Chapter 3: The First Meeting

" Now, if B is half of C, then what is A?" Mr. Loyed asked the class. I raised my hand

" Umm… is it 34?"

"Correct!"

First block: Math. I never really like math, I was only so good at it because my father made me work so hard on it. Really, it was quite a snores fest! No kidding! I seriously started multiplication when I was only five years old! And it's really a shame when you're the only one in the class who's actually learned the stuff.

The bell rang shortly afterward, THANK YOU GOD! I really couldn't wait to get out of that class. Just as I was about to leave the room to go meet Tea, so she could help me get to my next class, the teacher called me back.

" Oh, Miss. Gardner, could I see you for a moment?"

" Umm, sure." What was it with teachers and me? It was like this every year! It'd be the first day of the entire school year, I'd be the only one who knew the stuff, and the teachers felt as if I need to be put up a grade in a certain subject. It was really getting old now.

" Miss. Gardner, I couldn't help but see that your more introduce to the type of Algebra we teach in this grade of learning."

' Why?' I thought to myself, 'Why didn't I keep my mouth shut? I've been doing this for years! I should have learned by now!'

" So?" I replied calmly, " What are you saying?"

" Miss. Gardner, I feel that, for your own good, I should have u move up one grade. Maybe even two."

I really felt like slamming my books right on the desk, and yelling in her face, 'WHAT!' but I didn't. I had been through it so many times before! It was really getting on my nerves!

" Mr. Loyed, I don't think that's necessary. I mean, I still don't fully understand the whole thing …" but I was cut off.

" Miss. Gardner, I do feel that you know everything about what we are leaning about, and I do feel as if you need to be put up a grade. And all I need is the signature of a parent or guardian." She said as he filled out a slip of paper, and handed it to me. I took it from him with out further augments and walked out the door. Knowing my parents, they'd be all for it, especially my father. I walked down the hall, to the spot where I told Tea, I'd meet her, but instead, I found Yugi waiting.

He saw me coming and wave at me with a big smile.

"Hey, Riyo! Over here!"

Did I have much choice? I walked over to him seeing that I had no other option.

"Hey Yugi! Where's Tea?" I asked him.

" She'll be along in a minute, but I wanted to ask you some thing first."

"Ok, shoot."

"Is it true that your father now works for Seto Kaiba? Tea told me, I didn't really believe her."

'Who on earth was Seto Kaiba?' I asked myself.

" Umm… I know that my father works for KaibaCorp, but nothing else."

"Oh, so it is true. Thanks! I just wanted to know." And before I could even say goodbye, he hurried off and out of sight. I thought that it was the strangest thing. And who was this Seto Kaiba guy? Little did I know, that time would tell.

Tea never showed up to help me, so I decided to go out on my own. I made a lot of ground! But before I knew it, I was lost. Oh lucky me! I was about to turn the corner when all of a sudden, some guy ran strait into me!

We both fell onto the floor. My books flew everywhere, and his briefcase exploded as well.

" Hey! Watch it!" we both yelled at the same time.

The guy was really tall, and had brown hair and ice blue eyes. But I really didn't care about what he looked like. HELL HE JUST KNOCKED ME OVER! WHY SHOULD I CARE ABOUT HOW THE DAM GUY LOOKED? Although, I have to admit, the guy was hot!

I started to grab my books and he tried to gather his things up as well, only, he seemed to be watching me. Trust me, I could tell! I picked up my last book, then got up off the floor and hurried away. The whole time, I could feel those icy eyes watch every move I made.

I finally found my next class, and took a seat at the back. Thank god, Tea was in the class with me! I started to re-organize my books again, but some thing crossed my eye. A piece of paper! It looked like a homework sheet, and at the top of the sheet read the name:

Seto Kaiba.

So… what you think? R&R PLEASE! Thankies!
