If ya think I own Yugioh, I suggest seeing a psychiatrist.
Wow! I have
nothing to say for once! Ok, I do have to say something. Just to clear things
up, I've only been to the hospital when I was born, when I had this weird
disease when I was, like, 2 days old, and twice when I had allergic reactions.
So don't sue me if I get anything wrong about the hospital. Not only that, but
this was actually written back in January (or February. Either way, it was a
long time ago), so if I got anybody wrong, don't get mad at me.
My Loving
Family
"She's
waking up," I heard a male voice right in my face.
I
tensed my right arm, and punched the guy in the face without opening my eyes.
"Oh
my-GAHH! My face!"
My
eyes snapped open, "Ugh! Am I in the hospital?" I saw the doctor
clutching a bloody nose, "Oh! I'm so sorry! I thought you were a rare
hunger!" I glanced around the room, "Where is everybody?"
"We
couldn't identify you," the doctor held a tissue to his nose to stop the
bleeding, "What's your name?"
I
was still tense so I replied, "First, tell me how long I've been in
here."
"Three
days."
"Three
days? Crap!" I thought angrily, "I wasted three days sitting,
unconscious in a stupid hospital!"
"My
name's Hemsut Elizabeth L- I mean, Ishtar," I was still getting used to my
last name, "I'm Chinese American and was recently adopted by Isis Ishtar
from Egypt. Can I have a phone book?"
"Why?"
the doctor was taken aback by everything I had said.
"I
need to find Seto Kaiba's phone number and my mom's too."
He
handed me the phone book and a phone. It took awhile for me to find the
numbers, but then again, I could only use one arm. First, I called home.
"Ishtar,"
a stern voice answered after one ring.
"Caro!"
I was expecting Rishid to be on the phone, "What're you doing at my
house?"
"Hi
Liz! Where are you?! Hey everybody!" she called to everybody else,
"Liz's okay!"
"I
never said that I was okay!" I corrected her, "Actually, I'm in the
hospital and I wanna go home!"
"Never
mind!" Caro yelled, "She's not okay. She's in the hospital and wants
us to pick her up. Wait a sec, what d'ya mean you're in the hospital?!"
"I'll
tell ya later."
"May
Isis-sama talk to Hemsut-sama?" I heard Rishid ask Caro.
"No!
Mine!" Caro was being greedy again.
"Caro,"
I got her attention, "Give the phone to Rishid."
Once
I was sure that Rishid had the phone, I yelled, "I'm not Hemsut-sama! No
Sama! I'm not at a higher ranking family than you!" My voice softened as I
added, "The real reason why you can't call me sama is because we're the
same family now, and I'm younger. I should be calling you sama."
I
was answered by silence. "Hey, Rishid, ya there?" I asked still in a
soft voice, "I know your history. As a baby, the Ishtars adopted you,
and when you were four, you learned about the ritual. When Marik was around
ten, he asked you to take his place for the ritual. You were rejected by
Marik's father and to join the family, you willingly carved your own face
because you couldn't take away Marik's pain, but at least you could share
it."
"How
do you know this?" the question was forced.
I
was getting tired of explaining, "Long story. For now, can I talk to my
mom?"
"Hemsut!"
Isis choked, "Why are you in the hospital? What happened? Was it your
blood on the steps?"
"Um..."
I tried to think of good answer, "It was my blood, and I'm in the hospital
'cause I have no skin on my left arm." "Yeah, great answer,
Liz," I thought sarcastically.
"Oh!
What happened?"
"Uh..."
I hesitated. Even if Marik was behind it, I didn't want him to face the wrath
of the pole. "Mom, I was attacked by some rare hunters." "Oh,
great, I'm so dead!" I screamed mentally.
"MARIK!"
Isis exploded, "What did you do to her!"
"Hey
Lizzie," Marguerite picked the phone up from where Isis had dropped it,
"Mind telling my what happened?"
"Yes,"
I answered, "I don't think it was Marik's fault though."
"Huh?"
"YOU
sent YOUR rare hunters after her, DIDN'T YOU?!" I could here Isis
screaming.
Before
Marguerite could reach for the pole, I said, "Look, just get me home okay,
then I'll explain everything in detail. Or at least, what I dare to tell in
detail."
************
"Give
me my rod!"
I
sighed. Caro, Marguerite, and Isis had cornered Marik and were
"Torturing" him by stealing his millennium rod.
"I
wonder if we should possess Miho," Caro grinned evilly to Isis and
Marguerite.
"NOOOO!"
I
shook my head as I headed for the phone. "We need the other guys to calm
them down," I thought as I dialed the Motos.
************
"C'mon,"
I dragged Yami and Bakura to the kitchen. Of course, they were glaring daggers
at each other.
Marguerite
took one look at Yami and immediately handed the rod to Isis. "Yami!"
she squealed, "Why are you here?"
"I
called him and Bakura over to calm you guys," I rubbed my bandaged arm as
I continued with and innocent/evil grin, "You guys are going on a double
date. I'm tired of Marguerite and Yami coming on so slowly."
"I'm
not going on a double date with the bastard pharaoh," Bakura made his
point clear.
I
glared at him as Marguerite twitched at the "Bastard pharaoh" phrase.
"Well, too bad, 'cause I already got everything ready," I paused for
a little while, "Thanks to Seto."
We
left the house laughing at Yami and Bakura yelling at each other. Caro and
Marguerite weren't letting me stay around Marik, so I had to go with them on
their double date. To tell ya the truth, being a third wheel isn't fun.
('Course, I've never been one, but I'm just guessing.)
I reached into my pocket and felt the cold gold and smiled.
"Tonight is gonna be fun," I thought.

Sorry for getting this chappie cut off before. Ok,
enough said.
Paragraph from next chappie:
I looked up at those cold, purple eyes, trying to
hid my fear. "I can't really answer that, 'cause I'm puzzled too," i
replied, rubbing my arm again, "It's very likely both ways. Technically,
you didn't break your promise even if you did send them, 'cuase you never said
that your rare hunters couldn't hurt me. Did you?"
