Hey there, my fellow writers and readers. Here's the first chapter of my second Buffy/Yu-Gi-Oh ficlet series, which I've given the title of ‛At Sunnydale High'. I hope you'll like them as much as I have writing them.

Disclaimer: Genius Kazuki Takahashi owns Yu-Gi-Oh, and Joss Whedon (also a genius) owns Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I own the fanfics I cook up from time to time.

At Sunnydale High

"Something weird is going on. Isn't that our school motto?" -Alexander Harris (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 2, Episode 19; I Only Have Eyes for You)

"OK, Yami, what gives?" asked Alexander "Xander" Harris as he walked side by side with Atem ‛Yami' Moto down the hallway of Sunnydale High School. "What is it that you want to tell me?"

In reply, Yami simply turned to Xander and, while handing him a piece of paper, said, "Well, take a look for yourself, Alexander."

The look of puzzlement on Xander's face soon turned to surprise and then a grin as he discovered the reason why Yami had something to show him.

It was Yami's report card – and it was all As and Bs. Very impressive, in Xander's opinion.

"Awesome, Yami. I had no idea that you're quite the student, too," Xander remarked as he handed Yami's report card back to him.

"Thank you, Alexander," Yami replied with a grin of his own. "But, however, I really want to show Buffy and Willow something I'm really good at. You know, just to, as you mortals often put it, ‛knock their socks off'."

Xander smiled his trademark grin. "Really, Yami? That sounds kind of cool."

Yami nodded. "I agree, Xander. I agree."

The two friends then turned and headed down the hallway, their discussion changing to the book Yami was reading, which had the title of "100 Most Infamous Criminals" and was written by Jo Durden Smith.

In Yami's mind, it was a great book to read. And, having something of a fascination with history, he also learned a lot about what people were like back then – and not just in the United States, but in other countries as well.

Well, that's the end of the first chapter of this new ficlet series. I hope you liked it so far. Also, nice feedback is very much appreciated, of course. :)
