Hi. without any further words--my story. oh the new character isnt coming in until another chapter I think.
Joey's pov
I rolled off the bed.
"Wha?Wha?" I screamed when I hit the floor.
I looked around. The sun was just starting to rise. I yawned lazily and dragged myself out of the bedroom and to the dining room where Mokuba was waiting for me. As perky as usual.
"Morning seto," he said happily as he poured himself some chocolate milk, looking over the rim of the glass to make sure I wasn't angry he did.
I placed my head down on the table and mounded.
"Im tiered." I mumbled, "I wanna go back to bed."
"Yeah so am I. but we have school today big brother, so up up up!"
I got up crankily and grabbed a breakfast bar from a bowl that sat on the table. I went back to kaibas room and searched his closet. I found his uniform. There was a blue shirt and matching pants. I threw on the shirt and pants with my closed eyes routine. I put on a pair of black boots and brushed kaibas perfect hair. I even brushed his teeth.
Not fun.
I stared at myself at the full length mirror and sighed. I made a scowl. I looked just like him. That kind of freaked me out. Then I heard Mokuba banging on the door.
"Um seto?"
"Yeah?"
"I have the morning stock reports for you."
I opened the door. There he stood.
"What?" I asked.
"The stock reports! Were up today! Good job big brother."
I took the thick stack of papers; there in many words was what Mokuba had said. That and a lot of paper with the word kaiba corp. printed at the top where as in the middle was all blank.
"What about this middle part?"
"That's where you fill in the stuff. I guess your more tired then I though. Come on we gotta go and don't forget after school you have to go to that meeting then you got a full night of paper work so you gotta tell the driver to drop you off at kaiba corp. after school. But you already knew that so come were behind schedule."
I was in shock.
I had to really do all this and it was only Monday?
I grabbed kaibas briefcase and walked out to the car. The limo pulled away and soon we dropped mokuba off. I kissed him on the top of the head as he ran out the door and to a group of boys who all were talking and yelling excitedly. Then in a matter of minutes we pulled up to the front of the school. I got out and the car pulled away leaving me all by myself.
I gulped.
I saw groups of kids' kids I normally talking with girls I'd normally flirt with. Only now they all backed away with fear in their eyes. I walked nervously to my homeroom. I saw Tea, Tristian, and kaiba all huddled together in the back. I felt Tristian's eyes on me and an anger coming with them. I sighed.
This was not gonna be easy.

I drummed my fingers on the table.
"Look who's here," Tristian said a scowl crossing across his face.
I looked up and saw wheeler entering. I don't think I'll ever get used to watching myself enter the room. He sat in front of weevil Underwood and Rex Raptor. Then Yugi walked in and he waved to us.
"Where's your cousin?" Tea asked as Yugi took his seat.
"Oh she won't be able to come to class until after lunch."
"Oh."
I concentrated on wheeler.
"Don't screw this up."
I though to my self. Then the teacher came in and began the lesson. The woman was not a horrible teacher but she would go off and that mistake gave the class an excuse to talk.
Then we got a pop quiz.
I knew all the answers, of course. I looked over at wheeler who sat there chewing the end of the pencil and scribbling down any answer that looked best. I sighed. There go my perfect grades,
right out the freakin window.
Then we handed the test in. I got them all right. Tristian peered at my grade.
"Lucky, how'd you do that?" he asked.
I shrugged and flashed joeys famous grin, not because I was proud of the grade but because I got a better grade then the idiot next to me. I got the best grade in class. Then I heard the bell ring and I begin to go to my next class when I saw wheeler throwing his test in the trash.
"Um," I began to say, "I left my pencil.I'll be right back."
the gang left me and I ran to wheelers side. I dint notice until right then how very tall my body was and how very short I was right then.
"Well? How did the test go?"
he pulled it back out of the trash and handed it back to me. I saw all the answers were wrong!
"Come on wheela!" I smacked him on the arm, "you're not that big an idiot."
Ok I lied
but it seemed to cheer him up.
"Yeah whatever thanks."
Then we walked out. I turned around to shut the door when I saw yugi standing right behind me. I jumped.
"Oh hey Yug!" I said with all the fake enthusiasm I could make.
"Can I talk to you in the bathroom for a minute Joey?"
