My name's Yami, I'm an Egyptian and I've lived in America for most of my life. My mother always told me one of our ancestors was Egyptian king. I never believed her, but she was determined to change my mind. She gave me a small black and gold box. It had silver details and the eye of Ra on it. My mother never gave me the key for it, all she said was "You will meet the one with the key, when the time comes." It was not like her to speak in riddles. School was normal today, ran a few laps in gym, had a mishap in engineering, and the school lunch was foul, yep the normal day in high school! After school me and my friends, Anzu Mazaki , another Egyptian, and Joey Wheeler, where at my house playing video games. Anzu lived with me since her parents had a bit of a, falling out, and she didn't want to be in the middle of that mess. Luckily, I live two houses down.

"Joey! Stop hogging the chips!" Anzu yell at Joey with her Egyptian accent cracking. "hey you should have brought your own!" It was obvious Anzu was getting irritated, so I decided to step in. "Joey, I did say to get chips for all of us." He looked very confused. "You said to bring a bag for me!" "No, I said to bring chips for all of us. I'll prove it too!" I pulled out my phone and showed Joey the conversation we had. "Oh, my bad. Here have the rest." he said with a touch of guilt. "In the name of Ra, you are one of the most irritating people I've had the displeasure of meeting." Anzu said peeved off. "Don't you love me for that Anzu?" I tuned in. "Well, I love you Yami, but not for that." She said. "Well I better go get some more chips, hope you don't mind me leaving you two love birds alone." Joey said on his way out. "WE ARE NOT LOVE BIRDS!" Me and Anzu shouted. "Yeah yeah yeah, that's what they all say. Plus, did she, or did she not just say she loved you?" "I was making a JOKE! And what do you mean we're love birds!?" I shouted. "I see you two holding hands and trading kisses when you think no one is looking!" "We do not!" Anzu said with her cheeks a bright rosy red. "You see! She's blushing! That's how you know you do!" Joey said laughing his guts out. "You don't have any proof of that, so HAH!" I said being a bit to confident. "Actually, I do." He pulled his phone out and showed a picture of us kissing. "You see there that's….um…..I got nothing." I tried to think of something. "Now, you be nice to me, or I show the entire school." He said with a devilish grin. I snatched the phone out of his hand. "Or I can delete the picture and any others like it" I deleted the picture and went through his phone. "I'll tell the school about you and Mia Valentine to." "What do you mean about me and Mia?." "I know you two be flirting after school on the phone." I showed him their little chat and handed him his phone. "Nice time black mailing you, now go buy us some chips." I said while pushing him out the door.

Me and Anzu slumped back on the couch with a sigh of relief. "Now that he's gone, you want to get back to the race?" I asked her. She got close, put her head on my shoulder, and snuggled up next to me. "No, I want to watch a movie." she said with a yawn. Her long blond flowing hair brushed my cheek. Her light blue eyes shined in the light. I gave her a kiss on the forehead and she giggled and got closer. "Before the movie, I want to show you something, it's a box my mom gave me." I stood up and went into my room to get the box. I was in my room trying to find for a few minutes. "Cool, what's in it?" She said with a spark of curiosity in her eye. "I have no idea, she never gave me the key before she left for Egypt, all she said was that I'll meet the one with the key when the time was right, or something like that." "Weird, my dad gave me an old key and said a very similar thing. I carry it with me everywhere." I started to wonder. "You don't think?" "No, not likely." "It's worth a shot" I said. Slowly she put the key in the lock, and it fits. She unlocked the small chest and slowly she opened it. "IM BACK WITH THE CHIPS!." Joey yelled making us jump in shock. "Was I interrupting something?" he said with his iconic devilish smile. "Uh, yes but not what you're thinking." Anzu said trying not to strangle him. "Can we get back to opening the box now." I was getting impatient.

I opened the box a bit faster, but was interrupted by a car alarm going off. "FOR CRYING OUT CLUCKING LOUD, OPEN THE BOX ALREADY!" I was peeved off. I swiftly opened the box, my mood brightened when I saw what was inside. There was gold, silver, diamonds, gems, and jewels! I felt something at the bottom, like a stack of cards almost. "Wait a second." I said. "What's wrong Yami? We're rich, there shouldn't be any problems now!" Anzu said joyfully. "First off, we're rich? Second off, there is something at the bottom." I reached in to pull them out. Just as I thought, a small deck of thick paper cards, gold cards, purple cards, red cards, blue cards, green cards, and black cards, all with inscriptions, stars, and pictures on them. "What are they Yami?" Joey asked. "They look like trading cards, which is weird." I said with a bit of confusion."Wait, there's three more." I notice the last three cards and inspected them. There was a long, red, snake like dragon with two jaws, a giant, blue stone soldier with a creepy face, and a golden, metallic eagle with a ring on the back. I heard a dark and evil sounding voice saying, "Slifer the Sky Dragon, Obelisk the Tormenter, the Winged Dragon of Ra! The three Egyptian gods will rise again!" I started to black out, but I managed to say one thing. "Going down!"

So how was it? This was my first story on here and I wanted to know what you guys think.
