Daricio: Hello everyone!
Sorry it's taken me so long to update any and all of my stories. (three months since this updated...) ^_^U For one, I've been working hard on my contest entry for HCG's contest. For another, Lately I've been getting writer's block.
It's not the kind where I don't have any ideas for my stories, I've been getting plenty of those, it's just that it's simply hard for me to just sit down and write! I needed some motivation...
I started writing today, cause I got to watch Yu-Gi-Oh new eppie today! ^_^ They've been cutting back on how many new eppies they let us see, showing us reruns all the time, and now we got a new one! Talk about motivation...
Course, I've missed two whole eppies lately, the Mai/Movie star guy one, and the middle of the Yugi/Bakrua duel in the finals, but that's ok.. I think... The Mai/movie star guy one was more of a filler eppie anyways, and the Bakura/Yugi one, I think I can figure out...
Who all saw O-word's evil dubbie flashback??? Yeesh, I haven't even ever seen the real Japanese version before and I already like it better than the dub version! The voices are horrid! *shudder* And they cut out the "Initiation".... Ritual.. thing.. -_- We should all join together as Yu-Gi- Oh.. uh.. people.. and storm 4kids headquarters, demanding that they quit with the cutting! Muahahahahahahahahahahaha..... ^_^U
But anywhos, enough about me, more about this story!
Today is the celebration of the posting of this ficcie's 30th chapter! ^_^ Yayz! For the record, it is October the 3rd, 2003. It's a Friday. And I have 148 reviews on this ficcie. ^_^ Thankies to all you you for making this possible!
Actually, I would like to personally thank BakaNeko-chan for setting me straight. (actually, I can't personally think her because this is the internet, but you all know what I mean anyway, right?) She actually reviewed on Millennium Magic, but she let me know how stupid I've been being. I've been sitting here complaining about not getting any reviews and being upset about that, and she was kind enough to remind me... that I've got over 50 reviews on Millennium Magic, and even more for Where's Yugi!
^_^U
Sorry, everyone, for being such a jerk... I will start writing my stories again. ^_^ (Well, I'll have to think reeeeeally hard about writing on Ring Logic.. sure, it's funny enough, but... ah, whatever..)
Also, because I KNOW that I will be unable to update again before this date next month, (^_^U) I'm going to celebrate it that chappie! The publish date on this story is 11/19/02, meaning that next month, I'll have been working on my story for a year! ^_^ We should have a birthday party for the ficcie.
Malik: ....Maybe next chappie.
Daricio: ^_^ Okies!
Oh, and also, I have to tell you all something just really quickly... I have a point sometime during the finals that I have picked to shift my storyline completely away from the show's storyline. I also have a point picked out that I'm actually going to END the story...
Everyone: *in shocked silence*
Daricio: *quickly* I don't think I'll get to the end of this too fast, though, don't worry... I can't summerize ANYTHING worth beans, and so even if I tried to just run through everything that happens next really fast, I'd need to have at least five or six more chapters... ^_^U So, although it feels strange to me to know where I'm stopping, it's also sort of a relief to know that I don't have one of those dern annoying insanity stories that never ends...
Anyways, now it's time for review responses!
Malik: Have you ever noticed that when you start talking, I get left out of everything?
Daricio: ... and?
Malik: -_- Never mind, just do your silly story...
Daricio: ^_^ Ok!

~Reveiw Responses~
~Bakurakrazie: -_- No teasing me about my typos. ^_^UU It's good to see you're having fun with abbribiations, though! *typos "abbriviations"* -_-U Anyways, yes I'll continue writing my stories again, and here's the next chapter of "Where's Yugi?" to prove it! ^_^
~Ethelflaed: Wow, I think I've actually spelled your screen name enough times to remember how to spell it without having to stare at my explorer browser while I type it to make sure I get it right! ^_^U you have an interesting friend... *puts up a block so your friend can't wipe anime off the face of the earth* There! ^_^ Thanks for understanding... ^_^ I had a nice break. And I'm going to be including Mr. Gice into the story a lot more, now. Well, not this chappie, but you can be sure to look out for him immedietly following the Arkana duel. ^_^ Happy reading!
