"KAILY!!! YUGI!!!!"
The twins jumped from their spot asleep on the floor of Yugi's room, scattering several papers in the process,"WHAT?!"
"Are you ready for school?"Mai was downstairs.
"We've been up for hours!"Kaily lied,'Damn, reasearch paper isn't finished yet.'
"I can write faster than you,"Yugi jumped up and grabbed one of his outfits out of his dresser and threw it at his double,"I'll get the paper done, stall Grandpa and Mai."
Kaily gave a salute and teleported out of the room.
*Wake up 90 miles an hour
Take the world's fastest shower
Coffee black, microwave it
I'm at my best caffinated*
Solomon looked worriedly at Mai,"She's as bad at lying as her father."
"Quit comparing her to Alexander,"Mai sat down and pulled a cup of coffee out of the microwave just in time for Kaily to appear in the room and grab it,"KAILY!"
"Sorry, in a hurry."Kaily gulped down the drink, burning her throuat,"Hot!! YUGI LET'S GO!!!!"
Yugi appeared next to her and the two ran out of the house,"I've got half a page left!"
"Finish it on the way!"
"Tell me I'm not the only one worried about them."Mai poured herself another cup of coffee,"She didn't even realize we ran out of decaf yesterday."
"That's our twins for you."Solomon shrugged,"Ever since the fight with Seth they've been rushing all over the place."
"OUR twins? Who gave birth to them?"
"Who raised one of them?"
*Out the door, pick up the pace
I'm here I'm there I'm every place*
T'ea took one look at the twins, who were currently asleep at their desks, and rolled her eyes,'Not again.'
'What?'Tristan, now across the school in Algebra 4, entered her mind.
'They're sleeping in class again,'Joey laughed,'aren't they?'
'Yeah,'T'ea couldn't help but smile,'It's gotta be hard, taking care of Industrial Illusions, babysitting Bakahno and their yamis, keeping an eye on the Shadow Games, going to school, AND being the captains of the track teams. I can barely stand just going to school and being on the track team.'
"Miss Pegasus,"their teacher tapped Kaily's desk with her ruler, only to receive and annoyed grunt,"T'ea, please wake your friends up."
"And risk getting killed?"T'ea looked at their teacher like she was crazy,"No way. Just let them sleep."
"Ugh!"
*That's how it goes
A day in my life
On my toes
From morning to night
Livin' like this
Some might say it's
So exaustin' frenzymatic
Call me nuts but I like it frantic*
Joey flopped down next to his twin best friends,"T'ea says you slept through Language Arts again."
Kaily growled and hit her laptop,"You try running Industrial Illusions, see how much fun it is!"
"It's no worse at Kaiba Corp."Kaiba walked up and looked over Kaily's shoulder,"You forgot to carry the two about five problems up."
"ARG!!!"Kaily gave her business partner a 'Do-You-Have-A-Death-Wish?' look.
"Don't look at me like that,"Kaiba rolled his eyes,"you're supposed to be a math wiz, besides, there's something called a calculator."
"Bakahno threw it out the window last week after he couldn't get it to stop beeping."Yuga appeared next to her light,"How's the bookeeping going?"
"Considering the fact that Dad's last bookeeper was a yutz,"Kaily snorted,"pretty good, only three more years to recover."
"It's a good thing you're used ta missin' sleep."Joey looked over Kaily's shoulder,"You can understand that stuff?"
"Easy."Yugi smirked,"If YOU'D stop sleeing through algebra."
*I'm not built for relaxin'
I get bored without some action
One speed is all I know
'Seize the day', yeah that's my motto*
"Mister Mutou?"Kemo, now Yugi's personal bodyguard, approached the male Mutou twin.
Yugi looked up from his homework,"Yeah?"
"Sorry to bother you,"Kemo rubbed the back of his head,"but you were supposed to be at the track meet ten minutes ago."
"WHA?!"Yugi jumped to his feet,"Why didn't you tell me?!"
"I fell asleep."
"How does my sister deal with this?!"Yugi's eyes glowed and he teleported out of the room.
*Maybe someday I'll slow down
Maybe someday, but for now*
Kaily, T'ea, Serenity, Serena, and Nova were all out on the feild stretching, with the help of Tristan and Joey. From the bleachers Kaiba, Aurora, Mokuba, and Solomon waited impatienly for the Domino City track meet to begin.
Mai watched seven of the ten star runners in Domino High and let out an exasperated sigh,"This is one of those times when I really HATE being a coach."
Kaily bent her legs out of the splits and looked up as Yugi appeared next to her,"Kemo fell asleep again."
Yugi nodded and began stretching,"Sorry I'm late."
"The other team's not even here yet."Nova shrugged,"How can you two stand rushing around so much?"
Kaily fingered the Millenium Ring, which now resided around her neck,"After everything that's happened, it would feel weird not having something come up every half hour. There's never a dull moment for us."
"By the way,"Tristan looked at the ring,"how's Bakahno suriving, I heard he trashed another electronic."
"Let's just say it's a real nightmare without Bakura babysitting him."Yugi smirked,"I'm suprised he hasn't killed Kail's CD player yet."
"Acutally,"Bakahno appeared behind the female guardian,"I couldn't get the thing to turn off."
"BAKAHNO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Kaily jumped to her feet and immediately began strangling the tomb robber,"I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!"

