*I decided to write a second story, just to see if everyone still likes my ideas
*It's a little complicated at first, but I'll clear things up over time! Enjoy!
Summary: Yusei is a nonchalant bad boy that loves life free and on the edge, but is constantly reminded that he's the son of the world famous R.R.D. lead developers. Akiza is a sweet yet feisty nature lover, unspoiled of her governmental parents' status and money. With Yusei as the Fudo's black sheep on the streets, and Akiza as the Izinski's innocent angel in an unpredictable world, their parents are constantly worried about their children's health. As if that wasn't enough, the only heirs to each house have zero interest in taking over the family businesses. The Fudo and the Izinski households were not sure how to calm their rebellious children down, but maybe if the four of them set up a little 'play date' with the possible couple....
~City Boys~
"Yusei, they're onto us!"
A group of young men were all kneeling on the floor, each of them positioned at a different window facing south. It was a dark and windy night, in an area of Neo Domino City that the streetlights can barely touch. The midnight hour cloaks the bleak alleyways in absolute darkness, the shadows almost as chilling as the howling wind. The men were in an old warehouse, abandoned by the city and left to shelter the rats and who-knows-what's that crawl in. Inside the make-shift residence was almost as dim and depressing as the outside.
"Yusei, they're almost here!" A blue-haired boy whispers loudly to the man next to him, a biker-like teenager with black, spiky hair, streamed with golden-yellow. Yusei ignores the young man as he continues to whimper.
"Yusei!!!"
"Bruno! I heard you the first time!" Yusei snaps at him with a really pissed expression on his face, and then slowly turns back to the window. A muffled sound was seen in the distance, followed by red and blue lights flashing in the distance. "Those psychos are always on my tail! I can't shake them if my life depended on it! And it does."
A slightly taller boy shuffles from the window towards Bruno and Yusei. He's a handsome blonde dressed in a gray and white overcoat. He kneels on all fours next to Bruno, who is shaking uncontrollably out of fear. Yusei checks to see how far they are from him, and turns his attention to the blonde.
"Jack, what is it? Did you find an escape route?" Yusei states eagerly.
Jack rubs the back of his head nervously, avoiding his shorter leader's gaze. "Eh, sorry Yusei. All possible escape routes have been cut off. Blister, Kalin, and Crow all say that either the police have made road blocks, or there's too much trash in the streets to run away in time."
"Really?! Dammit! Looks like I'm gonna have to do this the old fashion way. "
Yusei dashes from the window and hops down the rusty staircase. With a concerned glance at each other, Jack and Bruno quickly followed after Yusei, wondering what he plans to do this time. They trio reach the landing and dash through an open door, the police racing down the last roadway to their hidey-hole. Yusei is about to run to another warehouse alleyway when a hand locks onto Yusei's arm and pulls him back forcefully. Yusei spins around with a start to meet a certain spiky haired red-head glaring back at him.
"Don't even think about it, Yuse!" The red-head half whispers, half growls at Yusei.
Yusei gently fights the boy grip. "Crow? Why aren't you-? Wha-"
Crow yells over the deafening sirens. "Enough is enough, Yusei! I don't understand why you're always running away from them! It's not like you did anything illegal..." Crow lets go of Yusei's arm, which is glaring back at the police cruisers. They have finally reached the warehouse clearing, encircling the entire building with cars and officers. Soon the outside of the dark warehouse was alive with clattering boots and head officers barking orders. The men retreat back into the building's center, cornered and unsure of what to do next. The only thing lighting the inside was an old swinging lamp with a single blinking bulb, flickering a dim light onto the ground. From the stairway, the remaining members rush down the stairs, not even bothering to sneak or stay quiet. One was a young man with long, silver hair and a black trench coat. The second one was an older man with short, chestnut hair and a 5 o'clock shadow. The small team of 5 circle around the so-called light, the police already scurrying on the sides of the building.
