Chaki: Hello and welcome to a new chapter of Shiroi no Kokoro, Ganjou no Kokoro!
Yugi: Yea, after much delay…
Chaki: Ok…so I have a life, a couple of cottages in Cape Cod, and the Connecticon to attend. Do you expect me to go fast?
Yugi: Well yea…
Chaki: -glaring- Anyways, I hope you enjoy the next chapter, which has been unofficially named the Attack of the OCs!

It was dark. Two figures stood alone in a midst of black and purple clouds.
"So, it's agreed. We strike at noon." One said, his face just as twisted as his pointy brown hair.
"Yes, and then those too fill finally receive their just deserts!" The other figure said, his angel white wings acting like a light despite all of the darkness.
"MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" The two laughed, a sound so shrill and cold it could paralyze even the bravest of warriors.
-♥-
Daisuke was wondering through a deep cave, when he heard something that made him stand still. He looked around hoping to see something where the sound would come from, but to no avail. As he went farther and farther into the cave, the high-pitch sound got even more shrill. It sounds like…laughing…Daisuke thought as he kept wandering farther and farther into the darkness. It felt like each step he took he lost a part of himself. Daisuke kept moving forward, until he saw two people up ahead.
"Hey!" He called out, on the off chance that they were friendly. "You wouldn't happen to know…" Daisuke stopped. This can't be! Daisuke thought, almost panicking. I thought he was…
"Oh look, seems like we have a visitor!" Daisuke looked up, too shocked to say anything.
"Oh what ever should we do?" Daisuke spun around, but a little too late. Daisuke struggled to breathe as he was being pinned against the wall. The first speaker came over, and carelessly pulled out a knife from his back pocket.
"I know!" The knife-wielder said, as Daisuke plummeted into darkness.
-♥-
"GOOD MORNING DOMINO!" Daisuke's radio alarm blasted as Daisuke screamed from the sudden wake up. "It is currently 75 degrees, the perfect day for various outdoor activities, such as a trip to the one and only Domino Theme Park!"
"WHAT!" Daisuke shouted, grabbing his alarm clock and holding it in front of his face. "THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!" Daisuke rolled out of bed, landing with a huge thump on the floor. Almost instantly jumping up, Daisuke ran towards his closet. "What ever shall I do? How could I forget that I have my date with Anzu-chan today! No, no, no! This'll never work out!" Daisuke said, as he anciently pulled out one of Dark's black spandex outfits. "There must be something in here that's mine! No, no, no!" Daisuke was furiously pulling out everything in his closet. "AHH! THIS CAN'T BE!" Daisuke said a few minutes later, a rainbow of outfits thrown all over. "WHY ARE THESE ALL DARK'S STUPID SPANDEX! THIS'LL NEVER WORK OUT!" Daisuke shouted, so loud that the whole city could hear.
-♥-
In other parts of the city, Yugi was patiently waiting for the bus to Domino Theme Park when a mysterious man walked up to him.
"Hello," He began to say in a thick Italian accent, as Yugi looked up. "Are you Yugi Motou?" He asked. Yugi didn't like something about this guy, he was very tall (compared to poor vertically challenged Yugi), he was wearing a long dark trench coat that stopped right at his ankles and black shoes that were so shiny they reflected Yugi's face when he looked at him. As Yugi looked up at the man to reply, he couldn't help but shutter at the fact he was also wearing a black hat (which Yugi noticed was a desperate attempt to hide his long blonde hair) and dark sunglasses.
"Yea, that's me…" Yugi said hesitantly.
"Hello. My name is Joe Smith, and I am from the American Dueling Society."
"Woah, America…?" Yugi said to himself, surprised that he was famous all over the world.
"I was told to give you this as a welcome to our elite dueling league." Joe pulled out a bone white envelope and handed it to Yugi. Yugi carelessly opened the envelope, and to his surprise, he pulled out a ticket to the Domino Theme Park.
"Awesome!" Yugi said, happy with his gift. "A free theme park ticket!"
"Yes, that ticket is only good for today…" Joe stopped, fidgeting with his gloves. "so go there ok? Bye!" Joe ran off at high speed, before Yugi could ask anything. Yugi turned around to look, but to his dismay Joe had rounded a corner was nowhere to be seen.
