Footsteps pounded against the concrete, one two, one two, one two, one two as Kaida Motou and Aiko Kaiba desperately dashed to make the 7:00 bell. Now, if one paid attention to the last names of these two, they could easily say that their friendship was impossible. After all, their fathers had been arch rivals for many years. But through these odd circumstances, they had managed to befriend each other. Even Yami and Kaiba had mad amends after one final duel. Who won? A person may ask such a question. But the truth is, only they know. What was done was done, and they buried that hatchet. Kaida resembled her father in many ways: Her hair was long, and a jet black color that was naturally streaked with blond and red. Her personality was amazingly like Yami's in the way that she was awesomely competitive, and very good at every thing she did, though she was not one to brag about it. And her mother? Anzu Mazaki, group cheerleader and dear friend. Much in this way was she like Anzu, perky and cheerful. But of course, there was more to Kaida (affectionately known as 'Kai') than just being 'Yami and Anzu's daughter' or the 'Princess of Games' as Aiko would teasingly address her. The very fact that she was Aiko's best friend was proof of that. As for Aiko herself, well, there was no mistaking her as the daughter of Kaiba, as far as physical traits. Her long chestnut hair was almost the exact shade of her dad's, and usually kept into a loose ponytail. Her sparkling blue eyes were not like ice, but warmer, and yet there was still no dening she had 'Kaiba eyes'. Personality wise, she resembled him in the way that she cared about few but gave her all to those she did, and she was stubborn to a fault. But things take a turn at this point…for she, Aiko Kaiba, is one you would call a 'punk'. Her favourite out fit was black jeans and a black T-shirt with the word 'Element' in bright red.
And so, the two friends slid into their seats as the bell rang, celebrating their success with a small smile and a thumbs up. Aiko mouthed 'Are you on for tonight?' Kaida responded with a small nod. 'That new club on Main, right?' This time, Aiko was to nod. They no longer lived in Domino – In fact, they were in New York where Anzu worked as a dancer, and Aiko's mother was a secretary for Kaiba Corp. "9:00 – dpn't forget it" With a final nod, Kai turned to face the board, where the teacher was droning on endlessly about Ancient Egypt. It's kind of odd to hear her talking about my father like he's royalty. Which he was but still. A delicate finger was prodding her on the shoulder. When Kaida turned to look, Aiko was offering a small folded note which read;
Yo, wanna ditch?
Are you crazy? No! Do you know what my dad would do if he found out I skipped?
Is the princess scared of what Daddy will say?
Ah, shut up Aiko. You know as well as I do what your dad would do! You'd never see sunlight again!
Whatever.
Yah, yah yah. This is a boring lesson though. I already know this stuff. After all my dad was the pharaoh.
They passed some more notes, talking about the grand opening of the club, until the bell mercifully rang and dismissed them to Math. The rest of the day seemed to pass quickly. Before they knew it, they were heading their separate ways to get dressed.
