The Newcomer by Boogermeister

Chapter 1- First (Bad) Day

A teenage girl, around seventeen years old, was sitting nervously in a chair as she fidgeted with her maroon hair. Her dark amber eyes glanced at the Principal, who was reading her files on the computer. The girl was new to this school, called the Neo Domino Boarding School. Her parents, rather her father, sent her there for a better education instead of the 'failing' public schools. "Miss Aki Izayoi," the principal called out.

"Y-yes, sir?" Aki said nervously, sitting up straight.

"There's no need to worry," said the principal. "All of your paper came through fine. All you have to do is to go your quarters in the girl's dorm. Now, is there any questions you want to tell me?"

"No, sir," replied Aki. The principal's bushy mustache ruffled as he smiled and gave her some paper.

"You'll start class tomorrow," he said. "Good luck on your first day." Aki smiled as she stood up and shook the man's hand before leaving the office. But just as she did, she heard a muffled boom sound in the far distant in the hallway. It wasn't long until she saw dark grey smoke fuming around.

"Oh dear, they're at it again," the principal muttered as he got out of his office. "Better go find them. Miss Izayoi, it's best that you go to the dorm now." Aki, obviously puzzled at the situation, nodded slightly and walked away.

"I don't think this school is better than public school, Dad," she murmured to herself.

"Damn, it detonated too soon, Crow," coughed one teenage boy, his pale gold eyes watered from the smoke as he dusted the debris off his silver-grey hair. Another teen, with tall spikey orange hair and a M-shaped tattoo on his forehead, glared at him with his dark grey eyes as he coughed as well.

"It wasn't my fault, Kiryu," gritted Crow. "Yusei made the thing."

"Yeah, but you helped," retorted Kiryu. "Therefore, I can blame you."

"Oh, shut up about it," muttered the tall, spikey-blonde teen as he dusted off his shoulders. "The point is we're in trouble now, and we need to go." His violet eyes glanced the last of the group, who was crouching over the prank bomb. He had jet-black that was spiked to the side and with golden streaks. His colbalt eyes stared at the device and sighed lightly.

"Yeah, let's go," he muttered as his stood up, a jagged line and a triangular tattoo underneath his left eye was more visible.

"What should we do with the bomb?" asked Kiryu.

"By getting rid of the evidence," smirked Crow as he picked it up and tossed out of the window, only to realize it was closed and the glass shattered.

"Crow! What the hell?!" yelled the last guy.

"Sorry, Yusei, I thought it was opened," Crow smiled nervously.

"Damn it, let's just go before that old fart finds us," the blonde one muttered in annoyance as they ran off into the nearby staircase. After reaching two floors upstairs, the guys managed to get out of the upcoming discipline.

"That was a close one," panted Kiryu.

"Yeah but we're still in trouble because of Crow's ass-tarded action," the blonde teen muttered.

"Don't blame him for that, Jack," sighed Yusei. "Besides, we shouldn't have made it in the first place."

"Whatever," scoffed Jack as they walked down the hallway. "I'm about to leave this place anyway, I don't care if they expelled me for this."

"You don't mean that," whined Kiryu, fake pouting as he held his arm. "Who's gonna comfort me whenever I have bad dreams about cupcakes?" Yusei and Crow laughed as Jack pushed Kiryu away, who was also laughing. As soon as they turned a corner, Yusei bumped into a maroon-haired girl, dropping her papers.

"Oh, I'm sorry," he quickly said as he bent down to pick them up.

"No, it's my fault, I didn't see where I was going," muttered the girl as she crouched down and gathered them up.

". . . . You're that senator's daughter, aren't you?" asked Yusei. The girl flinched and quickly stood up.

"How would you know?" she questioned.

"I was breaking through the school computer one time and your name came up," Yusei anwered as he stood up, it was as if it was nothing. "You have the same last name as Senator Izayoi, Miss Aki." Aki's face was flushed with embarrassment and anger.

