……………………………….Chapter 1:The Pawn Shop & The Bracelet………………………..
You slowly walked home, your long black hair swaying behind you. You sighed, pulling out your deck and thumbing through it. Your deck was mainly Dragon-based, since you loved dragon cards. You even had 3 Blue-Eyes-White Dragons and one Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon. They were only a few of your favorites. Looking up from your deck, you spotted a pawnshop that you were sure was never there before. 'Maybe they just moved in,' you thought. You were about to continue on when something told you to go inside to have a look around. "Guess it wouldn't hurt to check it out," you said, as you shrugged and went in. It was a pretty normal looking pawnshop, with TVs, stereos, DVDs, VCRs, DVD players, instruments, and various types of jewelry. Going up to the glass counter, you looked through it at all the jewelry. Only one piece of jewelry seemed to catch your eye. It was a golden-chained charm bracelet, with a dragon charm, a pyramid charm, a phoenix charm, and a wolf charm. It seemed to be Egyptian, though you weren't sure.
An old man appeared behind the counter and tapped you on the shoulder, startling you out of your reverie. "Could I help you with something Miss?" the old man asked politely. You pointed to the charm bracelet. "Could you tell me about the bracelet?" you asked curiously. The old man opened the back of the glass cabinet and pulled it out, setting it gently on top of the glass counter. "This bracelet is about 10,000 years old. It was found in Egypt in 1952, when they were excavating the Great Pyramids of Giza. I've been looking for someone to give it to, someone who took an interest in it. Do you want it?" he asked, surprising you. You looked at him, slowly nodding your head. "Yes, I would like to have it. I know it sounds weird but…I feel like I'm drawn to it," you said. The old man nodded. "Yes. That means that the bracelet found its rightful owner. You can have it, free of charge. But I must warn you. If you wear the bracelet, it will start the adventure of your life. Are you up to it?" he asked seriously.
You nodded, still in a slight daze from looking at the bracelet. "Then take it and go," he said. Nodding, you took the bracelet and exited the shop. Once you were outside, you slipped the bracelet on your right wrist and watched in amazement as it seemed to shrink until it was snug against your wrist, only loose enough for the charms to dangle freely. You were startled when a lone wolf pup, so small that he was only the size of a small cat, jumped out of the bushes across the road, straight into the middle of the street. The sound of a semi coming down the street to your left pushed you into action. Without thought, you dashed into the road and grabbed the wolf pup, just as the semi crested the hill. The last thing you remembered was pain, and a strange blue light coming form the dragon charm on your bracelet, then everything went black. [1]
……………………………………………………………………………………
Before you even opened your eyes, all you felt was pain. Groaning, your eyes fluttered open, meeting a bright ray of sunshine. Squinting your eyes, you waited for them to adjust to the light before opening them fully. Looking around where you lay, you saw that you were in a clearing in a forest, and there, sitting right next to you, was the wolf pup that you saved. He was a beautiful snow white, with dark golden eyes. When he saw that you were awake, he yelped happily and began to lick your face. It stung, obviously from cuts, but you let it go. You started to laugh, but it turned into a groan as a wave of pain washed over you. The semi. That truck did this to you. But as you looked at the pup, you knew he would've surely gotten killed if you hadn't taken the hit. To be honest, you didn't even know why you were still alive. Most people would have died getting hit by a CAR. You got hit by a SEMI. Now that you looked back, you remembered the blue light from the bracelet. You winced as you slowly raised your shaking arm infront of your face. Yep. The bracelet was still there. You sighed in relief and heavily dropped your arm to your side. You began to notice that something about you was different. Slowly but surely, you pulled yourself into a sitting position. Instantly, you knew that you could do no more than that. Looking around you, you noticed that everything seemed to be animated, like in an anime. You hadn't noticed at first because you were in too much pain. Then you noticed something else. You had a wolf tail. It was silver streaked with green-blue. Knowing that tails usually came with a pair of ears, you felt the side of your head. Your ears were gone! You then felt the top of your head. Your hand came in contact with a soft, fuzzy, triangular shaped wolf ear. You were right, though you didn't know what color it was because you had no mirror. Dropping your hand back into your lap, you called to the wolf pup. He was your only hope of finding help. He came as obediently as if he was being called by his mother. When he was settled into your lap, you began to stroke him. "Ok boy, I need your help. But before you go, I'll name you. Hm….I think I'll call you Kiba, since you look exactly like Kiba off of Wolf's Rain. How does that sound?," you asked. Kiba howled happily. "Good. Now, I need you to find me some help. I'm too badly injured to get it myself. Only look for someone who is nice and kind. You should be able to tell with your senses. Now hurry, okay?," you asked Kiba, as you gently pushed him off your lap. Kiba howled in response, then turned around and dashed out of the clearing. He seemed to understand you perfectly. Once he disappeared from view, you laid back down, as the waves of pain seemed to intensify. 'Hurry Kiba…,' you thought.
