Chapter 1 - A Place To Stay
Yugi was waiting around in the train station for some sign that Rebecca's train had arrived. Ryou was busy in england visiting his father, Tea was at a dance workshop in Newyork City in America for a week, Joey was being kept busy cause he lost a bet to Mai so he was forced to go on a date with her. Duke was improving his dice game and Tristan was fixing up his bike that was trashed when Joey went for a joy ride on it.
Yugi offered to meet Rebecca at the station since he had nothing better to do. Yugi...are you sure you want to stay here? I'm beging to become quite bored. Yami did sound bored.
Why don't you go and read or something. I promised grandpa I meet Rebecca, and besides that. I'm done all my homework. Yugi watched the trains pass from the bench.
Very well, I shall-Yami paused and came out in transparent form. His eyes scanned the train station but looked back at Yugi seemingly missed what he saw or sensed.
What did you sense?
It was nothing. Yami glanced at Yugi and sat down beside him still transparent.
"Ow!" a female voice caught Yugi's ear and he looked over at the train that just came in. He saw a girl with short rose pink hair and a black hat fall off. Her hat fell off and rolled to his feet. Yugi picked up the hat and saw the girl with her black backpack and red duffle bag rush over to him. "Sorry about that. Could I have my hat back?" The girl held out her hand. Her eyes were a really bright hazel. Yugi gave her the hat and she rushed off. "Maybe I'll see you around?"
Not much of a good bye but - Yugi are you listening to me? Yami looked at his light and glared, YUGI! Yugi snapped out of whatever trance he was in and glanced at Yami.
Did you say something?
You think she is, how do you say, cute. Yami smirked as Yugi's cheeks blushed a faint pink hue.
I don't. I just met the girl. Yugi sighed and spotted Rebecca coming off the train near the far end. Yugi rushed over to her just in time to see Rebecca and the hat girl fall down.
"Umph! Watch it!" Rebecca snapped angrily as the girl got up and offered her a hand. Once again her hat had fallen off. Yugi picked up the hat and looked at it. He read the name on it. Angel Takitai.
"Is this yours Angel?" Yugi asked in a dreamy voice.
"Yes, but my name isn't Angel. That's my sisters name." The girl smiled. Grabbing her hat she ran off, "Sorry about hitting your friend by accedent and I will probably see you around," she stopped, "Cutie!" She ran off again. Yugi blushed and Rebecca snarled.
Aibou...I suggest you pay attention to Rebecca. She seems pretty angry. Yugi looked at what Yami was talking about and noticed that too.
I see what you mean. Yugi smiled and helped Rebecca up. "You okay?"
"Yeah...she could of at least helped me up!" Rebecca picked up her bags and handed one to Yugi, "Could you carry one please?" Yugi nodded and felt Rebecca wrap her arm around him.
"Maybe she had to be some where..." Yugi whistled for a taxi or at least tried but his mouth couldn't form the right way to. He heard a whistle from the alley and a taxi came for him.
"Need a ride kid?"
"Yes, thanks." Yugi helped Rebecca in and climbed in after her. As the taxi drove away Yugi turned around and saw the same girl with rose pink hair in the same black hat wave. Yugi blushed and turned around.
Yugi, if you blush anymore today you might explode! Yami laughed and smirked at his lighter side. Yugi glared and said nothing to his dark for quite some time. Yugi are you angry with me?
No. Yugi stuck his tounge out at him, Just kidding with you. Laughing, Yami returned to the golden puzzle around Yugi's neck.
"Are you blushing because of me Yugi?" Rebecca snapped Yugi out of yet another trance.
"Um...I'm blushing cause I just spotted something very funny but didn't want to laugh to be out of place," Yugi answer quickly.
"Oh," Rebecca smiled, "Okay. Oh look, we have to go there." Rebecca was pointing to the new library recently built in Domino city.
"Uh...sure, but we should get you warmed up to my place first," Yugi looked out the window and sighed. She probably won't be into reading...
I bet she will aibou.
You think?
Yes I do. Yami smirked and disapeared into the puzzle again.
Once Rebecca was settled in and dinner was cooked it was Yugi's turn to watch over the shop. Rebecca kept busy reading a book she had brought from home.
"Hello? Is anyone here?" Yugi stood up and looked at the costumer. "Oh, hi." It was that same girl from the train station. "Do you have the Dark Magician Girl card? I can't find one anywhere."
"H-h-hi, ye-yes we-we," Yami pushed Yugi gently, "DO!" Yugi glared at his darker half and looked at the girl again. She seemed to zone back in just like him.
