Chapter 3: Alone

Cy's POV

GROAN!! GROAN!! AND GROAN AGAIN!!

It had been about a week since we arrived at DA and NOTHING HAS HAPPENED!! From what DM and DMG told me about this place I thought it would be crawling with odd stuff! And the only thing odd here is that so called doctor! At this rate I'm NEVER gonna find meh parents!

SMACK!

Ow… who did it?

I looked over to my left and say Aqua looking at me funny.

"You ok?" she asked me in just above a whisper. I nodded. Ever since we met that day that dumb and dumber tried to kill me, we've been pretty good friends. And whenever see seems to think I'm getting depressed or something, she hits me. I nodded. "Liar! You were thinking depressing thoughts again!" damn her…

"Was not!" I said back in a whisper. "I was thinking how much I wanna kill this teacher!" we both looked up front. It was a woman with dark skin, short black hair that went just to her ears; she was tall, skinny, and fresh out of collage. She wore jeans and a white turtleneck sweater and over it an Obelisk coat. Ms. Ocean… I. Don't. Like. HER!! And not just cause she teaches grammar and stuff!

"So we're back to that again, huh?" Aqua asked raising an eyebrow. She knew I hated Ms. Ocean. Hell I think the women knew it herself! I nodded again. Aqua sighed. "Its all in your head dude."

"She's out to get me! I swear to Ra!" I said in a loud whisper.

"QUIET!" we both looked back over at our teacher. "Stop talking or I'll give you a detention Ms. Arr!" notice she didn't yell at Aqua.

"Hai Ocean-Sensai!" I called up to her. Oh my god I'm being a kiss ass! Kill me! "Gomen! It won't happen again!" she looked me over.

"Make sure it doesn't happen again! Now then class…" she went back to her teachings and I went back to my thoughts.

This past week… I had hardly seen any of my friends. They were all in high classes since they all scored better than me in the writing part of the entrance exam. Only reason Aqua's here is cause she's not good with grammar and literature and stuff like that. And the only time I do see my friends is lunch. And that's was only once. It seems its hard to sneak off into other dorms. Aqua's able to do it 1) cause she moved into the red dorm, and 2) …she's Aqua. In other words, REALLY intimidating and scary! So no one messes with her.

Less you count Ven and Nihlus but they're as close as close can get.

Speaking of the wonder twins, I see them in a few classes too. Including this one. They sit behind us. So I only talk to Aqua…when I can get away with it of course. So as its plainly obvious unless your name is Ven, I've been pretty damn lonely. Hell! I haven't seen Andy in FOREVER!! I miss my squirrel boyfriend! I would wail but then Ocean-Sensai, bleh!, would yell at me…again.

I turn my attention to the clock to see that I only have a few seconds left. YES!! 5… 4… 3… 2… 1…

RRRRIIIINNNNGGGGGG!!

I'M OUTTA HERE!! I literally jumped out of my seat and ran for the door as fast as I could. Free! Free as a bird!

Time to fix this loneliness! It's the weekend! So I can see my friends! Yay! I can't wait!!

Nihlus POV

"QUIET!" I heard Ocean-Sensai shout at Cy. God. Can't she just let her talk to Aqua at least once! She is NOT helping my headache.

"Hai Ocean-Sensai!" I hear Cy said in a kind voice. "Gomen! It won't happen again." LIAR! You say that every damn time!

I let out an annoyed sigh as Sensai went back to her lesson. Ven looked over at me.

"You seem annoyed dude…" he said.

"You seem observant you baka!" I retorted back. I sighed again. This week hadn't been what I expected.

From the "welcoming party" thing, or the day that Crowler-Baka-Sensai introduced the new students, I could have sworn that things would be… interesting to say the least with the new bunch of students. But nothing. Nada. BOREDOM! Less you count making fun of Cy… cause that's just fun.

Ven had been a little worried about me since I had never done that to anyone before… not even to Aqua! But something about Cy, it just makes me wanna tease the crap outta her! Oh well. Just go with the flow I guess you could say.

RRRIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!

And this class is over! I looked over to see Cy jump out of her seat and run for the door. Must be looking forward to finally seeing her friends for once. Guess I'll leave her alone and hang with Aqua and Ven or something. I looked over to where Cy was just sitting to see something headed toward me.

Wait…WHAT?!

SMACK!!

I went flying backward out of my chair and onto the cold hard ground behind me. I could hear Ven laughing his ass off right now, as I lie here. I look up a bit to see what hit me in the face.

It was Aqua's backpack.

…DAMN HER!

I jump up to see Aqua smirking and holding out her hand, wanting me to return her bag.

"Had to get you out of Lala land one way or another Ni-Chan!" Aqua said, smirk still on her lips. I anime style shivered. Oh god… she didn't just call me that! She didn't! "Come on and gimmie my bag Ni-Chan!" …she will pay for that!

