Yu-Gi-Oh :Generation of the Duelist
Chapter 2 The inner beast
Atem and his little brother walked down the corridor. Atem instructed Yugi how his room should be cleaned up and organized. Yugi feeling glad as he was now reunited with his big brother. Now infront of the door to Atem's apartment, yugi was excited for his new life in the city.
"Welcome Yugi to our new lives together" Atem welcomed Yugi into his home. Opening the dor Yugi saw his the apartment was bigger than he imagined.
"This is our home" Yugi running into the living room and sitting on the couch with the big Tv hanging from the wall. Finding the remote he immidiately turned it on and was surprised as the channel he was watching was the Dueling Network show. "Wow we can watch all of the pro duels happening around the world."
"Yes we can and remember if theres anything you need, don't be afraid to ask me for it." Atem feeling proud to be able to provide for his little brother."
"Well i was wondering something when we were at the restaurant" Yugi said nervously while putting his head down trying not to make eye contact with his big brother.
"Yes what is it?" Atem trouble by his borthers tone of voice.
"I was wondering if its just my imagination but..." Yugi trailed off."Is it possible you and Tea are going out?"
Atem's face shot red when hearing Tea's name. "Wah uhmm ...yes ...well you see thats a little complicated. uhmm no one knows that we are." Atem was now smiling but was awkwardly trying to lead their conversation to another subject.
Before they knew it they were both tred from talking about what they both experienced while they were apart. Yugi fell asleep first and carried to bed by Atem. That little brat could see me and Tea together even though we try to keep it a secret from Joey and Tristan, Atem surprised by Yugi's observation skills. Someday he will be a great duelist like me. Looking down he spots Yugi's card. shuffling through them he spots the Neon Beast Gecko, a card Atem gave Yugi for his 5th birthday. Maybe he will be a better duelist than me. He thought chuckling to himself as he walked to his own bed.
Next day-
The brothers were awaken by a knock at the door. Atem easily awoken by the knock was the first to answer it. Opening the door was his secret girlfriend Tea, in her usual red tank top with ehr yellow jacket and her black skirt. Atem surprised to see her was embarresed as he still had his bedhair up.
"Tea? What are you doing here?" Atem splattered while blushing.
"Well i was told to be here early to hang out with you" Tea looking away trying to avoid her boyfriends hair style.
"Who told you to be here?" Atem confused and thought about it clearly. With a sudden realization he learned who it was, "Was it Yugi?"
"Yup. at the restaurant i showed him how to use the cell phone you gave him and gave him my number." Tea explained. "He told me that you wanted the three of us to hang out together today."
That little brat, Atem feeling happy and upset at the same time. "Okay please come in i'll get him and myself ready."
Tea took a seat in the living room and Atem prepared himself and Yugi to go out for the day. Both brther being teased were convinced by tea to dress to look like twins by wearing a black shirt with blue jacke and pants. Yugi however didn't own a pair of black boots wore his regular shoes.
"Awww look at you two." Tea laughed seeing the brothers do look alike. "Yugi you look like a younger Atem, This is so cute" Tea taking her phone out took a picture of the brothers.
"Okay lets go" Atem embarrased by his little brother and Tea was feeling a bit frustrated. "Where are we going today anyways?"
"Well i thought we could go to the park and see if maybe we can have a duel big bro." Yugi also being a little embarresed for setting his brother up with a day with Tea.
"Sure i would love to see you two duel" Tea responded to Yugi's idea.
"Alright then lets go." Atem agreed to his request.
The three left the apartment and walked towards the elevator. In the other end of the hall way stood two men in hoods.
"Lets see that's Atem he took out Ryu yesterday." The tall hooded man spoke.
"Okay. The plan was to kidnap his little brother but the girl can also be an option." the shorter round hooded figure spoke.
"Lets follow them for now and wait for a chance to attack." The tall one ended their conversation.
At The park-
Yugi and Atem assumed their position to begin their duel. "Okay Yugi i won't hold back. Since i am a pro i cannot be allowed to show no weakness even to my own brother."
"That okay ill give it my best too" Yugi excited to duel his brother was set to win.
As Atem drew his first card, a cell phone ringing could be heard coming from Atem's phone. "Wait up Yugi. Let me take this" yugi put down his arms watch Atem speak on the phone.
"Yes"..."I see" "Well you see i'm spending the day with my little brother." ..."Okay i'll be right there"
"Who was that Atem" Tea asked him.
"Thats the Duel committee. They want me to help them out to set up a duel date with Kaiba. He won anough duels to challenge me to be the contender to enter the Slifer tournament."
"But you were suppose to spent the day with us" Tea feeling angry from the sudden situation.
