The Millennium Cross meets the Millennium Puzzle

Chapter 1: A Friend Comes Back

Yugi is now the number one duelist, since he beat Kaiba. Right now, he was just glad that his grandfather was okay.

Now he was on way back home from school with his friends. Suddenly an American huskie jumped playfulily on top of Yugi and licked him.

"Hey there, where did you come?" Yugi asked, laughing as the dog stuggled up to him.

"You okay, Yug'?" Joey asked.

"I'm fine," he answered as he contiuned to giggle.

"Ruth! Where are you?" called a female voice. A girl with midnight blue hair and blue eyes approahed.

"There you are, Ruth! I'm so sorry if she hurt you. She's just a little too friendly," she said, pulling the dog off Yugi.

"It's fine. No harm done. She's really cute... " Yugi started as he got up, but stop at midsentence.

"Yuki?"

"Yugi?"

The two stared at each other. Joey, Tea, and Tristan were confused. Did Yugi know this girl?

"I can't believe it. Yuki, you're back!" Yugi said as the two hugged.

Yup, he knew her.

"Long time no see. Look at you. You're still as cute as ever," she said, making him blush.

"Well, look at you. You've really grown up," Yugi told her.

"Thanks, I see you have made some friends since I left," the girl noticed the others.

"Oh right, sorry about that. Yuki, these are my friends, Joey, Tea, and Tristan. Guys, this is my old childhood friend, Yukika, or Yuki for short," Yugi introduced them.

"Pleasure to meet you," Yuki said.

"Same. We're leave and let you and Yugi catch up," said Tea, pushing the guys away.

Yugi and Yuki went to the park to talk.

"It's been ages when your family left Domino City. How are they?" asked Yugi.

"Not so well," Yuki asked.

"What's wrong? Are your parents okay?"

"They're fine. It's my three sisters: Darcy, Mary, and Kisa."

"What happened? Will they be okay?"

"There was a fire six months ago. Mom, Dad, and I came out with minor injuries. Darcy is in coma, Mary is missing, and Kisa is as far as we know dead. We came back in order to help Darcy wake-up. She's the only one who has more of a chance to come back. This place is also the place where we all wanted to come back when we could. Mary find her way back here too," Yuki explained, "But don't worry about it. I didn't come just to bring depressing things. I really missed you, Yugi."

"It's fine. Beside I can visit Darcy. Though she did tease me a lot, we were still friends," Yugi told her.

"Thank you, Yugi... Yugi, what's that?" she asked, pointing to the gold upside down pyramid around his neck.

"Oh, it's the Millennium Puzzle. I solved it myself. It took me eight years," he said.

"I have something just like it," Yuki said, taking out a cross from under her shirt. It was gold with the eye on the front, it was the same size as the puzzle, and the rope was just as long too.

"My aunt gave to me. She said usually it was given to the first daughter of the family, but she couldn't have kids and I was the one with the most interest. She said it's called the Millennium Cross."

"It's pretty, and it matches you," said Yugi.

"Look, it has writing on the back of it. My aunt translated it. It said, "Our love is eternal. My heart forever belongs to you. You shall be protect by my love from all harm. I love you, my Beloved, now and forever." How romantic!"

Yugi laughed, then though of something. "Why do you come over for supper? Grandpa would love to see you again."

"I'd love to."

________________________________________________

Grandpa was happy to see Yuki. The three had dinner together and caught up from the years of separation.

Snow was also a wiz at duel monsters too. Where she had moved to, she was known as the Star Christian Duelist.

So after they ate, Yugi and Snow dueled a few games. They all finished in a tie.

Soon it was time for Yuki to leave to go home.

"See ya, Yugi!" she said, exiting the game shop.

"Come back tomorrow, Yuki!"

"No problem! Glad to see you again!"

Yuki walked to go home.

"Your destiny is beginning to turn again. What's buried within your heart shall break through and be revived once again."

"What?"

That voice she heard came from nowhere. It felt powerful, yet gentle. What was it talking about anyway?