That was weird…Yugi thought, but his thoughts were interrupted as the bus arrived. Oh well, he did give me a free ticket. I'll just tell Anzu-chan to save her's for later… Yugi sat by a window and watched as the theme park got closer and closer, each foot increasing his excitement. Wait for me Anzu-chan! I'm coming!
-♥-
When Yugi arrived at the theme park, he found himself disappointed. "Anzu-chan?" He asked, navigating his way through the thick crowds with great difficulty. "Darn it, I must be early…" Yugi fought his way to a bench, where he sat down to rest. After about a minute of sulking, Yugi noticed that Daisuke was sitting right next to him, staring out into space. "Daisuke!" Yugi said, causing Daisuke to scream and fall off the bench.
"Oh, hey Yugi!" Daisuke said, smiling while he fought the crowds to regain his position on the bench. "What are you doing here?"
"Oh, Anzu-chan asked me…" Yugi stopped. Maybe I shouldn't use the word 'date.' It might sound a little mean…Yugi thought, the last thing he wanted to do was hurt his new friend. "…asked me to come with her today, since I got a free ticket in all." Yugi held up the ticket for Daisuke to see.
"Really? Strange, I got one of those too…" Daisuke said, pulling out an identical ticket from his shirt pocket. Yugi couldn't help but notice that Daisuke was wearing a school uniform, but one that was strange to Yugi. "In the mail, and the letter with it said that it was only good for today, which is strange when you think about it..."
"Same with me…" Yugi said, his thoughts trailing off to things of a more important matter, mainly Anzu.
"Anyways, Anzu asked you to come?" Daisuke asked, looking straight into Yugi's eyes.
"Uhhhh, yea, why…. Don't tell me you were asked to come also…" Yugi said as his excitement faded.
"Yup!" Daisuke said happily. "She called me last night."
WHAT! Yugi thought, his head exploding with a mix of anger and surprise. Ok Yugi…Stay calm…You'll get through this! Just remember…she asked you first…Yugi felt his face getting red with anger. "Oh…really?" Yugi said, trying to contain his anger.
Daisuke grinned. "I was so surprised! Its not like Anzu-kun to call me at all, especially at around 7:00!"
SEVEN O'CLOCK? Yugi felt as if an atomic bomb had gone off below where he was standing. SHE ONLY CALLED ME AT EIGHT…Yugi was about to cry, but he bit his inner lip hard to stop the tears from flowing out like a typhoon. Right on cue, for Daisuke at least, Anzu arrived.
"Hey Daisuke! Great to see you! Oh, hi Yugi!" Anzu said, greeting them both. "Glad you two could make it." Anzu smiled, and Yugi's troubles seemed to melt away like bittersweet chocolate on an oppressingly hot summer day.
"Uh…Anzu-chan…" Yugi said, fiddling with the ticket in his hands. "You see, I got this free ticket in the mail…" Yugi lied, so Anzu wouldn't get suspicious. "So I guess you won't have to use yours…"
"Same with me." Daisuke said, holding his up for Anzu to see as well.
"What? Oh I wish you had told me earlier! I was up all night trying to figure out how to activate them!" Anzu said.
"Well," Yugi blushed a little, "If you really feel that bad about not using them, I guess I can wait until I come again…" …even though its only good for today… Yugi said, finishing up his sentence in his thoughts.
"Wait…" Daisuke said, staring at Yugi with a questionable look on his face. "I thought these were only good for today…" Even though Yugi desperately tried to signal Daisuke to stop talking, sadly he only caught on after he was done.
"Well, that sucks, doesn't it?" Anzu said, looking troubled. "Now what?" She said, looking around trying to think of a solution. "Oh!" Anzu said, running off towards another direction. "You two wait right here, I'll be back in no time!"
-♥-
A half an hour later Anzu, Daisuke and Yugi were happily enjoying the theme park. Anzu had apparently found one of her friends (who was going to the theme park with a group of her friends) who gladly accepted the ticket with much thanks.
"Do we have to go on this one?" Yugi asked, looking up at the two-story high roller coaster that seemed to engulf him. "Its too big!" Yugi felt like a two year old when he said this, along with the fact that the ride was at least twenty times his size.
