Sometimes it's better to trust... Part one
You were in my life for so long... So of course it hurt me when you left... You said you needed to do what's best for you... But what about us... Your son and your daughter became suicidal... You left my mother so broken hearted... And me... I was left to grow up so fast... To be in the middle of the fight... To take the blame when things went wrong... To take charge when needed... To put a brave front for everyone... I couldn't cry... At least not in front of them... How dare you... I want to hate you... But I found that, that is so hard... I want to forget and forgive... I could forget... But I can't forgive... I don't think I'm able to... I don't think I'm strong enough...
"Papi..." I whispered to myself. I stared at that phone. Not sure what to feel... Not sure what to think... And unsure of what to do... 'How could Xavier just let him be a part of this situation?'
As if on cue, Xavier returned home. I heard the door close shut. The rattling of the locks bothered me. "Hey May!" he said happily as he walked over to the kitchen with a huge package in his arms. I'm guessing he hadn't noticed my expression yet. "Did we get any calls?"
I felt the urge to cry, but I held it back and placed my emotionless face. "Yeah..."
"Was it for me?" he asked
"Yep..." I said with an emotionless tone
I saw him walk over to the living room. He avoided eye contact with me. He looked down at the answering machine. I noticed his eyes were slightly wider.
"May, Can you go to your room for a second?" he asked.
"No" I flat out said "Not until you tell me how he got involved in this mess!"
"...May" He said.
"No Xavier, Tell me" I demanded. "Please..."
He sighed. "...your sister called him... She said you were attacked and died... She mentioned about me... And we knew each other at the time... So he called me, he wanted to know if you were still ok... If you're still alive..." He explained "once he knew you were ok, he wanted to know more about what was going on... He wanted to be involved... He didn't want to lose you"
I sighed. 'Why does it feel like a soap opera right now?' "...so wait hold up!" I said. "I'm dead!!"
"Um... Well technically, yeah you're dead" He said "But only in the United States"
"So everyone thinks I'm dead except my dad!" I said in shock. "Didn't he-"
"Tell your sister that your were alive?" He continued for me. "No, He thought it was too risky for them to know you're still here."
"...He's not gonna get involved is he?" I asked with a serious tone
"...well..." He started "he wanted to help..."
"I mean it Xavier! He's not to get involved in this." I said as I started to my room "End of discussion!"
"Where do you think you're going?!" He asked. I figured he wanted to talk some more, but I was done. There was no way into reasoning with me when it comes down to my family's safety there was no negotiating with this.
"To my room!" I said fiercely "He is not going to fight and that's that!"
He was running to my door, but I slammed it in his face before he could come. I locked the door and sat on my bed. I heard him say... "Where the heck did you learn to be so stubborn?!"
I let it go. I was too tired to fight back. I decided that maybe tomorrow I'd get things I needed to leave this place before he found a way to open the door. He always does no matter how many times I change the locks. I'm glad he tries though, it makes that much more fun when he fails to get it open. I saw that the window wasn't bared this time and took the opportunity to plan to escape the house tomorrow. Even if I was caught it be worth getting out and relieving everything I've held in. I didn't want to be angry, I don't want to be sad, and I don't want to be weak...
Next day (Saturday):
I got dressed and placed on my disguise. I opened the window all the way. I took one more look behind me and jumped out the window. I fell hard on my butt. Note to self: put a cushion down here.
'OW!' I mouthed so that I wasn't heard. I slowly got up and sneaked across to the next block. 'Now to see where I can get some privacy here' I thought to myself. I walked aimlessly through the streets passing familiar buildings and more that were not recognizable.
I kept walking. I didn't know where to but I guess I'll figure it out once I get there.
Yami's P.O.V.
I couldn't find Akirie anywhere during school the other day. Maybe it was better off that way. Yugi was getting dressed for some surprise he had for me. I didn't know what he was planning, but I'd hope it could get my mind off the situation. Once Yugi was done with dressing up he disconnected our mind link for a while. I was confused for a bit until he switched with me. I looked around and saw there was no duel arena or anything of the kind.
