Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ lil_Jinx's Yu-Gi-Oh! Song Book ❯ Concrete Angel ( One-Shot )

~@He walks to school with a lunchiepack,

Wearing the same cloths he wore yesterday,

Nobody knows what he's holding back,

The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,

It's hard to see the pain behind the mask,*~

He looked out at the rain. His blue eyes wandering the deserted plains around the manssion. His father had gone off, yet again, to look for something.

His breath came out in a sigh as he hopped down to go to school. His father hadn't cared, he'd just left him all alone, he didn't say goodbye, he didn't tuck his son in, he never ever ate dinner with the boy.

~@Through the wind and the rain,

He stares hard as a stone,

In a world that he can't rise above,

But his dreams give him wings,

And he flies to the place where he's loved,

Concrete Angel,*~

"Hey! Look everyone! It's richie Noah!"

"Hey, Noah, when you gonna change your cloths? Next year?"

He ignored them as best he could. He had to try his best to please his father. If he didn't, he'd be ashamed for the rest of his life.

~@Somebody screams in the middle of the night,

The neighbors hear but they turn out their lights,

A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate,

When morning comes it'll be too late,*~

The car swervved out of control in the rain. He flet like he'd been thrown through a window. Like he wasn't going to ever touch the ground, like he was floating.

He heard the ambulance, but everything was dark. He heard his father's please to stay with him as he flet the wind rush past him and heard his father's voice grow fainter.

~@Through the wind and the rain,

He stares hard as a stone,

In a world that he can't rise above,

But his dreams give him wings,

And he flies to the place where he's loved,

Concrete Angel,*~

Noah sat up from his virtual bed and stared at the walls of his new room.

It changed everyday, but it was still night to Noah. He looked over at the monitor of the other's that had been forced into his world.

Mokuba was sweet. Seto was a screwy buissness man. Yugi was a child dualest. Tea was some crazy friend of Yugi's. Duke and Tristan didn't seem like good dualests. Serenity seemed like an easy target. But the one that caught Noah's eye right away was Mokuba.

~@A statue stands in a shaded place,

His name is written on a polished rock,

An angel boy with an altered face,

An angel that the world forgot,*~

I want to be like you, Mokie, Noah thought as he got dressed for the day. I want a fatherly figure who loves me. I want a big brother. For that matter, I want a sibling. I want a family. I want to be you, Mokuba. I want to be Seto's younger brother. I want....

~@Through the wind and the rain,

He stares hard as a stone,

In a world that he can't rise above,

But his dreams give him wings,

And he flies to the place where he's loved,

Concrete Angel,*~

Noah's eyes snapped open as a bucket of freezing cold water rained down on him.

"Rise and shine, Noah!" Mokuba cried as he ran around his and Noah's room, throwing open the curtains and the windows. "C'mon! Seto's waiting downstairs for us! He's says that you can have the day between our birthdays, which means, TODAY'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!" Mokuba dragged Noah out of bed. "Tell me you didn't have the dream about when you were the spoild-brat-in-the-computer dream again!" Mokuba said throwing some cloths at Noah. "That was FIVE years ago! Your body and you are turning 15 today! And tomorrow, I'm turning 15, too! Itsn't this COOL, Noah?!"

"Hai! Hey! Stop throwing things at me!" Noah picked up a pillow. "Hiya! Take that! AH!" He got a pillow to the face.

Seto watched from the door then walked down the hall. 'One big family? Yeah. Hate for Yugi? Nah.'

"SETO! WHERE'S THE BIRTHDAY BOY?!" Joey, Tea, Mai, and Yugi asked happily.

"Coming," he mummbled in reply.
