FicWad

I sat in the backseat of Dad's car as we were driving home. We had gone to the game store Dragon's Lair in Stockholm so we could play Yu-Gi-Oh!, or more specifically me. Dad was very kind to drive me to and from Stockholm since I didn't like traveling alone on the train.

I was listening to the songs that played through the radio and kept singing along if I was into the rhythm, even though I was tired after long and exhausting Duels.

"Sa, hur var det dar idag? (So, how was it?)" Dad asked.

I shrugged my shoulders. "Bra, antar jag. (Good, I guess.)"

"Kanner du dig trott. (Do you feel tired?)"

"Sa klart att jag gor. Du vet ju att jag alltid blir trott efter flera Dueller. (Of course I do. You know I always get tired after several duels.)"

After that, we remained silent as the radio kept playing songs. I closed my eyes to get some rest while Dad drove down the highway. I kept thinking about my new crush that was a fictional character. I couldn't help but blush whenever I thought about him. I knew deep down that I was too old to play Yu-Gi-Oh!, or Duel Monsters which sounded a lot better, and have a crush on a fictional character. But, hello! A girl can dream, right?

My eyes snapped open when I heard a loud honk outside Dad's car and then felt the vehicle lose control.

"Vad hander?! (What's happening?!)" I panicked.

"Estelle, hall i- (Estelle, hold on-)"

It wasn't long before we felt something crash into the car and made it violently spin. I tried to hold on, but then something struck me and I felt nothing but pain surge through my body. That was when everything turned black with a hint of crimson...

XXXXXXXXXX

My presence had been felt by a tall knight-like figure in white armor. It's name was Omnimon, a creature known as a Digimon. A long cape flowed down Omnimon's back.

I heard voices that sounded foreign but familiar, which caused me to wake up. Everything was blurry when I opened my eyes. I had to wear glasses since I was nearsighted, but I didn't have them on me.

I groaned and sat up slowly, rubbing my face. I heard the voices gasp in relief when they noticed that I was awake.

"You're awake!" A young boy happily exclaimed.

I turned to the left and saw two blurry figures. I tried to reach out for my glasses, but one of the figures acted faster and put the glasses on my outstretched hand.

"Here you are." A kind voice said.

I nodded as a thank you before putting my glasses on. I blinked a couple times to adjust my eyes before I looked at the children. I almost gasped loudly when I recognized them.

It was the twins Leo and Luna from the anime Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's.

I held myself back to remove my glasses and rub my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing things.

"Hey. You okay, miss?" Leo asked when I didn't speak.

Their voices sounded like the ones from the dub. Both of them looked curious and worried about me.

"Where am I?" I carefully asked.

"My brother and I found you unconscious not far away from our home." Luna informed me. "We brought you here after it started raining."

"You've been out cold for like three hours." Leo added.

This was getting weirder and weirder. Was this a dream I was having after losing consciousness when the other vehicle crashed into Dad's car? I took a look at myself and noticed that I was wearing the same outfit from before the crash.

My outfit consisted of a black top with long sleeves, a red jacket with short sleeves, jeans that hugged my legs and white socks. I looked down towards the floor and spotted my black long length boots that almost reached my knees. In case you wondered a few things about my appearance, I had dark blue rimmed and slightly oval shaped glasses, blue eyes, skinny and very white skin, and thick half-wavy chestnut brown hair reaching down to my chest.

I swung my legs over the side of the couch and spotted my wine red shoulder bag next to the couch as well. I quickly reached for it and zipped it open to see that all my belongings were in there, except my Yu-Gi-Oh! card holder, but strangely my steel box was there.

"Eh...miss? Is everything okay?" Leo asked her.

I looked up from my bag and suddenly felt nervous when the twins watched me intensely. I quickly realized I had to keep a low profile. I couldn't just tell them that I knew who they were and where I was.

"Y-yes, I think so." I replied sheepishly.

"Do you remember who you are?" Luna asked me.

I nodded my head. "Yes, I do...but who are you two?"

Leo grinned. "I'm Leonardo, but please call me Leo and this is my twin sister, Luna!" He gestured to his sister. "Now, who are you?"

I hesitated to answer for a second. "Estelle. Estelle Malmstrom." I looked around the giant living room. "Where are we?"

"You're in our apartment in the Tops district." Luna answered.

"Only super rich people can live here." Leo bragged.

I put my boots on and stood up with my shoulder bag, it's strap resting on my left shoulder. I had a feeling it would be better for me to leave and not be a burden for the twins, since I came from a different dimension.

"Thank you for looking after me while I was unconscious, but I should go." I nodded, walking towards the door. "I need to go and find answers."

"Answers? For what?" Leo was clueless.

"How I ended up here in the first place." I replied.

"You mean you're not from New Domino City, Estelle?" Luna asked.

I nodded. "That's correct."

"Even if you leave, where will you stay?" Leo asked a important question.

He did have a good point. Where could I stay? Since I didn't come from this world, I had no one to turn to for help. But maybe, no...it would be too much to ask for.

I then felt someone grab my right hand. I looked down and saw Luna walk up to me. She had a gentle expression in her eyes as she squeezed my hand a bit.

"If you want...you can stay here with me and Leo." She offered.

My eyes widened in surprise. Did Luna really trust me, a stranger, to stay with her and her brother?

"Are you sure about it?" I asked just to be certain. "I mean, you don't know me and what about your parents?"

"I can tell that you're a trustworthy person." Luna stated. "You've got this gentle aura that tells us you're kind."

"And our parents wouldn't mind." Leo added as he approached us. "They're never home and we used to have a babysitter a while ago, but she had to quit after being transferred to her real job."

The twins smiled excitedly and kindly, like they were hoping I would accept the offer. I decided to stay for a while and get any clues about how I ended up in a fictional world.

"Okay." I smiled. "I'll stay. And thank you."

And that was the beginning of a adventure that would change my life forever.
