Chapter 1: Summer Break
Jesse Anderson, renowned at his school, North Academy, for his dueling prowess with his Crystal Beast deck, was impatiently waiting for the bell to ring, signaling the end of the school year and the beginning of a pleasurable, and much needed, summer break! He looked up from his novel to check the classroom clock, just to see how much longer he would be forced to wait.
"Why can't we just go? We don't have anything left to do!" he thought. Normally, he wouldn't be so impatient with waiting, but today he just wasn't willing to be so calm. He was thinking of his summer plans. With his parents leaving for a much-needed holiday for themselves, he decided to take a trip of his own with two of his friends from school; one having been a friend from childhood.
Angelina was Jesse's first friend. Her parents had moved them into the worn house next door to Jesse's house when they were around seven years old, and there they became fast friends. Jesse remembered the times when he and Angelina would go playing in the woods behind their homes and would come across many treasures like a hidden cave full of beautiful rocks, which Jesse was absolutely fascinated by. Jesse smiles at the memory of that because Angelina would jokingly tease him, calling him a girly-boy for like the colorful stones. Jesse would get very mad at the joke, but would quickly forget it because of all the fun him and Angelina would have exploring.
As they got older, Jesse became hooked on Duel Monsters, the card game that swept the world by storm and was absolutely the most talked about game-turned-competitive sport. Angelina wasn't very interested in Duel Monsters, unlike Jesse and most of their other friends that they made over the years. Therefore, when their parents prepared to send them to special academies, Angelina went to an all-girls academy, preparing for a career as a business executive.
Tall and quite a tomboy, Angelina was a rebel spirit when she felt like it. She had confided in him when they were around thirteen that she liked girls and that boys held no romantic interest for her. Jesse, having been raised to always treat others with kindness and care, told her that he would be her friend no matter whom she liked, and their friendship was unbreakable since.
Recently, Jesse had received an E-Mail message from Angelina with a photo of her girlfriend whom he would meet on the trip. Her name was Kaci. A cheerleader sort of girl, from what Jesse could see, although they looked like polar opposites, Angelina and Kaci looked cute together. Jesse smiled as he opened the E-Mail on his cell phone, just to look at the attachment one more time before checking the wall clock again.
As the clock struck 2:45 p.m., the bell ending the school day sounded, eliciting yells and hurrays from all the students in every classroom. Grabbing his schoolbag, Jesse proceeded to the doorway and out to the boats that would take them to the mainland, where they would board busses that would take them home.
As Jesse made his way down to the pier where the boats were moored, his cell phone vibrated in his pocket. Judging by the length of time it hummed, he had received a text message. Checking it, he saw that it was from Angelina:
"hey Jay-jay! R u out of school yet??" it read.
Jesse was used to the nickname Angelina adamantly gave him. He texted in reply: "Yeah. About 2 leave 4 home. Ttyl when I get home" With that, Jesse continued onto the boat to the mainland.
RMSTitanic89: Well, how is that? I tried not to make it too boring without sacrificing background info. I hope it seems believable. Anyway, chapter 2 will be up soon. I know I have other fanfics that still need to be completed, but I have had a ton of things going on with work, school, and my parent's health so I haven't had a bunch of time to do any writing! Anyway, I'll try to hurry the second chapter!