~Master of Dimensions: Oh, don't worry.. he is.. he is... ^_^ I'm not telling you what'll happen with it, either. It's a surprise.
~Tamera Raymond: Right, origionality. *spells it wrong* ^_^U Actually, it's the stuff that's not included on the show that I get the most writer's block about, but I do try to have as much oreo-ality as I can. (mmm.. oreos...) Anyways, the point ish that you shouldn't be surprised if I do use a ton of stuff from the show. I DO have to include at least SOME of it, or the ficcie won't make sense, right? Right! Anyways, thanks for saying you love the ficcie! ^_^
~NekoPlushie: I can, and I will. Stop Ring Logic, that is... *grin* but I'll make up for it by working this story a lot more! Interesting how you'd imagine the RWC as being like a snitch... I was thinking more like the ball part on the top of the Millennium Rod, only with a camera lens instead of the Millennium Eye symbol. But it works either way, and I appreciate the feedback! ^_^ *waves back*
~The Perpetually Hyper One: Yup, defenitely in the same boat. Now, let us go to the mighty temple of Ra and plead for lethargy removers!!!
Malik: *rolls eyes* Oh, Puh-lease!
Daricio: What? we're just gunna go to the tem-
Malik: *sigh* never mind, you're too insane to understand.
Daricio: ^_^ Thankies! *back to talking to you*Anyways, thankies for your inputness! (And if that isn't the most overused line in these review responses...) ^_^U
~Taby: Ok, I'll continue my stories. You don't have to cry cause of me. ^_^U Read on for chappie!
~The Insane Otaku AKA Caterfree: ^_^U Sorry about you dieing... I'll try to be updating faster...
~Evil Neptune: Thanks for showing me that web site! It's very interesting! Personally, I didn't like the dream sequence... ^_^U I can't write songfics worth beans. oh well. I'll have more people talking in soul rooms if you want. It's pretty easy to have one, though. Just imagine that you're walking or standing in a room! (or just imagine a room.) sometimes it's hard to envision the details, and others it's clearer.. (My little sister insists that an entire wall in her soul room consists of a huge panel with buttons, switches, and gadgets all over it, and that once, she pushed a button, then realized that she was now walking backwards... And I insist back to her that everything in mine is rainbow colored and it has no walls, but instead stretches out forever into the shadow realm, which is why I lose my train of thought so easily... speaking of which... ^_^U I just did, I think.) Anyways.. ^_^U Yes, the Freaky World, according to Mr. Gice, is our world. The "Real World" to him is Yugi's world. And you'll see about the Mr. Gice meeting Kaiba thing. Like I said for Ethelflaed, watch for Mr. Gice after the Arkana duel! ^_^
~C.M Aeris Queen of Insanity: Yes, Mr. Gice is a very funny, likable guy... hmm.. I wonder why he's still single... I think it's cuz he's insane... ^_^ And somewhat old, I think... o.o
~MikeNK: Well, maybe stupid pointless ficcie was a bad way of putting it. What I meant was, I was only writing it in my spare time as something that was meant to be a stupid pointless ficcie. I didn't expect to get so many reviews on it.. But frankly, it's starting to frustrate me, so I probably will stop writing it. And I won't discontinue Millennium Magic... Don't worry. ^_^ I know, you were hoping I'd have them figure it out real quick so you could stop getting confused by my chappies, huh? Not that easy, I'm afraid. ^_^ Anyways, read on for ficcie!
~Devious-Duo: Thanks for saying that you like my story! And for telling my it'd lal rihgt thta I make so mnay typso!!! ^_^ *purposely made typos* Anyways, I hope my story doesn't get THAT bad with it's typos.. ^_^U
dark angel5521: ^_^ Thanks. I will.
