Hey, sorry I didn't get this up yesterday. I didn't have school monday, so I didn't get the words till yesterday. And I just now got the assignment, so here it is. Thanks for reviewing Antifish...(LONG penname) Here's My Homework, week 2.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh.
It was odd. Atem had turned less and less translucent ever since Battle city ended and more solid. But that would not last. His stay with me was only transient. He would be gone as soon as we sent him off to the after life. I would gladly transpose myself with him if it meant he could have his life back. I would not mind. He deserves it more than I do. Alas, his fate was to transcend our state of existence and go to the afterlife. I look back behind me at my friends, and they are transfixed. Anzu the most. Oh! No, Anzu don't! I take a deep breath. She almost transgressed on the law of the gods and ran after Atem. I am not surprised at this; she's had a crush on him ever since they first met. But I digress, I am wandering. I look back at our duel that we had a little while ago. Was it only a few minutes? It feels like an eternity. The gradation was not surprising. First the Egyptian Gods. They were the first step. If could not beat them I had not learned what I needed to. Then, going up against my favorite monster, the Black Magician. That was hard. Finally, the move I almost didn't make, hitting him with a direct attack. If I hadn't made that move it would've been retrograde. But instead, I've made progress. No longer am I the runt of the class always picked on. I have friends now.
The doors to the afterlife closed. Goodbye, mou hitori no boku.
