Science Experiments

Chapt. 1-The Escape and Being Taken In

Author's Note-This story isn't related to any of my others.

This starts out as the story of 3 kids, who grew up together.

The oldest is a boy named Joey. He looks after the younger kids.

The 2nd oldest is a girl named Serenity. Joey treats Serenity like his little sister.

The youngest is a boy named Yugi. Joey and Yugi are best friends.

For as long as they can remember, they've been experimented on.

Joey and Yugi share a room. Serenity is in an adjoining room.

Both rooms are locked from the outside most of the time.

There's no TV or radio. They're only let out of the rooms to be tested.

All they know is what they're told by the adults. The adults scare them.

The kids noticed they have tails and the adults don't.

So they try to keep their tails hidden.

One day, other adults break open the doors to their rooms(police).

They're dressed different than the adults they usually see.

Still, the new adults scare the kids. Joey sees an opportunity to get away.

Joey grabs Serenity and Yugi and runs from the new adults.

One of the new adults grabs Serenity's arm.

Serenity gets pulled out of Joey's grip.

There are too many adults for Joey to go back for her.

So Joey keeps running while pulling Yugi along.

Joey runs until he can't run anymore, then collapses.

He and Yugi don't know where they are.

All they know is there's a lot of kids and adults around(park).

They're approached by an older boy with brown hair and blue eyes.

The older boy says, "My name's Seto. What are your names?"

Yugi looks in his eyes and says, "We can trust him."

Joey trusts Yugi. Joey says, "My name's Joey and he's Yugi."

Seto asks, "Where are your parents?"

Joey asks, "What're parents?" He's never heard that word.

Seto and Mokuba have just been adopted by Gozaburo. Seto looks at Yugi again.

Seto thinks, 'I know only 1 person with eyes like that.'

Seto says, "Mokie, come here. We're going to the Kame Game Shop."

Mokuba, Seto's younger brother, runs over to him.

Mokuba asks, "Seto, who are those two?"

Seto says, "Yugi and Joey. They're coming with us."

Seto leads them to and inside Kame Game Shop.

Solomon Moto is behind the counter.

Solomon says, "Nice to see you again, Seto and Mokuba.

Who are your friends?"

Seto points at Yugi and says, "Mr. Moto, his name's Yugi. His eyes look like yours."

Solomon says, "Seto, call me Grandpa. When I was younger, my hair looked like that.

He could be my grandson."

Yugi asks, "My hair could be natural?"

Solomon asks, "Why would you think it isn't?"

Yugi says, "I have something I need to show you.

Is there somewhere private we can go?"

Joey asks, "Yugi, ya sure?" Yugi nods.

Solomon says, "Follow me." He leads Yugi into the house behind the shop.

Yugi follows Solomon into a 1st floor bathroom.

Solomon asks, "What do you need to show me?"

Yugi lets his tail out of his shorts.

Solomon asks, "Can you feel it?"

Yugi nods. He adds, "Joey also has one."

Solomon says, "Both of you will always have to keep them hidden."

Yugi says, "We suspected, because the adults often tested them."

Solomon asks, "Would you like to be my grandson?"

Yugi says, "Yes, but I won't leave Joey."

Solomon says, "I had 2 sons. I have 2 spare bedrooms.

I can take both of you in."

Yugi says, "We don't need separate rooms. We're used to sharing a room."

Solomon says, "I'll leave it up to you two."

Yugi hides his tail again. Solomon leads him back into the shop.

Yugi says, "Joey, Mr. Moto is going to take us in!"

Solomon says, "I want both of you to call me Grandpa."

Joey says, "Grandpa doesn't sound right. How about Gramps?"

Solomon says, "I like it. You can call me Gramps."

Seto looks at his watch and says, "Mokie, we need to get home."

Mokuba says, "All right. See ya!"

Unfortunately, they don't see each other again for years.
