I open my eyes at some loud noice. Frickin' thing. There goes my 24 hours of sleep idea...
I turned to see what the noice was. Oh bloody hell. Yugi's alarm clock. Me and Weira had our own guest beds in Yugi's room, and Yugi HAD to have an alarm clock. Probably for school. I saw him slightly stir in his sleep, then roll onto his stomach and pound on the alarm clock, hitting the 'Off' button.
He drowsily got up, and rubbed his eyes, staring right at me. "Hey, Weevil, aren't you going to school?"
School! Great junebugs, I forgot about school! Well, not forgot about it, just forgot it was today. I quickly hopped outta bed and looked around, smacking myself on the forehead. How the hell do you go to school without a uniform?
I sighed and sat back down. "I don't have a uniform, everything's at my house."
"That's okay, you can wear onea my outfits."
"What about Weira?" I lowered my glance to her still body.
"I'll tell Tea to let her borrow onea her old outfits. It's no problem."
I kinda wanted to fall to my knees and begin praising him for all his help. But I don't wanna show my weaknesses. I mean, what if this is all a big trap? That as soon as I praise Yugi for helping, he starts laughing and my Dad walks in, carrying his usually bottle of Tequila. What if?
I know I'm paranoid, but I can't help wonder. Everyone else except for Rex and Weira have betrayed me, so why shouldn't he? I glanced at Yugi as he groggily walked over to the phone, clumsily dialing some numbers. "Tea? Yeah. Hi. I was wondering, would you mind bringing one of your uniforms from when you were younger over here? No? Okay. Good. Yeah, it is. Okay. Thanks. Okay. Bye."
He looked at me, his eyes beginning to show consciousness. "Tea's gonna bring the uniform over."
I nodded, staying silent. I didn't wanna say 'Thank you so much' or 'You're such a good person' because maybe he'd unleash his trap then. All I do is nod. And nod is what I will.
~
Yugi dropped me and Weira off at the Elementary and Middle School. Grades K-8. I feel so immature...Oh well. Atleast if anything happens, I'm in the same school as Weira.
She looked up me and squeezed my hand anxiously. I sighed as I looked around outside. Most people were in their cliques and would stare at us time to time. Annoying preppy bastards...
I turned my head and kindaof twitched at the sight of a gang of thugs, staring right back at me. Oh, excellent. Just what I need on the first day of the rest of my life. Bullies.
I quickly began to pull Weira away before one of them hopped up to me. What the hell? Hopped. I guess this is the contest for stupidity.
I instinctively tightened my grip on Weira's hand as I glared at them.
"Hey, look, it's the new dork and his little sista'. We don't need dorks ruinin' our school."
I heard the bell ring and wanted to snap. Damn them all, we're gonna be late for class. I spun on one hell, attempting to pass them, followed by being surrounded by them. I felt Weira hug my legs nervously. It's kinda hard to comfort someone when you're nervous, too.
"Lookit the little one, she's frightened!" I practically felt my blood start boiling inside me as I saw onea them tear her away from my legs. I instantly began a war, fussing to get her.
"Aww, does the dork need her big brother?"
I ehard her begin crying. That's when I really got pissed.
All I know is a swung at someone, heard a crack, and then began backing away from them. "HE BROKE MY GOD DAMNED NOSE!"
Crap. Crap. Hahaha, crap. I'm so...Very...Screwed.
"Lookie what I found." I saw something out of the corner of my eye and twitched. It was the glint...The glint of a blade.
The glint of a blade of a knife that the tallest one had picked out of his pocket. He stalked over to me, a devious smirk on his face. I instantly realized that they were holding me in place. HOLY SHIT!
I heard Weira begin to cry even louder, almost at a scream, and then it became muffled. Oh shit, oh shit, I'm gonna die.
"You really shouldn't play with pointy objects, dweeb."
Then I felt it. The piercing of the silver blade, right into my stomach. I felt the crimson leaking down my stomach. I felt him pull the knife out. And then the pain. I began howling in pain as they finally dropped me on the grass, leaving me there. They were all cheering, applauding their work.
Everything's getting dark...So...Very dark...
I could've sworn I heard that British boy saying, 'Oh my!' before I heard another battle begin...
And I could've sworn I heard two sets of footsteps advancing towards me slowly before everything turned...Black....
~
"Weevil!" I opened my eyes to see Yugi, Weira and Bakura standing beside my bed. I still felt the pain of the wound in my stomach and howled, arching my back.
Weira quickly hopped onto the bed and stayed on the far end, looking at me. "Hey Weevil, are you okay?"
I quickly checked her over and twitched, looking at her bandaged wrist. "What happened?!"