"This is it, man!" The silver haired teen starts, pointing fingers at Yusei. "It's gonna be the end for you, it's gonna be the end for me, but more importantly, it's gonna be the end for me!"
"Kalin, you're not helpin'!" Jack barks at the silver teen, and then turns to the older man. "Blister, is there any way that-"
"Save your breath, man." Blister interrupts coolly. "The po' got this place locked down tight. The only way left is the emergency manhole hatch in the basement, but I doubt that's a secret, anymore. We got about 2 options left."
Kalin turns to the window, and back to Blister. "Which is?"
"One: We risk being arrested by helping the 'fugitive' escape through the manhole tunnel, which, as I said before, could be a trap."
"Or two?"
Jack speaks up, knowing what Blister was going to say. "Yusei turns himself in again, and spares us the possibility of being arrested for helpin' him."
Crow rushed to the window and yanks back the tattered curtains. "Yusei surrenders!!"
"Crow! Whose side are you on?!" Yusei pulls him away from the window and covers the window with the curtains. He then returns to his "team" and gives them orders.
"Alright! Okay. I understand that the situation has gone critical. But they're only after me, as always. So here's the deal. You guys take the manhole tunnel out of here, and I'll stay behind and go with them."
Bruno steps in, still shaken but concerned. "But Yusei, this is like the 4th time this month! When they catch you again, I got a felling that they won't let you go with a slap on the wrist this time."
"Don't listen to him, Yuse!" Crow pushes Bruno aside. "Go back! Take a breather from all this underground junk! We can always visit you again, if they let us see you anyways."
"Last time Crow. Shut up!" Yusei shouts.
Yusei and company are then startled by a blaring voice through a megaphone. It was coming from one of the police officers. "Yusei Fudo! Come out with your hands up. You will not be harmed." As the team crowds around a window, they see a tall, dark figure standing in the clearing. He was wearing a pure white shirt, dark blue jeans, and holding a white and blue megaphone. There was a second person there, a young light woman with blue hair and a blue blazer over a white dress. She was standing next to the taller officer.
"Officer Trudge and Inspector Mina? Again?" Yusei complains. "Why did they have to call them? Mina, I can tolerate, but Trudge?"
"C'mon Yusei. You know he's offered quite a pretty penny just to care about you. Cut him some slack. It's not easy being second-in-command." Teased Kalin.
"Ha-ha-ha-ha. You rascals get outta here. I'll be fine." He picks up a familiar looking megaphone from the floor next to the window. "I'll chat them up for about 5 minutes, and then I'll go with them. You all have until then to disappear. I'll catch up with you boys later."
The others wish him luck and hurry to a secondary floor staircase, heading towards the underground basement. Crow, the last one, turns back to Yusei. "Wow, Yusei!" He teases while batting his eyes. "You're soo brave! I hope they go easy on you! Call me!" Then Crow jumps down the hole, laughing. Yusei grins and gets up from the window, heading for an open doorway. He walks out to the lighted clearing with one of his hands raised above his head, and the megaphone to his lips in the other hand. He was about 25 feet from the nearest officer, and didn't plan to come any closer, so he used the loudspeakers to talk.
"Good evening, Mr. Trudge. Good evening, Ms. Mina. What's up?"
Trudge grinds his teeth out of sheer anger and yells into the blowhorn. "Don't give me that bull you reject of society! This is the 10th time we had to hunt you down in three months! If you wasn't a Fudo I would-!?" He's cut off as Mina grabs the loudspeaker from Trudge, and then picks up the conversation from there. "Yusei! What he means to say is, there's no reason to run anymore, so please come back! It's dangerous for you out here!"
Yusei gives them a hard glare before responding. "No! I can take care of myself! I'm not some pampered little puppy that enjoys sitting in the big house all day!"
"Please Yusei! Don't make this any harder than it has to be!"