"You don't have to, you know. But I'm going!" Anzu said, running towards the long twisty line while Daisuke slowly followed.
"Come on! Please, can we skip this one?" Yugi pleaded. After standing there for a few minutes Yugi gave up and followed Anzu and Daisuke. I have a bad feeling about this…Yugi thought.
-♥-
"Oh! Oh! Lets go on that one next!" Anzu shouted with glee as she ran up to a sign reading The White Dragon and jumped up and down next to it.
"Uhh, Anzu-chan…." Yugi began to say. "Are you ok?"
"Yea, why?" Anzu said, looking at Yugi curiously.
"You seem…hyper…" Yugi said, looking down at the ground, feeling awkward saying this when usually it was him who was hyper.
"No, I'm fine! Now are we going on this ride or not?" Anzu said impatiently.
"I better not…I feel like I'll puke if I go on one more…" Yugi said shamefully.
"That's ok Yugi." Anzu said kindly, even though Yugi could tell she was a little upset. "You can wait here." Anzu looked at Daisuke, who was busy playing one of those carnival games where you squirt water in the dot and win a prize. "Come on Daisuke…" Anzu said angrily, as she was dragging Daisuke towards the ride entrance.
"Anzu!" Daisuke screamed, trying to resist the pull to claim his Styrofoam-filled fish prize. "Wait! I want my fishy!" Yugi couldn't help but laugh out loud, the sight of Daisuke clutching his fish while Anzu was dragging him by the yellow collar of his uniform was too funny to resist. After Anzu and Daisuke were happily standing in the waiting line (well, one of them at least), Yugi sat down on a nearby bench passing time by watching people walk by. It wasn't long after Anzu and Daisuke left that four girls came and stood right by where Yugi was sitting for a while. Yugi couldn't help but watch as the scene played out; personally he thought that they were all crazy.
"Which ride shall I torture the Monnie with now?" One said.
"No, no! Don't torture me pleaseeeee…" Another would almost whine, her golden-brown hair hanging carelessly down to her waist.
"Come on you two, don't fight." Yugi was very puzzled by this girl. She seemed normal enough, however she was carrying a megaphone behind her back. Her other friends didn't seem to notice, but when Yugi caught her blue eyes she put her finger up to her lips to make sure he wouldn't say anything. Yugi nodded to show he got the message.
"I know!" The first girl said. "Lets go on THAT ONE!"
Monnie stared, her ice blue eyes reflected a look of utmost fear. "THERE IS NO WAY…" Monnie began, "IN HECK YOU ARE GETTING ME ON THAT RIDE ASHLEY!"
"Sure there is!" Ashley grabbed Monnie by the arms and started to drag her towards the entrance line.
"They are too weird…" One girl said to herself, staring at Ashley and Monnie with a look of disgust.
After Monnie and Ashley two were safely out of hearing range, Yugi walked over to the girl with the megaphone. "So," Yugi began to say slyly, tapping her on the shoulder. "Why are you carrying a megaphone around?" The girl jumped, looking around cautiously.
"Please, keep it quiet!" The girl said spinning around to face Yugi. "It's for a prank we're going to be playing on Ashley and Monnie, if we get caught we're done for!"
"Don't worry," Yugi said, smiling. "I won't tell." The two girls let out a sigh of relief.
"So what brings you here?" The girl asked happily. Yugi paused for a moment and looked at the two girls. They don't look like they're from Domino… Yugi thought, staring at the girls with curiosity. Yugi was probably right. Both girls had a very strong American accent, something that Yugi had never heard before. After studding their appearances, Yugi couldn't help but notice that the megaphone girl was staring at him with disgust, while the other was looking at him oddly and making a growling noise.
"Well, you see…" Yugi was so embarrassed for staring too long. "I'm here…um…with my friends!"
"How nice…" The girl with the green eyes said.
