Chapter 2: Poor Jounouchi! Yuugi's point of View
"Yuugi, how did you become so good at dueling?" Honda asked, leaning on his chair. "It's the love for the game, the heart of the cards and practice and patience." I shrugged. I looked over at the bedroom wing, why'd Jono leave so fast? I wonder if he's okay. I got up and looked at everybody, "Hey guys I'm gonna go check on Jono, You know, see if he's okay." Honda shrugged. "Maybe he had too much to eat." I smiled and nodded as I walked to the bedroom wing. I looked at the oak door and knocked on it. Silence. "Jono? Are you okay?" I waited. Still, silence. Then the door opened, Jono kept his head low as I watched him slump into a chair. "What happened? Are you okay?" I walked over to Jono. He kept his head hung low and stayed quiet. "Yuugi.I did the best I could." I knew he did the best he could, is he ashamed that he lost against me? "I know you did your best-" "Serenity's blind" I looked at him and blinked. Oh no, poor Jono. He did try his hardest, and for what? For his little sister and he got the prize money, just for her. She's blind..I couldn't imagine what Jono was thinking at the moment, angry? Sad? Hurt? "Jono, I'm sorry.I know..I know you tried your hardest.and.for what?" It killed me to see him like this, I watched in agony as Jono shut his eyes and practically died. A tear slid down his face as he fought back the tears. Then, what surprised me, he started laughing. "It's sort of funny.how life plays tricks on you. Or, how you hate your worst enemy then you feel sad when you see them crying. Or, how you try your very hardest to save the ones you love, but fail." Jono opened his eyes, now letting the tears fall down his face, he looked up at the ceiling. "When I called my mom to find out how she was doing, she told me about what happend. It hurt me. I didn't even have the guts to talk to Serenity without guilt, so I didn't talk to her at all." Jono swinged one leg up on the bed and looked at me. "I don't feel like talking right now, Yuugi, maybe later." I nodded and left without saying much, I was sure that he was pretty sad, more then sad.depressed. I walked back to the others. "So how's the runt holding up?" Seto snorted. I just gave Seto a serious look and walked past him. "What? Is he remembering that he sucked at dueling in the first place?" Seto turned to face me as I passed him. He was about to say more then I turned around to look at him. "Seto, I saved your life and your little brother's life so do me a favor and stop ruining my best friends life." I turned back around and made my way to the back of the ship. to the back of the ship. Seto's Point of Veiw
I watched as Yuugi gave me a nasty look and leave. Did he know I was only joking? Or was he just high on edge? Or maybe something happened to Jono. Hrm..I made my way to the main hall where I saw Honda and Anzu playing a game of chess. I didn't say anything, I just sat down on the couch and watched them for a while. What could have happened to the loser now? Come to think of it, I never really knew why Jono had entered the compition.I knew Yuugi wanted to save his grandfather, Mai wanted the prize money so she wouldn't have to work, Bandit Keith wanted revenge..why did Jono duel? "Tell me Honda." I started, looking at Anzu and Honda. "Hm?" Honda was startled, he usually never did talk to me, nor did I talk to him. Honda swung his head in my direction, waiting for me to finish. "I knew why everyone dueled except for Jounouchi, why did he duel?" one of Honda's eyebrows raised. "You never knew and you still made fun of him? That's low." I closed my eyes and crossed my arms. "That was me then, now that it's all over I want to know because I remember he did try his hardest against me, so just answer the damn question." Honda looked at me for a second then he put his arms over his head and leaned on the couch, looking up at the stars. "Jono has a little sister who he cares deeply for, when they were little, Jono and his little sister, Serenity, found out that their parents were getting divorced. Serenity was devastated so Jono made it up to her by bringing her to the beach. Serenity's eyesight has always been bad, since the day she was born, and it'd only get worse over time so after that, Jono promised he'd show her the beach one more time before she went blind, he entered the compititon to win the prize money for his little sister's sake." Honda looked back at the chess board. "That's why Joun fought so hard against you." Anzu said, knocking over Honda's queen. "Checkmate." I nodded and looked to the side of them. I never knew that. Who would have known that a punk like Jounouchi would enter this whole thing just for his sister, not me for one. I watched as Honda ran after Anzu yelling that she cheated for a while then I got up and headed to the bedroom wing, I owe him an apology.
