Hey everyone, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or its characters. I only own the story line and my own characters. I would love reviews, Thanks.
This a little story that shows not to steal homework, hope you enjoy. :)
Tuesday, October 4th 2011
It was a bright and sunny day in Domino City. Joey Wheeler and Tristan Taylor were walking to school; there was a silent tension as they talked about Dark Matter. Joey had blond shaggy hair and chestnut eyes. He was pale like most blonds are and wore the Domino High uniform; navy blue pants and a suit jacket to match and a white t-shirt. He was well built with a Brooklyn attitude and was five foot eleven. His childhood with the gangs of Domino City has taught him to be cautious, but all in all he isn't the brightest star in the sky.
His friend Tristan had brown hair on the sides of his short cut hair and dark brown hair on top that points to a point and his eye colour is the same. His teacher often made fun of it by saying he was a unicorn. Tristan wore the same school uniform with a beige top underneath his jacket. He is also well built with a tough guy attitude and was six feet tall. He grew up with Joey with the gang life always looking out for each other. He owns and rides a motorcycle and is an average student though he is often doing mop duty with Joey for the mischief the team creates.
Dark Matter though was no friend to the two gentlemen. They often referred to him as DM with anger. Dark Matter was a demon from five thousand years ago that their friends Yugi and Regan had gone against four days ago. He had short grey-black hair spiked out like a ring around his head with red eyes that had his pupils like black flames dancing across his iris and he had a goatee. The only thing that they had seen him wear was a black cloak, but they had a feeling that when he removed his cloak it will be nearing the end of the world. Dark Matter was a very bad guy who had tried to bring back his master from the dead, Zorcnecrophades. Joey and Tristan don't know much about him. But he had a serious crush on their friend's dead sister; which resonantly had moved to the modern day version of her.
"So, how do you think we can find that dude anyway?" Tristan asked with a hint of boredom.
"I don't have a clue, but when we do he'll get what's coming to him." Joey replied placing his fist in front of his face trying to show how tough he is. "Why?"
"Well it's been six months since anything strange has occurred like demons and magic." Tristan answered point blankly. "We have literally been bored out of our skulls with nothing interesting coming to kill us. Now out of the blue our dead friend comes back to tell us we have a demon to fight. To tell you the truth, I think we would have continued to grow up knowing we are missing a part of ourselves."
Joey nodded knowing what he meant. "Along with the demon our five thousand year old friend Atem is now part of the mortal world and alive, I don't think we could have reminded ourselves any more than that that we can continue to save the world. Plus on a bonus we have another Millennium Item that wasn't created in Kul'Elna,but createdsometime before the items."
"Wow, I am surprise at how much you know and remember." Tristan grinned.
Joey grabbed Tristan's collar at the front of his shirt. "Got something to say wise guy?"
"Yeah you might actually have a brain in there." Tristan laughed and Joey pushed him away.
"Whatever we need to get to class we are already late for homeroom."
They headed into homeroom with five minutes left of the class. Mr. Croc was once again reading the newspaper and the attendance not done. He was completely absorbed by whatever was in the newspaper that he didn't realize the two boys had entered the room. They silently walked to the far corner of the room in the noisy classroom and sat down.
"Where have you been?" Téa asked from her seat beside Joey.
Téa Gardner had shoulder length brown hair and deep blue eyes. She wore the Domino High girl uniform that consisted of a pink jacket and a navy blue bow and a white dress shirt. She wore the same colour of blue skirt with white knee socks and the pink school shoes. She is thin with a large chest and has a supportive, kind hearted, and strong willed attitude. She is five foot four and is the glue that keeps the group's friendship together.
"We were walking to school and talking about DM and how our lives are back to the state that we find it comfortable in." He answered her.
"Did you guys manage to complete the project that was given at the beginning of the year? A month ago." Téa added after Joey and Tristan both gave confused faces.
"No… what subject is it and what do we have to do?" Tristan answered slyly.
Téa stared at them with no expression. "That project is a project that takes at least five days of data to complete. It was the project for science class, the one where you place in the chemical given to your group and an egg and having it sit in a jug for at least five days and having you record the results."
"And when is this due?" Joey asked knowing that he was not going to like the answer.
"Today."
"Oh yeah Joey we did do that project." Tristan yelled.
"We did?"
"Yeah I have the sheets of data at home, you know the papers that you asked about on my game system shelf." Tristan told him trying to tell him to go with it.
"Oh yes those wacked out pages of numbers and experiments." Joey stated like he remembered by placing his index figure on his chin. "These past few days had really made me forget the little things like a project. I guess we will have to go to your house at lunch to get it."
"Well that's good to hear that you have completed it because there are no redoes." Regan told the two boys sitting in her seat in between the two of them. "Oh and hey."
Regan had medium length brown hair with a golden-yellow streak of hair on each side of her bangs and blood red tips with emerald green eyes. She also wore the Domino High female uniform, but she never seemed to wear the bow tie only her black chocker with deep blue sapphires. She wore black knee high socks and the pink shoes. Regan has a strong personality that likes to do everything by herself, but seems to have a heart of gold for saving their lives from DM and is five foot one with a high intelligence in machines and business.
"Hey was the assignment supposed to be typed and printed?" Tristan asked trying to get as much detail as possible.
"Yeah, Regan and I typed it up on her laptop last night." Yugi answered from the desk behind Téa and beside Regan.
Yugi had spikey black hair with golden-yellow bangs, with a crimson outline and violet eyes. Yugi's hair style was there since he was born, while Regan's hair style was changed with a little demon magic from Dark Matter four days ago. He wore the male uniform with a black muscle shirt underneath. He has been referred as having the heart of a pharaoh and is always the target when it comes to bad people with strange magical powers trying to take over the world. Yugi has average grades and is known as the king of games he was five foot six.
