"Man..." Said Makoto, sighing. "I was really hoping on finishing that duel..."
"Common, don't be so down, Makoto." Said Ami, eating a ice-cream.
"Yeah..." Said Makoto, taking a bite out of his own ice cream...
A bite that was a bit too big.
"Aaaahhhhh!" He said, dropping it, clutchign his head. "B-brain freeze!" He said, as Ami laughed the whole time.

Sitting at another bench in the park was fifteen-year-old Seigyoku "Sapphire" Odamaki. She leaned against her bench, cushioning the back of her head with her hands, legs folded. She wore a red sleaveless shirt, black shorts, red and white sneakers, and a red bandanna on her head. She had short light brown hair and blue eyes. Sapphire was short for a girl her age, but made up for it with her sturdy body and well-developed bust, which got her mistaken for being as old as eighteen at times.
Sapphire gazed lazily at the scenery before her, relaxed but bored. She wished she had friends to play baseball or football (she was fine with both European and American) with, but she wasn't going to find anyone interested in that.Back in Japan she could count on finding at least a few people who would want to lay with her, but she wasn't in Japan any more—she was in freaking Domino City, an entire landmass dedicated to a card game.
A card game she hated, no less.
Sapphire was extremely lonely in Domino City since very few people her age wanted to be friends with someone who refused to play Yu-Gi-Oh! Her parents encouraged her to just learn to play the lousy game so she wouldn't be so lonely, but Sapphire wasn't one to surrender so easily; if she hated something, that was it. There would be no comprimise, no matter how impractical her stance was.
So it was the greatest of ironies that her most treasured possession was a Yu-Gi-Oh! card deck. She never used it; she didn't even know what the cards themselves looked like inside their container. She just carried the deck around wherever she went, as though it were a good luck charm. In a way it was, bringing her comfort when she thought about the one who previously owned it.
Unconsciously she reached down to stroke the deck in the pocket of her shorts. Something's going to happen today, she thought. I just know it...

In the distance, coming toward that direction, screaming was heard.
"Get back here you brat!" Shouted Makoto, with a anime bruise on his head. "I've had it with you and those rocks!"
"Hahaha!" Laughed the kid, still running, when he started getting tired, he took the skateboard he was using and threw it in the direction Makoto was running, then used the last of his energy to run off....
Of course, Makoto did not notice this.
"Wait until I get my hands on yo- Whoooooooah!" Shouted Makoto, on the skateboard, loosign control, and about to crash into Sapphire.
"Incoming!"

Sapphire let out a dismayed cry when she saw the guy on the skateboard coming toward her. She could dodge that easily, but then the guy would crash right into the bench. There was only one thing she could think of.
Sapphire jumped forward at the guy, arms outstretched. She would slam into him and knock him back to the ground. It would be a little painful perhaps, but it beat hitting a bench.

Then, a jump.
"Oof!" Shouted Makoto, as he fell off the skateboarding, landing by Sapphire's feet, face-down. "ooww...."

"Hey, are you okay?" Sapphire asked the skateboard guy. She looked down at him; he seemed to be her age or around that. She offered her hand to help him get up.

"Thanks." Said Makoto, getting up, then he remmebered. "H-hey!" He shouted down the past, only to see the kid was way to far away for him to catch him, immediatly a anger vein appeared. "I'm gonna kill that kid someday, I swear...." He said, then sighed. "Never seen you before... I'm Makoto." Said Makoto introducing hinmself, smiling.

Sapphire smiled back, although even she was a little surprised by the boy's forwardness in not giving his full name. "It's nice to meet you, Makoto," she said, feeling awkward to call a guy she just met by his personal name. "I'm Seigyoku Odamaki."

"So, erm, Makoto," Sapphire began, "what happened there? Did you just lose control of your skateboard?"

Post by ShadowSora94 on Mar 5, 2009 16:41:02 GMT -5
"No." Said Makoto. "That little kid -did you see him?- likes throwing rocks at my head. I tried chasing him down, and then he threw that skateboard to probably throw me off."

Sapphire shrugged. "I didn't see the kid, but I think I heard him. Sorry I can't help you any more than that."
She looked Makoto up and down a little. He's really well-dressed. Who is he really?
She put her hands behind her head. "So Makoto," she asked, "were you having fun here before?"

"Yeah!" He said, his deck-box hanging on a strap on his belt. "I was in a duel a little while ago... then it got cut off when our Duel Disks stopped working for a bit." He said. "Weird..."

Sapphire felt disapointed. Sure, she knew it was pointless to hope there were some non-duelists in Domino City, but she just kept hoping to mee someone—anyone who felt like she did.
"So, you're a duelist, huh?" she said flatly. "Okay."
She brightened a little. "But since your disk thing's broken, maybe we can do something fun together? Like some baseball or basketball or football or racing...How does that sound?"

"Hmm... Okay!"
"Hey!" Cried out a voice, running toward them. "Slow down... Makoto..." Said Ami, stopping for a second to catch her breath.
"Oh yeah." Said Makoto to Saphire. "This is my friend, Ami!"

"Oh, you have a friend already."
Sapphire smiled at the new girl, Ami. "Hey, I'm Seigyoku Odamaki! Nice to meet you!"

Sapphire listened as politely as she could, but she was bored nearly to tears, hearing an explaination of things she didn't understand. The only part that made sense to her was the mention of the power outage. What caused that anyway?
"Wow, that's some story," she said. "I guess Yu-Gi-Oh! is some really serious business, huh? I mean, that Axel guy wanted to burn someone's cards? What a jerk." It always amazed her how insane those games could get. It was like there was some spell put on everyone but her that made people crazy. Still, the though of someone intentionally damaging the deck he gave her—the deck she had promised to take care of and treasure—made her feel sick.
If someone threatened to burn my deck I'd kick his ass so hard it'd fly through the top of his head.

"Yeah!" Said Makoto, agreeing.
"That outage was so weird though... and it wasn't just the disk, it looked like it hit the whole city." Said Ami, with her fingers at her chin. "Oh well."

"well... I don't have any plans." Said Makoto. "Do you, Ami?"
"Nope."

Sapphire didn't want to push herself onto Makoto and Ami, but she was feeling pretty lonely. "Is there anything you'd like to be doing about now?" she asked.

"Ummm... Guess a movie sounds nice... what do you guys think?"
"Sure." Said Ami, smiling.

Sapphire hadn't been paying attention to what was being shown at the movies lately. She was probably missing out on a lot of good stuff. "What's there to see?" she asked. "I like action flicks with a lot of explosions or kung fu!"

"Let me check." Said Ami, taking out her cell phone to get online to see. "Darn connection speed..."
"So..." Said Makoto, trying to make conversation. "Did you grow up from around here?"

"I grew up in Japan," Sapphire said. "My family moved to Domino City a few years ago because of a company transfer." She sighed. "I'm pretty bored here because I don't duel."

A young slim boy with black hair and blue eyes walked into the movie theater. 'I really need to get this off my mind. What I'm doing better be worth what I'm spending here.' he looked around a bit in an almost paranormal way. A guy with long hair and shades, a hefty man and woman, a couple of kids, three anonymous teenagers talking to each other.
The boy sighed in relief. "Good, I'm all alone here." he whispered to himself.

Meanwhile...
"Well, there is a pretty actiony drag racing movie going on..." Said Ami.
"Sweet!" Said Makoto.
"Just one little thing..."
"What?"
"We're gonna have to sprint as fast as we possibly can right now to make it."
