Hey people. Well, I'm back with another chapter after..........almost two months. Holy crow. I'm so sorry for the long wait. I meant to get this thing up a long time ago, but that never happened. I have been pretty busy with school and applying to universities, so sorry again. Oh, I am going to tell all of you now that my updating in January will probably be in short supply because I have both my English and Math provincials this semester, so I most likely won't be able to update in January. Anyways, I would like to thank the following people who reviewed.....also, this have been the biggest amount of reviews that I have gotten for any of my chapters:

Nigsea: Yeah, I feel for her too. I would hurt someone if they dyed my hair. Though her hair wasn't exactly dyed.

The Duelist of Dawn: The Fortune Cup is good because it really introduces all the characters. I think if I do do a duel all the way through, it will probably be the final duel.

Blue Hurricane: That comment isn't stupid at all. Actually, to be honest, I didn't even realize that about Ruka. Hhhmmm...........well that kinda changes things. I guess she didn't mind because she sees him as her older brother, and she has known him for over a year.

Amy 122: You'll have to read to find out. :)

Elouise Victoria: That's good. I hate being rude to people if they don't deserve it.

5FIVE5: I'm glad you like it. Yeah, high school makes things harder, but I am going to miss it.

Atemfan1: It's kind of anime-fied. I love that word.

Falling-Angel24: Well, it wasn't really soon but here is the next chapter.

Agent of the Divine One: Glad to be back. Heck ya. The fun is only beginning.

Flamaji: The secret shall be revealed soon. If not in this chapter, then the next one.

SpringBorn: All that shall be revealed. As for the pairing, I will keep it as the pairing it is, but I need some help with it because I want to keep Yusei in character, but he's hard to write about.

Yoruichi 09: Thanks.

Mike11208: Oh? Thanks for the review.

Now, on with the story! God, I'm weird.

Disclaimer: If I owned Yugioh 5D's, do you really think I would be here writing this? Also, Solum belongs to Agent of the Divine One.

Wow, I got a whole page just writing this author note.

Chapter 13: Cause You Had a Bad Day


"So, what are you guys going to get?" I asked, as I scanned the menu board.

"I think I'm going to get a taco," Yanagi said, "I haven't had one of those in ages!"

"I'm going to get a strawberry sundae," replied Ruka.

"I'm just going to get water," Tanner said.

"What are you going to get, Solum?" I asked, but got no reply. "Solum? Solum?"

I looked over to see Solum looking as the girls that had been sitting behind us. Sighing, and rolling my eyes, I walked over to him and started to way my hand in front of his face.

"Hey, Solum! Earth to Solum! Do you read me?" I asked in a funny accent.

"Solum's not in right now. Please leave a message. Beeeep." was the reply that I got.

I did a face palm behind I gave him a hard nudge.

"What? What?" he asked, finally snapping out of it.

"I asked what you were going to get, but you were to involved with staring at those girls over there," I said, jerking my thumb in their direction, "to answer me."

"Oh," Solum said before coming out with something that was so unlike him, I wasn't sure what to say, "Hey, Alyssa, do you think I have a chance with one of those girls?"

"Huh?" was the intelligent reply that I gave him.

As I glanced at the girls, I tried my hardest to suppress a shudder. Those could have been life sized Barbie dolls. Everything plastic, and only the most designer outfits and accessories, and girls that the Solum I knew before would never look twice at.

"Solum, what the heck? You were never interested in those kind of girls before, but, hey, people change. I think you do have a pretty good shot at it. Go for it," I said in encouragement.

After a couple of minutes, Solum got the courage to go up to them. Let's just say that it didn't go over so well. All three girls started to laugh, and laugh, and laugh. Solum came back looking like a kicked puppy.

"What happened?" Tanner asked. By that time, the other three had gotten their stuff, Ruka had bought my shake for me, and had joined me at the table.

"They told me that the day that they went out with a guy like me is the day that God and the devil come up here and do the tango together," Solum said, "then they laughed."

"What! Why those plastic, blond...." I said in anger but didn't get to finish my sentence because the speaker announcer interrupted me.

May I have your attention. The first duel is about to get underway.

"Forget about those girls, Solum, and let's go cheer Rua, I mean Ruka, on," Tanner said.

"Yeah, they're nothing but a bunch of blond you know whats anyway," I said, taking out the last word for Ruka's sake.

"Hey, Rua, don't worry about it. You did the best that you could," I said, trying to comfort Rua as we walked. He had just lost his duel against Greiger, but Rua had done fairly well.

"Alyssa's right. You did your best and that's all that matters," Ruka said.

"Yeah, I guess," Rua said, still looking down.

