This chapter involves the lucky guy Fuwa Ryuichi, but he has no connection to Seto Kaiba. Speaking of Kaiba, he will only appear in the sequel of this fanfic.
Oh, and one more thing; am I the only one who thought Fuwa reminded me of Lester from YGO 5D's?

Chapter 10: The Extremely Lucky Guy; The Undefeated Legend
The twins, Aurora and Joakim, arrived to school and met their friends in the classroom. Yugi and the others greeted the twins before Joey spoke about a TV show.
"Did you see the prize from last night's game show?!" the blonde boy asked the group.
Yugi nodded, "That champion sure is amazing."
"If he keeps winning, his prize will just keep getting bigger", Anzu added.
Joey nodded, "The first week is 10,000 yen. The second week is 20,000 yen. If he wins the tenth week, that'll be 100,000 yen!"
"That's amazing!" Miho exclaimed. "I wonder how much that champion's won?!"
Tristan stepped up to Miho and placed a hand on her shoulder, getting her attention. "That's no good, Miho-chan. You mustn't dirty yourself by falling for this guy. Because it's best for humans to live steadily, bit by bit." The twins nodded in agreement. "Getting money so quickly, he'll be driven out of society. And finally, all that's left is to end your life at the guillotine."
Joey growled and pulled Tristan by the collar of his school uniform. "What are you babbling about?! It's 100,000! 100,000! With that I can pay back the debt from my idiot father's sake and gambling." He let go of Tristan, getting into the mood. "With money I can run away! Goodbye to my pathetic life!"
"Joey…", Yugi mumbled, a bit surprised.
"Your life is really like that?" Anzu asked Joey.
Joey realized his mistake and panicked. "D-Damn it. I didn't mean to say that."
"That's right. You've paid for your school and living expenses since elementary school, haven't you?" Tristan asked the blonde boy.
The twins were shocked to hear that.
"No way…", Joakim mumbled, his eyes widen.
Aurora couldn't help but showing concerned eyes at the poor boy.
"Y-Yeah!" Joey growled. "I'm not like you, leeching from your parents at the leg! I'm the one who truly lives it steadily bit by bit!"
Tristan got a bit taken back when he heard Joey use the same sentence that he had told Miho just minutes ago.
However the teacher just arrived to the classroom so every student went to their seats and bowed to the teacher before they sat down. But there was a student standing next to the teacher.
"Good morning", the teacher nodded to the students. "Today I will introduce a new friend to all of you."
The students were surprised to hear a transfer student coming to their school so late in the first semester of the school year, but they all changed their attitude when they saw who the transfer student was.
The teacher wrote the transfer student's name on the blackboard before he turned back to the class. "He's Fuwa Ryuichi-kun."
Fuwa Ryuichi was a sixteen years old boy with chestnut-brown hair, tanned skin and a turquoise boy school uniform with a magenta shirt underneath the jacket.
"Pleased 'ta mee'cha", Fuwa greeted.
Aurora grimaced lightly at the transfer student's way of speech. He smelled trouble to her.
"It's him!" Joey whispered. "The Game de Get show champion!"
"That's right", Yugi realized it too.
Now every student was talking about Fuwa.
"The defending champion!"
"Yup, that's right", Fuwa nodded. "Just to get it out of the way, I don't give out signatures. And to the ladies, I know I'm handsome, but please don't think you can be my girlfriend. I have no interest in kids."
"But he's a kid too…", Joakim whispered, also getting bad vibes from Fuwa.
"Ryuichi-kun is so cool!" Miho said.
Tristan overheard Miho and grew angry at Fuwa for capturing Miho's attention.
The teacher looked around in the classroom. "So, Fuwa-kun's desk will be-"
Fuwa didn't wait for the teacher to tell him where he should sit. "There!" Instead he threw his school bag to the empty seat on Yugi's right, the bag landing perfectly on the desk.
The teacher placed a hand on Fuwa's shoulder, holding him back. "Hey. I will decide your seat."
Fuwa slapped off the hand from his shoulder and turned to the teacher. "Teacher. It's game time."
