PROLOUGE

      (after duelist kingdom)

(Joey's POV)

     "As I walked through the park, taking my time, I realized I didn't have the greatest life. My parents got a divorce when I was a young child. My mother took my sister, Serenity, away from me, while I had to live with my father who is drunk all the time, and abuses and rapes me till this very day. When I got to school, I just tell everyone that I was in a fight, and make a façade with a grin plastered on. The main problem is, I have leukemia, in other words, cancer.  I know when I was little, the doctors told my parents I was in remission, and the cancer would not come back, however I believe they were wrong.

    For a while now I have been feeling extremely tired, weak, and have nausea occationally. I can't even fight off my father's advances anymore. I cannot receive treatment because I do not have that kind of money, not even medicare will pay for it. At school, the students and teachers believe I am just a lazy, stupid, kid. I could prove them all wrong if I was at normal strength. Even to Seto Kiba, the brown hair, blue eyed jerk who teases, prods, and provokes me about my stupidity. However, I have a crush on him, which no one knows about except for my self.   

     Sure I have my friends Yugi, Yami Tristian,Tea , however I still feel alone. The reason why is because no one can relate to the problems I face in my life. 

     Finally, I ended up near the lake, and leaned against the metal fence for support, while looking across the lake with the stars shining above me in the night's sky. I finally realized that I must me cursed to have such a horrible life.

     I sighed and finally moved away from the fence, and turned in the direction to my, retched so to call it, "home" to get some sleep for another day to play a fascade, while my cancer increases, and being hated by the one I love.