As we walked, I noticed the three girls from the stands and at the snack shack. They were the ones that had dissed both Yusei and Solum.

"Can you guys believe that duel?" asked one.

"I know. That little pip squeak had no chance. That Greiger guy is too good a duelist," another one stated.

"I wouldn't want to be that girl, whatever her name is, right now," said the third.

I silently prayed that Rua hadn't heard what those three were saying, but as I looked at him, I knew that he had heard everything. Rua now had the look of a puppy that had just been kicked and scolded. Ruka was trying to comfort Rua, but I could tell it wasn't working.

'Why those evil bitches,' I thought to myself while clenching my fist, 'First they insult Yusei, then Solum and now Rua! They are so not getting away with this.'

"Rua, Ruka, go find Tanner, Solum and Yusei," I said.

"Why? What are you going to do?" Ruka asked.

"I'm going to give those girls a piece of my mind, and you shouldn't hear the language that I am about to use," I said. They both nodded and continued down the hall. I waited until they had turned the corner before I marched up to the girls.

"So, do you guys really think that you're being funny by insulting a little kid?" I asked, trying to sound nice and innocent.

"Who the heck are you and why the hell should we tell you?" replied the first. I could tell that she was the ring leader, and would no doubt do all the talking.

"Well, I just find it pretty damn pathetic that you insult the dueling skills of a child. It's bad enough that you insulted two of my friends already, I don't take the third one sitting down," I said, loosing my innocent and sweet voice. Instead, it changed to one of anger.

All three of the girls looked at me, before I finally saw a light bulb go off in their heads.

"What, you mean that Satellite reject and that ugly emo/goth kid?" said the brunette.

"There names are Yusei and Solum," I said between clenched teeth.

"Like we give a care what their names are," said the redhead in such a snobby voice that it took all the self control that I had not to go and punch her prissy lights out.

"Whatever," I said, rolling my eyes, "You're all nothing but bitchy whores who are probably dumb enough to fail kinder garden." Well, that got them annoyed.

"Who are you calling a bitchy whore, you two bit white trash?" snarled the blond one, "If you don't quit harassing us, I'm going to get my boyfriend to teach you a lesson."

Okay, at that comment I had to laugh. I mean seriously, her boyfriend? Can't this girl fight her own battles?

"What scared you're gonna break a nail?" I asked in mock sympathy, "That's really sad that you need your boyfriend to protect you."

"Shut up!" she yelled before slapping me.

At first all I could do was stand there in shock, holding my cheek. 'The bitch just slapped me,' I thought in complete shock.

"Aw, baby gonna go cry to her fat cow of a mom now?" she said as the other two girls laughed.

Well, that got me out of my shocked state. I pulled my fist back, and connected it with her too big nose. When I pulled my fist back, I caught a quick glimpse of blood before she gave a howl and covered her nose in pain.

"Why you little cunt! You're gonna regret doing that!" yelled the red head, as the brunette tried to help her friend.

"What? You gonna fight me?" I asked.

"No, she's not, but I might," I heard a deep voice say from behind me.

I whipped around, and came face to face with a guy that had to have been on steroids. He was about six foot six, and even bigger then Tanner. At that moment, I couldn't say anything.

"Now are you going to apologize to my girlfriend, or do I have to get physical?" he asked while cracking his knuckles.

Now I know what a lot of you are thinking, just apologize and leave before you get yourself in more trouble. Most people with common sense would do that, but I'm not one to apologize to someone that deserved what was coming to them.

"No, I'm not going to apologize to her. She deserved to get hit," I said, drawing myself up to my full height and staring him right in the eye, "So you can just do your worst." All he did was stand there looking just a big idiot. Deciding that he was all talk and no fight, I turned my back and started down the hallway. That's when it happened.

I had just taking maybe three steps when I felt a pain shoot through my side. The scared bastard had waited until I had my back turned to hit me. As much as I didn't want to show weakness, I still fell to my knees from the pain in my side. I looked up just in time for my eye to meet his fist. The force of the punch sent my flying backwards. I was able to quickly roll away before he could land a kick to my back. As I tried to stand, stars burst in front of my eyes, and pain swept through my head. This caused me to fall to my knees, holding my head.

'Well, this is just fucking great,' I thought to myself.

Normally I can handle myself in a fight, but this one had caught me off guard completely. How, I have no idea. I knew that a next blow had to be coming, but, since I was still dizzy, all I could do was brace myself for another burst of pain. However, it never came. Instead, I heard something very heavy hit the ground. Confused, I took my arms from my head and looked to see the big monkey lying on the floor, and Yusei standing beside him. The three girls had disappeared from before. As I watched, Yusei grabbed the front of the guys shirt.

