Konnichiwa! Yes, there will be deleted scenes later, but for now, ON WITH
THE FIC!

I woke up to Dad's cold touch. I jumped. "Don't do that!" I told him. I looked
around and could tell this wasn't a dream. But if it was, it had to be a double or triple
dream. "Let me guess; Mom's freaked out, the police are searching for me, and Sam
thinks I went away to Outward Bound." He looked surprised. "Actually, you're right on
the dot. Day isn't sure whether to tell your mother or not about what happened when you
disappeared. I just hope you haven't gotten yourself into any trouble." "Don't worry;
except for meeting with the Yugioh! cast, being listed as a duelist, and staying at the
Turtle Game shop, things are normal", I replied sarcastically. "Should I send a message
to Day?" he asked. I nodded. "Tell him it's summertime and that Battle City is just
starting. And to tell him not to do this because it isn't that fun." Dad nodded. "Will do",
and then he disappeared. Then I heard footsteps. Running footsteps. Yugi ran inside in
blue pajamas. "Casey! Joey never got to the hospital! His mother phoned me!" "Um
Yugi, could you let me get dressed?" because my "change of clothes" happened to be my
favorite t-shirt and shorts. "Oh", he left embarrassed. Then I locked the door and changed
into my other clothes. Then I brushed my teeth ( I had packed some toiletries) and put on
a 'liner (don't ask) then ran downstairs. I quickly ate some breakfast that Mr. Moto made,
and I ran to catch up with Yugi. He began running, and so did I. We both met up with
Tea and Tristan, who was riding on a motorcycle. "I checked all of his usual spots", he
said, taking off his helmet. "We can't give up yet", Yugi replied determinedly. That's
what I liked about him. I wished that there weren't so many Yami/Tea fics on the web.
I'd go well with him. We began searching, but in the end it was Tristan who found out
where he was. Then we all went to the Domino City Hospital, well there was a small
conversation between Joey and Serenity before she ran out and hugged her big brother. I
felt left out, missing Day. Some tears came to my eyes, but I brushed them off before
anyone could see them. Then Tea, Yugi, and I walked back to the Game Shop. "I take it
you didn't have that much clothing, Casey", Tea stated. "Well, no", I admitted. "So, let's
go to the mall", before I could protest she grabbed my arm and began dragging me. I was
thinking.This ought to be fun.
It actually was. For someone who is one of my favorite girl characters, Tea sure
knew how to pick clothes. It got even better when we met up with Mai Valentine. She
showed us how to get discounts at certain stores. I liked her. But I was way surprised
when she ought me a portable CD player with headphones along with "Let Go", which is
one of Avril Lavigne's albums. "Consider it a sign of friendship", she said, walking
away. I put on the CD and began singing to my favorite song: Skater Boy:
He was a boy, she was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
He was a punk, she took ballet
What more can I say?
He wanted her, she'd never tell
Secretly she wanted him as well
All of her friends stuck up their noses
They had a problem with his preppy clothes
(chorus)
He was a skater boy she said "See you later, boy."
He wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face but her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to Earth
(end chorus)
Five years from now she sits at home
Feeding the baby, she's all-alone
She turns on TV, guess who she sees?
Skater boy rocking on MTV
She calls up her friends, they already know
And they all got tickets to see his show
She tags along, and stands in the crowd,
And looks up at the man that man that she turned down
(chorus)
He was a skater boy, she said, "See you later, boy."
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a superstar, slamming on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth
(repeat chorus)
(interlude)
Sorry girl, but you missed out
Well tough luck, that boy's mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see
See the man that boy could be
There is more than meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside
He's just a boy, and I'm a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
We are in love, haven't you heard?
How we rock each other's world?
(chorus)
I'm with the skater boy, I said "see you later boy."
I'll be backstage after the show
I'll be at the studio, singing the song we wrote
About a girl you used to know
(repeat chorus)
(end song)
When I finished, Mai and Tea were staring at me. "I never knew you could sing
that well", Tea was flustered. I was embarrassed. "You never asked", I pointed out.
When I got to the Turtle Game Shop, Yugi came from the kitchen. "Casey, there's
something I want to ask you", he said. He sounded curious. I walked in, remembering
that I had told Yugi he could take a look at my deck. Uh-oh. He showed me my three
Blue Eyes White Dragons. "Where did you get these?" he asked. I tried to come up with
a quick answer. "How about we duel? If you win, I'll tell you everything, but if I win,
you can't ask anything more about it." "Deal." we shook hands on it, and began shuffling
our decks. Yugi switched to Yami, and he said, "Ladies first." "Fine, Yami." Whoops. I
knew our duel was going to be a disaster.
