Chapter One: Toru's POV

It's a wonder that no one notices me as I watch her from the doorway, chatting away with her friends. Mimi's so perfect, with her legs that go for miles, her body with curves in all the right places, her tight pink dress hugging them nicely, and her pale, silky skin, while her long black hair hangs down in loose curls that frame her beautiful face.

I turn around and begin walking away. Mimi would never go out with me even if someone payed her. In fact, she resented me, because of her boyfriend, Shobu. They'd probably done it so many times…just the thought of them together hurt me to think about. Shobu was probably the most hated guy on the tournament circuit, mostly because he was fairly new to it and had already beaten several of the seasoned duelists. I know I'll have to play him at some point during today's competition, and I know there's a good chance he'll beat me, too. That's what scares me most: losing to him. If he wins, he'll get everything I've got; the money, the fame, the fangirls…not that he really needs any whores trying to seduce him when he's got Mimi, the one fangirl I can't have.

Speaking of the tournament, I glance down at my watch – I still have a half hour until the semi-finals begin. I continue strolling back to my assigned dressing room, taking my sweet old time. Although my best friend, Jake, is waiting there for me, ready to help me get in the duelling "zone", I don't particularly want to go back and have to deal with my other two 'friends' and three sluts who just wanted to get into my pants.

"Hey man, you ready?" Jake asks as I walk in a few minutes later, looking up from his conversation with one of the sluts, his expression silently thanking me for my timing. I shrug nonchalantly in response. "Oh my god, yeah! You're totally gonna win, Toru!" the slut squeals, clasping her hands together for extra effect and grinning. "Do you want a soda?" another one says. Before I can reply, she's already popped open and pressed the ice-cold can into my hand. "They're really nice!" She adds, beaming. "Thanks," I mumble, handing it to one of my 'friends' before I sit down at the small table. I take out my deck and begin to shuffle through the cards. "Hey, guys, we should go get our seats now before some dickhead takes 'em," Jake suggests, opening the door and ushering my entourage out. "Toru's gotta get in the zone if he's gonna win." One of the other guys says. For a moment, I think he gets it, and he's trying to get rid of the four other idiots, but then I realise that he just wants to hang out with the sluts. They all file out, and I nod my thanks to Jake as he shuts the door behind himself. It's ironic that I hate having so many fake people surrounding me all the time, but I'd still kill the bastard who'd try and steal them from me, I think, finding myself growing more determined to crush Shobu today.

"Duelists, please note: This is your 15 minute call." Says the voice over the loudspeaker.
