What's Going On?
"Your so adorable!!! Here take this, buy yourself so candy there's a great store not too far from here."
"t-Thank you."
I respond to the lady as she drops a couple of coins into my hand and continues on her way I look down and into my hand flabbergasted. 'There is absolutely no way that this is all I needed to make bank.'
Counting up the money I got I count up to 5200 total Yen. 'What the hell!? This is a fucking cheat code! I made back the money from the hair cut and then some! If I knew I was cute enough to make a 2 thousand Yen an hour I would've gotten a hair cut sooner.'
I'm currently still exploring the city and its parts to satiate my boredom. 'Though what do I do with this money? Even though Duel Monsters is getting much bigger I still can't find any place that sells cards on the regular. Most stores don't even carry them and the ones that do only have one or two packs at best and they're super overpriced.'
'I wish I was given a older body! I swear if I was 16 or something I'd be so much easier to find out where shit is! Not to mention the fact that I'm not even in Domino City so I can't go looking for a certain card shop. The City I'm in, Takayama is absolutely huge! Not to mention how cold this place is!'
I continue to move on before reaching another point of interest, another out of apartment/ garage shop though this one looks to be a manga shop? The outside is decently clean with a open design letting me look inside the shop, though everything is deeper inside.
'Manga? Isn't that like illegal? I mean a Manga/Anime world having different manga's in it just doesn't feel right.' Letting the curiosity overcome me I creep into the small store and I absent mindedly start looking around.
'They have Frenzied?...No way, is that a knockoff version of Berserk?' Moving along I look around for a little while searching for any card board but to my immense disappointment I find nothing other than some 19+ manga.
'This is weird, where's the clerk or worker?....Eh' Shrugging my shoulders I end up leaving before anyone can see me and move on past the shop.
'...Whatever, I have bigger things to worry about!'
While I'm messing around events shift in more once again heading back to that barber shop.

[POV Third Person]
"I'm getting too old for this you know?"
The old man laughs as the second last of the hooded figures fall. The only one left standing speaks in a shout towards the grey haired man. "Mr. Phoenix! There is still time to take our offer! Do not go against us! We will crush you!"
Laughing in their face once again the now shirtless old man speaks. "What happened to your scary voice? What did it go away after you got your ass beat?" Laughing once again the shredded old man quickly focuses. "You won't get these cards, so you should pack it up."
The shrouded figure shakes slightly in response as the normally dark robe switches to a pure white. "I see, you've tricked me. You're no longer in possession of the Vision Hero's are you?"
The old man shakes slightly before responding. "Took you long enough to figure it out. I left those cards with my son, he's probably in the U.S by now. I guess this is your loss."
The changed figure doesn't have a outward reaction as they continue to speak. "I guess that is troublesome...Though it won't matter in the long run after all he doesn't have nearly the same power you have. I'll have him dead by the end of the decade."
The old man scoffs before speaking once again. "You act like I'll let you leave this country! I'll end you and your influence here!"
The figure's body language changes with it finally turning towards the man completely as a shroud of pure light eminates from their humanoid body. "Then prove it. A punishment game should be perfect for you!"

'I feel like something bad is happening....I guess it fine!' Moving from that bad feeling I give the vendor a 100 Yen coin and point towards the Takoyaki balls. 'I've always wanted to try these!'
As I do so I take a seat at one of the three chairs set up at their stall and wait for my food. 'Other than the fact that I'm a child and homeless this has been an overall enjoyable experience, I mean trying this food has been a life long dream of mine!'
Swallowing the salvia from my salivating I start flipping through my deck absent mindedly. 'The only other thing is how terrible my cards are. I mean Flame Viper, Mountain Warrior, I could do so much better.'
"You play that game too?" Surprising me a person lets themself known by speaking over my shoulder. I jump slightly and turn towards the voice and clearly the person didn't expect it either as they move back quickly.
"Who are you?"
The person I see is a child probably younger than I am wearing a orange coat. "I'm Noah!"