Kaily and Serenity exchanged glances. Nova, Serena, and T'ea had already won their races, along with Kaily, T'ea, Serenity, and Serena winning the relay race, now all that was need was for one of them to win the one mile dash and their team would go to the national championship. Yugi and Kaiba may have been Kaily's dueling rivals, but Serenity was the guardian's rival in racing.
"Good luck."Serenity smiled.
"Right back at ya."Kaily slipped the Millenium Ring into her shirt as a gun shot sounded the beginning of the race.
The two girls, along with compeditors from other schools, took off down the track. From the stands Joey nursed an injured ankle, which he'd twisted in his race a few minutes ealier. Yugi rolled his eyes and watched the two competeing girls race around the track,"Who do think will win?"
"I'm betting on Kaily-girl,"Tristan laughed,"she does so much running around, she gets more practice than the rest of us put together."
"Yeah, but Serenity is still fast."Yugi pointed out,"She can outrun Joey."
"Yeah, I let her win."Joey snorted, only to have T'ea kick him in the ankle,"OW!"
"AND SERENITY WHEELER WINS!!!!!!!!!!!"the announcer, aka Mokuba, shouted over the loudspeaker.
"How'd Mokuba ever get a job as an announcer when he still goes to elelmentary school?"Nova asked.
"That's what happens when the Mutou twins run the track teams."T'ea shrugged as Serenity and Kaily ran up, both laughing,"What's so funny?"
"I tripped!"Serenity laughed,"I tripped over the finish line!"
Everyone else cracked up, Joey was DEFFINITELY not the only Wheeler goof. Kaily flopped down next to her brother and grabbed a waterbottle out of her backpack,"That means the girls' track team is going to Tokyo in June for the national chapionship."
"If stupid hadn't twisted his ankle we'd be going too."the fourth member of the boys' track team, a teen with dark skin, blode hair and blue eyes, snorted.
"Oh shut up, Scott,"Kaily snarled,"everyone knows you're just jealous because Joey can run faster than you."
"And I've got a great girlfriend."Joey added as the remainder of their friends and family ran up,"Ow!"
"Miss Pegasus, Mister Mutou,"Croquet walked up,"your teacher just called. Apparently Kail handed in the plans for the new duel disk system, not your research paper."
Kaily paled,"Oops."
*Things I haven't done
Keep me on the run
But time it sure does fly
When you're havin' so much fun*
Yugi rolled his violet eyes,'Two months and she STILL hasn't gotten used to running Industrial Illusions, then again, being Kaiba's business partner is NOT easy. It feels so strange not having Bakura around. He's one of the few people I've seen who could deal with constant abuse from Bakahno AND my sister.'
'I HEARD THAT YUGI YU-GI-OH LANCE VALENTINE MUTOU!!!!' (Don't ask me where I came up with that, I don't know) (Yuga:Baka)
'He's also the only one Kail never yelled at. I know it still hurts her, losing Pegasus and Bakura nearly killed her. She won't admit it, but she cried for three days straight after the fight with Seth, losing our so called 'guardian animals' didn't help. I know she still hasn't gotten over it, but she, just like the rest of us, knows that we just have to go on with life. I just hope she and Aurora will be ok, they've been through so much.'

