Chapter 38: The One-Two Turn Kill!
In the night, Yusuke was carrying some a box out of his apartment and made his way up the stairs. With each step he was determined to remove most of the things from his old life, as for the pictures with him and Keiko, who he believed that didn't care about him at all, were given to Kari and Kira. Kari tried to talk some sense into Yusuke, but to no avail.
Yusuke made it to the top and dropped the box, where the other boxes that he sent. He dusts off his hands and formed his right finger to a gun-like point and aimed at the box, "Yusuke!"
Yusuke turned to see Botan on her oar, flying towards him and landed, "Hey Botan, long time no see!" he greeted
The blue haired reaper looked at the piles of boxes, "Yusuke, what are those?" Botan asked, pointing at the boxes.
"Well, there boxes of junk from my old life, that's for sure," Yusuke replied sourly
Botan walked towards the boxes and begun to open them and she was surprised, "Oh my……" what she saw in the boxes were clothes and anything that relates to porn and she glared at Yusuke, "You really are a pervert!" she barked as she whacked the black haired boy on the head with her oar.
Yusuke rubbed his head and glared back at Botan, "Well, not anymore," he said, "The Yusuke Urameshi that you once knew is long gone."
Botan raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"
"I mean the punk, pervert, spirit detective, macho, cocky, loudmouth, irritating, obnoxious, stupid, idiot, foolish, arrogant, big headed, childish, gullible, rebellious and sarcastic Yusuke Urameshi is dead, finished, in other words it's over!"
Botan made her mouth to an 'o' shaped, "And you would throw everything away."
"That's right," Yusuke said.
"And does Keiko know this new you?"
Yusuke gave Botan a dark look, "Don't…Ever…Say…HER…Name…when…I'm…around…again!" he seethed
Botan was a bit scared of Yusuke's face, "Let me guess the two of you got into a fight, again?" her question was answered when Yusuke blasts away the boxes with his spirit gun.
Botan took a few moments to get out of shock on what Yusuke has done, "Some of the things that she gave me were gifts and I want get rid of every single one of them." He seethed
"What happened?" Botan asked
Yusuke walked away from Botan, wordlessly, "Yusuke, I'm sure whatever happened between you two can be solved." She said, but got no feedback.
Kagome was studying her dueling Deck and couldn't wait for the next day, which was the dueling part of the entrance exams to Duel Academy. She knew that she'll win for sure. She didn't know if she couldn't fall asleep because she was too exited to sleep.
"Excited, aren't ya?" came a feminine voice
Kagome turned to see Yumi floating by her, "Oh Yumi, yeah, I just can't wait to leave here and hopefully forget about you-know-who."
"Oh you mean Dog Boy," Yumi said, "Oh there's a message from Saiou that you should hear."
Kagome blinked twice, "A message……"
"Kagome, how are you, my dear," came a masculine voice in Kagome's head
"Saiou, I'm fine," Kagome said, with a smile, "So what's the message that you wanted to give me."
"Well, it's about Inuyas……"
"Saiou, I don't want to hear HIS name, anymore," Kagome snarled, "Just refer him as Dork, Loser, Motherfucker, Dweeb, Jerk, Idiot, Bastard, Inutrasha, Jackass, Mutt Face, Dog Face, Dog Boy take your pick and if you have anymore, then be my guest."
Saiou cleared his throat, "Yes, about him well……Kagome, you may want to sit down for this."
Kagome sat on her bed, waiting for Saiou's words, "Well…the half breed is in this time."
Kagome's eyes shot wide opened as she jumped off her bed, "WHAT!!" she wailed, which got Yusuke and Kira bursting into her room, "Kagome, are you okay?" Kira asked
"Yeah, we heard a scream……" Yusuke added
Kagome looked at her cousins as a sweat-drop appeared at the back of her head, "Ye…yeah…I'm fine." She said, "Just got a message from a friend online." (AN: Kagome has a computer in her room. Kira knows that Kagome's a reincarnation of a priestess and doesn't know about Sartorious, yet. In case you guys don't know this, Saiou is really Sartorious)
"Sooth move……" Yumi said, rolling her eyes and moving her right hand in a straight line.
"Hey Kira, mind if I talk to Yusuke for a sec?" Kagome asked
Kira shrugged, "Sure…." She walked out the door and closed it on her way out.
"Okay, what's up?" Yusuke asked.
"You remember the bastard, who left me for that clay pot?" Kagome snarled.
"Yeah."
"Well, he's here in this time."
"Huh!?! But didn't you seal up the well!" Yusuke gawked.
"I did, but somehow he got into this time," Kagome said.
"Well, look at it this way," Yusuke said, "At least that he doesn't know where you are right now."
Kagome sighed, knowing that Yusuke was right.
"Augh!" Keiko screamed as she threw the fiftieth paper ball away and pulled her hair, "Damn it!" she cursed slamming her fists onto the table of her desk. She didn't understand why she has to go through with this for just one guy. She sighed, a guy who she known since childhood and has loved and hurt. She feels bad about and wants Yusuke to know how much she's sorry and loves him.
Keiko remembered all the time that Yusuke had to apologize to her for either bailing out on their dates in the middle of them or never showed up at all and make it up for it. Yusuke always try to get in many ways to make her smile, but when she betrayed his trust by kissing another guy and Yusuke saw it, she feared that Yusuke would hate her for all eternally. She didn't want to lose him, like this. She kept blaming herself for this, despite Kari, Zane, Syrus and her parents telling her that it wasn't her fault that it didn't happened.
She gazed at the jewelry box, where the locket that Yusuke gave her. She didn't what to wear it, yet till Yusuke forgives her, which could take some time to do. If it was the other way, she'll never let Yusuke near her for a month or two.
She knew that Yusuke would try avoid her, she would try to talk to him and wouldn't expect him to forgive her after a month. She could try tomorrow morning during his entrance exam, but she knew that Reginald would try to stop her.
"Keiko, Syrus is here!" called out her mother
The brunette looked the door, with a fake grin as Syrus walked into the room, "Hey!" he greeted
"Hey, what brings you here?"
"Nothing," Syrus said, "So, you've gotten the chance to talk to Yusuke?"
Keiko sighed sadly, "No, I haven't," she replied, "I've wanted to call him and then talk about what happened, but he'll probably hang up on me."
"Why don't you talk to him in person tomorrow?" Syrus asked, "He'll probably would listen to what you have to say."
"Easier said then done, Sy," Keiko said, "Yusuke probably hates me, now, not that blame him. You know he gave me a locket that day, but I chose not to wear it until Yusuke forgives me."
"Keiko, this is Yusuke Urameshi that we're talking about, the one's who's been our friend, since childhood," Syrus said, "I don't think that Yusuke he'll ever hate you in……" Syrus's eyes went into shock when he looked outside, "F…fly…w…woman."
Keiko looked at the blunette with uncertainty, "Uh! Sy!" she waved her hand into Syrus's face, "Earth to Syrus!"
Keiko followed Syrus's gaze towards her window and found Botan there floating on her oar, "Botan?" the brunette walked towards the window and opened it for Botan to get in.
Keiko turned her gaze back at the empty spot where Syrus was, "Sy! Syrus!" the two girls looked over to the side where Syrus was cowering, "Uh! Syrus." Keiko went over to touch the blue haired boy's shoulder, which in return Syrus was jumping in fear.
