I NOT HITCHED! By animematchmaker

Disclaimer- I do not own Yugioh and I never will. Done and done.

Hey everyone! Since I don't update often on my other fanfiction, I'm starting a new one (Ha! Aren't I great! --/) Anyway, hope you enjoy this fanfiction! Oh yes, read and review! By the way, this story is set around the future so it's a little more modern than old medieval stories but it still has some of its aspects kept!

CHAPTER ONE: The Not-so-Simple-Life

They did it again.

Not it, silly! SICKO!

Ergh! I hate it when they organize those fancy-pants-stupid-formal-Balls where those high-ranking aristocrats (mainly those "beautiful" ladies-in-waiting and the "beautiful" princesses and pretty-boy princes…not that I'm interested in them- I swear, I'm not) come dressed in frilly frocks and lacey socks- it sickens me…

…Well, it'd be funny to see a man in lacey socks

…And it's not that I don't like dresses. It's just that…well…I'm…

A MEASLY SERVANT!

THERE! I got it out into the open. Fabulous, ain't it?

I am the measly servant who has to clean and do palace-work. The King (Gozuburo) hates it when servants are seen participating in grand events like that.

I once heard that this guy who was employed for a year had dared to steal the King's robes and made the aristocracy believe that he was a noble from the Domino Kingdom.

Pfft.

What a loser.

He was thrown into the Deep Dungeons of Kaiba for a month without food or water.

He DIED in there.

But I'm not sure if it's true because my brother, Jounouchi, or Joey as most of us like to call him, told me that story. And he's really good at telling stories.

I can tell he's really into Mai too.

Oh, did I mention that we're ALL servants? All, as in, my brother, Yugi Mutou (my brother's best friend), Anzu Mazaki (or Tea for short- I wonder why no-one calls her Ann? Maybe she likes the name, "Tea"), also one of my brother's best friends, Honda Hiroto (who has a massive crush on me), Otogi Ryuuji (who also has a massive crush on me) plus Jounouchi's girlfriend Mai.

To make matters worse about me being a servant, the selfish ass of a prince, Seto Kaiba (my friends and I work at the Royal Kaiba Palace) bloody scoffs us because we're lowlife bums who don't have an education and spend time picking up other people's SHIT!

Stupid gay asshole.

I hate him! ERGH!

I hate him, I hate his guts, I hate this palace, I hate that old man Gozuburo who thinks he can push us around like friggin' pieces of crap!

Friggin' hell! THIS IS A HELL HOLE!

"Shizuka Kawai! Whaddaya doing sis?"

That's my brother, obviously…I can't really answer him right now, because I'm letting out some steam. In my diary- since I was educated before I was cruelly taken away from my dear mother. If you're wondering, I'm sixteen- the youngest, Everyone else here is nineteen…well…except Mai who is twenty-three.

"It's time to eat!"

That's Anzu- and boy, if she wasn't captured and taken away from her family, she would have been a wonderful dancer in America by now. But right now, she's the kitchen chef. I asked her what was for dinner tonight.

"Oh Shizuka. You know as well as I do that we're not as rich and filthy as the residents of the Kaiba Kingdom"

And the worst part is, she is absolutely right.

I hate my life.

And guess what?

It's rice paddy night! Hurrah!

Staple food galore!

GAAH! I CAN'T STAND THIS!

But I have no choice.

I'm just a measly servant.

In a hell hole.

In a hell hole that belongs to the Kingdom of Kaiba.

Could my less-than-perfect life get any worse?
