Magic The Gathering
Journey for the Truth
This Fan Fiction is based off of the card game Magic: The Gathering, owned by Wizards of the Coast, with a twist of, Yu-Gi-Oh owned by Kazuki Takahashi. I don't own Magic: The Gathering or Yu-Gi-Oh. All card referencing is done from my own personal experience, , or the official Magic: The Gathering rules. Any referencing to Yu-Gi-Oh is minimal. I never read the manga and my only knowledge is from the TV.
So if u can get past this… Sit back… read… and enjoy… ^.^

Prologue – Slow Start
A silence fell in room C212 as the physics students left for their lunch break. Inside was one small boy packing his books into a stuffed backpack quickly scrounging around to leave for the cafeteria. He finally organized his bag and ran for the door, but slammed his fragile body into another and fell to the ground. The young boy looked up to see a large, scary figure in the entrance of the doorway. The figure was a student who donned a leather jacket and a grunt by each of his shoulders, typical for a school bully.
"Ned… Wurmer?" The large figure asked.
The small boy felt a bead of sweat start on his brow and slowly move to his cheek. "Yes…. How can…", but before he could finish the thug picked him up and pinned him up on the wall to the right of the door. The bully let his two men enter the room so they could get a glimpse of their victim.
"Well Ned", he paused to turn and grin to his grunts, "I hear you are the smartest freshmen here at Chestnut High School."
"Well my GPA is 4.0 and my IQ is…." The brute slammed him hard on the wall.
"That's great… so I'm gonna make a deal for ya." He put Ned on his feet. Ned stumbled and regained his balance. He looked at the three bullies. They looked at him grinning. "Simple as this. You do our homework," the bully put his fist in Ned's face, "or we get to beat you up for the next few years."
Ned stood there looking deeply into the fist as if it was going to give him the answer.
"Refuse? Well this will be fun." The two grunts grabbed Ned by his arms and held him up off the ground again. The leader cracked his knuckles and licked his lips. "I usually start with the face, but since you're so young I'll pound on your chest till you stop breathing."
"Ya know Charles," a voice echoed from the doorway, which made the three bullies turn to look, "if he stops breathing you won't have anyone to do you're homework for you." Another figure emerged from the doorway. His hair was poofy like a small Afro. He wore a red jacket with a black collar, blue jeans, and white shoes. The boy stood in the doorway, arms crossed and glaring at Charles the leader.
"Oh great… Mikey, what the hell do you want?" Charles nodded to the other two and they put Ned on the ground.
"Oh nothing." Mikey began as he walked into the class grabbing Ned and brought him over to the center of the classroom.
"Hey that's our nerd!" Said one of the grunts.
Mikey looked at Ned and leaned down. "Don't worry," he whispered, "these guys won't see it coming." Mikey stood straight up and quickly turned his glare once more to the three, "And now I should ask what you're doing."
Charles chuckled and rubbed his head with his hand. "Oh Mikey," he began changing his voice to one that seemed kind, "we were just asking if the little guy knew the lunch special."
Mikey began to laugh uncontrollably. The gang looked dumbfounded at him. "What's so funny?" The other bully asked.
Mikey rubbed the tears from his eyes, "It's just funny how you guys get stupider every time you get someone to do your homework. If you really knew what was good for you, ya would do it yourself."
Charles was angry and began to yell "Who the hell do you think you are? You want to get your ass kicked along with the kid?"
"Well for one fighting is against the Code of Conduct at this school," Mikey paused lightly pushing Ned back away from him, "and secondly… you couldn't lay one finger on me let alone beat me up."
The thugs started to get angry, "We'll just see!" One of the thugs lunged at Mikey with his fists ready to punch, but Mikey was ready and dodged the hit making the thug ram into the desk behind him.
"GET HIM!"
The three surrounded Mikey and attacked all at once. Though out numbered Mikey quickly assessed the situation and ducked down to roll out of the way. The three could not stop and slammed their heads into each other. Mikey quickly moved towards the door. "So, not only are you stupid, but you also can't fight. Wow you suck." Charles and his gang stood up slowly rubbing their hurt heads. "So the question is what WERE you gonna do to Ned?" Mikey asked with a smile.
Charles looked violently at Mikey. "You forget that fast? We were gonna beat him up unless he did our homework."
Mikey held his hand around his ear to help him hear "I'm sorry," he said with slight sarcasm, "I didn't catch that."
Charles stood up quickly and yelled "We were gonna kick his ass for not doing our homework!"
Mikey smiled widely. "That's all I needed to hear. How about you Mr. Gardener?" Out side of the class emerged a tall man in a navy suite.
Charles squalled like a girl, "Principal Gardener! Sir, how are you this fine day?"
"Charles, I've had enough of you." The principal waved his hand and two other teachers grabbed Charles and the other boys. "Now let's take a trip to my office. Looks like I'll be phoning your parents."
"Damn it all!" Charles yelled as the boys went along with the teachers and their heads held low.
Principal Gardener turned to Mikey, "Thank you Mikey… Charles and his friends have been fairly bad and sneaky these past few months."
"No problem Principal Gardener." Mikey looked at Ned, "And are you okay Ned?"
"Yes…. Thank you very much Mikey," Ned said with a smile, "I hope those boys get what they deserve."
"Oh yeah." Mikey looked out in the hall as Charles and his gang were being dragged away. Mikey ran out into the hallway and yelled down the to them. "Hey Charles!"
Charles and the others turn. "What do you want?" Charles said with a mean look.
"The lunch special you wanted to know… It's tuna salad."