"Okay what kind of……" Keiko covered Syrus's mouth with her hand, "Syrus, not so loud!" she snapped, "Now calm down."
Syrus was breathing calmer with every second, "Now when I let go of your mouth, you promise not to scream."
Syrus nodded as Keiko removed her hand from his mouth, "Syrus, there's an explanation for this," Keiko said, "Now don't freak out, again. It happened after Yusuke's supposed death……."
-45 minutes later-
"And that's what happened," Keiko explained
"I see," Syrus said, "But I don't see how she's the deity of death." He added, pointing to Botan, "I mean how this girl could be the grim reaper?"
"I get that occasionally," Botan said, "Now the reason why I came here was about Yusuke."
"What's wrong?" Keiko asked, with worry
"Yeah, what's up?" Syrus added
"Well, I spot him on his apartment complex throwing away everything that has to do with his relationship with you." Botan replied, pointing at Keiko.
The brunette knew why this was happening and wasn't surprised, "He hates me!" she moaned, "I know it."
Botan raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?" she asked
"Well, a month ago, Yusuke was supposed to meet me at the park to watch the fireworks display for the Japanese Independence Day. Yusuke told me that he'll be late to show up, because of Seto Kaiba. As I was waiting, Reginald Haga shows up and tells me that he loved me, but I was with Yusuke. Afterwards, Reginald forces a kiss to me and I just gave up resisting, then Yusuke shows up and saw it and broke up with me!" Keiko explained then bursting into tears and Botan puts a hand onto her shoulder, "There, there…" she said.
"I've spent some time writing apology letters to him, but I can't seem to make it express my feelings for him," Keiko cried.
"It wasn't your fault, Keiko," Botan said.
"Then, whose fault is it then?" Keiko barked, "It's certainly isn't Yusuke!"
"No one is saying that," Syrus said
"That's right," Botan said, "It was that boy's fault! Why would he say that he loves you when you already with Yusuke?"
"Speaking of that, that creep, Reginald, hasn't leaved me alone, since that day," Keiko said, "So far, my father, Kari and Zane tries to protect me for him and as soon as Yusuke knows the truth, no doubt he'll teach him a lesson!"
"Speaking of Yusuke, there's something strange about him," Syrus said
The two girls looked at the blunette, "What's wrong, Sy?" Keiko asked
"Well, ever since that duel with Kaiba, Yusuke has been getting bad dreams and been losing every duel at Kaiba's place."
"That's the exact same thing that happened with Kagome!" Keiko gasped. "But why's the same thing that happened to Kagome is happening to Yusuke?"
Botan rests her chin onto her finger, "I don't know, first was Yusuke and Kagome getting hit by a wave of light, then bad dreams and losing every duel." She said
"And in those dreams of his, he's always muttering 'let me go you damned tools'." Syrus said.
"Could Yusuke's dreams be about the Spirit World Defense Forces?" Keiko asked, "And come to think about it, everytime Kagome comes over for the night and while she's sleeping she always mutters, 'Why Inuyasha?' and she sheds a tear from her eye. I'm guessing that Inuyasha was the name of Kagome's overly protective ex-boyfriend that always cheats on her."
"Why would Kagome be mixed in all this?" Syrus asked
"I have no idea," Keiko replied, "Plus, that jerk broke up with her."
"Next thing that'll happened is that Yusuke will change his wardrobe black," Botan said
"That's crazy, Botan," Keiko said, "There's no way that Yusuke would actually change his wardrobe black. Besides, it's not even his color."
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Yusuke was sending every clothes he owned in boxes, leaving his two sisters and mother bewildered, "Hey girls, any idea's what's your brother doing?" Atsuko asked, seeing her son walking out of his room with boxes
"No clue," Kari replied.
Just then, Kagome came into the hallway carrying a box to Yusuke's room and setting it on the floor and walking right back out, "Hey Kagome, what's are you and Yusuke doing?" Atsuko asked
"Well Yusuke's getting a change in his wardrobe," Kagome replied as she walked away from her aunt.
Atsuko shrugged, "Oh well, it can't be that serious," she said carelessly, "I'm sure it's just a phase that all teenage boys go through. See you kids later." She walked out of the hallway.
"Hey mom, where the hell are you going!?!" Kira asked looking at her mother's retreating back
"Kira, it's pretty obvious where's she's going," Kari replied for her mother.
"Is she getting herself drunk again!?!" Kira groaned and looked at Kari, who was walking into Yusuke's room and towards one of the boxes, "Hey Kari, what are you doing?"
"I'm trying to find out what our brother is up to," Kari opened up the boxes and her eyes widened, "Oh no" She went through everything in the boxes with disbelief, "Oh Jesus Christ…"
Kira walked cautiously towards her sister, "Kari, what is it?" she asked
Kari made way for Kira to pass, "See for yourself," she said.
Kira looked at the things that were in the box, which were black shirts and at the other boxes were black pants, black sneakers, black trench coats and black everything, "Gees Yusuke's changing his wardrobe!"
"Yeah and I think I know why," Kari said.
"What the hell are you two doing in my room?"
The two of the Urameshi triples turned to see their brother before them. Kari started the conversation, "Yusuke, I can understand that you're upset about what happened between you and……"
"Don't…say…HER…name…around…me!" Yusuke gritted his teeth with disgust, "Now get out, I'm going to change."
Kari sighed, "Yusuke, whatever it is you can…"
"Kari, we've been through this, nothing's going to change my mind about this," Yusuke snarled, "Now could the two of you leave because I'm about to change!"
"Yusuke, come on," Kari went over to her brother and placed her hand onto his shoulder, "I'm sure it…"
Yusuke slapped Kari's hand over from him and glared at her, "Hikari, I don't want to talk about this, right now, dammit!" he shouted and he whirled at his window with his arms crossed, in an obstinate way.
Kari knew that it was hopeless to talk to her little brother at moment, "Kira, let's leave," Kari said in a cold tone as she turned away from Yusuke and went to the door with Kira walking ahead. Kari stopped at her tracks and eyed over her shoulder to Yusuke, "Little bro, if you want to talk about it, you know where to find me." She said as she continued her steps away from the room.
Yusuke sighed as he felt guilty for taking his anger out on Kari, even though she had absolutely nothing to do with his situation with Keiko.
"Don't feel too bad, Yusuke,"
Yusuke turned to see Yumi, "Oh hey Yumi," he greeted with a smile, "What do you mean by not to feel bad?"
Yumi returned the smile, "I mean, Hikari doesn't know what's it like to have someone play with her emotions like you-know-who did."
"Hey Yumi, I've a got a question to ask, how long were you dead?" Yusuke asked
"About five years,"
"So if that so-called loser boyfriend of yours hadn't cheated on you then, you'll in your mid-twenties."
Yumi slight giggled, "Yeah, when I was alive I was considered the best duelist in my school. No one could beat me and had a way of finishing a duel in one-two turns. Dueling was my passion and I was going to be a professional duelist after I graduated high school, until that loser, who called himself my…augh boyfriend came had tore away my passion. The only one that came close to beating me was…HIM, that traitorous bastard."
"Gee sorry to hear that, Yumi," Yusuke said
Yumi smiled, "Say Yusuke, can I see your Decks?" she asked
Yusuke raised an eyebrow, "Why?"
