To Vaz-chan, enjoy n-n
When I was eleven I lost my family.
Both my mother and father where killed in a war, Gozaburo Kaiba was the supposed murderer. How I hated him, he took them away from me; he had spilt Wilco's blood.
And I wanted to spill his in return.
Dartz was the one who promised my vengeance, promised me a world where violence and humans as soulless as Gozaburo would not exist. Where children would laugh and know no pain, a place my brother would be happy. Most importantly, it would be a place without war.
In short, heaven would return to earth.
Shortly after my brother died Dartz took me in, told me his truth and like a blind fool I believed him it was hard not to for he spoke was true; humans, their dark souls causing nothing but torment and grief, I had seen it first hand and so his truth was my own. That was where it all started, the training, the Oricalcos and my lifelong revenge, and the cleansing of earth.
Raphael, Varon and I where the Doma no Sanjushi, we would bring back order to the world and then create a paradise of our own where the ones of the light would live in harmony.
What a load of bull crap that was. In the end Dartz was the one who took my family, but Raphael's and Varon's as well, he was the one who killed Wilco but even he was manipulated by the cursed seal which withheld the demons in a form of a green rock. The pharaoh saved us, even after all the hell we put him and his friends through.
Soon after that Doma disbanded, we all went our separate ways. I returned home but found it to painful to live again and I eventually became a drifter, I worked jobs to get by, stowed away on trains and ships so I got to see parts of the world.
Being a drifter isn't so bad, I have no family, my friends are living their own lives, and I have no reason to stay anywhere.
Not like it really matters anyway.
I coughed slightly, my stomach making turns as the ship swayed back and forth, the current tempest was roughing it up a bit. I scowled as I spot a couple of rats scurry by and my stomach trying to ease itself to not spill the contents of a stale sandwich that I had found a while ago. My head leaned against the cold steel wall, as I zipped my baggy coat.
Geez, Varon would have had a field day if he saw me like this…I wonder what the dope is up to right now…
I lowered my eyes a small bit of loneliness swelling up inside myself, how did it come to this? No family…friends…I have nothing, I just keep going from place to place I'll probably end up dying like this. I growled to myself trying to tear these thoughts away and instead focus on getting some sleep who knows, depending on where this ship is going to take me I might need it.
As soon as they began to unload the cargo I snuck out, I rubbed my eyes as the sun rose from the sea. I took a moment to admire the beginnings of a new day and as fleeting as the moment was so was I and parted my way to see where in the hell I was this time.
The further I walked, closer to civilization I had come, I made a face, I was never much of a people person with the whole Doma thing so I still held a "Grudge" against humanity. Great, people are giving me looks, haven't they seen a drifter before?
Nope but they probably seen a bum --;
I kicked a stone and looked around I notice there was a lot of characters, I guess I must in some Asian country but where? I froze, this place look familiar then it hit me.
This was Japan
Well isn't that a kick in the nuts eh?
My shoulders slumped, my hands slipping into my baggy pockets as I slipped through this cattle of people, they were staring at me and I didn't care I gave some Dirty looks back. I sighed well, the last time I came to this place was when I was still in Doma, and we only went to domino.
I look up and had my answer, I was currently in Kyoto, and well it wasn't so bad I was here now so I might as well see this place. So began again my drifting days, YAY!
…
Ok, the "YAY" sounds gay coming from me…
A month later in Domino City
"We're going to be late!"
"Calm down Yuugi it's just a movie--"
"A MOVIE? IT ISN'T JUST ANY MOVIE IT'S STAR WARS! REVENGE OF THE SITH!" The blonde ranted. Everything inch away yes it was true Yuugi was a star wars nerd and so the group decided to see the movie together.
"Oye Yuugi" Jou began. Yuugi turned to him "Yeah?" he ask. Jou sighed "I'm all for going to watch this movie but"
"Yeah?"
"Did we REALLY had to come in costume?" he half wailed. Both Anzu and Honda agreed with this. Yuugi eye's sparkled sadly "Enhances the experience it will" he replied. They all sweat drop because Yuugi was dressed as Yoda.
"But this is embarrassing! " he exclaimed fiddling with his Jedi outfit. Anzu sweat dropped holding onto her Amidala wig.
"Yeah I have to agree with Jou here "Honda spoke. Yuugi looked to him "eh hm" he coughed.
"…."
"COUGH"
"Meesa agree with Ani!" Honda restated in a horrible Jar Jar Binks imitation, after all, Yuugi convinced him to go as him. "Support movie we must. Dark side will prevail if not" Yuugi replied. Everyone laughed nervously, there where only two things Yuugi was obsessive about, one was Duel Monsters and the latter was Star Wars.
