Geno/Chaos whistled a happy tune as he walked down the streets. He ahd
just beaten some punk that had wanted his dagger, and now was half way to
getting the pieces he needed to get his money back.
Part of him was sad that he couldn't come out and tell them who he was. When he had seen Guy, all he wanted to do was run to him and give him a hug and tell him he was alive and well.
But he couldn't. If he had, there would have been a firestorm of people asking where he had been, what he would do now, and he would never be at peace. He would be forced back to his duties.and that couldn't happen.
It had been funny. When that gate had exploded, he was sure he was dead. But he wasn't, he just hurt like hell. He had to drag himself from the rumble of his former office, and with his last conscious thought, he pulled the dagger from his chest and opened a portal. He awoke in a hospital in Arizona, bandaged up and barely alive. He had learned from the doctors that he had been found by a trucker, and that he had been alsee for 4 days. He recovered in a week, and after 11 days since he had been in the worlds strongest magic blast, he walked out in the dessert sun.
Geno had wandered around for 5 days, not really thinking. He was out of it, the blast having knocked all sense out of his head. HE had finally got some sense to eat, and walked into a diner. And he found that..no one knew him. No one ran up to him asking for advice. He wasn't a billionaire or a CEO, he was a man. And that had made him feel so great. For the first time, he was nothing.
HE had won a truck in a Blackjack game, and decided to drive around. A week later, he ahd meet Michelle, a run away. For some reason, they bonded, and began to hang out. And after that incident in the bar, began to train. Finally, strapped for cash, they had traded the truck in for a van, and began their lives as Chaos and Galanodel, mob assasins.
Geno chuckled, remembering how they had gotten stares in town whe they walked and just hung out. It was weird.there was zero physical attraction. Michelle, Geno had reasoned because of her mage powers, wasn't effected by his aura that ad turned Tea into a harlet and his ex wife into a nypho half the time when they had been alone. No, Michelle and him had a different relationship. He had called them brother and sister, but she said he was wrong. "It's like you're my dad." She ahd said. And Geno was easily flattered, so he took on the role as parent, and protected her, and provided for her.
That is why he wanted that money so bad. When he got it, it was off to some little cabin in the Rockies Michelle had told him about, and he was going to get her it.
"HEY!"
Geno turned to see Mai Valentine running at him. He sighed, and rolled his eyes from beneth his mask. "What do you what little girl?"
"Little?" Mai smiled, and pushed her chest out. "These are little? My Mr. Chaos, you must be from San Francisco if you didn't notice my friends here."
Geno smiled beneth his mask. "You want to play Mai, oh, I can play" He first thanked his stars that Michelle had managed to put a spell in his suit to block his aura, and that he wouldn't need to worry about Mai coming on to him.
"Though.."
"You sure did a good job on yourself Miss Valentine." Geno said, doing his best impression of Hannibal Lecter
"What?"
"You try to hide your true self with your fancy clothes and makeup, using your looks to make sure people don't see the real you. But I see the truth. You know your nothing but a scared, sad little girl."
Mai looked at him, her lip trembling. "Your..your wrong."
"We both know the truth, your nothing but one shadow in the corner from wetting your footie pajamas and running to mama and dada and ask if you can sleep with them tonight,"
Mai tried to calm herself. "Let's..let's duel."
Geno cleared his throat and shrugged, his voice returning to normal. "Alright." He activated his duel disk. His was different then everyone elses. His started as a single, blade-like piece, that split in half, allowing him separate spots for magic and monsters. He had designed it himself, to look like a sword. And besides, he liked the way it set up his field. He touched a button, and the machine split in two, firing off the top two pointed ridges that would project his monsters' images. "I will have the Marauding Captain as my Avatar."
Mai lookd at him and frowned. "So it's true, you do have Geno Road's deck."
Geno smiled. He thought it was so funny that everyone refered to his own deck and dagger as Geno's items. He looked Mia as she activated her common duel disk.
"I select Amazonesse Paladin as my Avatar."
Geno looked at her and nodded. "How many pieces do you have?"
"3"
"Same here. So, chances are that one of us is moving on." He smiled, though he knew she couldn't see it. "You may start."