…………………………………….With Kiba…………………………………………
Kiba followed his nose and it led him out of the forest and into a huge clearing. He could see buildings and knew that people like his mum would be there. He followed the scent of one that seemed promising. As he rounded the corner of a white building, he saw him. He had a brown hat on, black hair, and one green-blue eye showed. The other was bandaged, hidden from view. On his back, in a specially designed backpack, was a huge female crocodile, and he wore a cream button–up shirt with a dark brown vest and black pants with light brown boots. Scampering up to him, Kiba pawed at his pants, whining and whimpering. The boy looked down at him and his eyes softened. "What's wrong little fella?," he asked. Kiba ran a little away from him and then ran back, showing him that he wanted him to follow him. The boy seemed to get the idea. "You want me to follow you? Alright then, lead the way little fella," he said, gesturing with his hand. Kiba barked happily and started back where he came, so fast that the boy had to run to catch up. When Kiba saw you again, you were lying on your back like before; only he noticed that something was off. Your breathing was rapid and shallow. Kiba whimpered as he nuzzled and licked your face. You opened your eyes at the contact and saw Kiba, and right behind him, was Jim Cook, from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX! You were in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX world! So that's what the old man meant by adventure! Ignoring that fact for now, you whimpered as another wave of pain washed over you. Jim let Shirley off of his back as he knelt beside you and Kiba.
You had long silver hair, with blue-green streaks, a silver wolf tail with blue green streaks, silver wolf ears, and golden eyes. Jim had never seen someone with wolf ears and a tail before. He decided to ignore that for now; he would ask you about it later. Jim surveyed your wounds. You were banged up pretty bad. You had a nasty vertical cut over your left eye, two large gashes on your torso and several smaller ones on your arms and legs. You also had a gash on your head, causing your hair to become matted with blood and an uncountable number of smaller cuts and bruises all over your body. As gently as he could, Jim picked you up bridal style. Once he had you situated, he told Shirley to stay there until he got back, then he took off running, Kiba at his heels. He ran all the way to the infirmary, earning him strange looks from onlookers. As soon as he got there, he handed you to the doctor, who ignored your ears and tail and took you straight to the ER. By now you had completely passed out and was under anesthesia. Jim told Kiba that he'd be back in a few minutes and rushed out the door. A few minutes later, he returned with Shirley on his back. Letting Shirley down so he could sit. He took a chair in the waiting room. Kiba curled up at his feet.
………………………………………….4 Hours Later……………………………………………
The doctor stepped out of the ER room and wiped the sweat from her brow. "Whew. Good thing you brought her to me on time. Ten minutes more and she would've been beyond my reach. Do you know who she is?," asked the doctor. Jim shook his head. "All I know is that this little guy," he pointed to Kiba,"came and got me. She must've sent him for help." The doctor nodded. "Well, you can see her if you want. She won't be awake for at least a week, I think," said the doctor, as she departed. Jim stood up, leaving a sleeping Kiba and Shirley in the waiting room. Stepping into the recovery room, he saw you in the bed on the far side of the room, closest to the window. Walking up to your bedside, Jim looked at you. You were no longer bloody or dirty. Your clothes had been replaced by a white nightgown and some of the things found in your pockets were set on the bedstand. One item caught his eye. It was a dueling deck. He decided to ask you when you awoke. A bandage wound around your head and over your left eye, the one with the cut. You had IVs and a blood bag hooked up to you, to restore the lost fluid and blood. An oxygen mask covered your mouth and nose, to help you breathe. The rest of you was obscured by a thin white blanket that was pulled up to your chin.
Jim sat down and looked at you. Your eyes were shut as your chest rose and fell, breathing in the steady rhythm of deep sleep. One of your wolf ears twitched as Kiba walked up to the bed, standing beside Jim. Jim leaned over and picked him up, pulling him into his lap. Kiba whimpered as he looked at you. "It's okay, little guy. Your mum is going to be just fine. She's just sleeping for a little while," said Jim, as he stroked Kiba. Your ear twitched again. "Kiba…," you whispered, as you shifted slightly. Jim smiled, and looked back at Kiba. "So mate, that's your name! Now I know what to call you. Right, Kiba?," said Jim, as he patted Kiba. Kiba yipped quietly, and wagged his tail in happiness. Smiling, Jim stood up and set Kiba on the floor. "Come on, Kiba. We'll be back later. Let your mum get some rest," he said. Kiba wagged his tail and trotted after Jim as he left the infirmary. You would be asleep for a little more than a week.
