Whee! Here we go again! : P...I'm scaring myself now.
disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-oh! or Teen Titans.
"Whoa, sorry. I didn't see you." I say. He looks up and smiles, still rubbing his head.
"It's okay, I wasn't paying any attention to where I was going." he tilts his head to one side. "Are you new to Domino?"
I nod. "How did you know?" I ask suspisiously.
He shakes his head. "I just guessed. Anyway, my name's Yugi. What's yours?" he asks me.
I smile and say, "Koriande'r, but you can call me Starfire. I just moved here from America. I have no idea where to go or what to do." I giggle. "And you probably think I'm stupid now."
He smiles. "No way. I don't judge people like that. I was new here once, you know." he grabs my hand. "C'mon, Starfire. I want you to meet somebody."
I'm being dragged along by a boy half my size. I giggle again. We must look weird. "Stop, Yugi. I have a better way." he halts and turns around. Grinning, I grab him by the arm and take off flying.
"Whoa, you can fly? Are you a superhero that came out of a comic book I read when I was ten?" he asks me with a serious expression.
"Oh, sure I am. No, I used to be a superhero back in America, though. You might wanna watch it when I'm angry." I say and we both laugh.
Yugi directs me to a large building with a staircase. As I approach it, I can see figures waving. I bet they wonder why I'm flying overhead. You don't see too many of me, and if you aren't used to me, it can be quite shocking.
"Hey, guys!" Yugi calls as we touch the ground. A girl with big blue eyes and brown hair runs over to us, two boys following her.
"Hi, Yugi. Who's your new friend?" she asks, glancing at me. She's smiling.
"This is Starfire, guys. She just moved here from America. And as for the flying, she told me she's origanally from a planet called Tameran. Tameranian babies are born with certain powers, flying being one of them." he says and the girl nods while the boys behind her stare at me.
I'm beginning to feel uncomfortable with the two staring at me, so I ask what their names are.
"Oh, that's just Joey and Tristan," the brunette says, "and I'm Tea. Don't worry about them, they do this often." I figure she means staring at women is a hobby of theirs.
I nod and smile. "Nice to meet you." I say gesturing toward the three. The boy named Tristan snaps out of his trance and elbows Joey who then wakes up too.
"Uh, yeah. Nice ta meet ya too." he says. I smile.
Joey begins to drool and I raise a brow.
"Umm..." I glance at Tea, signaling that I am uncomfortable. Tea gets the sign, and throws a murderous look towards Joey, who immedeatly stops. I figure she doesn't like it when women are treated like this.
Tristan is looking at me now.
"What?" I blurt out suddenly, louder than I expected. Everyone stares at me.
"Oops...sorry. I just don't understand why guys look at me like that. No offence but sometimes I just don't understand men."
I seriously hate it when guys are drooling over me. I really do get why they stare at me, but I didn't want to make anyone feel guilty.
Tea chuckles. "Starfire, you should like that. Most girls do. It means they've taken an intrest in you because they think you're hot." Tea's face becomes serious.
"But I guess you're like me. I don't personally appriciate it when a boy is drooling about me." She then glares at Tristan who stops staring at me and starts to whistle.
The conversation becomes lively again. We're now talking about my life. Everyone is sorry to hear that my parents died, but glad to hear I was taken into foster care.
"Well at least you didn't have to spend a lot of time in an orphanage," says Tristan, "your step mother adopted you right away."
I half smile. "Actually, it's only because I come from royalty. Princesses go fast. Everyone thinks that if they adopt a royal child, they'll get some of the power or profit when we enherit the throne. While I'm not surprised that I got adopted, I know my mother does love me."
Smiling, I know my explaination is long-winded. I have a tendency to do that. I wonder if everyone in my family was like this.
Yugi nods. "Yeah, I guess you're right." he says. "What was it like when you found out you had been adopted?"
"Oh, I knew from the day I taken to my new home. Tameranians are told, anyway, that they're adopted at an early age. Just so they don't flip out when they're older." I reply.
"Interesting," Joey says, but I can tell he's not really paying attention to what I'm saying. He's just looking at me with an odd expression on his face.
I smile and laugh. "Yeah, it is interesting. Anyway, I've gotta go soon. I have some unpacking to do." Fun, fun, fun. I think.
Tea rolls her eyes. "Good luck with that. I just hate to unpack things. But if you need any help I--"
"No, that's okay." I say. I don't want people thinking that I can't handle a little unloading. It's not like I have that much stuff anyway."
"If you're sure." Tea says. She's smiling, and I can tell that she's one of the few people in life that would actually care about someone they've only known for less than an hour.
I nod and turn to leave. I stop short. Joey is right in front of me. How he did that, I don't think I'll ever know. I've never seen someone move so fast.
He looks nervous. "Uhh...Star? Are ya sure ya don need any help?" he asks. "cause I can help."
I flash a smile. "No thanks. I can handle it. After all, nothing's too heavy for me. I have super strength."
Yugi smiles and asks me if I'd like to come to his grandfather's game shop later.
"Okay, maybe later. Right now I must get to unpacking." I say.
Tea nods and I smile. I'm about to walk away when Yugi grabs me and pulls me back.
"Huh?" I ask confused. He looks at me and gestures to his left.
Standing in front of the two of us are two boys. They look pretty much alike, both with long, white-ish hair. One looks about fifteen, while the other is a bit more mature-looking.
Yugi blinks and whispers, "Umm...Ryou's really nice, but you might want to stay away from the other one." he points at the one who looks older.
I shake my finger at him, but I smile. "It's impolite to point at other people," I remind him.
Yugi grins and tells me to be quiet. The two guys are coming closer to us.
The shorter one runs over and says, in as preppy as a guy's voice can sound, "Hi, guys!"
Yugi blinks and Joey rolls his eyes. I can hear Tristan mutter an, "Oh no, not the peanut gallery." I sweatdrop and put on a tight smile.
Yugi smiles at him and says, "Hey, Ryou." Ryou looks over at me.
"Hi," he says, still preppy, "I don't believe we've met. I'm Ryou Bakura and this--" he jabs the taller one, who has come over by now, in the stomach.
He flinches, and shoots Ryou a murderous glance. "I'm Yami Bakura." he says. "Happy?" he utters through clenched teeth, looking back at Ryou.
"Ahunh!" Ryou says, skipping about. It looks to me like he's way more preppy than Yami Bakura.
Bakura sighs. I smile and tell them I'm Starfire.
"It's nice to meet you, Yami Bakura and Ryou Bakura. Are you guys related?" I ask.
Ryou shakes his head. "Noo..he's my yami. I'm a hikari. In other words, he's my dark, I'm his light. See, Yami Bakura's actually pretty old."
"Oh," I nod, "and how old would that be?" I ask.
"Let's see...um, over 3,000 years old? Yeah, that's it." Ryou says with a serious expression.
I giggle. "Are you absolutly positive?" Ryou nods.
"Yeah, unless he's 4,000...oh, I don't give a care. He's really old, is all."
Now, I begin to take him seriously. "Wow," I've met con artist before, but I guess he's not one.
Bakura is looking at me. As soon as I turn he shifts his gaze to the sky.
"Well, I've got to go," I tell them. "it was nice meeting you all." I turn to leave.
well.....there ya go! another day another dollar! okay, another day another dollar wasted. I wasted a dollar on a stupid pom-pom for a high school fund-raiser. Wahoo. Lol,
