Yuugi's a Girl?!
Sugar and Games
Yuya paid for the clothes, (can someone say, credit card?) and suddenly said, "Are you hungry? I sure am! Let's go to the food court!"
"OK." Yami wondered what a 'food court' was. Well, it's probably somewhere where you can get food, since she said she was hungry. They went to the food court, and she ordered a large pepperoni pizza plus crazy bread from Little Caesar's. They ate the pizza (Yami: "What's pizza?", but he liked it.), and went to wash up. She showed him where the guy's bathroom was, then went in her own. They came out, and Yuya asked, "Would you like dessert? How about some chocolate ice-cream?"
Yami asked, "What's chocolate? And ice cream?"
You've never had ice cream?" Yuya asked in astonishment. "I thought everybody had! Well, chocolate is a flavor, and ice cream is kind of like frozen milk. It's really good!"
"I'll try it then," he said doubtfully. They ate the ice cream, and Yami was on his way to his very first sugar high. Yuya had originally planned to go to her grandpa's game shop (which was in the mall) and see if he had any interesting cards, but was hesitant about going with Yami, especially with his sugar high.
"I was going to the game shop, but if you would rather go home.."
"What do you mean? I would love to go to the game shop!! That's so cool! I want to look at the duel monster cards! Let's go!!" Yami starts walking.
"Okay, first of all, the game shop is in the other direction, and second of all, CALM DOWN! I don't need a hyperactive.whatever you are. Let's go." She was slightly nervous at seeing her grandpa after so much time, so she was slightly rude to Yami. They got to the shop, only to find a tournament was going on! "Hey, that's really cool! Do you want to sign up to duel? Gramps has a great arena that we can use. But first, I want to see what cards he has for sale and trade. I might want to switch out some of my old cards." *she holds up her deck to emphasize this* "Some of them are really kid's or beginner's cards, and I would like to get rid of a couple."
"Okay, sure! That sounds like fun!" Yami walked over to the counter. "What is your favorite card?"
"The Dark Magician and the Magician of Black Chaos." She answered quickly, without having to think about it.
Yami was surprised. "Do you have those cards? They're rare, and very powerful."
"Yes, I do. My mother gave them to me, and she inherited them from her mother, and so on, since they first came out. Family stories say that we got them from the original creator of Duel Monsters, before Pegasus re- invented the game." Yuya replied. "I don't like them just because they're powerful, or rare, but because of their history. I would like them just as much if they were Beaver Warrior or Cupid's Arrow." (I think that's a card. Doesn't Tea play it in her duel with Mai?)
Yami nodded. "I understand. My deck has a similar history behind it, I think. Well, if those are your favorite cards, why not try this one?"
"Dark Magician Girl? I've never heard of her. What are her points?" Yuya asked.
Yami didn't even have to look at the card. "2000 Attack and 1700 defense. Her Attack increases for every Dark Magician or Chaos Magician in the Graveyard."
She nodded. "She sounds perfect. Do you see any mirror walls or mirror force?" She asked. "I would like one of those, my defense is a little weak."
He holds up another card. "Try Negate Attack." They go through the cards, discussing the good and bad points of each one. An older man walks up.
"May I help yo-Yuya! I almost didn't recognize you! Are you looking for some cards?" All of Yuya's nervousness came rushing back.
"Y-yes," she stammered. "I was mainly looking at defense and magic cards, since my defense is a little weak.
"Well, dragon cards are becoming more and more popular, so take these two: Dragon Capture Jar and Dragon Horn. How many dragons do you have?"
"Two, Curse of Dragon and Winged Guardian of the Fortress. What does Dragon Horn do?"
"It calls out two dragons from the hand, and can bring the opponent's dragon over to your side. (yes, I'm pretty sure it doesn't do that, but give me artistic license!) Dragon Capture Jar can hold more than one dragon, so it's pretty good." Grampa was flipping through the cards as he spoke. "Oh, here's a rare one, Eye of the Gorgon. It turns any monster in defense into stone, and reduces its defense points by half. Take them as my welcome to town present to you." He hands her all the cards she has been holding.
"But I can't take these! They're too valuable!" Yuya protested.
"Oh, nonsense! I own the shop, I can give away a few cards if I want to! Who is your friend?" Grampa asked, suddenly noticing Yami.
"Oh, this is Yami.Majishan!" (Means magician, so Yami's name translated from Japanese is Dark Magician! If I'm wrong, don't blame me, blame my dictionary.) Yuya answered with some quick thinking. "He moved into the apartment complex recently, just like I did, so we became friends."
"Oh, how nice! Do you duel too, Yami?"
"Yes, but I only want to watch Yuya duel today! Can she sign up now?" Yami asked quickly. Grampa pulled Yuya aside, and whispered, "I think your fried is a little.strange. What's wrong with him?"
Yuya giggled. "He's on a sugar high from the chocolate ice-cream. I think he may have gotten brain freeze too. Where do I sign up? I can't wait to find out what kind of talent you have here." She had been champion back in her old city, but never entered any national tournaments, so only those back there and Grampa here knew it.
"Right over here." He pulled her over to a table, and Yami trailed behind. "Sign here and put down the number of cards you have. This will only be used if someone accuses you of cheating by pulling cards from your sleeve, or something like that. No one else will know." She signed, and was told, "Your opponents will be assigned in fifteen minutes, from those in approximately your grade level. Here is a list of those currently signed up." She saw her name being added as he spoke.
"Ok, sounds good! I can't wait!"