"I'm sorry can you take care of yugi for me while i go sort out this business." Atem feeling guilt for letting Yugi's big day be ruined.
"Its okay i understand" Yugi walked to Atem. "You go to the meeting."
"Don't worry Yugi i bet we can find something to do while we wai for Atem to come back" Tea said looking at Yugi. "Lets not let this ruin our day. Atem g and hurry back we'll wai for you."
"Thanks and ill be back as son as i can" Atem began to run to the Duel tower. Tea and Yugi waved to him.
"So little yugi what do yo want to do for now" Tea asked Yugi.
"I don't know. I am kinda hungry" Yugi heard his stomache growl.
"Lets go eat" Tea held his hand
"What are you doing?" Yugi letting go of Tea's hand.
"What? oh i guess your not used to holding a girls hand" Tea teased yugi."Sorry but its a habit of mine. I work with little kids and i'm always holding one of their hands."
"Oh okay" Yugi listened to her, "But i'm not a little kids. I'm 13 years old." Yugi began to walk next to her avoiding her hand.
"I see so you and Atem are four years apart." Tea sounding like she was impressed.
"I got a question for you Tea," Yugi having the same face he had with Atem the day before. "
"YEs, What is it?" Tea ready to answer his question.
"How did ou and my brother meet and began to date?" Yugi smiling as his brother avoided the question before.
"Oh that it was almost a year ago. On my birthday, We didn't know each other then. Atem was friends with Joey and Tristan from the duel academy and Joey was my friend from childhood. Joey invited Atem to my birthday party and that how we met. We started to date three months later." Tea tried to remember if it was her or Atem's idea to date.
"I see, so why keep it a secret" Yugi asked.
Tea smiled a little at Yugi being so interested in Atem's love life. "Well Joey and Tristan aren't ladies men and Atem think he would be targeted by their pranks if they found out he had girlfriend and they don't. To joey and Tristan having a girlfriend is a big thing."
Yugi laughed hearing Atem's ridicoulous reason to hide a secret. "My brother is weird like that."
"Let me ask you something Yugi" Tea returned to yugi. "You ove your brother a lot righ?"
"Yeah i do." Yugi smiled looking at his dueldisk Atem gave him at the restaurant. "Hes always there for me and whenever i was in trouble he helped me out."
"Well thats too bad to see him not being here," a dark sinister voice could be heard coming from behind them. The two hooded figures stood with the sun behind them making it hard to see their faces under the hood.
"Who are you?" Tea asked.
"We are the chosen one to bring an end to the duelist of this generation and rise to power to great a utopia with us on top." the tall one spoke.
the short round one continued," Our mission is to target the best and remove them from the game."
"Our target is Atem but it seems he is not here" The tall one took a couple of steps towards them. "But you two seem like the kind of people he cares about and we need some hostages to achieve our goal."
Yugi stepping infront of Tea, No i won't allow you two to harm her." Yugi yelled at them.
"This little kid thinks he can take us on. That so cute." the short one laughed at his bravery.
"Listen we got a tight schedule to keep up with so we're just going to take the girl." The tall one spoke to yug still coming towards them.
Yugi panicking knewing he had to be a big man and take care of Tea for his brother. The tall one stopped in his track as he saw Yugi's duel disk.
"Say i'll make you a deal." The tall one began to talk. The short one at an incredible speed ran past yugi and grabbed Tea. Yugi surprised at his failure to keep tea safe was followed by a sound of the duel disk locking up on the tall ones arm. "Lets have a duel. If i win ill keept the girl as a hostage for your brother but you win we leave."
Tea struggle to try to escape the short ones grasps. "Yugi don't do it run and get Atem."
"No i can do this" yugi yelled back at her. "I can do this i know i can" He raised his arm and set his deck in place. "My brother always there for me and now im going to be there for him"
"I see you do look like your brother" the tall man observed at yugi's looks matched Atems. Removing his hood he resembled a lot like a mime with multiple piercing across his face. "My name is Gin and i'm the prophet of the dragon age deck."
"Lets begin this Duel" Yugi and Gin yelled. Gin going first drew his first card. "I will start us off by summoning Dragon Arca-tech Slimon (atk 1700 def 1700) in attack mode. and play two cards faced down. your turn little brat"
"I draw" yugi began his first turn. This is crazy im having a duel wih this unfinished deck, Yugi panicked knowing he already messed up by accepting this duel. How am i supposed to explain to my brother i let them take Tea. Looking at his cards he heard a strange sounds coming from his card, Neon Beast Gecko. What are you speaking to me?, he asked it inside his head. the card simply made a small cry.
"What is this?" yugi asked himself looking and hearing his monster talk to him.
