Chapter 26: Autumn – 173 words
A/N: I have a better idea of what to do here, but it's starting to seem like I'm writing the same story over and over.
Ryou looked out the window and sighed. English class was taking far too long. The leaves were dancing in the wind that battered the window he was staring at.
"Ryou Bakura!" Ryou snapped to attention and stood up, ignoring the stares and snickers that followed anyone getting caught by the teacher. "Please translate the following sentence into English: Mary prefers playing soccer to playing baseball."
Ryou stumbled his way through the translation with relative ease and sat back down, tuning out the rest of the teacher's lecture. The leaves continued dancing in their own ballet, to their own, unheard tune.
Suddenly, Ryou felt a hand on his shoulder, and he jerked into consciousness, "Hey, c'mon! We only have twenty minutes to see Joey's duel!" Yuugi tugged on Ryou's shoulder and tugged him to his feet and towards the bus stop that would drop them off in front of the building where Joey had cut class to compete in one of the many Kaiba Corp-hosted dueling tournaments (this time without the Shadow Games.)
A/N: Well, that happened. I've been writing non-stop during play practice since it's easier to hide a few pages of looseleaf than a giant Physics book...yeah...
Read and review, please?