Yugi looked around to see how Anzu and Daisuke were doing, feeling uncomfortable with the conversation at hand. Everybody, including the two girl's friends, was boarding the ride. Anzu and Daisuke seemed to be all strapped in, while Ashley was trying to force a screaming Monnie into the harness. Finally Monnie got strapped, but continued to painfully shout "NO DON'T MAKE ME! I DON'T WANNA DO IT!" just as the roller coaster left the docking station and the operator snickered as the cart departed. Yugi continued to watched the roller coaster start its climb up to its multiple peaks, each time with a scared Monnie (or what looked like her) clinging to the safety bar and a hyper Ashley screaming her head off for no apparent reason. Yugi looked for Anzu and Daisuke, and sure enough, they were sitting right behind Monnie and Ashley. "So…" Yugi began to say, trying to start up the conversation again.
"Wait a second…" the megaphone-girl began to say, staring at Yugi closely. Yugi took a few steps back, but the girl only got closer each time. "I think I know you…Wait! You're Yugi Motou, right? Yugi Motou, winner of Battle City and defeater of Marik, right? Hey Hannah! It's really him! Its really Yugi Motou!" The megaphone-girl said, smiling. Hannah just rolled her eyes and continued to watch the ride.
"Wait…where the hell did you learn that!" Yugi said both flattered and scared that she knew so much. "Don't tell me you're a fan girl!" Yugi said taking a step back, falling backwards on to a bush. "Well if you are then stay away! Go mooch off Kaiba or something!" Yugi crossed his fingers in an "x" in front of his face, hoping that it would keep the megaphone-girl away from him.
"I'M NOT A FANGIRL! AND I'M NEVER GOING NEAR KAIBA EVE!" The megaphone-girl shouted, almost enraged by Yugi's comment.
"Here we go…Just make sure you don't hurt him ok?" Hannah said, sighing.
"What! It was stupid Lily that started this whole Kaiba thing!"
"What?" Yugi said, very confused.
"Well…" Hannah said, stepping in. "You see…" Hannah started to whisper something into Yugi's ear, turning his face a bright shade of pink. The megaphone-girl just stood there with her arms crossed and back turned to them, enraged.
"SHE DID WHAT!" Yugi shouted in both disbelief and shock.
"God! Its just a stupid story!" The megaphone-girl said angrily.
"ZAMB!" Hannah said, pointing to the roller coaster.
"What?" Yugi said, now even more confused than before. "What the heck is going on?"
"Hold on… they're getting towards the top…" The megaphone-girl said, and sure enough the cart was nearing its highest peak. Yugi couldn't help but notice that Monnie was having a panic attack, while Ashley was talking frantically to her friend making her even more scared. Anzu and Daisuke were talking causally, as if they weren't on a huge roller coaster and about to fall down a heck-knows-how-big-drop. When Yugi saw this his heart started to throb, even though Yugi had no idea why
Yugi turned his focus to the megaphone-girl and Hannah in order to hopefully stop his throbbing heart. Just as the ride paused before it took a huge plummet underground, Hannah screamed into the megaphone something that Yugi couldn't understand, while the megaphone-girl was laughing hysterically. Just as the cart started to roll down the huge hill, Monnie opened her eyes and screamed, which in turn made Ashley start laughing like a madman, which led to freaking Anzu and Daisuke out beyond their worst nightmare. Yugi turned around to tell the two girls they shouldn't have done that, but they were gone. Shortly after Ashley and Monnie came storming out of the ride, with Anzu and Daisuke trailing behind.
"Yugi," Anzu whispered into Yugi's ear. "Do you know these people?"
"Yup." Yugi said back. "Sadly…"
"YOU!" Monnie said, pointing a firm finger at Yugi. "WHERE THE HECK DID THEY GO!" Monnie glared at Yugi so hard, sending an ice-cold chill down his spine.
"How am I supposed to know!" Yugi said innocently. "I was just talking to them for goodness sake! I wasn't even looking when they took off!"
"YEA WELL YOU'RE THE ONE WHO LAST SPENT TIME WITH THEM!" Monnie said, picking up Yugi by the collar and started to shake him violently. "SO TELL ME… WHERE! DID! THEY! GO!" Monnie started to abruptly shake Yugi, until she spotted the girls trying to sneak by them. Monnie screamed "YOU'RE GOING TO PAY!" throwing Yugi aside before she chased after them, while Ashley laughed hysterically as she chased after them. Yugi, Anzu, and Daisuke (who at this point were too stunned to say anything) just shrugged and walked away, pretending they had nothing to do with anything.
