~*~Insert extremely funny and witty author's note here. ~*~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By around noon, Yami and Danielle had gotten their plans set. Danielle had booked the tickets for the next day and had written a note explaining why she would not be school until further notice. That should be enough. Their suitcases were packed and ready to go.
Yami looked over to see a very distressed Danielle. Her mind seemed to be somewhere else. 'She's been like that all morning.' When he was about to question her, the doorbell rang. Danielle went to answer it.
"Yugi? What are you doing here?"
"Well, I talked it over with Tea last night after you signed off. Yami?" The boy walked over to the spirit that was inside of him for a long time. "I've decided that you should take the deck with you to Egypt."
"What?"
"You don't know what you may run into there. Maybe you should even take the puzzle itself."
After considering this for a moment, Yami agreed.
"What time is your flight tomorrow?"
"About 7am."
"We'll all try to be there to wish you luck before school. I gotta get back to the shop."
"Yugi, wait a minute." Danielle walked up to him and handed him a key. "It's the key to my house. Use is whenever and look after it for me, ok?"
Yugi's eyes widened. "Sure! Bye guys!" He waved and walked out the door.
After he left, Yami spoke. "Would you like to tell me what's wrong?"
She turned to him. "What?"
"You haven't been yourself all morning. It's like you are worried about something."
"No, I'm fine. I'm just... thinking."
"About the past?"
"About a dream I had last night. It's nothing. Don't worry about it." She walked away to another part of the house for something.
~*~The next day.~*~
The luggage was checked, everything was set. Yami and Danielle stood at the gate ready to board. "Five more minutes, then we have to get on."
"They'll be here soon."
Right on cue, the Yugi Gang all came running towards the gate. "Sorry we were late. The traffic was a killer. Well, we arrive in time to say goodbye."
"Now Yugi, you have my cell phone number?"
"Yep."
"Good. And I have my laptop with me so you guys can keep us updated. We'll be back as soon as we get some answers."
"Bye guys!"
"Bye!"
Danielle and Yami boarded the plane and found their seats. Danielle turned to him. "Now Yami, I'm going to warn you right now. When we get up into the air, the pressure is gonna clog your ears."
"That's fine."
She looked at him for a moment. 'What are we doing? Going all the way to Egypt like this? What if it's all a waste of time? Or worse? What if we find something so horrible? What if we shouldn't know-'
She was cut off mid thought for Yami put his hand on hers, apparently sensing her worry. "Don't worry. This will all work out."
She smiled at him then leaned back in her seat.
Soon after, the plane took off for the ancient land of Egypt.
~*~Back at the airport~*~
A shadowy figure was standing behind one of those boards that tells if a plane is on time. "Perfect. It's all going perfectly. And now the real fun begins."
~*~Ummm... all I can find are coat hangers. Is that okay? My Cliff hangers are in the shop. I learned how to play today!!!! Yay! Yeah, that was random. No shout outs tonight. Too tired to write them. Sorry. Maybe next one. Ja ne!~*~
