Ancient Eygpt, 3000 BC

The deserts of Egypt were extremely dark that night, but not as dark as Priestess Isis' vision. The priestess' body shook greatly as she tried to steady her breath.

"My friends, I have received a horrible vision." Sweat trickled down Isis' forehead.

"What is it, Isis?" Her Pharaoh questioned from his throne. His red eyes observed the whole room.

"You'll face a king's wrath." she said. "And you may not be able to survive."

"The 'king's' wrath?"

"I'm afraid yes."

Panic erupted. One or two guards screamed hysterically.

"No way!"

"You're joking, right?"

After an effort to silence them all, Isis spoke. "But it can be prevented by the help of the Supreme King."

MANY YEARS LATER...

Duel Academy, winter year 2018

Winter had arrived on Duel Academy, and the students just completed their first semester.

"Can't believe it's winter already." Tourey Shantori said to Keisha and Kyle, his twin friends while grinning.

2 years had passed since Tourey re-opened the door of darkness by mishap; he is now 13 years old. His previously short white hair now reached the middle of his back, he developed a little (umm...) muscles and intelligence, his gray eyes as grave as ever.

Chibi Partner, what are you smiling at? the young boy's yami questioned next to him. She looked like a 19-year-old young woman, with the same snowy hair, but tied neatly in low pigtails. Instead of solemnity, her gray eyes had a impish gaze. Her original name is Rane Samehada, but her male partner calls her his half.

"Nothing, My dear half." Tourey had a enormous sweatdrop on his head. "I'm just pleased that holiday will come soon. Can't wait for the last 2 hours."

SPONGEBOB STYLE: 2 HOURS LATER...

,ø¤º°º¤ø,

"School holiday starts now. You can go home." the intercom spoke. The voice belonged to Jaden Yuki.

Cheering that the days of hell are over, all the students tossed their books into the air and rushed to their dorms to pack and go home.

"See? I told you!" Tourey had a large grin.

Are you going to participate THAT project? Rane asked with confusion.

"Of course I will."

,ø¤º°º¤ø,

SPONGEBOB STYLE: UHH...

,ø¤º°º¤ø,

The Shantori Siblings: Kurrou, Minna, Ume, Sasuke, Mariposa "Maynard", Ashton, & Tourey were already in their tree house, chatting.

"How's life in Duel Academy?" Kurrou, the first-born asked.

As the youngest, Tourey took a deep breath and answered: "Normally fine, excluding the fact that there's a mean guy named Ryder who bullies me every day."

Minna, the first lady and second eldest, quizzed: "What did he do to you?"

"He called me weak and he would hit me every day."

"Jesus..." Maynard's soft face displayed unease. "Mr. Jaden wouldn't be content about this."

"No need to worry. I beat him through a deck out victory."

Ashton gushed his orange juice at Sasuke's face. Let's just say a fight would have ensued if Mrs. Shantori didn't call out "Who wants chocolate popcorn?" In her hands there was a bowl brimming with the promised popcorn, fresh and luscious. The siblings immediately devoured the popcorn while their mother watched them, being obliged to have a lovely family.

On the other hand however, Rane and Yami Bakura were having sort-of-philosophical tête-à-têtes in the Shadow Realm, which is also known as the Underworld or Hell.

"So, is your hikari hurt?" the ex-thief asked with his British accent.

"Nope. He's fine." Rane replied.

"How simply horrible."

"Would you stop being an asshole for once?!" Rane's gray eyes glared at Bakura's brown eyes. Rivals for a very long time, neither of them wants to surrender to another. Bakura thought hard of a comeback. The little girl is winning as always.

"You know my past, don't you?" Bakura used his final defense.

Rane's lips let out a hearty chuckle. "Just because you have a dark past doesn't mean you can oppose us, DOUCHEBAG King Bakura. At least I still feel a little remorse after killing someone, unlike you. No wonder that Being of Silence can defeat you."

"Don't you dare mention that damned title, Rane." Bakura was triggered now. "Being of Bullshit."

Rane slapped Bakura's bottom twice before leaving. "One of you will use that project to steal their souls, ain't I right? Sorry, not gonna happen."
