Prologue

I own nothing but Amy and the father.

8 years ago

Snow falls down around a bright lighted city. At this time of day snow littered the ground making the black streets pure white. Two children stand in front of a large building, a shopping mall. The female of the two faces their father, A medium sized man with a warm gaze and soft smile. Now, he stands with a serious look on his face.

"Now, I want you two to stay right here while I go find the car. Amy you're in charge while i'm gone, okay?"

The purple haired girl returns the serious look much to her parent's amusement and relief. Her little brother, though only by 11 months, is holding her hand, squeezing it as if he was afraid she'd leave him like his mother had left them all those years ago. The girl nods her head.

"Yes daddy."

"Good, now stay right here, I'll be back soon with the car. Amy look after your brother."

With that said the father walks away murmuring under his breath about how big the parking lot was. The brown haired child holding Amy's hand suddenly realizes that their father was leaving, and tugs on his sister's thick white winter coat. Amy looks over at the boy.

"Yes Jaden?"

Jaden whispers in her ear and asks her where their only parent was going.

"He's going to get the car Jaden. He'll be back soon." She says in a soothing voice.

Knowing that his father was coming back, Jaden takes out his deck and tugs on his sister's sleeve again. Noticing the deck in his hands, Amy tells him that they can duel when they get home, but most definitely not in the middle of a sidewalk with snow all over the ground.

Satisfied, the 10-year old boy begins to look through his deck, when a sudden blast of cold wind blows from behind and blows a card out of Jaden's deck.

"Ah!"

He races after it into the street. His sister, having been looking elsewhere notices his absence almost immediatly. Out of the corner of her eye she notices an incoming and very familiar car, and speeds after him without hesitation, leaving the safety of the sidewalk.

"Jaden!"

Their father, driving the incoming vehicle, slams on the breaks. However, the car had hit a patch of ice and couldn't stop. For a horrifying moment Amy wondered if she would reach her brother in time.

"Jaden!"

Jaden, having caught his card with a satisfied smile recognizes his sister's distressed call, oblivious to the incoming car. To curious onlookers the girl seemed to jump from one place to the next. As if she'd run through an invisible portal sending her to the boy's immediate side. Amy shoves him out of the way to the safety of the sidewalk on the other side of the one they had previously been on, but she did not have enough force to send herself after him. The car hit her and another car, holding a startled driver, which was trailing after it, hits the car holding their only parent and beloved father.

Jaden sits up out of the pile of snow he landed on, and stares in horror. Blood stains the snow and ice. He runs over to his sister after getting over his shock. Blood flows down the side of her head and her once white coat is stained with so much blood, Jaden had to wonder how much force his sister had been hit with.

"Amy!"

He lands on his knees next to her. Her once purple hair is bloodied and she's barely conscious. Jaden panics, terrified that his mother figure would leave him.

"Jaden…you're alright…thank goodness…"

Just barely getting the sentence out, Amy loses consciousness.

Not but a few minutes later the sound of sirens could be heard in the distance.

Before long, Jaden is sitting in the waiting room all alone, except for the magazines on the table and the ever presence of his deck. A doctor suddenly walks in and says, "Are you a relative of the Yuki's?"

Jaden nods his head and the doctor's face suddenly takes on a sad and dark look.

'The father is dead, poor kid and his sister's in a coma, three broken ribs, one broken arm, a cracked skull, and she had been peirced by the broken front of the old car she was hit with. She might never wake up.'

The doctor explains the situation as best he can to Jaden. Jaden for some reason seems calm despite what has happened. After explaining to Jaden what has happened to the best of his abilities, the doctor takes him into a white room. Amy lies on her back with bandages around her head and arms as far as Jaden can see.

The white color of the bandages almost blends into her pale skin. The reality of the situation hits Jaden, hard, and he starts to cry. He looked down at his deck. Finding some comfort in holding onto his friends. Suddenly he felt the presence of something. He looked up, and all of his monsters, even the ones he drew, were right beside him. Yubel vows to protect him against anything that may harm Jaden and make him cry like that ever again.

At the same time his sister, Amy, looks around at the black filled space holding her. The black is warm and feels like home. Two bright lights, holding a purple fured cat and a person that looks a lot like her, but wearing a cowgirl hat, a brown jump suit, and is a lot older, a teen, suddenly appear in front of her.

'Welcome' the words form in Amy's head, though they are not her own. 'You have much to learn.'

And so begins the legacy of time and space…..
