Back to the future

Today was the day, after so long Loretta was going back to see Yusei, she hadnt seen him in what felt like in forever, she still remembers that fateful day that she threw herself infront of Atem to protect him only to be sent into the future, meeting Yusei. Her heart belonged to Atem & Atem only but there was something about this boy that she just couldnt get out of her head, coming through the doors of the throne room where everyone was waiting for her, she was dressed in a black singlet top, a Dark Blue jacket, which sat on her shoulders like a cape, a dark blue miniskirt, knee length black leather boots, her usual gold arm bands, Sapphire studded choker & her long black hair tide up in a ponytail. The first one to spot her was Atem, he recognized her look, it was almost the same look as what he used to wear back when he was with Yugi "Wow...Loretta, is that you" "Yep...the one & only" she said flicking her hair "i might as well be prepared this time" "You look so different..." Atem couldnt believe his eyes, here was his wife standing infront of him & he didnt recognize her "Are you ready to go Loretta" said Mahad feeling really nervous about what he was going to do to the Queen , he knew if anything went went wrong he was going to be in serious trouble especially since the Pharaoh was here watching "Im ready Mahad" "Bye Loretta...be careful" said Atem putting his hand on her shoulder "I will be fine Atem, i love you" she said placing a kiss on his lips before she disappeared "Please come back to me in one piece"

New Domino City

"This place looks familiar" thought Loretta as she stood up, getting her bearings "Right now to find The Satelite, i hope i remember the way". Walking along the streets, she carefully studied the street signs & various landmarks, she began to notice that people were looking at her, she could also hear someone wolf whistling, she couldnt tell what direction it was coming from she kept on walking when she heard a familiar voice "Loretta...Is that you..." looking around to see a tall man standing across the opposite side of the road in a long white & purple trench coat & blonde spiky hair "Jack...Hey long time do see" "Wow you are looking good" he said as he ran across the road to her "Im just on my way to see Yusei, i thought i would dress up a little" she said twirling around on the ball on her foot "Do you mind if i walk with you" "sure why not".

As Jack & Loretta walked along together they continued to talk, Jack asking her about Egypt & Loretta asking Jack about his lastest duels, some of which he lost...to Yusei "Here we are, you first" "No you go first, Yusei doesnt know im here, ive come to surprise him...You didnt forget it was his Birthday did you..." "Um...No" said Jack as he blushed "Jack...hes your brother..." "Yea i know...great now i feel bad" he said rubbing the back of his neck as Loretta giggled. Opening the door & walking into the garage "Hey Yus' are you here..." "Jack...is that you..." "Yea, ive just come to say happy birthday" "Oh thank you..." "Whats the matter" "...I was hoping that another certain someone was going to be here..." he said as he blushed, looking down "poor Yusei, he thinks i havent come...ooh i have an idea" thought Loretta as she guestered to Jack to put his hands over Yusei's eyes "Hey! Whats going on! Jack what the Hell are you doing!" "Just calm down, i have a surprise for you" Jack said as he notioned for Loretta to come in, taking his hands off his eyes, he opened his eyes to see Loretta standing in the door way "Loretta...woah is that you" "Happy Birthday Yusei" she said as Yusei picking her up by the waist & spinning her around "I am so happy to see you, this is the best birthday present i could have wished for" "woah, here i got you a little something" "Aww you shouldnt have..." opening up the box to find a silver cartouche with Egyptian hieroglyphics engraved on it spelling out his name "I hope you like it " "Its so nice but what does it say" "Its your name in hieroglyphs" "I love it...Thank you" said Yusei as he put the small silver chain over his head giving her a kiss on the cheek "...Oh...Im so sorry...I-I forgot that you..." "Its ok, dont worry about it Yusei, no harm done" "How is the Pharaoh..." said Jack "Yea hes good, he's been really busy lately teaching our son about being king, hes too young to tske the throne yet but in the mean time its good to teach him about everything he has know".

