A/N: What's up? I looked over the first chapter of this fic and thought to myself "Damn, Did I just write this? This is pretty sick…" It's amazing what you can do when you're angry. Anyway, before I continue, I just want to say that this fic was inspired in part by a conversation that I had with a group of people online about race. After some of their little racist jokes didn't phase me, they seemed to be a halfway logical bunch. We talked for about an hour about different subjects, from Martin Luther King Jr. to our (when I say our, I mean United States, so that may not be neccescarily yours) immigration policies…it was an eye-opener for me about this problem that I believe unfortunately may be getting worse instead of better. Well, some thanks are in order before I continue:

Angry People

Chapter Two

"You guys, I'll be right back."

Tea got up from her seat at the table and went over to Malik's table. She ignored some of the odd glances that came her way as she sat down next to him.

"Do you mind if I sit here?"

This drew no response from Malik. As a matter of fact, he was acting as if he didn't even notice her presence. He merely took another bite of his peanut butter and jelly sandwich and stared off into the distance.

This may be a little more difficult than I thought…

Tea studied over the young man's features in silence. He had a slender build, with a tanned, copper-colored skin tone. His hair, a clean clear white, sprawled over his head and shoulders. "My name's Tea Gardner…I'm in your Geography class. Do you recognize me?"

More silence.

"Um…I noticed that you usually eat by yourself…and I was wondering if you would like to join me and my friends. Would you like to join us?"

Malik rose up from the table, a somewhat angry look on his face. "What the fuck do I look like…a charity case? I sit by myself for a reason."

He stormed away as a small crowed watched the scene in front of them. Tea simply picked up her lunch and went back to the table with her friends, seemingly undaunted by Malik's harshness.

"To be honest, I don't know why you tried to talk to him anyway Tea." Tristan spoke, his voice surprisingly stern. He, Duke, Serenity, Ryou, and Mai had all made their way to the table and had seen the incident.

"Tristan, she's just trying to be polite to him. What's wrong with that?" Serenity spoke, standing up for her older friend.

"Nothing Ren, I'm just saying that it could be dangerous for her and Malik to be together.." Tristan said bluntly as he ate a piece of his hamburger.

"He has a point...certain people could see..." Duke nodded his head toward a group of boys who had their eyes on Anzu. Most of the stares were of nothing but lustful cravings, but one of them was one of deep rage and furious anger, just waiting to be unleashed on some unfortunate victim.

"The skinheads? Why would they care?" Ryou asked as he put down his drink.

"Um...you don't know already Ryou?" Mai asked, a somewhat shocked expression on her face.

"Nope."

Mai leaned in and whispered something into his ear, and he nodded his head in understanding.

"Well...that explains a lot of what we've seen today."

"Can we talk about something else? I don't really want to talk about it...Yugi anything going on at the shop today?"

Yugi blushed slightly at the mention of his name. He had a small crush on Tea since they had met, and everyone in their particular circle of rriends knew. They had all encouraged Yugi to talk to her, to let her know how he felt, but his shyness towards her prevented him from doing so.

"Nothing really...Grandfather said he would be leaving on vacation tonight, so he's closing the shop up for the weekend."

"YES! Party at Yugi's house!" Joey and Duke proclaimed loudly, giving each other a high five.

"Forget about it guys, the last time we had a party Ryou threw up all over the bathroom floor, You and Kaiba got into a fight Joey and somebody got caught making out in my closet! That's enough for me."

Everyone laughed as Yugi recalled the last party they had nearly a month ago, it was a wild affair indeed. Suddenly, Tea felt someone tower behind her...in her mind she already knew who it was.

"Get up and come with me, now."

Sorry...had to cut if off right there! Due to the surprising number of reviews, I will make this fic longer than I anticipated...does anybody know who the guy behind Tea is? I bet you don't! Hahahaha...ok, I'll shut up. Anyway, please review and take your vitamins!
