Into The World Of Yu-Gi-Oh [Book 1]

Episode 1: Heart of the Cards [Rewritten]

It's been three months since coming into the world Yu-Gi-Oh and Icarus gotten closer to Seto....surprisingly. Their relationship is more like her following him and he puts up with her. Like a small kitten following the larger farm dog.

To be perfectly honest, during the three months of their friendship they dueled a bit. Due to early game Yugioh mechanics she couldn't go all out in duels. But she sure put up a fight even though he 'wins' all of the time. Little dose he know she somewhat let's him win. Her Dark Magician is goateed and her best card since it was a deck she uses was given to her by her uncle.

Icarus had her arms hooked around Seto's neck while looking over his shoulder to read the book he was reading at the moment. Why Seto allowed Icarus being this close...who knows, there is something about Icarus that Seto couldn't truly understand but at the same time he doesn't mind. Icarus was allowed to practically cling onto Seto whenever she wanted, which isn't often, lucky for him. She respected his space more often then not and he appreciated that.

"Hey, joey. Earth to joey, are you in there it's your turn" Yugi said as said blonde was looking at his cards trying to think of what to do next.

At this moment, Yugi was teaching Joey how to play duel monsters and he's almost getting the hang of it. Sure Joey was a bit of a slow learner but he's not stupid either.

"Aww, he's so cute when he's thinking" Tristan teased while throwing his arm around Joey. Clearly irritated at Tristan, Joey kept calm but pushed him off of himself.

"Buzz off, Yugi is teaching me how to play duel monsters" replied joey as he showed Tristan his 'awesome' duel monster cards.

Looking confused Tristan put his finger under his lip "Drooling monsters?" clearly mocking Joey but at the same time was genuinely confused.

"No, you idiot! Duel monsters" Joey than shoves Tristan away to focus on the game.

Téa spoke up a bit amused and shrugged her shoulders clearly a bit tired watching them "They been at it for hours, Joey is getting the hang of it but Yugi is practically an expert"

Joey plays 'Kagemusha of the Blue Flame', Téa proceeds to explains to Tristan that each monster has an ATK number and a DEF number and the first Duelist to eliminate their opponent's Life Points wins the Duel.

Joey's pleased with his move and boasted "Pretty good move huh"

Although Yugi agrees "Yeah it was a good move but," he plays 'Blackland Fire Dragon', which is powerful enough to defeat Joey "Not good enough".

Tristan teases Joey's skill, calling him a few friendly insults, but Yugi assures Joey that he played alright.

"I just have better cards", he tells them, which is mainly because his grandfather owns a game shop, where he gets all his good cards.

Joey gets fired up to visit the shop later thinking about the new cards he can get and Yugi spoke up again, talking about a super rare card his grandfather has. Which isn't a good idea just saying that out loud.

A few tables across, Seto Kaiba and Icarus were reading his book called 'Also Sprach Zarathustra'. Don't ask what its about, Icarus has no fricken idea, Seto read some interesting book that she sometimes can't wrap her head around. They overhear Yugi's conversation with his friends and Icarus sighed before looking down at Seto.

"...Seto?" She say his name knowing she didn't need to finish her sentence.
He merely nodded and looked back towards the book. Flipping the page.
'Rare card, I wonder if it's the one I been searching for" he wonders.

Icarus can't truly stop Seto, but this event must happen or Yugi will never be 'king of games'. Unhooking her arms from Seto's neck she stood up straight, patting his shoulder before going back to sit at her desk.