Seagirl: I'm TRYING to update, but it is rather difficult...

Yugi sighed. "I don't know... What if the deck we've made isn't powerful enough to beat whatever evil may be out there?"
Yami shook his head, smiling slightly. "We've created a powerful deck, Yugi. And remember, when we put our faith in the heart of the cards, there's no way we can lose."
Daricio nodded and yawned.
It was the morning of the tournament start. Very early in the morning of the tournament start, actually. Daricio had just gotten off of her paper route and was supposed to be getting ready for school.
Instead, she was in her room.... Well, sort of.. She was actually in Yugi's room talking about the tournament.
Yugi and Yami both seemed somewhat worried about the "impending evil" that Isis had talked about. Daricio wasn't as worried, but she was interested in finding out what the evil was.
"I have a question. You say that whoever believes in the heart of the cards will never lose, but what if both duelists believe in the heart of the cards... who wins then?" She asked.
Yami suddenly had a blank look on his face as he contemplated this. Yugi shrugged. "I hope we don't have to find out..."
"Perhaps... but it'd be a very interesting duel..." Daricio said. Yami nodded slightly.
Yugi went back to worrying about his deck. "What if whatever evil is out there is too strong for us... I'm only one person, and-" he got cut off by Daricio.
"No you're not. You've got Yami here helping you, and me and all your friends backing you up the whole way! That and the countless people watching the duels in my world that will also be cheering for you!" She said confidently.
Yugi smiled. "Yeah, I suppose. It'll still be hard, though."
"Yes, it may be difficult, Yugi, but remember, it is our destiny to win this tournament. Only then will I find the answers to my past." Yami said wisely. "No matter what the odds, no evil out there can stop us."
Yugi's smile turned into a grin. "Right." he turned and grabbed his belt that had the deckbox attached to it. "Then let's go! It's time to face my destiny!" he swung the belt around himself and strapped it on.
Daricio gave him a strange look. "Yugi, you missed..."
"What do you mean, I missed?"
"It's on sideways..."
"Yeah, so?"
"It looks weird that way."
"Well, I like it!"
Daricio rolled her eyes. "Whatever you say, Yugi."
"Hey, it's not like what you're wearing is any better..."
Daricio looked down at her own apparall. A green and black checkered sweater and blue sweatpants with a hole in the right knee. "These are my paper route clothes! I'm not going to wear this to school!"
Yami sighed, shaking his head.
"You will if you don't hurry up and get back to your body, Daricio, you're late for school!" DVD yelled, suddenly taking a temporary physical form right next to her.
"Whoa!" Daricio jumped at his sudden appearance, then looked down at her watch. "Yipe!" she quickly let her physical form fade out.
DVD shook his head, then turned to Yugi. "Good luck during Battle City, Yugi. Yami. See ya." he faded out as well.
Daricio stormed back into her soul room with DVD behind her and kicked DVD back into his own soul room. "Why didn't you TELL me it was 7:45???" she yelled at him.
Now in his own body again, DVD got up and began to leave Daricio's room, where he had found her 'asleep' in her bed. "I only just found you, that's why. Now get ready, quickly, or you'll make everybody late." he closed her door.
Daricio sighed, then grabbed the nearest pants and shirt combination to her, changed clothing, and ran down the stairs. "So much for having a good fashion sense today..." she muttered to herself, getting her backpack and jumping into the car.
**************************************************************************** **
{Rare Hunter: Seeker}(What? That's his Japanese name... I think... You'll see who I mean...)
Seeker opened up his laptop computer and began searching through the names listed on the screen. He chuckled to himself. It had been all too easy to hack into KaibaCorp's mainframe.
"What order would you like to see the names in, Mr. Kaiba?" the message box on the computer politely stated.
He typed in "rarest card."
"Searching..." The screen flashed, and the duelists with the rarest cards were shown on the screen.
