The Good Life (Collab)

Chapter 1

A/N: Hey ya'll! It's Kuro-chan here with Capricorn. So, yesterday I brought up a few ideas to her. Somehow, we combined all three together thanks to her and I plotting out this lovely piece of epicness and doom. We hope ya'll like it. No flames or negativity is allowed, but what will be allowed is positive and constructive feedback. Please enjoy and R&R!

In Domino City, as in most places, the people move about their daily lives. Everyone is searching...yearning, for something. Everyone, good or bad, is looking for their heart's desire...whatever that may be. A lot of people may call it their dreams, their desires...but deep down, everyone is looking for their own version of the good life.

Some people find it in a normal way, but others find it by turning to the red light district. It's where most nefarious activities occur like drug rings, brothels, etc.

Speaking of which, a few individuals lived in one of the apartments. It's not much, but it makes ends meet for shelter and basic needs.

Yugi woke up, yawning as he stretched, his amethyst eyes taking in the pale ceiling. Sitting up, he scratched the back of his neck.

Rolling over, he got up off of his mattress on the floor. Stretching, he looked in his bin on the floor, pulling out a change of clothes. Stepping into the bathroom, he grabbed a quick shower slipping on the clean clothes.

Padding out into the living room, he looked around to see if anyone else was up.

When he walked out into the living room the other two seemed to be awake as well. There were things to be done of course which involved films being shot, finding the right person to fit the role, etc.

Yugi grabbed an apple, looking around for it. "Hey 'Tem. Has Bakura left a package for me?"

"Yep," replied the older male, pouring some coffee into a thermos to pack for his job, his tricolored hair pulled into a low ponytail as he wears his policeman's uniform. "He left directions for you as well, but it's the only one you have for today since he's busy. I left some coffee in the pot if you want it. I have to leave soon for work."

"Okay 'Temmie. Be careful." Yugi poured some coffee in a cup. He would rather put milk and sugar in it, but they didn't have a great deal of money, so he didn't want to waste. He drank it black, eating his apple, looking over the directions.

"I always am. You be careful too," said Atem softly, heading out of their makeshift home to see what the day would bring.

As Atem got in his car, his phone went off with a text from dispatch.

Pulling it out, Atem opened his phone to check the text.

"Undercover op. Report immediately to hq."

Atem responded with, "I'll be there ASAP."

He then put his phone away, putting the key in the ignition before heading off towards headquarters. He wondered what type of undercover job this would be.

When getting to HQ, his Captain shut the door behind him after Atem entered. Studying Atem with his dark, hard eyes, Gozaburo finally said, "Atem, you are our best officer. We have gotten some tips of snuff films and pornography being done that is off limits. It's fronted as "Thief King Films" and they do some legit pictures, but they make their real money on the black market with the snuff and porn. I want you to go undercover as an aspiring actor, and tag them."

"Right," nodded Atem slowly, taking in the information, inwardly glad it's not about the drug rings this time. "When do I start?"

"There's a casting call tomorrow for some action film. Here's the file. Go home, study it, and be at the call tomorrow." Handing a new phone to Atem, he nodded at it. "Use this, so you can't be fingered."
