Another Side of Me

Fear in me so deep

It gets the best of me

In the fear I fall

Here it comes face to face with me

Here I stand

Hold back so no one can see

I feel these wounds

Step down . . . step down . . . step!

Am I breaking!

Joey Wheeler continued to pace in his room. The last few words uttered by Kaiba were for once music to his ears instead of another insult. True he was thinking of only himself, but when was thinking of oneself a bad thing. Kaiba had easily put away the horiffic situation of happened in the past few hours behind him. Mokuba may have thought differently of the matter, rather hopeful that thegreen haired boy had survived as well. Though Joey himself heavily distrusted Noah, he did not take pleasure in the kid's death. Or perhaps the teen's death. There was no correct answer for the issue. Noah had believed he had aged whereas Yugi proved it correctly that his mindset is still that of a child, slightly younger than a teenager. He had just recently seen Mokuba's dejected exresson after how his brother, the CEO of the largest and most advanced gaming company, had turned the matter aside like it didn't phase him, which to Joey's surprise would not be unusaul.

a few minutes ago

"All right. That little detour was a complete waste of time. So lets pretend that nonsense never happened." The CEO spoke flat and bluntly as the matter was unimportant and irrelevant. Mokuba's face of hope to once again his brother, to him it didn't matter that they were not blood reletavies- they were still family in his eyes, had been doused out like a fire extinguisher would douse a burning flame. He uttered a small gasp. Questioning looks appeared on the face Yugi Moto as well as Tea but the cold CEO paid attention. "It's time for us to continue the Battle City Finals." Turning to the pilot he said "set us back on course for Kaiba Corp Island."

presently

Joey had to admit, the man was rather obssessed. Just because he's can't beat one person. Kaiba was still one the world's best. For him that would have enough but for Kaiba it wasn't. Joey suddenly punched a wall. Under these circumstances even for him it wasn't enough. At the moment he could not think about this as some dueling contest. Mai's mind was still in the Shadow Realm and he would not rest until he got it back. Joey took out his deck from his duel disk once more and looked through it. "Great. I gotta beat Marik and get Mai's mind back. Problem is I don't know what to expect from the guy. I almost lost that match with Odion but i can't pull off two miracles." In frustration he punched another wall several times. "Goddamn it, i gotta find a way to anhialate Marik if it's the last thing i do."

He was surprised to hear laughter coming from his room. It sounded like...him. But that was impossible. "And to what ends would you go to achieve this?" the voice asked. Joey looked around confused as to find where the source was coming from. "Look closely you fool. Time is short now." Joey turned around, surprised that the voice was comming from the mirror and from...his reflection?

"Oooookay...now I've seen everything" he said, his eyes rolling. The other simply laughed.

Can I break away

Push me away

Make me fall

Just to see

Another Side of me

Push me away

You can't see

What I see

The other side of me