"Wh-What?" the teacher blinked confusedly.
Aurora snapped up when she heard Fuwa say "Game time". That was usually Yami's quote.
Yugi also had his attention on the scene in front of him. Whenever he heard the word "game", he would always turn to look.
Fuwa held up a golden coin, showing the head side to the teacher. "The rule is simple. I will flip a coin while you decide heads or tails." He turned the coin over to show the tails side which was a picture of a leaf. "If you win, teacher, I will sit where you want. And ya can have this coin, teacher."
Fuwa flipped the coin so that it spun around in the air, the teacher following it with his eyes, before Fuwa caught it and placed his clenched hand above his left hand. "Now."
"Heads!" the teacher called.
Fuwa opened his clenched hand and revealed the coin had fallen on... "Tails. Too bad! I win."
With that done, Fuwa walked over to the seat he had chosen and sat down.
"Nice to meet you", Yugi greeted his new classmate. "I'm Mutou Yugi."
Fuwa turned to him with a small grin. "Let's get along."
Aurora and Joakim didn't like how Fuwa was acting around, thinking he could do anything just because he was super lucky.
XXXXXXXXXX
Once the first break came, Fuwa got surrounded by several classmates inclusive Miho.
"Hey. Since you appear on TV, does that mean you can meet actors?" said girl wondered.
"Yeah", Fuwa replied. "They're all stupid. I have no interest in them."
"But you really are amazing!" a male student exclaimed, admiring Fuwa.
Yugi agreed, "In one week you can get 100,000 yen!"
"How much have you received so far?" Miho asked the super lucky guy.
"How am I supposed to know?! I spend the money immediately", Fuwa confessed.
"How wonderful. Way too cool", Miho cooed.
Joakim shook his head, leaning against Yugi's desk by the boy's left side. "Seriously, what an irresponsible blot. Spending all the money right away instead of saving it for the future. Who does he think he is? Gladstone Gander?"
Aurora stood next to Joakim and nodded. "Who knows when his gift might disappear and he will end up on the streets as an adult."
Anzu and Joey stood by Tristan's desk, watching everything in front of them. And Tristan was not happy seeing Miho falling for an arrogant guy like Fuwa.
"Miho-chan… What's she see in that stinky guy?!" Tristan growled.
"You certainly want to hit him from behind", Anzu agreed.
Tristan elbowed Joey on his back since the blonde boy leant against his desk like Joakim did. "Hey. Say something, Joey!"
But the blonde boy said nothing. He just stared at Fuwa as if he was trying to figure something out or something else.
A second male student walked over to Fuwa. "Hey, actually, I want to appear on that show. I apply every day. Please tell me! How do you keep winning like that?!"
Fuwa snorted lightly. "Do ya know why lions are strong? It's because lions are born lions."
"So he's born as the Leo of the zodiac?" Joakim spoke out loud.
"It's the same way. There's no method for winning the game", Fuwa finished, not hearing the male twin's comment. "Those that are strong are just born strong. That's all."
"Not always…", Aurora mumbled lowly, looking down while feeling an old wound reopen.
Joakim noticed his sister's distance eyes, so he elbowed her to get her back to reality. Aurora snapped out of her daydream and smiled thankfully at her brother.
Yugi had noticed Aurora looking a bit down and even heard her comment when Fuwa had said "Those that are strong are just born strong.". Could it be Aurora was hiding something from him and their friends, and Joakim was aware of that secret?
XXXXXXXXXX
It was now the end of the school. Fuwa had surprised everyone with his luck, but the twins hated how he acted so cheeky and thinking education was petty for someone like him.
Fuwa was about to walk home alone when Miho caught up to him and grabbed his left hand in which he held his school bag. The boy grew stiff and cold sweated as Miho was stubborn enough and didn't leave him alone. The rest of the group followed them as well.
"Hey. Miho is a Virgo, AB blood type", Miho told him about herself. "How about you, Fuwa-kun? I think we're highly compatible."
Joakim noticed how Tristan looked angry at the sight in front of him. How could Fuwa seduce Miho? Easy; because Fuwa had money and apparently, Miho's secret dream was to marry a prince in the future.
