This whole part is an intro…kind of.
Ok so this takes place after Joey, Yugi, Tristan, Tea and Kaiba have already graduated from Domino High School. Serenity is still in eleventh grade and all the rest have started their first year of college. Mokuba is in middle school. I'm going to put a little spin on the story and introduce a new character, Matt. Matt is Serenity and Joey's younger cousin and he is in Mokuba's class.
Serenity's POV
I was extremely tired. Schoolwork was eating away my life. I would probably be pulling an all-nighter again. Domino High had gotten a lot stricter right after Joey and the gang graduated. They had fun while they were in high school but all I ever do is study and homework. On top of that I took all the advanced classes and a few college classes. I had always been ambitious but I realized that I had gone a little overboard. Well, my life hasn't exactly been a stroll down the meadow. My parents had always argued and we were always poor. I completely immersed myself in school and that seemed to be my only source of happiness. When I got good grades I would feel as if there were some things that I had control over and that not everything in life was bleak and disappointing. Joey found his escape from reality in food. But I wanted to have fun with the gang sometimes, or even just take a nice nap. But then my grades would drop and I had responsibilities at home too. I had to take care of my cousin Matt. Matt's mom was sick and his dad had died when Matt was seven so my mom decided we would take care of him while his mom recuperated. Matt is adorable and he's pretty nice most of the time. He's always happy although he probably misses his mother. I learned a lot from the kid. Matt is only twelve but he seems so wise. Last year mom decided that we were going to move and live with Joey. I was overjoyed. We found a small two bedroom apartment in the not-so-great part of Domino. It was shabby but I liked the way the sunshine streamed in through all the windows. My mom and I slept in one room and Joey and Matt slept in the other. I had my bed on one side of the room next to the window. My mom's bed was on the other side. My mom's job was not too great but it paid the bills. Joey had gotten a part time job but all of that went towards paying for college. I liked living with my mom, Joey and Matt. If only school was a bit less stressful…
