Yugi…no, you are not Yugi. You are mou hitori no Yugi. The other Yugi. You live inside the Millennium Puzzle, right? Yugi, the real one, tells me about you. He says you are the one who duels. You share a body and take over for him. You defeated Kaiba the day Jii-chan had his heart attack. You were the one who battled Bakura the night when all our souls got trapped inside the cards. You are the one who defeated Peagues and won the prize money for my sister's operation.
Arigato, mou hitori no Yugi. I don't think I ever thanked you for that. And I don't know how I can. You saved my sister's eyesight, and you do not even know her. But you cared about me enough to do that for me.
You care about all of us is what Yugi says. He says you protect him. I should thank you for that as well. Yugi has a habit of getting into trouble. He gets into situations that can be dangerous, deadly even. And I can't always be there to protect him. You protect us too, right? I heard your voice that day of the fire, when Yugi refused to leave without the puzzle. You were the one who told me to use the rod to pull the puzzle out. You saved all of us that day.
Yugi wasn't going to leave without you, and Honda and I weren't going to leave without Yugi. We all would have died that day.
And you tried to save me again. You won back my Red Eyes from the Rare Hunter. But, mou hitori no Yugi, I cannot take it back. You won it fair and square, and I would not stand for you to just hand it back to me. I am not worthy of Red Eyes. And until I regain Red Eyes' respect, I want you to keep it.
You are my goal, mou hitori no Yugi. I want to be as strong as you. You are the strongest dueler I have ever seen. Far stronger than me. You easily defeated me in Duelist Kingdom, and if we were to duel today, you would easily beat me too.
But that's okay. I will train hard until I can match up to your strength. Just like it is Kaiba's goal to one day defeat, I also want to defeat you.
It's probably nothing more than a stupid dream, though. I will never defeat you. But, it's nice to dream, right?
Mou hitori no Yugi…please, help me earn Red Eyes back. Please, teach me what it's like to be a True Duelist. Please help me be strong. I want to be a great duelist. Jii-chan taught me about duel monsters, and the heart of the cards, but you were the one who encouraged me. You were the one who told me to be strong.
I want to please you, mou hitori no Yugi. I want to be strong; you tell me I am strong, but I am not. I want to become what you think of me. I want to be able to help you take on the bad guys Yugi's always talking about. I want to be able to stand on my own. I will help as best I can.
One day, mou hitori no Yugi, we will duel. I hope I can make you proud. I hope I can earn back Red Eyes.
I hope I can learn what it means to be a True Duelist.
