Chapter One of my first ever fanfic :D *happy dances*
Into The World Of Yugioh (yes I know it's a terrible name - live with it, okay?) is the story of a character I made up years ago named Crystal Spira, who is as much a part of the Yugioh world as Kaiba or the Mutt...i mean Joey ;)
Totally non-yaoi (sniff) and after the first few chapters it follows the basic story of Yugioh. My knowledge of egypt is pretty much non-existant so if i make mistakes TELL ME! That goes for mistakes about characters etc. too :)
Also, i know this chapter is the shortest chapter in existance buuuut it was basically just to set the scene, and pretty poorly written. I'll get into it later on - promise!
Oh, and when other characters come in they are going to have the dubbed names. They just are. So stop complaining. Stop.
Enjoy this extremely short chapter!
"C'mon Crystal!" Mat yells from the front door. I roll off my bed, sighing – you can't get a moment's peace in this place. We've been in Egypt for almost a month now, ever since Mat and I broke up from school for the summer. My brother's mad to come here again now he's finished school, I think to myself.
I feel a spasm of nerves in my stomach – Mat may have finished school but I haven't. I only just finished my last year of primary. In three weeks time I start a new school. I frown: I'd hated my primary school because I didn't fit in. What if I don't fit in at secondary school either? I shake my head, that's stupid – there are 15 times as many people at Donfield High than at my last school. I'll find somebody. I'll have friends. Tears prickle in my eyes and I wipe them away angrily. I won't cry.
"Crystal!?" I jump. Oops, I'd forgotten. Mat's showing me an old burial chamber today, mum and dad only discovered it a couple of weeks ago and haven't told anyone about it yet. An ancient pharaoh was supposedly buried around this area and they think they might have found his tomb, but they haven't dared open the thing up. Definitely more interesting than the normal old pots and bricks I get to see!
Mum and Dad are archaeologists, more specifically Egyptologists, so they spend a lot of time away from home and there's almost never more than one of my parents home at a time. Usually neither of them are. I'm always fine though - Mat looks after us. I smile; Mat misses mum and dad as much as I do. I guess that's why he came out here for the summer. I should be happy that we're all together for a few weeks, but my parents are too busy with this tomb to spend a lot of time with us. No. I scold myself, That's not fair. Mum and dad love their job, and this could be a huge breakthrough. They're happy. I frown again, But I'm not.
Well, there you have it! As this chapter was so short, i may merge chapters two and three together to make a nice long (err...ish) chapter two :) *Goes to write more*
