I sat down on the huge stairs that reaches the bottom of the walkway. I sat there watching the sunset all by myself. The only thing with me was my deck in my right pocket. I slowly took out the cards out of my pocket and started to look at it. The first card was the dark magician next was silent magician lv 4. I sighed and looked back at the sunset. The wind started to pick up and my white flowing hair was cared in the wind. When the wind had stopped moving so did my hair.
The sunset was full of reds, yellows, and pinks. Here there was this magnificent sunset and I couldn't put my cards way. The cards where my favorite but…this sunset reminded me of someone I had cared about, still care about.
The class bell that rang to leave class on Monday. It was 2 days after we had went over David's house to try out our decks. It was 3 days after we had gotten our decks. I had grabed my books and left with him. It was the last class of the day and made a left turn to get to my locker.
"So…" Started David "You doing anything this weekend?"
"But its Monday and no I don't know what I'm doing this weekend. Why?"
"Oh nothing" said David and opened his locker.
I turned at him and smiled then opened my locker. I grabbed my book bag and my jacket and was going to walk out of the school when David said to me "Wait up!"
I turned around and waited for him. He was putting some of his books into his book bag and then slammed his locker. When he was walking to me, I smiled at him and turned back around not facing the exit. David was to the right of me and he had on the greenest jacket I have seen. It was a dark green jacket and light green stripes going left to right. I had walked home with David and Sam. When we were a few blocks away from the school.
"Guys, I got a nice addition to my deck." Said Sam and took out one of his trap cards and showed us. It was the card dark bribe.
"It'll go good with my Gem-knight. See the point of my deck is-"
A person who was walking the other way came up to us. He passed us and overheard our conversation.
"Hello." he had said "You guys aren't talking about duel monsters are you?"
All of us turned to him. He was wearing red and the outfit and had a gold eye. It was in his left eye.
"Yes we are…why?" said David with a very confused look on his face.
The man had a smile on his face and said "Oh no reason…"
"You have a deck!" said Sam with a smile on his face
The man looked at his right pocket and pulled out the deck. "This?" said the man and look at him.
David nudged Sam and started slowly walking. Sam turned at David and then back at the man.
"Do you want to duel?" asked the man in red holding out his deck shaking it. I had then turned to David then back at the man.
"I could beat you! You're just an old man." Said Sam and David kicked his leg. Sam didn't seem bothered by it and still looked at the man,
He chuckled "An old man…Fine…You think your good?"
David had then punched Sam in the back and he turned around saying "What?"
"Do you know what you're doing?" asked David and I looked back at the man in red. When I had looked at him he looked back at me with a smile. I was shocked and looked back at David. Sam turned back around and looked at the man with the gold eye. "I've got to do some school work…" said Sam and we all started walking back home. I was walking backwards looking at the man has he turned the other way and walked away from us. "He looked familiar" I said in my head. "It must have been his long hair cut at a point, that it was white, how he stood up tall and proud or the way he walked. It was something like that."
"That guy was a creep" said David "did you see the way he looked at us…"
"I wanted to duel him." Said Sam "But no, mister worried here, had to ruin it. Thanks David!"
"Hey!" said David and stopped "I was looking out for the all of us! I don't know who that guy was, for all we know he could-"
"Could and if, those are out of my dictionary. Thank you very much!" Said Sam and started walking home.
"I'm not done talking to you!" said David and started walking, I followed.
They were arguing the whole time so I decided to go home. I couldn't take another second of the arguing.
When I had walked though my door I took off my shoes and my dad called out "Ann?"
My dad had dark brown hair and brown eyes. He was a very tall and he was handsome looking, if I was his age.
"Yeah?" I said and put my back pack in the closet.
"Can you pick out a movie for tonight? I was hoping to watch a funny movie. Oh, your mother will be home in a few hours. I'm making dinner now."
I went to the movie cabinet and was looking for a movie. When my dad said, "Ann, could you wait a min? I want to finish watching the news on T.V."
"Okay." I said and I sat down on the couch. There was the new anchors were on the new sitting there saying "…it is 4:03 on a Monday afternoon and next we'll get to the top stories."
It then broke for commercials and it was talking about shampoo. The next commercial said "Duel monsters now made the dark hole spell card. Get it while it lasts! This card and many others were made my Maximillion Pegasus himself…"
It then showed the picture of the man and I was stunned. He looked like the guy that was on the street. I was in a state of shock not knowing what was going on. My dad said to me "Ann what's the matter?"
"I, nothing dad." I said and walked out of the family room "I don't feel like eating…"
"But I am making it?"
"I'm tired." I said and closed my bedroom door. I then laid there on my bed. The only thing I could think now is if I was ever going to see the person that made the cards. It was an honor to meet that person even though I had never really met him. "Will I ever see him again?"
My alarm had rung on a Tuesday morning. I gently put my hand on the clock to put it on snooze and turned to the other side and lay on my bed. I couldn't fallback a sleep so I just got out of bed. I shut off my alarm and looked for my deck. I had then found the deck and I looked at the cards in it. "Oh silent magician lv 4," I said to myself "What a very helpful card."
Then I put it back in the deck and shuffled it. "Ann" said a voice and I called back out it.
"Yes" I said
"Someone is here to see you." Said Dad
I thought to myself that it was maybe David coming over asking for a duel before school like he did yesterday. So I quickly ran down the stairs to where my dad was sitting with the man with the golden eye.
After I saw him I stood in my tracks. I wasn't moving an inch. I didn't know if I was in fear and shock or honored to see him.
"Ann this is Mr. Maximillion Pegasus." Said my dad and the guy in the red suit stood up.
"Hello," said Maximillion with a smile.
"He has told me that you collect duel monster cards." Said dad with a smile on his face
"Yeah I do." I said
"Well that's just great!" said Maximillion
"Ann, come and sit down." Said Dad and pointed to a seat next to him. He then sat down himself.
I slowly walked over looking at the red suited guy and then sat down. Maximillion Pegasus then sat down when I did.
"Ann," said Dad slowly. I had then turned to him just looking at him. "I have been waiting to tell you since…um…a long time…"
Dad then put his hand on my shoulder and mom came into the room.
"Good morning," said mother and put her cup on the counter and sat down to the left of me. "Hello" she also said and looked at Maximillion then at me.
"When you were very young a baby maybe a year or younger we had adopted you. I know it must have been different to grow up with a dad with brown hair and a mother being blond. See your mother couldn't have a kid and we wanted one so badly that we adopted you…This is your real dad," said Father and pointed to Maximillion. I was blinking quickly trying to make sense of all this and my mom started crying.
"Your name is Anna…Pegasus" said Father and he was getting a bit angry and sat up from his seat. Father went to the kitchen and put his hands on the either sides of the sink. Maximillion just sat there and did nothing with his hands crossed on the table. I stared at him thinking to myself "why, oh, why did you ever come here? I would give up my duel monster cards to be with my mom and father even if we did or didn't get along. What can I do now?...Why nothing, I going to be forced to live with Maximillion and be Ann Pegasus his 16 year old daughter. Oh great…"
"Ann," said Maximillion "I know it's going to be a hard transition but I think you'll handle it."
I looked away from him and turned to my mom who was crying to the left of me and I put my hand on her shoulder. Maximillion sighed and stood up from his seat and said "I'm sorry it's going to be hard for the three of you but I didn't even know I had a daughter if I did I would have come sooner. I'm sorry…"
Maximillion then extended his hand and I had slowly grabbed it.
