Ugh why did i set it to seven o'clock in the morning again?
Oh that's right, today's the day, the day my Dad signed me up for duel academy.
I like duelling but not that much to go to a school about it, it was all Seto's fault, he's the one that recommended it, ugh damn him, all i want to do is take on my responsibilities as, well who i am really.
I try to push the covers off of me, but something stops me, it feels heavy, it couldn't be my spotted cat Laugai, my mom took her out because she had a habit of sleeping on my face.
Oh no if my mom found out that i...
Oh my gosh i must have fell asleep reading it again, oh no.
The book I'm talking about is worth its weight in gold, locked with the master key of Egypt , decorated with scarab beetles and it was ... Open.
The book of Amun RA.
"ali a hey." I whisper, like my mom i speak a lot of medjai language around the house and school.
My dad doesn't understand it, it's quite funny the way he gets a clueless look on his face whenever we speak it.
I push the book off me wow that will hurt later, sleeping with a ton of gold on you.
I stumble towards the mirror, like my dad I'm not a good morning person.
I look at my long sandy blonde hair, my sea green eyes just like my mom's as well as something else she gave me, i look at my shoulder, the markings i had when i was born, will always be with me reminding me who i am, the Egyptian scriptures that my mom used to tell me about, its not exactly the same as hers but it's still a medjai mark.
My name you ask: well it's Set-su-ay Wheeler.
You may think that's a funny name, but I was named after one of my mom's ancestors, she was a very special medjai, but it's weird, five thousand years ago she disappeared without a trace.
Anyway my parents are from two different worlds, I don't mean like my Dad is ET or anything, it's just my Dad was brought up around technology like TV, holographic games like duel monsters as well as mobile phones, my mom was born and raised in the dessert of Egypt, Hamunaptra to be exact, i remember her saying to me the first time she saw a TV was when she was fifteen.
I brush my hair and wipe my face, today is going to be a long day.
I walk over to my closet to see it clean for once , i look up and down to only see one outfit, oh yeah i already packed.
So I picked out a white tank top ,my blue hoodie and white skinny jeans and as for shoes my favourite grey sneakers.
I smile and turn to leave my room but i was blocked by, my mom.
Her short-ish brown and blonde hair, her green eyes and a smile on her face.
"mom" i gasped.
"Set-su-ay, when i was in the basement this morning, i found two things missing, one is a key, the one with the hieroglyphics on and the golden book the one that can send people to the underworld, you know that old chestnut." She smirked knowing that i took them, as well as patronising me thinking i didn't know the proper names.
"ugh well..." i trailed off as i tried to shut the door.
"sweetie your time will come to protect them, you should make the most of your life before that time , ok?" she smiled.
I nodded, i let her into my room to take them back down to the basement, i felt kind of bad for letting her take them, since our house has a lot of stairs, and i live on the third floor.
"Selona lemme help ya'" i heard my dad say.
I smile and run out of my room, sitting on the railing for the stairs and sliding past my parents.
They laugh as i land on my feet.
"she's got your balance." My dad laughed to my mom.
"Joey she has your temper." She smiled kissing his cheek.
Yeah that's true, I do get angry fast but I'm mostly happy.
I run into the kitchen to see toast on the table, i put some in my mouth and look on the table, my duelling deck was in a short stack on the table, my mom made sure i take extra because apparently to Seto people steal each other's cards at the academy.
But how do they know if I'll even get in.
My dad comes in smiling, his blonde hair like it normally is and his happy grin plainly on his face.
"so are you excited Set-su-ay?" my dad asked, i nodded.
"turn over your first card in your deck." He smiled again.
I did as he asked and gasped, it was one of my dad's favourite cards, it was as he called it :
Red eyes.
Yes! I have the red eyes black dragon.
"thank you Dad!" i shout.
"Set-su-ay, its seven thirty your going to be late." My mom shouted as she walked up the stairs from the basement.
"oh thats right i need to walk with Amane." I realised.
"have fun sweetie!" my dad said as he watched me pick up my deck and my duel disc Seto gave me for my birthday.
