Yugi and Kiki left the lunchroom shortly after Joey. The first bell rang, so they went to room 304, the science room. They took their seats, second bell. Still no Joey.

"Good after noon class!" sang the teacher. "Today, you will be presenting your projects." Her voice still sounded a little sing-songish for Kiki's taste. The classroom's door burst open, and Joey ran inside.

"Sorry I'm late Ms. Needham! I was-"

"Ah, Mr. Wheeler! How good of you to join us. And for volunteering! Come up here and give your presentation, please."

Joey walked up to the table and put something behind it. Joey was holding something under the table. "My topic is mold, and today I brought in a special professor, who specializes on my subject." Joey pulled up what he'd been hiding from the class.

The dirtiest sock in existence rested grossly on Joey's hand. Everyone paying attention to his presentation let out a long and somewhat over dramatic, "Ewwwwww!"

Yugi and Kiki simply looked at each other.

'The universe' must start in Joey's locker. Said the note she passed to Yugi. He tried not to laugh and continue watching the presentation.

"So, Dr. Sock, can you tell us what a mold is?" Joey asked the greenish-yellow thing. Joey's hand gave life to the seemingly once white sock.
"Yes. A mold, class, is an organism that lives in dark, dank, and really stinky places." Said the sock thing.

"Cool, and would you tell the class what a few molds are?" Joey asked the sock.

"Of course, some basic molds are moss, cheese, yogurt, and you." Dr. Sock announced promptly.

"Yes and now would-" Joey paused and looked at the sock. "Wha'd you say?"

"I said you are a mold." Dr. Sock said.

"Why ya little!" Joey leaped at his hand and attacked the sock viciously. The struggle lasted for a good five minutes before Dr. Sock was thrown across the room and four people jumped out of its way.

Joey stood up as if nothing had even happened and looked rather pleased. "That is all." He said grabbing his bag and going to his desk.

After class Yugi and Kiki waited for Joey to come out of the classroom. He looked really disappointed. "What's wrong Joey?"

"I failed." He said kicking his foot.

"You got an F?" Kiki asked in amazement. "But your performance was great. At least D worthy."

"I thought so too!" Joey said. "Any ways I got worse than a F. I gotta G."

Yugi and Kiki looked at each other again. A G? Was that even possible?

"Joey," Kiki said slowly. "Could I see your paper?"

"I guess." He said handing over the essay he wrote in five minutes.

"Joey." Kiki smiled, "This is a C-. Not a G!"

"Ohhhhhhhhhh!" Joey sighed, "So that's what those look like!"

Joey, Yugi, and Kiki walked down the hallways. "So," Yugi said, "what are you guys doin' tonight?"

"I gotta hot date with a pretty mama-seta!" Joey said dancing.

"You're taking your sister out for ice cream, aren't you?" Kiki said jokingly.

"No!" Joey said hotly. "I actually have a date this time!"

"Good for you Joey." Yugi said as they reached the card shop. "Where you gonna take her?"

"Somewhere special!" Joey's eyes misted, Kiki couldn't resist.

"MacDonald's!?" she tried not to laugh but it was hard. Joey said he didn't have to take anymore of this. Kiki laughed and Joey left.

"Hey Gramps!" Yugi said as he and Kiki walked in.

"Grandpa!" Kiki said hugging the old man. "Good to see you!"

"Kiki, you look fit, how are your step sisters?" He set down his broom to return the hug.

"Fine I guess. Is it all right if I call a cab? I need a ride to my shop."

"Of course it is! And in the mean time Yugi will keep your company." Kiki called the cab company, then sat outside with Yugi.

"So Yugi," Kiki said quietly. "Anything wrong?" Yugi looked up at her.

"No of course not. Why'd you sat that?" Kiki wasn't fooled. She always knew when her cousin needed her.

"Why do you keep to yourself like this, it's not healthy." She sighed and placed a hand around his shoulder. "What's bothering you?"

"Well." Yugi thought carefully about how he could phrase this. "I'm not sure yet. But I'll," Yugi lost his train of thought.

"It's alright Yugi, you don't have to tell me yet." Kiki got up. "My cab is here anyways."

"Bye Kiki, I'll see you tomorrow." Kiki waved as she got in the car, and went to work.

"I'm here!" Kiki announced like she always did. No answer. She walked to the counter and took her place at the cashiers box. Hours went by without a phone call or customer.

Ring, ring.

"Hello, Summer Car Service, Kiki speaking, how may I help you?"

"Yes Kiki. This is Winston, Mr. Kaiba's Butler."

"Yes from last night?" Kiki snapped to attention.

"Mr. Kaiba requires what is left of his Limo, would you bring it to his place of work?"

"I can."

"Excellent," Winston sang. "Do you need directions?"

"Yes Sir."
