Guess what Iboni?
Iboni: What is it Aibou?

You're in this fanfic!

Iboni: Really? Yay! Anyways, Jamie and I do not own Yugi, Solomon, the millennium puzzle, and a lot of the other stuff in here.

However, we DO own Jessie, Ginger, the millennium snake, and the kindness in Seto Kaiba. Since that's obviously fictional.

Iboni: On with the fic!

"NO. FREAKING. WAY!" Ginger shouted when I told her what happened.

"God, Ging. Keep it down. We're in school, cutting class, sitting in a bathroom. So shut up!" Jessie flipped her strawberry blonde hair behind her shoulder.

"Sorry, that is just way to cool! Can I meet him?"

"Maybe. I think I scared him off yesterday." Jessie bit her lip.

"I'll be nice."

"Fine, but I have to ask Seto if you can come over."

"YAY! Thank you thank you thank you! You're the best! I'm gonna meet Yugi!!!!!!" With that the bell rang, signaling a class change.

"Lunch. Cool. See ya Ginger. Don't get yourself into any trouble!" Jessie stood up from the floor and rolled out a few kinks in her back. She walked out of the bathroom and down a flight of stairs to her locker. As she dialed her combo in, she noticed Ushio walking straight towards her. Man, I really hope he doesn't beat girls up. Ushio leaned over her, tenderly, almost like he was flirting. He was.

"Hey, girl. You look very good today in leather." His face was in her ear, which completely pissed her off.

"Ushio. What do you want?" She spoke with ice in her tone. He twirled her around and slammed her into her locker. "Damn! What the hell?" Everyone in the hallway stopped moving to see what would happen to Jessie, the little 5'3" girl who defied Ushio.

"I'll tell you what, bitch." He slapped her across the face. "I hear you got a new neighbor coming HERE next week. What's his name? I think I'm gonna beat him because of your defiance."

"I wont tell you anything, you piece of crap!" He grabbed the front of her shirt and picked her up off of the ground.

"You really shouldn't have said that. Now, I think I'm going to have to beat you up now, and again when your little friend comes to school!" Jessie used a bit of self defense her black-belted friend Claire told her. She aimed for the crotch.

"AH! YOU LITTLE 20 DOLLAR WHORE! YOU AND YOUR NEIGHBOR DIE THE MINUTE HE STEPS FOOT IN THE SCHOOL! DAMN!" He fell down, letting Jessie go. She wanted to say something, but she knew better. He would be up in 10 seconds or so. He was unnatural. So she ran as fast as she could down three flights of stairs and into the 1st floor girls bathroom.

"Oh man, Yugi. What did I get you into?" She cried as she fell to the floor, tears running down her face.

***

At the end of the school day, she ran to her locker from the 1st floor bathroom, since she never left it, and dialed in her combo as fast as she could. She put random things into her backpack and ran out to the bus, much to the annoyance of everyone else in the hall. She jumped onto her bus and sat down in an aisle seat, putting on her hooded sweatshirt and pulling the hood around her face. When Ginger reached the seat, she said

"Who are you and what have you done to Jessie?"
"Shut up and get in the seat. You wont believe what happened on my way to lunch. And it's not good."

"What, your teacher caught you?"

"No, Ushio did." Ginger cringed. Everyone was afraid of Ushio, even the teachers. "He came to my locker, and he slammed me into it. I swore at him, and he slapped me." She pulled back the hood and Ginger saw a large slap mark across her face. "Then he started asking me about Yugi. When I told him I was never going to tell him and called him a piece of crap,"

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT FOR? ARE YOU SUICIDAL?" Ginger interrupted.

"I sure act it." A frown marred her face. "Anyways, he picked me up off the ground by my shirt and threatened to beat me and Yugi up, so I kicked him in the groin. He fell to the ground swearing at me and I ran like I was running from hell itself."

"Which you were. Man, what the hell are you and Yugi going to do?"

"I don't know, but having you come over is out of the question, because once he sees this" Jessie pointed at the slap. "He's never going to let me leave the house again."

"Good luck, because this is your stop."

"Bye." Jessie waved at her friend. She stepped off the bus, and as it drove away she was tackled by a mess of black, blonde, magenta and amethyst.

"JESSIE! Guess what? I get to go to school tomorrow instead of next week! Isn't that great!" He sat on top of her, smiling huge. As Jessie looked up at him, she felt her heart break. "Wait, what happened to your face?" Yugi asked, his large amethyst eyes filled with concern as he ran his hand ever so lightly across the slap mark. She grabbed his hand and held it close to her face as a few tears spilled out of her eyes.

"That's the reason that your life is going to be a living hell."

After explaining to Yugi what happened, they sadly walked down the road to their houses. A minute later Yugi looked up at Jessie and said.