Yumi looked in the air, innocently, "Oh! Just do a little modification." She said, "I did the same thing with Kagome's Deck."
"Okay."
Kira was at her desk, studying her Deck for the dueling exam tomorrow at the KC dome. Just then, a knock happened onto her door, "Come in!"
The door opened and Kagome's head popped inside, "Hey Kagome." She greeted
"Hey Kira, you want me to show you a trick?" Kagome asked, as she walked over to her cousin
"What kind of trick?"
"A way to win your duels in one to two turns."
Kira's eyes widened with disbelief, "Sure."
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
The next day came as Yusuke's alarm clock went off on 8:30 am. Yusuke got up from his bed and yawned, while knowing that the Duel Academy entrance exams are in two hours. Yusuke knew that he was a shoe-in to win, since he had a lot of help with his Deck by Yumi. Yusuke walked out of his room and towards the bathroom. After he got into the bathtub and stripped his pajamas away from him, Yusuke turned the water on splashing him. As soon as he wins his entrance duel, he'll start his new life as a Duel Monsters duelist in Duel Academy as for his past as a fighter, spirit detective and a boyfriend will be a thing of the past that he'll gleefully forget.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Let's see," Kagome was doing a last check on her Deck in her room, after getting Sarayashiki Junior High School uniform, "Looks like everything's in check!" Kagome placed her Deck into her Deck holder, knowing that she'll win her duel for sure thanks to Yumi. Afterwards, she'll plan to move on with her new life as a duelist.
After finishing his shower, Yusuke went to his room and found some things to wear, which was his old blue uniform. He always hated this uniform, because he looked like everyone else in his school. He missed his old green uniform, which was blown away because Keiko wanted, no forced him willingly to blast the uniforms, along with his other green uniforms, with his spirit gun. However, if he planned to get an approval from his teachers and principal from Sarayashiki Junior High to be Kaiba's apprentice and to go to Duel Academy, then he'd have to bear with it.
After he finished dressing up, Yusuke looked at his hair gel that was standing on his nightstand. He just remembered that the hair gel was left of his old life as a thug, boyfriend and spirit detective and he wanted to get rid of everything that was tied to his old life.
"Destroy it," came a feminine voice
Yusuke turned to see Yumi, behind him, "Hey Yumi."
"Yusuke, you want to get rid of ever want to get rid of everything tied to your old life, then you have to destroy every hair gel you own." Yumi explained, "I mean, some people from this district that know you as Yusuke Urameshi, feared street punk from Sarayashiki Junior High, are probably taking the entrance exam and might recognize you. That would make your new life, no better than your old one, because the students there will be very afraid of you."
Yusuke sighed, knowing that Yumi was right. If he has to everything from his old life as a street fighter then he has to destroy his hair gel. He realized what he must do. Yusuke grabbed every hair gel he owned and set it on the nightstand. He formed his right hand to a gun-like pose, "Spirit Gun!"
The light blue blast was fired from his right index finger and blew away the gel, reducing it to ashes.
Yumi looked at Yusuke with a smile, "So, how do you feel?" she asked
Yusuke gleefully smiled, "Normally, I'd feel absolutely horrible, but I don't give a damn anymore!" he replied. Yusuke's nose picked up something and was telling him that Kari was cooking breakfast. Yusuke knew that Kari's cooking skills was increasing ever since Kagome came by, which was a blessing to his stomach.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Keiko was pacing by her dresser, thinking of a way to get Yusuke to talk to her again. She really did miss him and want things to be the same again. She could just stay away from him and wait until he comes back from Duel Academy and he won't be mad anymore. On the other hand, if she doesn't see Yusuke today, there's a chance that Yusuke would find some other girl at Duel Academy and make that his new girlfriend and he'll still hate her for what she's done, which she vote against that.
Suddenly, she was knocked out of her thoughts by a slight tap on the window. Keiko turned to see Botan outside, waving at her.
The brunette walked towards the window and Botan's oar floated inside the room, "Botan, what are you doing here?" she asked. "And what are those?" Keiko pointed at the clothes that Botan was carrying.
Botan gave an innocent smile, "Well, I knew that you'll have a tough time getting Yusuke to talk to you and I've came to help." She said.
"How?"
"These clothes try them."
Keiko examined the clothes and her eyes widened, "Botan, what's the deal?"
"Well, this is Yusuke Urameshi were talking about," Botan said in a mischievous way, "The one, who at some occasion complements your clothes by flipping your skirt or groping you, which results you slapping him hard. So, if you put these clothes then…"
"…Yusuke wouldn't resist on trying anything perverted to me," Keiko finished, for once thanking God making Yusuke into a pervert on some occasions, "Botan, thank you! Once Yusuke tries anything, then I'll slap him then I get him to talk to me and we'll work everything out."
"And if it helps, I've got the perfume that would make his anger for you deteriorate."
"Great!"
AN: for those who are reading this chapter, I'm not having Keiko wearing anything revealing, just something cute enough for Yusuke to try something lecherous.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Kira raced to the dining room, where food was already set. Kari came out of the kitchen, "Morning, sis," she greeted, "Where's Yusuke and Kagome?"
"They're still getting ready," Kira replied and examined her twin, who was wearing a white sleeveless blazer with blue lines on the chest area, with a black sleeveless shirt underneath. She wore a blue mini skirt mid-thigh and blue boots, "Kari, don't tell me that's the school uniform for girls!" Kira said, with her disgust for skirts, especially mini skirts. She was wearing one, except she was wearing black leggings underneath.
"Actually, this is the uniform for girls in Obelisk Blue," Kari replied as she sat down on her chair, "Students in Ra Yellow and Slifer Red just wear blazers and sneakers representing their dorms, along with shirts and pants."
"If that's the case, then I'm hoping that I get up to Ra Yellow, because there's no way in hell am I wearing that!" Kira said, pointing at Kari's skirt
Kari rolled her eyes, "You're such a tomboy," she murmured as Kira took her seat.
"So what's for breakfast?" Yusuke asked as he walked out of the hallway.
"It's eggs and bacon, bro," Kari looked at Yusuke and her eyes widened, "Oh no," she murmured as she looked at Yusuke wearing a large black trench coat over his school uniform. She sighed, as she really wanted to talk some sense into Yusuke, but she couldn't but his stubborn personality won't falter. Kagome walked out of her room, holding her yellow backpack and KC2 Duel Disk attracted to her right arm.
Kagome sets her bag on the floor and sat next to Yusuke. The four teens begun their eating their breakfast.
A few moments later after the teens finished eating, there was a knock on the door. "I'll get it," Kira walked over to the door and opened it to reveal to be Syrus behind it, "Hey Sy," she greeted
"H…hi were here to pick you guys up!" Syrus said.
Afterwards, Syrus, Kagome and the Urameshi triples were out the door with their bags and walked downstairs. They made it to the Truesdale's green van and crawled inside and drove away from the apartment complex. Zane was at the passenger seat and looked at Kari, "Who you look great!" he complemented, making Kari blush, "Thanks, you too," she said as she looked at Zane's uniform which was a blazer similar to hers, except it had longer sleeveless and he wore a blue jumpsuit.
