"We are gonna kidnap Lulu"
"We are gonna kidnap Lulu"
Different voices coming
#####
At heartland duel school at the duel gym, it was now morning at 6:28 am Yuto and Lulu were already got there and were taking breath in and out after running fast.
"Looks like Shun isn't here yet" Yuto said while breathing
"Yeah and looks like we are actually first to come" Lulu said
There were not any people other than Yuto and Lulu.
"Let's take little rest" Yuto said
"Yeah" Noded Lulu
And they set on the sitting area where audience sat and watch duel.
"Here Yuto you must be thirsty." Lulu gave a water bottle from her bag
"Thank you" Yuto opened the bottle and drink but not much
"Here you must be thirsty too" Yuto said
"... Actually little" and she also drink like Yuto
"Ah" Yuto suddenly gasps
"Hhuh?" Lulu confused
"N_ No_ Nothing" Yuto said
"Did you didn't thought about it or didn't notice" Yuto thought
Lulu had drink with mouth connecting to bottle same as Yuto. But after Yuto drank water from bottle.
But Lulu confused
Time passes
"Seems like we are only once here and others are not gonna come soon." Lulu said
"Yeah. It's a month before Cup so it's natural everyone are lightly serious."
"I was wondering even big brother haven't came yet. Why?"
"Maybe Shun might had been out for walk or rather I think he suddenly had a business"
"Yeah but in morning he didn't told that he will also come early and he would had told me that he will come with me" Lulu said
"Actually yeah, that makes sense"
As they were wondering but then just started to talk about this and that, in other words regular talk.
And the suddenly not heavy it energetic footsteps came.
"Oh! Good morning" He said
"Good morning Nate" Lulu said
"Good morning. It's rare for you to come early. Actually I never saw you coming early for even classes" Yuto said little taunting but in good manner
"Yeah I was thinking I should take everything more seriously like never before for this Cup" Nate said
"Amazing! I think you are serious" Lulu said
"What a rare thing" Yuto said
"Come on it's not surprising."
"Now then," Yuto said "why are you suddenly early?"
"Actually I made bet with Keith yesterday that I can come early or not in this lazy period for Cup." Nate said not taken back, making his hand going and return on his hair
"Of course"
"I was rooting for you through Nate" Lulu Saud
"Sorry but you are really my best friends. You know me so well" Nate said while showing his teeths visible
"You have just made yourself like open book for others" Lulu said
"You only do things related to money only" Yuto said
"You are so blunt Yuto, you could give me good point like I am passionate for what I love"
"The only thing I know you know you love is money how can I point what is good on it"
"Yeah can't really argue. Argue with morals are endless" Nate said
Sigh (Yuto) 'is all your morals are money?'
"Well I didn't anticipated others beside me to come early are you two for practice?"
"We happened to meet each other coming here and was just talking" Yuto said
Noded Lulu
"Wonder what is taking Shun long I thought he was here" Nate said
"Shun?"
"Yeah I saw him just around here so I was expecting others" Nate said
"We didn't saw him"
"He didn't come with you Lulu?"
"No"
"Maybe he just came around for others things... maybe he forgot something" Nate said
"I don't think so but if it's Shun maybe he just had other business. But nothing will come from talking on this"
"Yeah"
"Well if you are here can we duel I wanted to duel with new people" Yuto said
"I am not strong seriously I won't help you for practice"
"It's not about practice but to do and you should also train yourself"
"But it doesn't matter I train physically or mentally if I don't have strong cards" Nate said
"It's about how you use cards Nate. You can win if you played with your mind first" Yuto said
Sigh (Nate) 'but it's pain to do from zero and who cares if I won or not'
"Yeah I will try" Nate said with smile
Noded Yuto with smile
And few minutes passed and people started to come little by little
"Well then I should also get started now" Yuto stand up from his seat
"Do your best" Lulu said smiling
"Yeah" noded Yuto
And after practice and dueling almost half a hour passed.
And Nate was talking to others.
"Kaito let's duel "said Yuto
"Yeah it will be fun" Kaito said with warm and challenging smile
And people gathered to and started murmuring how duel will go.
#####
A place no different than swarm but all red and not even insects around and sound of jumping around and no one there but voices came.
It was all red.
Sky, ground and even water and in middle of it there were lot of mud and from inside a hand came out tried to take out all body and resisted mud but_
"Just get lost already you resisted more than enough" a heavy voice came with neutral no happy or angry but cutting voice
And the owner of the body was storming on the already fragile hand.
