I just wanted to say that this story doesn't revolve around my OC. She just happens to be Crow's match-up. ;) Also, for the sake of my plot line, the WRGP is still going on, (there's a break for all teams, in order to rest up, etc.) Aki still has her powers, Bruno doesn't exist (simply because there are already to many characters in this story, that I don't need one extra to try and remember -.-;) and Yliaster is defeated.

By the way, I have a total of 4 chapters already finished, so if it's been a long time since I updated, pound me with PM's and I promised I'll update. (:

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Gi Oh 5D's.

Zora tapped her foot against the pavement as a turquoise D-Wheel skidded to a stop in front of her. Zora had been waiting a good 15 minutes on the sidewalk waiting for her new occupant of the art studio apartment to arrive. Said person was 10 minutes late. Zora was about ready to scold said person until they took off their black helmet and swung their boot clad foot off of the D-Wheel to reveal a huge mass of strawberry blonde hair. Zora looked her over carefully, she looked to be around 18, and she was rather short about 5 '4. The girl wore dark washed skinny jeans with black boots that stopped mid-thigh. She also had a turquoise tank top, that matched the color of her D-Wheel and a leather jacket, Zora could vaguely see the sand dollar necklace dangling from her neck. Zora then took in the girl's features. She had high cheek bones, fair skin and fierce blue-green eyes.

"I'm so sorry I'm late, Miss. Zora. My parents and siblings were holding me up and you'll never believe the traffic on the Daedalus Bridge!" The red-headed female exclaimed setting her helmet on the seat of her D-Wheel while blowing her bangs out of her eyes.

Zora's face softened. She seemed to be a polite and responsible girl. "Its fine my dear," Zora said wrapping her arm around the girl's shoulders, "You're here now and that's all that matters." She smiled and directed the girl to the stairs that would lead her to her new apartment. "The moving truck arrived with your things a couple of hours prior to you coming here and the movers have moved all your furniture and belongings into your room. I hope they have arranged it to your liking."

"Thank you Miss. Zora! I'll be sure to get my first month's rent to you soon!" The female replied ascending the stairs that lead to her new home. The girl stared at the door for a second before turning to Zora who was waiting at the bottom of the stairs, "Where are the keys?"

"Oh silly me, right here Miss. Davis." Zora replied throwing a set of keys towards the girl.

The keys landed in the girl's hand, "Oh please Miss. Zora call me Ally. Miss. Davis is way too formal." She giggled, placing the keys in the lock and twisting them to the left.

"As you wish Ally," the older female replied and then departed from the stairs and into her own apartment.

Ally turned the knob and entered the apartment. When she walked in the first thing she saw was her leather sofa, a small wooden coffee table with her laptop placed on top and an old television set in the left corner of the room. Behind the sofa her double bed resided in the back of the room against the far wall on the left side of the bed was her small wooden nightstand. In the far right corner there was a refrigerator, kindly provided by Zora, some cabinets with minimal counter space, a sink with a drying rack for dishes next to it, and after the cabinets there was a stove and microwave. On the right wall was the door to the bathroom. There were very few windows in the room, but she didn't seem to mind all that much. She could just go out and buy some lamps later.

"At least it's clean," Ally commented, taking in her new surroundings. The walls were painted a beige color and had hardwood flooring, "It's actually nice for a studio apartment."

Ally shrugged off her leather jacket and toed off her black boots and placed them over the couch. She glanced up at the clock above the doorway, it was 11 o' clock. She had to be at her new job at Café la Geen in half an hour. Ally sighed and walked over to the bureau on the wall next to her nightstand. She gathered the standard uniform for the café, a white frilly shirt, black skirt with suspenders and a black bow tie. She glanced up at the clock again and then headed toward the bathroom, preparing herself for an afternoon of refilling cups upon cups of coffee.

Ally grabbed yet another pot of Blue Eyes Mountain coffee. She forcefully gripped the pot and stomped outside to serve the all high and mighty Jack Atlas yet another cup of the god forsaken coffee. It wasn't even a good drink either. It was so bitter and completely repulsive in her opinion. Jack didn't even sweeten it; he drank it black, the thought made her gag. As she drew nearer to Jack's table she saw that a short man, well short to some, taller than her, with spiky orange hair, grey eyes and multiple criminal tattoo's all over his face had come and was now standing by Jack. He wore a headband with a couple piercings sticking out, she had to admit, he was pretty cute. As Ally came closer to the table she could hear the man yelling at Jack.

"You're seriously spending more money on that damned Blue Eyes Mountain crap?"

Finally, someone who understood that the coffee tasted like shit and more shit mixed together.

"Crow, you don't understand, it's Blue Eyes Mountain Coffee."

Crow. What an interesting name, it suited him. She eyed him warily. Something seemed different about him, something that interested her. Ally shook her head of her thoughts and continued walking over to the table outside.

"But it costs 3,000 yen (1) Jack!" The man, Crow retorted crossing his arms over his chest.

Ally came over and poured more coffee into Jack's cup. Crow looked over at the girl, eyeing her over. "Where's Stephanie?" He inquired.