"First off, that's an invasion of privacy," she huffed. "Second of all, breaking into the school computer is illegal, you could go to jail for that." Yusei simply stared at her before his eyes wandered downward towards her chest, which was obviously hard not to miss. "Hey! Don't stare at my chest, that's sexual harrasment."

"Can we then?" asked Kiryu as he and Crow smiled. Aki glared at them, and made them flinch.

"You're asking for it, girl," muttered Jack. "Your cleavage is very noticeable."

"You boys are so immature," Aki gritted angrily. "I hope I never see you in class." She stormed off, as Kiryu let out a low whistle.

"That'll get you four points for staring at her huge rack, Yusei," he smirked as he patted him on the shoulder.

"I didn't really mean to," sighed Yusei.

"Sure, and I'm the king of the Moon," laughed Crow. "You were starin' at it like it was food."

"Sometimes I wonder why I'm still friends with you guys," Yusei muttered as they continued walking.

"That's because you hate the rest of the world!" cheered Kiryu.

The two dormitories are located at each end of the school, about two blocks away. The dorms are actually three sets of apartment buildings each. Aki's new dorm room was in the middle building on the fourth floor. She reached the door labled '4-F' and knocked on it, as she was told that she would have a roommate. The door opened and there stood a girl; she has dark forest-green hair that appears black and was just past her shoulders. Her greyish-teal eyes was covered by her thick, round glasses.

"Can I help you?" she asked.

"Uh yeah, I'm Aki, and I'm your new roommate," replied Aki.

"Oh yeah, I was told that," smiled the girl as she put her hand out. "I'm Carly, nice to meet you." Aki smiled back and shook her hand. "Come in and look around," Carly said as the other girl walked inside. It looked like something out of a fancy furniture catalogue. "Okay, this is your room over there," stated Carly, pointing at the far right of the living room where there was a door.

"Thanks very much," smiled Aki. "I needed to feel better after earlier today."

"What do you mean?"

"I just met the rudest guy ever," Aki immediately frowned. "He was so very insensitive, he knew who I am by hacking through the computer and his friends was gawking at my chest--"

"Wait a minute," Carly cut her off, glancing at Aki with a slight confusion. "How did this guy look like?"

"Well . . . . he has black hair that kind of look like a crab," pondered Aki. "He had bluish eyes and . . . . some tattoo on his left cheek."

"Dang, you've met Yusei Fudou," sighed Carly.

"Who's he?" questioned Aki.

"He's actually one of the top students in this school," replied Carly. "The problem is his intelligence is the source of his troublemaking. I've heard he once rewired the security system of one teacher's home just because he gave him a C on a test. It's even bad enough when he's with his friends, over a dozen times a year they get sent to the principal's office."

"Really? I'm surprised he wasn't sent to jail," Aki muttered sarcastically.

"Doesn't matter, but you'll run into him and his friends whenever they pulled a prank," Carly replied. "Everybody does, especially when it involves smoke bombs."

"Well that's how I met him."

"Oh, then that's better than the paint detonator in the girls' bathroom at school," Carly sighed in relief.

"Paint detonator?" questioned Aki.

"Trust me, it's best not to know," she said.

The next morning, Aki put on her school uniform, it was her first day of school. The rules stated that girls must wear a burgundy red blazer, a white blouse, and a black skirt; boys must wear a navy blue blazer, a white dress shirt with a burgundy red tie, and black slacks. Being a daughter of a politician, she tried to look dignified although her cleavage kept poking out of her blouse.

"Damn it, guess this will do," she muttered as she left her room; her belongings were already in there, along with a set of her new uniform. Carly was already in living room when she looked up from the digital camera she was holding.

"Ready to go?" she smiled.

"Yeah," replied Aki.

"Got everything you need?" asked Carly. Aki nodded as she grabbed her bag from a chair. They left their dorm and made their way towards the school. It was clustered with varieties of students in red and blue when they reached there. "What's your first class?" Carly asked.

"It's . . . . physics," Aki replied.

"Mine's Algebra. Guess I'll see you later, Aki," Carly smiled as she went her.

