A/N: Hello people, I'm starting the Battle City arc as soon as possible! If you reader are reading tis, and haven't read "A TV Show to Reality: Duelist Kingdom!" I highly suggest for you not to read this one yet. You'll be kinda confused, so just go to my profile and read. BTW, to one of my fellow reviewers, yes my first chapter from A TV Show to Reality: Duelist Kingdom, is a Pleasantville reference. I forgot to mention that to the readers, so sorry everyone. Now that that's over with, let's begin! Thanks.

~Chapter One~

Shana's P.O.V

It's been a week since the Duelist Kingdom. Geez, I've missed so much. So much crazy things happened to my sister. She fought pretty hard to get my soul back.

Everything seems normal. Only…she keeps on avoiding Ryou. Of course, she's still pretty mad about Bakura…murdering Pegasus.

When my sister and I are walking down the hallway in school today, we hear, "Shaina, Shana, wait up!" My sister continues to walk away as briskly as she could. We both knew what the voice belonged to. Ryou.

I'm the only one who stopped for him. He looks crestfallen as Shaina continues to walk away. "She's still angry…?" he asks sadly. I nod, grim. "She really isn't big on murder you know…" I say. "Is she angry at me?" Ryou asks sadly.

I shake my head quickly. "No, of course not! She's just not ready to face Bakura yet. He'll take immediate control over you if you get a chance to talk to her." I try to say reassuringly.

He turns slight pink on the face. "Oh…that's what I was trying to catch you guys for. The Spirit wants to say sorry."

I look at him with a surprised expression. "You and Bakura are communicating with each other?" Back in the anime, they hardly even converse with each other.

Ryou nods. "He's been pretty soft since the incident. All he just wants to say is…sorry. But he, or, we just want to know why she's so angry. Don't you think she's…overreacting?"

I scowl angrily. "Ryou, you of all people to say that! She isn't, 'overreacting'! Murder is a big thing, especially if you're just killing someone for a selfish reason!" I say defensively. Then, the Ring appears on Ryou's neck. Sigh. Here's Bakura.

"But tell me…I just had never seen your sister angry as this." He says in his changed harsh voice. I cross my arms.

"It's just because she knows your better than that Bakura. You're higher above murder. She knows that you can be a better person. In fact, if she was never here, you would've done more horrible things." I say.

Bakura looks down. "There's she at it again…always trying to see the good in people. I really don't understand why she even tries. I can never change." He whispers, ashamed. I can feel my eyes softening.

I put my hands on his shoulders. "No Bakura. You can. With some help, you can. Now if you're really sorry, go up to Shaina and tell her. Don't just wait!" I advise. He nods. "I see…" He immediately runs after Shaina. I smile. Everything is going to be just fine.

Shaina's P.O.V

I walk as quickly as I could from Ryou. I know it seems harsh, but it just brings back horrible memories. As I walk, I bump into someone.

"Sorry." I mutter. "Hey…it's you!" I hear a gruff voice say. I look up, seeing the huge figure of Ushio. I scoff. Oh yeah, he's out of the hospital. "What do you want Ushio?" I ask coldly.

He gives me a stupid grin. "I just noticed that pretty locket around your neck…it looks like a lot of money." He says, pointing at it. I clutch it. "What are you trying to bring up?" I ask suspiciously.

"I'm just saying, Yugi never paid the debt he owes to me!" I scowl. "He owes you nothing!" I say. Ushio gives me an angry expression. "Yeah? Well guess what? I'm taking that locket of yours." He snaps his fingers and five of his goons surround me.

I glance back and forth at all of them. "Six against one…that's so cowardly." I say unimpressively. "Get the locket!" he orders. They all seize me at once, but I duck, making them crash into each other. They all groan, their heads colliding.

I laugh, and I run away a quickly as I can from them. "Get her you assholes!" I hear Ushio shout.

I run in zigzags across the hallways, not having a clue where I am going. I was confident that I lost them. But my victory is short lived.

I glance back over my shoulder, seeing that the goons are still chasing me. Then, I crash into someone. I look up, and joy, it's Ushio. He picks me up by my shirt, and punches me on the face. I crash into the wall by his blow.

Ouch. I can feel the blood spurting from my nose. He snatches the locket from me, and laughs with his servants as they walk away.

"Damn…come back here…" I mutter. I can see two figures rushing towards me.

Normal P.O.V

Seto Kaiba is just walking inside the Domino High School like any other normal day. Then he sees the group of Ushio and his goons. It's them again, wonder what they're so excited about. Kaiba thought. He watches them laughing, Ushio taking a locket in hand. They all laugh, walking away.

Then, he sees Shaina slumped against the wall with a bloody face. "What the-" Suddenly, someone bumps into him. He turns around, seeing Ryou, who's actually Bakura. His eyes widen when he sees Shaina on the floor, beaten up.

Wordlessly, they both rush to her. "What the hell did those bastards did to you?!" Bakura asks harshly. Kaiba glances at him, never recalling the quiet British boy to use that kind of language.

