A Yu-Gi-Oh! Fanfiction
Genre: Romance (defiantly) and a little humor/general
Rated: R (see below)
A/N: the high rating is because of swearing, violence, and very mature scenes. And when I say very mature, I mean all the way, and I mean early on. If you don't like to read that stuff, then exit out of this story right now. If you think that this stuff is freaking awesome, then I welcome you to my shrine!
: This isn't just a Yu-Gi-Oh! Fanfiction, it also has Rurouni Kenshin and technically Avatar, but not really.
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! or any of its characters. Heck, I don't even own all of the made up ones!
Chapter 22- Battle City
"Ladies, gentlemen, and duelists of all sizes, welcome to the Kaiba Corporation Battle City Tournament. Those of you here have been invited by myself, Seto Kaiba, to try and duel to the top. Each of you have a state-of-the-arc KaibaCorp Duel Disk and a locator card. You need six locator cards to come to the finalists' round at a secret location. If you pile all six on top of each other, then it will tell you the secret location. Please note the new rules that are different from Duelist Kingdom. They should have come in your letter about this tournament. I bid you good luck, because you will quite frankly, need it."
The big screens through out the city of Domino went blank of Kaiba's face. He had installed them for just this purpose, and now they were coming to good use. Seto stepped away from the camera, and signaled Joey to come forth. "Your guys ready?"
"Man, we were born ready! Just let us get into our spots and I'll signal the camera dude, and you can go back to countin' your money or whateva you do fo' fun."
Seto was going to say something, but he just let it go. Man, Hailey must really be getting to me about being nice to the mutt, or I'd have just thrown him out the window.
Drummer: Virtual systems ready! (Cue fog)
The spotlights were coming on them one at a time. First the drummer, then the base, who were in the back. Then the keyboardist and the acoustic guitarist on the sides. And then Joey's lit up in the front and center of the stage. He played the electric guitar, and he also has on his duel disk, but right now his guitar was behind his back so he could sing.

Joey thought he could hear the crowds cheering. He was sweating, and his heart beat was racing. Performing wasn't his best thing at doing, especially when he had just made up the dance moves the night before.
"Good job, Wheeler, the crowds seemed to like the song, considering that around one of the monitors it looks like an ocean of blue duel disks and multi-colored tee-shirts. Here's your money." Kaiba thrust the check in Joey's hands and made way for a leave.
"Hold on! I thought we were doing two songs? Are ya cheap skating me? Cause if ya are—"
"Wheeler, you mutt, people liked your band, but the whole idea is to get the to duel, not just watch cheap bands." Seto, once again, tried to make a leave.
"Hailey wouldn't like it if she found out that y'all are cheatin' me, one o' her best friends."
"Hailey's mine and I love her dearly, but she has nothing to do with this conversation." Seto said while he was clenching his fists. Joey had better keep Hailey out of this, or he'll be in a world of hurt.
"O' course she has everythin' to do with this! I mean, how many times have you been down with her, three, four, less?"
"WHEELER, SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Seto was having a hard time controlling his anger. "We conceived a child together, and even though it's none of your business, we have been active for a while since."
"Well it's a shame you weren't there for her first, cause I'll tell you what, it was good." Joey was having fun testing Kaiba's nerves. Though when Seto went pale and then red with anger all too quickly, Joey realized that he had laid it on a little too hard.
"YOU FUCK ASS LIAR! I WAS HER FIRST, AND YOU HAVE NOT GONE ANYWHERE NEAR THAT STAGE WITH HER. I'M HER LOVER, I KNOW THESE THINGS, AND YOU CAN GO TO HELL!" Seto had had enough. All it took was one gaze towards the full length windows, and it was a matter of seconds before Seto had throne Joey out of one.
But then Seto saw his reflection, but saw Gozaburo Kaiba instead of Seto Kaiba. "Oh no, I've turned into the monster my step father was!" he quickly looked down the window, and saw Joey on a window cleaner's stoop five levels down. Joey was unconscious, and his head was hanging out of the stoop. If he were to fall, it would be 25 levels to his death, and Seto's. Hailey would never forgive him. Seto went to his phone. "Lance, I need you to lift up you window stoop to the top level. There is an unconscious man on it, and he needs medical help."
"Right away, sir."
That was the easy call, now he had to make one more, to his wife. Seto drew in a large breath and started dialing the numbers of her cell phone.
"Hailey…"
I now have the idea for the rest of the story! I mean, I might have said that before, but now I really have it, and I'm going to keep it. Oh, for the people who choose Seto as their favorite character, you'll probably hate me for this, but the adventure of it should over power any other feelings of it.

Oh yes, I know that battle city is old new and we all know how it ends, but since it is over, I can manipulate it all that I want and people still follow the plot line.
