Kay-(ended sugar rampage) Sorry about earlier. I'm okay now.

Yugi- You're never okay.

Kay-I'll ignore that just because you're back and I'm happy!(hugs Yugi)

Yugi-I get the point.

Kay-Anyways, time to RTR(Respond To Reviewers)!

Chibichib- I thought it was pretty funny too! It was actually one of my favorite parts!

Egyptianprincess1961- I'm happy that he's back too! (hugs Yugi again) For Yami knowing, he will find out eventually but not for a while. Yugi doesn't think he's ready yet.

Kay-Since you're back, you get to do the DISCLAIMER!

Yugi-(groans) Kay/yugirules does not and will probably never own Yu-Gi-Oh. She only owns Haru, Kaiya, and Cody. Now to the story!


A Daughter's Helping Hand Chpt. 8
Hanging With Cody

Kaiya groaned and hit her head on the floor that gave her a larger headache than before. "Why me?" she whispered to herself.

She remembered before any of this started. How the only person in the world she could talk to was Haru and how she would try so hard to make her dad give her answers. Now everything about her had changed. Her life, her knowledge, her hair. Now she had this dead guy talking to her. She was insane!

Hitting her head was a loud enough noise to wake up Haru. "You up already?" he asked and startled her.

"Let's say I had a restless night." Kaiya replied getting off the floor.

"Oh. Do you want to meet my cousin here? He's really cool." Haru said

"Sure. What's his name?" Kaiya asked

"Cody." Haru replied
"Where does he live?" Kaiya asked walking out of the house.

Haru laughed "Next door."

Both of them went next door and knocked on the door. A teenage boy answered. He had dark brown hair with hazel eyes. "Hey Haru. Who's this?" he asked

"This is Kaiya. Kaiya, this is Cody." Haru introduced them

Kaiya and Cody shook hands. "You wanna come in?" Cody asked

"It would be weird for us to just stand here." Kaiya joked.

Cody's house was huge too. Especially his living room. Kaiya heard someone in the kitchen. "Mom! Haru's here with his friend!" Cody yelled into the kitchen. His mom came out.

She had orange hair with forest green eyes. She was wearing an apron at the time. "Hey Aunt Serenity!" Haru waved.

"Hello Haru. Who's this?" Serenity was looking at Kaiya the same way everyone did and she knew what it meant. That she looked like Yugi.

"This is my best friend, Kaiya." Haru pointed to Kaiya.

"Welcome Kaiya. Now don't make a mess. I just cleaned up. Tristan's in the garage." Serenity went back into the kitchen.

"Is Tristan your uncle?" Kaiya whispered to Haru.

"Yeah. He's has this really cool motorcycle. He's the one that got me into them in the first place." Haru explained

"Let's go to my room." Cody said walking towards his bedroom door. Kaiya and Haru followed.

Once again, Kaiya saw nothing unusual about Cody's room. Guess she was expecting more since she never had been there before.

"What are those?" Cody pointed to the Duel Disks on their arms.

"Duel Disks. I found them in my bedroom. One belonged to Haru's dad and the other to Yugi Motou." Kaiya explained

"Cool, but your Uncle Joey dueling?" Cody asked and Haru nodded

"But doesn't he like to go by Joseph?" Kaiya asked confused. Mai had told her he used to go as Joey but not anymore.

"Yeah, but we call it behind his back. And have you seen how he's changed? It's great!" Haru exclaimed

"So what are we going to do now?" Cody asked

"I don't know. Why don't we go to your house?" Haru asked Kaiya. She shrugged.

"Up to you guys. But if we do go, how is Cody going to go?" Kaiya wondered

"I have my own motorcycle. I'm lucky that my dad is so into them." Cody smiled

Cody got his motorcycle from his garage while Kaiya and Haru got Haru's from next door. They got met up in the middle of the street. "Just follow us." Kaiya said tightening her grip on Haru.

Cody followed as they led him towards Kaiya's house. They got there in about ten minutes. Kaiya opened the garage and let them both park in there. She opened the door.

"In your game shop still in business?" Cody asked looking around.

"Yeah, but I can't go in there. My dad doesn't let me. " Kaiya responded

"You mean that you actually obey some rules?" Haru asked

"I have my limits." Kaiya answered

"But doesn't the shop have cards that you guys got from the Duel Disks?" Cody asked again

"Probably." Kaiya replied

"Then let's go in and check." Haru smirked and so did Cody.

