Well After a long wait, I have returned and am ready to start to write this great fic again for everyone.
-------------------------------------
After Aiken and Riot arived back in Domino, they headed for Aiken's place for the night. "We'll go and fix this whole thing up tomoreow Aiken. It's not like you seen them ina while anyway..." Riot says and flops down hard on Aiken's couch.
"Its doesn't matter how long its been... It's just the fact they're wrecking my life again." Aiken says and kicks an old pizza box on his floor.
"How are they wrecking your life... Or how did they wreck it before, they gave you everything you ever wanted." Riot says and leans back in the chair. "I would have killed to have paretns like yours." He says and sighs
"They were terrible, Before I left they gave me everything... They're no challage in that. And now they have to go and die to get me kicked out of the finals! This was the only thing I have ever done by myself and was proud of! But no they knew somehow and died to get me kicked out!" Aiken says adn punchs a nearby wall
"Just calm down, Man. Its not like they wanted to die." Riot says and stands up.
"Whatever!" Aiken says and walks out of his house.
Riot simply sits back down on the chair. "At least your taking it better then I thought." He says
----------------------------------------
"Come on Bakura, your coming back to Domino with me. Lord knows where Aiken is... But I'm hoping he's home." Nire says and drags Bakura onto Pegasus's Jet that was going back to Domini City.
"Why do you even care about Aiken that much... Everytime your together you always get made at him and he runs off." Bakura says as he gets dragged onto the jet.
"...Its just... I've known Aiken for a long time..." Nire says and sits down.
----------------------------------------
Aiken begans to just walk around the city, he just kept walking intill he has infront off a large manstion. "...Damn it!" He says as he stares at it for a few minutes. "I can't do this..." He says and then walks off again. He starts to walk toward a local park. Its pretty much filled with duelist dueling. Aiken sits on a bench and wacths some of the smaller kids duel.
"Gotcha now! I'll summon my Tiger Axe to attack mode!" A young boy says as a Tiger wearing blue armor appers carrying a Large axe.
"Not bad but my Monster still has more attack power!" The other boy taunts.
"Not when I activate my Magic card, Axe of Despair. And equip it on my Tiger axe." The young boy says again as his Tiger axe throws its old Axe high into the sky, when the axe was out of sight your could notice a Black flash of Light and the axe begin to fall. "Tiger axe jump and grab your new weapon!" The boy yell. His monster then Growls and jumps into the sky grabing the new weapon, although this axe looks almost demonic. "My new axe powers my monster up to 2300 attack points." the boy says and smirks.
"So my summoned skull has 2500 attack points. You still to weak liek always." The other boy taunts
"But... thats the only power-up I have... Fine I'll set one card face down and end my turn" The young boy says.
The other boy draws then orders his summoned skull to attack the Tiger axe. "It's game over Kid!" He says
The young boy laughs as his face down card lefts face up. "I activate my Metal morph, raiseing my monsters attack points to 2600. And that easily kills your Summoned skull. And your last 100 life points." The young boy taunts and laughs again.
"Good macth, lets duel again some time." The other boy says and goes to shake the young boys hand.
"I don't shake hands with losers!" The young boy says and walks away.
"What are you doing Kid... Your acting like a jackass!" Aiken yells over.
"I'm the Lord Nathan, Leader of the Card Sharks gang, and who the yell are you!" He says and looks at Aiken
"I'm Aiken, I'm a finalist in this years Duelist Kingdom!" Aiken says and smirks.
"They must be letting anyone in tornaments these days." Nathan Taunts.
"I worked hard to get there and I'll show you now!" Aiken yells as his duel disk activates.
"Fine, but we play by my rules... We duel for each others decks!" Nathan says and starts his duel disk.
"I'm first then!" Aiken says and draws his cards. "Ha, Great Hand Gagagigo, Unshaven Angler, Rush Recklessy, Monster Reborn, Sea Serpent warrior of darkness and Tornado Wall. I'll take this punk down in a second then I'll worry about my parents and Nire and everything. Its all about this duel." Aiken thinks
A crowd starts to gather around when they hear a duelist inf the finals is dueling the leader of the card sharks. "Looks like everyone is going to see by beat you" Nathan says
"Not a chance! I'll start with Gagagigo!" Aiken says as his Reptile appears and begins to pose like Aiken.
"...Your posing..." Nathan says and looks blanky
"Me and my monsters work as one, and with other powers combined we shall destroy you!" Aiken says and ends his turn.
"Freak..." Nathan says and draws his cards. "I'll set one monster face down and end my turn" He says
"Oh wow... one card face down, what a great play by the leader of the super gang. Your such a novice." Aiken taunts and draws. "Heh, Yomi ship now much use." Aiken thinks. "I'll just summon My Sea Serpent Warrior of darkness to attack mode and attack your face down card!" Aiken says and his blue sea serpent launches a water wave from its spear like weapon.
"Fool, you activated my Cyber jar! Now we both card 5 cards and play any monsters in them. Oh and it destroy all monsters on the feild right now." Nathan explains and lays 3 monsters face down.
Aiken draws his 5 cards. " A Leagedarey ocean, Giga Gagagigo, Ocea Mega fortress of Darkness, Suijin and another Rush Recklessly... Uselss" Aiken thinks and ends his turn.
"Heh heh heh" Nathan taunts and draw his card. I'll flip over my 3 neddle worms, forceing you to discard 15 cards from the top of your deck, then I play 3 book of moons to put them back face down." Nathan say and laughs
Aiken draws his next card. "Your doomed! I'll play leagdary ocean and summon my Giga Gagagigo!" Aiken says as a Large green repilte much like gagagigo cept covered in armor appers! "Attack his worm with Justice punch!" aiken yells out and his monster destroys Nathan worm.
