Disclaimer: I unfortunately don't own any of the characters. But that's the joy of fanfics. Kazuki Takahashi created everyone except Ash, Pikachu, Prof. Oak, and Delia. They were made by Satoshi Tajiri.
NOTE: I know the name Trusdale was used for Solomon Muto in Yu-Gi-Oh Eternal Duellist Soul but I figure I might as well use the name for Yugi's dad.
Chapter 1: Yugi's a What!
It was a normal day at the Kamé Game Shop. The birds were chirping and Solomon Muto was checking the mail. After bypassing bills he came across a letter sent to Trusdale Muto from Delia Ketchem.
"Ho," Solomon said. "Who's this Delia woman? Even more, how does she know my son?"
Solomon walked into the shop and into the living room and sat on a stool near the couch and read the letter. It said:
Dear Trusdale,
I hope this letter got to you okay. After years of trying I managed to track you down so I'm inviting you to Palette Town to meet our little Ashy. He'll be thrilled to come face to face with you. I've told him so much about you. You're welcome to bring anyone you like but please keep the number somewhat low. I can't afford you feed six people and Ash. He has your appetite. I'll be waiting.
Love, Delia
"Our little Ashy?" Solomon asked. "Oh no… Maybe I should tell Yugi. But, how would he take it? Maybe I should tell Yami first then he can tell Yugi. But Yami has a really foul temper. Oh Trusdale, what have you gotten me into?"
While Solomon was thinking Yugi got out of bed and proceeded to wake up the all mighty snoring pharaoh.
"Hey Yami," Yugi said while nudging his friend who was in the bed across the room from his own. "It's eleven."
Yami rolled onto his right side and said, "Wake me when it's one. I need my sleep."
"You promised to spend the day with me," Yugi said. "Come on."
"I know that Yugi but I have a feeling it's best to sleep all day," Yami said. "Trouble is afoot. There will also be life changes ahead."
"Quit acting like that," Yugi said crossing his arms. "When I'm done brushing my teeth I expect you to be out of bed. Unless you want me to bring Grandpa in here again."
Yami shuddered and said, "Solomon is very strong for such a small man. He dragged me to the kitchen table last time. I had rugburn for weeks. I guess I'll get up."
"Good," Yugi said. "Get dressed while you're at it. You can't parade in pyjamas all day."
"Sure I can," Yami said. "Not like it matters."
"Yami," Yugi said while looking at his friend with a somewhat stern look in his face.
"You win," Yami said. "I still think I'm right."
"Good," Yugi said then went into the bathroom and brushed his teeth while Yami put on black jeans and a navy t-shirt. Yugi walked into the bedroom and saw Yami asleep on his feet.
"Wake up," Yugi said while nudging Yami.
"Eh what?" Yami said in a daze. "I guess I dozed off."
"I can see that," Yugi said. "Have Grandpa start breakfast."
Yami sighed then went downstairs and Yugi put on his usual attire and went downstairs.
When he arrived he saw Solomon and Yami staring at a letter in amazement.
"What is it?" Yugi asked the group.
"Holy crap," Yami said.
"I'm with you my boy," Solomon said.
"What?" Yugi asked. "You can tell me."
"We have to go to Palette Town," Yami said. "I don't understand why but since your father is gone you must go in his place."
"Why's that?" Yugi asked.
"It's a woman's wish," Yami said. "We're leaving tomorrow. Got it?"
"I guess," Yugi said still confused.
"I'll explain on the way tomorrow," Solomon said.
"Lets go," Yami said.
"Alright," Yugi said then walked out the door with Yami close behind.
"Where are we going first?" Yami asked.
"To the station," Yugi replied. "I invited Joey, Tristen, Serenity, and Jennifer."
"Why her?" Yami asked.
"Jennifer is my friend," Yugi said. "Just stay out of her way."
"Her temper is even worse then Joey's," Yami said. "Just thinking back reminds me of all the pain of being beaten senseless."
"Well she doesn't like people drawing attention to her height," Yugi said simply. "So she's a little tall you don't need to go on about it."
"She's taller then Kaiba," Yami shouted. "You can't help but draw attention to her height!"
"Now Yami," Yugi said. "She is who she is."
"What are you talking about," Yugi and Yami heard behind them.
