CHP 1: The eye-catching New Students

A boy was walking towards Domino High, with his gang right beside him. (A/N: Can you guess who it is?)

He had tri-colored, star-shaped hair, defying Newton's law of gravity. It was also outlined with red. His eyes were crimson gems, piercing through everyone's soul. His skin was smooth and pale. He was short for average height, making people mistake him as a primary school student. He was Yami Kaiba. (1)

His gang consisted of Josephina Wheeler, Joey for short, Seto Kaiba, Bakura Boyuk, Marik Boyuk, Tristan Taylor, Duke Devlin, Hayashi Mitsuru Kotto, short formed , Mitsu, Teino Rui, mostly known as Rui, Rauja Ei, all call her Rei, Mai Valentine, Serenity Wheeler, the sister of Joey, and Tea Gardner.

When they reached the school gates, whispers and murmurs started to elaborate.

Yami and his gang were the popular kids, except for Tea, because she came along in the middle of their second year as seniors.

The gang rolled their eyes at the pointing fingers and glances they were receiving. It was normal for them, and sometimes, it annoyed them to no end. Being popular has its own perks and downfalls.

They all had the class, and so they went into class. They sat down and made small talk, allowing time to pass by them.

The bell rang, signaling the start of class. The teacher walked in and called the class to order.

The students smiled slightly, seeing that their teacher was Miss Lim (A/N: Yup! She is actually one of my school teachers, and she is really great! Although she is actually a Mdm. -_- Everybody loves her! She's a really great teacher, and I'm gonna miss her after I graduate.)

Miss Lim was known in the school, as she was kind to almost everybody. Even if you are a trouble student, she would treat you equally.

"Okay, class, today we have a new student, so please make her feel welcomed!" the teacher said cheerily.

Whispers like 'I wonder if she's cute', 'Do you think she's a slut' or 'Is she rich' were heard throughout the class, and Miss Lim didn't like her students being talked about, so she called the class to order once again.

"You can come in now, Miss Heba." the teacher informed, looking at the door.

A girl came in, wearing neat uniform. She had slightly tanned skin, and long hair. Her hair was black, outlined with purple, and blond bangs framed her angelic face. It was also tied into a pony tail. She had amethyst eyes that glittered like jewels in the sunlight.

"Please introduce yourself, Miss Heba." Miss Lim ordered politely.

"Heba Utsukushi. I'm 15 years old. And, yes, I skipped a grade." The girl known as Heba introduced.

[Yami's POV]

I feel like I have an connection to her. Somewhat like a brother-sister relationship. I just don't know why.

I feel like the name's familiar as well. Why do I feel this way?

I sighed deeply.

'Yams? You alright?" Joey asked.

Oh shit! Joey noticed! What do I do? What do I do?!

Okay, calm down, Yami, and act normal. Oh! Whatever! Just tell her the truth! It couldn't hurt, right?

"Nothing, I just feel like I once knew her. And before you jump to conclusions, I also feel like I had a brother-sister relationship with her once. Do NOT get the wrong idea." I warned Joey.

"Relax Yams. I'm not."Joey answered as she shook her hand. I gave out a sigh of relief.

{During recess}

Rumors about Heba were floating all about in the school.

Murmurs such as 'She's cute', 'She's kind' and other things about her were coming out of students' lips. It ticked Yami off. Not in the way as a lover, but in a way of a brother.

Tristan, Duke, Serenity and Mai were going around school, trying to get the latest news, so they wouldn't fall back in fashion or such.

Heba was sitting under a Sakura tree, eating her lunch that was contained in a cute bento. She ate her lunch with a slight smile on her face. If someone was just walking by, they wouldn't notice the smile, so that was how small that smile was.

The gang, curious of the newcomer, wanted to know her, so they decided to invite her to lunch, but they didn't know who would walk to her, and propose the invitation.

"So, who's gonna give the invite?" Bakura asked, leaning against a Sakura tree, his arms crossed in front of his chest.

"Joey?" Tea suggested.

Joey's eyes widened, and she exclaimed, "Hell no! It's not like I have anythin' against her, but I've got that feelin' that I don't wanna mess wit' her. So, No."

Marik suddenly smirked at Yami's way, making him worry. He said, "I think that Yami's the most suitable."

Yami's eye widened at the confession. But, he tried to keep it cool, as he said calmly, "What makes you say that Marik?" His tone was calm, too calm.

"You're our leader. And both of your hairstyles are similar. Ya both got star-shaped hair." Marik explained, a snicker on his tanned face.

"So you're judging me by my hairstyle?" Yami asked, crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes.

"Yup!" Marik answered, smiling mischievously.

Bakura snickered as Yami twitched his eyebrows, annoyed. Wanting to taunt their leader more, Bakura added, "So, who votes that our leader proposes the invitation?"

Yami's eyes widened, which then narrowed, since he was glaring at the white-haired teen.

Everybody raised their hands, except for Tea, since she had a crush on the leader, and she didn't want that girl to develop feelings for her Yami.

Yami looked at his gang. Did they betray him?!

Yami sighed, as he grumbled a 'Fine', and went towards the direction of Heba.

When he was in front of Heba, he scratched his head, and gave the invitation.

"Hi! I'm Yami Boyuk. Would you like to have lunch with me and my gang?"

The ones that were silent through out the conversation, Rui, Mitsu and Rei, smiled knowing Heba's answer.

A/N: Yes, this is a cliffhanger. I know that a lot of you will be like, WWWHHHHYYYY?!, and are planning to kill me, but if I'm gone from this world, who would continue this story?
But, I will update as soon as possible, although most of you won't believe me since I updated this so late…
Which is what I apologize for. I was busy getting ready for my school's annual Sport's Day, 'cause I took part in performing. I thank you all for the support you gave me.

Also, here's a small gift as apology, I would like to inform you that I've already planned a sequel for this story after I finish it. Again, thank you for the support that you guys have given me. *Bows*

Until we meet in the next chapter. Bye~