"The hunt begins..." he murmered to himself, sipping slowly on his cup of tea.
(A/n: No, not Tea! tea! tea! The drink thingy! ^_^UUU)
"hmmm... The rarest card listed here is the Blue Eyes, obviously, and the next is the Red Eyes." he pulled out his deck and shuffled through to the Red Eyes Black Dragon card that had belonged to that fool Joey Wheeler only the night before.
Wheeler would be back today. Seeker was sure of that. He put the card back into the deck and set the deck on the table, resuming his search on the internet.
"Mai Valentine... Mako Tsunami... Weevil Underwood... Rex Raptor..." he murmered, looking down the page. "Hmmm.. They have nice cards..."
"Attention Duelists." Kaiba's voice rang out over the square. "Welcome to the Battle City tournament."
Everyone around Seeker quickly looked around for the source of the voice. Finally, somebody with long, blonde hair, matching that of the picture listed for Mai Valentine, pointed upward and shouted, "There! A blimp!"
The crowd's faces turned upwards, and sure enough, there was a large blimp flying by with Seto Kaiba's very large, pixilated mug plastered on the screen attached to the side of it.
Kaiba began laughing evilly. Seeker smirked. This guy was a jerk... It'd be easy even for him to beat this guy for Marik!
"I hope you didn't join my tournament hoping for some friendly competition; Battle City is going to be an all out WAR!" Kaiba announced.
Seeker ignored the rest of the announcement, turning back to his laptop. Kaiba was just blabbering on about his stupid contest anyway. There would be much higher stakes in this hunt than he would ever allow his dimwitted little head to contemplate.
"Hey, you!"
Seeker looked up and smirked as he saw Joey stomp closer and closer. Just as he had thought.
"You've got my Red Eyes, and I demand to be allowed to duel you for it!" Joey fumed.
Seeker shook his head in slight disgust at this pathetic thing before him. "I already own your rare card, Wheeler. Our hunt is OVER." He looked back down at his laptop once more.
Joey growled. "Listen you, if you don't duel me, I'm gunna.."
"Joey! What are you doing? Who's that?" A short boy with strange spiky hair ran up next to the frustrated blonde.
Seeker looked up and looked sideways at the kid as Wheeler ranted to him, pointing towards him alot. Seeker quickly looked up Yugi Moto's profile and grinned. This was him!
He stood up. "Yugi Moto. I challenge you to a duel!"
********************************************************************
{Daricio}
Daricio sighed as she walked to her first period class. It had been a week since the rumors and things had started, and lately it had been getting worse.
Chris's best friend had picked up on the original thing and started spreading around that Chris was in critical care at the hospital because she had gone over to his house and beat him up again... At least, that's what she knew according to a few random whispers in the halls...
That was the real problem with rumors. Daricio could never really figure out what exactly was being said about her.
At this point, though, she really didn't care anymore anyway. Let them say whatever they wanted to say. Let them avoid her for all she cared. It made it so that nobody bugged her while she was trying to concentrate on Battle City.
Yugi had just started up his first duel, and it seemed that no evil was about anywhere... I mean, sure this guy was a big creep, but that didn't make him evil... Yugi'd beat him in no time flat, and then they could move on to their next duel.
Daricio walked through the doorway and walked quickly to her seat.
"Well, whaddya know? It's duel girl!" Daricio heard a voice behind her.
She groaned slightly and turned to face to boy who had spoken. It was Chris.
He didn't seem to be injured in any way shape or form. He was exactly the same as before, complete with sarcastic tone and stupid grin.
"Hi." Chris said, suddenly caught off guard, not expecting her to have heard him, apparently, despite his loud voice.
Daricio glanced around the classroom, trying to quickly decide whether or not talking him would make a scene that she probably should avoid. Most were trying to look as though they weren't paying attention while some were staring quite openly, though all were clearly paying rapt attenion.