It had been a long day, Loretta was exhausted, she had forgotten that the time travel worn her out so much, now it was time that Jack got going saying he was meeting up with Crow somewhere, leaving Yusei & Loretta alone. "Hey Yusei is it ok if i stay here the night?" "Oh yea sure, no problem, i have a duel in the morning..." "oh?" said Loretta raising an eyebrow "Yea im teaching some young kids how to duel, they arent old enough to ride a duel runner yet but in the mean time teaching them good strategy wont hurt" "That is so kind of you" "Yea i kinda had to" "what do you mean..." "well...I kinda got into abit of trouble after you left & as community service i had to either teach a group of kids about Duelling or go to Jail, Im so sorry Loretta" giving him a hug "Hey its ok, but what did you do" "I was caught in the city, i know that doesnt sound that bad but because we are from the Satelite we arent allowed in the city & if we got caught we get severly punished" "So why did you go into the city then if you knew what the punishment was" Loretta asked trying not to upset Yusei or start an arguement "I...I went to see my Father...I havent seen him in ten years Loretta, i miss him so much" he said as tears welled up in his eyes "come on Yusei dont cry...what if i help you" "But you..." "Im not from here so i can go into the city, i will get your Father back for you..." "...I dont know...I dont want you to get caught..." "I just want to see you happy Yusei...what does your Father look like" "Thank you so much Loretta, he looks like me but without the blone streeks in his hair" "Its the least i can do for you after you looked after me , when i came here...i forgot to tell you...turn your necklace pendant over" "I said it was no problem, i couldnt just leave you out in the cold...oh" he said looking down at his necklace & turning it over "oh...more hieroglyphs...what do these ones say" "My name...I thought it would be a nice touch because we live in different times, i would put my name on the back so you would never forget me" Loretta said blushing "Thank you Loretta, i could never forget someone like you" "Thank you Yusei" "I better get to bed, i have to be up early, night Loretta, sweet dreams" "Hey Yusei..." said Loretta blushing "what is it...everything o-" he said as he was cut off & surprised as Loretta had stepped forward & kissed him "I hope you had a good birthday" said Loretta leaving Yusei feeling overwhelmed "I did...thank you...aah that felt so good, she is so beautiful" "sweet dreams Yusei".

The next morning

Loretta awoke to hear Yusei revving the engine on his duel runner, he was getting it ready to take to show the group of kids, but something was wrong, just when he thought he had it going right the engine would stop, he did this afew times cursing at every failed attemp, "Morning Yusei...everything ok" Loretta said coming around & leaning against the door frame "Oh...Im sorry if i woke you, my duel runner isnt working like it should & i dont know whats wrong with it, i think i need to check it with my computer" he said before plugging in a cord & tapping at some keys "What does it say..." said Loretta as she watched him "oh...fewf thats good...Its says i need to put a new chip in & update the system" "What?" "Oh sorry...i forgot you dont understand any of this stuff" "See this laptop i have, well my D-Runner is just like a bigger version of my laptop, so in order to keep it going i have to every so often, replace the chips & do updates" "Oh ok...wow thats really interesting, could you imagine what Atem would say if i took something like a Laptop back with" said Loretta with a giggle, rolling her eyes at the thought of it "I...dont know if one would work back in Egypt" "Yea you are right, it would probably get all filled up with sand" "oh dear" said Yusei as he looked at Loretta & then began laughing.

After all Yusei's updates & been done it was time for him to get going, "Bye Loretta, good luck & be careful, i would never forgive myself if something happened to you" "Thank you Yusei but i will be fine...bye" she said waving as he rode off "I better get in touch with Atem to let him know im alright, i should have done it when i got here...{Atem...can you hear me}...I hope this works" after a few minutes of waiting "{Loretta...Are you ok...whats going on}" "{Oh Thank Ra...Its so good to hear your voice, yes im fine, im going out today to find Yusei's Father}" "{its nice hearing your voice too, you gave me a fright...i was asleep & you interrupted a dream i was having}" "{Sorry Atem, i will let you get back to sleep now, but just to let you know i will be home tomorrow}" "{I miss you Loretta...i cant wait to see your beautiful face again}" "{I miss you too, sweet dreams Atem}" Loretta thought before cutting the mind link off "Now back to business, i need to get over to New Domino city...I said i would find Yusei's Father & I never make a promise i cant keep"

New Domino City

Making her way around the city Loretta could see the amount of destruction with every corner she turned, i wasnt looking good, any chance she had of finding Yusei's Father alive was looking slim, she didnt want to let him down, she had a promise to keep & keep it she would. Just when she thought this couldnt get any worse a strange yet familiar sound hit her ears, she had heard this sound before the last time she visited but didnt get the chance to ask Yusei what it was, Sudden a loud voice was heard "Excuse Me Young Lady, what do you think you are doing here" turning around to see a man in a helmet sitting on a motorbike "oh im sorry sir, i was looking for someone" said Loretta innocently "you know your not ment to be on this side, dont you" " no i didnt because im not from around here" "Oh, what is your name" he said taking of his helmet & getting off his bike "My name is Loretta" "Oh its a pleasure to meet you, Im officer Trudge" putting his hand out, shaking his hand "the pleasure is all mine, Trudge" "Who might it be you be looking for?" "Someone by the name of Yukia Fudo?" "Oh yes i knew him, his son & I arent on very good terms" "Oh no i feared that...what do you mean knew?" "Didnt you know...there was an explosion at the Ener-D tower & yukia never made it out" he said putting his helmet to his chest "oh dear, poor Yusei, how come he didnt know about it" "Im sorry, i dont know..." "well...would you be able to tell me where the tower used to be, there must be something there i can take back to Yusei" "See the big pile of rubble at the end of this street, that is the old Ener-D tower"he said pointing "oh dear, what a mess, how am i going to find anything in that" "I think you will find that everything got destroyed, but good luck...by the way you can call me Tetsu, Trudge is a surname" "Oh...thank you Tetsu, see you" she said as she walked away "What am i going to tell Yusei now...I said i would bring his father back to him...aww poor Yusei hes going to be so heartbroken".