"Thank you, Jessie. For trying to protect me, even though it screwed you over times a million." Jessie grabbed him and hugged him. "Jessie? Are you alright?" He looked up at Jessie to see she was sobbing uncontrollably.

"I'm not going to let anything happen to you Yugi!" She said through her tears. "I just wont! You're the kindest, sweetest person I've ever met and you don't deserve to be hurt because of a stupid mistake on my part. I will protect you!" Then she fell to the ground, crying into her hands. He knelt down next to her and put his arm around her. Once again he put his hand on her face.

"It'll all be alright Jessie. It will all be okay in the long run."

"-sniff- You think so?"

"Yeah. Now come on. Let's get you home." Yugi stood up and offered his hand out to her. She took it and pulled herself up.

"Well, it's time for me to go face the wrath of an over protective brother." Jessie sighed.

"Good luck. If he lets you out, come over to my house? I have something for you." Yugi reached up and tucked a strand of Jessie's hair behind her ear.

"See you." Jessie gave him one final hug and walked up her drive way. Seto was sitting on the porch. Aw, crap. I'm probably, like, 2 minutes late. She winced as she saw her brother jump up and run down the stairs. As he reached her, he wrapped her up in a huge hug.

"God! Jessie! I was so worried! You're a half an hour late! Where were you!? Did it have something to do with that new neighbor?" He pulled back to look at her. She drew in a huge breathe, since Seto's stranglehold was restricting her breathing.

"No, he didn't do anyth-"

"He did that, didn't he??" Seto interrupted, pointing at the slap mark Ushio left behind.

"NO! I just had some trouble with this guy at school. It's nothing."
"Oh, I think it's something. We are calling your school right now and getting this boy in trouble!"

"We can't, Seto."

"Why not?"

"It was Ushio." The senior stopped dead in his tracks. That name struck cold fear in the hearts of anyone who heard it.

"You. Got. In. A. Fight. With. Ushio."

"Yeah, but it was all him, he started it, and continued it, but I ended it."

"What did you do to end it?" His voice was monotone as he questioned her.

"I kicked him in the crotch and ran away."

"Damn it Jessie! There is no way I am letting you back into that school."
"NO! I am NOT running away again! If I do, he'll hurt him." Jessie's voice got really quiet as she reached the end of her proclamation.

"You're protecting a guy? Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?" Anger tinged his words.

"Yeah. But that's how it is. I'm going to help the Mouto's unpack. See you later Seto." Her voice was filled with iciness.

"No way! You are staying right here in this house! Consider yourself grounded." Jessie dropped her backpack and ran away. "Damn it Jessie." Seto muttered. He picked her bag up off the driveway and walked inside, rubbing tears out of his eyes. "It'll be useless to follow her now. She's so stubborn." Jessie walked up to the door of Yugi's house. She knocked softly and the door opened. It was Yugi.

"Come in." He whispered. "my grandpa is asleep, so be quiet and follow me." They quietly walked to Yugi's bedroom, where he went over to a shelf. On that shelf were two boxes, golden and adorned with the millennium eye. He pulled one of them down. "In here is what my grandfather calls the forgotten millennium item. It's a very strange item, because it looks like a snake. When put together, apparently it wraps around all the fingers on one of your hands, and then wraps up your arm." He opened the box. There were many almost identical snake like pieces that were shining and golden. One of them had the eye on it. Yugi picked it up. "This piece should go right here." He held it over her left ring finger. "According to grandpa, this was the jewelry of the pharaoh's sorceress. She was with him almost all of the time, and she gave her life to him during the last battle, and to save her he sealed her soul away into her favorite piece of jewelry, the Millennium Snake." Jessie looked at the box with a need in her eyes. It was calling out to her, like she was destined for it.

"That's so cool." She stated as she picked up a few pieces, all of which immediately latched together.

"My grandpa says pictures of the sorceress look very similar to you, so he thinks that you are destined to have it. That's why I'm giving it to you."
"Wow, Yugi. Thank you!" She picked the box up and started latching more pieces together.

"I was never able to solve that! How are you doing that?" Jessie looked at the growing form of a snake in her hands.

"I, don't know. The pieces are calling out to each other. They want me to solve them."

"Whoa." Jessie set all the pieces back into the box and gave Yugi a hug.

"Yugi! Are you here? Or are you a robber? You better not have anyone over without my permission!" Jessie looked at Yugi.

"I should go."

"Yeah" Jessie stood up and grabbed the box. Just as she reached the door, she turned back to him and kissed him on the forehead.

"Thanks." She walked out of the room as Yugi sat there, face turning red as a blush began to form. A moment later he heard the front door quietly close.

"Yeah Gramps!" Yugi yelled. "It's me!"

Jessie dashed across the road and up her driveway. She opened the unlocked door and quietly walked to her room and shut the door. She swore she heard faint sound of Seto crying in the room over. She fell down onto her bed and whispered to no one in particular.

"Why is this happening to me?"
