Secret Chapter 1: Yuugi's Dream

The darkness around me was almost tangible. The sensation of my floating body made me feel as if I was suspended by a string while I lay upon soft currents of air. My eyes remained shut and I knew I would not have to wait long now. This dream had only just begun.

A heartfelt voice spoke out to me. "Yuugi…" She sounded loving and kind. "Yuugi…" She repeated, her tone having a longing strain to it. I wanted to reach out and call to her in return, but my body refused to budge even the slightest. I wanted to find out who could be behind the mask of darkness. Oh why, why could I not open my eyes to look at her?

I felt a warm body press up against mine, curling up against my chest as she leaned her head on my shoulder. How I longed to wrap my restrained arms around her, to caress this being. "Yuugi…Where are you…?" She whispered into my ear.

My eyes opened to a semi-dark familiar room, lit by moonlight from the window above my desk. There on the desk I had an unfinished puzzle that I had been working on before bed. I glanced at the clock next to my bed and let out a tired groan. It was three in the morning. I plopped my head back onto my pillow, closing my eyes to try and get some sleep.

This was the sixth night in a row that I had this dream.

Ryou sat at a desk in his room with a lamp shining down on an old and ancient book. "Bakura…Are you sure this will work?" He asked shyly. His eyes looked over the hand written note clenched in his hand. The words were placed neatly on the paper, giving the reader a challenge to a game of Duel Monsters.

The silhouette of the darker half of Ryou appeared behind his shoulders. His eyes were filled with fury as he had grown annoyed with his hikari questioning him. He had gone through the trouble of stealing the book of ancient writings from the museum and convincing Ryou to send the blasted note. "Yes." He said testily. "It will work. Just do it." This time his voice was a demand.

Ryou jumped a little and nodded. He had written the chant from the book onto the note. A smile played on his lips. He would finally find the one he was meant for, if this actually worked for him. "Alright…" He started, looking to the book as he folded up the note. "Narau Saki La Sou Otu." He chanted quietly. Nothing happened for him, making the British boy frown, until he raised the note up to his lips and gently blew on it. To his surprise, the note caught fire and burned away in his hand.

Both light and dark sides smiled at the note's disappearance. Bakura gave a laugh as he watched the cinders fade away, knowing that his other half was going to bring him the ultimate power. It was amazing how his luck had turned out, being paired with a boy who could summon the Fire Guardian. He would allow them their fun, before finding that blasted Time Spirit.

My mind would not rest. The dream was beginning again, only vaguely striking me as odd. The dream had never occurred twice in one night. "Yami…" That sweet voice called out in the darkness. A small gasp escaped my lips from my surprise. She was calling for my darker half. "Yuugi…" She changed her wording again, now saying my name.

I could feel my hands ball up into fists as I did my best to open my eyes. My success was short lived as I opened my eyes widely, but then had to resort to squinting. There, white light blinded me for the moment. I raised my hand up to shield my eyes from the pure glow and found to my amazement that I could move my body in this dream. "Who are you?" I called out in return, trying to find this maiden whom had visited me all of these nights.

The voice was sad. "I wish I could be with you." Behind my hand I could feel the vibrations of her voice echoing in the room we were in. There in the center of this blank walled room was the source of the arresting radiance and voice. The light was so bright, it hurt to even think of looking at it.

I lowered my hand and closed my eyes to call out to her once more. "You can be! Just tell me who you are!" I called to her with all my might. It was then that the light extinguished itself. I was plunged into the darkness once more, but I was still not awake.

Where the light once glowed, a girl now stood, her body giving off a soft golden shine as she stood in front of me. Her body was clad in gold, from her the gold draped in her hair as a golden hairbands and circlets, to her golden dress that covered the majority of her body, aside from her fingertips, shoulders, and the diamond shaped cut out along her middle. Her dark hair flowed around her without any wind and her amethyst eyes were partially closed as tears filled them slowly. "Yuugi…Where are you?" Her voice was distant, as if she was not as close to me as she appeared.

I found the strength in my legs to run towards her and grab her, wrapping my arms around the girl's soft body. One hand encircled around her waist, while the other rested on the back of her head as I held her close to me. "I'm right here and I won't ever leave you." I promised her. I never felt closer to anyone in the world before now.

