Hello everyone. If you are my readers of my previous fanfiction you should know that this is the next chapter of the series!

(Previous readers can skip this) For you new readers this is the same story but its going to be a crossover to Yu-Gi-Oh. Haro is my OC and she has been reborn 3 times (this is her 3rd life). The Shinsengumi were sent to different worlds as a result to finally killing the 'man' who recreated her into a supernatural being. She senses the closets captain and winds up in Yu-Gi-Oh. So yeah, that's the basic summary. If you want to understand more of what I'm talking you guys should search for the anime Haukuoki and look for Reincarnated Past. At least before it's 2 or more pages away. Please tell me what you guys think. I Do Not Own Yu-Gi-Oh or Hakuouki (sorry I'm more used to typing it like that) Enjoy!

I have never thought things would have been taken this far. After sensing for the nearest energy of the Shinsengumi captains I followed it to a new world. Everything seems like it is in the 21st century. I'm walking on the sidewalk browsing through stores, until I bumped into a boy with wild spiky tri-colored hair. I gain my balance back but the boy fell back. "A-omph." He exclaimed before hitting the ground. I ran to his side holding out my hand. "I'm sorry, I was thinking of something else. Are you okay?" I apologized. He smiled as he took my hand and hauled himself up. Brushing his clothes off he looked back to me. "That's alright I wasn't really paying attention to where I was going either. What's your name?" He asked politely. "I'm Haro Usagani. What's yours?" His smile widens, "I'm Yugi Muto." At that exact moment I saw another man standing next to him. He looked similar but older, he is also transparent. I stare into his eyes gathering information. Recently I've figured that I had other powers that I haven't used yet. One of them is that is if I stare into a human or sprit's eyes for a couple seconds I can gather basic information like their name, age, and personality. "Yugi Muto and Yami Yugi, it is nice to meet the both of you." I say shaking his hand. They both stared at me in awe. "Wait how did you know?" Yugi asked leaving his mouth agape. I put my index finger to my lips. "It's a secret. You'll have to prove that I can trust you before I can reveal it." I say. His face brightens up again, "You seem nice. Do you want to be my friend?" Yugi asked me. I give a quizzical look before hesitantly replying, "O-okay."

Yugi then led me to his grandfather's shop. Which he said was the most awesome place in Domino city. "You'll meet my other friends there too. I only left to run an errand." He said. After a turn of another corner for the fifth time at least I see a large sign for games. 'Yep, that's gotta be the place he's talking about.' I thought as we entered through the entrance. An unfamiliar voice greeted us. "Hey Yug! ...Who's this girl?" A blonde guy said pointing to me. "Oh right, she's my new friend. Haro this is Joey, Tristan, and Tea. Joey, Tristan, Tea this is Haro." Yugi introduced gesturing to each of his friends who lined up to see me. "Hi, I'm Tea, nice to meet you Haro." She greets. I return the greeting, "I know. It's nice to meet you too. And you Joey and Tristan, right?" They guys grinned. "Yep that's us." Joey confirmed. I turn to Yugi, "So was there any other reason why you wanted to come here?" "Huh?" He sheepishly rubbed the back of his head. "Well, I knew what it was, but now I forgot. Did you have any important business to go to?" Yugi remarked. I looked away. The feeling of the Shinsengumi captains were still somewhere nearby, so I decided to spend some time with Yugi and his friends to get to know Domino city.

"Where are you from?" Tristan questioned as all eyes were on me. "I'm from Otake." I lied. "Really?! What's it like there?" Tea asked, hands pulled up to her chest. "Uh, like any other place." I say unconfident as she gives me a confused look. "So there's nothing awesome there? Are there any duelers at least?" I raise a brow. 'Duelers? What kind of place is this?' I thought. I make eye contact with Tea searching information on duelers. "Oh, not many. I don't know what the game is about really. I only heard that it was a card game." I answer. Of course I was lying about the few duelers there. I really don't want to have to go into someone's head again unless it's necessary. It also takes more concentration to search for more specific information, I guess it makes sense cause there can be thousands of things in the human brain storage. Then I remembered that this store is a duel monsters trading place. But I want to stop stalling on card games; they can't solve all of the world's problems. Especially not mine's.

So I bring something else up, "I'm still new here. So can you guys show me around here?" I ask as sweetly as I could. "Sure." Yugi chirped. I nodded and head toward the door. "C'mon I want to see what Domino city is like." I exclaim half faking my smile. They all nod to each other then follow me out.

