"So little Yuugi wants to challenge me, what a laugh," Yami began to laugh but only a little of the crowd laughed with him, usually Yuugi was duelling in this area and they all knew that Yuugi was a good Duellist. Yami stopped laughing and looked around menacingly before his look settled on Yuugi, "Alright boy let's see what you've got," he sneered.
"If you insist," Yuugi replied getting his Duel Disk out of his bag, his Grandfather's shop stocked them so he was bale to get one even though he wasn't on Kaiba's database.
"Let the Duel begin," Jou cried out and the crowd roared, both Yuugi and Yami drew five cards and inspected their hands.
"Since I'm a good sport, I'll let you move first," Yami sneered at Yuugi.
"I know you don't like me Yami and I don't need your sportsman ship," Yuugi replied taking a card form his hand and laying it face down on the field, "I lay one card face down and end my turn."
"Alright, I play Koribo and one card face down," Yami replied, drawing the card for his turn.
Based on what I know of Yami's strategies I'll bet that card is multiply,' Yuugi thought, he scanned his hand; he found a card Jou had given him. "I play this is card," Yuugi said laying the green card on the field, "it wipes away all magic and trap cards." Yami's card was revealed and it was 'Giant Arm Shield' and not the multiply card.
Yuugi shrugged and continued with his turn, "Next I play the Mini Mage, with 500 attack points, that's more than enough to destroy you're Koribo." Yami smirked, but it was wiped off his face when Yuugi flipped over his face down card revealing another monster. "Now I sacrifice my two monsters to bring forth, Gaia the Fierce Night, now my Knight, attack his life points!"
Yuugi: 4000 Yami: 1600
"Damn it," Yami swore and drew a card, "I play Big Shield Guard Nymph, in defence mode and end my turn."
"Alright, then I destroy your guard with my Knight and play, Woodland Faerie," 700/950, "and attack your life points directly!"
Yuugi: 4000 Yami: 900
"Yeh, go Yuugi," Jou called to his friend who grinned at him.
"I'll admit, you're a good Duellist boy-" he was interrupted by Yuugi at this point.
"My name is Yuugi, so use it boy," Yuugi said, an angry look crossing his face as he glared at Yami who looked both stunned and outraged.
"Why you little," Yami made to lunge at Yuugi but Malik grabbed him form behind hooking his arm under Yami's shoulders.
He leaned over and whispered in Yami's ear, "Now calm down, no physical contact in a Duel."
Yami grunted, but calmed down and shook himself free of Malik, he drew a card and lay down, "I play nightmare Steel Cage, and it traps you for three whole turns and prevents your monsters from attacking. I end my turn."
Yuugi scowled, Yami had prevented him from attacking and he didn't have the right card to be able to use the flaw of the cage, he sighed, "I think I'll pass this turn."
"Alright," Yami observed his hand and then said, "I play, another Koribo, and I add to it, multiply, next, I'll sacrifice two of them to bring forth, the Black Magician, now attack his Knight with Black Magic attack!" Yuugi watched in amazement as his Knight was blown away. "That ends my turn," Yami replied.
Yuugi: 2300 Yami: 900
Yuugi drew a card, "I play Pot of Greed and now draw three new cards," he drew three cards and he grinned, just the cards he needed.
"What are you grinned for, just pass already," Yami called but Yuugi just kept grinning, this boy was unnerving him. First, he just seems like a pathetic runt, now he has friends at the best school in the district and he's beating him in a Duel!
"Watch out Yami, because I'm going to win this Duel," Yami hmphed, obviously not believing him, "First I attack the magic card, Book of Secret Arts to my Woodland Faerie giving it 500 extra attack points," 1200/950, "then I play Ectoplasma, and with it, I can attack your life points directly taking them down to Zero!"
Yuugi: 2300 Yami: 0
"I-I lost," Yami stuttered, he fell to his knees as the crowd cheered for Yuugi and Jou ran up to the small boy and hugged him.