She sighed in my arms, leaning into me as her tears ran onto my shoulder. "Yuugi…Who am I kidding?" Her voice was even more distant now than it was before. "You aren't even real…" Her voice was an echo as she pulled her head back and looked me in the eyes. Her eyes seemed to be like jewels that had been surrounded by diamonds that ran down her cheeks. "I wish I could be with you, Yami…." In these final words, her eyes closed slowly, her body leaning in to kiss my lips in the softest, yet most loving way I could have ever imagined. Her warmth pressed upon me for a moment longer before she disappeared into dust in my arms.

My eyes unwillingly welled up with tears as my arms lingered in a position that once held this girl in my arms. I clenched my fists and pulled my hands in close to my body. "I am real! I'm here waiting for you! I will always wait for you!" I shouted to the darkness. It was cold without her light. I shut my eyes tightly, praying I could hear her voice one more time.

I could hear snickering from a few feet from me. I slowly opened my eyes, finding myself lying in my bed, my arms wrapped around my pillow in a tight embrace, and my lips against the soft cloth. I suddenly realized that I had turned my pillow into my kissing partner and with annoyance, I pushed the cushion away and groggily glared at Yami, who had seen my love scene. I flipped over the side of the bed and shook my head. "I don't want to hear it." I said, as roughly as I could.

I had just gotten dumped in a dream by a girl I did not even know. I felt like I could have just melted into the ground or disappear into dust, just like she had. I could still feel her soft skin on mine. I need to get dressed and out to school, the clock showing me it was almost eight in the morning.

Tired and Depressed: What a way to start out the day.

I managed to get to school without a hitch. The bags under my eyes seemed to be larger than I could hide by any means. The millennium puzzle seemed heavy around my neck, and I almost wanted to take it off and forget about it as I sat down at my desk. Yami would only make fun of me and I was in no mood for it. "Hi Yuugi!" A high voice rang in my ears like an unwanted alarm clock.

I winced a little, but managed to clear up my face before I turned to look at the tall brunette. A smile managed itself on my lips enough to wish her well. "Good morning, Anzu." I nodded gently, leaning back in my chair a little.

Anzu looked at me with a hint of worry. I knew that I should have iced my eyes or something to sooth the darkness away from hanging under my hues so obviously. "Still having that nightmare, Yuugi?" She asked, her voice colored with concerned.

I had not told Anzu or anyone besides Yami about my dream. I had merely stated it was a nightmare I could not remember. I only wished that was the case. "Yeah…" I admitted to my childhood friend. That was all I was going to disclose.

She looked at me thoughtfully for a moment before a bright smile accompanied her bright sapphire eyes. "I know! How about we go on a date to the museum today?" She raised her index finger as she grinned at her own idea. "Maybe Ishizu has some advice or something." She nodded happily. I suddenly noticed she had now leaned down closer to me.

My instinct was to move back a little to give her some space. I knew that she had a crush on my darker half, and I once had a crush on her. But, when I found out that I would not be the one she adored, I knew I had to move on. Sadly enough, I was sure my subconscious was making this golden girl in my dreams to haunt me for my choice. "Sure." I said after taking in a deep breath. I was sure that this was not related to anything that Ishizu could help me with, but talking to her might help.

"Great!" She exclaimed, lifting herself up and began moving back to her desk. "Meet me after school around 3:30." She spoke with a gentle wave of her hand as she moved a few desks over and finally taking her seat.

I glanced at the clock on the wall. It was still early in the morning. I knew that if she needed the time after school, she was most likely going to change. I wondered how long she had been planning asking me on this date, since she had obviously planned her clothes ahead of time. I hoped it was not going to be like the date she had with Yami.

Sometimes, I hated it when I was right.

I walked out of the school a little after 3:40 to meet up with Anzu. I decided that I could try and finish a game with Joey to give Anzu time to change into the clothes she wanted. There at the school's entrance, Anzu stood smiling at me. She had a yellow tank top on under a pink jacket and she wore matching pink shorts. Her black thigh highs went up her leg to almost meet with her shorts. I gave an internal groan. She was even wearing the same outfit she had worn with Yami. "Hey, Anzu. Sorry I'm late." I said, trying to sound both chipper and apologetic.

Anzu flashed me a smile. "No problem, Yuugi." She said with her nearly-always-cheerful attitude. "You ready to go?" She asked. It did make me feel a little better to at least be with her while she was joyful. Maybe I could forget about my dream girl for at least a few minutes. I nodded and began to walk with her towards the downtown area.

Most of our walk was in silence. There was a new arcade that had opened up, but I felt more of just going to our destination than checking out another place that Anzu could challenge someone to dance. Knowing my luck, I would have to duel them to get them to leave her alone. More to the point, Yami would.