"Do you have it for sale?" she smiled at him. She wore a red corest top with a zipper up the middle, two black strips on the side, white lace on the lining of the top, and had belt like straps for holding the top together. Her skirt was black and red suspenders hung from the bottom of the top. Her socks went all the way up to the theigh of her legs and they were black. Her shoes were red and she wore the same hat she wore at the station.
"Uh..." Yugi was stunned at her appearence. At the station she wore a long over coat so you couldn't see what she was wearing. "Uh..." Yami pushed Yugi again, "NO!" Yugi sent another glare at him, "I'm sorry. She's in my deck."
"Oh my gosh. You're Yugi Motou, aren't you?" she titled her head and leaned up against the counter. Yugi was still in a bit of shock that she came by this store, "Well...aren't you?" Yugi nodded and she stood up. "I heard this place has some pretty good cards. I mean I could afford them an all but right now I'm looking for someone."
"Who are you looking for?" Yugi asked, "Would you like to sit down?" nodding Yugi brought her into the living room. "Here you go. I have a friend upstairs. I'll be right back, I just have to go and close down the shop." Yugi rushed into the shop front and pulled down the blinds, locked the door, locked the card cases, glass cases and pulled up a chair facing the girl in the living room.
"Uh..." the girl pulled her chair back a bit and smiled at him.
"What's your name? Do you have a place to stay? Looks like you don't since you have your bags with you. You could stay here. Would you like to stay here? You're more then welcome. My friends and us could hang out and-" the puzzle glowed. A differen't figure came out. He looked the same as Yugi only he was taller and his eyes had a different frame and the pupils were more crimson than violet.
"I'm sorry for my lights actions."
"Oh don't worry about it." So he does have a dark side. "My names Amber. Amber Takitai." She pulled out her wallet and showed him a picture. "See?"
"Yes, I see," Yami handed back her id card and gave her a suspicious look. "I'm Yami Motou." Amber's eyes surveyed Yami and gave a quick flash of light. "What did you do?" Yami asked after feeling a jolt that someone used magic.
"Did what?" Amber asked and sat up straight.
Yugi came back out. "I'm so sorry for my friends actions. He's always suspicious when we meet new people." Yugi held out his hand. "You're welcome to stay."
"Thanks," Amber hung her head, "But I can't possibly-"
"I won't take no for answer."
"Don't you mean we grandson?" Yugi and Amber gazed at the kitchen door.
"Grandpa?"
"If you need a place to stay Miss-"
"Amber Takitai." Amber filled in.
"As I was saying Miss Takitai you're welcome to stay." Amber stood up and gave a small but polite bow. She picked up her bags and looked at Yugi. "Well, aren't you going to show her to the other guest room Yugi?" Yugi nodded and motioned for Amber to follow him.
"Thank you." Amber followed Yugi up the stairs and into a medium sized room. "Wow...from the looks of this place from the outside you wouldn't figure that they're would be a room this big."
"Yeah...well, don't judge a book by it's cover." Amber threw her duffle bag and book bag onto the bed, "Who are you looking for?"
"My cousin. My parents both died in a shoot out. They were victoms. They gave me to my cousins mom and she took care of me but when her husband died after her in a car crash my two cousins were lost to me. I was sent to a foster home and I don't know where they were sent." Amber started putting her clothes away into the drawers. "Are you sure this is okay. I don't know how long I'll be here."
"We're positive and besides, maybe you could use some help finding your brother."
"Thanks, I guess I could use a little. The only thing is I know both of them live here in Domino." Amber sat on her bed and pulled out a Good Charlotte poster out of her duffle bag. She stood up on the bed and taped the poster to the ceiling. She took out a Lincoln Park poster and put it on the wall by her bed. Next she took out an Avril poster and put it on the oposite wall. Yugi examined the Good Charlotte poster and then the Lincoln Park poster. "You like their music?"
"Oh yeah. I have a bunch of their cds. You can borrow them if you want."
"Oh, I'm good thanks. Have you heard their Live In Texus cd? My foster mom sent it to me from Canada. She had to get rid of my stuff. Said it cluddered the apartment. She kinda kicked me out of the house. Have tons of money in my Japonese branch." Amber smiled and pulled out her Live In Texus cd and gave it to Yugi to borrow.
"Are you sure?" Amber nodded. "I better get some sleep."
"Yeah...that's a good idea. I'll talk to you later?"
"You bet." Amber waited until Yugi left and closed the door. She pulled on her Good Charlotte t-shirt that was five sizes to big and black baggy shorts.