"Ok! HERE!" I said as I threw her bag and hit her in the face. The now breathing again Ven looked up and saw what had happened and went back to rolling around on the floor, laughing. Aqua's bag fell from her face to the floor. Before the bag fell I had been smirking. But once it had fallen…

A look of horror crossed my face.

"BYE!!" I shouted as I grabbed my own bag and Ven and headed for the hills. A pissed off Aqua is NOT something to be messed with. I chanced a lot behind me a regretted it fully! Aqua's eyes were now glowing red, black was surrounding her eyes so she looked totally evil! Her bag was back on her back and she was running like someone would from the Olympics! "GAH!" I started running faster. Ven, who by know had stopped laughing and looked like he was about to wet himself, looked up at me.

"PUT ME DOWN! SHE WANTS TO KILL YOU NOT ME!!" he shouted. Three…two….one…

"VEN YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR LAUGHING AT ME AND ENCOURAGING NIHLUS!!" Aqua shouted on cue. Ven screamed like a little girl.

"NOES!! WHY LORD WHY?!" Ven shouted over reacting. I sighed and ran faster.

"You're just making it worse dude." I said.

"Ya but its fun!" he said grinning like the idiot I knew he was. "And you know what else is fun?"

"Not running into your twin sister?" I asked looking forward while Ven, the lovable baka, was looking at me.

"Huh? What are you GAH!!" and naturally he flew right into Chao who was walking by with Cherri-Sempai.

"NII-BAKA!!" Chao shouted. Ya…she's pissed… "WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!!"

"GOMEN NEE-SAMA!" Ven said standing up and bowing. "But me and Nilhus here were just running from Aqua's wrath!"

"Again?" Chao asked. Ven nodded and Chao sighed. "What did you do this time? Wait… I don't want to know." Just then Aqua had appeared out of nowhere and put me in a headlock…joy… "Aqua…?" said person looked at Chao. "You can punish Nihlus anyway you want. I got dibs on Nii-Baka!" Chao said picking Ven up and slugging him over he shoulder.

"NO!!" Ven cried out. "You're more evil than Aqua! Can't I just get away a free man?" he begged.

"NO!" Aqua, Chao and I shouted. The other two looked at me totally confused. "What? If I can't get out of it, and you people know I can't, then neither can he!"

"That seems fair…" Aqua said trailing off a bit. She then got that evil glint in her eye that usually means someone's about to get hurt…badly! And oh look… she has me in one of her impenetrable headlocks. …Pain here I come!

"Have fun with Aqua there Ni-Chan!" Ven said winking at me… ok he may be slug over Chao's shoulder so I'm not able to see his face but I know he's winking! I glared at him as best I could from where I was being held. Chao then hit his legs for me. "OW! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" he shouted as his sister.

"For being mean to Nihlus in his final minutes on this Earth!" Chao said winking at Aqua who grinning back. I know Chao is kidding but that's just mean! Cherri-Sempai then walked up and patted me on the head.

"It was nice knowing ya dude!" she said and walked away. I never did like her… "Oh and Aqua!" Aqua turned around and faced her. "Do you know where Cy-Chan is? I was looking forward to seeing her after so long!"

"Oh Gomen Sempai!" Aqua said back. "But I don't! she just ran right out of her seat and out the door the second the bell rang! No idea where she went!"

"Ok! Arigato! I gots hunting to do then!" Cherri said as she pulled out a camouflage vest, a hunting hat, a rabid squirrel dog and a bazooka. "BYEBYE BETCHS!! MWHAHAHAHA!!" Cherri then took off running with the squirrel in tow. Everyone but Chao blinked.

"…Alright! Who gave Cherri sugar?!" Chao shouted.

"I DIDS!!" Kris shouted as she appeared out of nowhere.

"WHY?!" all of us shouted at once. She shrugged.

"Cause I was bored!" she then grinned and hopped happily after her older sister. Chao shrugged and ran off with Ven still over her shoulder, an evil glint in her eyes. I shalt pray for you my friend! I then chanced a look up at Aqua, she had an evil glint in her eye herself.

"Ready for payback time Ni-Chan?" she asked using that evil nickname of doom, though I didn't notice. I was to busy shaking. "I'll take that as a yes!" she chirped and pulled me along to lord knows where.

NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Cy's POV

…Ok… I like to think of myself as a patient woman. I can take a little teasing, a lot of insanity and jokes…

BUT THIS IS JUST SMUCKING CRAZY!!

I looked around the Slifer cafeteria, where me and my friends planned to meet last time I saw them. AND NO ONE IS SMUCKING HERE!! WHAT THE HELL!?

I sighed as I took a seat and put my feet up on a random table. I leaned back in my chair and looked up at the ceiling, DMG appearing next to me.

"What's wrong Cy?" she asked me. I sighed again.