"Yugi! This isn't a duel!" I shouted at the puzzle hoping he'll hear me. Unfortunately he cut off the Mind link. I looked up and saw Tea. I maintained my composure once again. "Hi"
Tea and I hung out for a while. She told me about a new Egyptian museum. I took immediate interest. Hopefully I can unravel more of my hidden past...
May's P.O.V.
'Ok, I hate this town!' I said as I noticed some weird guy behind me eyeing me like a piece of meat. I wish I could so kick his butt right now, but he didn't lay a finger on me so... He's lucky. I walked a little quicker and to somewhere public. Sadly he follows from right behind. 'Leave me alone!' I thought. Damn, I'm near a cafe where there's people walking everywhere and he still wishes to follow me...
Yami's P.O.V.
I looked out of the window and saw that across from us, was Akirie. I angered when I saw another person behind her following all too closely. Tea must have noticed because she got up as well as me.
"We should help her." She said
"Yeah" I said in agreement.
We walked over to where Akirie and the guy were. I noticed he was about to take something from out of his pocket. I was afraid for her.
May's P.O.V.
I looked behind me and saw that, that stalker was taking something shiny from out of his pocket. I'm not letting him take advantage of me. I turned to him. Gave him a small smirk, while I quickly kicked him where it hurt. I took the item from out of his pocket. I was angered by the object before me... A gun... It brought so many bad memories of before. I emptied the gun of all it bullets then flung the everything inside the nearest sewer hole. I wanted to hurt him so bad now. If he had found somebody other than me he'd probably would have gotten to them... Sickening...
"Akirie!" I heard somebody yell my fake name. I looked up and saw Tea and him here.
Tea was the first to approach me. "Are you ok?" She asked as she saw the guy on the ground. "I thought he was going to get you good."
I stared at her a bit. "Um... I'm ok?" I said unsure of what's going on here.
"Ok, that's good." She said in relief "I thought we had to save you"
"I'm not weak, I can handle it myself." I said
"What was it that he had in his hands?" He asked in concern.
"Nothing..." I said lowering my head, not wanting to think about it. "Hey, what are you two doing out?"
"We're hanging out." She said.
"Where are the others?" I asked
"They didn't come with us, it just us two." She said blushing at the way it sounded. "What about you?"
"Oh, well..." I said thinking of what the heck I was doing. "Just walking around I guess, I needed some air. I hate being contained sometimes."
"So where are you headed?" he asked.
"I don't know" I said in confusion. "I guess I'm just walking until I find a place interesting for me."
"Why don't you with us?" Tea asked in excitement. This may not be a bad thing for me, if I did get caught then Xavier can't kill me until I reach home or somewhere with no witnesses.
"Ok" I said with a smile. "Where are we going?"
"Anywhere!" Tea said
"Cools!" I said as me and Tea Grabbed him by his arms and dragged him with us.
We walked nearly everywhere. We went to the movies, the park to feed the birds. I laughed when they on to him. We went to the music store. I was happy to get me some music to listen to. We then went to some game store. He looked so happy to get some new cards. I got some new cards too. It was fun. We finally headed to an arcade. It was HUGE!! I stared with my mouth opened.
"Like it?" He asked
"Like it?" I said "I'm in total shock about it."
They both giggled a bit at my childlike excitement. I've never seen arcades this big before! I didn't know which game to play. I looked all around and saw a huge crowd surrounding a DDR game. The guy wearing the red button down shirt and tight leather pants was winning. He looked so weird, and smug.
"Yeah! Johnny!!" somebody yelled
"Beat his butt!" another one yelled
"No mercy Johnny!" another one yelled
Tea went over to the crowd. "Hm... That looks like fun" She said with a smile on her face.
Once the guy had lost. The guy I assumed to be Johnny looked around the crowd for another victim.
"Who wants to challenge me next?" He asked. He then pointed to Tea. "What about you?"
Tea gladly accepted. She had him hold her jacket. "Go Tea! Kick his butt!!" I screamed in support. I turned to the crowd and glared when they booed her. "Ya'll have a problem with her?!" I cracked my knuckles. They stood quiet for a while before returning to Johnny.
