MPK: Thanks for reviewing Yugiohfan101! I read your review and realized that part of the story didn't make sense too. So I tweaked the story a little. But do to what I want to happen in this story, I must keep it so that she wins at least one time against him. Thanks for reviewing! Every review is important!
J2LUK(Just To Let You Know), Miranda's description is on my profile page.
Author's Note: This Is A Season 0 Story! That's why I'm using the Japanese names! Just to clear the air.
DISCLAIMER: I Think You All Ready Know
On With The Story! :)
After school Yugi offered to walk me home since I didn't live that far away from him. Jounouchi could't join us cause he had detention from another teacher, Honda left early for a doctor's appointment, Anzu and Miho stayed after school to finish work, so it was just me and Yugi. We talked a while about school and duel monsters. Then things got a little heated.
"Miranda, your different than I expected you'd be. Your really nice and intimidating when you need to be. You don't seem at all like an American."
"What do you mean I don't seem like an American?!" I said as my anger was slowly rising.
"Don't take this the wrong way but you don't act like an American. The Americans I know are snobbish and rude. You on the other hand are sweet and..." That's when I snapped again.
"I don't know what Americans you've seen, but most of them are as nice as I am! Plus, just because I'm from America doesn't mean I'm suppose look or act a certain way! There are lots of people who are nice from all over the world! Its just that as much as there are nice people, there are mean people too! So don't judge a book by its cover unless you've known them long enough to tell if there nice or not, GOT THAT?!" I yelled at him letting all my anger about the subject explode out of me. I know that Yugi's hair was spiky, but I swear, if you saw it now...
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to offend you! I just...I just..." Yugi stuttered.
"Don't worry Yugi, you didn't offend me. I'm sorry I yelled at you, its just that I'm very sensitive about the topic. I was born in America, even though both my parents are from Egypt, and my grandma is from Japan. That's where I get my Japanese and Egyptian ties. But, since I grew up in America I followed most of its traditions & customs, although I still practice a couple of traditions from my other cultures. That is why I've been bullied most of my life. I never really had friends, until one day I took a trip to Japan visit my grandma for a few weeks when I was 8. I was running an errand for her when I came across an orphanage. A boy was spying on me, so I went to confront him. It turned out he was just bored and was just watching me. He turned out to be really nice. I visited him everyday until I had to leave. He was a total gamer. He was the one who taught me how to duel. I kept in contact with him after I left until he got adopted. I never saw him again until I entered a dueling tournament in America and he was there to compete. I was happy to see him again and he was happy to see me too, until the second to last duel of the finals, when he had to face me. He won the duel, but I noticed he cheated. When I went to confront him after the tournament, he begged me not to tell anyone. I told him that he cheated and he needed to come clean. That's when I saw a side of him that I never saw before. He turned violent. He grabbed me by my shirt and told me if I ever told anyone he cheated, he'd come after me. I couldn't believe that he was ever my friend after that. Whoa. I never told anyone that. And it was boring too. Sorry you had to listen to me ramble."
"Don't be. I had no idea all that happened to you. I'm sorry." Yugi said pitying me.
"Don't pity me Yugi. I mean after all that I still turned out fine, right? And.."
"And now you got friends who care about you, even in toughest times!" Yugi said with the biggest smile I've ever seen, as we arrived in front of my house.
"Domo Arigatou, Yugi." I said bending down to give him a hug. He blushed as red as a tomato. "Ja'ne*." I said going into my house.
I went inside as Yugi skipped away with big smile on his face. I went to my room and shut the door. But when I turned around, I saw that teenage boy with green hair that was in my class. He sitting on my bed, starring straight at me with his brown eyes. It took all of my strength not to scream.
"Kaiba-kun!"
"Miranda-chan, we meet again."
"What are you doing in my room?!"
"I saw you and Yugi dueling at lunch today." He said ignoring my question.
"So?"
"I know he let you beat him."
"So?"
"But you're still pretty good at duel monsters. It was close each duel."
"SO?!"
"You seem to have the potential I've been looking for."
"LOOK KAIBA! YOU BETTA TELL ME WHAT YOUR DOING HERE BEFORE I KICK YOU OUT!"I shouted getting really annoyed.
"Short tempered and impatient as always."
"KAIBA!"
"Look, I've gotta job for you."
"I don't want a job from..." I was interrupted.
"Yugi isn't always himself when he plays a game. He has another side to him." he explained.
"What are you talking about Seto?"
"He becomes stronger, more self confident when he plays games. I want you to bring out that side and bet it in a game."
"Why me? Why can't you. Wait, you tried before and failed, right?"
Seto growled. "Will you do it or not?" He said through clenched teeth ignoring me again.
"I kinda have an idea what your talking about, but how am I gonna get to this "other side" of him?"
"Torture him. Physically or emotionally. Beat him up or kidnap one of his friends. I know it works because I've done it before." Kaiba said with no emotion at all.
"Are you serious?! Of course you would do something like that. You're sick."
"I'll ask one more ti..." he started to say standing up, but I interjected.
"I'd never hurt anyone, especially Yugi! The boy already has enough bullies hanging around him ready to strike at any minute. He a nice guy with a big heart so don't understand why anyone would want to hurt him! I can't believe you would even ask me to do something like that, Seto! I'd never do that to anyone and you knew that! What's wrong with you?! I don't why you have a grudge against Yugi, Kaiba-kun, but whatever your trying to do leave me out of it. Get Out NOW!" I said opening my door.
He started to walk out the door, but then he quickly shut it grabbed me by my shirt. "This isn't over, Miranda. You will do what I say or there will be consequences." He said looking at me dead in the eye.
"Ooh, I'm so scared."
Kaiba growled. He looked like pure evil. I was actually scared of him. That's when I shouted/screamed to my parents that there was an intruder. Seto let go of me and jumped out the window like a real bad guy. I looked out to see if he was okay but he was nowhere in sight.
'Man, he really is crazy.' I thought.
ja'ne*- see ya later
MPK: Alright now I think I now what I want to do with this story. R&R