Yuugi grinned but upon seeing Yami, he gently pushed Jou away and made his way over to Yami. By this time the crowd had dispersed and were back to playing all the other games available in the arcade. He reached his hand out to Yami, smiling.
"What do you want?" Yami asked his eyes focused on Yuugi's hand but the rest of his body didn't move, "Come to gloat have you?"
"I've never gloated in my life Yami and I'm not going to start now and we don't have to be enemies you know," Yuugi said still smiling, not in the least put off by Yami's remark.
Yami blinked and the gaze of his eyes slowly raised, his head moving with them until his eyes had locked with Yuugi's. His breath hitched in his throat and his tongue refused to move, he gulped heavily before reaching his hand to take Yuugi's. Yuugi grinned and hauled the taller, not to mention heavier, boy to his feet. Yami couldn't stop starring into Yuugi's eyes and this was unnerving the poor boy, "Um…Yami, is there something on my face?"
'…besides your beautiful eyes?' Yami contemplated, he shook his head and answered shakily, "N-no, I've got to…to go…somewhere, meet Bakura, that's it, I have to-to meet Bakura."
With that, he proceeded to sprint away from Yuugi his hand tingly form where Yuugi had touched it, "Gee, what's his problem?" Jou asked walking up behind Yuugi as Ryou and Malik followed.
---Yami---
Still dazed form the experience he had just gone through, he stumbled dazedly towards the club that he was sure currently held Mariku and Bakura. He cradled his hand as pins and needles flashed through it making it tingle and the nerves within excite. Yami clenched his grip around his hand as the vision of Yuugi's eyes flashed before his own, the small, round, perfect fact, the hair, so much like his own and the completely untainted innocent aura.
Suddenly the clouds in his head thinned slightly and he was able to spot Bakura and Mariku at the bar, Bakura flirting shamelessly with a waitress, he had his shirt off and had just slipped a tip down the middle of her very deep cleavage.
"Yami, we were wondering when you'd show up," Mariku said, flashing the tri-haired boy a grin before chuckling at Bakura who had just slapped the waitress son the ass as she walked away. Yami didn't answer; he was grinning stupidly and flopped down on a high stool beside Mariku ordering a shot of Vodka.
"You sure you should be drinking bro, you look as good as wasted," Mariku said pulling on the back of Bakura's shirt making him resume his seat. The guy was drunk and didn't deserve to wake up in a bed naked with an equally naked fifty year old man again.
"I'm not my dear friend, but I might as well be," Yami replied dazedly downing his fifth shot and Mariku raised at eyebrow at him.
"Oh, and why, pray tell, is that?" Bakura asked smirking, after Mariku's constant attempts to stop him drinking and ordering anything had made him somewhat sober, his ability to over come liquor was amazing.
"That meddling, too good for his own boy," Yami said as he downed shot after shot with no idea of stopping in his head at all.
"Hold on a second mate," Mariku said grasping Yami's wrist and lowering it to the bar preventing him from having any more liquor, "which boy?"
"Yuugi Mouto," Yami sighed wistfully, neither Bakura or Mariku new why he did this, they figured he was either head over heels or was just to drunk to know what he was doing. They decided on the second one, the idea of Yami going mad just over a small, unpopular runt was ludicrous, or at least they hoped it was. However, Bakura was considering the first one very carefully seeing as he himself fancied Ryou who was equally unpopular but taller, he grinned.
"No way, what are you on Yami? Speed? Ecstasy?" Mariku demanded, Bakura keeping silent for the moment.
"Yuugi, that's what I'm on," Yami said, eyes half-lidded; now the alcohol was beginning to take effect on Yami, but his brain was still clear enough to utter the truth, "that boy has me around his little finger." Mariku opened his mouth to question his fellow gang member further but before he could do so Yami passed out in front of him, partly form the alcohol, partly from the Yuugi overload, if there was such a thing.
Bakura stepped forward to drag Yami out the club followed by Mariku, neither could be bothered to catch him, he was going to wake up with a hangover anyway, a little extra headache wouldn't do him any harm.
