Me: Hello All!
Bakura: What are you planning, now?
Me: I saw a story about YuGiOh and MySpace, so I decided I want to write my own!"
Bakura: …why??
Me: …..I'm Bored
Bakura: --
Me: Read and review at the end, mmk kids? It gets good D
Yami: sighs Do I have to…?
Me: jabs with a pole
Yami: holds up cardboard sign, speaks in a monotone Starvation Darling [current penname does not own YGO or MySpace….Don't sue.
Me:
"Shiyu!" her mother called up her stairs again, "Are you getting ready for bed?"
"Hai, okaasan!" the teenage girl called back, but was really only in her pajamas at her computer, furiously typing away with her friends.
"I'm going to sleep, get yourself off to school in the morning!"
"Hai, oyasumi nasai!" And with that, she heard her mother walk to her bedroom and close the door.
Now, she was able to finish her conversations in peace. Not only that, but she was finishing the touch ups on her new background – the teen smiled, her straight white teeth gleaming from the soft glow of her computer screen. She loved making her own codes and backgrounds and layouts – it was all amazing decoration, ways to show your true colors. Whore trains in bulletins, comments in scroll boxes, you name it. If it was possible to put it on MySpace, then Shiyu could make it.
A tiny orange box at the bottom of her computer blinked, and she clicked it. It was her friend, Elie.
Elie: Shiyu-kun, what's the code for the link? I forgot…
Shiyu smiled and replied back.
Shi-Kun3: a href"paste" Text. /a
Elie: Thank you!!!
Shiyu laughed. Elie was usually the only one up this late at night she talked to, and one of her best friends. Hideki was a strong over achiever and usually asleep by now, Junoshi was probably playing his games, and Raziel-kun was Elie's sister, so chances are he was reading over her shoulder or playing games with Junoshi.
All was well, however, because not only was she talking to Elie, but she was making small talk with her many MySpace acquaintances. Comments, messages, picture comments, bulletins – you name it. But, as the night grew on, it people began to dwindle off. First, messages slowed, then comments ceased and bulletins seemed frozen on the 'recently posted' board. As 11 rolled around, even Elie retreated to bed.
Elie: Shiyu-chan, Raziel-sama is bothering me to get off and get some sleep… I am sleepy, I'll see you in the morning before school?
Shi-Kun3: Alright, nasai El-kun. I'll see you in the morning!
With that being said, her friend logged off.
Shiyu stayed up. Her speakers beating gentle J-Pop beats at her [currently it was the opening theme of Chobits. After she finished her HTML codes, she applied it to her account and saved – Perfect!
It was a skinny layout, with hidden comments and drop-down layouts to show her favorite anime, games and bands. Her top friends were her best, and her background music was an amazing piano-inspired theme from Advent Children (AN: ALL MY FANS OUT THERE! D) She grinned, satisfied until next week.
She returned to her homepage, but paused. New friends request…? It was nearly midnight. She clicked the link, and decided to check it out – knowing her curiosity would get the best of her before the morning anyway.
The display picture was a boy wearing dark pants and his shirt part way unbuttoned, positioned in front of a mirror with a camera in his hand and the other hand in his pocket. He had long white-blonde hair covering part of his eyes – but, from what Shiyu could tell, he looked close to her age. So, she added him.
By the time she went back to her homepage, she noticed new messages. Going to her inbox, she saw that it was from the boy. She opened it.
Hey, why up so late??
Shiyu replied back, 'I could ask you the same thing. Do I know you?'
Once again, by the time she got to her homepage, he had replied back.
No, but you could. I promise, I'm not a stalker or a creep. I live within a 10 mile radius of you, I was browsing for people around my school and rival areas. You just happened to be awake, and your picture caught my eye. Nice hair.
Shiyu smiled. Her hair – just as was in her Display picture – was honey blonde, with pink tips and ebony and ivory pieces through it. She loved her hair, but was close to being expelled from her school for dress code issues. However, being a good in class, attendance and citizenship, they couldn't mark her as a troublemaker. She sighed, thinking of Jikega-san, her ex boyfriend, who's middle name might as well have been trouble. Tucking a piece of hair behind her ear, Shiyu smiled and typed: 'Thank you, which school do you attend? Why are you up so late?'
She didn't bother going to her homepage, just clicked her inbox and the strangers reply.
I'm a Domino student. And I can't sleep, I'm feeling restless, but all my friends are asleep, so I got online.
'That often happens to me,' Shiyu wrote more freely, letting her guard down. For some reason, she felt something about this person – he didn't feel threatening, and perhaps they could become friends outside of the internet. She smiled and continued, 'My friends fall asleep far too early for me, they leave me bored. I go to Mizuke Academy.'
Send.
Click.
Read.
Mizuke? Wow, that's closer than I thought! I live in that area, too. My friend owns the game shop that marks the half-way point. We go there a lot.
Shiyu laughed, 'I go there all the time!' she wrote, 'It's amazing we live that close, haha. I love games, I wouldn't be surprised if we'd ran into each other.'
The night bore on with the two talking and getting to know each other. They had the same taste in music, love for games, fashion – everything. Shiyu loved talking to her new friend, and didn't even notice that –
'Wow, it's 2 am.' She wrote, 'I have school in the morning, sorry. Can we talk tomorrow?'
I'm looking forward to it. By the way…what's your name?
Shiyu hesitated for a moment. 'Shiyu. Yours?'
Call me Bakura-San. You have a very pretty name, it matches your very pretty face.
Shiyu blushed, then typed 'Aw, arigato. Good night, Bakura-kun.'
Sweet dreams, Shiyu-kun.
Shiyu turned off her computer and crawled into her bed, giddy as she was sleepy. As she closed her eyes her brain was filled with the person she had just met. They had so much in common, and it was so easy to talk to him…and he lived so close…
As she drifted off to sleep, she had no idea what lay ahead of her.
Me: OooOOooOoOOooOoO!!!!!!!
Yami: The plot thickens?
Me: nods Well, well. There's chapter one, please read and review bows They make me work faster -
Bakura: It takes a few to give her motivation

Yami/Bakura: ….
