The Collection
Me: I am finally updating! Isn't it wonderful?
Jay: Sure...
Me: Anyway, this will be chapter two... as you probably already guessed...
Jay: That much is obvious. Come on, how dumb do you think the audience is? *Muttering* Probably smarter than you...
Me: *whacks Jay in the head with a frying pan*
Jay: @_@
Me: *dusts hands off* Now where was I... Oh yeah, the disclaimer...
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh. So sue me. Actually don't sue me because I need my money to buy Christmas presents for people. I do own Sinea, so you can't use her. I WILL sue.
Jay: *wakes up with a huge lump on the back of his head* Don't count on it...
Me: -_-# Grrrr... *whacks him with a shovel*
Jay: @_@
Me: Aaaaaaaany way... on with the fic!
Author's Note: For those of you who feel the need to diss Mary-Sue stories, do not read any further. This fic is NOT for you. If you leave a nasty review concerning your hate and loathing of Mary-Sues, you WILL be dissed in the upcoming chapter. I welcome constructive criticism, but if you try to pass a M-S flame off as a constructive criticism, expect your name on the diss list. You have been warned.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
After school was out, Sinea set off for home, thinking about a certain pair of blue eyes.
'Hmm. That kid is hard to get through to. It's like he's got a brick wall around himself. Max was right. He's cold and hard and dark and distant... but why do I feel like I know him? Strange...'
A sudden shout broke through her thoughts.
"Hey, Sinea!"
The new girl turned around to see Yugi and his friends walking toward her.
"Hi!" Sinea yelled in response. She stopped for a moment to let the others catch up. As they approached, she distinctly heard Joey say, "What's so great about her? All she's good for is apademic crap. It's not like she has any real talent..."
Sinea overpowered the urge to kick Joey where it hurts. She flashed a smile at Yugi, Tea, and Tristan, but gave Joey a nasty smirk. (Ya know, those preppy, nasty 'I'm so much better than you so I'm gonna walk all over you' smirks. *shudders* I hate those.) Joey returned the expression. Sinea was beginning to dislike Joey. As in, dislike with a passion dislike.
"What's up Sinea?"
The question brought Sinea back out of her thoughts.
"What? Oh, sorry, nothing much," She said, turning to the shortest of the group. "How about you?"
"Nothing really," Answered Yugi. "So, how was your first day of school?"
"Long," Replied Sinea, laughing a bit. "Never really expected it to be like this." She noticed Yugi's puzzled expression. "Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you," She laughed. "I was home schooled for most of my life. This is my first time in a public school."
Yugi looked momentarily surprised.
"Well, we're eager to help you out." Said Tea. "You remember me, right?" She added.
"If you mean since this morning, then yes, I do," Sinea assured her. Tea giggled. "I remember all of you."
Joey looked up, slightly confused.
"Even Joey?" Asked Tristan, jerking his thumb in his best friend's direction.
Sinea's smirk was back in place. She gave Joey a once over, as she had done with Seto earlier that day. "Oh, he's so cute, what do you feed him?" She asked scathingly.
Yugi winced, Tristan did that "oooooooooh" thing, and Tea shook her head. Joey looked ready to blow. (Mount Fuji!)
Sinea turned to Yugi.
"I gotta go," She said. "Nice talking to ya!" She turned to go, but was stopped by a hand gripping her shoulder.
"Let go," She said in a deathly quiet voice.
"No." Was Joey's response.
Sinea started to get mad.
"I said let go Wheeler!" She demanded.
Again the response was "No!"
Sinea spun around, causing Joey to remove his hand.
"What part of 'let go' do you not understand?" She yelled.
Joey stood his ground.
"Listen Layaru," He spat. "You need to adopt some manners."
"I don't need to adopt anything Wheeler," She retorted.
"Hell yeah you do!" Joey shouted. "I dunno where you got your people skills, but they suck! 'S far as I can tell, you're a stuck-up, smart-ass, manner-less wench!"
"You think you're any better?" Sinea countered. "If you ask me, you need a serious brushing up on your vocabulary."
"Well, I didn't ask you!" Said Joey. "Jeez, didn't your parents ever teach you how to be nice?"
That struck a sore spot. Sinea's eyes narrowed.
"Now you've done it Joey." Muttered Tristan.
"Shut it Trist." Hissed Joey.
Sinea found her thread again.
"You can't even be nice to your friends." She said.
Joey blanched. 'Damn." He thought.
Sinea kept going.
"At least I have the decency to be nice to the people I like. And in case you haven't guessed, I don't like you."
Joey was having trouble with a comeback.
"No comment?" Taunted Sinea. "So sad... Well, I need to get going." She again turned to leave, but this time stopped of her own accord.
"Hey, Yugi, before I forget, I wanted to ask you, are there any good gaming shops in town?" She asked.
Yugi nodded.
"Yeah, as a matter of fact, my grandpa owns one." Said Yugi. "It's right down the street. We live over the shop. Wanna come see?"
Sinea nodded, smiling.
"Sure," She said. "Coolness."
Yugi grinned.
"Alright then!"
The short boy let the way up the street, Sinea beside him and the others close behind. Joey amused himself by making faces at the back of Sinea's head, until Tea told him to stop. Sinea looked back over her shoulder.
"What's he doing, sticking his tongue out at me?" She asked. "Tell him not to, because he looks like a little puppy when he does."
"Keep walkin' Layaru..." Joey snarled through gritted teeth.
Tea frowned.
"Sinea, why do you have to pick on Joey?" She asked. "He gets enough insults from Kaiba."
"Really now?" Asked Sinea.
At that moment however, they arrived at the Kame Shop. Yugi looked up at it with pride.
"Well, here we are," He said. "Come on in, I'll show you around."