"Aw…look at this, young love," Mrs. Truesdale cooed, while making her eldest son blush, "Mom!" he seethed and Kari giggle
"Now Zane, there's nothing to be ashamed about being in a relationship," Mrs. Truesdale said. "So, when am I expecting grandchildren?" (A/N: Mothers!)
Zane and Kari's cheeks were blazing red, "Mothers…" Zane murmured
The van stopped and Yusuke looked at the place where the van stopped his eyes widened, "Uh! Mrs. T., why are we stopping here?" he asked, looking at the Yukimura diner, Keiko's home.
"We're picking up Keiko of course, silly. She wanted to see you guys off." Mrs. Truesdale said, "I mean, you didn't remember to say goodbye to your own girlfriend."
Yusuke felt a sharp jilt to his stomach, "Actually, we're not together anymore." He murmured, as Kari and Kagome looks back at Yusuke with worry
"Let's just hope that she doesn't try anything to stop us from our plans." Yumi said, "Before you speak, we can telepathically communicate with each other."
'Cool' Yusuke thought
"You said that this Keiko girl was the most popular person in your old school, right?" Yumi said, "Take it from a girl, Yusuke, she'll probably wear something foxy enough to get you to make up with her, along with a perfume that won't make you resist. I'd be careful if I were you."
Yusuke shook his head, 'Relax Yumi, she may be a horrible person but I don't think that she would even stoop that low enough to pull it off.' He thought
"Uh! Yusuke!"
Yusuke looked at Kagome, who had a worried expression on her face, "What is it?"
Kagome pointed at the side as Yusuke and Syrus turned and were shocked at what they saw.
"N…no way!" Syrus gasped
"S…she didn't," Yusuke added, with disgust
Keiko walked outside the diner, wearing a black shirt, along with a red denim skirt to the knee. She wore red sneakers and a black denim jacket. The brunette walked inside the van, "Hey guys!" she greeted
"See what I mean?" Yumi said, in a distressed tone
There was a million things that Yusuke was thinking and he shook those thoughts away from him, 'Come on, she could be going on a date with her new…augh boyfriend.' He thought
"Wow Keiko, you look great!" Kari complemented
"Yeah, what's the occasion?" Zane asked
"Just because I want to," Keiko looked over to Yusuke, who turned away from her. Keiko sighed in disappointment, knowing that Yusuke was still angry with her. She went over to the back seat as Syrus was about to move away, but Yusuke grabs his wrist, "Don't…move…there." He seethed as he pulled the blunette towards him, thus creating a blockage where Keiko was away from him as she sat by Syrus.
After the door was closed, the van drove off. Keiko looked over to Yusuke, who was looking at the window with an angry expression and noticing the black trench coat that he was wearing, "Hey Yusuke." She said, with a smile, "Nice trench coat."
Yusuke didn't respond at the brunette's greeting, actually he was trying to ignore her completely. Keiko frowned and looked away, knowing that Yusuke was still angry with her, "I see that you're didn't gel your hair today." She said, but got nothing from her ex-boyfriend.
Kari sighed with disappointment, realizing that her brother could be so obstinate at times, it's not understandable.
"Just give it sometime."
Kari looked over to Zane, who was looking at her, "I'm sure that he'll come around." He said
"I know, but it's just Yusuke could be so obstinate that it's unbelievable." Kari said, "And I hate to think about the worse that could happen to them."
"I know that things are not doing as well between them, but I'm sure they can take care of it."
"I guess that you're right," Kari sighed
After ten minutes of driving, the van approached the parking lot of the KC dome. There was a line of applicants waiting outside. The door opened and Kari, Kira, Yusuke, Keiko, Kagome, Syrus and Zane got out, "Thanks for the ride, mom!" Syrus said.
"Good luck, kids," Mrs. Truesdale waved as she drove off away.
Kagome looked at the building, "I guess that this is it, huh?" she said
"Yeah, so the hell are we waiting for?" Yusuke asked, as he walked ahead and the others falling him, while leaving the nervous Syrus behind.
Keiko looked back at the blunette with curiosity, "Hey Syrus, aren't you coming?" she asked
Syrus looked up at Keiko, "Uh! Yeah," he started to walk past Keiko and the brunette walked by him, "You're not nervous, are you?" Keiko asked
Syrus knew that Keiko was right, he was nervous about his duel, "Well, kinda…" he replied
"Syrus, you'll do fine and even if you mess up in the first round, you'll do fine." Keiko said, with a sincere smile
Syrus sighed and smiled back at Keiko, "Yeah, I guess you're right." He said, "So, any idea on how you're going to get Yusuke to listen to you?"
Keiko sighed sadly, "He's not talking to me, now." She replied, "But that doesn't mean that I'm going to give up."
The teens walked inside the KC dome, where other applicants were watching the dueling applicants and waiting for their turn to duel.
"Wow, it looks like there will be a large crop of students this year," Keiko said, with a smile as her eyes wondered to a girl with pigtails, dueling her proctor, "Hey it's Ryoko!"
"Yeah, and she's not doing so well." Came a voice
The others turned to see Mia walking towards them, "Hey Mia!" Keiko greeted
Mia turned her eyes to Ryoko's duel, "I really hope she can win." She said
"She will."
The others looked at Yusuke, weirdly, "What do you mean?" Syrus asked, "She's losing and she'll be boated out of the exam!"
Yusuke crossed his arms and chuckled lightly, "I know because it's a feeling." He replied
Ryoko was dueling her proctor and she had 1700 life points with no monsters, however, she had one face-down card out, while her proctor had 4000 life points and had a Panther Warrior out, equipped with Axe of Despair and just ended his turn.
"Boku no time, draw!" Ryoko drew her card and looked it and smirked, "I'll summon Space Mambo in attack mode!" a big flat fish with lights around its body appears on the field (ATK: 1700)
"That's a weak monster, applicant," her proctor said
"I know that," Ryoko said, "Now I'll play the spell card, Big Wave, Small Wave!" Just a huge tidal wave appears on the field and Yusuke is surprise at it appearance
"What does that card do?" Syrus asked
"It can destroy every water monster on Ryoko's side of the field." Keiko replied, "In replace summon another water monster from her hand."
"Now, my tidal wave will destroy Eria to summon Ocean Dragon Lord - Neo Daedalus in attack mode!" Ryoko declared, which were followed by sharp gasps from everyone, as the tidal wave washes Eria away and in her place came out a two-headed sea serpent, with red fins on the back and a blue and purple body. (ATK: 2900)
"I hate to tell you this but it's only weaker than my Panther Warrior." The proctor said.
"I know that's why I'm activating Megamorph to my dragon lord," Ryoko said, sliding the spell card to the slot, "Now the attacking power of my monster is doubled!"
"You're kidding!" the proctor gawked as the dragon lord roars as its attack strength skyrocketed (ATK: 2900) – (ATK: 5800)
"That thing has 5800 attack points!" Kira gawked
"Now Neo-Daedalus, attack Panther Warrior with Torrential Burst!" she declared, as the sea serpent shoots a water blast, from its mouth, at Panther Warrior, destroying him. The proctor grunts as his life points were servely damaged (PLP: 4000) – (PLP: 1200)
"Awesome, Ryoko damaged that proctor's Life Points!" Mia cheered
"Now that her life points are high than her proctor's, the side effect of Megamorph activates." Zane said
"That's right, now that dragon lord's attack gets its original attack points cut in half!" Kari said.