Yami chuckled I am lucky I do not have a body of my own
"Go let us!"
Jou sighed, "Ok ok, we're going Yoda"
"Mock do not young Padawan" Yuugi said and with that marched off to the movie theatres. "Eesh…" the two remaining males agreed. Anzu stuck her tongue out "Let him have his fun you two" she said. Honda and Jou looked to each other then to Anzu.
"Yes your highness"
; "Shut-up"
Thus the quartette continued their journey in a galaxy far, far away or the Domino movie theatres. As Yuugi talked enthusiastically about the movie and the uber coolness it would bring he did not notice a man in heavy clothing sleeping in the middle of the sidewalk and neither did his friends.
Amelda was in for a rude awakening.
Amelda's POV
Zzzz…Mmm…Damn it Varon, how many time have I told you NOT TO EAT MY DAMN MUFFIN!
OOF!
Ah what the hell, what just kicked me! Whoever woke me up is in a deal of pain, grudgingly opened my eyes to face the ass hole who woke me up back to reality.
Ok ass hole get ready for the biggest beating of your…
O-O
"Ah! Sorry I am, see you I did not!"
What…
"Yuugi cut it out wit the Yoda thing already!"
"But I'll be out of character…"
The…
"Meesa thinks that Jono is right--ugh! Jou is right"
Fuck…? o.O;
"Err um we're really sorry, we didn't see you, honestly"
OO Wow…that chick has a really creepy hairstyle and I thought Varons was bad. Right now…who are these freaks…there's a Kermit the frog look a like…some blonde guy in a dress…I don't know what the hell that thing is suppose to be (he's referring to Honda) and a girl with clown make up.
…
I've died and gone to hell haven't I? Well, I guess it's fair enough, with me trying to end the world and all…
"Uh sir?" Kermit spoke to me. I look to him slightly bewildered. "Are you ok?" Kermit asked again.
"…What the hell are you guys?' I ask. "Oh were going to see star wars" the Clown girl explain.
….
I should have thought as much --
I saw the little guy's eyes lit up with anticipation "the movie" he half wailed to his fellow freaks. I scooted myself from the sidewalk, allowing them to pass by, maybe if I'm lucky I can get some sleep again.
We're so sorry mister"
I know.
"Is there any way we can make it up to you?" one of them ask. Yeah, you can leave me alone or better yet…
I rose my hand towards them "Can you spare some money?" I ask. They all looked genuinely surprised, what? I'm a bum now, what can you expect; I'm swallowing my pride here!
….
They're still standing there…I growled "look either you spare me some change for a meal or get the hell away from me" I snap slightly agitated. The blonde growled at me.
"Hey! Don't need to be an ass about it!"
"Whatever, either give me some money or be on your way" I spoke adding a sharp tone in my voice. The blonde took this offensively "lets go guys, we don't have to pay this bum anything" he snapped and dragged the Kermit the frog and that thing with him, only the clown girl remain.
"We really are sorry for bumping into you, you're not hurt are you?" she ask. I remained silent, not wanting to answer her questions; I didn't have the current mood to be tolerant.
"Look…if you can spare a buck do so if not go see your little movie with your friends" I spoke bluntly. She too seems to take offense. "You don't have to be mean about it" she began indignantly. I grunted, my hands resting on my knees.
"Here…buy something to eat"
I looked up, seeing clown girl gently place some yen on my lap. I grabbed them cautiously and looked to her. She made a face "Not even a thank you?" she ask. She sighed and without another word scurried away to her friends.
"…Thanks" I said but of course she was far away by now to even hear it.
"What did you say?"
Or so I thought…
I looked up seeing the clown girl still standing before me, gruffly I repeated my thanks to her. She smiled "That wasn't hard at all," she said, her smile beaming happily. "Well, you're going to be late for your movie" I spoke harshly; this girl is kind of annoying me or I'm just in a cranky mood because I was stepped on, either way I want to be alone right now.
"Yeah, well bye" she begin to leave, She abruptly stopped and look to me "Take care of yourself" she spoke before turning to leave to see the movies.
Take care of yourself…tch I've been getting around haven't I? --; Miss know-it-all, well at least I can be able to eat food NOT from a trashcan today. It's strange though I could have sworn I seen them from somewhere. My eyes glanced and saw her retreating figure as little by little it finally disappeared.
Cute smile though…
"Grrrooowwlll"
I stuck out my lip feeling my stomach growling, sighing to myself I stood up and look to the Yen "I better put her charity to some good use"
Normal P.O.V.
