Yo, My first Yu-Gi-Oh fic....does that guarantee the epicness of my fail?
LOokY HerE!-I don't own any of the YGO characters, so really....Okay So I really think these this are pointless because, really, who would write a FANFICTION if they owned it? Couldn't they like just write it in the story or as a side-story or something?
Warning~: So, yeah, my mind isn't exactly clean per se......And I put their first names first, cause that's the way my lightbulb drops.
(the following are for author use only and are here so she doesn't misplace them: Dark eradicator warlock, silent magician lvl 4)
The first time Katsuya Jounouchi heard the voice he was making himself breakfast and dropped the egg. Not a pleasant experience--especially when it was the last egg he had until his next paycheck three days later.
The second time he'd been trying to ignore his own voice in his head when the voice popped up out of nowhere and decided that self-indulgence once in a while was not a bad thing. Both of the voices, both of which Katsuya was smart enough to ignore, ignored the lack of money to indulge in himself.
The third time it was cursing at him for not fighting back and just being kicked out by his abusive father.
And after that, it just decided to keep him company. Some of the time, Katsuya actually enjoyed the company, but then there were these times. And in a way it wasn't one of those 'these' times, but one of those times before the voice. The Shadow Realm times.
Little Puppy, just go.
Who in their fuckin' right minds would jus' merrily step into a portal to the fuckin' Shadow Realms?!
Obviously not you. Trust me, Little Puppy, this is not the realm you had earlier travel in.
Katsuya looked at the dark tunnel, the portal, that would ultimately take him to his doom. Nothing in this world could convince him to go back there. Hell, not even his dad would. Or that goddamn Seto Kaiba.
You've been living off the streets for three weeks. You refuse to tell your friends, you've hardly seen them in the past few months, trying to keep them from seeing your father's growing brutality. You're hungry, broke, have no shelter, and feel disgusting. Going through that portal will give you everything you need for a while. You may even come back.
"No." Katsuya said, turning around, only to be suddenly sucked into the portal against his will.
------------------------
Atemu frown. Now, Yugi new Atemu frowned at lots of things--like the contraptions (cars) that insist on trying to run him over when he tries to cross the street--but it wasn't one of those frowns. In fact, this frown did nothing but send chills down Yugi's small spine.
"Atemu?"
Atemu's eyes narrowed, glowing, like they did when he tapped into his shadow magic. No, Yugi figured, something was not right.
"What is it?" Yugi continued, staring at his larger look-a-like. "What's happened?"
"There's something....it's the Shadow Realms. There's a portal. But it was only opened enough to possibly allow one to enter." Atemu looked at Yugi, glazing an unhelpable, appreciating glace down the little body dressed in casual attire and an apron, and back into his worried violet eyes. "We must find the other Yamis, as much as I dislike the idea."
"Too late, lazy pharoh." Bakura walked into the game shop, followed by Ryou, Seth, Isis, Marik, and Malik. "We've been feeling the pressure you've ignore for the past few months."
"I no longer wished to be caught in the shadow business. I believed no harm would have come to by this." Atemu grimaced.
"This stupidity had lost you your last life, Pharoh." Marik pointed out and sniggered. Malik merely slapped his arm. "Ow!"
"He's right." Seth agreed, nodding his head and smirking along with sending a superior look to Atemu. Atemu glared back. How dare Seth still challenge him.
"Why don't you just go get your Hikari and let the intelligent do their work, Priest."
"My Hikari is busy doing smart things--like running one of the largest companies in Japan-- unlike you who sits at a shop all day waiting for a customer to enter."
"You guys, stop!" Yugi demanded.
"Why don't we gather Jou, Honda, and Anzu and try to figure this out?" Ryou suggested, linking his arms cautiously with Bakura and trying to redirect the darkening conversation, "They'd maybe able to help, too."
"That sounds like a plan!" Yugi eagerly agreed, taking his eyes from the glare-fighting pharoh and priest, "I'll call Anzu and Honda; does anyone know where Jou might be?" There was silence at the question, one that easily didn't bode well with Yugi's stomach. "Has...has anyone seen Jou lately?"
"I saw, 'im. Three days ago." Bakura muttered, "He didn't look good, skinny and dirty as hell. Think he saw me 'cause our eyes connected and before I could blink, he was gone."
"And you didn't say anything?!" Ryou yelled, squeezing Bakura's arm.
Seth also sent the thief a look of immediate disapproval. Things like that would make someone he knew not too happy.
"There wasn't nothing to say," Bakura grumbled some. He looked at Yugi and motioned him to go on, "Is it just that soul that's useless, or do both of you have crap wrong with your brains?"
"Listen, thief, I will not have you talking to--" Atemu stood, challenging Bakura just to have Yugi pull him away.
"Atemu, let's get working on this; as much as I hate to say it, I have a feeling Jou's already over his head."
---------------------------------
"Urg...I'm so over my head." Katsuya moaned, holding his head and sitting up. It felt like he'd just spun in a circle a million times and suddenly stopped. "Stupid controlin' voices, wit' stupid controlin' ways."
"This controling way has gotten me very far, I thank you." It was the voice in his head, but it wasn't in his head.
He looked at familiar, armored, cloaked, dark feet and followed them up.
"Stupid voice, stupid me, stupid controlin'---"
"Al'right, Little Puppy, I understand you are not of the happiest of beings right now, but I assure you, once you bathe and eat, you'll feel better."
Katsuya stood, still holding his head as he caught his footing, and stared darkly at the man in front of him. He was proud of himself for not completely freaking out and running around screaming like a chicken who got its head cut off. But then again, he'd been through hell and back, pretty much literally, and few thing freaked him out like they used to. "Listen," he poked the man's armored chest, "Misteh Dark Magician--"
"Leto."