They danced for a while. It was tied until Tea started taking the lead. I saw Johnny was disappointed. He then began to use Dance moves to try and trip Tea. "Hey you! Quit cheating!!" I yelled
Soon the crowd joined me. Tea wasn't phased at all; she just kept dancing until the ending round. She was the winner! Johnny was left wallowing in his lose while we left the arcade. So sad I wanted to stay...
"Tea, you're a really great dancer!" I complimented
"Thanks." She said "I want to go to New York in the future and pursue my Dancing dream."
"New York?" I asked. "Why would want to go there? When it's so nice over here"
"New York can help me..." She said. "I heard it was so beautiful, A place that never sleeps, with people all doing what they'd hope to."
'Sigh' "New York is nothing like what is told here or anywhere else." I said. They both stared at me to continued, but I didn't want to ruin anything for her... I looked forward and saw that we were near some peak. I looked in awe at the view. The wind was picking up again; sadly I looked down and get scared. I hid behind both Tea and him.
"Heights?" Tea asked.
I nodded slowly and carefully, "I had a fun time by the way." I said, hiding my smile "It really helped"
They smiled. "Hey, do you three mind if I step in?" I looked behind me and saw Johnny behind us.
Tea sighed. "Now what do you want?"
"A second chance"
"A second chance?" Tea asked
"I'd easily won if my leg haven't cramped up" He said "I think you owe me a rematch"
"Give it up" Tea said
"Yeah, and beside cramps hurt. You wouldn't be able to get up for a while!" I said. He stepped up.
"I'll give you a rematch" He said "But we'll duel my way"
"And if you lose I want to ask those two girls you have out for a romantic outing." He said pointing to me and Tea.
"Yeah right! You leave me out you sore loser" I said
"What did you call me?!" He asked
"Oh I'm sorry was that too fast for you" I said playing innocent. "You... Are... A... Sore... Loser... Slow enough for you?"
"Why you!!" He was really angry. I enjoyed every second of it too.
"Akirie..." He was whispering to me.
I ignored him. This jerk needed to be told off. "What? Can't stand that the truth." I said to Johnny.
"Oh I see now, Your Jealous that I'm betting on both of you girls. It's pretty understandable since I am that great and you want me for yourself" He said in confidence.
"Excuse me!" I shouted. I turned to Yugi's look alike "Boy you better take him down now before I do it myself."
He nodded to me. "Right."
We ended up at some duel arena. They'd readied themselves. During the duel Johnny would make some sly comments to me and Tea. I was just hoping that Yugi's look alike can hurt his pride, so I can hurt the rest of him. Back and forth they went on and on.
He was about to win until Johnny ran out on the duel. I cut him off from one side while tea on the other.
"What the heck is wrong with you?!" I questioned. "Just because you were going to lose you're gonna run away!"
"You don't understand..." He said "Nobody likes a loser... Nobody likes someone weak"
Although I hate to admit it. I actually understood him. I walked over to him. My eyes soften.
"If people truly didn't like you because they think you're weak. Then they are probably not worth impressing in the first place." I said softly.
"Yeah. The only people worth anything sometimes are your friends" Tea said softening up to him as well.
"Yeah, Your right! Hey, Will you guys be my friends?" He asked with hope in his eyes. Almost in an instant I turned from his face to the floor, and let Tea speak for me at this point. I wasn't going to say I will be. Not because I hated him still, but I didn't want to be too close...
"Of course!" Tea said happily. I sometimes wonder if I could ever go back to being myself again. To be as happy as Tea is...
Soon we left the arena and said our farewells to Johnny.
"Where are we off to next?" I asked
"The museum" He said with a calm tone.
"Yay! I love history!!" I said a little too loud, I saw people staring. I just hid behind the two once again. "I didn't say anything."
They both laughed. I just stared at them. 'I feel really happy, but... I can't be...' I thought 'but maybe... I could start letting myself be...'
DQ: ok I'm done from here. I tired...

DQ: Dueling Kaiba, I think.
Tea: o.0 why?
DQ: I don't know.