"Here's you're order…"
Amelda said nothing but took the sandwich, ignoring the repulsed stares of the passerby's, discreetly he had left the deli and plopped himself on a bench. His hands digging into the paper bag he got out the deli sandwich and his juice. He growled slightly at the fact that people found him as a bum (though he prefer to be called a drifter) fascinating yet disgusting all the same. Paying no heed to them, he bit hungrily into his sandwich savoring the chesses, vegetables and meats the slice of loaves withheld.
He stop for a moment his thoughts going back to the group of freaks earlier. Biting into his sandwich again he remembered the clown girl; she had given him a couple of hundred of yen, at least around 100 to 200 in American currency.
'Why? Why give that much?' he thought. This act of generosity was bewildering to him for he knew nothing but the worst of human kind and so he could not help but wondered why a stranger gave him that much money. As he contemplated this he did not notice the group of thugs, bored and frustrated, coming near him.
He looked up from his sandwich seeing three guys standing before him their heads rose as they had an essence of superiority over him. He gritted his teeth; he had come across these types of people before, they were one of the reasons he wanted Earth to be cleansed.
"Hey nice sandwich, did you steal it?" one of them taunted followed by chuckling of his fellow dimwits. Amelda tried to pay no heed to them and began to get off the bench. The leader, seeing this grabbed Amelda by the shoulder, holding him where he stood. Amelda scowled at him, his patience wearing thin. "What?" he spoke in a menacing tone.
The trio howled in a fake horror "Looks like we're getting him mad?" the leader said laughing at it. Amelda's eyes hardened and in mere moments he had kneed the thug in the stomach then abruptly grabbing his arm and flipping him on his back. The leader howled in pain as the other two looked to him indignantly.
"You son of a bitch!" one of the cursed taking out a pocketknife while the other cracked his knuckles and neck simultaneously. He lunged for the kill, Amelda sense this and dodged, kicking him hard in the spine, he stumbled onto the ground in pain. Amelda jerked his head towards the last one standing. He had a look of fear but he had quickly masked it with anger and charged blindly towards the red head. Amelda tch'ed at this; he had not spend all those years with Dartz in vain. As the final thug charged, he did not see Amelda's speed but rather felt a hurtling force grabbing his neck, knocking all the air out of him and the hard concrete as he slam down against it.
During the fight Amelda's eyes were hard, cold, like they had always been only when they had been soft was before his brother but those were just precious memories now, of pain, of hope, revenge but lost most of all. He let the grip go on the thug. He turned away and taking his remaining meal walked, not bothering to turned back at the three fallen men.
His journey was not long for he was stop again by another man. He growled "the fuck out of my way" he growled. The guy smirked at him "I have a proposition for you" he spoke. Amelda spit on the ground and begin to walk past him.
"That yen won't last for even tomorrow"
Amelda stopped. The guy grin knowing he had gotten Amelda's somewhat attention. Fixing his slick hair he stared at Amelda's back "what if I told you there was a easy way to get more then that lousy hundred of Yen? Based on your skills I say we could make a lot," he proposed.
Amelda remained silent.
Sensing that he was getting to him the man walked up to him.
"Ever heard of Bum fights?"
"…"
"…Ever heard of Hustling?"
"…What about it?"
"Wasn't that a great movie? Wasn't it? Wasn't it?"
"Yes Yuugi we know it was great!" Jou replied biting into his hamburger. "Sorry, but the way he…and then…the "Yuugi bit in his hamburger, happily reminiscing on the film in all of it's glory.
"Oy Anzu, you're not going to eat?" Honda asked noticing that she had not ordered anything, not even a beverage. "Not hungry" she replied quickly. All look to her weirdly.
"Besides I don't really have money" she quickly finished. Yuugi look to her with concerned "But, didn't you just get a raise yesterday?" he ask. "Um..." she trailed off. All three boys look to her, waiting for an explanation. Anzu sighed "I gave it to that bum we stepped on, ok?" she answered.
"What?" Jou exclaimed. "That was nice of you Anzu but, all you money?" Yuugi asked. Anzu nodded "well he probably needed it more then I did" she said.
Jou snorted "humph, he was an asshole even after we tried apologizing to him, you shouldn't have given him anything" he retorted. Honda just shrugged his shoulders "Jounouchi, unlike us he has nothing" he commented his insight silencing the blonde.
"Well it's been done" she completed the conversation. Jou just bit a fry "Bet you anything he's going to spend it on alcohol" he murmured. Anzu gave him a glare.
"What? It's true, a lot of them buy drugs and alcohol instead of food you know" he justified his sentence. "Come on Jou, not all of them are like that" Yuugi defended. Jou sighed, "I'm just telling you"
Anzu made a humph, "look Jou, we'll probably never see him again so I gave him some money to get by," she mildly snap.
How wrong she would be.
