Chapter One
It was a rainy day as Yugi trudged back from work, exhausted. He had worked all day today with only one break. He worked at the new skateboard shop, which had already become popular as hell. Every few minutes another kid, ranging from 14 to almost any age, would come in and look for a half an hour, come up in line, wait in line for up to 20 minutes, purchase the item he or she picked out, and leave with the item and recipt. Same process every day, but a different person and item every time. It was seriously tiring him out. Especially since he worked so much so he could afford a new board. The one he wanted was expensive, but it would be worth it. The Manager would sometimes let Yugi try it out and it rode like a dream. Every turn, stop, or trick went so smoothly. It was like the board wanted to be ridden. The best part though, was the board he got to ride sometimes, was in one of the worst conditions possible. He couldn't wait.
As he went inside his room, Solomon, his grandfather, came and said he was leaving for his plane. He wished him goodnight and left. Alone, Yugi thought to himself. No company what-so-ever. Might as well go to sleep. With that thought, he got changed, brushed his teeth, took a piss, laid down in bed, and went to sleep.
The next morning, he didn't have to go to work until 9 p.m., so he grabbed his old board, a water bottle, a pop-tart, and left for the skate park. When he got there he started looking for Joey, Tristan, Duke, Malik, Ryou, and Tea. He found them all at the usual spot, which was one of the few shaded, cement tables. Joey, Malik, Tristan, Duke, and (obviously) Yugi all rode skateboards. Tea, and Ryou used roller blades. Everyone was able to do extremely hard tricks, and they all had at least one they purely invented on their own. Out of them all, Yugi was the best. He had 12 original moves that he created, and they are so hard to perform, that Yugi is the only one who can pull them off. Next was Tea with 10, then Joey and Tristan, both with 9. Malik had 7. So did Duke. Ryou was new so he only had 4, still making more. He was a genius at school in physics, and science, so he helped all of them with his scientific tips.
As of right now, Yugi was practicing his new move, Sonic Duster, where he used is momentum to push off the top edge of the wall, curl up, come down, and with his hands, landing on his board inside the edge and at the same time, push himself forward as fast as he could go, which was pretty fast. Do the same thing on the opposite end, but this time landing straight in the middle of the dome shaped crater, and not moving an inch after, crouching as he pulled it all off. This was only the second try, and he mastered it. The only reason he was able to pull this off, was because off his height. He may be 18, but he was the size of an average 7th grader, but it didn't bother him. It just meant he'd be able to pull off more insane tricks than the average 18 year-old. (Which, by the way, added one more trick to his list, making it a total of 13 original tricks)
"Nice one dere Yug'," Joey yelled happily, thick with his Brooklyn accent. "You goin so fast, dat I can't keep up!"
"You mean me," Tristan told him. "I'll be the first one to catch up to Yugi on the trick list."
"Oh, no you won't"
Then Joey and Tristan jumped in as Yugi got out, competing once again.
The trick list was a personal list of how many personal tricks you have under your belt. It was carved in to the back of their boards, or on the side of their rollerblades for those who didn't have a board. The only time when a new tally mark was carved in, was when the Leader, also known as the 'King', had seen it, and checked that it did not already exist. When the 'King' needed to put a new tally mark in, he had to have everyone in their group do the same thing he would do for them. Yugi hated being called 'King', so he ask that they just call Yugi, or Heba, both meaning game in different languages.
Yugi was watching them, until they got tired and came back up. Yugi was about to talk, until another person, who they didn't know, jumped in and performed a trick none of them had seen before. It was like Yugi's 'Sonic Duster'. In fact, it seemed to be a replica, with a few twists so that the man was able to perform it. He pulled it off perfectly, and on the first try. When he stopped Yugi noticed he looked exactly like him with a few subtle differences. For instance, the golden, lightning-like bangs that only went downwards on Yugi, some of them went up. The black, raven hair had spikes which seemed to defy fucking gravity, and were tinted bloody crimson on the edges, whereas Yugi's were tinted deep violet. While Yugi's small body was beige, his entire body seemed tan like a frickin' Egyptian. He was wearing a black tank top and black, leather pants. Yugi was wearing something similar, but instead of leather pants, they were just regular pants. (A/N: That's a lot of pants) Yugi finally got to see his face when he looked up. Out of all the people, he just stared at Yugi, grinning.
What have we here? A look-a-like? Interesting, Atem thought to himself as he looked at the lighter, smaller, and more innocent looking kid. He must be no older than 13 or 14! He kept staring at Yugi until Joey yelled at him.
"Hey! What's your name bub?"
"Atem," he replied in a silky Baritone voice, well at least to Yugi he did.
"What do ya need pal?"
"Nothin, just thought I'd try that trick that kid did."
"Kid? Oh Yugi? He may be short but he's really 18, so don't call my pal a kid." A look of surprise crossed Atem's face. They all couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey, what's so funny," Atem asked , clearly a little annoyed that he was being left out.
"Your face was funny a few seconds ago from hearing my actual age. Don't worry, everyone reacts the same way when hearing it for the first time," Yugi said, still chuckling. That's a first, Atem thought to himself. Yugi asked innocently, "So wanna join our group?"