True to Kari's words, Ryoko's monster glowed red for several seconds as its attack strength is weakened servely (ATK: 5800) – (ATK: 1450)
"I'm pretty sure that she has a plan to win this round," Yusuke said.
Keiko looked at Yusuke with a puzzled look on her face, "How could you be sure?" she asked
Ryoko grinned, "It's time to end this duel, I'll activate my face down card, Ring of Destruction!"
A segmented iron ring appeared around Neo-Daedalus's throat like a collar, a large red appendage protruding from each section, "Now this trap destroys one monster and both players take damage equal to the attack of the destroyed monster!"
Ryoko's autokill ring destroys Neo-Daedalus. (PLP: 1200/RLP: 1700) – (PLP: 0000/RLP: 0250)
"All right, Ryoko got admission to Duel Academy!" Mia cheered
"See what we told ya!" Yusuke said with a proud expression on his face
"I guess that you were right, Yusuke." Keiko said, looking at Yusuke with a smile.
Yusuke said nothing at his ex-girlfriend's comment, as he crossed his arms to his chest and turned the other way, while thinking that it was only sarcasm. If Yusuke could read Keiko's thoughts, he'll just found out that how wrong he was and how big of a jerk he really is at the way he was treating Keiko.
Keiko frowned, 'Great, he's using my technique, when I'm mad at him.' She thought and she looked down, 'That's okay, I deserve it for hurting him.'
"I can't believe this," Kari muttered in annoyance of her brother's stubbornness, "He can't see what he's doing to poor Keiko."
"Don't worry, I'm sure that they'll work things out," Zane said. "I mean, this is a regular Yusuke Urameshi and Keiko Yukimura relationship. Sure they may argue at times and it usually ends with Keiko slapping Yusuke hard and calling him a jerk or a pervert and she hated him and wished that he would die, but they somehow work things out in the end and their relationship grows that way."
"Yeah, I guess but I'm getting the feeling that this fight isn't one of the fights that they had before," Kari said, with her arms crossed, "This could be serious."
Keiko eyed Yusuke, thinking of a way to do this, "So…are you n-nervous?" she stuttered but got no reply from Yusuke.
Keiko sighed, knowing that it's now or later, "Listen, Yusuke about……"
"Hey Urameshi!"
Yusuke turned to see Kuwabara, Botan, Shizuru, Yukina, Kurama, Hiei and Genkai walking towards him, "Hey guys!" he greeted, with a smile and his anger slowly deteriorating
"What's with the black trench coat?" Kuwabara asked, "Are you trying to copy Kagome?"
Kagome shot a death glare at Kuwabara, "What the hell does that mean, dumbass!?!" she barked, which made Kuwabara cower behind Shizuru, while Hiei found it entertaining of the fool's cowardly behavior.
"Koenma couldn't make it, because of some business that he needed to attend to," Botan said, "But, he wishes you good luck."
Yusuke was disgust at that name, because that pacifier sucking freak show tried to arrest him for doing nothing, "Yeah…whatever."
"Yusuke Urameshi, please report to Exam Field 3 for your duel exam," the announcer said, "I repeat, Yusuke Urameshi, please report to Exam Field 3 for your duel exam!"
"It looks like they're calling for you, Yusuke," Kurama said, looking at the black clad boy
Yusuke huffed as he walked away from his friends
"Yusuke!" Keiko called out.
Yusuke had a good mind to ignore the brunette, "Hey Yusuke, let's humor her for now." Yumi said
Yusuke smirked and icy cold glared over his shoulder to Keiko, "What?" he replied in a cold and venom tone
Keiko tried her best to look away from Yusuke's glare and gulped, "G-Good luck." She said.
"You actually think that I actually cared for you, a worthless street punk not to mention a pathetic half breed."
Yusuke narrowed his eyes and looked ahead, "Yeah, whatever." He murmured as he walked away with the bottom of his trench coat wavering in the air.
Keiko rubbed her left arm with her hand, 'This isn't going well.' She thought
Zane whirled around and walked away, with Kari noticing, "Hey Zane, where are you going?" she asked
"To get a higher view of the duels," Zane replied.
"Hey wait up!" Kari ran after her boyfriend.
Higher still, up in an overlooking observation room stood a fifteen year old girl wearing a similar uniform to Kari and had long dirty blonde hair, who was looking at Yusuke, who was walking downstairs, with awe, "Why does that kid look for familiar?" she asked
"Hey Alexis, long time no see." Came a voice
The girl known as Alexis turned her hazel eyes to two familiar faces, "Zane, Kari, how's the summer." She said
"It's been enjoyable." Kari said, "Zane and I are a couple now."
"Is that so?" Alexis asked, looking at Zane with sly, "That's great!"
"And we're watching my little brother's duel, right now." Kari said.
"You mean, Yusuke's enrolling," Alexis said, with surprise, "Your twin little brother, Yusuke Urameshi, the person, who couldn't duel to save his life and has a infamous reputation as the most feared street punk, terrible student and smart-mouthed person in Sarayashiki Junior High, is enrolling as a student to the top ranked dueling school in the world?! It's official, Hell has finally frozen over!"
"That's right, not only him," Kari said, "My cousin Kagome is enrolling as well."
"Oh yeah, Kagome, isn't she the one that people from her middle school call the 'sick girl'?" Alexis said.
"That's the one," Kari said. Zane and Kari knew about Kagome's adventures from the Feudal Era and if they say anything to Alexis, then she'll never believe it, "Plus, my twin sister, Kira is coming to Duel Academy."
Alexis raised an eyebrow, "But don't you have one twin?" she asked, pointing at Kari.
"I thought I did, but that bastard of a father of mine took her away from us, when we were babies." Kari said, with venom
"I see."
"Plus, my little brother, Syrus is enrolling as well." Zane said.
"Isn't he the one with a crush on Dark Magician Girl?"
"Yes!" Zane and Kari chorused
Yusuke walked to his exam field and his proctor appeared to be a young man with blonde hair, "Okay, son, please state your name," she said
Yusuke snapped to attention, "Yusuke Urameshi," he said
"Well Yusuke Urameshi, my name is Prof. Ben Davis and I'll be your dueling proctor for your exam."
With the committee stands, a man with a long blond ponytail, purple lips, wearing frilly blue robes studied Yusuke with interest, 'I can't put my finger on it, but that boy looks oddly familiar.' He thought
High up in the stands sat three Obelisk Blue students, "Hey Chazz, don't we know that kid?" the blue haired Obelisk asked
The spiky haired fifteen year old known as Chazz eyed Yusuke, "Yeah, we've seen that kid before, haven't we, Chazz," the brown haired Obelisk said
Chazz's eyebrow raised, 'Now that these numbskulls mention it, something is very familiar about that kid,' he thought, 'But it wouldn't matter though, even if he gets admission, he'll have to deal with the Chazz sooner or later.' Chazz smirked, 'When he does, he'll wish that he never thought about applying for Duel Academy.'
Yusuke gets out his deck from his holder and inserts it in his Duel Disk. Yusuke looks at Prof. Davis with determination, "Duel Disk, on!" his Duel Disk activates as Prof. Davis inserts his Deck to his Duel Disk and it activates.