'Yugi thinks I've had it hard.'Kaily scrambled around Yugi's room, looking for the research paper on the different lives street children and normal children live she and Yugi had spent the last two weeks writing,'He's the one who nearly died, but, if Yugi hadn't been there, I NEVER would have gotten over Dad and Bakura. He finally got so fed up with me that he literally slapped me. I've never been so shocked in my life. Well, now that the two of us have to take care of Industrial Illusions, I've been so busy running around, I haven't had TIME to think about Bakura, thank Ra. Plus being the second best female track star in town doesn't help. Oh well, I like it this way. I'd die of boredom without so much rushing around.' "FOUND IT!!!"

Solomon and Mai looked up from their books as the front door of the mansion slammed and the twins, along with Serenity and Joey, walked in,"Long day?"
"We almost failed Home Ec. because Yugi switched our paper with the new plans for the duel disk system Seto and I are working on."Kaily flopped down in her favorite over stuffed chair next to a large fireplace,"I spent two hours looking for that paper."
"And it was sitting on my desk."Yugi rolled his eyes,"I hope you don't mind if Joey and Serenity spend the night, their mom's sick."
"Again?"Mai asked.
Joey and Serenity nodded and sat down on the couch and dropped their backpacks on the floor. Serenity pulled out one of her notebooks,"I just hope Joey doesn't get lost again."
"That only happened once!"Joey snapped.
"You still got lost."Yugi pointed out from his spot playing with the fire,"If I hadn't designed this house myself we never would have found you."
Joey growled and looked at Kaily, who was now working in her sketch book again,"Hey, Kaily-girl, what did Takuno say in World Life today, I slept through it again."
Kaily slapped her forehead,"Like I know, I spent most of the day sleeping too ya know."
"That reminds me."Serenity pulled a paper out of her notebook,"Miss Kalin has put us in the pen pal program. Since you decided to skip Lit again she told me to give you your pen pal assignment."
The female guardian groaned and took the paper,"Amane, a freshblood at Shinjuku High. Good greif, who came up with this bloody brilliant crap?"
"No wonder Kalin's not married yet."Joey muttered,"She's a quack."
"She also says if Kail doesn't participate she'll fail her."Serenity added.
"Ugh!!"
"Quit whining Kaily,"Solomon groaned,"you'll be able to take out your anger on this poor girl instead of us."
Kaily gave a wicked grin,"I think I'll get that first letter sent to her tonight."
"Me and my big mouth."

Subject:Someone tell me WHY I have to do this.
Dear Amane,
I'm gonna say this now:I don't see the point in this pen pal program and, frankly, I could care less about it. The only reason I'm doing this is because my teacher's threatening to fail me if I don't. I don't intend to have fun with this and I DEFFINITELY am going to kill Serenity for being such an angel and delivering my assignment to me. Just because she's the top female track star in town she thinks she can run errands for everyone. Whatever, you're probably thinking I'm just saying this because I'm a snobby, rich, millionare. If you want to, think that, I don't care. I've gotta go kill my best friend and his little sister. Kail, out. P.S. You call me Kaily and I swear I'll kick your sorry butt to Pluto and back, understood?'