At the Ener-D tower

"Wow no wonder no one survived, this place is a mess, i have to start looking around for clues" walking around & climbing over the big pile of huge stone slabs, Loretta searched & searched, minutes passed turning into hours. Two hours later just as Loretta had given up hope & was about to start heading back something caught Loretta's eye, something sparkly, upon further investigation she found it was a dog tag necklace with a name faintly engraved on it "would you look at that" said Loretta to herself as she picked it up wiping the dust off "i better get back to Yusei"

~Time jump to back at the Satelite~

"This was a good find, i hope Yusei is at home...Hey Yusei...are you here" no reply, stepping through the door she found Yusei laying on his back fast asleep with something over his ears. Quietly walking up to him & removing said things from his ears she tried again "Hey Yusei,wake up ive got a surprise for you" "Hmm...ha...wha...Oh Loretta its you, how did you get on, did you find my dad" "Well um...no, Yusei...I ran into Officer Trudge & he told me a really sad story..." "Oh no..." said Yusei knowing what was coming "Hes dead isnt he..." his eyes welling up with tears "Im afraid so Yusei, im so sorry" she said sitting down on the edge of the bed pulling him into a hug "I search for as long as i could, but i did find something" pulling a necklace out of her jacket pocket "Hey, i recognize that" he said starting to cheer up "Can i see it please Loretta" "Sure, its yours" "Wow, i remember dad wearing this...Oh yes there it is" he said as he traced a finger over the engraved Y.U.K.I.A F. "Thank you so much Loretta, im sad i lost my Father but now i finally have something to remember him by" he said slipping the necklace over his head "Now i have my two favourite people closest to my heart" "Aww...that is beautiful Yusei...oh man i nearly forgot, i have to go back now" "Im going to miss you, Loretta" "I will miss you too, but i will come back to see you, next time you have a duel on just let me know & i will come & watch" "But how can i do that...?" "all you have to do is think about me first...then starting thinking of what you are going to say & i will hear you" "Wow...is that it?" "Yea i spoke to Atem this morning doing that exact same thing...wait till i get back then i will talk to you" "Do you need my help to get back" "Not this time" she said pulling the out of her pocket "Woah what is that" "Its what sent me here in the first place, but i better get going, Mahad is probably having a fit looking for it" she said with a giggle "Are you sure your going to be ok" "I will be fine...bye Yusei & thank you for everything" she said giving him a kiss on his cheek before she disappeared "Bye Loretta...I love you"

Back at the Palace

Atem was busy having an afternoon meeting, he was just finishing up talking & was about to dismiss everyone when a bright yellow light appeared in the middle of the room "Oh no now what" said Atem as he got up from his throne "Um...Pharaoh you might want to take back that statement" said Mahad as he could see the outline of a person started to appear. materializing infront of Atem & the royal court Loretta stood as everyone watch what she had left in starting to turn into a mid-length sapphire Blue dress & her boots disappearing & turning into black strapy sandals "Woah...wont be doing that for a while" she said to herself as she waited for the room to stop spinning, feeling someone touching her arm she relaxed to see that it was Atem "Loretta...Thank Ra your back...Are you ok" "Um...Yea..." she said still holding her head with one hand "Mahad...This belongs to you...sorry" "Oh...My , ive been looking everywhere for it" "How was Yusei, anyway" "hes been in abit of trouble but long story short I found out that his Father had been killed in a big explosion but managed to find something in the wreckage...A necklace with his Fathers name on it" "oh that is so sad, i feel bad for Yusei he's a nice guy" "Yes he is" said Loretta blushing "oh that reminds me...{Yusei...can you hear me...}" "Loretta, is everything ok..." "Im seeing if i can talk to Yusei through mindlink...no response yet"

In the Future

"{Yusei...can you hear me...}" waking up in fright "Loretta , where are you...oh thats right...{I'm here...how was your trip back}"

Back in Egypt

"{Hey...it works...yea it was good, not a trip i want to take too aften though}" she thought giggling "Can i talk to him Loretta" "sure Atem go for it" "{...Yusei...How are you...Its Atem..}" "{Man, im popular today , Hey Atem, im good, how's Egypt }" "{Good thank you, Loretta told us about your Father...I'm sorry for your loss, I know the pain your going through from my own experiences}" thought Atem as a tear came to his eye "{Thank you Atem, I wouldnt have found out what i did without Loretta's help}" "I'm so proud of you" said Atem as he put his hand on Loretta's shoulder "I did what i could to help a friend...{did you hear that}" "{I did...Thank you...Good night Loretta}" "{Good night Yusei}" thought both Loretta & Atem