"Let's Duel!" (DLP: 8000/YLP: 8000)
"Ore no time, draw!" Yusuke draws his sixth card from his Deck and looks at it, "I'll summon Marauding Captain and thanks to his special ability I can summon a four-star or lower monster from my hand and I choose Queen's Knight!"
In a blaze of light, a 15th century captain with armor and a red cape appears (ATK: 1200) and which was followed by a lady knight with blonde hair and red armor (ATK: 1500)
Ryoko walked up stairs and spotted her two friends at the top, "Great job, Ryoko!" Keiko commented
"Yeah, you really showed that proctor, who's boss!" Mia added
Ryoko smiled, "Thanks, girls," she said, "I heard that Urameshi is going to duel, next."
"Yeah, I hope that he'll do well." Keiko said, looking at her ex-boyfriend's duel and sighed.
"Boku no time, draw!" Prof. Davis draws his sixth card and looks at it, "I summon Luster Dragon in attack mode!"
A dragon with emeralds appears on the field (ATK: 1900), "Now Luster Dragon, attack Marauding Captain with Breath of Fire!" the proctor commanded, pointing at the captain
Luster Dragon blasts its attack towards Marauding Captain, destroying it. Yusuke (YLP: 8000) – (YLP: 7300) looks unfazed by the impact of the blast, "That ends my turn!"
"Ore no time, draw!" Yusuke said, drawing his card and looking at it with a smirk, "I summon King's Knight!" an orange-armored warrior stood aside Queen's Knight and held his sword at the ready (ATK: 1600), "And when these two knights are in play, I can automatically summon Jack's Knight!"
A blue armored warrior appears next to King's Knight with his sword ready (ATK: 1900), "Next, I'll play a spell card, The Allied Forces, which increases the attack strengths of my knights by 200, for each warrior type monster out on the field."
The three knights glowed light blue for a several seconds as they become stronger. Queen's Knight (ATK: 1500) – (ATK: 2100), King's Knight (ATK: 1600) – (ATK: 2200) and Jack's Knight (ATK: 1900) – (ATK: 2500), "Now Queen's Knight, attack Luster Dragon with Majestic Sword Swipe!"
Queen's Knight lunged at the emerald covered dragon and slashes it, once to destroy it. Prof. Davis grunts as he feels the impact of his destroyed dragon (DLP: 8000) – (DLP: 7800) and the female knight jumps back her owner's side, "Now King's Knight and Jack's Knight, attack him directly!"
The two knights lunged at the freaked out Prof. Davis and struck his waist and shoulder (DLP: 7800) – (DLP: 2700) and jumped back to their owners side, "Next, I'll play Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy my Spell Card!"
A typhoon appears and shreds Yusuke's spell card, which made his monsters weaker. Queen's Knight (ATK: 2100) - (ATK: 1500), King's Knight (ATK: 2200) – (ATK: 1600) and Jack's Knight (ATK: 2500) – (ATK: 1900)
"That doesn't make any sense," Kuwabara said.
"Yeah, why would Yusuke make a move like that?" Keiko asked
"I play the Spell Card Berserker Soul," Yusuke said. "After I discard my entire hand, I then draw cards from the top of my deck and send them to the Graveyard. If I draw a monster card, my Queen's Knight can attack one more time. If I don't, then Berserker Soul's effect ends." He slid his hand into the Graveyard and then took the top card from his deck. "I've drawn Dark Blade," he said, sliding it into his Graveyard. "Queen's Knight, attack! Majestic Sword Swipe!"
The warrior leapt across the field and slashes Prof. Davis's torso. The proctor winced from the attack (PLP: 2700)-(PLP: 1200)
Yusuke drew another card from his deck. "D.D. Assailant," he announced. "Finish him off! Majestic Sword Swipe!" The red knight rushed towards the proctor for one last attack and slashed Prof. Davis's shoulder (PLP: 1200) – (PLP: 0000).
High up in the stands, everyone was stunned. He had managed to win the duel in just two turns, without any problems…
"N-n-no freaking way!" Kuwabara and Kira gawked
"Yes, it's unbelievable." Kurama said.
"Y-Y-Yusuke…h-he manage to finish the duel in just two turns," Keiko gaped
Genkai was in shock, 'This can't be the same dimwit that appeared at my temple for the first time, a year ago.' She thought, 'That's very strange, no matter how good of a duelist he is, Yusuke couldn't have planned that on his own. Meaning, someone's helped him and it couldn't be Seto Kaiba.'
"Yeah, that's really amazing." Ryoko commented with disbelief
"What kind of training did Kaiba give him?" Mia asked
"No way!" Syrus gaped
Kagome smirked, 'I guess that Yumi's tricking out our Decks really worked.' She thought
Alexis and Kari's mouth gaped open and Zane had a mixture of amusement and shock expressions on his face.
The pony-tailed blonde man gaped in surprise, 'He's not good, he's magnificent!' he thought
The pony-tailed blonde turned to the faculty, "You, tell me, who's that boy's name!" he yelled, pointing at Yusuke.
"Yes, Dr. Crowler." The faculty looked through the files and pulled one out and opened it, "Yes, it says that this boy's name is Yusuke Urameshi, he's fifteen years old. Currently leaving with his unemployed mother, Atsuko Urameshi and the middle child of the Urameshi triples, Hikari and Kira Urameshi. His score on the written exam was an 87 and his grades from his old school Sarayashiki Junior High is pretty decent to say the least and got him into the Slifer Red rank."
Dr. Crowler screamed in mortification, 'That boy was that strong, and he was going to Slifer Red!' he thought, "Absolutely unacceptable, he won't be a Slifer Slacker for the year, he must be an Obelisk Blue no matter what!" he randomly screeched out. Scurrying around the stands in a panic, he sped off towards the arena.
Back in the stands, Chazz and his followers surveyed Yusuke with interest.
"Hey!" the brown haired boys yelled. "That kid's pretty good, ain't he Chazz?" At Chazz's silence, the other one mentioned, "Yeah, he's even better than you, Chazz." Suddenly, their leader shouted, "Shut up, you dorks! No one and I mean no one, especially that punk is better than Chazz Princeton! Besides, I bet that he couldn't pull that two turn move, again." They both quieted down.
Yusuke walked up to his friends, who were looking at him with surprise, "Hey guys, what's with the faces?" he asked
"U-Urameshi, h-how did y-you…" Kuwabara stuttered, "How did you pull a move like that!?!"
"Yeah, you finished that duel in just two turns!" Ryoko gawked
Yusuke shrugged, "It wasn't anything though." He said and smirked, 'Thanks for the tip, Yumi.' He said, eying the spirit behind him. Yumi gave a gleeful expression to Yusuke, "No problem, Yusuke."
"Excuse me, Yusuke Urameshi!"
The gang turned to see a tall man with blonde hair tied in a pony-haired style, purple lips, wearing frilly blue robes running towards Yusuke and panted. Yusuke tilted his head and couldn't decipher if he was either a guy or a lady, "You call for me." He said
The man stood up tall and looked at Yusuke with a smile, "My name is Dr. Vellian Crowler, Headmaster of Obelisk Blue Dorm and Department Chair of Techniques, here at Duel Academy and I saw your duel with that proctor and never in my years as a dueling educator that I've seen such a powerful duelist like you. Also, I've know about your older sister, Hikari Urameshi and she's possess raw skill, but you, my boy, could be even better. Now to get to the point on why I came to you, I want you, my boy, to be an Obelisk Blue student."