Yusei smiles to himself. "Actually, I kinda like doing things the hard way. It gets your blood boiling and stimulates the mind! This is the most excitement Social Security has had in a long time! Anyways, I'll come over when I'm ready!"
Mina puts down the megaphone as Trudge whispers to her. "No! He always says no! Sometimes I wonder why we even bother! That ungrateful runt is disgracing the Fudo family's good name! I say we book him for that!"
"We only 'book him' if he's done something criminal! He's just a teenage runaway, Trudge. We're not dealing with a real fugitive!"
"Not yet! The running, the hiding, this is just practice to him for a real stunt. All a game! It took us ten days to find him at this dump! By the time he turns 20, he'll be on America's Most Wanted just for vanishing into thin air!"
Mina sighs depressed. "I never understood why he's like this. He has a good home, and parents who look out for him. I just don't understand why he's so..."
"Alright! I'm coming" came his voice.
Trudge and Mina look up in shock as Yusei slowly walks towards them, arms raised with the megaphone. He's been timing the whole thing ever since the boys left. It's already been 6 minutes, the extra minute for good measure. The others should be halfway to the sea by now. Yusei strolls calmly to the commanders, smiling all the way. The closer he got the angrier Trudge became. All the police officers circle around him, some armed with nightsticks, others with handcuffs ready.
Yusei walks up to Trudge, inches from his face. Trudge growls furiously as Yusei wordlessly teases him. An officer comes up behind Yusei and takes both his arms, gently pulling them behind his back. Yusei never stops smiling at Trudge as the officer handcuffs his wrists. "Careful!" Yusei turns his head to the subordinate. "You're dealing with precious cargo." The officer gulps and gently pushes him to an awaiting police car.
Yusei stops halfway. "One second, sir?" Yusei teases. The officer blinks at him. "I promise I won't fight. Oh, chauffer!" At this point, Trudge was blinking and twitching with rage. He knows Yusei was talking at him. With popping blood vessels, he rushes to face us within a blink of an eye. Mina rushes next to him, afraid that Trudge might do something regrettable. "Oh, calm down officer." Yusei chuckles. "I'm not going to spit at you. I trust my parents are 'worried sick' about me, or something like that."
"You bet they are!" Trudge blares at him so loud, Yusei's black spiky hair actually flings back from the wind coming out of his mouth. Yusei is not scared at all, unlike the officer behind him."Between their hard-earned jobs and you running around this city like a street rat, they'll be so worried, it'll kill them!!!"
Yusei pretends to sigh. "Oh, dear. What have I done. I should be ashamed of myself. Oh, what to do, what to do." Trudge is starting to foam at the mouth. "Alright. I'll go back to my squishy home. Always a pleasure, Mina. Remember to breathe, Trudge. Take me away, boys." The officer leads Yusei to the open car. He's slowly placed in the back seat and shuts the door behind him. The cruiser starts up and drives quickly through an open clearing in the blockade, leaving Trudge shooting daggers through his eyes. A lot of daggers.
"Trudge, please calm down." Mina states. "As soon as his parents speak with him, he'll be off the streets for a while. I don't understand why you're getting so worked up over nothing."
Trudge wipes the foam from his face. "It's not just 'nothing' Mina. He's always taunting me, ridiculing me, knowing I can't do anything because he's the son of Mr. and Mrs. Fudo! Curse him, curse him!" Trudge rambles on as he makes his way to his car, barking and snarling at anybody who looks at him strangely. The officer who handcuffed Yusei comes to Mina, saluting and standing straight.
"Ms. Mina." The officer states. "Reports state that Yusei will be back at Fudo Manor at the other side of the city by sunrise."
Mina turns to the officer. "Thank you. Call the parents and tell them that we found their son, again." She turns to Trudge, who is still steaming from the ears. "And, uh, get some coffee and food for Commander Trudge. He needs something to calm him down."
Seeing Trudge stomp around like a madman, the officer gulps. "Right away, m'am."
