~*~Just remembered I forgot the disclaimer: The only thing/person I own are my own characters. I don't own any of the regular "Yu-Gi-Oh!" characters… though Yami is pretty hot. *slaps self* Alright then, let's get on with it…~*~

"blah blah" = talking

'blah blah' = thinking

(blah blah) = my 2 or more cents. Yes I do it just to annoy you all.

~Umm… Just a warning. I have most of this written out already. It was posted on Fanfiction.net before. Read my profile to understand what happened. Also, if you really like it so far, you'll be reading this story for awhile. As of now, I have 134 chapters written for this. Scary, isn't it? And to think you're only on chapter 2… wow. ::Sees a lot of people run away:: GOMEN!!! Just thought you should know you'll be reading this a long time! If you guys leave a lot of reviews, I'll post a few chapters at a time… up to the reviews. Okay! On with the next chapter!

"I was taught when I was very little how to play Duel Monsters. My father taught me. He said I had the makings of a champion. That never concerned me, for you see, I fell in love with music. I only duel now if my life or friends depend on it. I may be able to help even you in your duels."

Yugi just sat there puzzled. "So why don't you duel Pegasus yourself?"

Danielle just shook her head. "I am forbidden to unless I have 20 star chips!"

"20 STAR CHIPS?!?"

"He wants to keep me here, break my spirit or something. But if I travel with you and help you along the way, technically I'm not fighting."

Yugi sat back. This was a lot to absorb. 'I wonder, what is this power she speaks of?'

Danielle looked him over and smiled. "You're wondering about the power, aren't you? To be honest, I'm not so sure about it myself. All I know really is that it's ancient and not something to be tossed about lightly. My father said that it occurs in the women of our family every one hundred years. I'm still learning about it."

She sat back and looked at him. He could almost feel her staring into his very soul. 'Maybe she could help me save my grandpa. All I know is Pegasus must be stopped and to do that, I need all the help I can get.' "Why don't we go over to the guys and see what they say?"

"Sure, why doesn't she come along? What harm could it do?"

Yugi whirled around and was face to face with Joey. "What are you doing?!?"

"Just makin sure you don't mess up there buddy. Hehe."

Danielle slowly got up. "Well, I'm sorry to say we must leave quickly if this is to work. Once Pegasus realizes I'm gone, he'll send someone after us. The more space we place between us the better."

Both boys nod.

~*~Inside YuGi's mind~*~

"What do you think spirit? What do you sense?"

Yami stepped forward. "I feel a strong power from her. And also a strange bond. It would be wise to bring her along. She seems a lot wiser then she is letting on."

"I have a feeling something big is going to happen."

"As do I. As do I."