After 2 hours just showing me buildings, their school, and so on we took a break at a café. "Man, that was actually fun! Tristan you should really try catching up to us." Joey bantered. Tristan was heaving himself onto the outdoor chair. "How can I keep up when you all just disappear every 4 seconds? You're there next to me one second then you guys just appear 5 stores away!" Tristan huffed. "Thanks for showing me around you guys. I hope it wasn't trouble." I thank. "No problem. But it's getting dark. We all should go home for the day." Tea huffed looking at the dark blue and still darkening sky. "You're right. But it's a Friday why don't we go to Haro's place for a visit?" Joey suggested. My face and body became stiff. I don't have a place to stay at. Heck, I just appeared here a couple hours ago! "Actually, I need to tell you guys something. Can Yami come out too?" I ask. Tea, Joey and Tristan all look at me with big frog's eyes. "Wait how does she know about Yami? Is she psychic or somethin'?!" Joey boomed. "Yeah, I've been wondering that too but, I didn't want to be rude and you said that we had to gain your trust." Yugi explained looking at me questionably.

My eyes emphasized that I was going to say something serious so everyone gets quiet. I parted my lips to let out my secret to them but a black streak flashes across my face in between Yugi's and mine. Luckily anyone was hardly out; I turn my head to the shattered glass that had steam rising from its intruder. I have an idea of what it was, a monster that was created by that evil man then locked up in a cell next to mine long ago. "Everyone leave now." I say in a low wary voice. Unfortunately to my luck they were stupid enough to say some brave words. "No Haro, we're helping you take down that thing." A lower male voice sounded behind me. It was Yami Yugi in place of Yugi Muto. I send them my most terrifying serious glare. "There is nothing you can do. All four of you go home now. I will handle this myself." I instructed, but they stood their ground. It was too late to say anything else. The monster bursts from the shattered glass toward us. I hold my hand toward Yugi and the others creating a barrier to keep them in and safe. "Hey, let us help Haro! You can't do this alone!" Yami yelled through the barrier walls. I ignore him. The creature before me is on all fours, it looked like a disgustingly warped bobcat, its eyes having scars running down each side through the iris.

I held my hands out as my twin blades fell into my grasp. It began to circle me, like what that man did to me before I came here. Stopping it races toward me, though making one swift move I cut through its neck to the lower ribcage. It howled horribly in pain as it turned to smoke. I let down the barrier. Everyone fell to their knees, even Yami who turned back into Yugi. "You see now? Can your duel monster handle that? This isn't the first time I've seen those creatures, you all should have went home when I told you to." Tossing my blades in the air they vanish. I face them, anger and regret was all I felt for them. I had said beforehand that they should have gone home, I even protected them as they stood staring in fear at the creature and I. Yet it was partially my fault as well thinking I could trust them. I glance at the glass that had broken from the monster's crash. Thinking of what it had looked like before the shards raise up and pieced themselves back together to its former look. I face the other way from Yugi and his friends. "I'll have to erase your memories soon. Keep that in mind." I walk to who knows where until I hear a faint "Wait." I turned halfway to meet Yugi panting. "Thank you." He continued straightening up. "What is there to thank me for? By tomorrow you'll all forget about this event." I say coldly. Shaking his head Yugi protested. "No, you kept us safe. Even though you tried to send us home and we stayed, you saved us." I scoff, "So you're saying that you thought I to let you die?" Taken aback as I expected Yugi backed away a step, "Agh, that's not what I meant. I was just scared to death. And Yami was afraid too, for your safety… But when I saw you look fearlessly in the monster's eyes and fight. I admit I was surprised. Almost anyone would have run away."

I frowned. "Yugi, this is going to be the last time we'll see each other." I state firmly. His face showed more shock. "But why!? I thought you were my friend." I cross my arms. "Were'. Not anymore." Yugi's eyes become watery. "Please don't go. We just met and we had fun. Why do you have to leave now?" Guilt started growing in my gut; the only reason why I befriended him in the first place was just to use him and his other friends to find my own. I sigh turning away before looking back to him. "Listen Yugi, I'm not here for the normal reasons a person would. I never planned to stay here. Put simply I only used you and your friends." I admit heartlessly. Yugi tried as hard as he could to hold back his tears, it was obvious. His hands are tightly clenched and he's looking down. Everyone else came just in time to hear my last sentence. Hurt faces spread as they stared disbelieving at me. Turning away I say one more time. "I'll erase all of your memories tonight." Then I left.

As much as I hurt them it was more painful to say those things to my new friends. I had promised to stay strong to Arata when I was royalty as a child; I don't need to get any more innocent people to get mixed up in my mess, which means that I am on my own until I can finally find the Shinsengumi. After all I also promised that I would stop searching until I find them. I only hope that they can wait for me.

I must say as nervous as I am I actually look forward to reviews and comments! I'll make another chapter as soon as I can. till next time. Don't forget to tell me what you think (if you want to).
