This story does contain some OOCness. I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh or it's characters. I only own my OC, Lyrik.
It's been a week since Lyrik moved to Domino City and all is good. Slowly but surely, she's been warming up to the gang but she was already considered a good friend in their books.
Ding Dong. Ding Dong.
Before answering the door, she closed up her textbook. "What are you doing here Tea? I wasn't expecting visitors." She stepped outside and let the door close behind her.
"Me and the guys were planning on going to this fair that's in town for a few days. We wanted you to join too." Before Lyrik could deny her request, Tea cut her off "Before you say no, it'll be really fun and I know you'd enjoy it. Please!" Tea put her hands together and Lyrik said in defeat. "Fine. When are we leaving?"
"Right now." Tea grabbed her hand and pulled the surprised auburnette with her. "Wait I need my money." Lyrik pulled her hand from Tea and quickly got some money from her purse. Waiting around the corner were the rest of the gang.
"Good to have you on board Lyrik. I thought you wouldn't come." Joey said jokingly with his hands resting behind his head. "Lets go so we can have a good spot in line." Tea announced, leading the group towards their destination.
Lyrik walked beside Yugi. "So how do you like Domino City so far?" Yugi asked, looking up to Lyrik. "I like it here. More than expected actually. You guys are the icing on the cake though." Lyrik smiled slightly and Yugi rubbed his neck with a light blush.
After some time passed by, Joey announced that they have made it to the area.
Everywhere you turned, individuals were either at the booths or surrounded by the food stands. Little children held their mothers hand with one hand and held cotton candy in the other. Couples were holding hands and friends were laughing. Everyone was just having a good time. Lyrik and the rest of the gang paid for their wristbands so they could get on all the rides for free.
"Bet I can get score more bottles than you Tristan!" Joey challenged, pointing towards the ring throwing booth. "Oh you're on Joey," Tristan and Joey raced towards the booth to begin their competition. "I'll be the judge!" Tea ran after them.
"I guess it's just us two," Yugi said and Lyrik pointed towards the Ferris wheel, "Would you like to get on that with me? You don't have to if you don't want to though."
"Oh no, of course I want to," Yugi quickly said and lead her towards the ride.
After standing in line around fifteen minutes, it was finally their time to get on. Lyrik climbed in on one side and Yugi sat on the side directly in front of her. The first few minutes were silent. Right when Lyrik looked out the window, that's when Yami appeared beside Yugi. The auburnette glanced at the other guy with his arms crossed. She automatically assumed he climbed in after Yugi but something was off. Maybe her eyes were playing tricks but why did he look a bit transparent? 'Why is he staring at me?' She thought to herself and looked out the window again.
"With a lady that looks like this, you shouldn't waste away the moment Yugi," Yami looked at his shorter look-a-like and adjusted his sitting position. Lyrik's cheeks turned noticeably red when she heard him say that. She looked at him and said, "I hope that's a compliment."
Yugi and Yami quickly shot their attention towards her. "Who are you talking to?" Yugi asked, noticing she was looking in the Pharaoh's direction. "I'm talking to him," Lyrik pointed towards Yami "I didn't know you had a twin brother Yugi." The auburnette rested her hands on her lap. Yugi and Yami repeatedly looked at each other then back at Lyrik.
"So you're saying you can see me?" The surprised Yami pointed to himself.
Lyrik nodded slowly, "Why wouldn't I?" She asked, clueless as to why they were acting like this.
"This is weird. How can she see you?" Yugi whispered to Yami and the taller version shrugged. Yugi cleared his throat in preparation to explain, "This may sound crazy but what I'm about to tell you is the truth." Before continuing, Yugi tried to think of a simple way to put it. "The reason we were surprised you could see him is because he's a spirit that inhabits this puzzle." Yugi lifted the millennium puzzle from his neck, letting Lyrik examine it. "He was an Egyptian Pharaoh thousands of years ago."
Lyrik looked at Yami and back to Yugi in slight disbelief. "Well that explains why I can see through him." She chuckled awkwardly. You don't meet a Egyptian spirit everyday, so Lyrik didn't know what to say.
Yugi's millennium puzzle began glowing a bright light. After the light disappeared, Lyrik opened her eyes to see Yami sitting in front of her. He softly grabbed her hand, "I didn't properly introduce myself. You can call me Yami. It's a pleasure to finally be talking to you." He placed a kiss on top of her hand which made the redness return to her cheeks. "Uhm, you too," Lyrik quickly snatched her hand away.
The ride had came to an end and Lyrik stepped out of the Ferris wheel followed by Yami. Instead of looking awkward, she tried her best to act natural. "Let's get some Ice cream Yug- Yami." Lyrik grabbed Yami's hand, pulling him towards the ice cream stand. "Two strawberry cones." Lyrik reached the man her money and received the ice cream, "Here you go." She handed one to Yami and began licking it. Yami watched the auburnette for a few seconds before taking a bite out of his.
"Oww mommy, it hurts!" A little girl held her scrapped knee, calling for her mother.
The moment that happened, a sudden pain shot through her body. Lyrik dropped her ice cream on the ground and held herself up on one knee. "It hurts" She said and visible tears could be seen rolling down her cheeks. Yami rushed to her side, "What's wrong? Are you okay Lyrik?" He placed a hand on her back and tried to get a clear visual of her face.
"Oh honey! Are you alright? Mommy should have kept a closer eye on you." The mother picked the little girl off the ground and carried her away.
The pain from Lyrik's body faded and she slowly looked up, "Yeah I'm fine I think. I have no idea what that was." Yami helped the teen up and Lyrik wiped her tears. Yami looked at her with a raised eyebrow, "I can take you home if you wish." Lyrik shook her head, "I'm okay, I promise". She shot him a reassuring smile.
For the rest of the day, the gang stuffed their faces and played every single game there was to offer. Yami made sure to keep an eye on Lyrik as well.
"Well guys, today was fun but it's getting late," Tea stretched while she let out a big yawn. Everyone agreed and said their farewells.
"Do you need an escort home?" Yami asked Lyrik after the other members left. "I think I'll be okay. Thanks for the offer though." She gave him a quick side hug before turning around and leaving. After she disappeared from his vision, Yami went home.
On Lyrik's way home, she came across the guy that attempted to flirt on her first day. "Well if it isn't Ms. King. Funny seeing you around here." The smirk that grew on his face was creepy and uncomfortable to look at. "So did you decide to take my offer?" With every step he got closer to Lyrik, the further she would step back until she was backed into a wall. He placed a finger on her chin and lifted it up until her amber orbs and his brown ones met.
As soon as he was close enough, Lyrik butted her head against his. Just as she was about to take off, he grabbed her ankle which resulted in her falling. When he made his way towards her, a dark voice warned, "I suggest you let her go. Or you may get sent to a dark place." A whitenette emerged from the darkness. In Lyrik's eyes, he was the scariest person she's seen yet. Or maybe it was because the darkness makes a lot of things look scary. Once the guy heard him say 'a dark place' he assumed he was talking about the shadow realm. He quickly let go of the auburnette and stood up. He's heard a lot of stories about that place. Whether they are true or not, that was beyond him but he didn't want to stay to find out. The whitenette smirked as the the guy cowered in fear.
"You shouldn't be out here. Especially this time of night. Anything could happen." The male pulled Lyrik up from the ground. Before he walked away he told her to, "Hurry up and leave".
He didn't give her anytime to give him thanks but she heard his advice loud and clear. With that, Lyrik rushed home.
