Hey I hope you like this I've had this idea in my head for a while so here it is.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-gi-oh! But at the moment I don't remember who does! Oh, well!
Once
Once I was on top,
Now I feel like I'm about to pop,
Once surrounded by fans,
Now I'm left without even a ceiling fan,
Throwing me in the gutter,
Like damage butter,
Doors shut in my face,
I leave without a trace,
Humiliated forever,
It feels like it'll never get better,
My brother taken away,
What is there but wither away,
Heard of Motou's gang,
How successful they've become,
Motou with his title,
Will never go without income,
Ha! I once was there,
One step behind yes,
But I still was there,
But one slip up,
And they all forgot,
Gardener, with her friendship speeches,
And dreams of dance,
Got far in her goal
And now she's a pro,
I'm sure that even after all her friendship speeches,
Now she wouldn't pass even a single glance at me,
Taylor, no matter how stupid or naive he is,
He was able to find a steadier job than me,
Bakura, left for Egypt,
Digging into pasts,
Of once known acquaintances,
That's the only thing that I can say,
But one puzzles me,
That of Wheeler,
Who I ridiculed day in and day out,
The one who I've heard,
Disappeared and never returned,
Where does a person like Wheeler go?,
What were his dreams?, what were his goals?,
I guess we'll never now,
At least not me,
Years went by,
The jobs that I could get,
Weren't able to pay my rent,
I guess that I was to mean,
And now I'm being punished,
Until this day,
I don't know why,
I heard of a job at a prestigious company,
And decided to try,
I was curious to see,
Who it's mysterious CEO could be,
As long as the CEO,
Wasn't like Dartz or Pegasus,
I new I'd lived,
When I was led in,
The guard curling his nose at me,
What surprised I had,
At the man to be seen.
Wheeler?????, I said totally shocked at seeing him. It truly couldn't be mistaken, it truly was him. With his dirty blonde hair and hazel brown eyes, there was no doubt it was him. The only difference was that his hair wasn't a mess like it always was when we were in school, and it was a bit longer and he had a brown suit on that fit very nicely. How did a mutt like you, end up in a place like this?, I said sneering, almost immediately regretting it, not knowing what had come over me.
His eyes unnerved me as he doesn't say anything, his calculating stare passes over my person and he frowns at the state of my clothes. "I advice you to hold your tongue, Mr. Kaiba. If you expect to get a job here, you're lucky enough as it is, being where you are", he says narrowing his eyes and with an educated voice. I noticed immediately the change of his voice; he didn't have the harsh Brooklyn accent anymore. "And why is that?", I questioned, with a bit of fear that he would be thrown out. "Being who you are, and the way you've ridiculed me for years, why should I have given you a chance. But I know that you've have had a rough few years, losing Mokuba.." Here I tensed up not wanting to think of that.
"Losing your business, your life, your money, and no one giving you a job. It must be tough", he says in a tone that I didn't recognize. "It's none of your business! You would never understand, you've never past through that!", I screamed mad, believing him to me pitying me, I hated when people pitied me. Wheeler start laughing and it made me shiver. "Have you forgotten so easily, how my life was back then or where you too blind to see it for what it was? When I was a kid, my mom took my baby sister from me and I never saw her again for years, until we were teenagers. I was too poor to buy things that I wanted, and no one wanted a street rat working for them and other things like that.", he says. "I'm sorry, it's just been difficult", I say to him.
"Yes, I know.", Wheeler says nodding. I've got a few things you must follow if you decide to take the job", Wheeler says looking at me. "What are they?", I ask curious. "You will call me Mr. Wheeler or sir, no more no less, you're superiors demand respect, you will get weekends off but you will never take the week off unless you have authorization from me personally, you will get here at 7:00 and work till 9:00, and that's it for now.", says Mr. Wheeler. "Yes, sir. Umh, if I did get the job where would I be working? From what I've heard you own different companies. You'll be working in the gaming company, when I think you're ready to move somewhere else, I'll notify it. So will you take the job?", asks Mr. Wheeler. I think for awhile and I think that this is the best chance that will ever come. "Yes, Mr. Wheeler, sir, I'll take the job.", I say shaking Mr. Wheeler's hand. "Excellent, welcome to Ayustak Corp."