"Dunno, don't care. All I know is that it's my job to serve Mr. Blue Eyes Mountain now." Ally responded. Jack shot a glare at Ally.

"It's Mr. Atlas or King Jack, to you kid." Jack shot back, grabbing his cup and drinking more of his coffee. Ally rolled her eyes at him.

"Hey, if she can't call you that, can I? It suits you after all." Crow responded gesturing to Jack's cup of coffee. Ally giggled into the back of her hand at this. Jack scowled and returned to flipping through the newspaper.

"I don't believe your services are required anymore, Miss." Jack spat, shooting a glare at Ally.

Ally bowed mockingly, "Whatever you say, Mr. Blue Eyes Mountain." With that she left, coffee pot in hand.

Crow chuckled, resulting in another glare from Jack. "Hey, she's funny."

"Yea, well next time she comes by you talk to her." Jack replied to Crow's statement, rolling his eyes in the process as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Maybe I will, besides it won't be long before you need another cup of coffee anyway." Crow said cheekily, taking a seat next to him. With that Jack looked down into his cup to see that he indeed needed another cup of coffee. He huffed and set the cup back down on the table to wait for his waitress to come back and refill his cup.

Ally was in the kitchen, currently brewing some more coffee, when she peeked out the window. Looks like Mr. High and Mighty needed another cup of his precious coffee. Ally smirked, grabbed the pot and walked back outside. She steadily approached the table, trying to make Jack's life miserable by prolonging his intake of his special coffee.

"Do you need some more coffee, Mr. High and Mighty?" Ally asked Jack, smirking the whole time.

"Yes," he grumbled holding out his cup for Ally to take and refill.

Crow laughed at the altercation, "So what's your name?" he asked the red-head. He just as easily could've looked at her nametag, but where was the fun in that?

Ally quirked an eyebrow, it wasn't an odd question, but she didn't really think that she'd be making acquaintances her first day on the job, nonetheless her first day in Neo Domino City.

"My names Ally," she responded, offering a smile to the orange headed man.

He smiled back, "My name's Crow, and this is Jack, but I have a feeling you already knew that."

"Yea," Ally said, looking away from Crow to look at Jack, "we've meet."

Jack scoffed. "You should just be happy that I don't report you to your boss for acting rude to me."

Ally sighed, she couldn't lose this job, and if sucking up a little to Jack meant just that, she would, "Sorry," she murmured.

"I haven't seen you around before, did you just move here?" Crow asked, taking her attention away from Jack. He didn't know why, but Ally intrigued him. It was weird; it was almost as if he was drawn to her.

"Uh yea, today actually, I've had this job set up for awhile though." Ally answered. "I actually don't live that far away," She pointed across the way to Poppo Time, "I live in an apartment in that building over there."

"Wow, that's one huge coincidence because Jack, our friend Yusei and I live in an apartment there as well!" Crow exclaimed, he couldn't believe it, he had known that the art studio apartment was up for rent, but he had no clue that Zora finally found someone to rent it.

"Huh, well you learn something new every day." Ally laughed.

"Yea," Jack scoffed, taking another sip of his coffee. "Mind refilling me, Waitress?"

Ally cringed a little at the new nickname Jack gave her; he obviously gave it to her to get under her skin. She lightly fingered her sand dollar necklace and heaved a big sigh. "Sure thing, King."

"Ouch," Crow simply stated giving Ally a high five. "Looks like we've found someone to help tone down your big-ass ego, Jack."

Jack huffed. He seemed to be doing that a lot today. "Yea, well, just fill up the cup will you?"

"Yea, yea I was getting to that." Ally hissed snatching his cup and pouring more coffee into it.

"So, if you don't mind me asking, why did you move to Neo Domino?" Crow questioned.

Ally paused her pouring of Jack's coffee for a second, contemplating the question, that is until Jack coughed in order to show that his patience was wearing thin and he wanted his coffee… Now. She sighed and continued to pour. Stupid Jack Atlas, couldn't he see that she was busy talking? Some people are just plain rude.

"Well," Ally began as she finished pouring the coffee and handing the cup back to Jack, who snatched it back almost in fear that if she held it a second longer she would poison the coffee with her touch, "I finished high school early, and I thought that moving here will help me break into the world of dueling. This is just a temporary job."

"A duelist, eh?" Crow said, "Maybe we could duel sometime?"

"Sounds like a plan." Ally flashed a smile at Crow. She really liked him, really, really liked him, and she had no idea why. It was really strange when she thought about it, she never grew attached to people, not even when she first met her best friends back home had she been excited to meet them. It almost scared her, she never followed her heart, her head was her guide, and sadly it seemed that her guide had gone on vacation and had put her heart in charge of this operation. Damn heart.

Jack looked between the two, before sighing, "Can I at least get some more coffee before you two start flirting again?"

"Didn't I just refill your cup?" Ally asked, arching an eyebrow at Jack, her cheeks were tinged a light pink from his previous comment.

"So, your point?" Jack inquired.

"Oh well, it's coming from your pocket anyway." She said before pouring more coffee into his cup. For some reason Ally thought she'd be doing a lot of that over the next couple months.

1. 3,000 yen is equivalent to about $32 in the US. Yea, it's expensive coffee. xD