Aurora also noticed something else. Joey kept scowling at Fuwa with a glance that seemed to speak trouble. But one thing the female twin noticed was how Joey walked close to her right side while Yugi walked on her left side. Joey usually didn't approach Aurora like this, so something was going on in the former bully's brain.
Fuwa tried walk away a bit so Miho wouldn't cling on him, but the girl kept following him. Before she could grab his hand again, Fuwa turned around and stopped walking which made Miho stop walking too, looking very confused.
Fuwa tried to keep his smirk, but in reality he was very nervous for some weird reason. "Do ya want to eat anything? I'll treat." He showed the restaurant the group stood outside of.
The exterior of the building screamed expensive, and had the style of a Chinese restaurant with a dragon on the wall above the entrance.
"The food in this restaurant looks good!" Miho smiled.
"Umm… This place looks expensive", Yugi pointed out. "Will it really be okay?"
"Seems ya don't know a thing 'bout me", Fuwa snorted before he walked over to the door. "C'mon."
When Fuwa stepped inside a restaurant, he got quite a royalty greeting by the owner of the restaurant.
"Congratulations! You are the 10,000th customer since the opening of this restaurant", the owner told Fuwa happily. "All the food and drink today will be free!"
"Dat's how it is", Fuwa told the shocked group.
"Wow!" Miho exclaimed impressively.
"Gladstone Gander strike again", Joakim mumbled.
The group was led to a big round table. A waiter served their food which was placed on a spinning board in the middle of the table so everyone would be able to reach the food they wanted to eat.
"Go ahead. Don't hold back. Eat up!" Fuwa told them. "'Cause more food is coming!"
Everyone thanked for the food before they started eating.
"This is excellent food", Aurora commented.
Yugi nodded with a smile. "Really good!"
Both Joakim and Tristan noticed how Joey still hadn't stopped staring at Fuwa who didn't even notice his glance the whole time.
XXXXXXXXXX
Once the group had their fill, they walked down a street when they spotted a table outside a travel agency that seemed to have some kind of lottery where you could get a nice prize.
"Hey! Let's do that!" Miho told the others before she held up three green tickets. "We just now got tickets, after all."
The group got the tickets by the restaurant and those were used to get three tries to get the big prize of this lottery.
"We get three chances, right?" Anzu spoke out.
Fuwa turned to Yugi. "Alright, Yugi-kun. Wanna duel me?" Yugi just blinked confusedly. "The rule is simple. The one who wins the A prize wins. The loser will do whatever the winner tells him."
That didn't sound good news to both Aurora and Joakim. They also noticed a weird odor coming from him, and obviously not literally. But they could sense some kind of evil from the lucky guy.
"Well?" Fuwa asked Yugi.
Yugi nodded uncertainly. "O-Okay."
The small boy gave the man behind the table a ticket and started spinning the tool that held several white globes and only one golden globe. Yugi kept spinning until a white globe rolled out.
"Oh, compensation prize. One tissue", the man behind the table gave Yugi a wrapped tissue.
Yugi accepted it, even though he got a bit disappointed.
"Alright", Fuwa pushed away Yugi from the table. "I'm next."
The lucky spun the tool until the golden globe came out. The crowd around Yugi's group exploded in amazement and wonder.
"There it is!"
The man who owned the travel agency rang a bell. "Congratulations! The special prize is a trip to Italy!"
"That's amazing!" Miho giggled.
Everyone else in the group was shocked to see how Fuwa won again!
"Looks like I win, Yugi-kun", Fuwa told the boy, holding the prize that contained tickets to Italy between his fingers.
Yugi laughed a bit. "I lost. I guess I really can't beat you, Fuwa-kun."
"I can't believe there's a person like you, Fuwa-kun!" Miho said with a giggling voice.
"It's just impossible that there is a human Gladstone Gander", Joakim waved with his hand. "That just happens in the comic books."
Suddenly, Joey ran up to Fuwa and stood in front of the lucky guy. "Fuwa!"