If she ignored him, they might think she was trying to act snooty. If she talked to him, they might think she was trying to work him into arguing with her so she could have another fight. Then again, if she talked to him, they might think-
What was she thinking? Who cares what anyone else thought? If they thought bad of her some more, it would give her more time to focus on Battle City, and them thinking good of her wouldn't hurt her either. It didn't matter.
"Hi. Where've you been lately? Not at school, I've noticed." Daricio replied to his greeting.
Chris blinked, looking around a little bit.
Daricio realized that he hadn't noticed everyone staring until now.
"Nowhere. Just at home.. I was here last week, just not this week. Where were you?" he said, being a little more quiet now that he realized he was being watched.
"In the Hospital." She replied easily, though mentally she was surprised. He had been there last week? Evil unstable rumors...
Chris was somewhat taken aback at this information. "Hospital?" he asked. "Why?"
Daricio shrugged, sitting down in her seat. "I was sick. Not drastic or anything, just unconscious, I think."
"uncon-"
Just then, the teacher strolled into the classroom. "All right, class, today, we're going to be reviewing our JS chunk paragraph styles. Everybody take out a sheet of paper and begin writing a response to the prompt on the board while I take roll. Chris, you are in my third period class, and NOT my first, if I recall correctly."
Chris mumbled something about not knowing that it was time for school to start before quickly scooting out of the classroom and down the hall. The rest of the class stiffled varying degrees of laughter.
Daricio smiled and concentrated on the writing prompt. That had turned out rather well.
Yup... Today was going to be an even better day than she had thought... If that evil didn't show up, that is...
**************************************************************************** *
Daricio: Muahahahahhahahhahaha.... Chappie ending... @_@ Took me long enough...
Malik: Interesting chapter... I thought I was going to finally show up!
Daricio: *shrugs* Next chapter. *looks over chappie* This was a short chappie...
Malik: Not really...
Daricio: Yes it was. *takes out pen and is about to write more on the story when...*
Master Of Dimensions: *begins pelting Daricio with random objects* Just post it!
Daricio: ... Oh, fine.... and- *blink* picks up something that was thrown* are you throwing money at me? *holds up dime* ^_^
MoD: *takes back dime*
Daricio; Anyways, fine I'll post it up, if you promise to stay out of my author notes.
MoD: *nod nod nod* ^_^ *does a cartwheel and a set of flips, then leaves*
Daricio: That was strange...
Malik: *nods* But at least his Yami isn't trying to kill me anymore...
Y.Billy: For now... Muahahahahahahaha... *leaves*
Malik: O.O You need some anti-yami devices on your author notes door, Daricio...
Daricio: Hmm.. I'll see if I can get Mr. Gice to get me one... He's probably got a spare one around here somewhere...
Malik: Get it SOON... *wary look towards the door where Y.Billy has just exited*
Daricio: Yeah, yeah. Anyways, hope you enjoyed my pitifully short chappie after this long wait. If you feel kind, you can send in gifts for next chappie's brithday party for Where's Yugi! ^_^U Reviews would make nice presents, too! Byez!

Instead, she was in her room.... Well, sort of.. She was actually in Yugi's room talking about the tournament.
Yugi and Yami both seemed somewhat worried about the "impending evil" that Isis had talked about. Daricio wasn't as worried, but she was interested in finding out what the evil was.
"I have a question. You say that whoever believes in the heart of the cards will never lose, but what if both duelists believe in the heart of the cards... who wins then?" She asked.
Yami suddenly had a blank look on his face as he contemplated this. Yugi shrugged. "I hope we don't have to find out..."
"Perhaps... but it'd be a very interesting duel..." Daricio said. Yami nodded slightly.
Yugi went back to worrying about his deck. "What if whatever evil is out there is too strong for us... I'm only one person, and-" he got cut off by Daricio.
"No you're not. You've got Yami here helping you, and me and all your friends backing you up the whole way! That and the countless people watching the duels in my world that will also be cheering for you!" She said confidently.