Yami turned around and came face to face with a seven-foot girl with short messy brown hair, a faded blue jacket, a red shirt, and black cords with six pockets. "N-nothing," Yami said nervously.
"Oh really," the girl shouted then cracked her knuckles.
"Jennifer please calm down," Yugi said.
"Not until Yami explains," Jennifer said.
"Yugi was telling me why you beat the crap out of me last time," Yami said. "That's all."
"Is that true?" Jennifer asked Yugi.
"Yes it is," Yugi replied. "So please calm down."
"Alright," Jennifer said. "But only because I trust your word."
"Okay then," Yugi said. "Why aren't you with everyone?"
"I had to pick up food and drinks," Jennifer said while pointing to the spilt pop. "Then I heard something about my height so I came and scared the crap out of Yami."
"Well," Yugi said. "Let's go to the station Yami has something to explain to everyone."
"But Solomon said he would," Yami said.
"I can tell you understand," Yugi said. "Now lets go."
"Fine," Yami said reluctantly then Yugi, Yami, and Jennifer went to the station and met up with Joey, Serenity, and Tristen.
"Hey Yug and Yam," Joey said while waving. "What's up?"
"I have somewhat good news," Yami said. "But we won't know for sure until tomorrow."
"What is it?" Serenity asked.
"Yugi might have a brother," Yami replied.
"Holy crap," Everyone but Yami and Serenity shouted.
"When did that happen?" Tristen asked.
"It doesn't say," Yami said. "We'll find everything out tomorrow."
"You already said that," Joey said.
"I did?" Yami asked.
"Looks like the old man is getting senile," Jennifer said.
"I'm not old," Yami shouted.
"True," Jennifer said. "You aren't old you're ancient."
"Shut up," Yami shouted.
"Oh no," Serenity said quietly. "Poor Yami."
"Not one person told me to shut up and got away with it," Jennifer said the put Yami in a headlock.
"Yam's getting his ass kicked by a chick," Joey said. "I need to start bringing a camera with me for all our gatherings."
"Jen please put Yami down," Serenity said.
"Okay," Jennifer said then dropped Yami.
"Thanks a lot," Yami shouted.
"Watch it," Jennifer said. "I'm in a bad enough mood as is."
"You'd better not act like this tomorrow," Yami said. "If Yugi has a brother I don't want him to think you're a murderer."
"Murderer?" Jennifer shouted. "Look who's talking mister I'll banish you to the Shadow Realm!"
"She has a point," Yugi said.
"Not you too," Yami said. "Serenity must be on my side."
"I'm with Jen and Yugi on this one," Serenity said.
"Joey?" Yami asked.
"Don't get me involved bro," Joey said. "I need to live."
"You too Tristen?" Yami asked.
"I enjoy being able to breathe," Tristen said.
"I guess I'm alone," Yami said. "But still!"
"Don't fight battles you can't win," Yugi said. "Jennifer is bigger and stronger then all of us."
"Hell yeah," Jennifer said cheerfully.
"Lets go off into the arcade," Joey said. "To celebrate Yug's brothaness."
"We don't even know if he has a brother," Serenity said.
"Then we'll celebrate togethaness," Joey said.
"Togetherness?" Tristen asked.
"Yeah," Joey said. "We neva spend any time together as the entire group. Excluding Téa 'course."
"I kind of miss her," Serenity said.
"I sure don't," Joey, Yami, and Tristen said.
"Why's that?" Serenity asked.
"Too many speeches," Joey said. "Yet she hung out wit Yug outta pity."
"You don't need to remind me," Yugi said.
"Oh yeah," Serenity said then knelt by Yugi and put her hand on his shoulder.
"It's okay," Yugi said. "I have true friends now."
"Yeah," Serenity said. "When will we meet up tomorrow?"
"How about noon," Yugi suggested.
"Okay," Serenity said. "At noon."
"Fine by me," Joey said. "Noon it is."
"I'm coming too," Tristen said.
"If Serenity goes I go," Jennifer said.
"Then it's decided," Yugi said. "We'll meet here at noon tomorrow. But until then we'll go to the arcade and play some games."
So until four every played games at the arcade. Joey was beaten in every game by Yugi and Jennifer while Serenity and Tristen just watched. Yami just took over for Yugi whenever he lost. Then they all split up to get some rest for the next day where there will be many changes.
Me: There we are. First chapter of my first fanfic on here. Booyah!
