Yu-Gi-Oh: The Next Dimension

Settle In

Lisa (narrating and P.O.V.)

 

 

Apparently it was about noon when I went looking for the folks. So this is how it went down: I went out to find my parents and dumbass brother... They were at one of the police stations like everyone else from our world, trying to find us. When they saw me, mom and dad both flipped out, Justin was just kinda... Seto-like. 'I don't give a shit' and stuff. Anyways, I told them where Ivy is at and with whom. Of course, that ended WONDERFULLY!! *sarcasm* So, the police promised to look for the house and Mom and Dad took Justin to a hotel close-by Yugi's place. By then it was kinda late. Meaning, several hours had passed and it was getting dark.

I sigh and continue walking, hands in my pockets. Thankfully, Mom thought to get me some clothes. Now, I'm wearing a pair of capris, a pair of black-and-white 'volleyball' sandals, and a blue tank-top. I carry my sleep wear in a green backpack, along with some clothes for Ivy and other essentials: toothbrushes, toothpaste, my IPod (need ma music), our decks and things of that type.

 

The Kami Game shop was just coming into view. The front lights were on and I can see the lights from the living room through the windows. I sigh again and hurry to the door. In an un-graceful manner, I kick open the door. "I'm BaaaaAAAACCCCCKKK!!!" I call, startling poor Sugoroku out of his chair. I wince as he climbs back into his chair, grumbling something about ridiculous modern-aged kids. 'Okay then...' "What the hell?!? Have you never heard of knocking?" grumbles Yami as he wanders into the room, his hair more messy than usual 'Is that even possible?', from where I assumed the others are at, including Ivy. I shrug. "It's not like anyone was asleep, right?" He sighs and crosses his arms over his chest. "Well I was about to, when you came bursting in here." I chuckle nervously and scratch at the back of my head, as strange a habit as there is. "Oops, heh, well, my bad." I can feel little sweat beads dribble down my neck.

 

He rolls his eyes and goes back into the room. I decide to follow him. I walk into the living room to find most of the gang is half asleep while lying around in various spots in the room. I smile and look for Ivy. She's playing Call of Duty with Joey. Yugi and Marik sit close by, trying to help out, or mess things up. In other words, this is the calmest I've seen the group since they crashed my living room. I can't help but notice Melvin is curled up on the couch, hugging Opal, who remains unmoving and doesn't stir. She's normally quite jumpy but I suppose all this has worn the little Russel out.

 

Abruptly, I hear someone cough behind me. I spin around and am greeted by none other than Seto, sitting in a chair with Mokuba leaning against him, asleep. 'Oh he's so cute!' I can't help but smile at the sight of the younger Kaiba. "Sup?" I offer. Seto rolls his eyes. "Out of curiosity, where have you been?" he asks. I sigh and plop down on the ground. "I walked all over town looking for my parents and found them, and my brother, at a police station." He chuckles and gently ruffles his younger brother's hair. I sigh, for possibly the thousandth time today, and smile. "You know, for all that I've heard about you, so far, none of it seems to be holding true." He looks at me and frowns. "What's that supposed to mean?" He asks.

 

I grin. "I always hear how uptight and stiff you are, but you seem pretty relaxed to me." He shakes his head. "You haven't been around me enough to have an opinion about me." I shrug. 'God this guy just CAN'T take a compliment.' "Whatever." I get up and decide to bother Ivy and the boys.
