"Thanks for the ride, Seto." Kyara said when they pulled up in front of her house.
Kaiba nodded and drove off. With a sigh, Kyara walked slowly into her house. She sighed as she arrived in her room. Plunking herself down onto the bed, she stared out the window. The rain had stopped.

"So Joey, how's that remote-controlled pizza cutter of yours coming along?" Kyara inquired as she strode into the classroom early the next morning.
With a grimace, Joey explained. "Terrible! The blasted thing nearly KILLED me yesterday night when Tristan and I were testing it out!"
Kyara stifled a giggle. "Can't wait to see it when this project's due."
Behind him, Tristan moaned weakly. "It sounded like such a good idea when we started, now I'm not so sure."
The classroom door opened and this time Yugi entered. "Good morning!" he chirruped.
With a sigh, Kyara seated herself. "So how's your project coming along, Yugi?"
The black, yellow, and maroon (?)-haired boy shrugged. "We still haven't been albe to come up with anything!"
"Well, you still got a week and a half left, you'll think of something."
"I sure hope so."
Joey straigtened in his seat. "What about you, Kyara? What are you and the great Seto Kaiba doing?"
"As a matter of fact, we're making a Duel Monster Card Translator."
At her response, Joey slammed his head back onto the desk. "Ugh! I shoulda picked Kaiba for a partner! Then I probably could've just sat back and watched him do all the work."
"Not exactly, Joey." Kyara tapped her fingernails absentmindedly against her books. "He's not doing all the work."

After school, Kyara strode out of the school, Te'a, Joey, Tristan, and Yugi by her side. Te'a groaned. "It's not fair! Why does Takahashi have to give us some much homework?!?!"
Beside her, Yugi stifled a giggle. "It's not THAt bad, Te'a."
The sound of footsteps was heard behind the trio. Seto Kaiba appeared at Kyara's left. "You coming over to work on that project?" he asked.
She nodded and waved goodbye to her friends as she followed him to his car. Joey crossed his arms and nodded his head. "That girl gets all the lucky breaks. We NORMAL people have to take the bus."
Te'a shook her head in exasperation. "Joey, Joey..."
"What?"
