A/N: Chapter 30!

Thanks to everyone viewing and reviewing!

Thanks go to darkmagknight, Secret Identity, and alien clan 472. I picked alien clan 472, because it seemed like it would work the best.

Martha was help Leo and Luna get ready for the hearing. Luna didn't have much trouble, but Leo was.

"Uh! Why can't I get this bow-tie to stay straight," Leo whined.

"Let me help you," Martha said, "It is a used suit. So, it's obviously not perfect."

Akiza was getting ready too. She was wearing a light blue skirt and bright red formal shirt. It looked similar to her school uniform.

"Akiza? You all ready?" Yusei asked.

"Not yet," Akiza said.

She went over and put her duel disk on her arm. She looked though her cards and found Homunculus the Alchemic Being. It was a bit scary looking, but she thought it could be used it to help describe her powers. She put it on top of her deck.

She then went under her bed and grabbed the folder with the test results.

She walked out and everyone looked at her confused.

"Uh Akiza, we're not going to school," Leo noted.

"I know," Akiza said with a smile.

"Why the duel disk?" Luna asked.

"It'll help me explain my past a whole lot better," Akiza said.

"Well, whatever floats your boat," Yusei said as he went and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Could you, uh, tell me what the papers are for?" Yusei asked curiously.

"No way! Wait until the hearing," Akiza said smiling.

"All right. I'll go get my runner and then I'll be off," Yusei said, "See you later."

"Bye Yusei," they said.

"Okay you guys, lets head into the car," Martha said.

They got in and they headed off. Akiza looked at the window and all the happiness she showed a few moments ago, was drained.

"I'm so nervous," Akiza thought, "I have to trust myself and hope for the best. Maybe Yusei..."

She snapped out her train of thought as Yusei pulled up next to them. When they got to the stoplight, he waved to them. The twins waved happily, but Akiza waved with only a slight smile on her face. Yusei then sped ahead of them, but made an early turn, when he was out of their sight.

"Akiza definitely more nervous about this than the rest of us combined. Something's not right. I should try to cheer her up before it starts," he thought.

When they met at the courthouse, the twins and Martha went inside. Akiza said that she would wait for Yusei. She sat on a bench outside.

A few moments later, Yusei went into the parking lot and took off his helmet. Yusei was wearing his normal clothes, as well as Martha, due to them not being much involved with the hearing.

Yusei walked up and Akiza was still deep in thought.

"What will happen? Where will I go?" Akiza thought, "Surely they'll kick me out of the house as soon as they can."

"Akiza? Akiza?" Yusei called to her.

"Oh," Akiza said in a surprised tone, "I didn't see you there."

Yusei sat down next to her.

"Akiza, I didn't forget my promise," Yusei said, "There's a second helmet waiting for you when this is all done with."

Akiza's face didn't change. Yusei sighed.

"Akiza."

He wrapped his arms around her and put his hand under her chin. He turned and tilted it, so that she would look at him.

"I don't know what's bothering you so much, but no matter what, my feelings for you won't change."

Akiza smiled a little bit. Yusei smiled too.

Yusei then looked at his watch.

"Well, it's almost time," Yusei said as looked into the afternoon sky, "Lets head inside."

Akiza and Yusei got up and went inside the courthouse.

They got inside and Leo, Luna, and Martha were sitting in the front row on the right side. Akiza and Yusei sat by them.

A few minutes later, the judge came in and they all rose. He was an older gentleman, had glasses, and gray hair.

"Okay," he said, "You can all be seated."

They all sat down.

"So, we're hear for a custody hearing of 3 people. Whoever those three are, please raise their hand."

Akiza, Leo, and Luna raised their hands.

"Why don't you two come up here first?" the judge asked as he pointed to Leo and Luna.

They both ran up. They sat in the witness box, which had a long bench to sit on. They both settled in, comfortably, and looked up at the judge.

They then raised their right hands and swore to tell the truth.

The judge started asking them some simple questions, like their names and where they had first lived. He wrote the information down on some papers in front of him. The best one was when he asked what word they'd use to describe the other.

"Caring," Leo said.

"Obnoxious," Luna said.

"Yea...what?" Leo asked.

"You're very obnoxious," Luna said.

"I am not," Leo shouted.

"Okay, that's enough," the judge said.

Then, after a few more questions, he turned to some more difficult ones. He tried to say them in a easier way for them.

"Okay, so what exactly happened with your parents?" he asked.

"Well, it seemed like, when we were little, they slowly started seeing us less and less," Luna said, "We'd see them everyday, then a few times a week, once a week, once a month, and soon not at all."

"So, who took care of you during this time?" the judge asked.

"It was usually the landlord. He'd check us about once a day. Our parents would pay him extra to take care of us. We then took care of ourselves, once we older," Leo said.

"So, when did you first start being left to take care of yourselves?"

"A few years ago," Luna said.

"So, why did they leave you two alone in the first place?"

"They said it was for business, when it first started, but that was many years ago," Leo said, "I think that they didn't like having to take care of kids."

"I have to agree with Leo," Luna said.

"Have you tried to contact them in some way?"

"We got the last phone number they had," Luna said, "It's no longer in service. I looked for them on the internet, but nothing's came up."

"I see," the judge said.

He paused for a moment to rub his chin.

"Since there's nothing for them keeping you, are you sure that you'd like custody of Leo and Luna?" the judged asked.

"Yes," Martha said.

"Okay," they judge said. He took out a stamp and ink pad from his pocked. He inked, stamped, and signed the papers.

"I now pronounce that you are in official custody of Martha," the judge said.

Leo and Luna happily got up and ran back towards the row that their three friends were sitting in. Akiza hugged them, but had a nervious look on her face.

"Okay, so you're next?" the judge asked looking towards Akiza.

Akiza nodded and stood up.

She sat down and looked at her friends. They all had big smiles on their faces. Akiza could only imagine what would happen when she told them.

_Akiza Imagines_

"I have...psychic powers," Akiza said.

They all gasp. They twins wrapped their arms around one another.

"Leo! I'm scared," Luna said.

"Don't worry! I'll protect you from that witch," Leo said.

"Well, I don't want someone with powers that could hurt me or my family. You're not allowed to take one more step in my house," Martha yelled.

Yusei just got up and walked down the aisle.

"Yusei! Where are you going?" Akiza asked.

"Away from the witch," Yusei said coldly.

Akiza started to cry.

_End Imagine_

"Okay, lets get started," the judge said as Akiza snapped out of her imagination.

He asked her some of the same questions that he asked Leo and Luna. He then got to the one that she feared the most.

"So, why did your parents abandon you?" the judge asked.

Akiza looked down. She glanced up at her, at what she thought was about to be, her former friends.

"It's because...it's because of my powers," Akiza said sadly.

"Powers?" the judge thought.

"Powers?" Martha thought.

"Obnoxious?" Leo thought, "Oh wait...powers?"

"Powers?" Luna thought.

"Powers?" Yusei thought.

"Psychic powers," Akiza finished.

Everyone in the room, gasped.

A/N: Ugh! Cliffhanger! I hate them as much as you do! Hope no one's mad! I had two tests to study for and I didn't want this taking up all my study time. Please Review!
