Chapter 1.
The TV flickered on mysteriously within the basement living room of the Game Shop. Yugi and his grandpa glanced into the living room, noticing the static sparks scream loudly out into the room. Yugi blinked confused at the sudden TV action. Grandpa Moto huffed a sigh, knowing their television set was old and it was about time it started to fumble and turn on unexpectedly.
Grandpa stumbled into the room, going to examine the TV like it was really nothing strange at all. Yugi turned his back and shooed away from sight. He probably headed for his room to speak with his yami about dueling and Egypt.
Grandpa Moto's eyes narrowed slightly, trying to figure out why the static came on instead of a channel.
"Hmm…" He pondered to himself, messing with the TV until the static formed a word and a screeching noise almost made his ears bleed. Though, the strange, mysterious words that were formed startled the old man.
Silent Hill
And then after a quick moment or so, the television shut off once more. Grandpa Moto looked at it completely confused, not sure about technology working the way it did. He stood there a moment then walked away, knocking on Yugi's door.
Yugi opened the door for his grandpa, his innocent purple eyes blinked. "Uh, what is it?"
The old man honestly hadn't remembered what it was but it was something important. "Nothing, just seeing what you were up too," He grinned, "Make sure you finish your homework." Grandpa Moto winked towards his grandson and walked away down the hall to his bedroom.
Yugi watched him leave before shutting the door, and rubbing the back of his head. "That was weird…"
Yami appeared in his ghostly form who was sitting on the bed. "What's wrong?" Yugi looked at him a bit worried, his shoulder falling a bit more. "Grandpa keeps forgetting things. It seemed he had something important to tell but it wasn't anything besides telling me to do my homework. I'm worried." The shorter vessel confessed to his other half, holding his millennium puzzle within his palm.
Yami looked at him a moment before appearing next to the young boy and patted his shoulder. "Don't worry. I'm sure it was some where on the lines of homework. We shouldn't worry so much about it."
Yugi tried to smile, just to reinsure his other half he was right. "Yeah, we have to worry about your memories right now. It's our mission." He nodded as he returned to his desk and finished up the small bits of homework.
A week later, there was a package at the door, signed for Yugi Moto at the door step. Before he left for school, he picked it up and opened it. For being such a package, the actually importance of it was a letter that advertised a theme park and tickets for several, just enough for his friends…
It was a strange sign, the tickets and the card that showed him the glorious theme park. Not only that but spring break was coming up and going to the park seemed fun. Yugi stared at the letter all the way to school.
Tea found Yugi, smiled cheerfully as she touched his shoulder lightly. "Hey, Yugi," her cheerfulness made Yugi smile towards her, though he'd always smile in her presence. He wanted to make Ms. Gardener smile, his childhood crush growing in his heart.
"Hey, Tea," He grinned cutely, forgetting about the tickets. Being witty and quick, Tea noticed them quickly. "What are those?" She asked, her hand lifting out to see what he had.
He jumped for a moment, blushing lightly at the touch of her smooth hands. "These are tickets to a amusement park I got in the mail." He said shyly.
Tea's smile broadened, reading over the tickets. "Yugi, that's so amazing. There's enough for us to go! Oh my god, we should go one of these days for spring break!" She giggled, not giving him a chance to speak about it. "It'd be so cool, Yugi."
He smiled along with her, as if she read his mind. "I was hoping we do that. Might as well go. Their free too." She nodded and handed the tickets back to him. "Common, Yugi. Let's go to school and tell the others."
Within the classroom, Ryou, Tristan, Joey and Tea stalked over Yugi's desk. They spoke among themselves about the tickets, all of them discussing about it.
"I think we should go. Be nice to get away," Tea supported the statement, nudging
Yugi to speak but he didn't say anything, not sure what to say since Tea was doing all the talking.
"Ya, sure would. I haven't been to a theme park in ever!" Joey's arms waved around excitedly, his New Jersey accent roaming about as usual.
Tristan nodded, grinning as his hands dug within his uniforms pockets. "I wouldn't mind either. Whatever you guys do, I'll do too."
Each of them glanced at Ryou who remained quiet for the remainder of the time until it came down to see if he would be joining them. He blinked his brown pupils big in bewilderment.
"Ryou, you going to go with us to the theme park, or not?" Tea questioned, her hands on her hips in a irritated manner. Ryou rubbed the back of his head, needing to confess something. "I've never been to a theme park before…"
Each of them looked at him awkwardly, the mention of life without a theme park seemed abnormal to them.
Joey shook his head, "You're always so deprived." He stated bluntly.
Tea hit him within the rib cage with her elbow aggressively. "Then come with us. You'll like them, promise." She smiled sweetly and Ryou finally decided to tag along with them.
They cheered and patted his back, happy and excited for the coming spring break. They all had in mind that the theme park was going to be exciting but it was going to be the worse nightmare any of them could ask for.