"Leto," Katsuya continued, "You don' honestly think that just because ya offer me food, a bath, and a place t' stay tha' I'll forgive ya--"
"Master!" Oh, gods, will he ever get to finish telling the controlling asshole off?
Katsuya turned around to tell off Leto's companion only to become wide-eyed and filled with giddy-ness when he saw the giant red-eyes black dragon waddling towards him, almost like a excited child. Well, he said that food, a bath, and a place to stay wouldn't make him forgive the magician, but hell, this could make anyone fill with forgiveness...and slightly feel largely simple minded.
"R-red eyes?"
"Master, Leto was really able to convince you?" The dragon stopped and lowered his head to Katsuya's, examining his small, neglected master.
"There was no convincin'. There was askin', then forcin'...." Katsuya put his hand up, as if to pet the dragon but never actually did until the dragon nuzzled his hand that was just so small against the dragon's muzzle. "Oh, Gods, you're beau'iful, Red Eyes."
The dragon moved his nose passed Katsuya's hand and nuzzled sweetly, like a kitten, against his face, "Please, call me Akash, Master; and thank-you." Akash moved his head and snorted smoke angrily in Leto's face. "You forced him, Leto?"
"I may have brought him against his will, but look at him; would you rather me to have not?"
Akash gave Katsuya another once over...and shook his head.
Katsuya groaned; was the entire Shadow Realms against him? "Look, ya said ya could send me back, right? So sendin' me back now would be greatly appreciated. And don't call me 'Master'; I ain't a Master and you ain't a slave. If anythin' if you were someone I knew more, I'm sure you'd be a friend."
"Master,"Akash pleaded, ignoring Katsuya's command to stop, "please allow us to care for you for a while. Your condition in not good, and I, along with others, are not happy with it."
"Akash, Leto, I'm not happy bein' here, so live wit' it." Katsuya stood, crossing his arms and sticking his chin up stubbornly. He side glanced to the other two and his stubbornness melted a little....but not enough for him to go willingly! "And stop callin' me 'Master'!" He snapped, and pausing for a moment. "I ain't movin' until ya get a portal opened for me so I can get back home."
Leto and Akash glanced at each other. Katsuya knew those glances. They weren't good glances; in fact they were really bad glances that meant someone's infinite doom. He'd shared those glances with people, and he'd seen others shared them and it always ended up with everyone else pitted against one person.
He really didn't like those glances. "Oh, no." Katsuya pushed, dropping his stance and trying to stop himself from letting his instinct take over and running. No, that would be stupid and only get him lost. "I can imagine what yer thinking, and no. Don't even think 'bout it anymore."
Both of his enemies looked at him now, and making it quite obvious they also weren't going to just back down. No. Katsuya was doomed and he knew it.
And true to their glances, Leto and Akash ganged up on Katsuya. Katsuya dodged, jumping over the dragon's tail as it tried to wrap around him, then ran circles around them, dodging even the magician's spells and tried grabs. Life on the streets had made him learn a few tricks. And you learn real fast once you get caught--whether it be by gang members or the police.
And finally, after a half an hour of continuous chasing, the two gave up. Katsuya stood, watching the two collapsed beings, hardly breathing hard and a triumphant smile on his face. "That's all ya got? I'd expected more from ya!"
The two looked crossly at him.
"That's because they're men!" Said an out-of-absolute-nowhere high-pitched voice. The next thing Katsuya knew, he was struggling against a vine of pretty pink flowers. If he weren't struggling, he'd of sneered his lips in disgust. "See, men can't do nothin' right!"
He looked to the squeaky fiend, the Dark Magician Girl. Well..., Katsuya thought, fuck.
"Great," Leto grumbled, "Just our luck. We try to do something nice and winde up inflating Chirna's ego."
"Oh, Lety-poo! Don't be such a grump!" Chirna giggled and looked at Katsuya, who looked back with a dark look of defeat. "How are you, Master Puppy?"
"I jus' wanna go home!" He cried. "There isn't a reason for me ta be here!"
"But," Chirna protested, "Master Puppy! You're in poor health!"
"We've tried that reason; Master isn't listening." He waddled over to Katsuya and nuzzled his face. His poor, poor master. He could feel the pain and the need not to burden them his master was feeling.
"That's because it ain't a good reason!"
"The rest of us think it is." Leto argued, grumbling at dusting the dirt off his cloak, "Why you don't think so is beyond my understanding."
"You wanna know why?" Katsuya struggled. This was ridiculous! What the hell was this vine made of anyways? A giant hairband? He looked at them looking at him expectantly."What?"
"Aren't you going to tell us, Master?"
"Don't call me Master! And tell you what?" He grumbles, if only he could grab the knife in the pocket on the inside of his jacket...
"Why you think you bad condition isn't a reason to have people take care of ya!" Chirna huffed, puffing out her cheeks childishly. "Jeebs, you'd think he'd pay attention to himself more."
"We wouldn't have forced him here if he did," Leto pointed out.
"Arg! You're all assholes! I disown the Shadow Realms and all the reside in 'em!" Katsuya screamed, inching his hand more towards the pocket. He was almost there....."It ain't a good reason 'cause I can take care of myself!"
"Pick-pocketing and not bathing or eating right is not taking care of yourself, Jounouchi," Leto stated, "We are wasting time, Akash, grab him and let's go. He needs a bath and some food."
"Sounds good."
"No!" Katsuya cried, struggling more as Akash wrapped his tail securely around him. He almost had the knife too! As the magician's poofed away with a few muttered words and Akash took off he cursed, "I hate ya all!"
Arrrg...I'm not sure, it's my first attempt at a different fandom then Naruto. I know it's not an excuse to be so bad, but really, it doesn't help. Whateve's. If I decide laters I don't like it, I'll make it disappear.
