I'VE ALWAYS LOVED PUPPIES
A/N: WOW PEOPLE! THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD REVIEWS! I feel so wanted with my Seto/Joey fic. I am listening to the radio, so if there's some lyrics placed in my fic, don't sue! Now Audoslave's on... but I doubt you care. More of my fic to come... after messages from our disclaimer monster!
"Yes, I am the great Red-Eyes Black Dragon and I am here to say Lisa, Comic Relief, does NOT own Yu-Gi-Oh! She only owns the idea of this story."
"Okay, where is the mutt gonna take me today?" Seto joked.
"Shutup, Kaiba," the blonde teen replied.
"I am just asking where you're gonna take me today," Seto defended.
"You addressed me by mutt, if you haven't noticed," stated Joey.
"Incorrect. I didn't address you."
"Very smart."
"Isn't it?"
This isn't cool. He's up my ass and he's teasing me. I swear... once more and he's in for it.
"What's on the agenda for today?" Kaiba asked.
"I'm going ta go to the arcade. I can only spend a half-hour here, though. I need to go home... soon! Oh, and to put that arcade thing within your comprehension; and to explain what those are; I'm going to a building in which specializes in virtual computer entertainment for those of any age," answered Joey.
"Yes, I know what an arcade is. I may be unfamiliar to this scene, but I am no foreigner."
"I cannot have any fun in the home, so I seak for fun outside of the home. This is what I do. Observe." Joey walked into an arcade. It was a small place with many video games, pinball machines, and prizes seemingly shoved in. There was only thirty-seven gamers packed inside, which was great for a Saturday afternoon. Four or five or maybe even six people stood in line for each game, awaiting for their turn to shine; or for those new to the arcade; awaiting for their turn button-mash and cheat using cheat codes they've found on the Internet.
One game was deserted-- Duel Monsters Pinball. Joey walked up to it and dug out fifty-cents and placed it in the slot next to the bright orange button that said "Insert 50ยข". The machine was slightly dusty and dirty for about a week's worth of neglect.
"Puppy's out of the crowd, huh?" Seto teased.
"No. I used to be in the crowd before I started getting very good at this game. After everybody realized that they would never beat my score, they said bye bye to the game. I still like it, though. Wanna duel?"
"This is not an appropriate place for a proper duel."
"No, no, no. Duel as in the pinball version of the card game," Joey explained, trying to give the guy a chance more than he should have had.
"I don't see why, but I guess I will," Seto accepted.
"I'll go first. Watch how it's done," Joey said, with a competitive smirk appearing on his face. Joey released the ball, and it shot over to the middle of the pinball game where there were duel monster figures. It bounced off of a Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon two times, racking up Joey's first
seven thousand points. Then it slid down into a Black Skull Dragon and bounced off of it six times, and then the ball was shot into a point multiplyer, which in this case takes the point value of a Black Skull Dragon which was 4,567 points a piece, then found it's total score for each time which would be 27402, and then multiplied that final score by how many times you've hit the previous monster. In Joey's case, 27402 needed to be multiplied by 6 to get 164412 points in about one shot. Joey's doing pretty good and he hasn't even begun to play. His total score was 171412 already. The ball was about to fall into the center but was flinged up at the last minute. That caused the ball to sail into a Dark Magician once, then it was immediately passed to a Summoned Skull, in which the ball bounced off of it a record breaking 11 times! One Dark Magician is 2952 points to bring his score up to 174364. But, the Summoned Skulls counted for 2875 points apiece for eleven bounces! That adds 31625 to Joey's score, which brings his score to 2050989. He passed up the rest of his turn, and called it quits and let the ball fall down into the center.
"Didn't wanna go too hard on you," claimed Joey. "Your turn."
Kaiba looked as if he was not going to be defeated by the one he insulted all the time for just being hard headed. "Hmph, piece of cake." He jammed 50 cents into the slot and began his game. A Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon was hit three times for him to rake up a start at 10500 points. The ball then sailed for a Magician of Faith and hit it seven times. Each of those were 749 points apiece to raise Seto's score to 67494. The ball then plummeted toward the center, and Seto could not block it. Joey beat Seto... horribly.
Seto could only scream obceneties toward himself for losing to a 'mutt' or a 'puppy' or both! Joey wasn't really worried that he won. All Joey worried about was getting home! His father would beat him if he came home late again! The big digital clock in the arcade read 6:23:13. Deadline in seven minutes. I'm never gonna make it back to the house! Joey thought.
"I've gotta run, Kaiba," Joey nervously informed Seto.
"Why? I demand a rematch!"
"It's... uhhh..." Joey wasn't going to reveal anything about his pops abusing him for being home late, so he said, "It's important! Yeah, it's important." With that said, Joey stormed out of the arcade, pushing through many of those in line for games, and even punching them away if neccesary for his path to be cleared.
"Wait!" Seto stormed out after Joey, only just to regain the Kaiba pride in a rematch at the pinball game. He carefully ran the path that was already mapped out by Joey. "Hold up, ya puppy!" Seto called after him.
RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN JOSEPH WHEELER, RUN! Joey encouraged himself.
Kaiba was trailing Joey by about three yards. Joey then stopped, and Kaiba stopped as he stopped.
"Hey, why the rush... ohhh..." Seto said.
Pops Wheeler was waiting for Joey's return outside of the house. Broken vodka, beer, kahluah, and rum bottles were broken on the ground. Some miniature pieces laid on concrete while others stay concealed in grass. Seto looked at the horrible sight before him-- a drunk parent looking very enraged. Tough luck puppy... were Seto's thoughts.
