Part 1: A New World

Yu-Gi-Oh

Kevin's 6th Grade Life

First off, I would like to thank Forever Free Evergreen for being the 1st review of this story. Forever gave me a heads up on some mistakes I made for the prologue and am really thankful for their help.

About the numbers, just think about them as the alphabet.

Edited: (08/05/21) Hmmm, there were a few grammatical errors. Oof.

Chapter 1 The Last Memory

"Being human means having a life unlike any other creature on Earth. They feel, they taste, they see, they smell, they hear, and these distinct qualities make them whom they chose to be."

Kevin

I still remember that strange conversation between a being and my mom. The being went with the name of Green. They said it could help my mom with her problem. I was slowly dying off inside her and there was nothing the doctors could do to save me.

Except for Green. Green told my mom I could be saved.

"How?" She had asked.

Green replied with a simple word, "Miracle."

I felt my mom's desperation for me to come out healthy and okay. She didn't have another option but to accept Green's help. I began to have hope. Green gave me the gift of powers. Green told her of how I would grow up, unlike any other normal human.

Though, it warned my mom that powers come with a price. Meaning, that Fate had already chosen my life, but my destiny still gave me choices.

Green had said. "The battle between Good and Evil has begun."

No one's POV

An 11-year old boy looks at the brown bricked house he was soon going to leave behind. He then feels a hand on his shoulder.

"You ready Kevin?" His mom asks.

"Not really. Like if I had a choice to be ready or not," he points out with a shrug.

She pulls away and Kevin faces her. "Yeah, I know. It's for the best though, honey. I promise things will turn out great. You'll see. Now, why don't you check inside the house to see if we left anything behind."

Kevin nods and goes inside the big house. He first looks at the empty living room; where the two couches and the 42-inch Panasonic TV used to be. He smiles remembering all the sleepovers he used to have He walks to the guest bedroom and opens the door. He goes in and starts to remember who he had to keep hidden in order to protect his family. He shakes his head with a smile and exits the guest room, closing the door behind him.

He walks to his left, opening the door to his room, and steps inside. He then looks around the empty bedroom and notices the triangular pictures beginning to appear on the walls.

In a couple of seconds, the room is filled with pictures; memories of Kevin's life. The adventures, obstacles, challenges, and complete craziness; full of laughs and drama. In front of him, he sees 2 blank pictures. With one finger, he touches one of them and it slowly begins to come to life.

Now, the picture shows him standing in his room watching all the pictures appear.

He just needs one more; one more picture to fulfill a prophecy that has been weighing him down since he was told by his dearest former best friend. He smiles, knowing that the last memory will be something he was willing to do since a long time ago.

Kevin's mom pulls up on the curb and parks the van in front of their friend's 2-story house. They both get off and head to the front door. Though, right when Kevin's mom is about to ring the bell, a tall black-haired girl with a cute blue dress comes out.

"Oh," She says in disappointment. "It's time, isn't it, Fabby."

Fabby nods. "Yeah, Gisela." She holds out her arms for a hug, which Gisela happily accepts hugging her back. Fabby and Gisela have been really good friends since Kevin's mom had encouraged her to stay strong for her brother when he was severely ill. Gisela took in her strong words and she held hope throughout those difficult times. Kevin's mom became an idol to Gisela and after those tough times, she decided to dedicate some of her time to help the children in need.

She began to participate in charities to raise money to help them. Kevin always found her in special groups that hosted events for charities.

Pulling away, Gisela says to Kevin's mom, "It was really awesome getting to know someone like you."

"Same, sweetie. You have grown a lot and I'm really proud of you. You are a special girl," she tells her.

Gisela blushes. "Thanks."

"Hey. Don't think of this as a goodbye. Think of it as a 'We got to go do things someplace else.' We'll be back before you know it."

Gisela smiles, "I know. I know you'll be back soon. I'll be here waiting for you two." She glances at Kevin with a smile. He smiles back.

"Are you going to the event?" Fabby asks her.

She nods. "Yeah, I need to collect Stephanie, before she decides to ditch me. You know, like always."

"Oh, yeah. Stephanie should really get rid of that stage fright. She was going to sing today right?" Kevin asks her.