"But, I thought-", he was interrupted by the Obelisk Blue headmaster. "Never mind that, I know that you're still in Slifer and that your grades from Sarayashiki Junior High School wasn't that outstanding, but with you're dueling skills, you'll have no trouble making it to the Obelisks!"
Yusuke's eyes widened at Dr. Crowler's positive comment about him. Usually, teachers and students would shoo him away because of his grades, his mother giving birth to him and his sister at as teenager and his father, who he also resented as much as Kari and Kira did, leaving them when he was a baby. He was starting to like being a student in Duel Academy, already.
Yumi appeared by Yusuke, "Go ahead and take his offer, Yusuke." She suggested, "He may be a guy/lady, but looks can be deceiving. Plus, unlike those cretins that you used to call teachers from middle school, with the exception of Kuwabara and Syrus, who called your own mother a whore, for giving birth to you, Kari and Kira as a teenager and calling you names like 'worthless street punk', 'bastard child', 'spawn of a whore' or 'whore's son', this Dr. Crowler person could be a person that wouldn't look down on you, because of your domestic situations."
Yusuke could remember, like it was yesterday, on how he was treated, during his childhood, especially realizing the person, who he believed cared about him a little was only using him and playing with his emotions like it was a toy.
"You actually think that I actually cared for you, a worthless street punk not to mention a pathetic half breed." Keiko asked grinning evilly, "I was lying from the beginning. Playing with your heart. Hurting you in every way possible, but probably knowing you, you'd think this isn't real. Open your eyes to reality, dork. I hate you."
"Heh, don't worry Yusuke, this will be painless," Keiko began driving the knife further to his back with delight, "Now, I know why your father was gone, so he could be away from you and that pathetic whore you call 'mother'."
Hearing those words made Yusuke's heartbreak even worse than before and he clenched his fists, "Sure why not?" he replied, with a smirk
Dr. Crowler grinned from ear to ear at Yusuke's answer, "Thank you, Yusuke, my boy, I assure you, you won't be disappointed."
With that, Dr. Crowler turned heel and walked over from Yusuke, "Obelisk Blue!" Syrus gawked.
"That's the highest rank in the academy!" Keiko added and looking at her ex-boyfriend with disbelief, not only he was able to defeat his proctor in two turns, he was able to get Obelisk Blue, the highest rank in Duel Academy, the top dueling school in the world. She wondered, if Kaiba's training really did pull off, after all, but she wouldn't know until Kagome's duel comes.
"Kira Urameshi, please report to Exam 1 for your duel exam," the announcer said, "I repeat, Kira Urameshi, please report to Exam 1 for your duel exam!"
"Hey Kira, it looks like you're up!" Yusuke said, looking at the sister, besides him.
Kira nodded with affirmation, "Yeah, I am!" she said.
"Good luck, Kira," Kurama said, with a genuine smile, which made Kira blush a little and shook the thoughts from her head as she walked away, "Thanks, Kurama."
Kira walked downstairs and towards her assigned field, where her proctor was a young woman with brown hair, "Okay, honey, your name, please."
Kira snapped to attention, "Kira Urameshi, ma'am."
"Well, Kira Urameshi, my name is Prof. Miranda Lee and I'll be your proctor for this exam." The proctor inserts her Deck to her Duel Disk and it activates, "Ready?"
Kira inserts her Deck to her Duel Disk, "Ready?" (LLP: 8000/KLP: 8000)
"It looks like they're about to start." Yusuke said.
Kagome smirked, 'And I know how it's going to end.' She thought, 'Thanks for the tip, Yumi.'
"You guys flatter me, thank you!" Yumi gleefully responded
"Ore no time, draw!" Kira pulled the top card off of her deck and added it to her hand, "I'll summon Gilasaurus in attack mode!" Prof. Lee watched in astonishment as a thin, brown dinosaur appeared on the field. (ATK: 1400)
"And as you know, that was a special summon meaning I get to special summon another Gilasaurus in attack mode!" another thin, brown dinosaur appeared by his counterpart (ATK: 1400) "Next, I'll sacrifice both my Gilasaurus to summon Black Tyranno in attack mode!" the two dinos disappeared a surge of yellow light and in their place was a huge dark brown Tyrannosaurs Rex and roared loudly at its appearance (ATK: 2600).
"Awesome, she's summoned a monster with over 2000 attack points on the first turn!" Syrus commented.
"Next, I'll place a facedown and end my turn." Kira said as a card materialized behind her T-Rex.
"Watashi no time, draw!" Prof. Lee drew a card from her Deck and looked at it, "I activate two copies of Fiend Sanctuary, which allows me to special summon two fiend tokens!" two silver tokens appears on the field (ATK: 0000)x2, "Now, I'll sacrifice them to summon Zoa in attack mode!"
A huge blue ugly demon appears on the field (ATK: 2600), "Next, I'll equip it with Axe of Despair!"
An axe appears in Zoa's right hand and it glower and growled as it becomes stronger (ATK: 2600) – (ATK: 3600).
"Then, I activate Tribute of the Doomed, by discarding one card from my hand to the Graveyard, I destroy your dinosaur!" After Prof. Lee sends a card from her hand to the Graveyard slot, Kira's Tyranno is instantly destroyed, but Kira stood there while unfazed.
"Oh man! Kira's left with no protection!" Syrus gawked
"Now Zoa attack with Glimmer Strike!" Zoa sends a X-shaped blast at Kira, hitting her hard as her Life Points took a huge hard (KLP: 8000) – (KLP: 4400)
"It's the first turn and Kira's lost almost half of her Life Points!" Kari gawked, "This isn't looking well!"
Kira grinned, "Go face card, Infernal Tempest!" her face-down card opens up, "Now whenever I take 3000 points or higher damage, this card removes all monster cards from our Decks and Graveyards from play!"
"Why would you remove all of your monsters!?!" Prof. Lee asked.
"I don't get it," Kuwabara said and looked at Yusuke, "Hey Urameshi, why would Kira pull a move like that?"
Yusuke smirked, realizing what his sister is doing, "Oh! You'll see!" he sang
"Ore no time, draw!" Kira draws her card and places in her hand and pulls out another one, "I summon Tyranno Infinity!"
In a blaze of light, a Tyrannosaurus Rex appears in front of Kira (ATK????)
"Holy crap, now I'm beginning to see why Kira played that Infernal Tempest spell card!" Kari gawked
"Because she had Tyranno Infinity in her hand." Zane said.
"You're really going to love this part, teach, because my dino friend gains 1000 attack points for each dinosaur that's removed from the game and since I got all 30 dinos from play that's 30,000 attack points!"
Kira's dinosaur roared loudly as it becomes powerful (ATK????) – (ATK: 30,000)
"That's a whole a lot of dinos!" Ryoko gawked.
"So true!" Mia added.
"This could end like Yusuke's two-turn duel!" Keiko said.
"Now Tyranno Infinity attack Zoa with Dino Infinite Power Stump!" Kira commanded, pointing at Zoa as her dinosaur charged towards Zoa and stumped onto the demon, destroying it. Prof. Lee had withstood the impact (LLP: 8000) – (LLP: 0000).
