Darkone: Hi people! I'm back with a re-do of the prequel. I got really mixed-up. So with the help of LazerWulf I got back on track and got this chapter out! But it's (the chapter not the story itself) going to be short...

Yami: Any chance of telling us WHY it's so short?

Yugi: I know! We waited all this time for a chapter the size of your head?

Yami: I don't know, that would be pretty big...

Darkone: Your hair is bigger!

[LazerWulf pops in from out of nowhere]

LazerWulf: Break it up, you two!

Yugi: Who are you?

LazerWulf: I'm Darkone's beta-reader. I'm co-writing this story with her. The plot is hers; I'm just helping to expand it.

Darkone: Anyways, this whole chapter is just going to be Shadi's POV and he's going to explain what's going on.

LazerWulf: First, a disclaimer – Yu-Gi-Oh belongs to Kazuki Takahashi. Darkone owns Amme and Emma, and I own a girl named Lyn, but she won't be appearing in this story.

Chapter 1: Shadi's Story.

Emma seems no different than when I visited last. She is helpful, strong willed and kind. Everything that Amme was. But she is also a bit shy.

There is no doubt in my mind. Emma is Amme reincarnated. She has Amme's spirit. I should know. I gave it to her when she was 15, the same age Amme was when she first met the Pharaoh.

It's been almost a year since I first saw Emma. I was roaming the globe, investigating disturbances in the Shadow Realm, when I found her. Unbeknownst to her, her soul was being attacked by the demons of her past life, and was not strong enough to fend them off. She was going through a serious depression, and she could not seem to pull herself out of it. Seeing this, I summoned my own Shadow Magic, and infused her soul with that of Amme.

Since then, Amme has been asleep. Emma is not yet aware of her presence, only that she is stronger than she was a year ago. Amme was supposed to wake up some time ago, around when Yugi solved the Millennium Puzzle, but there were... complications.

I had arranged for Emma and Yugi to go to the same school and be in the same classes. In order for Amme to wake up, Emma has to look Yugi straight in the eyes.

But it seems that Emma won't look anyone in the eyes. Her depression has still left emotional scars that cause her to withdraw from anyone who tried to get close. Yugi, being the kind boy that he is, saw her loneliness, and tried to befriend her. She would talk to them and everything just fine, but she would look at their facial expressions and hair and anything but the eyes.

For Yugi and the Pharaoh to completely beat evil, they need the help of both Emma and Amme.

THE END.

Darkone: I know it's short, but it's just a summary or something like that.

Yami: I'd say that was about twice the size of your head...

Darkone: But at least my brain is twice the size of yours!

Yugi: Calm down! Geez, you two should be separated or something!

Yami: And what's with the whole "disturbances in the Shadow Realm" thing? It sounds like something out of "Star Wars"!

Darkone: Don't look at me! That was LazerWulf's idea!

Yami: Well, it's a dumb one.

[LazerWulf thwacks Yami on the head]

Yami: Hey! What was that for!

LazerWulf: For negative criticism. I'll not have you degrade Darkone's or my writing.

Darkone: Hah! [Sticks tongue out at Yami] Take that you old mummy!

Yami: Old mummy? I'll show you an old mummy!

[Yami chases Darkone around the room]

Yami: Come back here!

Darkone: Tee hee! Come and get me!

[Yugi and LazerWulf sweatdrop]

LazerWulf: Umm... let's leave them alone for now.

Yugi: Until next chapter, Review!