Fuwa looked confused at Joey, but never lost his proud smirk on his face.
Anzu and Miho got scared if Joey wanted to get in a fight with Fuwa, but for what reason? Tristan however looked happy to see that Joey was going to knock the lucky guy out the way as the blonde boy usually did.
But everyone except Fuwa got surprised when Joey went down on all four, bowing his head to Fuwa. "Please! Please take me as your student!" the blonde boy begged. "I also… I also want luck like you! Please!"
Joakim held back a laugh, but it slipped out through his lips. "S-Seriously…"
Aurora shook her head, amused at the scene in front of her. Tristan face palmed when he realized Joey had been admiring Fuwa, not scowling.
Fuwa couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Are ya dumb?" He turned to Yugi. "Yugi. I look forward to ya keeping your promise."
"Promise? You mean to do what you say, Fuwa-kun?" Yugi said.
"Yep", Fuwa nodded. "Later." He left the group to walk home.
Aurora checked her wristwatch and her eyes widened when she saw the time. She turned to Joakim. "Joakim."
Joakim turned to her and nodded, knowing what his sister meant. "Sorry, guys, but Aura and I have to leave. We got an errand."
"Really?" Anzu asked.
"Yes", Aurora nodded.
"We really need to go, so see you guys tomorrow!" Joakim waved before he and Aurora walked away, going the same direction as Fuwa.
The twins were actually on their way to the office where their manager was waiting. They needed to go through some last checks to see if everything for their comeback concert was good to go.
It didn't take long time before they noticed someone was following them, and that someone was Joey.
"Why're you coming with us, Joey?" Joakim asked, seeing Fuwa in the horizon not too far from them.
"Don't tell me you still want to be Fuwa-kun's student and get luck", Aurora sighed.
"I'm not giving up! I will get big luck and repay my dad's debt!" Joey declared determinedly.
Joakim and Aurora sighed before they spotted three small kids running after Fuwa to get his autograph, but they were running in the middle of a crossroad while the lights were green for the vehicles!
The trio saw the whole scene in fear, but sighed in relief when the small boys made it to the other side safely. But the boys got so scared that they started crying and one of them was reaching his hand out to Fuwa to comfort them after the close incident.
Fuwa did hear their cry and was about to grab the little boy's hand when he quickly pulled back his hand as if he got a shock by the little boy's aura. "Oh. I better not. If I touch unlucky guys I might get unlucky too."
Aurora, Joakim and Joey heard Fuwa say that and they grew so angry at the arrogant and egoistic guy. Fuwa walked away, leaving the three crying boys lying on the concrete with no one else nearby.
Once the twins and Joey saw that no vehicles were coming, they ran across the street and went to the boys, giving them warmth and comfort.
"Hey! Are you okay?!" Joey asked the crying boys before he patted the one who had a cap on his head. "It's okay. It's okay." He turned to look at Fuwa, growling angrily. "That punk."
"Are any of you hurt?" Joakim asked, helping the boy with orange jacket.
Aurora gathered the boy with green jacket in her arms, rocking him gently. "There, there. Everything is okay. You are fine."
The spirits of Amaura and Mako joined the group, but their eyes were on Fuwa's figure who slowly disappeared from their sight.
"I didn't like him since I first saw him on the television", Mako said.
"And his aura and soul is tainted", Amaura added. "As if he really believes he is blessed by the fortune goddess Tyche."
"He deserves to be punished, that's for sure", Mako nodded.
"And get rid of this luck so he can be a normal human and get rid of this attitude of his", Amaura ended.
XXXXXXXXXX
Next day, after school, the group except Yugi and Fuwa went to a coffee shop to discuss about Fuwa.
"That guy… No matter how lucky he is, he's pathetic as a human!" Joey growled.
"Who?" Miho wondered.
"I'm talking about Fuwa. Fuwa Ryuichi!" Joey replied.
"So you finally awaken, Joey! I'm… I'm so happy!" Tristan smiled, patting Joey's back with a smile.
"Really? He seems nice", Miho said before turning to Anzu. "Right, Anzu?"
