Author's Info: Okay, so I've been writing this story at the same time as Destinies of the Divine Descendants (which deals with Priest Seto) and I decided I would publish it. This may go a little slower, since this is actually hand-written while the other is completely typed on my computer. Please be patient with me and tell me what you think. Just because it's one of my infamous summer projects doesn't mean I don't like hearing people's opinions. I like constructive criticism as well, so by all means tell me what you think. Just don't flame. It's not kosher in any way, shape, or form.

The "whats": Listening to a bunch of random '90s alternative songs and thinking about how life tends to be one seriously messed up roller coaster ride. I also noticed how "lol" looks insanely similar to a podracer from Star Wars Episode I. Don't ask me why I notice that; I just do.

Disclaimer: Much as I wish I owned Yu-Gi-Oh, I don't. Yumi and Tsuki are my only claims at the moment. Maybe more will come, but not yet. Only time will tell.

Chapter One

"Tsuki, if you don't hurry up, I'm leaving you behind!" a girl called out from the base of the stairs, annoyed by her sister's ever slow preparations. How they could possibly be sisters, much less twins, was a complete mystery to her. They were almost polar opposites in terms of personality. Often, Tsuki only served as an aggravation to her elder sister. This was no exception.

"I'm coming, Yumi!" she heard her call back just before seeing her run down the stairs, brush in hand. Yumi scowled and waited for her sister to finish. "Ready!"

"About time," Yumi growled. "Any longer and you would have made us late."

"I thought you were going ahead without me," Tsuki said innocently in an attempt to tease her sister. Yumi's scowl deepened and she turned and walked away without another word. She was already tired of her sister's antics, and it was still only early morning.

"I decided to be nice for once, but it won't happen again. There's already going to be a lot of aggravation as is. I don't see why you feel the need to complicate it even further. Let's go, before I really decide to show my aggravation."

Tsuki just smiled to her sister and followed her out the door. She knew her sister was just anxious about that day. It would be their first day at Domino High, and there would likely be a bunch of people who would surround them, asking questions and trying to get various information out of them. Tsuki didn't mind; she actually liked the attention. Yumi, on the other hand, liked to keep to herself, and she was especially annoyed when guys would go up to her and ask her out or tell her she was cute.

"So, what do you think Domino High will be like, Yumi?" Tsuki asked. Yumi sighed and looked at her sister before turning the face ahead of her again.

"I'm sure it will be the same as Tokyo's schools, Tsuki. There will be plenty of guys for you to flirt with and there will be a severe lack of places for me to go and hide when I need to get away from the general chaos and distraction that is my peers."

"Come on, Yumi," whined Tsuki, "surely there will be someone who catches your eye here. Not every guy is shallow and annoying. Live a little. Besides, it's not like you have a job to hide behind anymore. You need to get out and enjoy the town for once. Who knows, you might actually enjoy it."

Yumi sighed. Her sister was really beginning to get on her nerves with all the "get a life and have some fun" speeches she continually touted. She had kept this up almost nonstop since their father announced they were moving from Tokyo to Domino City. She also remembered this was the same sister who had initially been furious about the move. Still, she never would have been able to tell just by seeing her sister as they walked in through the school's front gate.

"Tsuki, just because I don't have a job doesn't mean I don't plan on getting one," she reminded her sister. "Besides, I don't go running off with just anyone who asks either. I'm not you," she said, sneering slightly. Tsuki gave her a mock hurt expression as they made their way inside, but Yumi knew her sister hadn't really been offended. She was too used to her jibes to even care.

"You could stand to be more like me. You need to lighten up," Tsuki said thoughtfully. "Maybe if you did, other people wouldn't think you're cold. Just because I know what you're really like doesn't mean everyone else does."

"Did you ever consider the possibility I might actually like it that way?" Yumi asked seriously. "Tsuki, I know you love being around people, but that's you. I prefer having only a small number of people who know what I'm like. At least I know I can trust them. I can't say the same for some of your so-called friends."

"Okay, so maybe I can be too trusting at times," Tsuki admitted, "but we can't all be icy and calculating like you, Yumi."

They both stood outside the door of their new class and waited for the teacher to call them in. As they waited, they listened to all the students who were talking about the two new transfer students. The sisters smirked to one another as they impatiently listened to all the gossip that surrounded their arrival.

"So, what do you think they'll be like?" Yugi asked Joey excitedly as he sat down at his desk. He had heard the gossip that was going around, but he knew Joey would know even more.

"I've heard they're both really cute," Joey said, grinning widely. "If the rumors are true, I'll just have to use some of my magic on them. They'll be falling for Joey Wheeler in no time."

"They'll be falling, all right," Tea said teasingly, "falling right onto the floor from laughing too hard." Joey glared at her while Yugi and Tristan laughed. They quieted down when they saw the teacher enter along with the two new students and quickly sat down in their seats.

"As all of you seem to already know," the teacher began, "we have two new transfer students entering our class. They are new to Domino and have come here from Tokyo. I hope you will be helpful in showing them around the school."

When the teacher motioned for them to step forward, the sisters stood in front of the class. Tsuki was smiling brightly while Yumi merely looked around disinterestedly. Tsuki knew Yumi was trying to see what kind of students were in the room, but all Tsuki cared about was how many friends she'd make.

"Class, I'd like you to meet Tsuki and Yumi Makoto," the teacher said as she wrote their names on the board behind them. Yugi now knew why everyone had been so excited to meet them. Not only were the two transfer students cute, but they were also twins.

The one named Tsuki had light brown hair that fell down to her lower back and her eyes were the blue of a cloudless sky. She was scanning the room eagerly, and there seemed to be a great deal of hope and excitement in her eyes. Her sister, Yumi, had dark brown hair that stopped a few inches below her shoulders, and her eyes were the blue of the far-off ocean. She had the same facial features and pale skin as her sister, but she was certainly the more beautiful of the two. Still, she did not seem anywhere near as enthused about all the attention they were getting.

"Do the two of you have anything you wish to say to the class before we begin?" the teacher asked.

"Well, Yumi doesn't much care for this sort of thing, but I'd be happy to say a few words," Tsuki said happily, earning a disgruntled look from Yumi. "Hi, I'm Tsuki, and this is my sister, Yumi. We're new here to Domino, as you know, so we really hope you treat us gently. We won't bite, we promise!" she said, giggling as she bowed in greeting.

"Well said," the teacher said with a smile. "Now we'll find seats for the two of you. Tsuki, you can sit next to Yugi Mutou over there. Yumi, you may sit next to Seto Kaiba." As Yumi heard these names her eyes widened. She looked at the person her sister was to sit next to and then glanced at the young man in the desk next to hers before heading over to claim her seat. Just in this arrangement she knew their lives here were going to be interesting.