"Why were you picking on Alyssa?" Yusei said in a dangerous voice.

"Heh, so that's the white trash's name," the guy said, in a voice that sounded like he was wearing a smirk. I saw Yusei draw back his fist, and slam it right into the guys nose. Even from where I was, I heard the crunch of the bone as it broke and saw some blood fly.

"Don't. You. Ever. Call. Her. Or. Anyone. That. Again." Yusei said, now really angry.

I guess the guy could see that it wasn't wise to be a smart ass anymore because he quickly gave in.

"Alright, alright. I give," he said. Yusei let him go, and stood up.

When he turned, he still had an angry look on his face. I could see anger, annoyance and a whole bunch of other emotions in his eyes. Some of them confused me. He opened his mouth to say something, but never got the chance.

"There she is, sir," I heard a voice that I never wanted to hear again, say.

I turned me head to see the blond girl coming back, with a security officer.

"Is this the girl?" he asked her, once they stopped in front of me.

"Yes, that's her. She just came up to me and my friends, and gave me this bloody nose," the girl said.

"Is this true?" the security guy asked, looking at me in annoyance.

'Yeah, pick on the one that almost got the snot kicked out of her and take the skank's side,' I thought but replied, "No that's not what happened. I gave her the bloody nose because she was insulting my friends all day today, and I had had enough."

"And she beat up my poor boyfriend too," the girl wailed when she noticed her boyfriends broken nose.

I looked at the guy to see if he was actually believing this, and, by the look on his face, he was.

"You don't actually think that I beat up him, do you? I asked in disbelief.

"That was my fault," I heard Yusei say. I looked at him in surprise, "I was the one that hit him so that he would stop hurting her."

"Yes, well, you are a duelist in this tournament so I can't ban you from the Kaiba Dome for today," the security officer said, "but as for you three, I want you to leave this moment. As of now, you are not allowed back into this building until tomorrow, and if any of you cause trouble around here again, I'm going to call the police. Got that?"

All three of us nodded our heads. Shooting Yusei an apologetic look, I followed the security officer so that he could escort me out of the building.

'Well, I'm pretty sure I hit the mark when I said that this was going to be a bad day,' I thought to myself as I sat on a bench in a park beside the Kaiba Dome. 'First my hair changes color, then I go almost deaf from those idiots screaming for some guy that looks like an idiot himself, then I almost get the shit kicked out of me only to have to be rescued, and now I'm kicked out of the Kaiba Dome for the rest of the day. That day is just so fucking perfect. Not.'

"This day freaking sucks and it isn't even being close to over!" I yelled in annoyance. The only caused me to get some weird looks from people, and I scared some birds away. 'Yusei probably thinks I'm the biggest idiot in the world now.' I thought. I heard footsteps but didn't bother looking until they stopped right beside the bench. I lifted my head to see Yusei standing there.

"Oh, great. Have you come here to tell me what I big idiot I am?" I asked.

"No. Why would I?" he asked.

"Oh gee, I donno," I said, "Maybe because I shot my mouth off at a guy who is three times the size of me without thinking and almost go beat up for it."

"That wasn't your fault. He pulled a cheap trick," Yusei said, taking a seat next to me, "but I will ask you this: Why did you want to pick a fight with that girl anyways?"

"She was making fun of Rua's dueling ability, which are probably way better then hers anyways, and before she made fun of you and Solum. I hate it when people make fun of my friends, and I don't' take it sitting down," I said, putting it as simple as I could.

"I can see someone getting really mad about that, but getting mad enough to punch them? I don't know," replied Yusei.

"Well, there was that," I said, now looking down, "and the fact that she called my mom a fat cow. No one, and I mean no one, insults my mom and gets away with it."

"Alyssa, I know that when people make rude comments like that, you want nothing more then to beat their lights out right?" Yusei asked. I nodded before he continued, "But you have to learn to keep your cool. If you don't, you're probably going to get hurt a lot worse then you did today."

At that comment, I touched my probably now black eye. "Yeah, I guess your right."

"I want you to promise me something," he said, "Promise me that you won't take on a guy three times your size ever again."

"I can most definitely promise that," I said before grinning, "Hey, don't you have a duel to get too?"

"Yeah," he said, standing up, "Just wanted to make sure that you're okay."

"I'll be fine. Go beat that Shira dude," I said. Yusei nodded before turning and starting to walk away.

"Hey, Yusei!" I called after him.

"What?" he asked, turning around.

"Thanks for before!" I said, smiling.

"No problem," he said before turning and walking back towards the Kaiba Dome.

Well, that's chapter thirteen for you. Hope you liked it. It was more of a filler chapter almost. Anyways, thanks for reading. See you next time.
