to become the next queen!" He made a silent gesture that indicated cheering.
The pharaoh gave a barely audible, nervous chuckle.
Not introduced yet was most gigantic rabbit that Yami has ever seen. Her hair was nice, like her mother's, but she was also very…round, like her mother, and unlike her mother and anyone else, her front teeth were huge. She held her hand out to Yami, as though expecting him to kiss it or bow over it. Yami didn't know what to do, he looked up from her hand and gave a smile of uncertainty.
"Isn't she a doll?" Siamen chirped, giving her a one armed hug.
The pharaoh laughed politely. "How old are you my dear?"
"Sixteen, my pharaoh." She smiled, revealing her front teeth even more. Her voice was sweet and had some tinge of bossiness and seduction.
"Just like Talibah, and you're one year younger than Yami."
Nemma looked at Talibah, her smile remained, but this time it seemed pasted on. As if the rest of her face was conveying another emotion. Certainly not friendliness.
Then after everyone introduced them selves to Siamen's family, Kamuza spoke up again, "you are staying for the night, am I correct?"
"Yes, Kamuza." The queen said.
"Ok, my servants shall show you to your chambers."
Yami's family separated with Talibah's. They were lead to a room, in which they shall all share, along with Halima, who was Yami's nurse. And the servants of the individual family members, the rest of their servants, including the other family's would sleep in the servant's quarters, with Kamuza's servants.
They left for their things to be unpacked. Then went to join the others in the dining hall. Their dinning hall was slightly smaller than the Benerib's. The seaters sat everyone in a spot. There were visible portions of food missing in most of the dishes. And as usual, Yami's father wanted to know all about Neema. But she didn't show up, and no one asked where she was.
Then Yami asked. "Where's Neema?"
Her mother jumped, as if she didn't expect Yami could talk. "She's in her room, she's not hungry."
"Oh." Yami got up to use the pit. (No idea what they called bathrooms back then, I'll just refer to the bathroom as "pit")
"Don't go into Neema's room." Monifa called after him.
Yami finished his business and walked back to the dining room, on his way there, he noticed Neema's door was ajar. He hesitated, and then realized he didn't actually have to go into her room. He peeked into it. There sat Neema, stuffing herself, the remains of the missing portions of food around her. She swiped up the fowl and stuffed it in her mouth and smiled contently, with nothing left to eat, she patted her mouth daintily with a piece of cloth and made sure there was nothing around her mouth or on her teeth. Then she started for the door.
Yami looked around and ran back a few paces and pretended to be walking by, Neema opened the door and saw Yami. She smiled another version of one of her smiles.
Yami smiled as well. "Why weren't you at dinner?"
"I wasn't hungry. I never am. Mother worries about how little I eat." She tilted her head sweetly. She seemed to be challenging Yami. As though she believed Yami knew where she really was, but deep down inside, she wasn't sure. "Do you like me?"
"Well, I don't know you so well yet. Why don't you tell me more about yourself, do you ever eat? People need to eat to survive, you know."
Now she had her pasted smile again. "Let's go see the others." They walked to the dining room to find dinner already over. The grown-ups were all talking together, Talibah was sitting next to them. She was partly into their conversation on weather. Yami looked around and saw Akila, Urbi, and Nathifa playing together, and Sefu had taken Teremun outside into the yard, accompanied by a servant. He and Neema sat in the group with the adults.
The rest of the evening went slowly, Yami's mind drifted and soon the voices became no more. He noticed that his head was nodding and his mother caught her son's arm. "Yami, are you alright?" She looked worried, everybody looked worried.
"I'm fine. I think I'll tuck in early."
"Alright then," she kissed Yami's forehead, "sweet dreams."
Yami waved to everyone and started for his room. He opened the door and found two servants already sleeping. He took the bed closest to the window and lay on his bed for a while. So far, he thought, I would rather marry Talibah. But I wouldn't want her running off to be free. Then he thought about Neema, I guess she's all right, he thought, she just tries to hard and, she seemed untrustworthy. He turned around and fell asleep.
He was walking in that same place where his last dream took place, in the compartment before he meet Talibah. There were fruit stalls and foreign items for sale. And crowds gathered in bunches. For some reason (dreams are always weird) he immediately walked to one crowd, bunch around a dancer, the same dancer that got swallowed by the sky with him in his last dream. She smiled at Yami. Yami tried to seek out her features, he could see her, but could not comprehend her features. He tried harder and the crowds vanished and a storm broke out showering pebbles onto them.
Yami sat up quickly, drenched in cold sweat, he looked around and saw that he had been sleeping for some time already. His family and some servants were already sleeping in their beds. He lowered his loud breathing into deep silent breaths. He shivered, his body felt cold. Then he closed his eyes and buried his hands in his face, trying to recall what the dancer looked liked. She had short hair, and she had the same eye color as Seth. Yami remembered that Seth had blue eyes. He felt silly, trying to recall things in a dream. But he had it twice, and he believed it was more than a fluke. He was emersed in his thoughts when he looked around and saw that there were pebbles on his bed.
Then someone threw more pebbles though the window, and some hit him. He looked out side, hoping to see who he thought it was.
~end chapter~
Cosmobunny: Huzzah! Wasn't that a nice way to end the chapter?
Yamibunny: You know, people don't like cliffies. And what's with the huzzah?
Cosmobunny: I saw it in the social Studies book. I think it used to mean hooray. Who do you think it is?
Yami: I'll give you a hint, the person threw pebbles through the window.
Yamibunny: Like THAT helps.
Cosmobunny: I know who it is, and if you want to find out, you had better review!