"All right, Carly," Aki smiled as she went to another direction. She soon reached the classroom of her first subject, it looked like a miniature laboratory with four rows of three high tables each with black-speckled tabletops and four stools for each table. Half of the classroom was already filled when Aki sat by the second table on the first row.

"Hope my first day goes smoothly," she muttered to herself.

"What a surprise to see you again." Aki flinched and looked up; Yusei was standing in front of her, along with his orange-haired friend.

"Do you realized you're breaking the dress code?" she huffed as she looked away. Yusei was only wearing his navy blue blazer, but his shirt was a black T-shirt and he was wearing black jeans. His friend was also only wearing his blazer, with his sleeves rolled up, and was wearing a yellow shirt with a picture of a black bird on it and a pair of dark-colored jeans.

"So? It's not like I'm on probation or anything," said Yusei. "Anyway, sorry about how the way I acted towards you yesterday."

" . . . . All right," smugged Aki, but not returning his attention. Yusei glanced at his friend and sighed.

"I'm Yusei," he said. "And this is my friend Crow."

"Hiya," smiled Crow. Still, they were getting the cold shoulder. "Is she still mad about that comment about her boobs?" Crow muttered as they walked away.

"Damn it, Crow," sighed Yusei. Aki glanced behind her, the two teens was sitting at the third table on the second row. Yusei caught her stare and Aki immediately turned back around.

"Everbody, take your seat," a boring-looking teaching droned as he walked in. "Okay . . . . seems that we have a new student here, Miss Aki Izayoi. You're very lucky, Miss Aki, because today we're going take notes on the energy molecules with slides." Most of the class groaned in boredom along with shuffling of notebooks hitting the tables. About twenty minutes passed until the slide show ended and Akiza glanced back at Yusei and Crow, the first teen finished writing his 'notes' while his friend snapped out of his nap immediately and wiping off drool from his face.

"All right class, compare notes with your neighbor to see if you miss something important," said the boring teacher. The students moved around the classroom, pretending to exchange notes each other and was actually talking about something else. Aki sighed as she glanced down at her notebook, she wrote some notes but not enough. She wasn't the one who would go up to those cliques and ask for help, they'd probably shrugged her off and laughed behind her back, like so many times.

"Hey, do you want my notes?" Yusei asked as he sat next to her. Aki schruched up her eyebrows in agitation and glanced away.

"No thank you," she muttered.

"But you've only written about five lines worth of notes," shrugged Yusei. "I'm only trying to give a small boost, considering this is your first day and all." Aki exhaled sharply and glanced at his notes, it took up two pages. "Best to take it now, we might have a big test on it pretty soon." Aki glanced at him then at the notes before taking it.

"Thanks," she muttered as she scribbled her copy quickly. After a few minutes, she gave the notebook back to Yusei, who was observing her a little. "Well?" she questioned when she noticed his stares.

"I helped you, and now you have to do me a favor," he simply replied.

"I don't think so," she scoffed as she stuffed her notebook into her bag.

"Don't be so cruel," Yusei sighed. "Looking at your face, someone told you about me, right?" Aki said nothing and glanced away. "Come on, I'm a good guy. I just have a sense of adventure."

"Yusei, did you get the notes?" asked Crow, stifling a yawn as he walked up to him. "Lemme get it."

"I'll give it to you later," Yusei replied, waving him away. "I'm busy right now."

"You tryin' to pick her up for a date?" Crow smirked.

"Yes Crow, I am," Yusei said indifferently. Aki glared at him and scoffed in anger.

"You are unbelieveable, aren't you?" she gritted. "This is my first day, and you're trying to ask me out, even after you and your dumb friends was staring at my chest like it was money? Do you think a girl like me would be with someone like you?" Yusei simply stared at her until she finished ranting.

"Actually . . . . I just wanted to be friends with you," he replied. "You look like a nice person to talk with." Aki's face went red in embarassment as she turned away.

"Wow, didn't know sarcasm when you hear it?" sighed Crow. "I was just kiddin' with the date thing."

"I know, I wonder if she realized that this is just first period," muttered Yusei.
