See? Second chapter up already. I like this story a lot, actually. One of the most planned out ones I ever typed, I think.
Andy entered the small apartment. It was very modern, with marble floors and granite kitchen sides. On the balcony was Andy's favourite place. But then again, balconys were always her favourite places. Her room had one and she would out there most nights and possibly even fall asleep. When she would wake up at home, either Seto or Tea would have wrapped a blanket around her.
There were potted plants and a hammock on the balcony. Andy loved to lie in the hammock, with her favourite book and a bar of Ovalmantine, her favourite Swiss chocolate. She would get these chances after dinner.
As she stared out on to the balcony, she felt something tugging on her legs. It was the annoying little half-brother, Jamie. She hated the little runt. Mainly because he was one of the reason her parents had split. Secondly, he was, well an annoying little runt.
"Doctor Who!" He said, excitedly. Yami Yugi came out and picked up his son. He had never cared how much he ha hurt her father or her. So she hated him. Tea had made her father happy and that's all she ever wanted for him, but Yugi had stolen his happiness away from him. Yugi laughed.
"Come on Andrea! The Doctor's going on another adventure tonight!" Andy winced at her full name. Yugi always called her that and had encouraged Tea to do the same.
"The only adventure will be me whooping your ass in duel-" Andy muttered under her breath, but Tea cut her off. Tea ruffled Jamie's hair and the two 'men' went to the living room to turn on the TV. Tea had obviously heard Andy.
"Be nice Andrea!" Tea snapped quietly.
"You must be joking." Andy retaliated, with her infamous Kaiba glare. It was an inherited gene. Her father could do it, Mokuba could do it and even Gozuburo had been able to do it. Tea exhaled sharply at the reminder of Seto. She looked as if she could hit her.
"I wish you weren't so much like your father. That way you could see how much of a pig he was and still is." Tea turned and walked inside, looking proud of herself. She had hoped she had shown her daughter some sense. But she hadn't.
Never tempt the bull.
Andy was fuming. No one, absolutely no one, could insult her father in front of her.
She stomped inside the apartment, past the TV and into Tea and Yugi's room. She rummaged through Tea's bedside table.
"Score." She muttered. She had found her mother's most prized possessions. In the safe in the bedside table, were Tea's best photos and Duel Deck. Andy opened the safe easily. The code was seriously simple. 1001.
She ripped the photos and pocketed the best cards for herself. She was never a thief, but she would stop at nothing to get revenge on her father's behalf. Not to her surprise, there weren't many good cards, just a few she might need copies of.
Seto had trained Andy to duel since she could hold 5 cards. He had even given her her own deck. It was one of the best decks ever created, and of course, she could control it amazingly well. Her heart was strong and her mind was willing for any duel, but she had no time for amateurs. Sound like anyone you know?
The rest of the cards, she threw out of the window. She put the safe back, relocked it and closed the draws. She dusted her hands and went through to the TV room, smiling slightly. She sat down and joined the rest of them for the Doctor Who episode.
After Jamie had gone to bed and they had watched Doctor Who confidential, Andy decided to go to bed. She crossed the hallway and entered her room.
It was black, lit by glow-in-the-dark posters of Green Day, Evanescence, Elliot Minor, LostProphets, Good Charlotte and Linkin Park. She got into her pyjamas in the dark and lay down on the red and black bed. She opened her book, Twilight by Stephanie Meyer and continued reading. Edward Cullen had just saved Bella from a gang of possible rapists.
About 30 pages later, there was a a loud thump against her door as someone entered angrily. Tea had burst through the door, her face red with anger. Tea looked briefly around the room and her eyes fell on Andy. Andy was curled up in her bed, terrified. She had never seen her mother like this before.
Tea stomped over to Andy and whiped the sheets off of the bed.
"You!" Tea snarled angrily, "Why do you have to be so much like your father? You never even try to get on with Jamie or Yugi, never minding me! You'll never amount to anything, being like your father all the time!" And with that Tea walked out, slamming the door.
Andy sat up in her bed, shaking with fear. Tea was not a very practised mother. She had never even tried to be friends with Andy, let alone a mother. It wasn't Andy's fault, but obviously Tea thought it was.It was a bit obvious where Andy got her temper from.
Andy began to silently sob. She was alone, and she didn't know how to get to Seto or Mai. Her phone had died about 5 minutes ago and she didn't know the way home. The apartment was silent. She looked at her glow-in-the-dark watch. It was midnight. She hadn't realised how long she had been crying for.
Well not any more. She got up quietly and began to pack a few essentials into her bag. She put on a t-shirt, hoodie and jeans and then slipped on her Nike trainers. She carried her bag through to the kitchen and quietly opened a little blue pot. Inside was a load of emergency money. She stuffed that inside the bag as well and took some food and drink from the fridge. The bag was now heavy, but not too heavy so she couldn't carry it. She crept the the door and edged it open. She took a final look around the apartment.
"Thanks for nothing." She whispered before slipping into the night.
