Author's Note: Hiyas! Here I am with another Yu-gi-oh 5Ds story. I know I'm still working on the other one called The Battle of Christmas Eve, but truth is, I have a habit of multi-tasking. Anyway, this story will take place on the Yu-gi-oh 5DS event, but don't expect to be the exact copy, and I'll be adding my ocs in them. This first chapter is more of a prologue and it starts when Yusei is 7, Jack 8, Crow 6, and my oc Crystal 5. So, I hope you guys will enjoy. R&R! ;)

Chapter 1

Everything is dark around me. I can't seem to remember what's going on. All I remember was seeing flames destroying everything around me. I ran away from them, hoping to not get burn. By then, I collapsed from fatigued, fading into darkness, not knowing what's going to happen to me.

"Hey, hey," I heard a voice, "Hey, are you alright? Wake up!"

XXXX

My eyes fluttered opened. I woke up to find myself surrounded by trees. A sunlight shone on me, so I block it with the palm of my hand from letting it reach to my eyes. I groaned and got up, letting my fingers touched the grass.

"Thank God! You're awake!" I heard a same voice in front of me. I rubbed my eyes and saw a boy, who is about the same age as me, probably older, with spiky raven hair with golden highlights that jets upward like an upside down crab. I stared into his deep blue eyes.

"Are you okay?" he asked, "I found you laying down right in the middle of the woods, so I was worried."

"I'm not sure," I answered. I started looking around, "I can't seemed to remember what happened."

"Where do you come from?" the boy asked, "Maybe I can take you there."

"I...," I paused. I can't remember where do I live, nor how do I end up here, "I don't know."

His eyes widened, "Wait, you mean, you don't know where you come from?"

I shook my head. The boy sat next to me and rubbed his chin, trying to think of something, "It seems like you lost your memories then. Why don't you come to my place for a bit, then maybe we can help you?"

I blinked in surprise, "Is that okay?"

"Yeah!" the boy got up and smiled. He grabbed my hand to help me up, "Do you know your name, at least?"

Wait, I may have lost my memories, but I still remember my name, "Crystal...My name is Crystal."

"Okay Crystal, my name is Yusei. I'll take you to our place then. Come on," he started walking through the woods, and I started following him. At first, I felt like I shouldn't trust him. However, I began to sense an aura around him, which tells me that Yusei seems to be friendly and trustworthy.

By then, we reached to an old looking house, where there are kids in different age playing around the yard. They seemed to be having fun. Yusei and I passed by them until we hear another voice.

"Yusei!"

I looked up and saw two boys around Yusei's age, one blonde, and one orange hair, coming straight towards us.

"There you are," the blonde hair boy said, "Where the heck did you run off to?"

"Sorry, Jack, Crow," Yusei apologized, "I kinda wonder around for a bit."

The blonde boy, now known as Jack, sighed and shift his glance towards me.

"Huh, who's this?"

After seeing his glare, I timidly hide behind behind Yusei, pulled on to his sleeves, and shiver.

"Jack," another boy named Crow shove Jack, "Don't do that. You're scaring her."

Yusei patted my head, telling me not to be scare because these two boys are his friends, "Her name is Crystal. I found her in the middle of the woods, unconscious."

Crow's eyes widened while Jack seemed calm, but also shocked of what Yusei said.

"No way..." Crow said in disbelief and looked straight at me, "How did you end up like that?"

"I...I don't know," I answered softly, "I just woke up, not knowing what just happened."

"Wait," Jack said, "You don't mean..."

Yusei nodded, "She lose her memory."

The two boys gasped. Everything became silent for a moment. Crow broke the silence and smiled at me.

"Then, let's take you inside. I'm sure Martha will let you stay after we explain everything."

I looked at Yusei in confusion, "Mar...tha?"

"Martha is our mother," he explained, "Well, not our real mother, but she takes care of us and the other kids in the orphanage."

I looked at Crow and Jack, and then back to Yusei. "Is that okay?"

Yusei smiled and nodded.

Crow also smiled and gently took my hand, "All right, let's go!"

All four of us went inside the orphanage.

Few minutes later...

We were already inside the orphanage at the kitchen. Yusei, Jack, and Crow already told Martha, a woman with long black hair, wearing a red dress and a white apron, about me. As she listened, she gave me a face of sympathy and gently place a plate of pudding in front of me.

"So, you boys were saying that she was in the middle of the woods unconcious and doesn't remember anything?" she asked the boys with a worried expression.

All three of them nodded.

"Well," Jack was the first to speak up, "Yusei was the one who found her and brought her here."

Martha stared at Yusei, "It's true," he replied, "I just can't leave her there like that."

Martha then gently stroked my long, purple hair, "Oh, poor little girl," she whispered.

I continued to stare at the pudding Martha gave me and then started poking at it with my finger to make it jiggle. All three boys gave me wierd expressions, but I didn't care.

"Hey," Jack rebuked, "That's not to play with."

I ignored him and continued to poke the pudding.

"Martha, what's wrong with her?" Crow asked.

Martha sighed, "It's a little difficult to explain to you kids. You see, when a person has an amnesia, he or she will not only forget about what happened, but also sometimes their surroundings. I supposed she really doesn't know what pudding is."

"I see," Crow said.

"But it'll be okay. I'm sure that Crystal will remember somethings about herself," Martha remarked, "It takes time." Martha gently took my hand away from the pudding and instead scoop the piece of it with the spoon.

"Here Crystal. Puddings are meant to eat, not to play with. Now say 'ahh'."

I did what she said and took a bite out of it and chewed slowly. It doesn't taste too bad, but somehow, I don't like the slippery texture of it. However, I continued to eat it anyway.

"Is it good?" she asked.

I looked at her and nodded.

"Martha, you'll let Crystal stay here right?" Yusei asked. Both he and Crow gave Martha puppy eyes.

"Of course," Martha laughed, "There's no way I can say no to that. Now why don't you three play with Crystal for a bit while I'll set up a room for her. Both Yusei and Crow jumped in excitement. Jack seemed to be the only one to be displeased, but I couldn't really tell.

"Well that's fine," Jack said as he turned towards to me, "You better not do anything stupid when you're around me 'kay?"

"Jack! That's not the way to talk to her!" Martha scolded Jack. He cringed and gave her an apologetic look. I, on the other hand, tugged Yusei on his sleeves and hide behind him. Yusei looked at me nervously, not knowing what to do.

Crow laughed at this scene, "Everytime Jack scares her, Crystal always hide behind Yusei."

"B-but," Yusei responded, "Why's that?"

Martha laughed at Yusei and me, "I beleive somehow she is really attached to you, Yusei."

Yusei and I looked at each other and blushed. Yusei looked away from and sighed, "I wonder how long will this last?"

Author's note: I know this is short, but I still have some details to add. Don't forget R&R. ;)