"Let it go you are just dirtying your leg" another voice came calm and slow a voice which would make anyone lose focus
"I don't care the faster the better." The owner of the voice said
In this place Only those two and their body vague. Can't be seen clearly.
"Whatever"
And then the hand naturally lost strength and fall on ground and disappeared in mud.
"What a hassle to check each and everyone let's just go with whoever we can't see" one said
"No can't do what we are told not to. And we don't know the exact_"
"Since when did we started to follow Whatever shit superiors say"
Second couldn't finish saying but first figured.
"Since Whatever, whenever we are in danger it's natural for everyone not just us" second continued "when one know when to stop and what to do is rational but, when a rabbit knows he can't do anything he loses everything and fear and fights the tiger with no future of his own, we are in different boat" he finished
Sigh "you and your philosophical personality... well can't waste time here either"
And they become more vague, wavering and the place itself disappeared.
#####
At duel school
"I xyz summon photon cipher dragon I made overly unit" Kaito declared
"I activate spell card "rank up magic-fallen" I can rank up my rank 2 cursed chivalry into rank 4 monster" Yuto declared "and I activate my trap card when I summon xyz summon I can negate the summoning of xyz summon and my opponent will take same amount of damage as the monster I used to rank up"
Kaito lp 1500
Yuto lp 1000
"I activate trap card" Kaito declared "I can give same amount of damage to my opponent as I took"
Kaito lp 0
Yuto lp 0
"Not bad Yuto" Kaito said
"Says one who was gonna get defeated" Yuto said
And they both shake their hands.
And seeing their duel and the final scene of duel ship students cheered.
"It was good duel" one said
"It was a close one, I was having goosebumps" another said
"They sure are gonna go to last rounds of cup" third said
"As calculated as always Kaito had taken measures of Yuto using effect damage and Yuto has taken into account of Kaito make summoning of Galaxy eyes with of higher rank.
It certainty was close one for both of them but it just mostly got adjusted by the last moment of their card use"
Nate in deep thoughts his little shiny brown eyes and his brown hair is in simply, work done by wide hair comb and about his start of neck, length, simple and plain.
But his eyes were little mire shining with this analysis.
"What are you thinking you look deep im thoughs?" tran asked
"No nothing" He said in less than a second completely normal
"You had serious look though, it's rare other than anything related to money making."
"I get I was just thinking same"
"Why the hell am I starting to get serious into duel I got motived by Yuto's words. They weren't entirely wrong but am I gullable I don't know." Nate cluch his tongue and was chewing his lips subconsciously.
"Oh Shun finally here" Nate spotted Shun
"Sorry I was late but it's not that serious to come at time plus coming from you." He said with calm smile
"No you were at school's entrance gate I saw you but then just come here 6:36 around." He said
"?" Confused face of Shun with his eyebrows got down, little tightening in surprise.
"You saw me?"
"Yeah though I didn't call out I didn't expected you wouldn't even notice me"
"I see I just had little sleep and couldn't sleep after waking early but I got sleepy at coming here"
"So did you slept at school yards bench?" Nate said
"Yeah" Shun said in little light voice
"Must had Lee's sleep and with the cool breezes of morning I understand"
"!, did you came early? You saw me after all but why?"
"I had made bet if a student like me who always comes late and never saw at watch for time manage cane come early"
"Of course. And here I thought you had beaten everyone by coming here in this lazy weather"
"No Lulu and Yuto were already here." Said Nate
"Yuto too?"
"Yeah they were talking probably since few minutes before I got here."
"Were those two dueling?"
"No just talking it seemed like they were into talking and were taken aback when I mentioned you I thought you were with Lulu Yuto aside"
"Well it's natural if you show and suddenly ask question in early morning"
"Yeah"
"Was it just coincidence Lulu happened to meet Yuto" Shun fell into thoughts
"He seems to think very deep about this" Nate murmured
Even if Nate didn't have talent to play duel with strategy, no talent for life living and not great luck and simple looking and height average and just little above any average student overall if not for his analytic nature and unable to accept corner in debate. His self "no self value". And more than that his obsession for money have always made him away from other things.
Yuto take a seat beside Lulu and take a breath of relaxation.
"I wish everything last like this forever but_" Yuto said
"But we can't be In same place forever right." Lulu said
"Yeah"
"But feeling this way is natural the more something means for us the more want not to let it go even if the thing will be forever in us" said Lulu looking at front.
And Yuto with same vision as Lulu did same and thought.