I smiled and gave them one last hug for luck, then i ran out of the door grabbing my bag on the way out, the people will be over to pick up my suit case later, again that's if i get in.
I run down the street to Amena Bakura's house, she had previously moved from Egypt to Japan for the duel academy, she would have come over with her twin brother Ako a year ago but she well, couldn't be bothered.
She looks exactly like her mother, with shining white hair, although its slightly bleached slightly blonde by the never ending sun in Egypt, another thing was her sapphire blue eyes, they were a deep blue as dark as the ocean depths. I sometimes swear i see them turn black.
But Amane wasn't innocent like her mother, my mom says i bring out the worst in her, but she's a little bit of a rebel, but i could tell she loves her parents a lot, but she doesn't really show it.
I jump over some fences and run round some people to get to my best friend's house.
She didn't live with her parents : Sakura and Ryou, they still were in Egypt, however she lived with a person that always gave me the creeps, his smile was sinister, his eyes were a dark abyss of evil and his name was...
"Bakura." I smiled as he opened the door.
"well hello Set-su-ay, long time no see." He smirked.
I gagged this guy is creepy, the way he looked at me like i was a victim, my mom said he was a five thousand year old spirit, and somehow i believe her.
He smiled smugly, leaned against the door frame with arms crossed, leaning inside to shout:
"Amane get down here! Set-su-ay is here for you!"
I smiled slightly as i heard steps coming from the small spiral stair case.
I looked to see my best friend, wearing a white tank top, a red squared skirt, with knee high black and white socks as well as black and white arm warmers , a black studded skull belt with platform buckle boots, same old Amane.
She grasped her duel disk from the coffee table as well as her deck , she smiled at Bakura, "seeya later."
"bye then." He growled as he shut the door.
"you got any sweets?" she asked.
I nodded, "yep they are all in my suitcase though."
She groaned, " i didn't grab breakfast this morning."
"thats your own fault." I laughed as i handed her a Hershey bar, i always keep one on me in case i get hungry when I'm out.
"thanks Set." She smiled.
Yep she called me Set, thats another thing you should know, many people call me one of the three syllables in my name, either : Set or Su or the one barely anyone calls me: Ay.
"hey guess what my dad gave me." I smiled reaching for the card in my deck holder.
"hmmmm." She hummed.
I raised the card in front of her face.
"no way, no way!" she shouted.
I smiled and nodded, "i bet he wants it back though, so i have to take really good care of it."
"i bet, i would love to have a card like that, but my Dad gave me Change of heart for luck." She moaned.
"whats so bad about that?" i ask.
"well it's hardly a red eyes, is it?" she smirked.
"c'mon were gonna' be late." I laughed as i grabbed her arm and started to run for the Kaiba corp tower, or whatever it's called.
When we arrived there were about three people there, one was a rather small and skinny girl, with long, wavy silver hair, her eyes were huge and i mean uncle Yugi huge, although her eyes were rather beautiful, a golden yellow colour.
I smile at her, she smiles a weak smile, this girl needs confidence, i pull Amane with me towards the little girl.
"hello, I'm Set-su-ay Wheeler, and this is Amane Bakura." I smile.
"err hi, I'm Sophia Hitori. Are you guys trying out two?" she asked in a small voice.
"you bet" i smile.
"are you here by yourself then?" Amane asked, Sophia nodded.
"you see i don't have many friends." She whispered again.
My mouth opened a little from shock, this girl seemed really nice how could she not have many friends?
"don't worry you can hang with us, let's just hope we all get in." I smirked.
"wow you mean it?" she asked, in a slightly louder voice, clenching her fists in happiness.
I nodded, "now let's go get signed up."
We signed our names and were designated towards duelling stations, i hate it when people watch me duel, because there is people everywhere looking at me, as if judging me.
I breathed in a deep breath, "it's time to duel." As Yugi Moto says.
I close my eyes and grasp the golden necklace around my neck, my mom gave it me, it was very special to me, the golden key stars and the yellow topaz stone in the middle, this necklace was also a key, to a very special golden chest of Anubis, but i like it better as a necklace.
