Annime: Ok, it's time I pick this story off the ground!
Yugi: What?
Annime: I ran out of ideas…until now.
Yami: Ok? Now what are you going to make us do?
Annime: You'll find out.
Ryou: Annime doesn't own YUGIOH or anything belonging to someone else.
Chapter 11
Yugi looked out the window of the car. They were still moving towards Boston and they would be there any moment.
"Yugi, are you awake over there?" Yami asked.
"Yea, just looking out the window," Yugi replied.
"Ok, stay awake with me because we are here."
Yugi looked up to see the exit sigh for Boston. He smiled. His mom had told him about Boston. You'd think it would be weird that someone who wanted to see a place so badly and lived so close didn't see it until they were a teenager. Ok, maybe not, but Yugi had been asking his grandpa to come here since he was 5.
"No, Yugi, maybe when you're older," his grandpa had told him.
'Now I'm older,' Yugi thought. 'It's time I see the city that my mom fell in love with.'
Yami drove off the highway and onto a busy street.
"Which way should we go?" Yami asked.
"Let's try," Yugi paused for a second, "right."
Yami turned right quickly and they soon saw huge buildings all around them.
"Wow," Yugi muttered. "This place is awesome."
Yami smiled. He wanted Yugi to be happy.
Benjamin Foster was sitting at his station in Boston's local museum. Being stationed in Boston was NOT what Ben had wanted when he had signed up for the Secret Service.
He was acting as the man who would be at a desk for people to sign into the museum. He didn't remember what it was called, because he didn't really care.
'Two more days,' Ben thought. 'Then I can go to a different station. Maybe I will be able to go to Hawaii?'
Yami and Yugi drove past building and signs as they made their way to the local museum.
"Here, we will be able to learn some things about the American Revolution," Yugi spoke excitedly. Yami silently chuckled and didn't say anything…because he still didn't know what Yugi was talking about. "Boston was probably one of the most major cities were conflicts arose. Conflicts that helped start the war, that is." Yugi was at the edge of his seat. Yami didn't know what was so exciting, but then decided that it had to run in the family. Yugi's grandfather was an Egyptologist and loved history just as well as Yugi.
"So, will you someday tell me what you are talking about?" Yami asked with a smirk as he pulled into a parking spot.
"Oh, yea, sorry, Yami," Yugi answered with a nervous laugh. He then started to explain to him what the American Revolution was, how it started, and its importance. Yami paid close attention as they walked towards the main doors, but couldn't help but chuckled as Yugi's excitement empowered his words.
Ben yawned. There was nobody coming! No schools and no kids; it was summer break for crying out loud! Who would want to go to a museum in the middle of summer? He was surprised as he saw two young boys walking towards him and proving him wrong. And, he was even more surprised when he saw one of the boys was familiar…TOO familiar.
"Hello, sir?" Yugi said to Ben. "We would like to go into the museum. Is there a fee?"
"Oh, oh, no; there's no fee," Ben replied quickly. "Just sign your name here and then you're free to go."
"Ok," Yugi said. He wondered why Ben was acting so strange. He then looked at the man's name tag.
Benjamin Ray Foster
Yugi wondered why the name was familiar.
"So, do you to young men need a tour guide?" Ben asked. He wanted to be the one to show these two around. May, just maybe catch the smaller one's name—
"No thanks; I'm sure we'll be fine," Yami answered. Yugi thanked the man and both the boys walked away to look around the museum. Ben tried not to show it, but he was a little disappointed.
"Ben," a man called from behind him. "It's your break hour!"
Ben turned and waved.
"Thanks, boss."
Ben then walked out from behind the desk and went to follow Yugi and Yami.
"This," Yugi said pointing to a picture, "is John Adams. He defended the English soldiers who participated in the Boston Massacre by being the men's lawyer."
"I don't understand," Yami replied. "I thought the English soldiers killed men in that happening."
"Yes," Yugi answered, "but John Adams didn't think they were completely guilty. He stood up for them, not because he sided with England, but because he sided with the law."
Yami tilted his head.
"How can someone not be guilty for killing someone?" Yami questioned.
"The colonists were throwing ice and clam shells at the soldiers, and there were colonists behind them telling them to fire. Back then, if the commander told them to fire, they would fire. They must have gotten confused." Yugi looked over at Yami. "There is probably more to that story, I'm just not sure of it right now."
"Oh," Yami said still looking at the painting. "I think I understand more, though. You are quite the historian, Yugi."
Yugi blushed. "Well, my parents love American history and the American Revolution is a specialty of theirs."
Yami nodded and both boys moved onto the next painting, not noticing that Ben was following them.
"So," Ben muttered. "His name is Yugi?" Ben scratched his head. Where had he heard that name? "Darn it," he muttered again. "I should have read his name from the paper he had signed in on." Ben just shrugged frustrated and continued to follow the two spiky haired teens.
"Oh," Yugi said as they stepped in front of another painting. "This is George Washington, our first president."
"So," Yami spoke, "what is the difference between this so called president and a pharaoh or king?"
"The president doesn't have all the power," Yugi explained. "He is just like an ambassador and is also part of one branch of American government. There are three branches: The executive, the legislative, and the judicial. They all work together to make sure one branch doesn't abuse or gain too much power."
"Ah," Yami said, now understanding. "Interesting; who created this plan of government?"
"Oh, the Congress debated for a while," Yugi replied, "but they finally agreed on this, and it has worked ever since."
Ben was very impressed with Yugi's knowledge.
'He sounds just like Jonathan Muto and Jon's father—,' Ben stopped himself mid thought. 'That's it!' Ben cried in his head excitedly. 'It's Yugi Muto!'
Just as Ben looked back at Yugi, there was a gun shot. Ben's heart skipped a beat. Yugi + gun shot in the same building = bad news.
Annime: I DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT (!) own the Secret Service and I DO NOT know if they really do what I said Ben does, but this is fanfiction…NOT REALITY!
Yugi: Please review!