The bell rang and the class started to head to their first class.
"Regan, you've grown over the last few days." Joey told her as everyone got up from their seats.
"Yeah I suppose I did." Regan answered smiling, "See you guys in science class."
"Yeah… see you in science." Tristan mumbled as his friends left the room leaving only Joey and him behind. "So are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Joey waited until they were in the noisy hallway to answer, "Yeah, we need that project and the only place that is close enough to get to with a motorcycle and the project sheet is Regan's house."
"So we go, collect, and come back without a glitch."
So the two boys separated with their plan and continued to their two classes. At lunch they met at the front arch. Tristan and Joey ran down to Tristan's apartment and hoped on to his bike then sped towards their mission target. They stopped just before Regan's house. Jade, Regan's mother opened a beauty shop two days ago in their home and she without a doubt was working inside. Joey and Tristan quickly climbed the tree placed just outside Regan's room and saw their blockage. There on the open windowsill was the guardian of the mistress's room, Phoenix. Phoenix didn't seem like much of a threat by a simple look. Phoenix was a male crimson Egyptian Mau that is extremely muscular and lean. He is about two and a half feet in length and seems to only listen to his mistress, Regan.
The two boys ignored the cat and continued on their mission by jumping through the window, but were stopped immediately by the hissing of the cat. Joey pulled his foot off of the windowsill and the cat stopped. The two boys looked at each other and came up with a plan without even talking. They have known each other years and had improvised just as long. Tristan was to distract the cat while Joey went inside to get the cat secured. Tristan started to tease the cat and Phoenix went for it. Joey jumped into the room then everything went off plan. Phoenix gave Tristan a look of 'Yeah I knew all about your plan, so come on in and we have a blast.'
Tristan gulped. He had no idea on what this cat could do and so didn't want to underestimate him. Quickly Tristan jumped into the room as Phoenix moved out of the windowsill. The computer was on and opened to the file that they needed. Joey clicked the print button and watched the assignment come out of the printer beside the laptop.
"Yes okay let's go." Joey said finally breaking the silence. They started to walk back towards the window when Phoenix stepped in front of them.
"Meow."
"What do you want?" Joey asked in annoyance.
Phoenix pointed his tail to the pages in Tristan's hand. "Reow."
"What you want these pages?" Tristan asked waving the pages in front of the cat. "Well too bad, we need these."
"Mreow." The cat continued as he paced in front of Joey and Tristan.
"Stubborn Canadian, come on Tristan we need to go." Joey stated.
He walked over the cat and went to the windowsill. Phoenix jumped onto the windowsill and started to growl. Joey backed away and Phoenix went back to being a cat and started to clean his left front paw. Joey and Tristan decided on who was to grab the cat. Poor Joey losing the fight was given the job to get the cat. Joey moved towards him slowly, but was hit with a unexpected attack. The cat simply looked at the two boys sending shivers up their spines, Phoenix gave them a sort of like grinned then pounced. He jumped on Joey chest and knocked him over. The cat seemed like it weighted only ten pounds and Joey braced for the wrong attack power. The cat weighed a good fourteen pounds of pure muscle and gave the intruder a good power push with a release power of fifty pounds. Phoenix bounded off of Joey and headed straight to the paper's in Tristan's hand.
Tristan quickly removed the papers from the flying cat. "What the- this cat is crazy."
"No kidding," Joey puffed getting into a sitting position only to go down when the cat pounced again.
"There is no way you are getting this assignment." Tristan told the cat as it looked up at him from Joey's chest.
Tristan ran for the window, but the cat was faster jumping onto his back and dug his claws in to make Tristan stop. Joey sat up again and managed to get to his feet. He grabbed the cat off of the cringing Tristan. "Phoenix, we really need these papers ," Joey told the cat. "We are going to leave now and you are not to kill us understand?"
Phoenix nodded. Joey placed the cat down and he sat. In a sigh of relief the two gentlemen started to head back to the window then there was a tug on the papers as they fell out of Tristan's hand. The cat understood the terms. The two boys that were friends with his mistress were going to leave his mistress's private place and the he was not to kill them. Not in that agreement did it include that the assignment that they were stealing were to leave this room, at least not in one piece. Phoenix grabbed the papers with his teeth and pulled them out of Tristan's hand and allowed them to fall to the floor. He took his front claws a started to rake the papers with them and started to turn them into stripes of nothingness.
"Hey, stop that." Tristan told the cat and reached to take the pages away. Phoenix purposely missed the papers and scratched Tristan's right arm. Tristan ripped his arm away and the tried again to retrieve the pages only to get five claw marks down the center of his face.
"Okay your turn." Tristan stated to his friend beside him as the cat continued to destroy their project. Joey went for the papers and received a diamond pattern on his face. Poor Joey though didn't get the hint and became annoyed. He growled and tackled the cat. "Okay grab the assignment and get out of here while I keep the cat under control." And without looking away from the cat he knew something was up. Phoenix gave the same look that Regan and his arch enemy Seto Kaiba gave when they know they had won.
"Yeah Joey about that," Tristan stated with water in his eyes as the scratches on his face started to sting. "We are going to have to tell the teacher that the cat destroyed our homework."
"What do you mean?" Joey asked looking up at his friend.
He released the cat and Phoenix walked to Regan's bed in the corner of the room and watched as their homework mission fall to the floor in bits and pieces. The two looked at each other and gather up the pieces. They went back to school with the pieces and into the science lab.
"So because you are late I expect that you have the assignment." Mrs. Treeko said.
"The cat destroyed our homework." Tristan and Joey stated placing the pieces on the desk.
"Well it's a good thing that I said I will not give out redoes and allow late assignments."