Anzu nodded, "More than I thought. And the little bit of abalone from yesterday's Chinese was good."
Joey slammed his hands on the table, angry to hear the girls defending the lucky guy. "Don't turn traitor for food!"
Joakim began talking with a calm voice before it turned into a serious one. "So you're saying it's okay for Fuwa to ignore three small, crying boys that were nearly driven on to death when they blindly crossed the streets when vehicles were coming and he didn't comfort them just because he didn't want to get unlucky?!"
"What?!" Anzu exclaimed. "W-What do you mean?"
"Just what he said", Aurora nodded, her eyes growing cold at the thought of Fuwa. "Wheeler-kun, Joakim and I were eyewitnesses and heard every word that came out from Fuwa-kun's mouth." She grimaced lightly. "He's a failure as human."
"No, that can't be true", Miho kept defending Fuwa. "Fuwa-kun wouldn't do such thing."
"Then why did he try to get away from you whenever you tried touching him, Miho-chan?" Aurora asked, making the bluette blink confusedly. "Because he was afraid you would make him unlucky."
"No way…", Miho's eyes grew sad. "And I'm a Virgo too…"
"Yugi sure is late", Tristan pointed out. "What's he doing? He's usually early."
"Yugi isn't coming today", Anzu told the group. "He said he agreed to have a game with Fuwa-kun."
Joey snapped out of his anger. "Wh-What?!"
The twins looked at each other before they shot out from their seats. "Let's go!" they called.
Tristan, Miho and Anzu blinked confusedly while Joey followed the twins without hesitation.
"Mutou-kun is in danger!" Aurora told the group.
"Because Fuwa is actually a big ass bully!" Joakim finished.
The rest of the group jumped up on their feet when they heard the truth and ran after the twins and Joey out to the street.
"Where could they be?!" Joey growled before turning to Anzu. "Anzu! Did Yugi say where they were going?"
Anzu nodded, "Yeah! To Fuwa-kun's place!"
The group quickly found Fuwa's home which was big and looked expensive, but still wasn't like a royalty's. They made it inside the house with some maids and servants they ignored and made it down to the cellar when they heard where Fuwa and Yugi were from the servants.
Joey made it first to the door to a room in the cellar where he heard noises coming from. He slammed open the door, crying worriedly for his buddy. "Yugi!"
Billiard balls flew in the air and some of them hit Joey, but they didn't make any serious damage. However, Joey spotted a weak Yugi who fell down on his knees after being hit by the billiard balls.
Joey ran over to Yugi and caught him before he fell down on the floor. "Yugi! Are you okay?!" The group gathered by Joey and Yugi while the blonde boy glared at Fuwa. "Fuwa! How dare you do that to Yugi!" He handed the weak boy to Aurora before he climbed up on the billiards table to get to Fuwa. "Now you're dealing with me!"
But suddenly the blonde boy's foot got stuck in the table. Fuwa had his chance and moved away before Joey tripped down on the floor. Tristan decided to aid Joey and grabbed a broom to hit Fuwa, but the broom got blocked by the ceiling lamp that broke off and fell down on Tristan.
A double K.O.
Fuwa just snorted amusedly. "Fools. Still don't get it? I'm protected with my powerful luck. Guys like ya can't even touch me."
"Hey! What are you thinking?!" Anzu shouted at the arrogant guy.
"How mean!" Miho growled. "I thought you were a nicer guy than this, Fuwa-kun!"
"What are ya commoners prattling 'bout?" Fuwa asked, snorting. "Just be glad I let ya hang out with me. Gotta know yer place." He let out a huge laugh.
"You may think you got everything you want in your life, just because you're lucky, but that's where you're wrong, Fuwa-kun", Aurora said, holding Yugi closer to her chest in bridal style.
Fuwa looked at Aurora with slight confused eyes. "Oh? And what makes ya say that?"
Joakim and Miho walked over to Tristan to help him get off the ceiling lamp of his back while Anzu helped Joey up on his feet.