"When the guy dropped me when he was fighting Ryou, I landed on my wrist. The doctors said I sprained it."
"Does it hurt?"
"Not too bad. It only hurts if I touch it."
She quickly hopped off the bed and walked over to Ryou, hugging his leg. "Ryou saved your life! He was late for school and was walking by, and came and beat up the bullies!"
I could've sworn Ryou turned bright red. Aw, how flattering. He must be so proud of himself. I kinda just nodded to acknowledge a thanks.
"You're a very lucky boy, Weevil."
I turned my attention to Mr. Mutou, who sat in a chair across the room.
"The doctors said if the knife would've gone just a centimeter deeper, it would've ruptured your liver."
I blinked. Oh yeah, reaaaaal nice thing to say Mr. Mutou, especially to someone who just regained their state of consciousness.
"You should be thankful Ryou was there to get help."
I nodded. Oh god, my paranoia's starting to eat me from the inside-out...It feels like I'm gonna burst if I don't say 'Thanks so much' real soon. But I have to stay together. Stay cool.
Ryou nodded back to acknowledge the silent thanks, while Yugi just continued to stare at me. "I'm kinda curious whether I want you going back to that school, Weevil. I mean, I don't want you getting hurt again an-Hey!"
Creepy...His eyes just looked like they turned even more violet. "I know! Grandpa can home-school you!"
I felt liked someone just shot a spark plug at me. Home-schooling? Really? Sounds interesting, to say the least. "Really?!"
"Uh-huh! Right Grandpa?!"
Yugi's Grandpa seemed to sit in silent thought for a while. Was it time to go for the puppy eyes? I doubt it, but..."Pleeeeease, Mr. Mutou? It'd be a whole lot safer for Weira and I!"
STRIIIIKE! I saw him sigh in defeat and finally get up, walking over to me. "...Okay, Weevil." He quickly ruffled my hair and walked over to the door where one of the hospital attendants stood waiting for him.
He walked back over to me, smiling. This guy's starting to remind me of that guy that people hang on doors around Christmas time..."Okay Weevil. They said it'd be alright if you left now."
Phew. That's a relief. I saw Mr. Mutou guide everyone out of the room so I could get dressed. It isn't that sore, come to think of it.
Hopping out of the bed, I quickly put my green shirt with the big black spider on it and a pair of black shorts on, along with some white socks and a pair of green sneakers. No exactly everyone's ideal dressing style, but hey, I'm not like everyone.
I know my identity.
I'm Weevil Underwood, alia of Yugi and Ryou, best friend of Rex Raptor, brother of Weira, and Insect Duelist Extraordinaire.

Rika: Awww, isn't that ending just kawaii? ^-^ *Latches onto a Weevil plushie* Kawaii, kawaii, kawaii..........
I'm glad I got so many reviews. Not only have I changed point of views, I've added joy to the hearts of Weevil fans everywhere! So lets get to the reviews.
T Bond - Sorry I didn't tell you. Odd how I told everyone EXCEPT you....Oh well. And this kinda turned me into a Weevil fan myself. I'm inspired to turn this into a series...And by Rah, I just might!
I Glomp Bishounen - Here's your daily dose of Weevil Kawaii-ness...See? I DO have a heart! ^^
Weevil: *Whistles innocently and takes the Mallet of Doom* Thankies Kathy! ^^
Rika: Yesh, thanks! And in case anyone's wondering why Joey seems like such a jerk - It's in Weevil's point of view. To Weevil, Joey's a major jerk. Okay? I'm glad we've cleared that up.
Weevil'sWoman - It was mainly your review that inspired me to get my arse in gear and go. I've honestly gone to the find section to look up names with Weevil in it, and I think, when I last checked plain ol' Weevil, there was one, but with no Yu-Gi-Oh stories and nothing to mention about him at all. I think I know you from another Yu-Gi-Oh board, or it could just be a coincidence, but I'm known in other places as Rika Kaiba-Tsunami...Well, anyways, I did continue it, and yeah, I know. Yugi would help anyone out in their time of need. Even Seto Kaiba...
Rin562 - Cute, Angsty at times, Dramatic...See, this is what happens when people are mean to a character! You'll overlook a character if you just judge 'He/She's not hot, so blech' and you've really gotta understand why one person may be so cruel. Seto Kaiba, for instance. His foster father, Gozaburo, was a devil to him. Chained him to desks and forced him to study...Then jumped out a window and killed himself...Crazy man...But yeah, that and Seto's parents died when he was young, you've gotta take all that into perspective, you know?
...I've really gotta stop rambling. Well, anyways, please review!
Weevil: Yeah, pleeeease? First one to review chapter 4 gets a me Plushie! So review please! ^^
