Here is chapter three!
I probably should say the reason why I crammed Anzu, Honda, and Miho's chapters together is because I REALLY wanted to write out this chapter with Yugi meeting Kaiba for the first time, I even have a really cute idea for it and I bet you guys are going to love it! Plus I really want to get started on the full plot which starts when Yugi solves the puzzle.
On with the fic!
Imagination's Reality
Chapter Three: Seto
With a sigh, Yugi tried to stay awake as he teacher spoke about something he really didn't care about.
Yami sat next to him, floating off the ground in a cross legged position, and seemed to be listening to Ms. Katy talk about adding double digit numbers because he noticed Yugi was practically asleep right now and he would have to help fill in the missing info for the boy.
For about six months now Yugi had been doing okay is school, but he was still very shy and didn't like the other kids. But he seemed to want to talk to this one little girl names Mizaki Anzu. She seemed nice but was really bossy and Yugi was kind of afraid to walk to her.
Yami suggested giving her a little present and then maybe they could be friends, though he really didn't want her being Yugi's best friend. That was his positioned and no one was going to take that away from him! Jounouchi, now called Jou by everyone, seemed to only bother Yugi as a way to try and toughen up.
It seemed to be his mission in life to make Yugi stronger and less wimpy and Yami admired that, at least Yugi was getting some attention that wouldn't cause other kids to laugh at him. When recess came, Yugi walked up to where Anzu was skipping rope with her friend Nosake Miho.
"Umm… Anzu?" The boy asked timidly. Anzu turned and looked over at him.
"Yes Yugi?"
He blushed lightly and stuck out his hand and opened it to reveal a small keychain game. "Here… I want you to have this… because you seem like a nice girl and that you want a toy like this… Yami told me girls like gifts and becomes friends with boys who gave them things…"
Yami slapped his forehead. "Aibou… that's not what I meant…"
Anzu blinked and laughed, making Yugi look at her and raise an eyebrow. "What's so funny Anzu?"
"Yugi, that's silly! Girls don't always become friends with boys just because they give them stuff. I'll be your friend though, thank you for the game." Yami smiled brightly at this and Miho squealed.
"Aww! That is so cute! I wish a guy would give me something nice like that! It's so cute, Yugi should get Miho one too!" She clapped as she saw that Yugi had given Anzu a digital pet game. Out of nowhere, Honda appeared and took Miho's hand.
"I'll get you one Miho! In fact, I'll get you the greatest one ever!" Honda spoke in a serious manner that left Miho slightly confused before she smiled and hugged him, thanking him over and over.
Yugi chuckled, and Yami rolled his eyes.
One year later
Now eight years old and in the second grade, Yugi had learned that he should only talk to Yami when no one watched and that the Sennen Puzzle was hard to put together, but this wasn't a problem for the boy since he enjoyed challenges like that.
But right now he was more occupied by what was in his hands. For along time, Yugi would go to the candy store and go over to the capsule machine games to get another toy for his Collect-A-Mon collection. It was a large series of capsule toys in the shapes of different mystical creatures and there have been rumors that there were ten special capsules with a golden cap on them and a super rare, one-of-a-kind creature inside that was made only once.
And Yugi got the most prized of them all, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon. He was super happy about it and not even the rain could cause the smile to leave his face. Yami kept telling him that he was proud of Yugi for getting something so lovely, but Yami seemed to know what the beast was even before Yugi told him its name.
As Yugi walked down the sidewalk with Yami following close behind, they walked in front of the orphanage. While he was looking at the toy, Yugi failed to notice the crack in the sidewalk and he fell.
"Aibou! Are you okay?" Yami asked as he moved right to Yugi's side. Before Yugi could respond they heard another voice asking if Yugi was okay. They two turned and saw a tall boy with blue-eyes and white hair standing right at the fence and looking at him.
"Umm… yeah, I'm okay." Yugi spoke as he stood up.
"That's good; I thought you were hurt because that looked painful." The boy sighed softly with relief before looking down and noticing something.
"I'm fine, I've had worse." The Yugi noticed that the dragon wasn't in his hand anymore. "Ah! My…!"
"Is this yours?" Yug turned and looked to see that the taller boy was holding the dragon and Yugi took it. "Thank you very much!" He smiled and the boy looked slightly saddened.
"Hmm? Is something wrong umm…?"
"Seto, and its just… that's the Blue-Eyes White Dragon right?"
"Yeah."
"I was right… you see, I've been wanting that toy since my little brother told me that he wanted it because he loves dragons just like I do and he was really happy to find that they had a dragon like that in capsule form. He even says that the dragon was like me because we have the same eyes and are both tough. I use to spend a lot of my pocket change on capsules and I tried really hard to get it for him just so that he could be proud of me… but then I ended up in this place and I'll never get it…" Seto, as he said his name was, seemed really sad.
Yugi blinked, was he lying just so that Yugi could give up the toy to him? But Yami thought differently.
"Aibou, he speaks the honest truth, I can see it in his eyes. And… I feel like the Blue-Eyes and this boy have a connection, that he has complete love for this dragon, that it's his. Maybe you should give it to him, he may never get the chance to do this for his brother and since he is an orphan he will have a difficult life for his brother and he needs something to keep the boy's spirit up."
"Wow, you're right Yami." Yugi spoke softly. Yami nodded and watched as Yugi turned to Seto. "Since you seem like a really nice person and I know that you deserve this more then I do, you can have it." He smiled and handed the toy to Seto.
The boy looked in shock. "You… you really want to give it to me?" Yugi nodded and Seto took it with a smile. "Thank you." Yami's eyes widened as he looked at the smiling boy, for a split second he could have sworn he saw another version of Seto standing right behind and smiling as well, and he seemed to be looking at Yami!
He shook his head. 'No, you didn't see another person, you're just delusional.' He thought to himself and watched as Yugi said good bye and Seto saying he would repay back Yugi's kindness someday, but when the would happen was left up to faith.
TBC
I love how cute chibi Kaiba was to Yugi. Here is my reason as to why they won't remember each other later on:
Kaiba didn't see Yugi's hair, just the bangs, due to Yugi wearing a hoodie on his jacket to keep his head dry. Yugi doesn't remember Kaiba because Kaiba's personality changes and he goes by his last name rather then his first.
He will pay Yugi back, but not for a while.
Please review because I'm now done with the chibi chapters.
Note! Umm… the Yugi meets Kaiba thing was never in the original story, I actually drew a picture on my Foods class study guide of them meeting and I found a way to work it in.