Subject:Hi
Dear Ryou,
My name is Serenity, but you already knew that, didn't you? : P Sorry, I'm just excited. I'm on the girls' track team at my school and we just won a place in the national championships! Anyway, I agree with my psycotic friend Kail, this pen pal program is wacked, but, it's still useful for meeting new people. I hope this won't turn into a mess like the last time my mother tried to get me into this. I ended up pen pal to a gay 40 sum year old woman. Well, I'm being called for dinner. Plz write back soon. Serenity.'
And with that Shadow Guardian is complete. I spent I don't remember how long fighting with myself over this ending. I couldn't really think of anything else. It's a sort of let down, I now. I just couldn't think of anything else. And yes, Bakura really is dead. As my cousin's put it, I'm a drama freak. A friend of mine asked about Kaily's extreamly long name. Here's a little breakdown of it, along with Yugi's:
Kaily=duh, her name
Yugorana=Yuga, aka Yugorana, is a part of her, so, Yugorana became her second name
Destiny=her original middle name
Valentine=her original last name
Pegasus=her adoptive last name
Mutou=the last name she was given after Mai left
Yugi's:
Yugi=name
Yu-Gi-Oh=same with Yugorana in Kaily's name, Yu-Gi-Oh, aka Yami, is a part of Yugi
Lance=the middle name I gave him, since I don't know his real one
Valentine=same as Kaily
Mutou=same as Kaily, again
Any questions I'll be glad to answer and, before anyone asks, SEFFRA, I do intend to make a sequel as soon as I finish some of my other fics.
Vega:Yeah, that'd be nice
Can it, demon, anyway, I can't believe I'm done! In the beginning I had no intention of Kaily even falling for Bakura! I didn't even plan on Serena and Nova appearing, or Seth for that matter. God, what's going through my head lately?
Joey:We probably don't want to know
As some of my close friends and family that also read this will probably notice, I've already set the stage for my sequel. Mai, Kaily, T'ea, Serenity, Serena, and Nova are going to Tokyo for a national track tournament, without the boys. Kaily is now in possession of the Millenium Ring, since Bakura is dead, and thus, the only male on this Tokyo trip will be Bakahno, poor tomb robber. Kaily also has an assigned pel pal, Amane, and, anyone who's read the Yu-Gi-Oh manga knows that name means something, Serenity's pen pal, Ryou, well, that name's a little more familiar to fanfic readers. Those of you who know those names, KEEP YOUR MOUTHS SHUT!!!! I don't want it spoiled for the rest of the world. I don't know what I'm going to do, this is just something I'm pulling out of the dark. I do intend to have Maric and Isis appear, though, with Maric as an enemy. This should be fun. Well, I'll see you guys later in my sequel, Run To You. A little preview for you:

Dear KailY, sorry, I had to do that. I wasn't exactly up to this either, but, like you, I've got a teacher threatening to fail me. You're on the track team? Same here, I'm going to the nationals in June, what about you? Serenity sounds nice, just her name seems sweet. I hope I can get to know you better, we might actually have a lot in common. And, about the rich millionare thing, I din't even think you were THE Kaily Pegasus. I thought it was just a coincidence. Do you have any siblings? I had an older brother, but he died in a car crash when I was five. I just live with my mother. Well, I've gotta go. C ya.'
A girl with waiste length, slightly spikey white-ish hair and gentle brown eyes clicked the send button on her computer and got up,"I'd better get to work."
"WENCH!!! GET IN HERE!!!!"
Amane paled,'She's home already?'
A woman with matted white hair and harsh, blood shot blue eyes walked into the room,"THIS PLACE IS A MESS!!! AND WHERE IS MY BEER?!!! I TOLD YOU TO GET IT FOR ME before I GOT HOME!!!" She brough her hand, hard across Amane's face.
Oh, and before I forget again. It could take me awhile to get my sequel up. I'm starting to work on my webpage, where all of my art will be going. I'm sure as hell not the best artist on the planet, but, I'm working on it. I spent ten hours yesterday working on a picture of Yuga and Kaily. *sweatdrop* For some reason I'm having a LOT of trouble with her damn hair.
Kaily:HEY!!!!
If only I could get someone to do my art for me.
Joey:Yeah, you can't draw at all
Shut up or I just might turn you into a dog, AGAIN!!! Well, gotta run, my dad's takin' me to dinner to celebrate me finishing Shadow Guardian. My first completed fic! C ya next time.

Dear Amane,
I'm gonna say this now:I don't see the point in this pen pal program and, frankly, I could care less about it. The only reason I'm doing this is because my teacher's threatening to fail me if I don't. I don't intend to have fun with this and I DEFFINITELY am going to kill Serenity for being such an angel and delivering my assignment to me. Just because she's the top female track star in town she thinks she can run errands for everyone. Whatever, you're probably thinking I'm just saying this because I'm a snobby, rich, millionare. If you want to, think that, I don't care. I've gotta go kill my best friend and his little sister. Kail, out. P.S. You call me Kaily and I swear I'll kick your sorry butt to Pluto and back, understood?'

