"Grandpa, I'm home!" A young teen called as he entered the Kame Game shop followed by three others.

"Hello Yugi. I see you brought your friends Joey, Tristan, and Tea! How are you all?" Yugi's grandpa Solomon replied.

Joey, a blonde headed skinny guy just nodded his head in greeting having stuffed his mouth with a cookie he got from a bag in his hand. It wasn't unusual to see him eating something. Actually, it was unusual to see him not. Solomon kept asking him what his secret was because despite what he ate, he never gained a pound. The joke about it was that his stomach was a black hole and it might as well have been! When he didn't have food in his mouth, the blonde was a loud, funny guy. Always cracking jokes and being a goofball with his New York accent.

The just as skinny pointy haired brunette, Tristan, mumbled a respectful "hello sir" to him. Out of all the friends Yugi had, Tristan was the quietest. He could be loud at times, but it was usually when it came to something he was excited about. Mainly in rough housing or when getting too into a game like they were now. He was the tallest of the bunch, but only by an inch over Joey and that was a good six foot even.

Lastly there was Tea, a petit short haired brunette woman standing a good head shorter than Tristan. Confident and warm towards others, it's easy to see that she was well liked among their little group. She valued friendship and fairness a lot so she was like the glue between them all. Out of all Yugis' friends, Solomon liked her the most. Looking over at him, Tea gave him a great big smile and replied warmly "Hello there grandpa! I've been good thank you, how about yourself?"

"I've been well, thank you! Are you all here to play video games? If so, you're welcome to use the living room." He invited.

"Sure, thanks!" Yugi responded enthusiastically. He and the others eagerly left the room and started up their game. Solomon sighed good-naturedly and walked into the kitchen to make snacks for the teens. Getting out some crackers and juice, the man got to thinking about his grandson.

Yugi was a very peculiar teen. He was the shortest of the bunch and looked the age of ten but was actually eighteen. On top of that, he has crazy star shaped black with violet tipped hair and blonde bangs, and large amethyst eyes. It makes for an odd, but cute sight. Throughout the years that Yugi has been with his grandpa, he didn't grow up like most. He was what most parents called "the perfect child". Well behaved, kind, never acting out, helpful, and caring towards others. A few of his friends have said that Yugi could be the "embodiment of innocence" and that he would have made any parents proud. There was one thing in particular about Yugi though, that made him different from others.

Yugi didn't have any real memories of being very young. He knew he was adopted, but could never seem to remember anything from his other family. His grandpa adopted him when he was only six years old. He tried to help Yugi with remembering when he was still young, but nothing ever came about. Solomon had been worried that he had been neglected by his other family, and it's understandable why he thought that. While on a hiking trip with his old friend Author Hawkins miles and miles away from the city, he had found Yugi all alone. It had been raining and the temperature was dropping rather quickly being it was becoming fall, so the two men were heading back to the car to return home when they stumbled upon the small child.

He was wrapped in nothing but a strange looking blanket and looked very cold, confused and was quite distraught so immediately they took him to a doctor. After a little while at the hospital the physician came out and told him that the child was fine; all he had was a cold and slight amnesia. "Don't worry," he had said "he will be alright. There is no indication of neglect or abuse and from what our child specialist observed, there probably wasn't any mental abuse either." That sentence immediately calmed the two older men.

Weeks had passed with no sign of a missing child report so the physician told Solomon that the young boy was going to be put into the foster care system. Solomon immediately said the the child could come and live with him and that there was no problem. He had grown attached to the child and wanted to make sure he was cared for. The physician said that he'd get into contact with the child services and see if they could work anything out but couldn't make any promises. It had taken a month, many phone calls, and lots of paper work, but soon after, Solomon took Yugi home where he grew up to be who he was today.

His thoughts were disrupted by a loud disapproving yell from Tristan. "Dang it Joey, you're not supposed to do that! Go left! LEFT!" The reply was instant.

"No, ya nimrod! I'm supposed to go up! Go up, dammit!" Joey yelled at the character on the screen, concentration and irritation clear on his face.

"No Joey, if you go up any further, you'll... Haha! Your character is out!" Yugi cheered, earning a loud "no" from Joey. "I win this round!"

Joey was now rolling on the floor dramatically grieving his loss. "Oh come on you drama queen," Tea laughed "just start up another game. I'm sure you'll win this time."

"Yeah! I'll get ya this time Yug! Lets go!" Exclaimed Joey. Laughing at his friends antics, Yugi immediately started up another round and the rowdiness once again commenced.

Solomon looked away from the scene and smiled, fondly remembering the young boy he adopted all those years ago. 'He couldn't have turned out better.' he thought. 'He's made for great things.'

He didn't know how right he was.