Anzu shot me a glance back and smiled. "Hey, do you want to grab some ice cream after we hit the museum?" She asked me with a smile. I almost was certain that nothing could put a damper on her spirits today. That was until I saw someone coming towards Anzu who seemed to be completely zoned out.

"Anzu—" I started, but my words were too late. The girl that had been walking towards us collided with the tall brunette with a thud, which sent the shorter girl straight to the ground. I expected Anzu to be cheerful and offer the girl a hand. To my surprise, I was wrong.

"Hey, watch where you're going, please?" Anzu said, obviously annoyed by the fact that this passerby had knocked the wind out of her. I rolled my eyes a little, surprised that someone we did not even know had taken the cheerfulness out of Anzu.

The voice that came forth from the girl made my heart stop. "Anzu! It's so cool to meet you!" She spoke enthusiastically, causing more than just my attention to be drawn to her. It was that same voice that called to me in my dream every night. I had to see her for myself.

I moved forward from behind Anzu to look upon this girl. Her long dark hair hung about her like a dark robe and her bright amethyst eyes were lit with joy. There was no mistaking this girl. She was the one I had held so tightly last night in my dream. All she was missing was her golden clothes and accessories. I opened my mouth to try and choke out words to her, but her attention was fully on me now, which made my heart pound against my ribcage. Her eyes ignited once more with excitement at seeing me, and I wondered if she recognized me from the dream. She grabbed my hand and began to speak quickly, "Oh! Yuugi Mouto! It's so awesome to meet the champion of Duelist Kingdom! I heard about you through my good friend, Mai." She seemed so very happy until she mentioned Mai's name.

I did not let her discomfort affect me, because she had touched and she was real. Her skin was as soft as it had been in my dream, and the best part was that she had not disappeared when she parted with me. Her hands fell together and she gave the cutest of stances. I wanted to reach out and hold her. However, one of her statements had me confused. "Duelist Kingdom?" I repeated, searching for clarity.

She seemed to realize a mistake in her words and changed the subject. "I mean, it's so awesome that you beat Seto Kaiba." She said, equally as enthusiastic as she had been before.

I did not question her further, and a small part of me was saddened by her admiration. It had not been me who defeated Seto, but Yami did in my stead. Just like all of my duels. "Thanks, but Seto was a great opponent." It probably would not have bothered me so much if her voice did not ring in my ears of Yami's name instead of mine. The jealousy I felt building up inside of me dissipated as I noticed she was looking straight into my eyes. I had to finally know her name. "Well, you know our names." I tried to not sound too excited as I asked further. "Why not tell us yours?"

She seemed more than happy to share. ""My name is Rhea; I'm new in town. Mind showing me around?" I noticed that this time she had not directed her question to just me, but I silently mulled over the name in my head. Rhea… The image of her being close to me once more surfaced itself in my head and a red stain coated my cheeks unwillingly. I nodded, unsure of what my response might come out as, should I let myself speak. Anzu thankfully agreed with me.

We started back on towards our path, but I slowed myself down as the shadowy figure of Yami spoke to me from behind my shoulder. "You know I try to not look into your dreams, Yuugi." He began, his deeper voice only audible in my head. "But since you had told me about it, I could not help and watch the last one. This girl…She is…" He said, watching her as she walked with Anzu.

I nodded slowly. "I know, Yami. She's the one I have been dreaming about." A smile crawled on to my lips. I was more amazed at the fact that she was more than just a dream.

Yami gave a little smirk. "Yuugi, she called out my name right before she showed up." He pointed out, reminding me of my most recent dream. "Perhaps it is not you she seeks?" He was being more ruthless to me than ever today. At least when Anzu had showed him affection, he ignored it for my sake.

But, perhaps it was because he could tell that my heart would not be swayed. "I don't care, Yami." I said, the smile unable to be erased from my face. "I will always wait for her." My voice was filled with confidence, which seemed to bring both happiness and anger to Yami. I did not understand why he would feel like that.

Rhea realized that I was no longer in pace with them and she turned around, fluttering that lovely hair of hers turn to face me. "Yuugi! Aren't you coming along?" She said, her smile infectious and eyes batting softly. I nodded and chased after the pair of girls to catch up to them. The smile Rhea gave me when I joined up next to her made the nights of restless sleep seem like they were in the distant past.

"I will always wait for you."