"None of my friends are here and I haven't seen them for more than 5 minutes in FOREVER!" I replied. Ugh. I bet they made new friends already in there higher dorms! Lucky bastards. They get to make friends easily cause they're higher up! All the while I just get looked DOWN upon just because of what dorm I sleep in. God this sucks! DMG looked at me worriedly.

"You're thinking depressing thoughts again Cy…" DMG looked at me worriedly and sighed. I just kept looking up at the ceiling, not paying attention to her at all. "Cy…?" nope. I can't hear you! I don't need another talk today! I already got one from Aqua and I don't need it from you. I turned my head slightly and I was met with purple.

"WAH!" I shouted as I fell over. I looked over and saw the Dark Magician standing over me. "How do you always pop up out of nowhere like that?!" I shouted at him. He shrugged.

"I'm a magician. Its my specialty." He said. I sighed again for the 29387 times that day.

"Whatever I'm outta here." I said getting up and walking out of the cafeteria. I walked all the way into the forest to a clearing, sat down against a tree, and brought my legs up to my knees. The two magicians had long since disappeared so I was totally alone at the moment.

I looked up at the sky with tear-filled eyes. I don't know when I started crying but the tears just kept falling. I sobbed silently into my knees.

"W-why does e-everything h-happen to me?!" I said in between my sobs. I know I'm acting like a totally baby right now, but can I help it? Nothing and I mean NOTHING has gone right since that day all of this shit had started! And the fact that all of my so called best friends are apparently ignoring me doesn't help in the least!

I wish I could just got back to my high school and my life! Not someone else's! this kinda stuff; dueling, making new friends, saving people I care about; that's not the kinda stuff I can do! Sure I can duel and SOMETIMES can make new friends, but that doesn't mean I want to do it! Dueling was barley even a hobby for me and now I'm at a school for it?! GAH! Where did I go wrong?! Did I anger god?! He gave me this gift for dueling but none of the passion for it! Damn you irony! Damn you!

I stopped myself mid rant and just went back to crying my pitiful eyes out.

You see what I meant? When life is perfect, it always falls down and crashes hard.

But if you're lucky, someone will be there to pick up the pieces that was your life and set you back up. But if you're me…

You're not so lucky.

Unknown POV

I followed the girl from the Slifer dorm all the way to the woods without making a sound. When I found her she was crying into her knees. This was perfect! Everything was going according to plan!

She was all alone and seemed to be getting more and more depressed by the minute! If my hunch is right, then I'll have what I've been after for the past few decades after all!

And this time: no one can stop me!

I looked at the poor girls tear-filled eyes. Yes… it won't be long now! Soon she will have broken completely and I'll have what's rightfully mine! MWHAHAHAHAHA!

Andy's POV

GAH! WHERE THE HELL IS SHE?!

I was walking around alone. Me and the others had split up to look for that idiot!

Which idiot is it we are looking for you ask?

MY GIRLFRIEND THAT'S WHO!!

She had said to meet in the Slifer cafeteria on Friday after school. When we had gotten there she wasn't.

Granted we were about two hours late but that wasn't our fault! It was Crowler-BAKA! He said that me, Mai, Kyo, Autumn, and Fang were talking all class and kept us in a detention! AGAIN! And for once we were quiet!

I sighed getting out of my pissed out moment.

I hate to admit it but I miss my little Cy-Chan! Since we've met I've never been apart from her this much! I sighed again.

And the other reason I really wanna see Cy is cause the last time I saw her in between classes, she seemed REALLY down! And when I mean really, I mean super ultra mega I'm gonna kill myself really!

Ok I hope I'm wrong about the last part but that's not the point! The point is she's depressed and I can't find her! DAMMIT!

I kicked a rock that was in the middle of the path that I was on and I then heard a splash. I looked up and saw that I was back at the Slifer dorm again. I saw the others and ran over to them.

"Any luck?" I called out. They all shook their heads and sighed sadly.

"Gomen Andy but we have no idea where she would go." Mai said sadly. "And we have no idea where Em and Jem are so we can't ask them."

"There most likely being forced to hang out with those losers that have been stalking them since they got here!" Kyo said. What she was talking about was pretty much people that can only be called fan girls/boys. One look at the Wonder Twins and those fools were in love! Guh! Kill me! The wrath of a fan girl is BAD!!

"Maybe we should just stay here and wait for Cy to come back?" Fang asked. We all looked at her. What she just said made sense! "What? Is there something on my face?"

"No…" Autumn said. "Its just that you said something smart for once!" she shouted the last part.

"HEY!! I ALWAYS SAY SOMETHING SMART!" and this is where I zone out. Fang and Autumn started to argue and the others tried to stop it. I looked up at the sky and sighed sadly again.

Cy… where ever you are… come back now so I can make you feel better you idiot! I thought.

I just hope I'm able to help her back to her old self before the Cy I know and love is gone forever…
