Danny suddenly jolted up again, screaming from his nightmare. It was the first one that wasn't about his future alter-self since he had fought against him. This one was different, like he had already lived it before. But how could it? He thought. The dream looked something like what Tucker had turned the school into some days ago. It looked like ancient Egypt, but what shocked Danny to his core was that the city was burning and there laid bodies all over the place. Some looked like his friends and a few like his classmates and family. Whatever had happened had left no survivors, other than him. Just like what happened with 'Him'. However, it then changed into showing him exactly what had happened. He had to watch the people die right in front of him. That is what caused him to scream blood horror. He knew he wasn't going back to sleep after that so he stood up to look out the window, remembering exactly how the city looked a few days ago. He couldn't believe it was only a few days since Tucker with the help of Hotep-Ra nearly took over the world or at least the city.
With the help of Yugi and the spirit of the Millennium Puzzle, Danny was able to hold Hotep-Ra and Tucker back and then soon with the help of Tucker after they got though his thick skull, was able to defeat Hotep-Ra and free the school and city. However Danny couldn't help but feel at home in that ancient Egypt city that Hotep-Ra had made with the sphinx and pyramids towering over the other buildings including the palace. It was like home to him and he hated to see it go. Danny suddenly shook his head to clear his thoughts. What am I thinking? Amity has always been my home and I have never been to Egypt anytime during my life. However, wearing those Egyptian clothes did feel good and it felt better than any clothes he wore. Mmm, I wonder…With that Danny walked over to his closet and flung the door open looking for something very specific. In the back on his mind, he didn't think why his parents hadn't heard him or why Jazz hadn't came in to check on him yet like they always did when he had a nightmare.
Yugi, Joey, and Tristan were waiting for Danny, Tucker, Sam and Tea at the corner near their homes and Yugi's grandpa's game shop. Tristan looked at his watch again, "Man, where are those guys?"
"I'm sure they'll be here soon." Yugi said trying to make peace with his friends, watching for them. "I hope so," Joey muttered. Suddenly, Yugi saw Tucker, Sam and Tea heading their way. "See, I told you so." He smiled at Tristan. "What took you guys?" Joey asked. "Sorry, guys." Tea said. "Ok, that's weird. Where's Danny?" Sam asked. "I tried calling him, he didn't answer." Tucker said. "How much you bet it was another ghost?" Joey laughed. Tristan shook his head, but said "About five bucks."
"You're on." Joey said as they shook hands. Soon, Sam noticed someone heading their way. "Hey, there he is. Danny!" Everyone turned to see Danny walking up to them. However, he walked right by them.
"Hey!" Sam yelled running up to him. Soon, she nudged his shoulder to get his attention. However, that caused him to jump up in the air shocked and immediately looked around wondering who did that. "Whoa, jumpy today" Sam asked. "Huh, oh right. Sorry, Sam" Danny said rubbing his neck nervously. "What's wrong with you?" Tristan asked "Oh, nothing. Just had a bad dream"
"About him" Tea asked. Yugi and his friends had known Danny and his friends since they were in the first grade and knew everything about each other. "Actually not this time, but still it was weird." Danny sighed. "What do you mean?" Joey asked. "Well…Remember when Hotep-Ra and Tucker took the school back to Egyptian times?" Danny asked. "Yeah, why" Joey asked. "My dream looked like Egypt, but there were bodies everywhere, some of them look like you guys…" His voice growing lower and lower. "Whoa…"
"Any reason why?" Tucker asked suddenly.
Danny shook his head as Sam walked up to him, "Are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." Danny said, but something about his tone told her otherwise. "Come on, we better get going." Danny continued. However, by moving so quickly, Sam caught the sight of two golden bracelets on his arms. He was too far away from them for her to talk about them though when she did notice them. They had to run after him to not get left behind. Sam was still confused why he was wearing those bracelets but decided to leave him alone about it and ask when he wasn't so defensive. Soon, they arrived at the school minutes before the warning bell went off and barely entered their first period in time. "Why do we always do this?" Tristan asked Joey. "I don't know man." He said as they both fall to the ground exhausted. The rest of the day went by slowly, but soon it hit lunch and once again Yugi and Danny were dueling against one another. "Mmm, good move," Danny said when Yugi played 'Blackland Fire Dragon' and destroyed his face up card 'Gravekeeper's Spy.'
Yugi smiled. "But take this," Danny said as he flipped over his trap card 'Attack and Receive' the second one he had played during the duel. Yugi suddenly lost 1000 life points, losing the duel. Yugi groaned and slammed his head on the table. Danny crossed his arms and smiled smugly at him. "How come he was able to defeat Pegasus and Kaiba but no matter what he can't beat you?" Joey asked. Danny just shrugged. "Hey, it isn't just Yug', none of us can beat him." Tristan said. During the whole Pegasus and Duelist Kingdom competition, Danny didn't have a deck nor did Tristan, Sam, or Tucker but after watching Yugi, Joey, and Tea they found the game interesting and started to create their own decks on the island. Danny created a Spellcaster/warrior deck similar to Yugi's. Tristan created a warrior deck similar to Joey's. Tucker created a machine deck similar to Bandit Keith's and Sam created a zombie and Fiend deck that included many ghosts' cards in it, which caused Danny to shiver when he had battled against it.
"Perhaps I'm just that good?" Danny asked. Everyone looked at him not buying and were about to ask about it, but then Sam asked "Why are you wearing those things anyway," pointing to the golden bracelets on both of his arms. "Is there something wrong with them?" Danny asked nervously. "No, just wondering." Sam asked. "I don't know, just wanted to wear them again. I had them since I was a child." Danny said. "And they still fit you after all these years?" Tea asked. "Yeah, why" Danny asked confused. "No reason," Tea said. Yugi looked at them and asked "Where do your parents find them," looking at them. "They never told me, but yeah I have noticed the Egyptian writing and the Udjat on them." Danny said looking at the bracelets. They were solid gold in color and at the edges were lines of Egyptian hieroglyphics, that Danny had no idea what they said. In the middle of them was the Udjat similar to the one on all the millennium items. "Whoa, they almost looks like a millennium item," Tristan said suddenly to them.
"They do?" Danny asked confused, everyone face-faulted at that, like normal Danny was completely clueless. Suddenly, the bell ring and after gathering up their decks, they all headed to Mr. Lancer's English class. However, when they entered they were shocked. "We're going back to the museum?" Danny asked shocked. "Yes, Mr. Fenton, we were not able to finish the Egyptian section of it and I want to go back before the weekend." They all face-faulted at that, but knew they could do nothing to change Lancer's mind. Soon, the class boarded the bus and headed to the museum. However, during the ride the spirit of the Millennium Puzzle was talking with Yugi. What do you mean, Spirit? I mean there is familiar about those bracelets Danny has, but I'm not so sure. I wish we knew more about your past, As do I, but my memory is clouded and my days as the Pharaoh are lost including anything about those bracelets. Well, whatever happens, we'll be there and we'll deal with it together, ok? However, that didn't help the spirit ease his worry that something was about to happen.
