"Nakita Nissan?" A woman with short brown hair and brown eyes asked, her name was Miho Sago she was your Homeroom teacher.

"Hai!" You called bored as your teacher took roll call.

'I was Nakita Nissan; I lived in this crap of a boarding school in Domino Japan. My uncle sent me here after my mother died and he got custody.'

You stood leaning against a pinball machine after school, waiting.

"Oi Kita!" A voice calls you, straightening you recognize the blond hair.

"Konnichiwa, Kat!" You called to your best friend leaving the pinball behind.

I grew up with my childhood friend, named Jounouchi Katsuya; most people call him Jou. I just call him Kat, even though he hates it.


"Waga hausu?" Jou asked you to his home as you both stepped out of a local Starbucks.

"Hai." You agree.

I've known Jou since we were around 6 when he first moved here. We both went to Eastside Elementary; we meet at the annual track and field.

"Then they all turned, and Anzu fell causing her to break her arm." Jou told you as he opened his door.

He lives with his father and goes to Domino high, he hangs with these to put it bluntly goodie goods; Anzu and Yugi. I personally, don't like them, and they hate me.



You both were laughing as you entered then Jou stopped dead in his tracks/ there on the floor was Kat's father lying in a puddle of his own blood. You bit your lip to stifle your scream. His cup hit the floor as you starred in unhidden shock.

"Oto?" You watched as Jou collapsed by his father's body his eye watery but refusing to cry. Your eyes focused on him. His hand hesitantly went to reach out and touch his father.

"Don't." You say so softly that your voice betrays you. His hand comes back and then he stands up staring after at his father.

'When, my mother died he and Jin-san was there for me, now it's time for me to be there for him.'

"Come on. Let's go call the cops, alright? Then you can stay at my dorm, and it will be alright, okay?" You say in his first language, English trying to associate him with the world around him.

' When I heard about the crash mum was in, I had a nervous breakdown. Teens are very prone to them when they are under stress.

You grab Jou by the arm and wheel him around to the door. You can feel Jou shaking slightly silent tears running down his cheeks but you jut pick up speed and run down the steps. The door slams behind you and you continue to sprint down the street. Jou barely holding onto your hand.

'Finally' you think as a pay phone comes into sight. You screech to a halt and grab the receiver. Your slightly shaking fingers just manage to dial 911.

~Next Morning~

You sighed as you sat on the edge of your bed watching as your blond friend woke up. Smiling you stood up throwing him some clothing.

"Take a shower, I'll be back, at around 12." You said opening the door.

"Where are you going?" He asked.

"School, duh" You say sarcastically then remembered. "If anyone, like my roommate comes in hide." You left without hearing another word from him.

When you returned he was moping on your bed dressed in a white t-shirt with some funky blue square on it and he had on jeans. You smiled at him, a big shit eating grin as he stood up and glomped you.

"You're late." He said pouting like a little kid.

"Barely, now I got you some clothes." You say joking then throw him a suitcase full of random bits of clothing. You moved over to your closet and bent down taking out your shoes, your uniform, a bunch of pants, skirts, and a variety of shirts.

"Where are we going?" He asked you cocking his head to the side.

"America." You say turning your head to face him throwing him the tickets.

You starred as the people on the ground got smaller and smaller till them and the ground just disappeared. You slipped on your earphones as the plane movie started.

You two stepped out of the airport looking with your bags; you had one issue with this whole thing.

"Where, do we go? What do we do? From here?" Jou asked the question that was hanging in the air.

"AHH!" you screamed as a piece of paper floated into your face. You inhaled the paper, and started choking. It was ripped off of your face.

"There." You saw Jou roll his eyes as he held the paper in his hands. You watched his Amber eyes lit up as he read the paper.

"What, what!" you asked impatiently.

"Racing" You could sense the evil smirk on Jounouchi's face as he spoke. Your smirk mimicked his as you thought of the speed.
