My first story! YAY!

Iboni: She locked herself in her room for 3 days to write the first 5 chapters. She only came out to eat.

And it was worth it. Care to do the disclaimer?

Iboni: Sure. Jamie and I do not own Yugi, Solomon, the millennium puzzle, and a lot of the other stuff in here.

However, we DO own Jessie, Ginger, the millennium snake, and the burgundy eyes of Ginger. Since normal people's eyes aren't burgundy.

Iboni: On with the fic!

Jessie Kaiba glanced up at the clock and sighed. Still twenty minutes left of school. She laid her head on the desk in front of her, because Mr. Wolf's lecture was giving her a major headache. Soon she was daydreaming about Yu-Gi-Oh, which her friends all made fun of her for. They thought her obsession with an old anime and a card game (which they claim is for 10 year olds) to be unnatural. As she was thinking about how to acquire a Dark Magician Girl, the bell rang, startling her. She quickly shoved all her books into her backpack and ran out to the bus. She hopped on and sat next to a sophomore, Ginger, who happened to be one of the only people in the town who liked to duel.

"Hey Ging. I think I've got a DMG locked up. What's new with you?"

"A Dark Magician Girl? Where'd you find that?" Ginger's burgundy eyes snapped up to look at Jessie.

"It seems that a man is moving in across the street from me today who used to own a game shop. In Japan! And get this, he's got a son my age who's gonna start in our school next week!"

"Way cool! But how do you know he's got a DMG?"

"Duelist's intuition." Jessie smiled and the bus stopped. "Ah, I almost missed my stop. I'll call you with details later." Ginger waved, and went back to the book in her hands, Yu-Gi-Oh, the aftermath. She laughed as she stepped off the bus. That was Ginger's favorite book. It's not like Yu-Gi-Oh caused the apocalypse or something. So what exactly was in that book? Jessie didn't have any idea. As she was walking down her road, she glanced at the new house. There was a moving van parked in he driveway, while movers' hauled boxes out. She caught a glimpse of someone who looked like he was just a kid. She looked harder and thought she spotted tri-colored hair spikes. Wait, what? Jessie shook her head. I must have imagined that. I probably should have taken my medication this morning. I must be hallucinating. Jessie walked up the short driveway to her house. Then she bounded up the stairs, and just as she reached the door, it opened. Jessie smiled a smile wider than thought humanly possible.

"Hey Seto! Missed you at school today! Where were you? Your fan girls were all crying and mourning the loss of their sexy angel." The high school senior rolled his eyes and wrapped his little sister up in a hug. Yes, his name was Seto Kaiba. But he was not THE Seto Kaiba. Ginger found it very funny that a girl with an obsession for dueling and Yu-Gi-Oh had the last name Kaiba.

"Hey sis! I couldn't make it. I was watching your old Yu-Gi-Oh DVD's and trying to make a duel disk just like the original Seto Kaiba's prototype. Ya know, the spinning one." Jessie giggled.

"Such a business man. You know, you were around before the manga, right? Making you the original Seto Kaiba."

"Oh, shut up. Why don't you go and help out the new neighbors? They must have tons of stuff, since they brought their whole gaming shop inventory with them."
"NO FREAKING WAY!" Jessie threw her backpack down and ran out of her house. "Catch ya later, Seto!" Seto just chuckled as Jessie ran down the driveway and across the street. The movers were taking a break, sitting in the truck. It must have been about 90 degrees out. She slowed herself down as she reached the door. She knocked, and it opened almost instantaneously. The person who greeted her surprised her very much, because he looked exactly like Yugi Mouto. He even had gravity defying tri-colored hair. Huh. Maybe I did take my meds today.

"Hi, I'm Yugi. You must be one of our new neighbors! Come in!"

"Holy. Freaking. Crap." Jessie mumbled as she stepped into the door.

"What was that? I didn't quite hear what you said." Yugi said as he shut the door behind them.

"Oh, um, I said 'Welcome to the neighborhood.' I'm Jessie Kaiba." She stuck out her hand, and Yugi shook it. Just then Solomon Mouto walked around the corner and said,

"Hi, you must be a neighbor! I see you've met my grandson." It was all too much for Jessie, because moments later she was lying, blacked out and face first, on the ground.