"When you act in the way you truly are, you will just lose the respect you want from everyone around you", Aurora replied. "You're selfish and arrogant and egoistic, and the time when you will wish for friends in your life, they will just turn their backs on you because they don't want a stuck-up guy like you by their side."
"Consider this as a goodbye present from us, loser", Joakim added before the group left the cellar and Fuwa's house.
XXXXXXXXXX
The group walked to Yugi's house where the girls could treat Yugi's bruises on his cheeks. The boy kept hissing in pain every time Anzu, Aurora and Miho touched his sore cheeks.
"Put up with it", Anzu told him.
"Yugi-kun, you're a big boy, right?" Miho added.
"Yeah, but…", Yugi mumbled.
"It's okay, Mutou-kun", Aurora told him with a calm and nice voice. "Everyone needs to get out the pain somehow. It doesn't make you weak."
"Hey, Aura!" Anzu used her scolding voice at the female twin.
"Oh, hush, Anzu!" Joakim said. "Even I hiss through my teeth when Mom and Aura treat my wounds."
Joey sat on the floor, looking very ashamed. He was now regretting that he ever admired Fuwa who was nothing but a stuck-up son of a bitch!
Pardon the language, but that's the truth.
Tristan sat on the chair to Yugi's desk when he spotted a letter on the table. "Yugi. It's a letter from the TV station."
"Grandpa must have left it for me", Yugi said. "Can you read it?"
Tristan ripped open the letter and read the message which was a huge surprise. "This…! This is a request for you to appear on Game de Get show!"
"What?!" Joakim exclaimed. "No way in hell…"
"Really?!" Joey exclaimed and looked at the letter to see if it was real.
"Why me?" Yugi wondered.
"It says they want you to challenge Fuwa", Tristan replied.
Joey turned immediately to Yugi, pointing at himself. "Yugi! Can you let me do that?! Please!" Everyone looked confused at his request. "Fuwa, that bastard. I won't be satisfied till I waste him with my own hands! And if I get the prize, it's two birds with one stone! I can repay my dad's loans!"
"Well, that gives him at least a big motivation", Aurora commented.
XXXXXXXXXX
So it was decided. Joey would take Yugi's place and enter the show.
Yugi and the others sat by the spectator when the show begun. They clapped their hands along with the other guests that came to watch the game show.
"Big money! Game de Get show!" the host opened the show. "Once again this week, it's time to dream about getting big money! Today's challenge is Mutou Yugi-kun from Domino High. He's sixteen years old."
But it was actually Joey who was sitting on the seat assigned for the challengers in the show.
"Seems his dream is to win the prize and repay his dad's debts", the host explained for the guests.
The guests clapped their hands while Joey felt a bit embarrassed. It felt a bit odd to be called by a friend's name, but he wanted to do everything he could to get the prize and repay his stupid father's debts.
"Go, Joey!" Anzu encouraged the blonde boy.
"Don't lose to Fuwa!" Tristan shouted.
"Beat him down, Joey!" Joakim shouted as well.
"And the nine time winner", the host began. "Our champ, as you know, it's him! Loved by the goddess of luck! The miraculous man! Fuwa Ryuichi!"
On the other side of the stage, Fuwa went up on the wall with an electric chair that worked like an elevator. And speaking of him, he was quite surprised to see that Joey had taken Yugi's place. He got a bit disappointed, but he got over it quickly.
"Well, don't matter", Fuwa shrugged. "The result's the same no matter who I face."
"Now. Today's Electric Concentration", the host said as a board with cards having letters from A to K on was lowered down to the stage. "The rules are simple! The one that gets the most cards from the concentration board wins. But there is one Joker. If you get that, all your cards go to your opponent. So the challenger goes first."
Joey made a quick move. "A and K."
Those cards were flipped over, revealing one 3 of Diamonds and one 5 of Diamonds. Not a match.
"Too bad! Now the champion's turn", the host said as the cards were flipped back.
"A and C", Fuwa replied boringly.
Those cards revealed one 3 of Diamonds and one 3 of Spades! A match!
"Well done. It was correct!" the host nodded.
It was then everyone saw Joey getting a shock from the seat where he sat, surprising the watchers.
