Ch 1: Someday
"How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
Don't think its too late
Nothin's wrong just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
Someday, somehow gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
Well I hoped that since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Nothin's wrong just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
Someday, somehow gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Nothin's wrong just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
Someday, somehow gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
I know you're wondering when."
"You have a very pretty voice."
Dasha inhaled sharply, and quickly whirled around, "Yami! You scared me," she spoke with a soft Russian accent.
"Clearly," the ancient spirit smiled fondly at the girl.
Dasha rolled her rose colored eyes at him, switching the radio off, "Where's mini you?"
Yami raised an eyebrow, "If you're referring to Yugi, he's upstairs getting ready for school."
Dasha smirked, "Can't say I missed that."
"Dasha you don't look old enough to have completed school," the spirit teased.
"I know," she grinned, "but where I grew up," her grin slowly faded, "school took time away from more important things so I was encouraged to complete it quickly."
Yami nodded, not wanting to press the subject of Dasha's past, knowing it would only make her uncomfortable. Dasha tucked her light blue hair behind her ears, and quickly walked over to the door of the game shop, flipping the sign from closed to open.
"I'm going to be late!" Yugi suddenly tumbled down the stairs, pulling on his shoes when he jumped up at the bottom.
Both Yami and Dasha grinned at his entrance, "Nothing new there."
Yugi stuck his tongue out at the pair, "Bye Dash, bye Yami," he grabbed his backpack, coat, waved and quickly disappeared out the door and down the sidewalk.
"Game Shop, Dasha speaking," Dasha grabbed the cordless phone after two rings, jumping up to sit on the counter as she spoke, "Hey! How's the conference going?"
"Is it grandpa?" Yami asked.
Dasha nodded to him before continuing to speak, "I'm glad to hear that. No, you just missed him. Oh..Alright, I'll let everyone know. Goodbye now!"
"Anything wrong?"
"No, but there's a storm on the conference, grandpa's stuck in America for a couple more days. He said he'll call tonight with more details."
"Okay, well, maybe we should get out some new magic and trap cards. We're running low on the shelves."
"Yeah," Dasha nodded, "but first," she said grabbing the remote for the tiny television behind the counter, "let's see how the Championships going...Oh my god......" she spoke a moment later as the color slowly drained from her already pale face, "How the hell did we wind up like this?"

"Kai."
"Hmm.What's wrong Tala?" Kai rolled over in his bed at The Abbey, turning to face the red head.
"Do you-..Do you think Dasha was watching?"
"We can only hope she wasn't."
"You don't believe that though," blue eyes studied him.
"No, I don't."
"Tell me did the right thing."
"Tala, it may not feel like we did the right thing, but it was our only option," Kai eyes sparkled with regret.
"I wonder where Mr. Dickinson hid her."
"It's probably better we don't know...As long as it isn't here."
"Are things ever going to be alright?"
"Someday."
"Someday," Tala repeated wistfully.
"Someday," Kai said firmly, ".. Somehow... We're going make it all right......but not right now."
"Do you think she's happy?"
"Would you be?"
"God, how the hell did we wind up like this?"

That's all for this chapter. This is not a song fic, but this chapter did have a lot to do with the song Someday by Nickelback. I love that song! I know this aren't really clear yet, but any confusion you might have should be cleared up soon. Your always welcome to voice questions in reviews (hint hint)
Until my next update