I nodded and followed him leaving wheeler with that confused look on his face like usual. Yugi looked around the bathroom before motioning for me to come in then locked the door behind us. My heart lept.
"Hey Joey?"
"Yea?"
"Why did you call kaiba wheeler back in the class?"
I stammered.
"Oh I don't know wha your talin bout Yug." I
let out a phony laugh and tried to smile.
"What's going on here Joey? I'v never seen you so nice to kaiba in your life and your being really quiet and you always look annoyed,"
I rolled my eyes. "Like now for instance. Joey! Come on tell me!"
I hesitated for a moment then thought up an idea.
"Wanna know da truth?"
"Yeah."
"Rememba the other day in Da Park?"
he nodded. "Well after da accident I'v been feelin kinda funny ya know? And even my memory has been actin up. Weird huh? I didn't wanna say anything cause you know how tea will act."
he nodded then smiled.
"Ok Joey. Let's get to class."
I smiled.
I deserved an Oscar for that performance.
Joey's pov
I sat through all of kaibas classes until lunch. By then I was tired I wasn't quiet sure I really knew what I was doing. I laid my head on the table and tried to keep my eyes open. I felt like my body was shutting down. I was even shaking. I had no energy either. I looked around the lunch room for my face but only saw tea sitting at our usual table. I got up slowly and went out into the hall. I heard voices approaching.
I knew them my voice!
Yugi's voice!
I ducked around the corner and waited until I heard them passing then I pulled kaiba around the corner and watched yugi walk into the cafeteria with out him.
"What?" he asked.
"I need to know more...about you're...your p-paperwork,"
I felt dizzy and shaky. "
What's the matter with you?"
I shrugged the swayed into the spot.
He caught me.
"Hey no fainting in my body!" he barked.
I nodded only half listening.
"alright mr. new york accent." I said.
kaiba made a face thensmacked himself in the head. "
Of course!" he yelled, "Tell me did ya have any coffee dis morning?"
I shook my head as my eyes closed.
"I hate the stuff."
kaiba grounded.
"Ya idiot! My body is used ta large intakes of caffeine. Dats how I pull my all nightas. Without it I go inta melt down mode or at least my body does."
"I'm not drinking coffee."
"Why not?"
"I already said I hated it! God!"
He mumbled something I couldn't make out then dragged me over to the nearest coke machine. He dug around in his pockets for a moment then turned to me and asked,
"Can I borrow a dollar? I left all my money in my body. So now I'm dirt poor"
Oh lord.
kaiba's pov
I snatched the dollar away from wheeler and feed it to the machine. I pushed the coke button and waited.
How could wheeler send my body into meltdown? I mean not even he's that stupid.
Or at least that's what I had thought, until this very moment.
The coke came out with a clunk and I popped the lid and snapped it into his hands. He drank for a minute then wiped his mouth on my sleeve.
What a slob.
"Wow," he said after a few minutes of drinking, "I feel all better. Thanks kaiba."
I sighed, "from now on at least a cup of coffee every morning or else this will happen ok? Don't forget."
he nodded and threw the empty cup in the trash bin. He made it in.
"nothing but net, "he remarked a smirk crossing his face.
I sighed.
What a loser.
I carefully brushed my hair away from my face and fixed my shirt. wheeler had a heart attack.
"What are you doing!" he yelled as he messed up my hair and popped my collar back in the up right position.
"What are you doing!" I scowled.
"I don't fix myself in the middle of the day. I don't know why I just don't?"
"Fine fine."
"And don't stand up so straight, I look uncomfortable. Slouch some. Relax."
I did.
I felt even shorter.
"And please just smile ok?
" I forced a grin on my face.
"That's better."
I looked up at him. The big beaming smile the happy attitude.
"Ok," I scowled. "Look da whole happy attitude thing has got to go. Scowl look unhappy."
then I said in a mocking voice, "That's better."
"Very funny kaiba."
I laughed.
"I gotta go make nice ta ya friends. I'll see ya around."
I went off to the cafeteria and sat down at the table tea had been waving at me from. I looked around.
"Where's tristian?"
I asked trying to sound concerned. Tea shrugged.
"I dunno. He said something about kaiba."
I gulped.
If that meant what I thought...this wouldn't end well.
well thats it. please review. well then --um---um.
