A/N: Here comes my first story. It's just a short thing. Probably wont have more than five minuscule chapters. I read so many OC stories, and - don't get me wrong - they're the bomb. But I wanted to look at Season 0/manga from a different perspective. (Which, I know, so far it's exactly the same as all the others. Gimme time bois)

Also, my writing is sh**. Have fun with that.

update: Changed "Jiro" to Prisoner 777. Wasn't sure if I wanted to use the anime or manga adaptation for that scene, but I eventually cherry picked the manga. Drives my point home so much better. *thumbs up*

[Awkward Edit 3/9/17] So yeah. Weird moment here. Going through and changing "Kuribara" to "Kurihara". Her name is Yukari Kurihara.

Cats outta the bag folks, I didn't make my OC's name up. I wanted to make this story as potentially cannon as possible, so I did my timeline research to see the "year" the manga takes place in. Did the math out for everyone's ages, annnd most relevantly... found the name Yukari Kurihara. It's on the list of Trueman's victims in GX. So I've got to go back and change it to the correct name. So if you see "Kuribara" anywhere, it means I missed it.


Kurihara, Yukari

Essay Title: "My Biggest Fear"

Here's a joke. Me. Writing. This. When you walked into class and said "write a paper in on your biggest fears" I rolled my eyes and thought, what are we, five? This is the Japanese education system, how about you give us an assignment that'll actually help with the college entrance exams? Then you added the twist at the end, "in all English". Suddenly all the high fives that were about to be given turned to collective groans. No one but Anzu Mazaki gives a lick about English. Even knowing that English is a second language for me at home still doesn't make me want to deal with this pain in the neck assignment.

That's what I thought at first. But you know what sensei? It didn't take me long to realize that this was an opportunity. In fact, it was a relief. When you had me pass the assignment down my row, I took a look at the guy two seats down, and that's when it hit me. This was my chance to tell someone the truth. Maybe you'll believe me, sensei, when I tell you what my biggest fear is. No one else seems to. They all roll their eyes at me when I tell them, but that's because they don't know. They haven't seen the things that I have.

So here it is: my biggest fear is Yugi Mutou. There's no other way for me to put this. Yugi Mutou is… he is... a sadistic freak. He's not afraid to hurt people if they take one step in the wrong direction. I know, sensei, that you've seen him in class shyly keeping to himself. He just sits there with his little group of friends, doing no harm to anybody. That's what you're thinking, right? Wrong. You're so wrong. And I'll tell you why. I bet you've heard the rumors, about that student, Tetsu Ushio who had to be sent to the hospital for hallucinations? Or even worse, the whispers around the faculty room about Domino students being involved in the horrible Prisoner 777 incident. Yugi Mutou was at the center of them all. Strap in sensei, you're in for one hell of a ride.
