Disclaimer:

I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh, Spiral, or any other random anime that may happen to pop up. I do own Akira, Aragorn (OC, not from Lord of the Rings, which I don't own), Aldrea, and Mark. I wrote this using my own twisted version of the characters, so please excuse any… odd… things. WARNING! Bishie Bashing Ahead! WARNING!

Summary:

This is an interesting story that I didn't mean to turn into a fanfic, but it did. It occurs about 20 years or so after Battle City. If you notice any mistakes in continuity, grammar, or spelling, please tell me so I can fix them. Also, I will be using a strange mix of Japanese, English, and Spanish, but it will mostly be in English. If you have any questions or notice any mistakes, please tell me.

-Aldrea thinking-

Chapter 1

"Race you to the lake!" Aragorn Kaiba called to his twin sister Aldrea.

"You'll lose and you know it!" she yelled back, taking off.

"Bye Mom, we're going to the lake!" Aragorn yelled over his shoulder.

"Be back by dinner!"

"Hai!"

Aragorn ran, taking off his shirt and shoes as he went. He was wearing his swimming trunks, which he usually had on. In fact, most people who lived near the lake wore their swimming clothes under their regular clothes. He noticed Aldrea's clothes strewn along the path through the woods to the lake. He accidentally kicked one of her shoes under a bush. /At least I'll get some revenge for her beating me there/ he thought. While he was kicking the shoe, his other foot got caught in a hole and he fell, landing face to face, or rather, face to neck, with a headless corpse.

-------------------------------------------------

Aldrea panicked. Her brother never screamed. Not even when he fell out of a tree and cracked his head open.

"Aragorn!" she screamed.

"Aldrea! Where are you!" he answered.

"I'm coming!" she yelled, sprinting toward his voice.

"Hurry!"

She ran faster then she ever had before, hoping that whatever had made him scream was something she could handle.

"Where are you!" she couldn't find him.

"Wait there, I'll come to you." He said loudly yet calmly.

"Hurry nii-sama, I'm worried!" She said, a hint of terror in her voice.

Aragorn came up to her, panting. "You might want to… sit down." He said.

-He looks terrified- she thought. -He hasn't looked this bad since we watched that movie Mom told us not to when we were six.- She slowly sat on the mossy ground and waited for him to catch his breath.

"What is it, Arag?" She asked, using his nickname. "What's wrong?"

"It's… Kousuke."

Aldrea was instantly alert. Kousuke had been their friend for years, and Aldrea had recently realized she had a crush on him.

"He's… dead." Arag whispered.

Aldrea's mind reeled. -Is he joking? He has to be! Kousuke was going to meet us at the lake. He and Arag must have met up and planned this! Yeah, that's it.-

"You're… joking." She said uncertainly.

"No, Drea, I'm not. Have you ever heard me scream like that before?"

Her brain couldn't process it. -Kousuke, dead? But he was the most intelligent, most intuitive, most, well, sly kid around. Surely he couldn't be… dead?-

"How? Where? When?" she stuttered.

Arag suddenly looked ten years older. "Beheaded. In the clearing. It looked… recent."

She couldn't breathe. She found herself choking. Arag was instantly by her side, patting her back and saying, "It's ok, Drea, it's ok."

She caught her breath suddenly. "We have to get out of here. There's a murderer somewhere in here!"

Arag looked panicked for a moment, then reverted back to his calm, methodical self.

"I'll go get our clothes, then meet… no, we'd better stick together. Just close your eyes when I tell you to, ok?"

"Hai, nii-sama." She and her brother were already fluent in about 10 languages, even though they were only 16. Their personal favorite was Japanese. It was so fluid and beautiful, and they used it more than anything, save English. Their mother had grown up mostly in Japan, and it was the secondary language around the house. Even though they lived in Japan, English was their main language, as their dad spoke it at the office and often at home.

Arag started leading Drea toward a small clearing. Right before exiting the trees, he told her to close her eyes. She did, and as he led her across, she felt him shudder a few times, then quicken his pace.

"Ok, you can open them now, just don't look back." He cautioned.

Some people would have been tempted to look back, but Drea would have done anything Arag told her, and vice versa.

He wordlessly handed her one of her shoes, which was filled with leaves. She gave him an inquiring look, but he just shook his head. He then handed her a little duckling. She almost burst into tears. "Robertson…" She whispered, stroking its feathers. Robertson was Kousuke's treasured pet.

"I found him by… by the…" Arag said hoarsely.

"Oh…"

"I found these too." He held up Kousuke's yellow tinted glasses, which he was, no, had been, very proud of. "Do you like my glasses? They match my duck!" He had been fond of saying to complete strangers.

"Did you find his… his… head?" Drea whispered.

Arag quietly shook his head, and two drops of water fell from his face.

-He's crying…- Drea realized. -This must be horrible for him, I mean, he just saw his best friend's dead body.-

They continued along the path, picking up their clothes along the way.

What they found when they reached their home was completely unexpected.

BWAHAHAHA! Cliffhanger!

I just want to say thanks to Chaos, because she's so COOL!

Sorry to any Kousuke fans, I'm one myself, I just had to do it…
