kay I'm gonna give a brief description of my OC now so that I can keep my sanity. Her name is Ashley, she's 16 years old, she has reddish hair, green eyes, is a yugioh fanatic, and uses a winged-beast/dragon deck. You'll learn the rest in the story, P.S. this is my first fanfic so please don't be too harsh, enjoy!
"Mmm churros," I say to no one in particular as I stuff the last of one into my mouth. I'm currently at an anime con and loving every second of it. I'm wearing a super realistic dark magician girl costume and wandering aimlessly around looking for something to do. Suddenly I spot a Yami cosplayer getting glomped by a bunch of fangirls. I instinctively run over and yell, "Okay, get off of him!" I wave my wooden dark magician girl staff around for effect and they reluctantly get off the poor kid.
"Ugh, stupid fangirls, thanks by the way," he says to me, his voice sounding nothing like Yami from the anime. Now that I'm looking at him, his cosplay is crappy too, those rabids (my nickname for the crazy fangirls) have no shame.
I smile, "no problem, just be careful, there are crazies everywhere," he nods at me and walks off. I spot a Yugi cosplayer heading my way, this one's cosplay is incredible! He walks up to me looking awed.
"That was awesome, they just ran away!" he smiles up at me.
"Meh, it was nothing," I answer, "So what's your name? Mine's Ashley." I ask him.
"My name's Yugi, can I stick with you? I don't wanna end up like that other guy," he asks.
I roll my eyes at him, "I kind of got that already, I mean the name thing, as for walking with me, someone needs to protect such an awesome cosplay from the rabids."
He looks pretty surprised about my answer. "What do you mean about my name, and...rabids?."
I chuckle, "it's what I call crazy fangirls, it's somewhat of a nickname I've given to them. As for the name endeavor, I can respect an in character cosplayer, plus I've got nothing better to do." Again he seems pretty confused, but this time he stays silent. I decide to further the conversation by saying "okay, if you're really Yugi Moto then prove it."
The look on his face suddenly changes and he says in a surprisingly good Yami voice, "I'll take it from here."
"Okay, it'll take more than a good Yami impression to convince me you're Yugi, but still, that's awesome," I retort, although once more I'm blown away by his great cosplay abilities.
He looks taken aback by my answer, "how do you know my name?" He asks in a much more serious tone, ugh time to explain the anime to the crazy cosplayer, this should be fun.
"Well the anime yugioh is a show about a kid named Yugi who solves the millenium puzzle and unlocks the spirit of an ancient egyptian pharaoh. They then go on many adventures with their friends to save the world and unlock the secrets of the pharaoh's past, blah blah blah." By the end of that I'm out of breath, but "Yugi" looks like he has reached the maximum level of confusion. "Okay, you know what, just follow me," I say, as I lead him to the yugioh booth.
We walk in silence for a few minutes with him just looking at everything with a strange look on his face. Eventually we reach an area where a row of tv's are playing various episodes of yugioh. "Hey, check this out," I yell to him, "This is one of the most epic parts!" I say referring to the moment the pharaoh figures out his true name. But just as I hear the line, "I am king Atem!," 'Yugi' clutches his head looking like he's in pain, I rush over to him but just as I get there he passes out. He's pretty small so I can easily carry him to my car. In a panic I drive as fast as I can home and lay him down on my living room couch, the rest of my family is out for the night, so It's just me and him. Suddenly his millennium puzzle starts to glow brightly and I get the strong urge to put it on. So I think why not, walk over, remove the puzzle from around his neck, and put it on. As soon as I do I begin to feel dizzy, and before I can do anything I black out.
When I open my eyes, I see a labyrinth of doors resembling Yami's mind from the show, but when I turn around I see the labyrinth quickly dissolving. I do the only sensible thing and run, as I'm running A door catches my eye, it looks almost as if it's...glitching? I run toward it and open it, having pretty much no other good options, it looks as if it's the memory of the yugioh episode he saw. I run toward it clutching my wooden staff tightly, and as I reach it I use the staff to smash the tv before the line is said, just as the ground disappears out from under my feet. As I start to fall I see the labyrinth start to rebuild itself above me, I then look down to see I'm about to land on a floating island. I brace myself but land more gently than I expected and decide to look around, I discover that the island is almost completely covered in almost crystalline looking flowers, save for a few patches of grass. I also notice an intricately carved wooden door in the center of the island, so I decide to walk up to it. As I open it, a golden light bathes the field of flowers, Inside I see a stone tablet. I grab my phone and go to google translate, deciphering the text. It says something like, "The lost princess and the red dragon will rise again to help the pharaoh to defeat an ancient evil."
I'm pondering what this could mean, when I notice a small purple and green pendant in the center of a carving that looks like my favorite card, the white horned dragon. I reach for it and try to pull it out, but it's stuck in the tablet, I'm filled with determination, I pull harder and the necklace begins to come out of the rock. Finally I pull the pendant with all of my strength, and in another flash of golden light the jewel is freed from the stone.
I know it's short, I have more, but I need to know if people like it first, so send me constructive criticism and I'll try and ger back to you. Anyways this was the first chapter, hope to see you guys again, Ashley out!