High up in the stands, everyone was stunned. Like Yusuke, Kira had managed to win the duel in just two turns, without any problems…
"No way!" Kuwabara gawked
"Again!" Shizuru said, with disbelief
"And this time it was in one move." Kurama said.
Dr. Crowler screamed in shocking, "That girl managed to pull another two-turn win!" he screech and turned to the staff, "Don't just stand there, you whelps, find out who this girl is!"
The staff looked through the files, "Dr. Crowler, we found the girl's file and she's the sister of the boy, who pulled the two turn win, Kira Urameshi."
'So Hikari has two very special twin siblings!' Dr. Crowler thought and smiled, 'I must have that girl with her brother and sister.'
Chazz and his followers had their jaws dropped, "N-no fucking way!" Chazz gaped
Kira walked up the stairs and saw most of her friends, gaping, "Hey guys, did you like what you saw?" she asked, with a smile.
"L-l-Like! You're kidding, woman!" Kuwabara gawked.
"You pulled another two-turn move!" Genkai added
"That was amazing," Kurama commented.
Kira rubbed her head, while blushing, "Thanks." She said, "But I wouldn't have pulled it off if it wasn't for Kagome."
"No problem!" Kagome said, 'Though I wouldn't have pulled it off, if it hadn't been for Yumi.'
"I didn't think I'd see you guys, here!" came a feminine voice with an Australian accent
The others turned to see a sixteen year old girl with brown hair, tied to a long braid to her knees and she had three thick bangs on her forehead. Her eyes were piercing cobalt blue. She was wearing white sailor shirt with a blue skirt to the knee, with purple leggings to add.
"Catherine, long time, no see!" Yusuke greeted
Keiko felt a pang of jealously and anger at the way that Yusuke greeted this girl. She hoped that she wasn't too late to tell Yusuke the truth.
"Uh! Yusuke, who's this girl?" Syrus asked, pointing at Catherine and noticing Keiko's growing anger and jealously.
"She's a friend of Kagome and me," Yusuke replied
"Yeah, this is Catherine Maxwell," Kagome said, "She's was Kaiba's apprentices as well as Yusuke and me. These are our friends; the one with red head is Suichi Minamono, Hiei, Yukina, Botan, Kazuma Kuwabara and his sister Shizuru Kuwabara, Genkai, our childhood friends, Keiko Yukimura and Syrus Truesdale."
"Nice to meet you, Catherine," Syrus greeted
"Likewise!" Catherine gleefully responded and turning her gazing to the brown eyes of Keiko, "So, you must be Yusuke's girlfriend, boy are ya lucking!"
"Not anymore!" Yusuke said, with venom
Catherine's eyes widened and looked at Yusuke, "So, you're not…."
"Please excuse me…" Yusuke walked away from his friends with a gloomy expression.
Botan sighed, knowing that this would be even tougher than she originally thought.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Angry and enraged, Yusuke stormed downstairs, he just wanted to get away from HER as soon as possible.
"I was lying from the beginning. Playing with your heart. Hurting you in every way possible, but probably knowing you, you'd think this isn't real. Open your eyes to reality, dork. I hate you."
"You okay?" Yumi inquired, worried about the black clad boy
"Just peachy," Yusuke muttered, as he made it to the bottom and walked in the hallway, "Just needed get away from you-know-who, before I completely lose it."
"Yusuke!"
Hearing that voice made Yusuke angrier and quicken his pace, so he could get away from the brunette, who was running towards him. Yusuke heard the footsteps and quicken the pace more as he walked through the door to the one place that Keiko wouldn't get to him, the men's restroom.
Keiko stopped at the door and sighed, while cursing Yusuke for pulling this cheap trick on her, but what she was doing to him was just as worse.
An hour later, Yusuke opened the door and stepped out the bathroom, while expecting Keiko to leave. He walked away a good 5 feet from the door, remembering that Keiko, once pulled this trick on him, when she was so angry at him, and looked both ways to see if the brunette was gone.
The second he turned his back, going back to the bathroom, Keiko had appeared in front of the door with her arms crossed to her chest and staring him hard. She waited for an hour and had expected her ex-boyfriend to pull a similar trick that she had done to him, when she was angry at Yusuke. She anticipated that once she was gone, so Yusuke thinks, Yusuke could just waltz away from her. She was very smart, like that.
As Yusuke started walking away from his ex-girlfriend, but felt a tight grip to his wrist, "Please remove your hand from my wrist, Keiko."
Keiko mentally winced at cold tone of voice that Yusuke used, "Not until we talk."
Yusuke huffed, "We have nothing to talk about." He replied, "Now let go!" he yanked his wrist from Keiko's grip and walked away from her.
Keiko walked past Yusuke and got in front of him, "Yusuke, please, all I want to is…"
"You remembered when you said that you'll stay with me, even though that I've become a demon." Yusuke said, piercing through Keiko's eyes.
"Yes, I did that and I've meant every word about it, Yusuke," Keiko cried, looking at Yusuke's eyes, "I really do!"
"Yusuke, you're seriously going to believe a word that's coming from this little bitch's mouth!" Yumi yelled, glaring and pointing at Keiko, "Remember, the vision, Yusuke, once you let down your guard, she'll strike! She's using the same trick that she's been using all this years! Yusuke, I know that you're smarter than that! Since, both of you are going to different schools, Keiko feels that you served your purpose in life, to be her own personal tools of making herself look good in front of her teachers, like Saiou said. Saiou told you that, the bitch in front of you isn't trustworthy anymore. Keiko has always hurt you for no damn reason, because she knows that you wouldn't strike back! Keiko wants you to forgive her, just to destroy wants left of your pride. DO LET HER TO IT!"
"………Playing with your heart. Hurting you in every way possible, but probably knowing you, you'd think this isn't real. Open your eyes to reality, dork. I hate you."
Yusuke knew about the vision and they felt so real to him and finding it hard to believe Keiko's own words over it.

Not too far from the dome, a boy with brown hair and eyes was running through a park. You could tell he came from one of the local schools: He wore a charcoal gray uniform, a red T-shirt and sneakers.
"All right, I've got my Deck and I've got my gear and I've two minutes to spare for the entrance exams before I'm late!" he said, "Oh well, I guess that I won't get detention hall for being late!"
The boy ran pasts the people, "At your back!" he said as he runs into someone.
The boy feels onto his behind and rolls over to pick up his Duel Monster Cards, "Sorry!" he said.
"You're a duelist, aren't you?"
"Yep, I'm trying out for the academy!"
The person chuckled, 'This boy, he reminds me of Yusuke, except more innocence.' He thought as he went of his Deck, "You don't say."
The boy got up onto his knees, "Yeah." He looks at the person, he was a young man with multi-colored hair and violet eyes, "Hey, wait you're…"
The man interrupted the boy as he handed him a Duel Monster Card, "Why don't you take this? Something tells me that it belongs to you."
The boy takes the card, "Wow for real."
"Good luck," the man as he walked pasted the boys
"Hey wait!" the boy said turning to the man, "Thank you!" the boy bowed, "I'll make you proud!"
The man stopped and gave him thumbs up and walked ahead. The brunette looked at the card that the multi-colored duelist gave him, which appeared to be a Winged Kuriboh.
The boy screamed, "The exam!" he panicked as he picked up the pace, "I can't be the next King of Games, if I'm late for the games!"