Yugi smiled. "Yeah, I suppose. It'll still be hard, though."
"Yes, it may be difficult, Yugi, but remember, it is our destiny to win this tournament. Only then will I find the answers to my past." Yami said wisely. "No matter what the odds, no evil out there can stop us."
Yugi's smile turned into a grin. "Right." he turned and grabbed his belt that had the deckbox attached to it. "Then let's go! It's time to face my destiny!" he swung the belt around himself and strapped it on.
Daricio gave him a strange look. "Yugi, you missed..."
"What do you mean, I missed?"
"It's on sideways..."
"Yeah, so?"
"It looks weird that way."
"Well, I like it!"
Daricio rolled her eyes. "Whatever you say, Yugi."
"Hey, it's not like what you're wearing is any better..."
Daricio looked down at her own apparall. A green and black checkered sweater and blue sweatpants with a hole in the right knee. "These are my paper route clothes! I'm not going to wear this to school!"
Yami sighed, shaking his head.
"You will if you don't hurry up and get back to your body, Daricio, you're late for school!" DVD yelled, suddenly taking a temporary physical form right next to her.
"Whoa!" Daricio jumped at his sudden appearance, then looked down at her watch. "Yipe!" she quickly let her physical form fade out.
DVD shook his head, then turned to Yugi. "Good luck during Battle City, Yugi. Yami. See ya." he faded out as well.
Daricio stormed back into her soul room with DVD behind her and kicked DVD back into his own soul room. "Why didn't you TELL me it was 7:45???" she yelled at him.
Now in his own body again, DVD got up and began to leave Daricio's room, where he had found her 'asleep' in her bed. "I only just found you, that's why. Now get ready, quickly, or you'll make everybody late." he closed her door.
Daricio sighed, then grabbed the nearest pants and shirt combination to her, changed clothing, and ran down the stairs. "So much for having a good fashion sense today..." she muttered to herself, getting her backpack and jumping into the car.

{Rare Hunter: Seeker}(What? That's his Japanese name... I think... You'll see who I mean...)
Seeker opened up his laptop computer and began searching through the names listed on the screen. He chuckled to himself. It had been all too easy to hack into KaibaCorp's mainframe.
"What order would you like to see the names in, Mr. Kaiba?" the message box on the computer politely stated.
He typed in "rarest card."
"Searching..." The screen flashed, and the duelists with the rarest cards were shown on the screen.
"The hunt begins..." he murmered to himself, sipping slowly on his cup of tea.
(A/n: No, not Tea! tea! tea! The drink thingy! ^_^UUU)
"hmmm... The rarest card listed here is the Blue Eyes, obviously, and the next is the Red Eyes." he pulled out his deck and shuffled through to the Red Eyes Black Dragon card that had belonged to that fool Joey Wheeler only the night before.
Wheeler would be back today. Seeker was sure of that. He put the card back into the deck and set the deck on the table, resuming his search on the internet.
"Mai Valentine... Mako Tsunami... Weevil Underwood... Rex Raptor..." he murmered, looking down the page. "Hmmm.. They have nice cards..."
"Attention Duelists." Kaiba's voice rang out over the square. "Welcome to the Battle City tournament."
Everyone around Seeker quickly looked around for the source of the voice. Finally, somebody with long, blonde hair, matching that of the picture listed for Mai Valentine, pointed upward and shouted, "There! A blimp!"
The crowd's faces turned upwards, and sure enough, there was a large blimp flying by with Seto Kaiba's very large, pixilated mug plastered on the screen attached to the side of it.
Kaiba began laughing evilly. Seeker smirked. This guy was a jerk... It'd be easy even for him to beat this guy for Marik!
"I hope you didn't join my tournament hoping for some friendly competition; Battle City is going to be an all out WAR!" Kaiba announced.
Seeker ignored the rest of the announcement, turning back to his laptop. Kaiba was just blabbering on about his stupid contest anyway. There would be much higher stakes in this hunt than he would ever allow his dimwitted little head to contemplate.