"You still lose 5 cards your your deck and now I draw and flip another and you lose all the cards in your deck and deck-out and I win!" Nathan says and flips his monster causeing Aiken to deck out.
"So much for a finalist!" "Your a loser!" "Get out of that tornament!" Thw crowd begins to yell at Aiken as Nathan takes his deck off of him.
Aiken looks at the crowd and runs off yet again. "ARG... Why can't I do anything right these past couple of days, Nire loves Stuipd loser Bakura, my parents are dead, I lose my deck to some snot nosed little kid! How did I even make it to the finals! I don't even havea reason to go back." Aiken yells and slumbs down on a wall in an Alley
"You have to keep dueling Aiken... you made it to the finals your awesome." A little kid says and sits down infront of him
"Yeah your the best! It showed you last duel in the castle on T.V, I wanta learn to duel like you! You even tricked Mako and that Bas guy!" A young boy says and sits by him
"And you duel for That Nire girl, that so romantic... I wish someone would duel for me" A young girl says and elbows the young boy as she sits down with them all.
Aiken looks at the kids and smiles as he wipes a tear from his face. "But I just lost my deck kids... Unless you three want to go help me make a new one. The card shop is only around the corner you can help me pick out the cards" Aiken and and lokos at them.
"Really! That would be so cool!" The kids say as they get up and start trying to push Aiken up with them.
Aiken jumps up "Lets go!" He says and points up and begins to run to the store with the kids.
---------------------------------------------------
Nire and Bakura, head towards Aiken's place in search for him, when they arrive Nire checks the door see's ints opened and walks in to find Riot alseep on the chair he was sitting in. "Riot, get up!" Nire yells toward him.
"Huh... What the hell you talking about! I wasn't cheating! Your cheating!" Riot mumbles still alseep
"Get up!" Nire yells again as Riot pops up in the chair and looks around ."Where's Aiken at?" She asks
'I dunno he ran off, I doubt you'll see him tomoreow tell the funeral." Riot says and Yawns.
"..Funeral... What happened?" Nire asks
"Aiken's Parents died, And Aiken has to come back and bury them and stuff... He'll probaly have to run teh company now too." Riot says
"Company!" Nire says rather confused.
"Aiken's Parents own Dark Horizen Enterprizes, Ever notice That dumb shirt of Aiken's, thats like the only thing he took from home when he ran away a couple of years ago. His parents tried to find him but he wrote them a letter saying he only wanted to live on his own and see you tough it was to do everything for himself." Riot explains.
"So Aiken's Rich?" Nire asks
"Well... Now he is, I'm guessing his parents left him the company and stuff." Riot says
"So your saying...Aiken was rich and ran away because he wanted to do stuff for himself, and now he's like a millionaire.?" Nire asks and looks rather confused.
"Meh... More like Billionaire, but basically yes. And Aiken sort of hated his parents I'm surprized he even came back." Riot says.
---------------------------------------------
Aiken and the kids went to the card shop and quickly began picking out cards for his new deck. Before long They had constructed a brand new deck for Aiken. "With this new deck... I'm be invincable in the finals!" Aiken says as he flips through the deck one last time.
"Yay those cards are the best!" One of the young boys say.
"And we Even found a bunch of new Gagagigo monsters for you!" The other adds.
"And some of those pretty cards I picked out." The young girl says.
Aiken puts his new deck in his pocket and walks out of the store. "Now Come on, we gotta think of something else to to for the rest of the day! Can't stand around here being bored can we?" Aiken says
The kids look at Aiken and smile. "Well lets go play at the park!" They fell and being to drag Aiken off to the park. At the Park Aiken did whatever the kids wanted to for the rest of the day, Which was pretty much play around with him.
-----------------------------------------------
The next day came along rather quickly and Aiken found himself at the funeral home as soon as it opened for the morning. Aiken sat there for most of the day, waiting for someone else to show up... But no one did. So It was only Aiken sitting and trying to remember happy moments with his parents. Or at least moments when they were all around. It was pretty Late in the day before someone else came in the funeral home.
"Aiken... are you in here?" Nire said as her voice bellod throught the funeral home.
Aiken remained quite as he still wacthed the caskets his eyes almost glued to them.
"Aiken..." Nire said lighty as she put her hand on Aiken's sholdar.
Aiken looked up at her slighty as a tear rolled down his face. "I can't belive they're gone... I was going to go back sometime. Right after I made a name for myself by winning this tornament." He said and wipes his face.
"I think they would have been proud of you anyway." Nire said as she sat down beside him.
"Or at Least when I got you to marry me." Aiken said as a smile wiped across his face. "...Thanks..." He said and looked at her
"For what?" She asked a bit puzzled
"Just...thanks... for everything you ever done for me. I know I'm a jackass alot and thanks for standing there by me." He said as stood up.
"Don't wor..." Nire said before she got cut off by Aiken
"Come on Lets go somewhere else... This place is sort of depressing, and the future Duel monsters champ can't be depressed now can he!" Aiken says and he begins to smile again and puts Nireup to her feet.
"Thats the old Aiken we all like" Nire says as they start to walk out.
'You mean the old aiken You love right!" Aiken says and looks at her
Nire hits him in the arm. "In your dreams." She says
"I'm going to start counting those punches as love taps you know." Aiken says and winks at her.
Nire hits him again in teh arm only harder this time. "Oww... Okay that one hurt..." He says as they leave.
In the next couple of days Aiken sorted out everything which had to be done with his parents death, and has finally ready to head back to the duelist Kingdom to finish up the finals. And become the King of games!
