Yugioh: Stepping Out

notes: don't owe Yugioh! Here's my new story and all! Here it is...

A five-year-old Joey Wheeler was being attacked by his own drunken father, how could he escaped? It was his own father's fault that his mother and sister left him cause of his father's drinking basis! Everyday it was like this, nobody knew who was Joey Wheeler, he never even left his old house which was in an old neighborhood where poor, lifeless people leaves! Joey cowered by the wall as he was hit by his father's belt once again, he screamed but nobody heard him since his house was all soundproof.

If you could call it a house. It was messy, old, breaking and nobody lived there except him and his father. "If you go out son, you'll be in bigger trouble than before," his father spat as he went out for the day for another drinking, Joey nodded quietly as he watched his father leave. He went to his room and began to sobbed on the bed, the only thing that could save him was his duel monster cards. Joey looked at his cards, someday, I'll be the best! I'll get out of here, no matter what! Joey thought angrily.

But Joey was afraid of the ouside world, the most frightened thing that he really hates was people touching him. Everytime his being touch, he always jumps and looks at the person afraid. Ten years later, Joey was now in high school and was now living in an apartment by himself. He has friends, along side by that, he has a crush someone named Seto Kaiba who runs Kaiba Corp., but he knew his still afraid of being touched ever since his father beat him.

"Hey man," Tristan said as he put an hand on his shoulder, Joey gasped as he turned around to see who it was. "Oh sorry, I totally forgot that your afraid of someone touching yea," Tristan said apologizing, "it's cool man," Joey replied as he tried to stop the shaking of his frightened body. "Has anybody seen Kaiba today?" Yugi asked as the others shook his head, "he usually comes to school if his not busy," Joey replied as everyone stared at him.

"Are you spying on him?" Anzu asked as Joey looked at her, "of course not! I don't spy on people!" Joey cried as Anzu smirked. "Any word from your sister lately?" Duke asked, "nah. Last time she called, it was like two months ago," Joey replied as Duke nodded. "Hey, wanna come to my place after school? We can play duel monsters if you like," Yugi said smiling, "sure. We'll Yami be there?" Ryou asked as his other half was listening in.

"Probably, his helping grandpa with the shop," Yugi explained. "I'll go, but Bakura might not come out though," Ryou replied as Yugi nodded. "I have other things to do after school Yugi, I have an after school Dance Program to go to," Anzu replied. "That's cool, if we see Mai, we'll tell her that your there," Yugi said as Anzu nodded, "hey Joey! Grandpa just have new cards in his game shop, he thinks you should check them out to boost your dueling deck," Yugi said smiling.

"All right. As long as they are cheap," Joey replied smiling as they all sat down to go and get class started. "Mr. Kaiba, why are you late?" The teacher asked suddenly as everyone looked up and saw Seto coming in, "what do you think? I have a business to run," Seto replied coldly as he saw everyone was staring at him. "Looks like Mr. Sunshine here is going to get in trouble," Joey said loudly as everyone smirked, "if I were you Wheeler, I wouldn't be talking if I were you," Seto replied.

"Oh! What are you gonna do?" Joey asked smirking, "does this frightens you?" Seto asked angrily as he began poking Joey at the side. Joey gasped as he looked at Kaiba, but instead saw an image of his father. "Kaiba, stop it!" Yugi cried angrily as everyone looked to see what's going on, "I don't see why his afraid of people touching him," Seto replied loudly as everyone laughed except Yugi and the others.

"Stop it man! Don't you see Joey has a blank look on his face!" Tristan cried angrily, Seto looked at Joey and snorted. "His a man, he should be able to take it," he said as the class roared with laughter, Seto smirked as he slapped Joey at the back and went towards his desk. Joey began to sobbed quietly, "see what you've done Kaiba!" Yugi cried angrily as he looked between Seto and Joey. "Father stop it! I'll do anything, I swear!" Joey yelled as everyone looked at him shocked.