"Hey, you!"
Seeker looked up and smirked as he saw Joey stomp closer and closer. Just as he had thought.
"You've got my Red Eyes, and I demand to be allowed to duel you for it!" Joey fumed.
Seeker shook his head in slight disgust at this pathetic thing before him. "I already own your rare card, Wheeler. Our hunt is OVER." He looked back down at his laptop once more.
Joey growled. "Listen you, if you don't duel me, I'm gunna.."
"Joey! What are you doing? Who's that?" A short boy with strange spiky hair ran up next to the frustrated blonde.
Seeker looked up and looked sideways at the kid as Wheeler ranted to him, pointing towards him alot. Seeker quickly looked up Yugi Moto's profile and grinned. This was him!
He stood up. "Yugi Moto. I challenge you to a duel!"

{Daricio}
Daricio sighed as she walked to her first period class. It had been a week since the rumors and things had started, and lately it had been getting worse.
Chris's best friend had picked up on the original thing and started spreading around that Chris was in critical care at the hospital because she had gone over to his house and beat him up again... At least, that's what she knew according to a few random whispers in the halls...
That was the real problem with rumors. Daricio could never really figure out what exactly was being said about her.
At this point, though, she really didn't care anymore anyway. Let them say whatever they wanted to say. Let them avoid her for all she cared. It made it so that nobody bugged her while she was trying to concentrate on Battle City.
Yugi had just started up his first duel, and it seemed that no evil was about anywhere... I mean, sure this guy was a big creep, but that didn't make him evil... Yugi'd beat him in no time flat, and then they could move on to their next duel.
Daricio walked through the doorway and walked quickly to her seat.
"Well, whaddya know? It's duel girl!" Daricio heard a voice behind her.
She groaned slightly and turned to face to boy who had spoken. It was Chris.
He didn't seem to be injured in any way shape or form. He was exactly the same as before, complete with sarcastic tone and stupid grin.
"Hi." Chris said, suddenly caught off guard, not expecting her to have heard him, apparently, despite his loud voice.
Daricio glanced around the classroom, trying to quickly decide whether or not talking him would make a scene that she probably should avoid. Most were trying to look as though they weren't paying attention while some were staring quite openly, though all were clearly paying rapt attenion.
If she ignored him, they might think she was trying to act snooty. If she talked to him, they might think she was trying to work him into arguing with her so she could have another fight. Then again, if she talked to him, they might think-
What was she thinking? Who cares what anyone else thought? If they thought bad of her some more, it would give her more time to focus on Battle City, and them thinking good of her wouldn't hurt her either. It didn't matter.
"Hi. Where've you been lately? Not at school, I've noticed." Daricio replied to his greeting.
Chris blinked, looking around a little bit.
Daricio realized that he hadn't noticed everyone staring until now.
"Nowhere. Just at home.. I was here last week, just not this week. Where were you?" he said, being a little more quiet now that he realized he was being watched.
"In the Hospital." She replied easily, though mentally she was surprised. He had been there last week? Evil unstable rumors...
Chris was somewhat taken aback at this information. "Hospital?" he asked. "Why?"
Daricio shrugged, sitting down in her seat. "I was sick. Not drastic or anything, just unconscious, I think."
"uncon-"
Just then, the teacher strolled into the classroom. "All right, class, today, we're going to be reviewing our JS chunk paragraph styles. Everybody take out a sheet of paper and begin writing a response to the prompt on the board while I take roll. Chris, you are in my third period class, and NOT my first, if I recall correctly."
Chris mumbled something about not knowing that it was time for school to start before quickly scooting out of the classroom and down the hall. The rest of the class stiffled varying degrees of laughter.
Daricio smiled and concentrated on the writing prompt. That had turned out rather well.
Yup... Today was going to be an even better day than she had thought... If that evil didn't show up, that is...