"Wh-What's wrong?!" Tristan exclaimed.
"That was never showed in the TV before!" Joakim added.
"Oh. I forgot to mention it", the host said, acting like he had forgotten something important. "If your opponent obtains cards, you'll get a mild shock."
So for each and every match Fuwa made, Joey got a shock. Aurora couldn't help but notice something on the game board. It was like there was a certain pattern for each matching cards. She couldn't help but feel this game was rigged!
Once the show was over, Joey got some help from staff member to get to the room that was assigned for guests where he met his friends. Joey sat on a chair as the group surrounded him, looking really worried. He was exhausted by the shocks he got.
"Are you okay, Joey?" Yugi asked worriedly.
"I suppose", Joey replied a bit weakly.
"But Fuwa, that bastard, he's not human", Tristan growled.
The door to the room opened, revealing Fuwa who had overheard Tristan's comment. "Right. I'm a god." His eyes turned ugly at the sight of Joey's weak condition. "Joey. Yer workin' pretty hard fer yer dad's debts." He grew a bit disgusted of the sad story. "I suppose ya want me ta cry for ya. That kind of story is what I hate the most. How lazy! I'm disgusted!"
The twins grew mad at Fuwa's attitude, and Joey was taking it to heart and that made him angry. He got up from the chair he was resting and approached Fuwa, wanting to beat him down. "You bastard!"
But Joey was still weak from the shocks he got earlier and collapsed on all four. Yugi knelt down next to him to aid him.
"Joey", Yugi called worriedly before he turned to Fuwa. "That's so mean, Fuwa-kun!"
Fuwa glared at Yugi. "Mutou Yugi. You're also da type I hate the most! A weak, pathetic being!"
"You didn't have to go so far that you actually wanted to hurt me, Fuwa-kun!" Yugi said. "If I had known about it, then I wouldn't let Joey take my place!"
"Ya sure are nice, Yugi", Fuwa said sarcastically before he kicked down the little boy.
Yugi fell down on the floor, making Miho and Anzu cry out for the sudden action. Yugi's friends except the twins watched with horror how Fuwa placed his foot on Yugi's head, keeping him down on the floor.
The three ancient spirits appeared and they looked at each other before nodding. It was time for a Shadow Game.
XXXXXXXXXX
A week passed without any trouble. Fuwa had transferred back to his old school, so he wasn't bullying or bragging anymore in Yugi's class.
Yugi and his friends had gathered in the game shop to watch the new episode of Game de Get show. It was the tenth week, so that meant Fuwa might go home with 100,000 yen in his pocket.
"Damn… Fuwa, that bastard", Joey cursed. "Today will be his tenth win."
"We'll see if he can make it, buddy", Joakim smirked.
"He will make it, damn it!" Joey growled and hit the kitchen table with his fist.
"Just watch", Aurora told him.
The game in tonight's show was the electric roulette. The challenger got two, so you would think it would be a piece for cake for Fuwa to win.
But hear this and drop the cake! Fuwa actually got one! He lost!
And that wasn't enough. When his electric chair lowered down to the floor, it actually broke down.
"What?! The chair broke!" Joey exclaimed in surprise.
"Fuwa-kun's lost his luck it seems", Yugi couldn't help but smile a bit.
Joakim smirked, "Welcome to the commoners' world, former Gladstone Gander."
"What's with you and your Gladstone Gander comment, Kim?" Joey wondered.
Aurora smiled lightly and shook her head. Obviously the three ancient spirits made sure Fuwa lost his luck…if there even was one.
Who knew if Fuwa had actually used money to bribe almost everything around him like the Chinese restaurant or the TV show? After all, his family seemed to be rich considering how big his home was, and having servants was a huge hint.
XXXXXXXXXX
Sorry that I skipped the Shadow Game. I thought it wasn't so important in this since Yami didn't give Fuwa a valuable lesson as he usually does whenever he wins a Shadow Game.
Why do you think Joey was close to Aurora in this chapter? Was it because she fed him of her top level stamina lunchbox in the last chapter, or is there another reason?