"Not much time, just get my locket back please…and don't do anything to them please…" Shaina mumbles. Bakura gets up, and goes after the direction of Ushio and his gang. He can't go alone… Kaiba thought.

He glances over to Shaina. "Knowing you Shaina, I know that you can handle yourself. Go to the nurse if you're hurt, I'm going with Ryou." He tells her calmly. She nods in reply. Then, Kaiba walks briskly after Bakura.

As the run throughout the school, they finally catch Ushio and his gang. "I finally found you…" Bakura says, eyeing them evilly. "Give back the locket or else." Kaiba threatens. Ushio laughs. "Really? British boy and rich boy want to take my gang and I on for a puny locket? Where's your pride?"

They all surround the two. "I trust that you know how to punch." Kaiba mutters to Bakura. "Oh I know more than that…" Bakura replies ominously. Then, the goons lurch for the two. That's when shit just got real.

Kaiba punches one in the gut, and he falls to the floor like a bowling pin. Another comes up from behind and tries to attack the brunette, but he steps to the side, and grabs the guy by the neck, squeezing his pressure points, causing him to knock out.

As for Bakura, he easily took out some goons as well, and corners Ushio. "You'll pay deeply for what you've done…" Bakura hisses, his Ring glowing. Then, he remembers Shaina's words. Don't do anything to them please… her words echo in his head.

Bakura eyes Ushio angrily, and his Ring stops glowing. "You're not worth my time anyway." He then kicks him in the stomach, causing Ushio to let get of the locket. Bakura picks it up, turning to Kaiba.

He nods in quiet approval, and they both make their way to the nurses' office.

Shaina's P.O.V

I sit on the patients' bed, watching Ms. Hiro bustle back and forth. "Dear oh dear, how in earth could you just slam into a door that hard…?" she asks, putting a bandage over my nose. Then, I see Bakura and Kaiba walk in, and I smile acknowledging them.

"Um, Ms. Hiro, can I have a private word with Kaiba and, er, Ryou?" I ask politely. She looks over to them and sighs. "Oh, alright." She moves out of the room, moving onto the other patients.

Bakura shows my locket. "Here, we got it back for you. We went through the hell of trouble to get for you." Kaiba says in his normal coldness. I smile, taking my necklace, feeling tears streaming down my face.

"T-thanks so much, I really have no idea of what I would've done without this…" I say, with my voice crackling. The two boys look at me strangely. "What do you mean…?" Bakura asks curiously.

I look out the window for a moment, looking up at the clouds. "I guess I should tell someone my story now." I say, wiping the tears from my eyes. I turn back to them.

"This locket came from my father…he was an explorer who journeyed across the world. He made a lot of money off from his job, so my family lived in a nice house out in the woods. My dad also traveled often, so when he visits us, he spends all of the time he can with Shana and I."

I pause for a moment, taking a deep breath.

"One day, when mom and Shana was out, I had the whole day with dad. It was so fun at first, we were just having some family time…until they came. These five men in black ski masks…came into our house with guns. I remember that cold gun pointing to my head." I say, shuddering.

"They threatened to shoot me if dad couldn't give him the money. He did give them some, and threw at their faces. While they were distracted, dad and I ran upstairs. He hid me inside the clothes hamper. I remember what he told me. "Shaina, whatever you do, don't make a sound. We're going to play a game of hide and seek."' I can feel my eyes watering again.

"I did what dad told me…I kept quiet. I heard some yells and gunshots. I heard footsteps walking throughout the house. After a few minutes, everything was quiet. I crawled out of my hiding spot…and I see splatters of red. I walk out to the hallway and that's when I see-" I stop remembering the horrible moment. I press on with my story.

"T-that's when I saw dad…lying on the floor, covered in red. He was barely alive, he was shot in the stomach. H-his last words were… "Shaina…I don't know what to tell you…but daddy isn't always going to be here…call 911 as soon as possible and just know that I love you and your sister and mommy..." By the time I called 911…he was dead. Those thieves took everything from the house…except this locket.

"They never did found those, murderers. They never did. Mom fell into a state of depression, and became a housekeeper. I took some therapy for a couple of years. Even though it was a traumatizing day, I stayed strong. I knew that dad wouldn't want me to fall into depression because of him…" I can feel tears streaming down my face more.

The boys listened to my story quietly, regret written on their faces. "I don't know what to tell you Shaina…" Kaiba says quietly, the iciness from his eyes completely gone.

"…" Bakura is completely silent.

I fall into their arms, and hug them. "Thanks you. Thank you so much." I whisper. The boys both give me an awkward pat on the back. It doesn't seem much, but I know. I know that they care.

A/N: *Sniffle* Man, it was hard writing this chapter. This is where Shaina's and Shana's past are finally revealed. It was very sad to be honest. I kind of got their past as on inspiration from Angel Beats! (Watch it, I highly recommend.) I didn't really use much reference, but that's about it. Review everyone… *Blows nose*