"You guys are so cousins." Kaiya put her hand to her forehead. "But I guess it couldn't be that bad, right?"

Kaiya grabbed some keys hanging and unlocked the shop door. As it opened, a little bell sounded. All of them looked around. O n the walls, were Duel Monsters everywhere.

"You guys are loaded." Cody remarked.

Haru looked at a random card. It was Battle Ox. "Wonder if we could have these?"

"No way. We're not even supposed to be in here." Kaiya said and Haru smirked.

"Do you even listen to yourself? You're going so soft. Where's the girl who got in detention and ditched with me?" Haru asked

"You ditched. From what I've heard you don't sound like it." Cody commented

"Anyways, do you see how many cards are in here? How about just 1 card? Your dad doesn't come in here and take roll on them." Haru said and Kaiya rolled her eyes.

"Fine whatever." Kaiya muttered and Haru walked over to her.

"Thanks." Haru said planting a kiss on her cheek. He went back to the cards. Kaiya turned away. She agreed with Cody and Haru so she looked at some cards too.

While Kaiya wasn't looking, Cody gave Haru a high five. "Nice one." Cody commented and took a card. It was the Dark Magician. He liked it. "I've got mine." Cody said Haru found his card, which was Card Of Sanctity.

Kaiya was looking around the register when she saw a golden box at the very bottom of the counter She pulled it out curious. It had an Egyptian eye in the front of it with strange hieroglyphics. She pulled of the lid and found three cards that were amazing. She read their names carefully. They were Slifer The Sky Dragon, Obelisk The Tormenter, and The Winged Dragon of Ra. She felt that if they were in such a nice box, that they were really rare. She put the lid back on and stood up.

"I've got mine." Kaiya said and both boys looked at the box. "Came with." She replied and opened the shop door.

"Wait! Wouldn't this place also have a Duel Disk too?" Cody asked and Kaiya groaned. She had seen one while she was looking. Kaiya bent down behind the counter and grabbed one. She threw it at him and he barely caught it. She grabbed a random deck and threw it at him too.

"Let's go to my room now." Kaiya said a little annoyed. All of them went to Kaiya's room sneaking past her dad's room. Once inside her room, all of them grabbed a place to sit. Kaiya got her bed, Haru got a side of the carpet, and Cody got the other side.

Cody opened his deck and started figuring out things with the Duel Disk. Haru was checking his deck. Kaiya had the golden box in her lap. She opened the lid and looked at the three cards. Haru saw her looking in it and he got interested.

"What's that?" Haru asked Kaiya. It startled her. Cody looked up and got curious too.

"This? It's just something I found in there. You guys convinced me to take it." Kaiya responded

"What's in it?" Cody asked

"These." Kaiya tilted the box to show them the three cards. The two boys were amazed.

"Wow." Both of them said staring at it.

"You guys want to spilt it up?" Kaiya asked and the guys looked like it was Christmas.

"You mean that?" Cody said and Kaiya laughed

"Duh. I'll take this one and you guys can choose what you want." Kaiya picked up Silfer.

Cody picked Obelisk and Haru got Ra. "Thanks Kaiya." Both of them said as they put the cards in their decks. Kaiya slipped hers in too.

All of them just joked around for a while. "What are your fave quotes? Just for the heck of it." Cody asked

"I got one. 'If you take my advice, I can't guarantee it will help. But think of this, I give advice for five bucks!' I made that one myself." Haru said

" 'Stupidity is not a crime so you're both free to go.' " Kaiya said and laughed.

"Oh yeah? What about that girls are more wimpier than guys?" Cody replied and Kaiya smirked

"You wanna bet?" Kaiya grinned and attacked Cody. In a matter of seconds she had him pinned to the ground.

"Okay, you proved your point now get off me!" Cody yelled and Kaiya got off satisfied.

"Haru. Haven't heard from you in a while. What's up?" Kaiya asked but Haru didn't respond. He was just staring at something.

Kaiya and Cody turned to what he was looking at and both gasped. Coming under the crack of Kaiya's door was the Shadow Realm.


Kay-DUH DUH DUH DUM! The Shadow Realm returns! What will it have in store for Kaiya, Haru, and Cody? Review and very soon you will find out!