"Ugh. What happened? And why do I feel hung over?" Jessie asked as she sat up, rubbing her head.

"I do hope you're not hung over, because that would mean you were drinking while very underage." Solomon Mouto's face suddenly filled her vision.

"Ah!" Jessie shouted as she fell backwards onto Yugi, who was sitting on the couch she had been lying on moments ago. "Oh my god, I am so sorry! I probably just hurt you and I should be more careful and-" Yugi cut her off.

"It's fine. Grandpa shouldn't scare you like that after you passed out on the floor. Which, by the way, I would like to know the reason of." Jessie sat next to him for a minute, when she said very suddenly,

"Come over to my house. I can explain it better there." Yugi looked at his grandfather.

"Sure. Be home by 10." She grabbed his hand and started pulling him. He caught up to her and they walked over to her house like that, holding hands. As they were walking up the stairs she let go of his hand. Yugi looked at her. He had been enjoying the contact.

"My brother Seto is very, protective."

"Seto? And his last name is Kaiba? Like the multi millionaire in Japan that is number 1 in duel monsters?" Jessie's breathe hitched in her throat.

"Yugi? Have you ever heard of a show called Yu-Gi-Oh?" Jessie looked at him.

"Um, no. Is that big here in America or something?" Jessie shook her head. She tried the doorknob, which was locked. She reached into her pockets, and she couldn't find her key. She let out a string of profanities under her breath. Then she banged on the door and shouted at her brother.

"SETO! OPEN THE DOOR! I DON'T HAVE THE KEY!" The door opened, and Seto walked out and looked at Yugi. His mouth dropped open. Jessie reached over and shut it for him. He ran his hand nervously through his brown hair, his cobalt eyes looking Yugi up and down. He whispered into Jessie's ear,

"Is this dude some Yu-Gi-Oh obsessed junior like you who dresses up like Yugi in his spare time?"

"No" she whispered back. "his name really is Yugi, and he has absolutely no idea he stars in an anime." Yugi fidgeted nervously while they where whispering, rocking back and forth on his heels.

"Well Yugi," Seto said. "Come on in." Yugi smiled at him and thanked him as he walked in.

"Follow me" Jessie said. Yugi walked behind her, his amethyst eyes alight with interest. She got to a plain, brown door and stopped. "Yugi, before we go in here, I have another question."

"Alright. Go ahead."

"Have you heard of something called the Millennium Puzzle?" Jessie turned to face him and waited for an answer.

"Yeah. I have it at home. But I haven't finished it yet."

"And you're 16." Jessie sighed a breathe of relief.

"No, I'm 14. I skipped a few grades. I'll be 15 in a few days." Jessie seemed to stop breathing as her eyes got huge. She was remembering season 0, where Yugi first creates the puzzle. She really started to hyperventilate when she remembered that there is a very large senior named Ushio in her school. Suddenly she turned around and dashed into her room. Yugi followed very slowly, not sure what was wrong. When he walked into the room, he saw Jessie's room was covered in posters of him with his old friends from back home, and with someone who looked…just like him. Except with crimson eyes. He glanced towards Jessie after he ripped his eyes off of the crimson eyed man. She was ripping magazines off of the shelves in her room, each one had another picture of the man with crimson eyes. He knelt down and picked one up. It was dated 2001. He opened it. His amethyst eyes ran over the print, flipping page after page. When he was done, he looked up shakily at Jessie. She was putting something up on her television. He watched as he appeared on the screen. It was a day in his life back in Domino. Yugi started shaking and breathing heavily.

"You have to be kidding me. What are you, a stalker?"

"No." Jessie whispered. "Your life is an anime. Or was, until now. I don't know what will happen now." Yugi got up and walked towards the door.

"I'll, talk to you tomorrow. This is a lot to take in." He left, and Jessie grabbed her phone. She punched in a few numbers and held the phone to her ear.

"Ginger. Oh my god. You will not believe what's happening to me. I just met Yugi Mouto."

No, people. She wasn't ACTUALLY hung over! She just felt like it.