"Yeah, but now they want me to help her with a duet performance," she says annoyed.

"Are you going to sing too?" Kevin asks in excitement.

Gisela nods. "Yeah."

"Mom, can we go? I really want to see her sing and be spectacular. You know how awesome she sings."

Gisela blushes.

"I know, and I can't argue with that, but sadly we can't go. We got to get to the apartment by 3 because the manager will be there and he's going to give us the key," Fabby says.

Kevin frowns. "Oh, Okay."

"I'm really am sorry we won't be able to make it to your performance, sweetie."

"That's ok. I understand."

Fabby smiles. "Cool. Is your mom around so I can give her the keys?"

"Yeah. She's in the kitchen." Gisela tells her.

"K. I'll let you two catch up for a bit," she says and leaves.

Gisela looks at Kevin and smiles. "Hi."

"Hello," he returns back. "You look beautiful by the way"

She blushes, looking away. "Thanks."

"I really wanted to go to your performance," Kevin says.

She shrugs. "I really don't mind. I mean..." She takes a deep breath. "It doesn't really matter."

"What do you mean?"

"I know what you did to everyone," she then tells him. Kevin raises his eyebrows surprised that Gisela found out. "You know, you didn't have to erase everyone's memories of you."

"I know, but Mariah's vision clearly showed that in order to postpone that prophecy, I had to do what I had to do. I also need to leave because if I stay, I'll bring destruction, chaos, and suffering to everyone here. I don't want that and I know you don't want that either."

"Even if it means being together," Gisela whispers.

"What?" he questions confused.

"Why didn't you ever tell me you liked me?" she asks.

"Gisela, I have always liked you. You have been a really good friend to me in tough times."

"I know, but I mean like have feelings for me," she clarifies.

"Oh… I… I…"

"Please don't deny it, Kevin. I know you never liked Yadi. She liked you, but you never had those same feelings as she had towards you. Or am I wrong?"

Kevin shakes his head, looking away. "No. I didn't want to involve you in my problems. I had enemies trying to kill me where ever I was and I couldn't show them that I had special feelings towards anyone. If they had found out, they could have used you to get to me and eventually take me down. What if they had hurt you? I couldn't have lived peacefully knowing that someone I truly cared about was in danger every minute of the day because of me."

Gisela doesn't say anything for a second and Kevin looks at her waiting for a response.

She then begins to admit, "I also care about you and I should have told you something, but I was scared. Do you remember that night of the dares; when my stupid brother had all of us locked up in the garage and the only way he would have let us go free was if we agreed to play his game?"

"Yeah. I couldn't forget such a great night," Kevin with a laugh. "Adrian dared me to kiss the girl I liked." He gives out a short laugh. "I gave Yadi a kiss on the cheek."

"You did, but that wasn't the dare. The dare was to kiss a person on the lips and instead of kissing Yadi; you stood up and looked around."

"My eyes landed on a special girl I always had my eyes on since the day I met. I headed to you, sat down beside you, looked at your confused green eyes, and-"

"Unexpectedly kissed me," Gisela concludes. "You surprised me. Instead of kissing Yadi, you kissed me."

"You could have pushed me away, you know," Kevin then tells her.

"I could have, but….I didn't," she admits. "I didn't know what to do. I had to kiss you back because I… I don't know. I just did. That night, I realized something."

By now, she has tears in her cheeks. "I realized, as confused as I was, I also had feelings towards you." Kevin looks away in defeat.

"You kissed me, instead of Yadi, and you could have avoided changing things between us, but you did what your heart wanted and I accepted it." Gisela grabs Kevin's face by surprise, whispering, "I want to return the dare," and kisses him.

Kevin caught off guard, stands there for a few seconds, before gaining full consciousness and kisses her back with all his heart. Gisela smiles, knowing should have done this a long time ago. Meanwhile, in Kevin's room, the last blank photo on the wall begins to slowly appear, showing the last memory; the memory of him kissing a very special girl, who he had special feelings for since that weird, crazy, and awesome night.

The room begins to glow in white light as the last memory is completed, and the other photos slowly begin to disappear. The last memory is soon taken by the white light as the "Prophecy of Memories" is completed.

Thanks for reading. Any type of comments would be appreciated.
