and then the sky fell.

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh, I did create my character and write this story.

It was kind of like a fieldtrip. Well, that's what the teacher told them, anyway. He wouldn't have gone had it not been for Mokuba's enthusiasm, which seemed a little out of place since he wasn't allowed to go with him. Now, he was going to learn a whole bunch of crud he already knew about America. Whoot.

Of course, after getting on the plane there's no doubt he felt some regret for his decision. The trip from Japan to America is not an easy or enjoyable one, even alone. Well, try it with a load of over 60 noisy high school classmates. He was relieved when they finally filed out into the airport. It was a bit bigger than the one they had left; but there was about the same amount of people in it.

The next step was to get to where they were staying. They hadn't yet been informed just how long they would be here, but it was long enough to have to say in apartments.

Of course, the teachers being the smart ones they were had gotten a small bus, fitting only so much of the students. Some could choose to walk, considering it wasn't far, but they had to stick together. He decided walking with fewer people would be better than sitting in a cramped bus full of them. So, he walked.

Seto Kaiba started off before anyone else, hoping to make this as quick as possible, thus leaving the others behind. Or so he thought. He had peace for about ten minutes, before the geek squad caught up with him.

"Hey, Kaiba." The group of four kids from his high school ran up beside him. He expressed his disgust with a frown, and walked only a little faster. Yugi, his rival who claimed to be his friend, proceeded in trying to start a conversation with him, his friends making comments as well. Seto kept a straight face and went on walking, not reacting at all to the fact they existed, or perhaps trying to convince himself otherwise.

After a while they finally got it through there heads that he wasn't listening, and began to converse within their group. Things went on that way for a little while, until Joey decided to proclaim to the world, "I'm gonna be the most popular guy in America!"

Seto couldn't help snickering at this; "Yeah, right. Keep dreaming, Wheeler."

"You know what, Kaiba? I'm sick of you always acting so superior to us! I have talents that you don't."

"Name one."

"Getting a date."

He had to admit, that one threw him off for a second, "Why would I need a useless 'talent' like that?"

Joey laughed, "You're afraid because you could never get a girl to look at you if you tried!"

"I could if I wanted to, but I choose not."

"Prove it!"

"Fine." He regretted it almost as soon as he had said that.

At that point, the most random thing that could have possibly happened, happened. A shatter of glass and a blonde man about their age came crashing through the window. He now lay on the pavement, panting, bruised, bleeding and scared, but he was smiling as if he had just enjoyed every second of that.

"Had enough?"

Standing on the other side of the shattered window was a girl with her arms folded over her chest in a menacing stance. She had long, straight black hair that reached to her thighs and deep, sapphire-blue eyes.

Joey smiled smugly, turned to Seto, and pointed at the girl, "Her."