Subject:Hi
Dear Ryou,
My name is Serenity, but you already knew that, didn't you? : P Sorry, I'm just excited. I'm on the girls' track team at my school and we just won a place in the national championships! Anyway, I agree with my psycotic friend Kail, this pen pal program is wacked, but, it's still useful for meeting new people. I hope this won't turn into a mess like the last time my mother tried to get me into this. I ended up pen pal to a gay 40 sum year old woman. Well, I'm being called for dinner. Plz write back soon. Serenity.'
And with that Shadow Guardian is complete. I spent I don't remember how long fighting with myself over this ending. I couldn't really think of anything else. It's a sort of let down, I now. I just couldn't think of anything else. And yes, Bakura really is dead. As my cousin's put it, I'm a drama freak. A friend of mine asked about Kaily's extreamly long name. Here's a little breakdown of it, along with Yugi's:
Kaily=duh, her name
Yugorana=Yuga, aka Yugorana, is a part of her, so, Yugorana became her second name
Destiny=her original middle name
Valentine=her original last name
Pegasus=her adoptive last name
Mutou=the last name she was given after Mai left
Yugi's:
Yugi=name
Yu-Gi-Oh=same with Yugorana in Kaily's name, Yu-Gi-Oh, aka Yami, is a part of Yugi
Lance=the middle name I gave him, since I don't know his real one
Valentine=same as Kaily
Mutou=same as Kaily, again
Any questions I'll be glad to answer and, before anyone asks, SEFFRA, I do intend to make a sequel as soon as I finish some of my other fics.
Vega:Yeah, that'd be nice
Can it, demon, anyway, I can't believe I'm done! In the beginning I had no intention of Kaily even falling for Bakura! I didn't even plan on Serena and Nova appearing, or Seth for that matter. God, what's going through my head lately?
Joey:We probably don't want to know
As some of my close friends and family that also read this will probably notice, I've already set the stage for my sequel. Mai, Kaily, T'ea, Serenity, Serena, and Nova are going to Tokyo for a national track tournament, without the boys. Kaily is now in possession of the Millenium Ring, since Bakura is dead, and thus, the only male on this Tokyo trip will be Bakahno, poor tomb robber. Kaily also has an assigned pel pal, Amane, and, anyone who's read the Yu-Gi-Oh manga knows that name means something, Serenity's pen pal, Ryou, well, that name's a little more familiar to fanfic readers. Those of you who know those names, KEEP YOUR MOUTHS SHUT!!!! I don't want it spoiled for the rest of the world. I don't know what I'm going to do, this is just something I'm pulling out of the dark. I do intend to have Maric and Isis appear, though, with Maric as an enemy. This should be fun. Well, I'll see you guys later in my sequel, Run To You. A little preview for you:

Subject:I agree
Dear KailY, sorry, I had to do that. I wasn't exactly up to this either, but, like you, I've got a teacher threatening to fail me. You're on the track team? Same here, I'm going to the nationals in June, what about you? Serenity sounds nice, just her name seems sweet. I hope I can get to know you better, we might actually have a lot in common. And, about the rich millionare thing, I din't even think you were THE Kaily Pegasus. I thought it was just a coincidence. Do you have any siblings? I had an older brother, but he died in a car crash when I was five. I just live with my mother. Well, I've gotta go. C ya.'
A girl with waiste length, slightly spikey white-ish hair and gentle brown eyes clicked the send button on her computer and got up,"I'd better get to work."
"WENCH!!! GET IN HERE!!!!"
Amane paled,'She's home already?'
A woman with matted white hair and harsh, blood shot blue eyes walked into the room,"THIS PLACE IS A MESS!!! AND WHERE IS MY BEER?!!! I TOLD YOU TO GET IT FOR ME before I GOT HOME!!!" She brough her hand, hard across Amane's face.
Oh, and before I forget again. It could take me awhile to get my sequel up. I'm starting to work on my webpage, where all of my art will be going. I'm sure as hell not the best artist on the planet, but, I'm working on it. I spent ten hours yesterday working on a picture of Yuga and Kaily. *sweatdrop* For some reason I'm having a LOT of trouble with her damn hair.
Kaily:HEY!!!!
If only I could get someone to do my art for me.
Joey:Yeah, you can't draw at all
Shut up or I just might turn you into a dog, AGAIN!!! Well, gotta run, my dad's takin' me to dinner to celebrate me finishing Shadow Guardian. My first completed fic! C ya next time.
