I began the decent into unknown territory, watching the older kids rush up and down the stairs. Once I was able to get into the mail hallway I started looking for a familiar face, anyone really one of my brother friends, "biggest fans", or just someone who looked like they wouldn't eat me alive in general. I saw a short figure walking through the crowd, with pointy tri colored hair that stuck out at odd angles. I recognized it as muto-san, the one that everyone seems to know except me.

"Ah-muto san!" I ran after him but to no avail; I got stuck in the crowd. After several attempts ant jumping up and down to see where he was going a saw him turn into classroom 3c. I fought my way through the crowd and turned so that I was right outside the door. I gulped and smoothed my hair to make sure it wasn't a mess. I could hear laughter from the inside, I couldn't hear maliks voice though I leaned closer until I felt a presence behind me and a voice that said

"Do you want to go in?" I turned around and felt my face turned a deep red. I hope that the blush I was wearing concealed it.

"Hi…malik-san…" it was like a dream only it was nothing like the dreams I had, plus I am much more beautiful in my dreams.

"Here let me help you" he reached over so he was bending over me and grasped the handle of the door pushing it aside. I got a close up look at his face. And saw that his eyes were rimmed in kohl. Unusual for a boy unless you were in the Shinjuku district of one of the other nearby cities. But than I remembered he was a foreign exchange student. From where again? I can't really remember. The door opened and I saw jounachi-san looking over muto-sans shoulder to see what he was doing. I walked in and someone looked up.

"yugi-kun, maliks here and someone else" she said looking me over.

"Oh hi malik!" the boy said smiling. His hair was even wilder from the front. Jounachi turned around

"Oh hey rani, what'cha doin up here?" "My time to shine" I thought to my self. I stepped forward

"Ah um is he muto-san?" I asked pointing at the short boy.

"The one and only!" he said smiling. I noticed he had a large necklace around his neck that looked like an upside down pyramid.

"My name is rani, im hiro's younger sister. He wanted me to tell you that when he gets better he wants to play a card game with you."

"Brother?" malik asked

Yugi turned.

"Oh you didn't know malik? Rani's brother is hiro namine, one of the top five ranking duelists in Japan!" maliks eyes widened. He turned to me and said

"Wow rani! I had no Idea that hiro was your brother!"

"Yeah, namine is kinda a common last name so it does get mixed up a lot….."

"Wait mixed up a lot! What am I talking about?" I thought hoping that everyone didn't hear that I just said something that makes no sense.

"Oh yeah there's kagami namine, yuki namine, and isn't ori namine one of the finalists on this years big tournament?" jounachi said.

"Yeah I know right!" they starting chatting with each other leaving me and malik to ourselves.

"Your brothers in the hospital?"

"I mean, if you don't mind me asking" he added. We sat down and just chatted for a bit nothing much but I only noticed after I left how relaxed I felt around him.

"I didn't know you were into duel monsters malik"

"Yeah it's my hobby, I play the game a lot." he said.

He went on about how he really got into it when he was younger. And how he likes to collect them. For someone who's not really big on duel monsters I found this the most interesting thing in the world. I went on and told him more about my brother and that he was only admitted last week.

"-and so we really don't know whats wrong." I finished my sentence and looked to see genuine interest in his eyes. He doesn't seem like the type who likes to listen to people's life stories but he nodded like he could relate to some things and added his opinions like

"Wow that sucks" and

"I wish I was that good" I found it very cute and was practically melting inside. But as soon as the bell rang I snapped back into my normal self.

"Oh I have to get to class" I stood up.

"Ill see you later than" malik waved at me as I walked out

"Ok bye!"

I ran into the bathroom hugging my bag to my chest. I checked to make sure I was the only one there than ducked into the handicapped stall and did a quick victory dance

"YES! YES YES!" I whispered loudly to myself and continued to do a fast version of every dance in existence.

BAM! I stopped and held my breath. "-could have sworn I saw that little bitch run in here" someone mumbled pushing against every stall door to see if it was locked.

"Oh no! Could she be talking about me? Im the only one in here!" thinking fast I grabbed onto the coat hanger attached onto the door and lifted my feet of the ground "oh please please don't break! Im not that heavy!" I pleaded in my mind. My arms were already aching and it hadn't even been 2 seconds. I felt the vibration hit the door and I was flung against the wall.

"tch"

The girl sneered and stood to look at her handy work.

"humph" she turned around to wash her hands than walked out I looked to see a swirl of dark hair before the door closed. I waited a minute to catch my breath before I heard the bell ring

KIN KANG KON

"SHIT im going to be late for science" I thought to myself before running out the door.
